I don't know if it was mixed with blood or sweat, but a lot of hair was clumped together, and a lot of scalp was exposed, making him look like a middle-aged balding man.
There was a huge hole in his chest, and you could even see through the hole to the wall behind him.
A normal person would probably die on the spot from such an injury, but the Demon Emperor's aura was still very calm, and his whole body was flashing with golden flames, obviously he was frantically repairing the wounds on his body with the Golden Crow Sacred Fire.
At this moment, the Demon Emperor also noticed something amiss, opened his eyes and looked over. When he saw Zu An and his group, he was stunned, never expecting it to be them.
The Golden Crow Prince hurriedly stood guard in front of the Demon Emperor, saying, "Don't even think about taking advantage of my father's misfortune. With me here, you won't be able to harm a single hair on his head."
Wu Liang's eyes darted around. In the battle between the Demon Emperor and Qiongqi, his cultivation level was too far inferior to that of the Golden Crow Prince, so he didn't go in to help. Now, the two of them still had their combat power intact.
He pondered whether he should seize this opportunity to betray his allies and join forces with Zaun to eliminate the Demon Emperor; otherwise, he might not survive under the Demon Emperor's control.
Seeing his son's filial piety, the Demon Emperor cursed him inwardly as a fool, thinking, "Isn't this just exposing my own shortcomings?"
He shoved the prince in front of him forward, staring intently at Zu An and his group: "I didn't expect you guys would actually dare to come here."
Zu An smiled slightly: "As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold. If you didn't have guts, how could you have encountered such a good opportunity?"
At this moment, the other three women, as if on the same wavelength, scattered and were ready to make their move at any time.
Wu Liang also quietly stood up, ready to make a move at any moment.
At the same time, I was also a little frustrated. These guys were all in pairs, and I was all alone. If I helped them, I wouldn't be able to defeat them all by myself.
Prince Jinwu swallowed hard, nervously watching Zu'an and the others. He was traumatized by Zu'an's attacks. Although he kept telling himself that his cultivation was superior to Zu'an's, his confidence in defeating him was dwindling after two crushing defeats and the loss of his divine artifact.
What's more, there are those women, none of them are easy to deal with.
"Did you really think you could take advantage of someone in distress? Too bad you're a little too late." At this moment, the Demon Emperor stood up. The hole in his right chest had completely healed, and an aura of a terrestrial immortal spread out. Apart from his disheveled appearance, he seemed to be unharmed.
Seeing that he had fully recovered from his injuries, Zuan and the others were shocked, and their hearts sank to the bottom.
If only he had come sooner! Now that he's recovered, the situation has completely reversed...
A mix of negative emotions welled up inside them, and the group felt somewhat frustrated.
Zu An's heart stirred, and he smiled as he sheathed his weapon: "Demon Emperor, what are you saying? We were trapped together in this unknown land. To meet again is no less than meeting an old friend in a foreign land. We are overjoyed, how could we think of taking advantage of someone in distress?"
The Demon Emperor was slightly taken aback, seemingly lost in thought, but did not retaliate.
Wu Liang almost choked on his saliva; this guy's shamelessness was quite similar to his own.
He immediately relaxed and abandoned the idea of making a move.
Crown Prince Jinwu said urgently, "Father, don't listen to him. This kid is just putting on airs because he sees you have recovered. Let's take this opportunity to deal with him together."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xuehen and the other two women all became wary, ready to make a move at any moment.
Jinwu frowned. How come their injuries have basically recovered after not seeing them for a while?
How could it be so fast!
Could it be some extraordinary encounter?
He turned his gaze away from the three women and looked at Zu'an: "How exactly did you break the puppet's curse seal?"
Zuan smiled slightly and said, "Of course I have my own methods."
He had an expression that said, "Do you think I would tell you such a secret?"
As expected, the Demon Emperor didn't ask any more questions: "Boy, I must say I admire you, especially that sentence you just said, 'Meeting an old friend in a foreign land.' This world is indeed a bit strange. Since we come from the same world, there's no need for infighting. Why don't we work together to solve the mysteries of this world?"
The Golden Crow Prince was anxious and was about to say something when his father stopped him with a gesture.
"That's exactly what I was thinking." Zu An agreed without hesitation, while giving the three women a look.
Having gone through so many life-and-death situations together, a group of people generally understand the meaning behind each other's eyes.
He did agree to cooperate, but warned everyone to be careful.
Cooperating with the Demon Emperor is tantamount to seeking help from a tiger, but unfortunately the Demon Emperor has recovered from his injuries, and taking action now would only result in mutual destruction.
The only thing that is puzzling is why the Demon Emperor would agree, after all, his cultivation level is higher than the others, and he also has the help of the Golden Crow Prince and Wu Liang.
However, they were all exceptionally intelligent and quickly realized that the Demon Emperor must have seen their arrival and used some secret technique to quickly recover from his injuries.
My Healing Game
Although this secret method is effective quickly, it is certainly not as good as a proper recovery from injuries, and may even have serious aftereffects.
In addition, this secret realm was fraught with danger, and he was unwilling to fight with the others, lest they all die here.
It's understandable that Zuan agreed. On one hand, they did need the information that the Demon Emperor and the others possessed. On the other hand, the Demon Emperor was currently recovering from his injuries in a hurry, and his combat power was at its peak. A decisive battle at this time would definitely come at a great cost, and as time went on, his combat power would only decrease.
Once they understood all of this, they felt relieved.
At this moment, Zu'an seized the opportunity to ask, "Your Majesty, what exactly is this place?"
Before the Demon Emperor could answer, an excited voice suddenly rang out: "Haha, Qiongqi is about to die, the four great seals are about to be broken, and I seem to have already sensed my father's presence."
