Chapter 54: Puppet Demon Lord, the Hollowed Shell
"Zaihou Yiqizhao, long!"
With a delicate shout, a four-foot-tall, tortoise-shell-shaped object appeared above their heads.
There were seal characters with cloud patterns on its back, its round back facing upwards, its covered mouth facing downwards. A ray of light poured down amidst the buzzing sound, covering the eight people in the group.
The rolling sound waves were like turbulent water encountering rocks and reefs in the river, and automatically separated to both sides.
However, the mermaid whose acupoints were sealed was in bad luck. She could not use her third-level Nascent Soul cultivation, her spiritual energy stagnated, and blood gushed out of all her seven orifices under the impact of the sound waves.
Seeing this, Xie Qing, who felt a sense of kinship with Xiao Jingsheng, could not bear it and looked at him for help: "Master."
The call of "master" by Xie Qing also attracted everyone's attention and they were very surprised.
I originally thought that there must be some kind of transaction between the two, but I never thought that a Nascent Soul demon cultivator with supreme magical powers would actually serve Xiao Jingsheng, who is only in the Foundation Establishment stage, as his master.
Not to mention someone like Li Cangxuan who had personally witnessed the terrifying power of the Green Python Spirit, the muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch a few times.
The word "master" was more or less unexpected.
It completely overturned his previous understanding.
Junior Brother Xiao, you are worthy of being me!
Not picky about food at all!
The demon race has always been united, and it is already very difficult to let Xie Qing be their internal supporter. Xiao Jingsheng did not want to make things too extreme, so he looked at Luan Yu: "Uncle Master, please..."
Before Xiao Jingsheng could finish his words, Luan Yu waved her jade hand, and the magnificent light from the 'Zaihou Yiqi Zha' enveloped the unfortunate mermaid: "Alright, but you have a strong taste."
"Huh?"
Xiao Jingsheng was surprised, but saw Luan Yu looking at Xie Qing and Jiao Nu, then looked at Xiao Jingsheng's charming little face, making a "tsk tsk tsk" sound.
Xiao Jingsheng suddenly sprained his waist.
I thought to myself that it’s already this late and my uncle-master is still so frivolous.
However, after being interrupted by the other party, Xiao Jingsheng's nervousness eased a lot.
I was thinking, why is Jade Gourd Master strolling leisurely in the garden? Could he be sure of something?
Shi Lanxin was also very dissatisfied with her master's irrelevant remarks. Her eyebrows were raised and she shouted tenderly, "Master!"
“Okay, okay!”
Luan Yu shrugged, and at the same time removed the 'Zaihou Yiqi Shield' on the heads of several people, and looked solemnly into the depths of the palace: "Senior, I am Luan Yu, the second disciple of Master Jiang of Piaomiao Sect. This is related to the survival of the human and demon races. I hope to see you again!"
"Considering that you are still young and it is not easy for you to practice, leave quickly before I regret it!"
Even when Luan Yu introduced himself, the owner of the voice still did not give Luan Yu any face.
But his attitude made Luan Yu, who was originally a little apprehensive, completely relieved. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly and he said, "It seems that the senior is really seriously injured!"
The two armies are fighting, the enemy has come to your door, and you are kind enough to invite them back. If there is no other hidden motive, what else could it be?
At this moment, Luan Yu was basically certain that the information provided by Xiao Jingsheng was correct.
With his perfect cultivation in the realm of Dharma, it should be easy to keep a few people behind.
The magic weapon bestowed by the master was used just now just in case, so that I can use the Great Qiankun Shifting Method to escape safely.
The more lenient the other party's sentence is, the more it proves that he is guilty!
"presumptuous!"
"How dare you? Old Loach, I call you Senior because you are giving me face, but you think you are so insignificant?!"
As soon as the information was confirmed, Luan Yu's true nature was revealed. His chest shook, and he rushed towards the depths of the palace.
"Stay where you are, don't move around!"
