It was the leaf carried by Elder Ghost. To be honest, although this answer was a little abrupt, it was not too surprising after thinking about it carefully. As the last leader of the Devil Cult who had the power to rally people, Elder Ghost undoubtedly controlled the last resources of the Devil Cult, including those unspeakable secrets.
The shards of the Tree of God to the Evil Sect was the most sacred holy object, just that after thousands of years of changes in the world, the four shards had also scattered. Lu Chen knew that three of the shards' exact whereabouts were no longer in the hands of the Evil Sect people, then the last leaf was still in the Evil Sect, still hidden in Elder Ghost's hands, it was actually a very logical thing.
However, it seemed to have benefited Perfected Lord Tianlan. He followed Lu Chen to the underground city and met Elder Ghost. He killed this old rival who had been fighting with him for decades and took a piece of "leaf"!
Even Lu Chen could not help but marvel at the luck of this damn baldy. He muttered in his heart, "Is this the luck of the current number one?" It was originally extremely difficult to kill Elder Ghost and find that piece of leaf. In the end, Perfected Lord Tianlan only followed him to the underground city and settled everything in one go.
If it was not for the fact that Lu Chen knew that he was the one who first encountered those strange things in the underground city and that he was the one who brought Perfected Lord Tianlan down, he would really suspect whether all of this was a conspiracy planned by Perfected Lord Tianlan himself. Even when Perfected Lord Tianlan sent him back to the surface, it was also his intention to kill and rob.
In any case, everything was in the past now, and it was a foregone conclusion. Lu Chen had nothing more to say. In any case, at least for now, this person before him was truly unparalleled in the world, unstoppable, and even the heavens were on his side. Although this guy was a lunatic, but a lunatic who was lucky and capable …
Lu Chen felt a little pain in his teeth again.
"Now we just have to wait for the last Blood Sea Anomaly to appear in the sky. When that time comes, it will be the moment when the Blood Moon's aura reaches its peak and also the time when our plan starts to be implemented." It seemed that Perfected Lord Tianlan had complete trust in Lu Chen, even though Lu Chen himself was surprised by this kind of treatment. However, he had never been able to figure out what Perfected Lord Tianlan was thinking, so he could only let nature take its course.
But to be honest, who in the world could really see through Perfected Lord Tianlan?
"Blood Moon? The last time the blood sea phenomenon will appear? " Although Lu Chen had not heard the complete so-called plan from Perfected Lord Tianlan, he still quickly and keenly grasped a few key points in the damn baldy's words.
Just as he was about to ask in detail, Perfected Lord Tianlan suddenly frowned as if he had thought of something. He muttered to himself, "Hmm, that's not right."
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. He saw Perfected Lord Tianlan's hesitation and vigilance at this moment, which was rare for him. He would not act like this unless there was a major event. Lu Chen could not help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan was silent for a moment. His gaze was deep as he said slowly, "I thought of something. Some time ago, I once asked Perfected Lord Gu Yue of Starry Hall to divine the whereabouts of the four pieces of the divine tree of the Devil Cult. He also performed his divination very carefully and finally told me that there is only one piece in this immortal city. The whereabouts of the other three pieces are unknown. "
Lu Chen's heart shook, but he still maintained his composure on the surface. After a moment, he asked softly, "When exactly did he do the divination? Could it be that someone else brought the fragment to the Immortal City after he did the divination?"
Perfected Lord Tianlan shook his head slowly. The glimmer in the depths of his eyes was dim and difficult to understand. He said, "Now it seems that from the beginning, there were at least two of the four pieces of leaves in this immortal city. Elder Tie Hu has one, Elder Gui has another. There are also branches and seeds. It's hard to say if we don't know about it now, but he should have lied to me. "
Did Perfected Lord Gu Yue lie to Perfected Lord Tianlan? Why did he lie?
This was a simple question but the hidden matter was very big. The impact might be even bigger. Lu Chen didn't dare to say more. But now, he actually didn't care about Perfected Lord Gu Yue's intentions. Because he suddenly thought of another thing: Perfected Lord Tianlan seemed to be determined to get these pieces of the Devil Cult's divine weapon. But other than the two pieces of leaves, the remaining two pieces, namely the branches and seeds, were also in this immortal city.
The seeds were right in front of him, on Lu Chen's body. The branches were at White Lotus's side.
Everything was actually under his nose. If this secret was discovered by Perfected Lord Tianlan … Lu Chen suddenly felt that not only did he have a toothache, but even his breathing started to become a little difficult.
Perfected Lord Tianlan's expression looked a little solemn. He walked back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back. After a while, he turned his head and said to Lu Chen, "This matter has a great impact. We can't treat it lightly. I still have to go and deal with it."
With that, he turned and walked out of the hall.
Lu Chen subconsciously wanted to say something to him, but he quickly held back. There were some things that couldn't be explained. Even if it was the truth, if others didn't believe it, everything would be as good as nothing and the truth would become false.
Perfected Lord Tianlan's figure quickly disappeared outside the hall. Lu Chen slowly walked out. When the sunlight shone on him, he slightly narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky.
The world was bright and the sky was high and wide. There was not a bit of hostility or any trace of the Blood Sea. Looking at the sky in front of him, it was simply impossible to imagine that it would be covered by the strange Blood Sea phenomenon.
When the Blood Sea phenomenon appeared again, something would definitely happen, right?
Lu Chen didn't have the intention to ask Perfected Lord Tianlan immediately. At least from the looks of it, Perfected Lord Tianlan would tell him sooner or later. But now, he had a more important and urgent matter in front of him.
Lu Chen calmed his mind and then strode in the direction of the mountain.
Earlier, Old Ma had sent someone to tell him that White Lotus was indeed still alive and that he had dug her out from the ruins of that house. Because of the subtle atmosphere on Sky Dragon Mountain, it was indeed not suitable for White Lotus to continue staying on the mountain. Otherwise, who knew whether some greedy guy would run out and kill this girl and then ask for credit from Perfected Lord Tianlan.
Old Ma brought White Lotus to the house next to the Horse Washing Bridge at the foot of the mountain. Lu Chen decided to go and see her as soon as possible. Of course, this was just an excuse. In his heart, an originally unimportant matter had now become an urgent matter.
The branch necklace still hanging on White Lotus's neck suddenly became a very troublesome thing.
If the damn baldy found this thing and came back to ask Lu Chen why he didn't tell him, it would be hard for Lu Chen to explain. Even if he didn't admit that he had seen it, would White Lotus stab him in the back and tell the damn baldy that she had seen this branch before?
Lu Chen felt that it was hard for the damn baldy not to be suspicious given how much importance he attached to the fragment of the Devil Cult's sacred tree. What he didn't want to lose now was the damn baldy's trust in him. He had a vague feeling that in the upcoming upheaval, perhaps the damn baldy's trust was his biggest reliance.
But when he walked quickly down the mountain, he was still a little upset. It was really not easy to deal with White Lotus. That girl seemed to never be really controlled by anyone. How could he make her completely, reliably, and truly shut up?
Dead people?
As Lu Chen walked in silence, this thought flashed through his mind. Then he was shocked, but then he found that his heart was actually calm. For him, perhaps life and death had long been a numb, cold, and hard thing.
He seemed to have really lost the feelings that should have been warm.
