387 What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?
Noticing his strangeness, Jiang Xin walked over with concern: "Little Junior Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xiao came back to his senses and saw Jiang Xin, and inexplicably felt a sense of relief.
He sniffed, covered his chest which had just calmed down, and said in a daze: "I don't know what happened, I just saw a lot of strange pictures, and I suddenly felt very sad."
[Just now, Junior Brother was facing the explosion of spiritual power and vitality in the Devourer's body. He must have seen the Devourer's appearance when it devoured the demon world through these two media. 】
[As the Demon Lord, he would definitely be affected when seeing the demons suffering, and it is normal for him to feel sad. 】
Jiang Xin patted his shoulder and comforted him: "That's all in the past. When we defeat the Devourer in the future, we will all have a good life."
How long ago was that?
Jiang Xiao was a little confused, but seeing Jiang Xin's confident words, he also gained confidence. He nodded vigorously, clenched his fists and said, "I must kill the Devourer and avenge everyone!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Xin agreed, suddenly remembered something, and turned to look behind him.
Behind her, the giant tree grown from the branches of the world tree was moving quietly.
As Jiang Xin's gaze fell, the giant tree, which had long since shrunk to the size of a banyan tree, suddenly froze, trying its best to pretend that it was just an ordinary tree.
Jiang Xiao exclaimed, "I was so busy beating up the Devourer that I forgot about it."
The heart of this tree is quite similar to the heart of the World Tree. Once you practice the mental method and blend yourself with the surrounding environment, it is easy to forget its existence.
Just now, Jiang Xin and Jiang Xiao's entire attention was on the Devourer's clone, and they had no time to pay attention to it, which is why it was lucky enough to survive until now.
Following their gazes, the others also noticed this miniature giant tree and began to discuss it secretly.
"We can't keep this thing, right?" Chu Linfeng asked in a low voice.
The second elder nodded slightly and asked Wanlihong and the other three, "What do you want the branch of this world tree for?"
Wanlihong was surprised: "Is this a branch of the World Tree?"
Second Elder: "…What are you surprised about?"
Wanlihong looked at the little giant tree that froze in place because of Jiang Xin and Jiang Xiao's gazes, and sighed helplessly: "You can see that we were called here by Jing Yunpeng. As for what happened before we came, we really don't know."
At this point, she rolled her eyes and said to Qiu Yeluo, "Ignorance is not a crime. Your Majesty, please be lenient with us in the future for this reason."
Qiu Ye Luo sneered, "Who knows if you really don't know or if you're just pretending not to know." He looked at the little giant tree and was also curious, "Where did this thing come from?"
The Second Elder and the Sixth Elder looked at each other and told the Demon Kings everything about Feng Hen's death and the origin of the branch of the World Tree.
Mu Zisong was stunned: "No wonder we rarely see Senior Feng Hen in recent years. It turns out that he was replaced by someone else a long time ago. Did Jing Yunpeng rely on the so-called 'devourer' to deceive everyone?"
He looked at Wanlihong and the other three, obviously wanting to get an answer from them.
At this point, there was no need to hide anything from the Devourer, so Wanlihong told him everything he knew: "I didn't know the details of Fenghen's death before, but one day, the Lord suddenly summoned the five of us, told us that Fenghen was dead, and asked one of us to pretend to be Fenghen and secretly control the Demon Realm."
Jin Zongyun continued, "Feng Hen is popular with people. The high-level cultivators who are on good terms with him, such as Zhu Yue, are all at the top of the Tribulation Crossing Stage. We are worried that they will find out that we are pretending to be Feng Hen, and bring disaster upon ourselves, so we don't want to get involved in this mess."
Ge Chuang sneered and said, "Jing Yunpeng was eager to advance, so he rushed to accept the job. He was only in the Fusion Stage at the time. In order to do this job, the man helped him advance to the Tribulation Stage and gave him a secret treasure that could conceal his identity from a Tribulation Stage cultivator."
Mi Xian didn't understand why the three of them cooperated so well in telling the truth. He always felt that he would be isolated if he didn't say something.
So he also said: "This secret treasure can help him disguise himself perfectly at ordinary times. The only disadvantage is that once he starts fighting, it cannot make up for the difference in cultivation between him and Feng Hen, and it is easy to expose his identity. Therefore, he never took action when pretending to be Feng Hen over the years."
The Sixth Elder said, "Tsk!" "No wonder the Seventh Elder forced Jing Yunpeng to fight last time. He felt that there was something wrong with this kid. It seems that Jing Yunpeng is afraid that his moves will be discovered. Even when he is not pretending to be Feng Hen, he dare not fight with all his strength."
Shen Muse sighed regretfully, "It's just that Master is kind and stops when sparring with others. If he was an evil cultivator, seeing that Jing Yunpeng couldn't beat him, he would beat him to death. Maybe he would have killed this scourge and snatched the secret treasure."
"That's right!" The second elder agreed deeply and looked towards the place where Jing Yunpeng died.
There's nothing there.
Secret treasures also contain spiritual power. When the devourer absorbed Jing Yunpeng's spiritual power and vitality, it also sucked away all the useful things on his body, such as spiritual stones, secret treasures, etc.
Only a handful of yellow sand was left, having long been obliterated in the subsequent battles.
Ao Yu didn't want to listen to the people from the Tianshui Sect bragging about themselves, so he asked Wanlihong and the other three in a deep voice: "What does the Devourer want you to do in the Demon Realm?"
