"…" Xuan Mist curled up on the spot, feeling cold all over.
He was a water-elemental Divine Weapon, and yet he felt cold. Of course, it wasn't a real cold, but a new cold.
"I … I …" Xuan Mist's dragon body squeezed out a forced smile. "I think … there might be some misunderstanding between us …"
Before he could finish speaking, a large hand suddenly grabbed towards him.
Xuan Mist's hair stood on end. His dragon body exploded into a cloud of black mist, but he soon reformed not far away.
However, he was clearly in a sorry state. Lu Sheng's grab had come out of nowhere, and the shockwave was so strong that even his talent was hindered. He was slightly injured.
"My lord! I have no intention of being your enemy. Whatever happens to the Black Deer Tribe has nothing to do with me. I'm just hiding here and cultivating. I didn't cause any trouble! "Xuan Mist quickly explained.
"Just the two conditions just now. If you listen to me, I promise I won't kill you. " Lu Sheng was rather interested in the Xuan Mist Divine Weapon, not because of anything else, but because of the way it dodged and moved, which allowed it to remain in a stalemate despite being surrounded by so many formation diagrams. That made him look at it in a different light.
Even with his martial arts experience and knowledge, he still couldn't see through the mysteries within. This was quite amazing.
Xuan Mist wasn't that stupid. Although he wasn't smart, he wouldn't step into such a shallow trap. Looking at Lu Sheng, who was obviously much stronger than him, his mind worked quickly to think of a way to escape.
"My Lord, if you want Divine Weapons, I can point you to the locations of some Divine Weapons that have sealed themselves. Compared to me, these Divine Weapons and Devil Blades are much more valuable and easier to collect. It's just that they're hard to point out because they're disguised." He decided to sell the locations of a few Divine Weapons that he knew before.
"Oh? Really? "Naturally, Lu Sheng wouldn't believe him so foolishly.
"With your status, my lord, you can easily send someone to retrieve them. I wouldn't dare lie to you about something this important," Xuan Mist said hurriedly.
"Also, I want the way you dodged just now," Lu Sheng pointed out. He was satisfied with this Divine Weapon's rare obedience. What was even rarer was that it could guess what he was thinking and cater to his interest. This was extremely rare. He didn't want to kill it.
"No problem, no problem! My Lord's cultivation is so high that I wouldn't dare to hide it from you. Hehe, uh … Also, I don't know if my Lord came to exterminate the Black Deer Tribe because you know that this tribe has colluded with the Devil World. Speaking of which, they even planned something big in the Autumn Moon County City and almost succeeded. "In order to increase his bargaining power, Xuan Mist decisively sold out his former allies.
"Devil World?" Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat. This time, he was truly surprised. This Xuan Mist was actually so meticulous. This was useful.
"That's right!" Xuan Mist said hurriedly. "My lord …" He looked at Lu Sheng's big mouth and sharp teeth, and felt a bit scared. "Can you stop like this? I'm scared out of my wits in front of you. This place isn't big, and you're taking up too much space … There are some things I want to say, but I can't say them."
Lu Sheng thought about it and agreed to its request.
He was only here to kill a Divine Weapon, but he didn't expect to run into a treasure like Xuan Mist. Among all the Divine Weapons and Devil Blades, there were probably very few of them.
He had a feeling that he might have gained a lot from this trip.
After fifteen minutes, Lu Sheng slowly floated to the surface. An exquisite light green longsword hung at his waist. He didn't kill Xuan Mist. He only subdued it and signed a simple contract, making it his Divine Weapon.
In any case, the contract itself was only an exchange of power between the two parties, and there was no design for mutual safety.
Walking out of the water, he looked at Elder Stone and King of Shadows.
"Change of target. Let's go to Echo Valley."
Huiyin Valley was the location where Xuan Mist had suggested another Divine Weapon to live in seclusion. It was also a water-type Divine Weapon.
The trip was very smooth. Echo Valley was a hundred miles away from Autumn Moon County. When they arrived, Elder Stone personally took out a sleeping Divine Weapon for Lu Sheng. The exchange was completed easily.
…
The Devil World.
North Imperial Palace.
Tap, tap, tap, tap …
Inside the ice-cold, pitch-black Emperor Palace, a tall figure clad in dark golden armor was sitting on the throne with a slightly irritated expression. His fingers were slowly tapping on the armrest of the throne.
The figure was clad in a suit of armor that covered his entire body. Even his face was hidden in the helmet, and nothing could be seen.
"So you're saying that Divine Sound hasn't sent any signals yet?" The armored man's calm voice was laced with a hint of violence.
"Yes, Your Majesty." On both sides of the palace below, there were a few tall figures dressed in black armor, with long black cloaks trailing behind them.
One of the figures with a bull horn helmet stepped forward and knelt on one knee. "Judging from Divine Sound's direction, the Yin Dynasty is near Autumn Moon County. It's very likely that they've discovered our plan and set up an ambush ahead of time. Miss Divine Sound's team is doomed."
Bam!
Vera, the Demon Emperor, slammed the armrest.
"Useless!" He exhaled, clearly dissatisfied with Divine Sound's rash actions.
