Lu congzi looked at mo hezhuâs hesitant look and was secretly happy.
Yunxiao sneered as he clapped his hands and praised, â âWhat the chief said was really good, concise and comprehensive, with a profound meaning and touching heart. Since youâre so sincere, then let your main body come to Alkaid Hall first to have a talk. Donât you think itâs impolite to always use your demon body to talk to the two lords?â
âYour main body first, then weâll have a good talk,â Yi nodded.
Lu congzi was stunned, and the old flesh on his face twitched a few times. He said embarrassedly, â âWithout Lord Yiâs pardon, my main body wouldnât dare to come.â
you donât believe in Lord min, â Yunxiao said sarcastically. since you want to join us, then use your real body as a proof of your loyalty. Otherwise, how can there be such a good thing? â
Nie and Zhu were also in agreement.
yes. Zhu nodded. let your main body bring the demon egg over first. If youâre really a useful talent, weâll consider giving you a lighter sentence.
Lu congziâs face twisted into the color of a bitter melon as he gave Yunxiao an angry glare.
He still had a certain degree of initiative now. If his main body really came with the devil egg, he would be completely passive. At that time, his life and death would be in the hands of others. To a treacherous and ambitious person like him, it was difficult to accept.
Besides, if his true body came, Yunxiao would kill him at all costs, even if nie hezhu wanted to let him go. Yunxiaoâs idea was really vicious!
âWhat, not happy?â Zhu frowned.
âUm, no, Iâm not unhappy, Yingluo.â
Lu congzi wiped the sweat on his forehead and said awkwardly, â âItâs like this. When I was stealing the devil egg, I exchanged a few blows with the two lords. Iâm indebted to the two lords for showing mercy, but Iâve still suffered significant injuries. Iâm currently recuperating in seclusion in a secret chamber in the city. If I interrupt the healing process, Iâm afraid it will bring irreparable damage to my body.â
Zhu frowned and did not know what to do. He looked at the judge and Yunxiao.
Yunxiao sneered. you stole the demon egg, and you deserve to be injured. But now, you want the two lords to forgive you? â Are you that f * cking precious? He would die if he moved a little? Alright then, tell us the location and the two lords will send people to carry you over. Also, there are two lords here. With their unparalleled abilities and cultivation, theyâll naturally ensure your safety. Donât worry.â
Lu congzi felt dizzy. The more Yunxiao said so, the more he did not dare to let his true body come. A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the depths of his eyes. He said, â
âMilords, my main body is indeed severely injured. How about this, give me seven days âtime, and I will definitely come out of seclusion after seven days. At that time, my main body will definitely bring the devil egg to Alkaid Hall to ask for forgiveness from the two lords.â
âSeven days?â
Bi and Zhu both muttered to themselves.
âYou canât!â
no! Yunxiao immediately objected. the shooting star City is the core of the demon tribe, and it is also the main city in the central region of the entire devil realm. Every day it is sealed off, the impact will be incalculable. If Lu congzi really wanted to submit, he could tell them where his main body was hiding. After the two lords confirmed it, they could lift the cityâs blockade and restore free movement. At the same time, we can retrieve the devil egg immediately and send someone to protect Lu congzi in case he encounters any accidents during his closed-door cultivation. If he accidentally goes into Qi deviation or something, weâll lose a great talent.â
âYou coward!â
Lu congzi was so angry that his mind was muddled. Now that Yunxiao had said so, how could he find an excuse to delay the matter?
Zhu was in a hurry to take back the Magic Egg. that makes sense. Tell us where youâre staying first. Weâll send people to protect you after we take back the egg.
Yunxiao sneered. the chief has not told us where he is hiding. Obviously, he has no intention of surrendering. He is clearly toying with you two and trying to stall for time!
âDonât you slander me!â Lu congzi roared.
Yunxiao gave him a sideways glance and said coldly, â âIs there? Itâs easy to prove your sincerity. Just tell me, where is your main body?â
âThatâs right, whereâs your original body? If you even hide this, how can you even talk about seeking refuge?â
Zhu also rolled his eyes and glared at Lu congzi.
âHmph!â
Lu congzi grunted. He found that he had lost to Yunxiao in terms of words, and knew that it was difficult for him to play any more tricks, so he simply closed his eyes and stood there in a daze, pretending to be dead.
âI asked you to speak!â Zhu frowned in anger.
Lu congzi looked like a dead pig that was unafraid of boiling water. He had completely given up. Since his meridians were all sealed, it was impossible for him to commit suicide or escape. At the end of his wits, he could only close his eyes and pretend that he was dead.
âBang!â
Zhu slapped Lu congziâs face, making him see stars. Iâm asking you a question! Say something!â
However, Lu congzi just closed his eyes and pretended that he was dead, and let them do whatever they wanted.
At this moment, there was a house made of gray stone on the outskirts of the shooting star City. It had two simple Windows and a door. It was no different from the residences of the surrounding residents.
