To be fair, considering Zuo Xiaoduo's current situation, position, and ability, it was completely reasonable and understandable that he chose not to save Zhan Xuejun.
As long as one was not too pretentious, they would not find the right to criticize Zuo Xiaoduo.
Zuo Xiaoduo's choice was not to erase his conscience, but to size up the situation. If he acted rashly, there was a 99% chance that he would not be able to save Zhan Xuejun, and he would lose his life instead!
And now, he was safe.
Using one's life to gamble on a minuscule possibility might happen to a brave man, but it definitely shouldn't happen to someone like Zuo Xiao Duo who was very smart and was afraid of death. Even if he asked his heart, he had a clear conscience!
But for some reason, the more he thought about it, the more reasons he desperately looked for to retreat. Zuo Xiaoduo couldn't help but have another thought in his mind.
It was like a flame that suddenly appeared, and then a small fire started to burn the prairie.
"There is still a chance!"
"As long as I am fast enough, the chance is not necessarily slim!"
"As long as I see the gap and seize the opportunity, I still have a chance to save Zhan Xuejun! Then, as long as I hide in the Tower of Destruction, no one will be able to find me. The premise of all this is that I am fast enough and seize the opportunity well! "
"I can't do this and I can't do that. Seeing my friend, my brother's wife, being harmed like this, but I still have to find all kinds of reasons to convince myself. Even if it's not erasing my conscience, it's burying my conscience. How can I not feel guilty … If you don't save her when she is in danger, why do you practice martial arts? Is it just to train your body? "
"Every time you see Xiang Chong in the future, how will you feel?"
"Even if you don't know him, you can't just watch your fellow Astral Souls being harmed by the alien race, let alone your close friends and family."
"The most basic purpose of practicing martial arts is to protect your family and your country. But today, if your parents or Nian Mao were tied up, would you just turn around and leave indifferently knowing that you would die? Didn't he still have to charge forward bravely without hesitation and risk his life to save her? Why are you so terrified when it's someone else? Why are you finding all sorts of excuses? "
"There are ten thousand excuses to shirk the responsibility, but there is only one reason to move forward!"
"You have a trump card."
"You have a chance of success."
"You might not die even if you go."
"But if you don't do it, in this life, every time you think about it, will you be able to feel at ease? Can you really have a clear conscience? "
"Why are you cultivating?"
"Is the purpose of training to weigh the pros and cons and avoid the cons?"
In a short period of time, Zuo Xiaoduo had already gone through many thoughts.
In the hall, the six elders of the Devil Tribe were still drinking tea and chatting with the two Great Sorcerers and Lei Changtian. They were so focused that they didn't dare to be careless and didn't pay attention to anything else.
The Devil Tribe had been living in seclusion for a long time. Although the elders and the upper echelons of the Devil Tribe had once roamed the other territories of the Umno Alliance for a period of time after their cultivation had reached a certain level, they didn't go out to train for long.
After all, they had the teachings of their ancestors and the alliance with the Wu people.
So in terms of jianghu experience, they could only be considered average.
But when it came to the six elders or the experts above the Sky Realm, they had reached the pinnacle of cultivation in this world and were enough to make up for their lack of experience.
The upper echelons of the Devil Tribe didn't care at all about the dirty and smelly Devil that Mo Shijiu had kicked in.
After all, he had been kicked in by Mo Shijiu and the others.
And this kind of thing, similar situations, had happened too many times over the years, so much so that it made them numb.
The Devil Tribe was all boorish and impulsive. It wasn't that the elders didn't have a headache, but that they had been troubled for too long and had long gotten used to these boorishness.
The matter had already been taken care of, and there were still important guests here, so they had to treat them with care. If they cared about some minor details, it would be suspicious and demeaning.
The guard of the Devil Tribe walked over with a mace on his shoulder. Pinching his nose, he looked at Zuo Xiaoduo and said in a muffled voice, "You idiot, did you fall into a latrine pit and just crawled out … Why are you so smelly …"
With one hand covering his nose, the guard stretched out the other trembling hand and extended the mace in his hand. He was about to pick up Zuo Xiaoduo and throw him out. The disdain of the Devil Tribe was obvious and undisguised.
As long as Zuo Xiaoduo was thrown out by the mace, at least he wouldn't be discovered and he would be safe.
But!
At this moment, Zuo Xiaoduo, who had been lying on the ground like a dead fish, suddenly shot up like a rocket!
At this moment, Zuo Xiaoduo's speed directly soared to the limit of his body, or even exceeded it. Streaks of shadows flashed at extreme speed. Before the guard of the Devil Tribe could react, Zuo Xiaoduo's figure had already rushed to the altar that was three hundred meters high. Silently, he held the sledgehammer in his hand and swung it in a circle!
Untie the rope?
Zuo Xiaoduo would never do such a lowly thing!
