Chapter 53
Wherever the fingertips pointed, thousands of transparent sharp blades slashed out, leaving flowing light traces on the sea surface, and the space was like a mirror retreating and shattering piece by piece.
Until it was blocked by a layer of brilliant blue light barrier.
Lin Xubai looked coldly: "Demon, Lord..."
He calmly pointed out the identity of the person, but when he saw the woman beside the person, his eyes suddenly burst into a fierce murderous intent.
Then two more space blades were thrown out, and were blocked by the masked man in silver robe.
"My Lord, you are truly good-tempered. Not only did you show mercy to these demon cultivators who were rebelling against your superiors, you even accepted inferior demons like succubi who don't even understand obedience. This shows how desperate your forces are for manpower... They've even resorted to recycling garbage." Lin Xubai smiled hypocritically, mocking coldly, "Ah, I have no objection to your hobby of recycling garbage. I'm just helping you clean up these useless waste. No need to thank me."
"Who are you?" Jiang Wan asked unhappily.
This tone of voice... sounds so familiar... Could it be...
She had already stepped into the door of her home, but suddenly she sensed a powerful pressure from the Endless Sea. She thought that these evil cultivators were restless and wanted to cause trouble again, so she rushed back in annoyance to deal with them. However, she found that she had wronged them, and it was not these evil cultivators who were causing trouble.
But an ordinary-looking immortal cultivator?
Why would an immortal cultivator run to the Endless Sea?
Jiang Wan subconsciously glanced at the dark sky. A man of great skill and courage... is he here to slay demons and prove his truth?
Looking at the demon cultivators below who looked even more miserable than before she left, Jiang Wan felt speechless and ashamed. These demon cultivators usually acted so arrogant and domineering, and she thought that the demon cultivators of the Demon Sect were so powerful, but what was the result?
Huh... He can't even defeat an immortal cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, yet he still has the guts to go after her, the Demon Lord?
No, these people don't know their own strength, right? How dare you think so? And dare to do it!
Jiang Wan looked at this group of useless demon cultivators. She felt disgusted when she thought that these people were her subordinates. But now the focus was on this immortal cultivator. She looked left and right and he was still very ordinary.
It seems that he is in disguise just like her...
The [Silent Face of the Amnesiac] on her face not only hides the wearer's information, but also confuses others' cognition.
Corresponding to the magic and spiritual awareness that isolates all prying eyes, and distorts the image of the wearer in the eyes of others?
For example, the people from the Demon Sect, they have a certain idea of what she looks like, so what they see will solidify into the image in their imagination.
Since they had already determined that she was a man, under the distortion of the "Silent Face of the Amnesiac", in their eyes, Jiang Wan was a feminine and handsome man.
"I'm just a nobody." Lin Xubai was humble, but his eyes were rude. Not only did he meet the Demon Lord's gaze without flinching, he also looked at the Succubus provocatively, "I came here today for no other reason than a personal matter."
When he first heard that the new Demon Lord had defeated the Eight Gates and unified the Demon Realm, he didn't take it seriously, thinking that he was just a newborn demon and that it must be the result of his innate magical powers.
Seeing him today, he was able to dissolve his spatial blade effortlessly. Not only that, even his spiritual sense couldn't detect his true strength... This strength is extraordinary...
No wonder he was able to beat the old monster hidden by the Demon Sect like this, no wonder the Immortal Sect is so afraid of him...
Although he has many limitations now, so what? Even if his strength is not as good as it was in his heyday, it does not prevent him from having the confidence to come to the Demon Realm.
Jiang Wan and Lin Xubai were unable to see through each other's disguises.
Jiang Wan was simply frightened by the fact that Fang Qian recognized her at a glance. After placing a ban on the succubus, she quickly took out the [Silent Face of the Amnesiac] and put it on. She couldn't let her great cause fail halfway.
The reason why Lin Xubai disguised himself was even simpler. His character as a weak talisman cultivator could not be defeated, so he was the external aid invited by the young talisman cultivator to help save others.