"Your Majesty, we're attacking the Gorge of Two Worlds with all our strength. All the Demon Masters have gone to the Yin Dynasty, leaving only enough power to hold the fort. There's no need to stir up trouble. Just focus on the battle." Another figure with a fox pattern on his chest stepped forward and said in a low voice.
"Within a year! I want a definite result from the Gorge of Two Worlds! Tell the Sand Demon that if he can't deal with the allied army, I'll kill him first! "Demon Emperor Vera was almost roaring.
The people below all felt helpless.
Among the four Demon Emperors, Demon Emperor Vera had the worst temper and was the most violent. That was why his subordinates were the weakest. With so many Demon Masters and Demon Kings, who would be willing to work for a Demon Emperor who was unpredictable and violent at will?
Even so, Demon Emperor Vera was the most famous of the Four Pillars of the Devil Realm. Not because of his power, but because of his violence and cruelty. A few of the most famous and cruel crimes in both the human and devil realms were committed by him.
"Also, if you can't even take care of a small pawn from the Thousand Sun Sect, what use do I have for you?! Ping Yuge, take care of Lu Sheng who ruined my plans. Is there a problem? "Demon Emperor Vera was serious this time.
Although he was a powerful Demon Emperor, it didn't mean he didn't feel the pain of losing his clones after losing two clones in a row. After all, it took a lot of time to regenerate a clone.
In the palace, a slightly thinner man slowly took off his helmet, held it in his hands, and knelt on one knee.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Be quick. Before the Yin Dynasty can react, do it quickly. If you can't catch him, kill him," Demon Emperor Vera said coldly.
"Understood." Only Demon Emperor Vera had the right to call Ping Yuge. His actual title was the Mind-Controlling Demon Master.
He was the strongest Demon Master under Demon Emperor Vera. He was also the most famous murderer in the entire Devil Realm. If the strongest Demon Master was the Divine Intellect level, then he was the Divine Intellect of the Divine Intellect level. He was already a Divine Intellect Demon Master a thousand years ago. Now, he was even more unfathomable. Some Starry Sky Nobles even guessed that he was the next Demon Emperor.
Doing it himself was like killing a chicken with a butcher's knife. But the furious Demon Emperor Vera didn't care.
He only needed a result, a result he wanted. As for the process, it didn't matter.
…
Year 368 of the Yin Sect Calendar, Spring.
The Yin Sect Emperor, Shi Tao Zong, died of illness. The entire nation mourned. Another part of the Gorge of Two Worlds was breached. Five Gates of Flesh and Blood were built. The Devil Disaster spread.
The imperial court was in chaos. The princes persecuted each other and roped in the officials and powerhouses of the three sects. Grand Ancestor Muxuan Tuo appeared. He was called the Extreme Yin Weapon Grandmaster and stabilized the situation. He organized the army to attack the Devil Disaster area.
In the same year, the Divine Weapon, Evil Jade Crystal Ten Spears, appeared and assassinated the army's general, Yuanguang Teng. The army was defeated.
In the same year, Grand Marshal Jing Fan led 16,000 imperial guards to attack three Gates of Flesh and Blood in the Devil Realm. He killed four Demon Spirits and one Demon Master. His achievements shook the world and turned the tide.
The Devil Realm and the Human Realm fell into a stalemate again.
In the same year, the 27th Prince, Qiong Shang, went missing. After searching for him, it was determined that he was killed by the Devil Army.
…
Nine Bright Province, Moling Prefecture, Autumn Moon County.
Ever since Lu Sheng returned, the entire Lu Manor was in a state of jubilation. Lu Quanan released his family members and let them do as they pleased.
In the Autumn Moon County, Lu Sheng's status and strength were almost at the top. All the mortal forces in the Thousand Sun Sect, the other two sects, and even the government had to give way to the Lu Family. Many of them even tried to get close to the juniors in the Lu Manor, even proposing marriage.
Lu Sheng's status in the Autumn Moon County was no longer comparable to that of a normal true disciple.
Many people secretly thought that Lu Sheng would take over as the next sect master of the Thousand Sun Sect in the Autumn Moon County. However, only the sect master of the Thousand Sun Sect, Chen Jing, knew that Lu Sheng didn't care about this position at all.
He had been in seclusion recently. Apart from going to the Thousand Sun Sect's Dao Palace library when he had nothing to do, he was researching a mysterious movement technique that he got from somewhere. His connection to the Blood Sun above was also getting closer, as if he was planning something.
Many of the juniors in the Lu Manor, on the other hand, didn't have enough willpower. Under many temptations, both overt and covert, they finally couldn't hold back and were tempted.
…
Peace Casino.
In the hall of the casino, shouts and curses came from the tables of all sizes. It was extremely chaotic, but there was a hint of order.
Beside the tables, the croupier skillfully shook the dice and pushed the banknotes back and forth on the table from time to time.
At the side door of the casino, a few people in luxurious clothes quietly watched the bustling scene.
"How is it, Brother Tianyang?" The leader of the group, a man with an air of nobility, smiled at the young man beside him.
The young man's face was pale, and he had huge eye bags. His body was thin, and he looked like he had been drinking too much. It was Lu Tianyang, one of the male members of the Lu Family.
