However, all three soon ended in failure.
Jiu Xuan snorted and said unhappily, "I'm not a full-grown adult yet, so the strength I can display isn't strong enough. Wait, wait a little longer, I can eat ten fish like him in one go!"
Demon King Mo Wen's tone was much more modest, leaving her speechless. "He can answer any question I ask. I can't trap him at all. I didn't expect this mermaid to be so knowledgeable. It really gives me a headache..."
"Owner……"
The Sad and Joyful Golem sounded particularly abashed, "I'm sorry we let you down."
"No, it's not your fault. I misjudged the strength of my opponent."
Jiang Deng looked up at Leng Chaosheng who was safe and sound in the distance and frowned slightly.
Since fighting head-on doesn't work, we can only use our wits to defeat him.
It would be better to continue turning the sixth disciple into a fool and keep him with her. When her strength surpasses that of the sixth disciple, she can cure his stupidity and find out the whereabouts of his soul.
very good!
Jiang Deng nodded, and was about to use the Death Seal to turn Leng Chaosheng into a fool again when—
"Jiang Deng, I'm here to help you."
A clear voice came from behind Jiang Deng.
Jiang Deng looked back and saw Baili Chengfeng approaching through the air, his expression unusually anxious. "Sorry, I just realized you were in danger through the wind and snow whistle, so I came a little late. Are you okay?"
"……No."
Jiang Deng shook his head and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his lips.
She originally didn't want Chengfeng to be involved in the affairs between her and her disciples, but she didn't expect that in the end, man proposes, God disposes. However... she strangely didn't hate him. What was going on?
"Phew, I'm relieved that you're okay."
Baili Chengfeng looked at Jiang Deng and confirmed that he didn't see any wounds on her body, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the two people above who were talking as if no one was around, Leng Chaosheng's eyes flashed.
In the past, the master trusted him the most.
Now, why has it changed to this person?
No, he absolutely would not allow anyone to have a higher status in the Master's heart than him!
Thinking of this, Leng Chaosheng's eyes were full of hostility. He didn't care whether killing Baili Chengfeng, the domain lord, would cause the Ancient Spirit Realm to attack the Demon Realm.
He has put all the consequences behind him. After all, he is no longer the Demon King of the Demon Realm. What does the safety of the Ten Realms have to do with him?
Now, he just wants to have fun!
“Go to hell!”
Leng Chaosheng shouted sternly, "Heavenly-level magic, pouring out fire!"
Then, his huge fish tail slapped, creating huge waves. The huge waves containing powerful force rushed towards Baili Chengfeng!
The huge wave was like a copper basin full of water that suddenly turned upside down. The water was surging, and Baili Chengfeng was as small as a spark. How could he resist?
However, Baili Chengfeng was not at all panicked. He protected Jiang Deng behind him, took a step forward, and looked up at the unmatched huge waves.
Just when the huge waves were about to roll up Baili Chengfeng's thin body, he finally moved.
"Frozen—"
With a flick of his finger, Baili Chengfeng's huge waves turned into ice crystals at a speed visible to the naked eye and solidified together.
Looking up, the world between heaven and earth is made up of ice and snow.
Not only that, even Leng Chaosheng's fish tail connected to the huge wave was frozen. Now only his upper body can move.
Is it possible to freeze the huge waves caused by the heavenly-grade water magic without using any magic?
Leng Chaosheng widened his beautiful eyes in shock, "Impossible! You are so powerful that you can ascend at any time, why don't you ascend!"
“…”
Hearing Leng Chaosheng's question, Baili Chengfeng couldn't help but steal a glance at Jiang Deng. Before Jiang Deng could notice, he quickly looked away.
From beginning to end, he remained silent, clearly refusing to answer the questions raised by Leng Chaosheng.
"Could it be that you..."
Although Baili Chengfeng didn't say anything, Leng Chaosheng still vaguely understood something from the look in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Deng.
Could it be that this person was the one who gathered the remaining soul of the master and helped the master to be reborn?
“Hehehe…I see, that’s how it is!”
Leng Chaosheng couldn't help laughing, and his laughter was so shrill that it made people's hair stand on end.
Seeing this, Jiang Deng couldn't help but frowned, "What are you laughing at?"
Leng Chaosheng stopped laughing and looked at Jiang Deng with a strange expression, "My disciple, are you laughing at yourself? I'm laughing at my own stupidity. I pushed the person who is most important to me to someone else."
"What exactly does it mean?"
Jiang Deng frowned even more tightly. She had no idea what her sixth disciple was saying, but she felt that this matter seemed to be related to her.
"What do you mean? Of course..."
Leng Chaosheng said this as he glanced at Baili Chengfeng who was standing next to Jiang Deng.
Baili Chengfeng immediately shook his head, signaling Leng Chaosheng to stop talking.
"Oh! I'm too lazy to talk about it."
Leng Chaosheng scolded softly, looking at the two people who were close to each other above, and felt inexplicably lost in his heart.
It's no wonder that Master cares so much about this Baili Territory Lord. He truly considers her in everything. He can't compare to this thoughtfulness...
"Um?"
Jiang Deng looked back and forth between Baili Chengfeng and Leng Chaosheng, vaguely realizing that the two seemed to be hiding something from her, but she didn't know what exactly they were hiding from her.
Leng Chaosheng below closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes became clear. There was a trace of blood at the corner of his lips, which made him look even more pitiful.
"Master, don't you want to know where your soul is? Come here, and I will give it to you personally."
"Sister, be careful, there's a trap!" Jiang Zhiling said worriedly, "Don't forget how he plotted against you just now. The more attractive a demon cultivator is, the more likely they are to deceive."
Jiang Deng shook his head and said, "It's okay. I'll be back soon."
Leng Chaosheng's fish tail had been frozen, along with his dantian, leaving him unable to perform any magic.
What's more, Chengfeng is watching from the side, so even if something really happens, there is still a chance to make amends.
More importantly...
Jiang Deng tried it. She had used teleportation once before and now it had recovered and could be used again. She was able to escape before the sixth apprentice attacked her.
Thinking of this, Jiang Deng calmed down and came directly to Leng Chaosheng.
"Where did you hide my soul? Can you tell me now?"
Leng Chaosheng glanced at Jiang Deng with a complicated expression, and said with some sadness, "Master, you are so important to me, so naturally I have placed your spirit in the safest place, which is... within my body."
After saying that, Leng Chaosheng opened his thin lips slightly, and a bead sparkling with azure light was spit out by him.
The bead lay quietly in Leng Chaosheng's palm, containing a strange energy. A golden light was wandering in the center, which was one of Jiang Deng's souls.
"This is……"
Jiang Deng frowned, "Your inner elixir, the mermaid pearl?"