"Don't you, Demon Lord, know that your good subordinate attacked his own people, or... did you, Demon Lord, condone this?" As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became sharp.
"Yeah, I know. So I dealt with him badly." Jiang Wan said, "But these are my Demon Realm's affairs. They have nothing to do with you, sir."
Hearing this, Lin Xubai's expression softened a lot. He had been observing for so long and found that the succubus, who was always talkative and disgusting, was actually silent and unusually silent.
Was it because the secret abduction of Jiang Wan was discovered... that's why the Demon Lord dealt with him...
I have to say, this was a wonderful misunderstanding. The succubus was silenced by Jiang Wan simply because his words were too disgusting, but he was indeed beaten up by the Demon Lord.
Lin Xubai's anxious heart relaxed a lot, Jiang Wan was safe now.
After all, Jiang Wan is a member of the demon clan. Since the Demon Lord sent her to Guiyuan Sect, he will naturally not allow the succubus to disrupt his plan at this juncture.
It seems that he is going to ask the Demon Lord for someone.
Lin Xubai's expression eased slightly. "I will not interfere in the Demon Lord's family affairs. I just hope that the Demon Lord can return to me the innocent person who was accidentally injured by your demon cultivator."
Jiang Wan frowned in confusion. Accidentally injured? Innocently implicated?
Isn’t that her brother Yan Yan?
"Sorry, he's mine, I can't." Jiang Wan said firmly.
Lin Xubai's smile deepened, and his curved peach blossom eyes were filled with frost. "Your, person? Maybe she was before, but now... it's not certain."
"I'm afraid that Lord Demon cannot control her heart by relying on his status."
Jiang Wan laughed angrily. What did he mean by relying on his status? "Really? But when he first saw me, he was the one who cried and begged to follow me! He even said that I was the most important person in the world to him!"
"He said that the relationship between him and me is incomparable to anyone else," Jiang Wan boasted hypocritically. "What a pity! I also advised him not to always focus all his attention on me, but he refused to listen. Although we had to separate for some reasons, he still cares about me very much and pays attention to me very much. I am also very embarrassed..."
Although her brother is a bit silly, he is a super sister-con. It’s just that this love is a bit too much for him to bear and he is a bit overprotective!
Jiang Wan's secret boasting and the unintentional complaints from the heart were heard by Lin Xubai.
That is a naked provocation!
Lin Xubai's air pressure was terribly low.
"They had to separate for some reasons." Doesn't that mean that Jiang Wan went undercover in Guiyuan Sect and the Demon Lord was in the Demon Realm, so the two separated.
It’s correct, all correct.
"Concerned", "Caring"......
Thinking that the intimate behavior between Jiang Wan and him would also happen to the secretive Demon Lord in front of him, Lin Xubai was so angry that he wanted to overturn the outer world of heaven and wanted to pull out Jiang Wan, the little liar, and "punish" him.
Thinking of this, Lin Xubai lost control and a burst of sword energy rushed out, leaving deep cracks on the ground.
"......" Lin Xubai's face turned completely cold, his smile disappeared completely, and he said sarcastically, "I hope that the power of the Demon Lord can be as confident as you speak..."
As expected, Lin Xubai was successfully provoked after many years.
In the end, the two of them fought each other.
Jiang Wan:?
No, I'm just telling you the truth. Why are you so upset?
as well as.
Brother? Where did you get into this trouble?
He is really good at fighting!
As expected, the Demon Sect is just too rubbish. Jiang Wan once again dissed the Demon Sect’s cultivators in her heart.
Jiang Wan couldn't help but marvel in his heart at this immortal cultivator who could fight with him back and forth without being at a disadvantage at all.
The opponent had no weapons in his hands, yet he could produce effects comparable to those of a sword.
The sea water, the gale, and the demonic energy can all be used by him and transformed into swords in his hands.
The sword light is like the fluttering peach blossoms in March, and the sword energy is like the surging undercurrent of the spring river.
Extremely elegant.
