Zhao Xuanyang was dead.
Jiang Wang stood in front of the corpse.
Song Wanxi had removed all the restraints Zhao Xuanyang had placed on him with a simple swipe of her finger.
Not even a peerless Tianjiao like Zhao Xuanyang could surpass the gap between a True Demon and a God's Descent cultivator.
Perhaps only the number one God's Descent cultivators like Chongxuan and Chu Liang were qualified to fight against a True Demon.
Of course, with Jiang Wang's current strength, he wasn't qualified to speculate on that level of confrontation.
Zhao Xuanyang's eyes were open.
They were very open.
He seemed to be questioning Jiang Wang. "Wow, you tricked me."
But he couldn't ask any more questions.
Tianjiao was such a dazzling place, and such a glorious reputation, but once he died, it would all vanish into thin air.
Zhao Xuanyang thought that Jiang Wang had invited a True Demon from the Desolate Graveyard, but in fact, this was just a Blood Puppet.
A True Demon had consciousness, while a Blood Puppet had no.
Therefore, Jiang Wang was the only one left in the Ancient Demon Cave at the bottom of the lava lake who still had consciousness.
He could finally reveal his true feelings.
Jiang Wang looked at the corpse and said slowly, "Maybe I should ask about your last wish. But I don't have your strength. I don't have the right to ask.
"Perhaps I should also say sorry. But I killed you to protect myself. I didn't do you wrong. "
Jiang Wang was silent for a moment, then finally reached out and closed Zhao Xuanyang's eyes. "That's all."
Zhao Xuanyang had taken him to hide here, without anyone knowing. Every time he went out to collect information, he did it quickly and discreetly.
He did it so that Ku Juecha wouldn't notice.
Therefore, no matter how big the world was, only he knew his current situation.
At this moment, only Song Wanxi stood to the side, watching this special farewell.
Jiang Wang didn't leave immediately.
According to Zhao Xuanyang's message, even Qi Chumu was supporting him. After killing Zhao Xuanyang, he could fly freely in the sky.
But at this moment, he couldn't go out.
At this time, the whole world was paying attention to the outcome of Zhao Xuanyang's escort. Qi and Jing seemed to have directly confronted each other, their swords drawn.
If he left the Ancient Devil's Cave now, it would be impossible for him to sneak back to Qi.
For the time being, this place was actually quite safe.
Everyone in the world thought that Zhao Xuanyang was still holding him captive somewhere, or that he had secretly arrived at Mount Yujing.
The people of Jing Country wouldn't be wary of him, and the people of other powers were waiting for the final result.
Qi's men were looking for him, but they were all stopped by Jing Guo. Ku Jue was looking for him, but the Xuankong Temple had already summoned him back.
In an environment like the Ancient Devil's Cave, which was completely different from the Modern World's Laws, one couldn't be detected, and one's life and death couldn't be controlled.
Jiang Wang decided to cultivate in the Ancient Devil Cave for a while.
He didn't even go out to take a look at the situation outside or leave the Devil's Den for a short while to connect to the Great Illusionary Realm to gather some information. He didn't have Zhao Xuanyang's abilities, so he might be discovered as soon as he left the cave.
Even if he found out that what he was experiencing was suffering, it might not be a good thing.
The Jing Country allowed Ku Jue to chase after Zhao Xuanyang, but that didn't mean that they would sit and watch as Ku Jue took him away. Especially since Zhao Xuanyang had disappeared in the Tianjiao of the Jing Country!
Jiang Wang had always been a very decisive person, and once he made a decision, he wouldn't hesitate.
Just as he was about to find a place to sit down and cultivate, his heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at Song Wanxi.
"You're leaving?" he asked.
Song Wanxi looked at him, but didn't say anything. There was no emotion in that pair of beautiful, blood-red eyes.
As the puppet master of this Blood Puppet True Demon, he had absolute control over it, and could also sense her feelings to a certain extent.
At this moment, he could feel an ancient, faraway place calling out to this True Demon's body.
It was a …
Jiang Wang immediately cut off his thoughts of further understanding. Trying to understand the Infinite World Desolate Tomb now was tantamount to suicide.
