His gaze swept over the room full of people lying haphazardly, and a strange look of triumph appeared in his eyes.
He walked in slowly, followed by several people.
They kicked aside the Xuanmen disciple closest to the door, then locked the door.
He glanced at the people in the room, then let out a soft sigh.
"Huh? Why isn't Mingluo here? Wasn't she supposed to be here?"
The man in black said menacingly, "That woman isn't qualified to be here, and Nie Yuchen isn't here either. We need to finish this quickly and act fast."
"Okay!" The others didn't object anymore.
The man in black pulled out Master Gu, and then pulled out Fang Zhengqi.
He placed the two leaders of the Xuanmen sect together, pulled down his hood, removed his mask, and lifted the hair that was covering his face to reveal his true appearance.
It was a face like a skull.
It was Zhao Youde, the escaped leader of the Celestial Masters Sect.
Zhao Youde's face revealed a greedy look. "Old Gu, don't blame me. Blame yourself for being too indulgent towards Mingluo."
He channeled his inner energy, quickly absorbing the profound energy from the two individuals into his own body.
His withered face quickly became plump, and he looked like a leech that had sucked its fill of blood.
The others did the same thing as Zhao Youde, absorbing the skills of others for their own use.
After Zhao Youde fled, he quickly gathered a motley crew of thugs using his own methods.
They first used Gu insects to assassinate Master Gu and frame Fang Zhengqi.
They also poisoned Fang Zhengqi, so Fang Zhengqi only needed a light push from Ma Hongyuan to vomit blood and faint.
If the two sides start fighting, he can profit from the conflict.
Those were the places that Mingluo found strange, but with Zhao Youde's appearance, the truth came to light.
Mingluo turned on her phone and recorded the scene.
Then, he slowly and deliberately unleashed a burst of profound energy, which landed squarely on Master Gu and Fang Zhengqi.
Master Gu suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Zhao Youde!"
Zhao Youde was so startled that he almost choked, but he quickly recovered and put in more effort.
Fang Zhengqi managed to free one hand and struck Zhao Youde with a palm strike. However, since it was borrowed strength, his palm fell limply to the ground after reaching mid-air.
Minglu stepped forward and slapped Zhao Youde on the back.
Zhao Youde let out a scream, stumbled a few times and barely managed to stand up. He turned around, clutching his chest, and stared fiercely at Mingluo.
"It's you?"
At this moment, Nie Yuchen also rushed out of the cabinet and knocked away the rabble who were absorbing the power of Master Lin and others.
Minglu chuckled softly, "Zhao Youde, long time no see!"
Zhao Youde's eyes narrowed slightly. "It's you again! Hmph! Mingluo, considering your talent, I'll spare your life. Will you submit to me willingly, or will I have to do it myself?"
He remained calm and composed, a black light flashed around him, and soon his wounds were healed.
In her hand, a golden silkworm gu, shrouded in black mist, slowly crawled out, its eyes dangerously fixed on Mingluo…
