Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the floating city and the sky island orchard flew over the capital one after another.
Now, in the entire human world, only the capital city remains as a safe haven.
Survivors from surrounding towns also migrated here, bringing the population back to over 20 million, more than before.
Ten days passed quickly, and everyone, including all the strange things, was waiting for Xia Tianqiong to appear.
A heavy atmosphere permeated the capital. If Xia Tianqiong didn't show up, the Wolf King might very well target the capital first.
After all, he had fought hard to protect the capital, and in the Wolf King's eyes, this place should be very important to him.
This is a lot of people's, and many strange speculations.
The ten-day deadline had passed, and the wolf king was both anxious and furious.
He hurriedly arrived at the Sky Island Orchard and found Jun Shisan. "Your Majesty, I have failed in my duties and have not been able to force Xia Tianqiong to come out. Please punish me."
He lowered his wolf head, his face full of guilt.
He had previously vowed to the emperor that he would force Xia Tianqiong to reveal himself, but he had failed to do so.
Jun Shisan sat cross-legged in front of the bamboo house, his eyes closed, like an old monk in deep meditation, with a peaceful expression.
His injuries had long since healed, and his body and soul had been completely refined; he was currently cultivating.
For him, there was nothing else that interested him besides cultivation.
Without opening his eyes, he slowly said, "Xia Tianqiong obtained my consciousness and mastered the method of devouring true spirits. He must be hunting monsters and repairing his own true spirit, so he won't appear so soon."
The wolf king suddenly looked up, his eyes grave. "If we allow him to regain his true spirit, will he pose a threat to the king?"
Jun Shisan replied calmly, "It'll just add a little trouble!"
"That's alright."
The wolf king breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "We can't let him recover peacefully like this; we still need to force him out as soon as possible."
I plan to wipe out the entire capital, and then kill several of his important subordinates to put pressure on him. If he still doesn't come out, I'll keep killing him every day.
Jun Shisan suddenly frowned slightly.
He subconsciously rejected this approach. Although he didn't care about his reputation, doing so would definitely ruin it, perhaps even make him infamous for eternity.
Having been reincarnated so many times, I have always been straightforward and quick to forgive and punish, and have never done such a despicable thing.
I'm a little conflicted. Should I do this?
He suddenly recalled the scene of almost being crushed to death by the evil god, and that humiliation made it difficult for him to concentrate on his cultivation recently.
He wasn't without failures, but since his fifth incarnation, he had never encountered any setbacks and had crushed everyone he met.
Encountering a strong opponent unexpectedly made it difficult for him to adjust his mindset.
And what about the old man who appeared later? How did he know my secret?
Did the evil god of the upper realm already know everything about me?
This feeling was very unpleasant; every day made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He now desperately wants to devour Xia Tianqiong, become a Ghost God, and then go to the Upper Realm to see what's really going on.
Jun Shisan became increasingly agitated as he thought about it, making it difficult for him to calm down and cultivate.
He suddenly opened his eyes, a ferocious glint in them.
“Since you’ve chosen such underhanded methods, let’s go all the way. Spread the word that Qin Sixiang’s true spirit is in my hands. If he doesn’t appear, I will resurrect Qin Sixiang and let her consummate our marriage.”
The wolf king froze, staring in disbelief.
He never expected his lord to say such a thing; it shocked him.
He paused for a moment, then replied, "Okay, I'll take care of it right away."
...
This matter quickly spread among humans, who were still relatively unknown and knew little about Jun Shisan.
I just think he's a shameless guy.
But all the strange creatures had heard of Jun Shisan's great name and knew some of his deeds.
How could a powerful figure who was so arrogant that he looked down on the entire ghost realm possibly use such despicable means?
The vast majority of the strange creatures did not believe that this was his order, but instead thought that the Wolf King was forging an imperial edict.
The Capital Headquarters.
In the conference room, Mr. Huo, Director Zhang, Du Fuwei, and a group of officials gathered together once again, including several central leaders.
This Old Huo is the Old Huo of the mortal realm, an incarnation of the elusive god Old Huo from the upper realm.
He shook his head and sighed softly, "Jun Shisan has changed. He's stronger now, but he's not as upright as before. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing."
Director Zhang frowned. He didn't care about Jun Shisan; he only cared whether Xia Tianqiong would show up.
"I never imagined that the fate of humanity would ultimately be intertwined with Commander Xia's. I wonder if he will step forward again this time. Captain Du, have you sent people to spread the news in various places?"
Du Fuwei nodded slowly, "They were sent a long time ago. I don't think we need to worry. Commander Xia is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, and he certainly won't stand idly by."
Floating city.
In a certain courtyard, most of the core members are imprisoned.
Besides the White Wolf and other demon generals, there are also two demon kings guarding them, which shows that they are highly valued.
They also heard the latest news that the Ghost Bride could be resurrected, and they were all very happy.
Upon hearing that Jun Shisan was going to force the ghost bride into the bridal chamber, he was so angry that he almost rioted.
The delivery guy suddenly rushed in front of the white wolf Aye, glaring angrily, "This is the lord you follow? How could he be so despicable?"
White Wolf Aye's eyes darted away, a little embarrassed, but he still stubbornly replied, "It's just a tactic. Who told Xia Tianqiong to hide and refuse to show himself!"
The delivery guy was relatively polite and didn't start cursing.
Xiao Ba rushed over, pointing his finger at my nose and cursing, "You're all a bunch of trash, and your master is even worse. I thought he'd have some semblance of chivalry, but he's even more despicable than me! Bah! I despise him, and I despise you all!"
The surrounding Netherworld wolves were all cursed and looked ugly. White Wolf Aye snorted coldly and lashed out at Xiao Ba with his tail.
I almost beat him to death.
Even so, Hachi still stubbornly insisted, "When my master comes back, you will all die a horrible death!"
...
Meanwhile, Xia Tianqiong is hunting down strange creatures around the world to obtain true spirits.
Each time he devours a strange spirit, his own spirit is repaired to some extent, and the higher the level of the strange spirit, the better the repair effect.
Now, strange things are everywhere in the world, and there are many more fierce monsters and strange generals than before, which greatly speeds up his recovery.
In fact, he had already heard the wolf king's announcement of a ten-day limit, but he was not prepared and did not intend to go and die.
These past few days have been filled with a bizarre and frenzied killing spree, day and night.
His true spirit is now much stronger than before, and his talent has also improved a lot, but he always feels like something is missing, and he just can't break through to the level of a demon god.
He pondered it carefully and concluded that it might be because his own true spirit was somewhat different from the true spirit he had devoured.
Only by regaining his original true spirit can he be considered complete and ascend to the level of a demon god.
Just like Jun Shisan, he must devour him to advance; devouring other true spirits is useless.
Even knowing this, Xia Tianqiong still devoured a large amount of true spirit, preparing to use it for something else.
On this day, he heard the latest news from a human, and was overjoyed.
The true spirit of the haunted bride is actually in Jun Shisan's hands!
At that moment, he no longer hesitated and immediately went to find Jun Shisan.
