Everyone stared at Wu Chang in unison.
Wu Chang: "Since things have come to this, I won't hide it from everyone. I want to protect this person! The reason is that the Devil Cult came to me for help. "
"Devil Cult?" Luo Qiu chuckled. "Others might not know, but I do. How could the Devil Cult instruct you?"
Wu Chang glanced at him. He knew that the other party's words contained sarcasm about the past, but he was unmoved. "It's not an order! Listen carefully, she's begging me! "
Luo Qiu: "The people from the Devil Cult begged you to save Yuan Gang? How can the Devil Cult show up when they have nothing to do with each other? "
Wu Chang: "I won't hide it from everyone, there are some things that I also just found out about. Not long ago, I just received a letter from the Devil Sect, left the Sage Realm, and went to the Demon Ridge, only then did I find out about this Yuan Gang's true identity. So when he came back, he directly brought him here. "
True identity? Everyone was somewhat curious. Zhangsun Mi asked, "What's the identity of this Yuan Gang?"
Wu Chang: "Saint!"
Zhangsun Mi: "What is it?"
Wu Chang explained, "The successor of the Devil Sect's Holy Maiden. This Yuan Gang has obtained the inheritance of the Devil Sect's Holy Maiden and is the current Devil Sect's Holy Son!"
Everyone looked at each other.
Mu Lianze: "Wu Chang, are you kidding me? The Devil Cult has always been a Holy Maiden, how could there be a Holy Son? "
Wu Chang: "Because the Evil Sect has a deep misunderstanding of me, they always think that I will harm the Evil Sect's Holy Maiden, so in order to guard against me, they made a man."
Everyone was secretly amused when they heard this. "As if you didn't do it. Didn't you hurt the Holy Virgin of the Devil Cult?"
Wu Chang continued, "The Holy Maiden secretly passed the Devil Sect's inheritance to Zhao Xiongge. Due to his relationship with Niu Youdao, Zhao Xiongge actually passed the Devil Sect's Holy Maiden's inheritance to Yuan Gang. Therefore, Yuan Gang became the Holy Son. Not only do you feel that it's wrong, even I feel uncomfortable. But there's no other way, the truth is as it is. "
Mu Lianze: "Even if that's the case, you didn't know about this Saint's existence at all?"
Wu Chang: "They misunderstood that I would harm them. In order to hide it from me, even Yuan Gang himself didn't know that he had obtained the Holy Maiden's inheritance. This time, they really had no choice but to beg me."
Lv Wushuang laughed coldly. "Then why did you send Black Stone to Heavenseek City to get him back?"
Wu Chang: "That's because I found something amiss in the Endless Desert. I saw that this Yuan Gang seemed to have the inheritance of the Devil Sect. I wanted to find out what was going on, but because of the rules between the nine of us, I couldn't act rashly. I could only go through the procedures of the Misty Pavilion. Think about it, if I had known earlier, if I hadn't discovered the anomaly in the desert, would I have waited until now to act? Do you think you have the right to interfere? "
His gaze swept across the crowd. "If I hadn't known his identity before, would I have waited until I returned from the outside world to go to Heavenseek City to take him away?"
Everyone was either pondering or frowning. After hearing what he said, it seemed to be the case.
Luo Qiu: "You will actually protect the Devil Sect's Holy Son?"
Wu Chang said expressionlessly, "The world has a deep misunderstanding of me. They say that I have harmed the Devil Sect, that I have murdered my godfather. There's no such thing! I come from the Devil Sect and have always protected it. The fact that the Devil Sect can stand until now is proof. How can I sit back and watch the Devil Sect's Holy Son get into trouble? Whoever goes against the Devil Sect's Holy Son is going against me! "
Everyone was amused. If they didn't know the situation, they would have thought it was true.
But they all understood. It was nothing more than the reputation of killing one's own father. Even after becoming a whore, she still wanted to maintain her chastity!
This group of people had always thought that this was the reason why the Devil Sect had existed until now.
"So I hope that everyone can give me face and let him go! If you don't believe me, you can go to the Devil Sect to investigate and see if what I said is true. "
"Everyone, don't worry. I wanted to detain him earlier because I wanted to find out why he has the inheritance of the Devil Sect. I have no other intentions. Now that I have figured out the situation, as long as you let him go, I guarantee that I will immediately release him and return his freedom. I will never do anything to him that you have imagined. If you find out that what I said today is false, you can come and settle the score with me at any time. You can also arrest him at any time! "
In order to hide the secret, Lv Wushuang did not hesitate to compromise. He expressed that he no longer wanted the Scorpion King and was ready to move in the dark.
As for Wu Chang, as long as he got what he wanted, why would he need to detain Yuan Gang? On the surface, he also made a concession.
Everyone exchanged glances. Regardless of whether the matter was true or not, before they confirmed the joint attack and made thorough arrangements, no one had the confidence to detain the other.
It was easy to make a move, but if they let him escape, there would be endless troubles.
Especially when Lv Wushuang, Yuan Se, and Wu Chang were all involved in the matter at the same time. What to do needed to be discussed.
In short, the two of them gave such an explanation. Before they had any solid evidence, they could only vaguely accept it for the time being.
All along, the balance between the nine of them had been like this. If it was worth breaking the balance easily for one matter, it needed to be carefully considered according to the situation.
No one was willing to stay here for a long time. When everyone left, Wu Chang suddenly said, "Thank you for giving me face. Take care, I won't send you off. Lv Wushuang, please wait! "
Everyone turned around and Yuan Se said, "What can't you say in front of everyone?" He was now worried that Lv Wushuang would be at a disadvantage if he stayed alone. Or rather, he was worried that Lv Wushuang would say something she shouldn't.
