Zhang Shentong's appearance saved Lin Ruchu's life.
But his face was extremely gloomy, and he said to Lin Ruchu without turning his head, "I still have a use for your life. This matter has nothing to do with you. Leave from here."
"Master, you must be careful."
Lin Ruchu's expression was somewhat gloomy.
He knew that Zhang Shentong's overall strength was only one level higher than his own, but Lin Jinglong's strength was definitely above Zhang Shentong's, because even he couldn't see through Lin Jinglong's true strength.
This shows that his strength is unfathomable.
In that case, who dares to say they can definitely defeat Lin Jinglong?
Perhaps there are people in this world who are more powerful than Lin Jinglong, but it is definitely not Zhang Shentong!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shentong revealed a contemptuous sneer.
He tossed the dark jade slip in his hand and slowly said to Lin Jinglong, "Don't forget, what you tamed was just a trace of the Heavenly Demon's will. The Heavenly Demon Sword itself had already been abandoned."
"Is that Sikong Tang next to you?"
"Heh, just a discarded piece of trash!"
"If you insist on persisting, I will summon the will of the Heavenly Demon and annihilate you both completely!"
Zhang Shentong uttered threatening words.
Seeing that he seemed to have a real way to deal with Lin Jinglong, Lin Ruchu, who was behind him, made his escape from the place as quickly as possible.
Lin Jinglong's attacks were blocked by Zhang Shentong several times.
Seeing that Lin Jinglong wouldn't even listen to his threats, Zhang Shentong was quite angry and embarrassed. He then growled at Sikong Tang, "Don't you know how powerful the Heavenly Demon's Will is?"
Sikongtang quietly blocked Lin Jinglong's path.
He said in a low voice, "Maybe we shouldn't act impulsively?"
"What do you mean? It's just a single inkstone."
"You don't understand, that's the awakener of the Heavenly Demon's will!"
Sikongtang's words were full of worry.
As someone who was once recognized by the will of the Heavenly Demon and who reigned supreme for a lifetime as the incarnation of the Heavenly Demon, his understanding of the origin and will of the Heavenly Demon far surpasses that of others.
Therefore, he understood the terrifying nature of that will.
Lin Jinglong's eyes flickered. He had already come into contact with the Heavenly Demon's will before, but he still couldn't control his bloodline and even wanted to refine himself into its physical body.
It's all just a joke.
That demonic will is nothing to worry about!
"If you're so capable, then activate the jade slip you mentioned. Otherwise, I will never let you go!"
Lin Jinglong said confidently to Zhang Shentong.
Zhang Shentong looked back and saw that Lin Ruchu had already run away. A look of relief appeared in his eyes.
The pressure on me finally wasn't so great anymore.
He still cared quite a bit about Lin Ruchu's existence, not because they had a deep master-disciple relationship, but because...
"As per the Demon Lord's instructions, Lin Ruchu is the most suitable incarnation of the Heavenly Demon that I have chosen. If anything happens to him, none of us will survive."
"Now that he has escaped, inviting the Demon Lord out shouldn't be considered a failure of my mission."
"Once the Demon Lord arrives, we'll deal with Lin Jinglong first!"
Zhang Shentong was unaware that Lin Jinglong had already come into contact with the Heavenly Demon's will, and had even devoured and tamed a wisp of that will. He simply felt that Lin Jinglong's talent for the Heavenly Demon's origin was simply too good.
Essentially, he was a more outstanding successor to the will of the Heavenly Demon, and should have become the incarnation of the Heavenly Demon, but they were ultimately not on the same path.
So he didn't think much of it.
Since Lin Jinglong can no longer be a fellow traveler.
Then the only option is to summon the Demon Lord.
"Kill him!"
Zhang Shentong's eyes were sinister.
He glared at Lin Jinglong through gritted teeth.
Then, a ball of demonic energy suddenly appeared in front of him. This ball of demonic energy was not under Sikongtang's control, and naturally it was not under Lin Jinglong's control either.
Even though he had tamed a large amount of the Heavenly Demon's essence, he still felt immense pressure when this ball of demonic energy appeared.
Afterward, the demonic energy solidified into black puppets in the shape of normal people. These people looked lifeless, only possessing demonic energy.
These dolls look distorted and bizarre, and they exude an aura of evil.
Even Zhang Shentong was taken aback.
"Twelve people in total, what does this mean?"
Just then, a voice echoed in the minds of everyone present.
A childish voice rang out, yet it carried a sinister quality. The owner of the voice spoke in a calm tone: "Zhang Shentong, it seems your mission has failed?"
"My lord, I have not failed. I have already found you a new place to stay!"
He said repeatedly.
The Demon Lord let out a strange, grating laugh.
There wasn't much harshness in what he said.
He knew that the place Zhang Shentong mentioned as a refuge was none other than Lin Ruchu, but as the will of the Heavenly Demon, he was not entirely satisfied with Lin Ruchu.
He was more concerned about Lin Jinglong.
Unfortunately, he also knew that he didn't have much of a chance.
Just then, all twelve strangely shaped demon generals walked towards Lin Jinglong. They seemed to have no reason whatsoever and were all in their demonic form.
We can only try to determine their identities in life by looking at their facial features.
Sikong Tang, who was standing next to Lin Jinglong, was suddenly horrified.
Why is my body here?
He stared in disbelief at the twelve demon generals before him.
The Demon Lord's voice came into his ears.
"Sikong Tang, don't forget, you were once my subordinate. I was just teaching you a lesson back then. If you realize your mistake, you can return to our Heavenly Demon camp."
Sikongtang fell silent.
He looked at the swaying demon generals in the crowd, and there was even his own body among them, which meant that his demonic body had not been destroyed over time.
Instead, it was still taken away by someone else.
He even doubted whether the skeleton on his body was his original body, or just a tool to deceive others.
But none of that matters anymore.
He has accepted the fact that he has become a Yin spirit.
As for the demonic figure ahead...
This made Sikongtang hesitate.
If we take action, wouldn't we be attacking ourselves?
He simply couldn't accept this outcome!
Lin Jinglong, standing to the side, looked ahead with amusement.
"What kind of bullshit demon lord is he? Hiding away like this, could it be that he was too scared to show himself after I scared him last time?"
"Lin Jinglong, you must not disrespect the Demon Lord!"
Zhang Shentong still maintained an extremely tough demeanor.
But Lin Jinglong still looked disdainful after hearing this.
He said casually, "Since you've already let Lin Ruchu go, I'll just have to collect some interest from you."
"Lin Jinglong, don't forget that I am the Lord of the Heavenly Demons. I can take back the source you possess at any time!"
The child's tender, sharp voice rang out again.
