"Dammit, even if I'm a chess piece, I'll accept it. Once I'm at a higher level, I'd like to see who's whose chess piece," Ding Ning murmured to himself.
Ding Ning murmured in a low voice, his eyes full of viciousness.
If it was said that he did not have any lofty ambitions in the past and yearned for a simple and peaceful life, at this moment, his mentality had completely changed.
He wanted to become stronger, to the point where no one dared to have any ideas about him. Only then could he firmly grasp his destiny in his own hands.
When he thought of destiny, he suddenly remembered that he had not paid attention to the Absolute Touch that he had named Destiny's Hands for a long time. He hurriedly focused on it and was immediately shocked.
He had not expected that in the time that he had not paid attention to it, Destiny's Hands had completely evolved into a hand that was like a real person's. It was long and slender, as white as jade, as if it was real.
However, Destiny's Hands' body was still rather illusory and blurry, and he could not see its face clearly. However, the feeling of being connected by blood made him firmly believe that this Absolute Touch was something that truly belonged to him.
As for this Astral Will!
Ding Ning rubbed his chin, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a meaningful arc. It did not matter whether or not this was the foreshadowing of some old monster.
Perhaps it was, perhaps it was not.
However, for now, it could be his greatest trump card.
That's right, it was his trump card. When he encountered a powerful enemy that he could not contend against, he could completely drag them into this Astral Will and kill them. In here, he was the supreme ruler.
Unless the enemy had absolute strength that could break through this Astral Will, even if he could not kill them, he could completely trap them here. Without his permission, no one would be able to leave this place.
He did not know whether or not he could kill the old donkey, but he felt that there was no problem in trapping him.
Although the old donkey was his grandfather, since he did not care about blood ties and wanted to possess him, then he would not care about the relationship between grandfather and grandson.
Unfortunately, he did not know where the old donkey had run off to hide after being injured. Even his spiritual sense could not find where he was hiding.
It seemed that once his injuries were completely healed, he would have to carefully search the ancient buildings.
It was very likely that the old donkey and the Lu Qi were hiding there. Moreover, there were also the seven non-fleshly lifeforms and the Spirit of the Sacred Mountain on the altar. All of these piqued his interest.
He had originally planned to wait for the old donkey to find him so that they could enter the Sacred Mountain together and find the way back to Earth. But now, although he and the old donkey had yet to shed all pretense of cordiality, he did not dare to place his hopes on him. So, he had to think of a way to enter the Sacred Mountain and find the way out himself.
Of course, before that, there were still many things waiting for him to do. For example, those clowns who couldn't wait to jump out when they thought he was dead. He had to teach them a lesson that was enough to be engraved in their bones.
Two hours passed in a hurry, and Ding Ning's consciousness returned to his body. Looking at the Martial Soul that had become much more solid, he felt very gratified. As long as he waited for another day, the Five Elements Martial Soul should be able to be completely restored.
More than half of his physical body had been restored. His internal organs and meridians had been completely rebuilt. Now, his flesh and blood were being regenerated.
Logically speaking, this was the Demon Country, and what it lacked the least was the power of Qi and blood. This process should be the simplest step, but the power of the sun was too domineering and did not allow the power of Qi and blood to come close.
As long as it entered Ding Ning's room, it would be instantly evaporated into mist by the scorching sun fire.
This gave Ding Ning a faint feeling that the power of the sun did not want him to walk the path of Qi and blood cultivation.
After discussing martial arts with Kong Lei and the other wives, Ding Ning also understood the essence of the Demon Clan's cultivation of Qi and blood. Only then did he realize that his previous understanding was wrong.
He had originally thought that Qi and blood were life force, but after Kong Lei explained it to him, he realized that the density of Qi and blood did indeed affect life force, but they could not be completely equal.
Qi and blood were not the combination of blood and vital Qi in the body as he had thought. Instead, they were the combination of blood and the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. The Demon Clan cultivated their blood and used spiritual energy to strengthen their physical bodies and stimulate the revival of their blood.
This very well explained why the Primal Qi of Heaven and Earth in the Thousand Demon Territory had such dense spiritual energy. This was an indispensable component of the Demon Clan's cultivation.
After the Demon Clan's death, the Kun Peng's will would devour the essence of the flesh and blood that seeped out of the corpse, but it would not devour the spiritual energy that was floating in the air.
This was also why Kong Lei and the others' cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds after their genes had been modified by Ding Ning. The spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth was enough for them to absorb without restraint.
Unfortunately, the spiritual energy was not very helpful to Ding Ning's current cultivation. He was in the realm of tempering his Martial Soul, and the spiritual energy could only be used to replenish his energy.
Seeing that his physical body was recovering slowly but steadily, Ding Ning relaxed and began to try to control his spiritual sense again.
Compared to the Divine Sense, the spiritual sense had the characteristics of being clearer and more hidden. At such a sensitive time, it was easy for others to discover that he was still alive if he casually released his Divine Sense. Thus, the spiritual sense was the best choice.
After his unremitting attempts, although he could not completely control it, he was able to control a portion of it. However, the range of his spiritual sense was less than two kilometers.
However, to him, it was enough to be able to know the situation in the Commander's Residence at any time.
His spiritual sense was like mercury flowing down the ground, silently spreading in all directions. Everyone was performing their duties in the Commander's Residence, and everything seemed to be normal. However, the Wolf Guards did not seem to be in good spirits. All of them were dejected and looked dispirited.
Ding Ning did not think too much about it. He thought that the Wolf Guards had lost their spiritual support because of his death, so they were somewhat dispirited.