Because it would take a lot of time. The moment Zuo Xiaoduo burst out, he had already thought of a comprehensive plan.
He had to use the shortest time to complete this rescue operation, and the simplest rescue plan was —
He smashed the flagpole with his hammer and took away everything that was connected to it!
For example, Zhan Xuejun was currently connected to the flagpole by a rope!
Therefore, when he reached a certain height, he had already raised the sledgehammer!
This time, he directly used the fire attribute power of the Elemental Fire Art!
Fierce and violent, insufferably arrogant, pressing forward with indomitable will.
The Ninety-Nine Kitty Hammer stirred up a black and white whirlwind. The whirlwind was wrapped in a fiery red power. It was as if a radiant sun had suddenly appeared in the sky!
An abnormally hot aura suddenly filled the entire Devil Soul Castle!
…
Around the altar of the Devil Soul Castle, there were 108 small houses built. The 108 Devil Tribe experts each occupied one of them. They were all sitting cross-legged, their hands forming strange seals as they went about their own business.
Streaks of Devil Qi soared into the sky. At the beginning, it was extremely dense, but it slowly faded and flew towards the altar.
All of the Devil Qi, after making a circle around the altar, converged into one, and then passed through Zhan Xuejun's body!
This passing through would create a transparent bloody hole on Zhan Xuejun's body, but this wound would heal immediately.
However, even if the wound would heal, because of the Blood Essence that was carried out by the strike, most of it would dissipate in the air, but a small portion of it would quietly merge into the air.
And as the wisps of Blood Essence continued to merge, the Devil Cloud in the air was turbulent, growing at an almost imperceptible rate.
If one was here a few days ago, they would be able to directly observe that the Devil Cloud in the air today was at least twice as dense as six or seven days ago. The results were immediate and remarkable.
And the faint whispers hidden in the Devil Cloud, the traces of extremely evil Qi, as well as the extremely abundant bloodthirsty and murderous aura, were about to take shape.
Seeing this scene, the one hundred and eight Devil Monarchs who were working together were indescribably excited.
Even if they did this personally, they did not expect that this time, capturing this human girl would actually bring such a huge harvest!
"The bloodline of the War God, the blood of a martyr, the heart of loyalty, the soul of a virgin!"
This was the necessary condition to summon the Devil Ancestor!
And the most basic result of this ritual was … to let the Devil Ancestor feel the current position!
He could shoot in the boundless starry sky, knowing where to go and return!
And the source of all this was the preparation that the Devil Ancestor had set up when he was traveling the human world. He had set up more than seven hundred so-called 'Immortal Fate' with the order of fate, just so that one day, when the Devil Ancestor was completely sealed in the Devil Spirit Forest, he could go out.
As long as one family activated the Immortal Fate ritual, they would achieve the fundamental opportunity to summon the Devil Ancestor again, and it would no longer be up to them to break the restriction and go out by themselves.
They would be passive!
And the follow-up of the 'Immortal Fate' was … after the Devil Ancestor went out, they would eat that family and even the surrounding villages and counties.
Then, the Devil Ancestor would transform into those people, replace them, and gradually nibble away, slowly growing stronger …
This was a plan that had been prepared for a long time!
And since The Flood Witch had left the Devil Spirit Forest as a habitat for the Devil Race when the Wu people returned, she had set up a special rule for the Devil Race.
They could no longer enter the human world, whether it was the World of the Umno Alliance, the Dao League, or the World of Astral Souls!
Coincidentally, the Devil Race also had a prophecy left by their ancestors, and they were also not allowed to go out.
And because of this, the two sides had reached an agreement. The higher-ups of the Devil Race gathered their people and settled in the Devil Spirit Forest.
Countless years had passed, and as the number of Devil Race's Devil population increased, their vitality gradually recovered, and the higher-ups of the Devil Race naturally thought more and more about the preparations of the past, hoping that the 'Immortal Fate' would be activated.
But it was a pity that after waiting for so long, there was only one family, and the connecting passage was cut off by that extremely fierce woman. She paid the price of one of her own arms to cut off the passage that the Devil Race used to reach the human world on the other side!
How could the Devil Race not be angry? So many years of expectation, so many years of painstaking effort, but it was cut off by a little girl like you!
That was why the Great Elder of the Demon Race had said, "She herself has incurred the wrath of our race, so she will naturally receive her retribution." It wasn't a groundless statement, but a statement that he truly hated her!
And when the Devil Race involved saw that things were not going well, and was sure that he could not get out, he used the last of his strength to capture Zhan Xuejun. But it was a different story.
The reason why it was a different story was because the subsequent development of the matter was completely different from the original intention —
The original intention of the Devil Race involved capturing Zhan Xuejun was that Zhan Xuejun had ruined his plan, so he naturally wanted to take revenge. But when he really captured Zhan Xuejun, he was surprised to find that … damn, he had caught a treasure!