The underground of the building had been hollowed out. In a space of more than ten acres, dim lights flickered in the four corners.
Black demonic runes would appear in the air from time to time, and they would flash and disappear.
In the center, the giant devil egg that had been taken away was placed on a formation, floating quietly.
âDamn you, li Yunxiao! You actually destroyed my devil body and seized it!â
Next to the devil egg, a cloud of black Qi emerged, revealing Lu congziâs face. His face was fierce and hideous, and his eyes were full of killing intent.
âHow are your injuries?â
In front of him, a black light flashed and slowly turned into a demonic shadow. It sat in the air and opened its eyes to look at him.
The devil had horns on its head and was dressed in a silver robe. Its exposed skin was covered in silver-gray scales, and its slender eyes flashed with a fierce light.
Lu congziâs face looked even gloomier, and he said coldly, â âOriginally, it wasnât a big deal, but now that weâve lost one demon body, the other one is probably going to die as well. This injury will take at least three to five years to heal!â
His face was full of hatred, and he was gnashing his teeth in hatred, wishing he could tear Yunxiao into pieces!
if I had known, I wouldnât have gone to find li Yunxiao. Now, Iâm in such a passive situation. What should I do? â
Lu congzi clenched his fists and pounded the ground with all his might. His gloomy face, hidden by the cracks in the soil and stones, seemed to be bleeding from all seven holes in his face.
The specterâs face revealed a strange expression and said, â âTeacher has always been wise, why are you so emotional today? Itâs just a setback.â
âEn, Yingluo.â
Only then did Lu congzi fall silent. He calmed his mind and said, â âTheyâll probably refine my devil body and find this place. Does Lord man have any countermeasures?â
The tall and sturdy demonic shadow in front of him was actually man, one of the eight demon Venerables.
âItâs indeed a little troublesome,â man said in a deep voice. If the Holy envoy finds out that Iâm the one behind this, itâll be extremely bad for the entire barbarian tribe. What we lack the most now is time. How long can your demon body last?â
weâll have to see their sorcery, â Lu congzi said worriedly. I reckon theyâll find our hiding place in seven days.
âSeven days?â
Manâs long and narrow eyes burst out with a bright light. He stretched out his hand to stroke the demon egg. His face seemed to be a little infatuated as he said,âThere are only two ways now. The first is that Iâll extract the power of this devil egg right now, and then weâll be able to kill our way out with our power. This method was very safe, but it would definitely waste a large amount of the ancient ape demonâs strength. The second method is to take advantage of the time when they are casting spells on your demon body and protect this demon egg to kill our way out. But if I do that, the chances of taking the Magic Egg away are not high, and I will definitely expose my identity.â
what? â Lu congziâs heart skipped a beat. my Lord, are you suggesting that we should choose the first option? â
Man nodded and sighed,âeven if itâs a waste, thereâs no other way.â Right now, I donât want to face the cultivators of the Archaeus Region Head on. After absorbing the power of this ancient ape devil, I should be able to conceal my identity and escape from the shooting star City. Then, youâll go into hiding for a period of time. Even if the kun tribe and the Archaeus region try to pressure me, Iâll never admit to it. â
Lu congziâs face was also gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, â âThatâs the only thing we can do now.â
Man nodded, then stretched out his hands and teleported to the sky above the devil egg, quickly forming hand seals.
The devil egg seemed to have sensed something and shook a little. It actually became somewhat transparent, and there seemed to be a huge shadow shaking inside.
Lu congzi looked on with a gloomy expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
A few days later, not only did the restrictions of the shooting star City not relax, but they also became even more severe. It was as if a violent storm was brewing.
Many people smelled the scent and began to be cautious, even rarely going out.
In Alkaid Hall, Lu congzi sat cross-legged in a huge formation. He had a wooden expression on his face, and his eyes were closed the entire time.
Several strange magical beasts sat cross-legged around the array. Their bodies were like toads, and their skin was covered with pimples. Their cheeks were moving, and they were exhaling yellow smoke that dispersed in the array.
Zhu, who had been behind Lu congzi, reached out and stabbed his five fingers into the top of Lu congziâs head, causing the demonic light on his body to roll. It was as if every part of his demonic vitality was being poured out.
Since Lu congzi closed his eyes and closed his mouth, directly sealing his five senses and six Senses, it made Zhu Heyi furious.
The two of them set up this secret technique according to the ancient method and began to refine this demon body in order to find the original body.
As yin and yang met, six days passed.
During the six days, Yunxiao did not leave for a moment. He sat cross-legged a thousand feet away from the array and cultivated.
One day, Lu congzi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his eyes and mouth, letting out a miserable cry!
ah!! Shua!
The scream immediately attracted everyoneâs attention, and six or seven people appeared around the formation in an instant, all of them nervously looking into the formation.
A look of great joy appeared on Zhuâs face. He quickly formed hand seals with his left hand and kept hitting Lu congziâs body, shooting out beams of demonic light!