However, he quickly realized that Peng Tianjie was not in the mourning hall. This was fine. After all, he was faking his death. It did not matter if she was there or not.
The strange thing was that he could not find her even after searching the entire Commander's Residence. When he thought of the Wolf Guards' behavior, his heart skipped a beat. Could something have happened to Jie 'er?
This made him very anxious. Just as he was about to send a voice transmission to ask Zi Que 'er, the whispers of the two Wolf Guards made his expression darken. The anger in his chest continued to rise.
After eavesdropping and understanding the situation, Ding Ning could no longer hold back his burning anger. He forcibly stopped the recovery of his physical body. He did not care that he was still a bloody person without skin and directly condensed a five-colored cloth to wrap around his body. He directly smashed through the roof and anxiously rushed to the Imperial Court.
He understood Zi Que 'er's difficulties, but he could not help but be angry at her. His life was a life, but was Lang Kui's life not a life?
Ding Ning's movement was too big, and it instantly alarmed everyone in the Commander's Residence. The women walked out of the mourning hall with stunned expressions. Who was that person? It seemed to have jumped out from the room where her husband's body was placed.
Zi Que 'er, Kong Lei, and He Ling's expressions changed drastically. They immediately thought that Ding Ning must have known about Lang Kui's situation and desperately chased after him to save him.
This made their hearts turn cold. Without saying anything, they soared into the air and chased after Ding Ning.
It happened so suddenly that You and Lang Yuan only reacted now. They were afraid that Ding Ning would be lost, so they did not hesitate to soar into the air and chase after him.
The rest of the people were stunned. What was going on? Did someone sneak into the Commander's Residence and steal the Commander's body?
They could not be blamed for thinking so. After all, those who knew that Ding Ning was still alive had already chased after him.
Thinking of this, the women and the Wolf Guards were all shocked. Bai Xun 'er even changed her tone. "Quick, quickly go and see the Commander's body."
Lang Dong and the other three in the backyard heard the commotion and could not help but look at each other. They were conflicted. What the hell should they do?
Should they tell them that the Commander was not dead? But the Commander did not allow them to say.
But if they did not say, how could they explain now? They were in charge of guarding the Commander's body. If they misunderstood that someone had stolen the Commander's body, they would be so angry that they would tear them to pieces.
"We … cough cough, let's pretend to be unconscious. When the Commander comes back, everything will be fine."
Lang Bei had always been clever. When he heard the footsteps of the Wolf Guards getting closer and closer, he closed his eyes and lay on the ground, pretending to be unconscious.
"Good idea, that's all we can do."
Lang Dong and the other two's eyes lit up. Without hesitation, they followed suit and lay on the ground, pretending to be unconscious.
"Lang Dong, Lang Dong, what happened to you?"
"Not good, the Commander's body is gone."
"Lang Xi, they fainted."
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, be careful."
"Enemy attack my ass. That thief stole the Commander's body and fled. Quickly send people to chase after him."
… …
Lang Dong and the other three's' fainting ', coupled with the disappearance of the Commander's body, the entire Commander's Residence was in chaos.
Cries, screams, shouts, panic, angry shouts … they were incessant and became the main theme.
Lang Kui quietly looked at the expressionless Jin Gang in front of him. His voice was slightly hoarse. "You're here to avenge your brother, right?"
Jin Gang faintly sighed: "I know Jin Jie was seeking his own death. His death is not regrettable, but you shouldn't have killed so many of my people. If I don't do anything, I won't be able to get over the hurdle in my heart."
"I will die, but not now. I want to live and go to the Imperial Court to confess my sins. Now, I can give you a deposit!"
Lang Kui's expression didn't change at all. His right hand grabbed his left arm and forcefully tore it off, throwing it to Jin Gang. During the whole process, he didn't even bat an eye. If it weren't for the white bone stubble and the gushing blood, as well as his pale face, one would think that the arm wasn't his.
Hearing this, King Kong's expression changed slightly as he raised the arm and stepped aside, "You are a true man, this explanation is enough. From this moment on, all grievances between you and my Diamond Ape Tribe are written off. Go, I hope you can survive. When the time comes, this King Kong will drink three hundred cups of wine with you!"
Lang Kui grinned and slightly bowed: "Great Commander said that King Kong is a good man who clearly distinguishes between kindness and hatred. You were right. Thank you!"
"Great Commander actually has such a high opinion of me. Even if I, Jin Gang, die now, it will be worth it. What a pity, if Great Commander …"
Jin Gang swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He sighed with melancholy, held Lang Kui's left arm, turned around, and left.
"Yeah, if Great Commander didn't die, who in the world would dare to scheme against my Great Commander's Mansion? Although I, Lang Kui, am not as good as Great Commander, I will not tarnish the Great Commander's Mansion's reputation. It's just death. "
Lang Kui didn't look sideways as he strode forward, letting the blood drip on the ground. He muttered in a low voice. In his eyes, there was melancholy, sadness, anger, helplessness … The only thing that wasn't there was fear.
"Halt your steps! Who are you? What are you doing in the Imperial Court? "
At the entrance of the Imperial Court, sixteen guards in black armor raised their weapons. They stared at the one-armed Lang Kui who was covered in blood but didn't change his expression.
"I am Lang Kui. Please report to the Emperor that I, Lang Kui, am here to ask for punishment."
Lang Kui said in a neither servile nor overbearing tone.
The guards looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes. This one-armed man in front of them was actually Lang Kui, the leader of the wolf cavalry who dared to kill the Imperial Court's envoy.
