If the Lord of Demonic Palace could prolong his life, it would also be beneficial to Mingguang.
So when his son offered to help, Mingqian didn't notice anything wrong and nodded in agreement.
Soon, they were summoned from the hall and the three of them stepped over the threshold.
The hall was empty except for a shadow sitting on the throne.
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and saw the face on the throne clearly.
The man had white hair and beard, and an ordinary square face. His face was full of wrinkles, but he still looked majestic. His indifferent gaze fell on the three people below, as if he was looking at three ants.
At first glance, it does look like that.
But when Xiang Sheng focused his attention, he saw that the soul light between this person's eyebrows was dim, and he had not yet begun to transform. It was obvious that he had not even reached the out-of-body stage.
The Lord of Demonic Palace has been sitting firmly on the throne of overlord for many years, so why is he so cautious and even uses a substitute to test her when he sees her?
Or is it not a test, but... a last resort?
As she was thinking, the three people had already stood in the hall.
Ming Qian immediately bowed and said respectfully, "Palace Master, the rebel leader has been brought here."
While Mingqian was speaking, Mingguang also bowed silently. He lowered his head and glanced at the two people beside him, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
He has been paying attention to his father for many years and knows his father's words and deeds very well.
My father has a very high opinion of himself and never likes anyone to stand in front of him.
Before, when his father escorted the rebel leader, he had not noticed anything unusual.
Now that he had stood still, he was shocked to find that the rebel leader was standing half a body length in front of his father!
What's going on?
My father is narrow-minded and petty, how could he not have noticed it?
But if my father acquiesces, it means that the rebel leader is stronger than my father!
But this makes even less sense. If this girl is stronger than her father, how was she caught?
Could it be...
Mingguang quickly guessed what was going on. His heart was beating like thunder, but he showed no sign of abnormality on the surface.
He even gave up the idea of interfering and letting the Lord of Demonic Palace kill Xiang Sheng to ruin his father's plan.
"The rebel leader is actually a woman. This actually surprises me."
The Demonic Palace Master finally spoke up and got straight to the point: "You said you have a longevity pill?"
"yes."
Xiang Sheng bowed his head and clasped his hands, his voice trembling with a hint of trepidation: "I am willing to offer the elixir in exchange for a better future."
As he spoke, Xiang Sheng took out a pill, presented it with both hands, and raised it above his head.
The "Lord of the Demonic Palace" did not trust Ming Qian and signaled to Ming Guang with his eyes.
Mingguang stepped forward to take the pill, took a quick look at it, and suddenly a strange look appeared in his eyes.
The so-called longevity elixir that this woman mentioned was actually just an ordinary elixir.
Even if the assassination was to be carried out, the preparation of the elixir was too perfunctory, wasn't it?
Does he help cover it up, or does he just tell the truth?
Mingguang hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth: "Palace Master, this pill looks like an ordinary elixir."
This flaw is too obvious.
Even if he helped, he couldn't describe the magic of an ordinary elixir.
Upon hearing this, the Demon Palace Master's expression instantly turned cold, but before he could speak, Xiang Sheng hurriedly explained:
"My Lord Palace Master, please understand clearly that this pill only looks like an elixir, but its effects are completely different from those of an elixir.
It can not only eliminate the many hidden injuries left by negative energy, but also prolong life.
Moreover, when the longevity elixir was first refined, it looked like many stars surrounding the moon.
The one I present to you is not the main pill in the "moon" position, but the secondary pill in the "star" position.
The main elixir is also in my hand. My Lord Palace Master can try it to verify its authenticity."
Xiang Sheng spoke these words in detail and frankly.
Not to mention the "Master of Demonic Palace", even Mingguang couldn't help but waver.
Without giving it any more thought, he walked straight up to the platform and handed the pill to the "Lord of the Demonic Palace".
As a substitute, testing medicine is his job. It's just a secondary pill after all, so the master won't blame him if he eats it.
Moreover, the effects that Xiang Sheng described really made him feel itchy.
So the "Lord of the Demonic Palace" took the pill and swallowed it without saying a word.
As soon as the pill entered the mouth, it instantly turned into a hot current, flowing through every part of the body.
The "Lord of the Demonic Palace" suddenly felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring. His whole body was warm and extremely comfortable.
The hidden pain caused by the invasion of Yin energy and damaged meridians in his early years gradually subsided in this warmth.
The "Master of Demonic Palace" was overjoyed.
This is not the effect that a magic pill can produce. The pill presented by the rebel leader is real!
"You're pretty good."
The "Devil Heaven Palace Master" smiled and said, "Offer the main elixir to me, and I will spare your life!"
"Thank you, Palace Master!"
Xiang Sheng's excitement was apparent, and he didn't seem to be pretending. He immediately looked up and saw the smile on the face of the "Lord of the Demonic Palace", and greed appeared in his eyes again.
She hesitated for only a moment, then gritted her teeth and said:
"Palace Master, you haven't arranged my future yet."
The smile on the face of "The Lord of Demonic Palace" disappeared, and he felt annoyed.
He was so happy for a moment that he forgot to hide his true thoughts, which made the woman take advantage of him.
He was just a substitute and had no say in arranging a position for this woman.
He was just beginning to feel that it was difficult to deal with it when Mingguang, who was standing beside him, suddenly said:
"Why not take her directly to see the Palace Master?"
The Stand was shocked when he heard this and immediately refused through voice transmission: "No! If this angers the Master, both you and I will be in big trouble!"
Mingguang narrowed his eyes and continued, "As long as the longevity pill in this woman's hand is real, you and I don't have to worry about being blamed by the Palace Master."
The substitute's thoughts relaxed slightly: "That pill is indeed effective, but..."
"But what?"
Mingguang's tone turned cold: "Do you want to get your hands on the main pill?"
The stand-in panicked: "I didn't!"
"If you don't have it, don't touch the pill. Let the rebel leader deliver it to the Palace Master himself."
Mingguang said in a dangerous tone, "Otherwise, if something goes wrong, no one will be able to save your life."
The stand-in immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and with great difficulty managed to keep his expression steady, he stood up and said:
"Wait, follow me."
Mingqian was surprised when he heard this.
He naturally knew that the "Palace Master" in front of him was a substitute. The Palace Master was in seclusion all year round and had no life or death concerns. He should not be disturbed. Even he had not seen him for a long time.
However, it is normal for the palace lord to meet the person who offered the longevity elixir this time.
Thinking of this, Ming Qian responded respectfully, completely unaware that this time it was his substitute who took the initiative to go see the Palace Master.
Xiang Sheng happily followed, and at the same time took a deep look at Mingguang's back in front of him.
Although the communication between him and the stand-in just now was obscure, it did not escape her eyes.
The substitute was able to make the decision so quickly and take her to see the real Lord of Demonic Palace, and this person must have been the one who instigated it.
But she couldn't figure it out.
As the first holy son of the Demonic Palace, Mingguang has a prominent family background, a high position and power, and his future is bright.
When he was standing in front of the hall and looking at her just now, the hatred in his eyes was genuine. Why would he choose to help her now?