"It's okay, you can leave when the time is up. I can handle it myself," Jiang Wang said.
Even though the Blood Puppet True Demon was only acting on instinct, Jiang Wang still talked to her.
After these few days of pursuit, the pressure in his heart had never dissipated.
The feeling of being the enemy of the entire world was something that those who had never experienced before could not understand. Being condemned by thousands of people still ended without a cause. Being despised by thousands of people, so what?
With a letter from the Jing Country's Mirror World Platform, the entire world thought that Jiang Wang was possessed. Being hunted down by the gods in Tianjiao, the public trial at Mount Yujing … that kind of terrifying pressure was unimaginable.
The resulting friction between the Hegemonic States was even more crushing to the point that he couldn't breathe.
Even now, he still couldn't escape from this huge whirlpool.
Talking to the Blood Puppet True Demon was an instinctive way of relieving pressure.
Even if he knew that the other party couldn't understand and wouldn't respond.
But after all, in a sense, she was "one of us."
In the cave, the pitch-black whirlpool spun silently.
Jiang Wang used the God's Print Technique to leave a trace of his consciousness on Song Wanxi's body.
This God's Print Technique was taught to him by Zhuang Chengqian when he was disguised as Jiang Yan. After Yin Guan's inspection and elimination of hidden dangers, it was completed using the Dao Demonstration Platform. Jiang Wang used this technique to establish a very close connection with Dugu Xiao, helping her to increase her battle strength and giving her the possibility of advancing further.
Using it on Song Wanxi was to deepen the connection beyond the Blood Puppet Mark.
This time, when he called for Song Wanxi, she rushed here as soon as she received the call. Even with the speed of a True Demon and knowing the exact location, it took her a full three days to find the right place to descend into the Ancient Devil's Cave.
If one day, Song Wanxi could arrive at his call, that would mean that in all the Ancient Devil's Caves in the Modern World, Jiang Wang could summon a True Demon level fighter at any time. He would be able to sweep through anyone below the Immortal level. Although he couldn't see the light of day and had many limitations, it was a great source of confidence.
As for taking her out of the Devil's Cave like Zhuang Chengqian originally planned … As a Perfected Person, Zhuang Chengqian could create a suitable environment for the Blood Puppet True Demon to a certain extent, or help her conceal her True Demon aura. However, Jiang Wang couldn't do that.
Even this God's Print Technique was thanks to Zhuang Chengqian.
Song Wanxi naturally didn't know what Jiang Wang was thinking. She only followed her instincts and walked toward the pitch-black whirlpool under the call of the Ten Thousand Worlds Desolate Tomb.
"Take him with you." Jiang Wang summoned a gust of wind and brought Zhao Xuanyang's corpse to Song Wanxi.
Zhao Xuanyang's most precious sword, jade, and Eight Trigrams Gate had all been destroyed. His peerless cultivation method couldn't be captured. Jiang Wang didn't have any intention of looting the corpse. After Song Wanxi brought it to the Ten Thousand Worlds Desolate Tomb, even Jing Guo wouldn't be able to find any traces.
Song Wanxi took it and slowly sank into the pitch-black whirlpool.
Then, the whirlpool disappeared without a trace.
It was as if nothing had happened.
A peerless Tianjiao had been erased from the Modern World just like that.
Jiang Wang couldn't even sense Song Wanxi's existence anymore. If he wanted to see Song Wanxi, he could only call out again. However, he didn't know when Song Wanxi would respond.
After all, even with the power of a True Demon and the location provided by the Puppet Master, it wasn't easy to cross worlds and come here.
The lightless Ancient Devil's Cave fell into a deathly silence once again.
Even the only person who could talk, Song Wanxi, had left.
Jiang Wang silently sat back down on the millstone-like boulder. Without a word, he sank into the Inner Mansion and continued his cultivation.
Perhaps everything would come to naught, but at least his current efforts were not in vain.
However, what he didn't notice was …
Just as he closed his eyes and entered a state of cultivation.
At the place where the pitch-black whirlpool disappeared, a ripple silently spread …
It was as if an eye had opened in the lightless darkness!
