Secret chamber??Zhou Shu frowned slightly.?What kind of secret chamber can only be opened by a human-demon hybrid?
âAre you joking?â Zhou Shu looked at Emperor Wei Wu.
âDo I look like Iâm joking?â Emperor Wei Wu said. âYour time is precious. My time is equally precious. I donât have time to play with you.
âI didnât want to tell you too much at first. But since youâve refused to help, I have to make it clear to you.
âIt will also be beneficial to you to help me open the secret chamber.â
âHow do I know youâre not lying to me?â Zhou Shu said. âIâve never heard of any secret chamber in the Demon Realm related to human-demon hybrids!â
âOf course you havenât. If youâve heard everything, then itâs not a secret.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âNo more than two demonic beasts in the entire Demon Realm know about this. Your father should know too. I even suspect that you were born for this secret!â
In order to convince Yao Qing, Emperor Wei Wu spoke without thinking.
If the real Yao Qing heard this, he would definitely be provoked and lose his rationality.
But when Zhou Shu heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
Yao Qing was born to open this secret chamber?
Ji Lutian had a child with a demonic beast back then, not because he was dominated by her but because he had such a plan?
If this was true, it would be too terrifyingâ¦
If Emperor Wei Wu had said this to Zhou Shu in the past, he would have treated it as a joke.
But now, especially after his trip to the Heavenly Hub Armory, Zhou Shu already had doubts about Ji Lutian. This person was definitely not as simple as he appeared.
He might really be able to do such a thing!
Zhou Shuâs curiosity was successfully piqued by Emperor Wei Wu.
But he didnât agree directly. Instead, he stared at Emperor Wei Wu and said coldly, âIâm giving Demon King Ao face by speaking to you. If you dare to spout nonsense again, donât blame me for being impolite!
âIf you want me to help you, youâd better explain the secret chamber. If you donât make it clear, I will never help you.â
âDonât worry. Since Iâve already said it, Iâll naturally let you understand,â Emperor Wei Wu said. âItâs a long story. I wonât elaborate on unimportant matters.
âI can tell you that this secret chamber was left behind by the Demon Ancestor.â
Zhou Shu looked at Emperor Wei Wu. His heart stirred, but he didnât say anything.
After Emperor Wei Wu joined the demonic beasts, he seemed to have learned a lot. Zhou Shu didnât know if he already knew this or if he had heard it from Demon King Ao.
Zhou Shu didnât know who the Demon Ancestor was. When he entered the dreams of Yao Qing and Yao Lian, he had never heard about the Demon Ancestor.
But from the looks of it, Emperor Wei Wu had no intention of introducing the Demon Ancestor. Perhaps he thought that Yao Qing definitely knew who the Demon Ancestor was.
In order to avoid exposing himself, Zhou Shu didnât ask.
As the name implied, the Demon Ancestor should be a peerless expert of the Demon Realm. It shouldnât be something ordinary demonic beasts could do.
Emperor Wei Wu changed his tune and told the story like a third-rate storyteller. âBack then, the Demon Ancestor fell in love with a peerless human expert and gave birth to a son.â
Zhou Shu was speechless.?Is this Demon Ancestor male or female?
Such a ridiculous thought flashed through his mind.
Emperor Wei Wu continued, âThe son of the Demon Ancestor was born with a weak physique and was unable to cultivate. In order to extend his lifespan, the Demon Ancestor and the peerless human expert spent a lot of effort.
âThis secret chamber stores the heaven and earth treasures the Demon Ancestor and the peerless expert of the human race gathered for their son.
âThink about it. What kind of value will the treasures collected by two peerless experts be?â
Emperor Wei Wuâs tone changed slightly. It was obvious that he was very excited.
Zhou Shu felt like he had heard a third-rate story. He clapped and said, âVery exciting.
âAccording to what you said, the son of the Demon Ancestor died in the end, right? How do you know that he didnât squander all the treasures before he died?
âAlso, how can you be sure that the Demon Ancestor didnât take away the things in the secret chamber?â
âThere are some things that you canât come into contact with, so itâs normal for you to have such doubts,â Emperor Wei Wu said indifferently. âI can tell you that the Demon Ancestor suddenly died back then. He didnât have time to arrange his funeral.
âAfter he died, his son quickly died at the hands of his enemy. There was no time to squander the treasures in the secret chamber.
âHowever, although the son of the Demon Ancestor couldnât cultivate, he still inherited the intelligence of the Demon Ancestor. Even though he died, he hid the secret chamber well. If we canât crack the clues he left behind, we definitely wonât be able to find the secret chamber. Even if we can find it, without the bloodline of a human-demon hybrid, we wonât be able to open it.â
Emperor Wei Wu said solemnly, âI spent a lot of effort to confirm the location of the secret chamber. Yao Qing, if you help me open it, other than helping you become the Holy Son of the Demon Realm, Iâll give you thirty percent of the things in the secret chamber!â
âYouâre quite generous,â Zhou Shu said casually. âI need to think about this matter. How about this? Come find me in a few months. I still have to help Demon King Hu Li build the Demon King Palace. Even if Iâm interested, I canât go now.â
