Chapter 29 The Demon Lord Becomes My Little Guard
"Take that monster for example. Its demonic energy surged in an instant, and all the wounds on its body healed instantly. Its five fingers transformed into sharp knives, and it soared up on the wind, attacking Sect Master Ling Xuan."
In the tavern, a storyteller was talking animatedly, adjusting his long beard and pausing at the climax, thus whetting the audience's appetite.
"Then what?"
“Stop suspense.”
"Yeah yeah"
It was noon now, and the tavern was packed with people. Many of them were listening with great interest and were urging others to come forward impatiently.
The storyteller smiled and said, "Master Ling Xuan dodged, holding a sword in his hand. It was shining, and a white tassel hung on the hilt. This sword is called White Tail."
"When the monster saw the white tail, it panicked and was dug out of its inner core by Sect Master Ling Xuan with a single blow."
The audience was abuzz with excitement and surprised voices. A man in plain clothes asked a question:
"How could a dignified Demon Lord lose his mind over a sword?"
The storyteller sneered and replied with a hint of arrogance.
"The White Tail is a divine sword. Back then, Sect Master Ling Xuan wielded the White Tail, helping the weak and suppressing the strong. He founded the Ling Xuan Sect and dug up the magic pill. It's a fact. As for the details, there's no need to delve into it."
This was indeed the truth, and the commoner knew he couldn't deny it, so he sat down and continued to listen to the story.
"After its inner elixir was dug out, the monster instantly collapsed to the ground. Sect Master Ling Xuan was kind-hearted and wanted to spare its life and seal it in the Ten Directions Formation. Unexpectedly, the monster secretly gathered its strength and transformed all its cultivation into a lightning formation, perishing along with the Sect Master! Alas, what a pity!"
The storyteller sighed deeply and shook his head.
At the back of the tavern, an inconspicuous figure shook his head after hearing the story.
The storyteller's story was half true and half false. It was true that Baiwei dug up the magic pill, but the monster's sneak attack was false. After all, he didn't even dare to fight back when he fell off the cliff.
My memory instantly went back to the cliff a hundred years ago, with cold wind and flying dust.
Li Chuan was dressed in black, his wild red hair flying in the wind. He was surrounded by countless black auras, with black threads crawling up his cheeks like venomous snakes from his neck. His pupils were dark red, and his teeth had grown fangs like vampires.
"For Wang Chaoyang, for your own empire, you want to wipe me out?"
At this moment, his eyes were full of disbelief, his hoarse voice was trembling in the wind, and he inexplicably felt a sense of pity.
Jiang Zhi's face showed no emotion. He suddenly raised the hand holding Bai Wei, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Li Chuan's chest.
Li Chuan laughed so hard that tears came out of the corners of his eyes.
He was just a monster derived from the evil thoughts of heaven, earth and mankind. He had no heart and no emotions, but at this moment he felt immense pain. His empty chest seemed to be torn into pieces and pierced with countless steel needles.
Only when he could no longer laugh did Li Chuan close his mouth and swallow hard the blood that was rising in his throat.
"Even so, let's do it."
After saying that, he closed his eyes resignedly, opened his arms as if waiting for her hug before, and waited for death.
No, it shouldn't be like this!
The development of the matter was completely beyond Jiang Zhi's expectations. The task given by the system was to dig out Li Chuan's inner elixir when his blackening value was the highest, but at this moment, his blackening value was only 20%.
He was betrayed and killed by the people he trusted, but he was willing to do it without any complaints.
As if he saw her surprise, Li Chuan smiled generously, and tenderness appeared in his scarlet eyes.
"It's my fault. I was born a monster, but I was selfish enough to tie you to my side and be cursed by everyone."
Jiang Zhi's body trembled, and the white tail slipped from his fingers to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
She never thought that this was the reason.
Li Chuan suddenly gathered the monsters and attacked her.
【Host, be careful! 】
Xiaobai reminded me in my mind
Jiang Zhi instantly formed a protective shield and enveloped himself in it.
However, the evil spirit went towards the white tail on the ground, and in an instant, the white tail was in Li Chuan's hands.
"No, Lichuan"
Jiang Zhi put away the protective shield, saw his intention, and rushed forward to try to snatch Baiwei back.
At this moment, there was no mission or use in her mind. She only knew that she didn't want Li Chuan to die.
A formation suddenly appeared under Li Chuan's feet, isolating her instantly.
Li Chuan raised the white tail and stabbed it into his chest.
The immense pain made Li Chuan clench his brows and his veins bulged, but he did not stop. He pulled out the white tail, inserted his five fingers into the wound, and dug out a golden bead.
That is his inner elixir.
Li Chuan threw the sword and the inner elixir to Jiang Zhi and smiled with satisfaction.
"Go, live forever in the sunshine"
Jiang Zhi caught the golden inner elixir, his hands trembling constantly, hot tears flowing from his eyes, drops falling onto the inner elixir.
Although the inner elixir had left his body and had no connection with him anymore, Li Chuan felt that he could feel the scorching temperature of the tears, which made his whole body ache.
Jiang Zhi was already crying, clutching the inner elixir and trying to put it back into Li Chuan's body.
Screw this mission, go to hell! I’m done with it!
However, the bead was pressed into the bloody hole in Li Chuan's chest, and then flowed back to Jiang Zhi's hand with the blood. Apart from bringing bursts of pain, there was no reaction at all.
"Host! Headquarters has issued a warning! Please do not do anything that goes against the mission!"
Xiaobai kept bombarding Jiang Zhi's mind, making him dizzy.
Jiang Zhi ignored it and blocked Xiaobai.