Wu Chang said, "Fatty Yuan, you'd better wipe your own butt. I don't welcome you here, scram!"
Yuan Se chuckled and didn't mind. "Beauty Lv, someone is framing us. There are some things I really need to talk to you about. I'll wait for you outside. Call me if you need anything." After saying that, he turned around and left. His fat body trembled with every step he took. His big body passed through the crowd.
The others could see Wu Chang's intention of letting Lv Wushuang stay. Yuan Gang killed Lv Wushuang's disciple, and Wu Chang wanted to protect Yuan Gang. The two of them probably had to talk.
After everyone left, Lv Wushuang sneered and said, "What? You want me to be merciful? "
"Beg you?" Wu Chang smiled disdainfully and moved closer to her. Relying on his height, he looked down on her. "You're right. I was the one who spread this rumor. I was waiting for someone to silence me. Now it's true!"
Lv Wushuang's pupils shrank. She understood what he meant. Since he already knew about this, it meant that he had made preparations before spreading the rumor. It wasn't something that Yuan Se could erase. He had evidence in his hands!
"I hope you can give me face. There's no need to hurt our friendship over a dead person. It's best to let this matter pass. I don't want anything to happen to Yuan Gang. You should understand what I mean, right?" Wu Chang's words were meaningful.
"Hmph!" Lv Wushuang flicked her sleeves and left.
After confirming that the guests had left, Hei Shi came back to report, "Holy Venerable, they've all left!"
Wu Chang said, "Bring him out."
"Yes!" Hei Shi accepted the order and left quickly.
Not long after, Yuan Gang, who was in an extremely weak state, was brought out.
Wu Chang grabbed Yuan Gang and dashed out of the Demon Palace, heading straight for the sky.
Hei Shi, who was walking out quickly, saw him off. He knew that this person couldn't wait any longer. He desperately wanted the Demonic Book. He couldn't wait a moment longer for the thing that he had been looking forward to for so many years!
…
When he landed again, Yuan Gang, who was weak and covered in injuries, was already thrown at the entrance of Zhao Xiongge's cave abode.
Zhao Xiongge looked at Wu Chang, who was standing upright, and quickly squatted in front of Yuan Gang. After confirming that it was Yuan Gang, he quickly cast a spell to check his injuries.
The injuries were very serious. Some parts were even skinned, and white bones could be seen in his limbs.
Zhao Xiongge reached out to pull out the steel needle that was stuck in Yuan Gang's body. Wu Chang said, "No hurry, he won't die. Hand over the thing first!"
Zhao Xiongge, who had pulled out a bloody steel needle, stood up. "Are you sure that no one in the Saint Realm will find trouble with him again?"
Wu Chang said, "If you don't find trouble, there naturally won't be trouble. I've already brought you the person. The thing, where's the thing I want? Don't test my patience. Hand it over immediately! "
Clang! The steel needle was thrown on the ground. Zhao Xiongge knew that Wu Chang's mental state was already on the verge of extreme danger, so he jumped off the cliff.
Wu Chang did not have any other reaction and immediately followed.
One flew up and down repeatedly in the air, while the other slowed down in the air to follow.
The same place, the deep stream that he had brought Niu Youdao to last time. Zhao Xiongge jumped down, while Wu Chang coldly looked around vigilantly and slowly floated down.
At the corner between the stone wall and the ground. Boom! Zhao Xiongge blasted it open with his palm, and with a flurry of pulling, he flipped out a stone from inside. He cast a spell to crack the stone, took out a metal box, and threw it to Wu Chang.
Wu Chang caught it and cast a spell to check the case. After confirming that there was no problem, he opened the box and saw that there was a tightly wrapped oiled paper package inside.
He casually threw the box away, took the oiled paper package, and tore it open. He grabbed the metal scroll inside and saw four words on it: Li Ge's letter.
Just the two words "Li Ge" were enough to provoke him. Ancient rhyme, ancient style, and this feeling, he knew it was an old thing the moment he held it in his hand. He raised his head and asked, "This is the Demonic Book?"
Zhao Xiongge said, "The so-called Demonic Book is not an ancient book, it is actually this handwritten letter."
Wu Chang's hands trembled a little when he finally got what he had dreamed of for many years. After finding the way to open it, he pulled it, and the metal scroll made an extremely pleasing friction sound to him.
The craftsmanship was extremely exquisite, and there was an ancient charm to it. Especially the handwriting, it was obvious that a great cultivator had directly cast a spell on the vajra to carve it. That mellow artistic conception was not something that could be faked easily.
To be able to carve words directly on Vajra, one could imagine the strength of this cultivation.
Wu Chang's body and mind were trembling, and he quickly became engrossed in the contents, especially the latter part, which made him exceptionally engrossed.
After he finished reading, he let out a long breath and frowned. "Man in the mirror … Man in the mirror …" If he did not obey, the man in the mirror would come to kill him. The meaning contained in these words made him feel a sense of threat. He looked up at Zhao Xiongge. "What does the man in the mirror mean?"
Zhao Xiongge said, "Don't ask me this. If the previous Saintesses knew what it meant, you so-called Nine Saints wouldn't be so arrogant. I also want to know what it means. But other than Li Ge, no one should know what it means. "
Wu Chang was silent. He opened the scroll again and quickly scanned it again. He asked, "Is this all the Demonic Book has?"
It was fine if he didn't see it, but now that he saw it, why did it feel like he had obtained a piece of chicken rib?
Zhao Xiongge said, "Do you think that this scroll can hold more space? Or do you think that Li Ge needs to make a few scrolls to list the various things separately? "
