Fear flashed across the man's eyes, but he quickly calmed down and stared coldly at Gu Xuan.
He was full of confidence.
His appearance caused Gu Xuan and Fairy Fei Hong to be stunned.
Even if the scholarly man was stronger than any one of the Demon Flame Four Greats, he was definitely not a match for the four of them when they joined forces.
However, the man was now staring coldly at Gu Xuan as if he was sure that he could defeat Gu Xuan.
Where did this kind of confidence come from?
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes and stared at the man with interest.
"What other tricks do you have? Why don't you use them? I'll give you a chance to attack."
The scholar robed man burst into laughter.
"It seems that I've been underestimated. Do you know who I am? "
Gu Xuan shook his head.
"I'm not interested."
The man's expression stiffened.
"Alright, I'll tell you! I'm the number one strategist under the Eternal Demon Sage. You're still far from being able to fight with me. Since you let me attack first, I only hope that you won't regret it! "
The man sneered as demonic Qi surged out of his body. His aura was completely released, and it actually caused the space around him to freeze.
Gu Xuan smirked.
"Compared to the Four Demon Flame Heroes, you do have some ability. Unfortunately, you're still too weak."
"Shameless boasting. Die!"
The man in the Confucian robe roared and soared into the sky.
Then, with a whoosh, he flew backward.
His speed was so fast that it was as if he was risking his life to reach the limit of his life.
Gu Xuan, "..."
Fairy Fei Hong, "..."
The corner of Gu Xuan's mouth twitched.
Aren't you the number one strategist?
Didn't you want me to regret it?
Is this how you want me to regret it?
Where's your ambition?
Whoosh!
Gu Xuan also turned into a streak of light and rushed out.
The man had always had a serious face, so Gu Xuan did not expect him to be so funny.
Moreover, he was so straightforward and decisive!
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was shameless.
In just a moment, the man who had fled dozens of miles away was picked up by Gu Xuan like a chicken.
Fairy Fei Hong followed closely behind and caught up.
"I'm afraid that this number one strategist's ability to escape is also number one in the demon army."
Fairy Fei Hong looked at the trembling Confucian-robed man and couldn't help but smile.
The man in the scholar's robe had completely abandoned his image at this moment. His face was full of fear, and he didn't dare to look Gu Xuan in the eye. His previous unyielding demeanor of wanting to fight with his life on the line had already disappeared without a trace.
"My … My lord, please don't kill me. As long as you don't kill me, I can tell you where the Eternal Devil Sage is. I can take you there! "
The scholarly man begged for mercy.
Gu Xuan looked at the Confucian-robed man and clicked his tongue in wonder.
"I really can't refuse your request. Bringing you along should save us a lot of trouble, right? "
As soon as the Confucian-robed man heard Gu Xuan relenting, he immediately pulled himself together and said,
"Of course! As long as you disguise yourselves as members of the Devil Race and follow me, the rest of the Devil Race army won't be suspicious of you.
The two of you will be able to find the Vermillion Bird much faster. "
When Fairy Fei Hong heard this, a hint of interest flashed across her face.
Obviously, being able to find the Vermillion Bird faster was very attractive to her.
However, the other party was a member of the Devil Race after all. She couldn't trust him completely. Whether to keep him alive or not still depended on Gu Xuan's final decision.
Therefore, Fairy Fei Hong didn't say anything to influence Gu Xuan's thoughts.
However, how could Fairy Fei Hong's expression hide from Gu Xuan?
Gu Xuan smiled faintly and said, "If that's the case, then you lead the way.
Coincidentally, I also have a few questions that I want to ask you. "
The Confucian-robed man looked excited after surviving a calamity.
"Lord Gu Xuan, feel free to ask. I will definitely tell you everything I know!"
Gu Xuan clicked his tongue in wonder.
"Your Excellency's face is truly ever-changing. You are the only one in the Devil Race. Are you really the number one strategist under the Eternal Devil Sage? "
The Confucian-robed man seemed to not feel that Gu Xuan was mocking him at all, and patted his chest loudly.
"Of course, this isn't a bluff."
Gu Xuan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"I believe you. Then, tell me, do you have a Devil Core in your head? "
The Confucian-robed man's expression froze, as if he was afraid that Gu Xuan would split his head open.
He hurriedly explained, "I don't have such lowly things in my head. Only those who walk the True Devil Dao and become a half-step True Devil will have it. "
Gu Xuan nodded. No wonder he didn't get a single Devil Core after killing thousands of Devil Race warriors.
It turned out that only a half-step True Demon warrior could possess such a treasure.
If that was the case, then it was a pity.
Gu Xuan sighed in his heart. He was the only half-step True Emperor in the vast Sky-Burning Continent.
Although the Demon Race had a lot of people, the Eternal Demon Saint probably didn't have many people with him. After killing four half-step True Demons, it would be difficult to find more half-step True Demons.
"Lead the way."
Gu Xuan said faintly.
Only then did the Confucian-robed man reveal a relaxed expression. He led Gu Xuan in a certain direction.
Gu Xuan and Fairy Fei Hong had already changed their appearances. Gu Xuan even used his Soul Imitation ability to disguise himself as a member of the Devil Clan.
The Confucian-robed man was dumbfounded.
If he hadn't seen Gu Xuan and Fairy Fei Hong's disguise with his own eyes, he wouldn't have been able to tell that they were humans in disguise.
An hour later, the three met the first patrolling Devil Race team. There were more than a hundred of them.
After seeing the Confucian-robed man, they respectfully bowed and watched him leave before continuing their patrol.
Two hours later, the three of them had already encountered three patrolling teams of Devil Race.
However, due to the Confucian-robed man's presence, these teams didn't have any intention of interrogating Gu Xuan and Fairy Fei Hong.
The journey was smooth.
The three crossed a distance of several thousand miles.
Finally, a huge mountain range with surging Devil Qi appeared in Gu Xuan's sight.
The huge mountain range was shrouded in black clouds.
After flying a little closer, the terrifying crack in the mountain range appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
There were clearly more patrolling teams. The sky was filled with Devils on guard, no less than a thousand of them.
In addition to the Devil Race army lurking in the surroundings, there were at least ten thousand Devil Race warriors gathered here.
"We're here!"
The Confucian-robed man stopped and pointed at the crack in the distance.
Fairy Fei Hong's face flashed with joy.
"Is that the Endless Abyss? Her Highness Vermilion Bird Princess is trapped inside? "
The Confucian-robed man's eyes flashed with a trace of haze. The flattery on his face suddenly disappeared.
"No, I mean, we've arrived at your graves."
The Confucian-robed man stared at Gu Xuan with a ferocious expression.
