fine.
Jiang Deng let out a light breath.
Although she was dissatisfied with the appearance of the third disciple, fortunately the seventh disciple did not show up. Otherwise, with the seventh disciple's strength far exceeding that of the other disciples, her dominant domain might not be able to trap the seventh disciple.
Holding on to the last hope, Jiang Deng took a deep breath and looked at the Demon Lord who had woken up again.
The Demon Lord slowly opened his gentle eyes. He touched his head and asked in confusion, "Hmm... Why is there such a big bump on my head?"
Then, his eyes fell on Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng in front of him.
"Master? Lord Baili?"
Unlike Jiang Deng's other somewhat neurotic disciples, this newly appeared disciple was obviously much more normal, and even his tone was very gentle.
Jiang Deng's frown gradually relaxed, "Second disciple?"
Baili Chengfeng also tentatively asked, "Medical Saint?"
"Yes. It's me," Bai Ziyi nodded. He looked around and wondered, "Where is this place? Why are you here?"
The second apprentice finally came out!
Jiang Deng breathed a sigh of relief. It looked like it was finally done.
"To make a long story short."
Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng talked one after another about the current situation and what they wanted Bai Ziyi to do.
Bai Ziyi hesitated for a moment, "You want me to pretend to be the Demon Lord and lead the outer demons back to the Demon Realm?"
"Yes!"
Jiang Deng corrected him, "You can't say you're pretending to be the Demon Lord. Aren't you using the Demon Lord's body? So be confident and don't let others see through your identity."
"Uh... okay."
Bai Ziyi really couldn't say no to any of Jiang Deng's requests.
What's more, he, who has always been kind, doesn't want to see the scene of a war in the fairy world and rivers of blood.
So, Bai Ziyi slowly stood up and took the initiative to say: "Then there is no time to waste. Let's go find those extraterritorial demons right away. The sooner we finish this matter, the sooner the fairy world can return to peace."
Seeing Bai Ziyi's proactive attitude, Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng looked at each other with joy in their eyes.
It seems they have found the right person this time!
The three of them rushed to the place where the extraterritorial demons gathered. Bai Ziyi looked at Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng who were behaving very intimately, and his eyes darkened.
He had always known that his master disliked him.
In the past, there were so many fellow disciples who distracted the master's attention, and he couldn't compete with them. Now that the master has someone else in his heart, he is even less able to compete.
Yes, there has never been a place for him in the master's heart. He has become accustomed to it and dares not to dream of things that do not belong to him.
but……
Noticing Jiang Deng's strong aura, Bai Ziyi hesitated and asked, "Master, do you still remember what you promised your disciple?"
"Ah...I remember."
Jiang Deng searched her mind for a while, what had she promised her second disciple?
Seeing Jiang Deng's evasive look, Bai Ziyi naturally saw the problem. He smiled bitterly and said, "Master, you said you would promise your disciple to protect Si Tang. Now that you have ascended, I wonder how Si Tang is doing?"
Jiang Deng: “…”
Cold sweat broke out on her forehead. What should she say?
She couldn't say that Bai Sitang was seeking death by trying to steal someone else's artifact, and then he really died, right?
I guess in that case, the second apprentice would immediately regret it and stop helping them.
So, Jiang Deng could only lie and say, "Ah, Bai Sitang is doing fine. He will probably ascend to heaven soon."
"Really?... That's good."
Bai Ziyi restrained his smile, and his long eyelashes covered his eyes, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Jiang Deng secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he found that Bai Ziyi had no intention of asking further questions. Fortunately, he had fooled the person.
Although she did not feel that she was in the wrong for not protecting Bai Sitang, after all, her second disciple used her spiritual sense to create Bai Sitang without her permission and caused trouble for her.
What's more, it wasn't her who killed Bai Sitang.
However, considering that the battle between immortals and demons has not been completely resolved yet, it is not appropriate to break up with the second disciple, so Jiang Deng had to hold back.
The three of them came all the way to the place where the extraterritorial demons were stationed.
From a distance, several demon kings spotted Bai Ziyi, and they immediately stepped forward to greet him, "Master, you're here!"
"Master, why are you with them..."
The Demon King of Five Senses glanced at Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng suspiciously.
He really couldn't understand why the leader was trying to capture these two people just two days ago, so why are they reconciled now? Could it be that these two people have drugged the leader?
Bai Ziyi wasn't as self-willed as his fellow apprentices. He patiently explained, "They... I had a misunderstanding with them before, but it's been resolved now."
The Five Senses Demon King felt strange again.
Didn't the leader call himself "this leader" before? Why is he calling himself "this saint" now?
The name Demon Lord changes every day, it's really strange...
"Alright," Bai Ziyi gave the order directly: "Call all the extraterritorial demons and have them come over!"
"Yes, Master."
So, the Five Senses Demon King and his men quickly summoned all the extraterritorial demons. It was a black mass. They stood in front of Bai Ziyi, waiting for the orders of Bai Ziyi, the Demon Lord.
Seeing that all the extraterritorial demons had arrived, Jiang Deng breathed a sigh of relief and said to Bai Ziyi, "Second disciple, quickly give the order to take them back to the demon world. This way, our business will be done and we can leave."
"……good."
Bai Ziyi glanced at Jiang Deng and suddenly changed his tone, "Follow my command, surround these two!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the extraterritorial demons who had been prepared for a long time changed their formation instantly and surrounded Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng in three layers.
The demons from outside the realm sighed, "So it was a trick! I almost thought the Demon Lord was really going to let these two escape."
"As expected of the Demon Lord, he is indeed cunning and sly!"
"Nonsense, it's clearly insidious and cunning!"
…
In the center of the encirclement of the extraterritorial demons.
Jiang Deng looked at Bai Ziyi in disbelief, "Second disciple, what are you doing?"
Baili Chengfeng also realized that Bai Ziyi had suddenly betrayed them, and decisively stood in front of Jiang Deng, as if he was willing to stand by her side.
"Oh!"
Bai Ziyi smiled sadly, "Master, I know that Sitang is in trouble."
Jiang Deng felt guilty.
She didn't say, so how did the second disciple know?
Baili Chengfeng spoke up for Jiang Deng and said, "Medical Saint, you misunderstood. It wasn't Jiang Deng who did it. Bai Sitang's death had nothing to do with her."
"Whether they were related or not is not important anymore. Even if it was Master who killed Sitang, it was Master's right. I won't blame Master for this, but..."
Bai Ziyi stared at Jiang Deng intently. "Master, I just want to ask you, why don't you tell me the truth? Even though I've done so much for you, can't you still trust me completely?"
