Ziling's expression was grave.
He sighed helplessly.
"What in the world happened?"
Looking at the grave expression on Ziling's face, Long Ao was almost certain that nothing had happened to Cang Lin. Otherwise, Ziling wouldn't be acting like this.
If nothing had happened to Cang Lin, then what had happened?
"Long Ao, we're in big trouble this time."
Long Ao didn't say anything this time. He just looked quietly at Ziling.
Ziling was very different now.
"Of the twelve Rulers of the Stars, apart from the God-Diviner himself who doesn't need to refine the primal chaos tablets, the eleven of us must refine the tablets and become Rulers of the Stars again."
He nodded.
Regarding this point, how could Long Ao not know?
Even so, what could they do?
In order to obtain the power of primal chaos, the God-Diviner had gone to great lengths to persuade the other Rulers of the Stars. In the end, however, not only had they failed to obtain the power of primal chaos, they had all perished and entered the cycle of reincarnation.
To refine the tablets and become a Ruler of the Stars again was easier said than done.
If it were that easy, Ziling would have done it long ago. Why wait until now?
"Aside from myself, Long Qiang, and Ye Dugu, the rest of the people have already refined the primal chaos tablets."
Huh?
"What's going on?"
Hearing Ziling's words, Long Ao was completely stunned. He knew very well what Ziling's words meant.
How could it be so fast? Even if the Rulers of the Stars had already refined the tablets once, it wouldn't be easy for them to refine the tablets a second time.
Even if you beat him to death, he wouldn't believe that there wasn't something fishy going on.
What was going on?
"Under normal circumstances, it shouldn't be possible. Long Qiang and Ye Dugu both obtained the tablets. It must be difficult for them to refine them, but they're the same as me. How could it be?"
No wonder Ziling couldn't figure it out.
No matter who it was, Ziling was more talented than the others. After all, Ziling was a Xiantian Jianling. There was no need to talk about his talent.
In that case …
If that was the case, then why did Blood Demon and the others refine the primal chaos tablets ahead of time and become the ruler of the universe, while Ziling still hadn't gained anything?
It really didn't make sense.
"Ziling, what do you think is going on?"
Ziling lowered his head and pondered for a while. Then, he suddenly raised his head and said, "Long Ao, I don't know why, but I have a feeling that fate has been decided. It doesn't seem as simple as it seems."
How could Long Ao not know what Ziling meant?
If that was the case, things would be very troublesome.
Among the many Starry Sky Rulers, there were many who had grudges with him. If these people were determined to deal with him at this time, he would be in a passive position.
Even now, Ziling and Long Ao couldn't figure out why the Blood Demon and the others had suddenly become rulers of the universe.
He did not doubt Ziling's words at all.
"Long Ao, don't you think that this vast universe is not as simple as we think?"
"I understand what you mean. Whether it's Yun Lu or Cang Lin, they're both beyond the scope of our understanding. The universe is indeed not as simple as it seems."
The universe had existed for who knew how long, and no one had been able to uncover its secrets.
There was nothing they could do.
But there was nothing they could do about it.
Even though they knew something was wrong, there was nothing they could do about it.
"Long Ao, you and the Master Clairvoyant made a promise of ten thousand years. Originally, we had a chance to catch our breath. With ten thousand years to refine the primal chaos tablets, I was confident that I could return to the peak of martial arts. But now, with the Blood Demon and the others refining the primal chaos tablets, if nothing unexpected happens, we won't be able to live in peace."
Setting aside the grudges between the Blood Demon and the others, he believed that the Master Clairvoyant wouldn't let go of this opportunity.
His ten thousand year promise with the Master Clairvoyant only said that they couldn't kill each other, but it didn't say that they couldn't borrow the help of others.
These were two completely different concepts.
It was no wonder that the Master Clairvoyant was willing to make a ten thousand year promise with him. Besides being afraid that he wouldn't be able to kill Ye Dugu in one strike, the biggest reason was that he wanted to borrow the strength of the Blood Demon and the others to deal with him.
What a good Master Clairvoyant.
Borrowing a knife to kill.
However, Long Ao was certain that if the Master Clairvoyant wanted to ask the Blood Demon and the others for help, he would have to pay a great price. After all, there was no free lunch in this world.
"Long Ao, what do you plan to do next?"
Helplessly shrugging, Long Ao smiled and said, "I'll deal with whatever comes my way. They couldn't kill me back then, but now they want to deal with me. Humph!"
Confidence.
Seeing Long Ao brimming with confidence, Ziling sighed deeply and said helplessly, "Long Ao, I know what you mean, but the situation is different now. With the Blood Demon and the others refining the primal chaos tablets, their strength is not something you can imagine."
Long Ao smiled.
"Ziling, now that the Soaring Dragon Empire is protected by the primal chaos roc's energy shield, not to mention the Blood Demon and the others, even the Master Clairvoyant won't be able to locate us."
Violet Spirit did not have much confidence in the Primordial Roc. After all, the Primordial Roc was no longer the Primordial Roc that it had been at its peak. It was still unknown whether the air shield it had set up would be able to block the lock of Master God-Diviner and the others.
Ziling couldn't figure out why Long Ao trusted the primal chaos roc so much.
If the primal chaos roc's energy shield really couldn't block the Master Clairvoyant and the others, it would be too late for regrets.
Ziling didn't try to persuade him. She knew very well that if she could think of it, Long Ao could think of it too.
"As for me, I have the protection of the Primal Chaos Palace. No one, not even Cang Lin, can control me."
Ziling didn't have the slightest doubt about this. She had seen the power of the Primal Chaos Palace with her own eyes. She had tried to locate the Primal Chaos Palace but failed.
She really couldn't figure out where Long Ao had obtained such a heaven-defying starry sky artifact. With such a starry sky artifact protecting him, he could indeed ignore everything.
However, it was better to be safe than sorry. After all, Long Ao's strength couldn't compete with the Starry Sky Ruler. If he wasn't careful, he would be doomed eternally.
Before Ziling could speak, Long Ao had already said, "Let's not talk about this for now. I still say the same thing. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. The most important thing now is to think of a way to heal Cang Lin's injuries as soon as possible."
Long Ao felt very guilty and blamed himself for Cang Lin. If he couldn't heal Cang Lin, he didn't know how to face himself.
He stood up and sighed helplessly.