It is said that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. When they learned that the Demon Lord was seriously injured, Xiao Jingsheng and others knew that this level of battle was not something they could participate in, so they stayed where they were.
Using the small teleportation technique, Luan Yu instantly crossed the corridor and arrived at the center of the main hall.
Within sight, there is a jade platform with gorgeous draperies and pearl curtains hanging in front of it. Indistinctly, one can see a tall figure wearing a golden crown, sitting contentedly on the jade couch. Maids on both sides are wearing hairpins hanging from their armpits, shawls and ribbons, and their long skirts are dragging along the couch. They are holding up long fans to constantly fan away the cool air.
Seeing this, Luan Yu couldn't help but feel suspicious. Didn't he say that he was seriously injured and recuperating?
It can be seen that the other party looks so relaxed and carefree, and does not look like he is hurt at all.
Luan Yu could sense clearly that when his spiritual consciousness extended to the front of the curtain, it seemed to encounter some obstruction and could not move forward even half an inch.
Judging from her experience, this was not a restriction spreading from the other party, but some magic weapon that isolated her perception and kept her out.
The more this happened, the more she felt there was something fishy going on, as if something was being deliberately concealed.
Moreover, even though I had forced my way in like this, the other party just sat on the jade platform and did not take any action. It really made me feel that it was deliberate.
Or is it that the other party does not take her seriously at all because of his own great perfection in the Dharma Realm?
Thinking of this, she quietly activated the 'Zaihou Yiqi Mask' in her sleeves and took another step forward.
"Swoosh!" It was this step of Luan Yu that was like triggering a mechanism. A shadow suddenly jumped out from the curtain and shot straight towards her heart. The speed was so fast that Luan Yu was very frightened.
However, she did not use the 'Zaihou Yiqi Mask' at the first opportunity. Instead, she took off the palm-sized jade gourd from her waist and wiped the bottle mouth with it. A sharp blade transformed from wine shot out.
Ding ding ding!!!
Countless crisp sounds instantly spread from the entire hall. Covering such a large area, the shuttle shadow also slowed down, revealing its true appearance, which was actually a blood-colored jade shuttle.
"Something from the Demonic Sect?" Luan Yu narrowed his eyes, and a somewhat absurd thought suddenly came to his mind.
Could it be that the Tianjiao demon clan has been...
Luan Yu's heart was shaken, and he no longer held back. He pinched the magic formula in his hand, and at the same time, a terrifying suction force surged out of the opened mouth of the jade gourd, swallowing the jade shuttle that was shooting towards him. At the same time, the curtain on the jade table also flew backwards with a "sizzling" sound.
What surprised her was that the two maids who appeared had pale faces, and there were no pupils in their eyes, only large areas of white. The movement of waving the fan was as stiff and awkward as that of a puppet.
The Tianjiao beast, which was revered as the demon lord by a group of demon cultivators, had a big hole in its chest and its cheeks were withered. It was obvious that its flesh and blood had been hollowed out, leaving it a skeleton in human skin.
Even though Luan Yu had expected this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
In other words, this seemingly life-and-death battlefield between the two major races is completely controlled by someone behind the scenes?
"Come out!" At this moment, Luan Yu's eyebrows suddenly jumped, as if he had caught something. He threw the Heaven-Swallowing Jade Gourd into the sky and turned the endless suction force to the maximum level.
Soon, the three people sitting on the jade couch could no longer keep their balance and left the couch one after another.
The figure hiding behind the three people finally revealed its true appearance. It turned out to be an old woman in gray with spiritual spider silk connected to her palm.
But after seeing that she was exposed, the old woman's wrinkled face showed no panic. Her sunken eye sockets glowed with a faint red light, and her grin was more like a mummy, making a creepy witch laugh: "Hehehehe~ As expected of Jiang Qingyi's direct disciple, you really have a way. But since you want to die so much, then leave your life behind!"
The aura that erupted from that hoarse and chilling laughter was undoubtedly the might that only a Dharma Realm master could possess, firmly overwhelming Luan Yu...