Jiang Wan admired in his heart, and raised his scythe to cut off the beautiful sword light again.
She tried to go big, but her opponent always found opportunities to exploit her flaws and restrict her.
However, even so, she was able to deal with the opponent's offensive with ease. She couldn't do anything to the opponent, but the opponent couldn't do anything to her either.
Just when she thought the battle would continue, the opponent suddenly made a feint, fooled her, and then raised a wave to attack a hundred meters away.
Then, at the moment when the waves and the sword light intersected, the figure disappeared.
Jiang Wan: ???
Jiang Wan was full of questions and couldn't figure it out. Why was he running?
She looked at the succubus who would rather cheat than kill him with a single blow before disappearing. What kind of hatred or grudge was that... Eh? Wait!!!
Thinking of the other party's familiar tone of voice, Jiang Wan suddenly realized that she seemed to have misunderstood something.
But looking at the wreckage on the ground and the devastated endless sea, Jiang Wan fell silent for a moment.
Ah, what if a fight breaks out in front of your own house and your own house collapses?
His gaze turned to the group of demon cultivators shivering in the corner. They were still alive... they were so lucky.
"Pass the order down, the eight gates of the Demon Realm, quickly come to the Endless Sea."
Jiang Wan flicked his sleeves, and the severed silver robe immediately returned to its original state.
She wanted to organize a meeting of the Demon Sect to discuss the Demon Clan’s territory, no, the issue of the construction of the Demon Realm.
By the way, let’s find something for these demon cultivators to do, so they don’t keep causing trouble all day long!
The vast Demon Realm is located in a remote corner.
"Are you okay?"
"It's okay. Fortunately, I left this magic circle before I left. Otherwise, I would have been forcibly sent back to Yuanzong by now."
"Is this succubus so powerful? Even you couldn't take it down?" Lou Zang was stunned. He didn't stand up from his cross-legged sitting position, but just touched the back of his head.
"No, the one fighting with me is the Demon Lord of the Demon Clan." Lin Xubai shook his head, steadied his body, and destroyed all the formations he had set up.
"Hiss—" Lou Zang's eyes widened and he slapped his thigh. "Is this Demon Lord so powerful? He even dares to capture your people?"
Hearing this, Lin Xubai's face looked very ugly and he did not answer immediately.
The Demon Lord is indeed powerful. They even used the beauty trap on him, and no one knows who he is.
Jiang Wan, this idiot, could it be that he mistakenly recognized the wrong person for the mission target...
"It's not him. He's fine."
——
Fang Qian put his hands behind his back and walked proudly among the busy demon cultivators, "Everyone, cheer up and don't be lazy!"
As a supervisor, he enjoys the greatest say on the construction site except for the Demon Lord.
"Hey! People from the Heavenly Desire Palace, show off your unique skills and make these spiritual and demonic flowers bloom! And use that Seven Emotions and Six Desires Formation!"
"Chanxin Sect, why aren't you guys moving? Are you being lazy? I'm telling you, this land needs to be plowed, and these walls and roof need to be fixed! They have to be level!"
"That Nine Star Divine Cult member! I'm talking about you. What the hell is that sculpture you made? I've told you countless times that the statue of His Holiness must be majestic and powerful! Show the spirit you use in worshipping the evil god and go back and redo it—"
"Look at the people from the Lianxin Sect, how dedicated they are! This barrier technique is really good, the strong winds from the Endless Sea are finally blocked from blowing in! I'll give you credit for this achievement!"
"It's from the Demonic Spirit Sect, right? Send this blueprint back for a redo! Your Majesty has already said that the zones should be planned according to needs! 'Killing Zone', 'Rest Zone', 'Training Zone', and more..."
Finally, Fang Qian seemed to remember something, took out a scroll, and distributed one to each person.
"Oh, by the way, this is the code of conduct for demons of His Majesty. Every one of you should remember to read it! Don't say I didn't remind you, His Majesty likes demons who are low-key and have substance the most!"
The demon cultivators who were working hard stopped what they were doing and opened the scrolls——
