In the second half of the night, the city gradually fell into silence, with only sporadic sounds of firecrackers occasionally echoing in the night sky.
Xiang Sheng swept his spiritual sense over and saw Luo Hai, who was practicing obediently in the backyard. He immediately withdrew his gaze, waved his sleeve to set up a barrier, took out the secret realm bead and placed it on the table.
When Wang Tuo saw her action, he immediately jumped to the table and slapped the secret realm bead with one claw.
The next moment, the secret realm bead emitted a hazy glow and the portal opened.
The remaining soul of the Skull Disaster suddenly emerged from it, condensed into a long and thin body, folded its wings on its back, clasped its fists, and respectfully called out "Master".
Before Xiang Sheng could say anything, Wang Tuo jumped in front of Lou Huo.
"The old man once said that the ancient demon race has died out, and only a few unconscious demon spirits remain in the remains of the demon god."
Wang Tuo's expression was strange, and his tone lacked any reverence. "I didn't expect that you, the first generation demon god, are still alive?"
At this point, Wang Tuo suddenly remembered the demon god statue that was the only thing that could be connected to Xiang Sheng, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
Has this old thing been hiding in the demon god statue?
One hundred years ago, in order to help Xiang Sheng find the Yuan embryo in the Ghost Gorge as quickly as possible, he suggested using the statue of the demon god as a guide.
For this purpose, he made a deal with the old man, the price being to enter the Demon God Valley.
Only family members know their own business. The demon gods are not good people. It can even be said that they are all insidious, cunning, cruel and ruthless.
Back then, Xiang Sheng was far less powerful than he is now, and was eroded by his demonic essence, making him at his weakest. It would be strange if this old man didn't have some evil intentions.
Seeing that Louhuo is so obedient now, it is probably because he was severely punished by Xiang Sheng in the past.
But when he thought about how he had willingly endured hardships in the Demon God Valley, and how he hadn't received any help, he had only brought more danger to Xiang Sheng...
Wang Tuo's eyes suddenly turned unfriendly when he looked at Lou Huo.
Lou Huo was also extremely dissatisfied with Wang Tuo's attitude.
He is of the same clan as Wang Tuo, but he is a real elder of the demon clan. Wang Tuo should respectfully call him "ancestor".
But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he didn't dare to show it in front of Xiang Sheng. He simply pretended not to hear what Wang Tuo said and turned to talk about business.
His ethereal body swung, holding up the palm-sized pocket mountain seal. "Master, I have been studying this treasure day and night for a while now, and finally I have come up with a solution to fulfill your trust."
Xiang Sheng supported his cheek with one hand, his brows half-closed, and said casually: "Tell me about it."
"Master, please look."
Skull Disaster's soul touched a spot on the mountain seal. After a burst of light, the emerald green mountain seal slowly became transparent. It could be seen that a group of consciousness inside it was constantly colliding in the four-sided space, but it was unable to break through the barrier.
"This is the spirit of Fang Cun Ji. If you want to refine Fang Cun Ji again, you must gain the recognition of this spirit again."
Skull Fire's expression was solemn. "But after observing for several days, I discovered that this spirit had long been controlled by the Pantheon through some means. After the death of its previous master, this spirit destroyed its will and fell into madness. There is no possibility of refining it anymore."
Xiang Sheng listened and narrowed his eyes slightly, "So what you mean is... first destroy the old spirit, then create a new one?"
"Master is wise!"
Lu Huo praised softly, "That's exactly what this old servant thought. This spirit is so tightly integrated with the Fang Cun Collection that it cannot be separated by ordinary means. Fortunately, the master has the Blood Ring. With the Blood Ring's ability to eliminate the old spirit, it won't take many days to completely eliminate it."
"And then you will take over, take over Fang Cun Ji, and become the new spirit?"
Wang Tuo, who had been watching from the sidelines, suddenly sneered when he heard this, "A soaring snake flies without feet. Although I don't know the specifics of your inherited talent, it must be related to space.
You are in the form of a remnant soul at the moment, so it is difficult for you to activate your talent. But if you control a space-related magic weapon and have something to rely on, I am afraid you will immediately shuttle through the void and escape, right? "
Suddenly, Lou Huo's past was exposed. He was shocked and angry. "Young Tiger, what do you know? This old slave's loyalty to his master is known to all, and I have never thought of escaping!"
"Can heaven and earth bear witness?"
Wang Tuo sneered, "Then why don't you hand in your slave contract?"
"Nuchi!"
Lou Huo's eyes widened, and he almost burst into a curse. "We are both members of the demon clan, how could you deceive your ancestors like this?"
"Brother, what kind of contract is a slave contract?"
Xiang Sheng interrupted at the right moment, curiously asking, "How does it compare to the Heavenly Dao Contract?"
“It’s different.”
Wang Tuo shook his head and continued, "The demon race values bloodline the most. The contract is a bet based on bloodline. If you violate the contract, you will trigger the rules set by the demon ancestor, and your bloodline will be stripped away, and your soul will be destroyed!
The slave contract is even more ruthless, handing over the master's control of body, mind and soul. The master can decide the slave's life or death with a single thought. If the slave dares to disobey the master in the slightest, it will trigger the rules of the demon ancestor and be destroyed in both body and soul! "
Lou Huo listened from the side, and his mind became unstable, sometimes flickering, sometimes scattering.
The slave contract was a method used by the demon tribe in ancient times to restrain their slaves. If one signed a slave contract, one must always put aside all distractions and not even a trace of selfishness.
Any evil thought would trigger the slave contract and lead to instant death on the spot.
Such means were too cruel even for the demon race, who had little affection for their own kind. Therefore, it didn't take long for the demon race in ancient times to be completely abolished. But now it was brought up by Wang Tuo.
Lou Huo's expression changed, revealing a sense of determination.
He was determined to follow Xiang Sheng all the way to the end, but if he really had to be tortured by such a harsh contract, he might as well just die.
Xiang Sheng glanced at Lou Huo thoughtfully, then pondered for a moment and said, "Besides this, are there any other binding contracts?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lou Huo suddenly looked up, with light in his eyes.