Wan Lihong confessed honestly: "To spread the doctrine of the 'Supplementary Sect' and prepare for his true self to descend into the Tiancheng Spirit World."
The major forces in the demon realm are independent of each other and their territories are scattered. Each ethnic group takes care of its own business and rarely cares about the affairs of other ethnic groups, nor does it want other ethnic groups to interfere in their internal affairs.
Large clans like the Dragon Clan and the Nine-tailed Fox Clan have clear-headed ancestors in the Tribulation Crossing stage in charge. Even if they have doubts about the doctrines of the "Offering Sect", their general direction is still consistent with that of the human race and they are in a state of "cannot be asked, cannot be said".
However, some races do not have high-level cultivators, or those whose patriarchs have led the rebellion, such as the Qingpeng Clan and the Qianliyizhang Qing Clan, and their entire population has long since thrown themselves into the arms of the "providing faction."
"Which races have you instigated to rebel now?" asked the second elder.
Mi Xian subconsciously wanted to tell the truth, but Wan Lihong, who had always cooperated, suddenly changed his attitude and said, "We can ask, what do you want in exchange?"
The second elder raised his eyebrows: "You want to negotiate terms with me?"
Wan Lihong laughed: "During this period of time, when I was working for that person, I also secretly observed some things. These clues are very useful to you. If you are willing to let us go, I will tell you everything and promise not to cause you any trouble in the future."
"If we don't agree, do you want to seek death again and join the Devourer?" Mu Zisong asked unhappily.
"That's not the case. You've seen how he treated Jing Yunpeng. I don't want to follow in Jing Yunpeng's footsteps. But if you agree to my conditions, it will be of great help to the subsequent matters." Wanlihong persuaded patiently and seemed very sincere.
Mu Zisong, Ao Yu and Qiu Yeluo looked at each other and did not refute immediately. They were obviously considering the deal.
The second elder smiled: "The clues you observed mean that the Devourer wants to use the doctrine of the 'Supplementary Sect' to intercept the thoughts of all living beings and steal the power of Mingchen Immortal Venerable; or does it mean that he wants to use the doctrine of the 'Supplementary Sect' to change the will of all living beings and weaken the barrier of the Tiancheng Spirit Realm to facilitate his own arrival?"
Wanlihong looked surprised.
Jin Zongyun was even more surprised and said, "Why is there something about Immortal Master Mingchen here?"
"So you don't even know this, then what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?" The second elder smiled softly with his hands covering his mouth, looking like he had everything under control.
Mi Xian didn't want to talk to them anymore, and said impatiently, "If you don't want to talk, then let's go."
The Second Elder did not make a move, but said leisurely: "No, you are prisoners now."
"I can leave if I want to. Why do you…?"
"Xinxin!" The second elder shouted. Jiang Xin, who was not far away, turned her head curiously and asked crisply, "What's the matter?"
"They want to run away." The second elder pointed at Mi Xian and his four companions.
Jiang Xin frowned and raised her fist in a ferocious manner: "Don't run, or I'll beat you up."
The pink little fist looked powerless, but Mi Xian clearly remembered that when she punched the Devourer, each punch made a deep hole. Suddenly, a chill ran from the soles of her feet to the back of her head, and even the tip of her tail was stretched straight.
After talking to the Second Elder and others for a long time, how could he have forgotten about this little ancestor.
Mi Xian didn't dare to say anything anymore.
The other three demons also looked very bad.
Ge Chuang asked tentatively: "These two little ancestors of your Tianshui Sect should not know the soul-searching technique yet, right?"
The soul-searching technique has very high requirements for the caster. The four of them are all in the middle stage of tribulation. Even if a strong man like Zhuyue came, it would be difficult for him to search their souls.
As long as we can’t search their souls, we won’t know how many mines they have buried in the demon realm, and we won’t be able to kill them.
The Sixth Elder guessed their thoughts and said with a smile, "If you don't know how to do it, you can learn. Even if you can't learn it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, these two kids are caring. As long as the beating is painful enough, someone will confess first. As for those who insist on not telling, there is no point in keeping them. Just kill them and refine the weapon or the pill."
Wanlihong and the other three shuddered at the same time.
Compared to Jing Yunpeng, the four of them are of one mind.
But the four of them are wary of each other, and no one can trust the other unconditionally.
Once you are tortured, if someone confesses before you, you will be of no use and everything will be over.
What's more, judging from Gu Qingzhi's tone, these people seemed to know more than herself.
Wan Lihong thought about this clearly, quickly took out a jade pendant, and wrote a series of things on it with his spiritual sense: "This is the list of the monsters I am responsible for transforming. They are now devout believers of the 'Supplement Sect'."
She handed the jade pendant to Qiu Yeluo.
Qiu Yeluo thought about it for a moment and reached out to take it. After review, it is passed on to other people for reading.
Wanlihong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
As the founding monarch of the Qiuye Dynasty, Qiu Yeluo set down the rule of governing the world with laws, and he himself must set an example, otherwise he will suffer backlash.
Now that he is willing to accept her jade pendant, it means that he has accepted her as a "tainted witness" and she no longer has no choice but to die.
Jin Zongyun reacted the fastest and quickly handed over the list he had.
Ge Chuang did as he was told without knowing why, and secretly told himself that it was always right to follow these two cunning guys.
Mi Xian reluctantly wrote a list as well, muttering quietly: "Can a little bit of human sentiment really have an impact on such a powerful being?"
