Chapter 1142 Everyone Must Die
Jiang Qie shook his head. "That's not right. Taking action now will only alert the enemy. It's better to take advantage of their situation and see what they are up to."
Lei Che also nodded and said, "That's right! Since they want to enter the ruins too, let's pretend we know nothing and deal with them together once we're inside!"
Luo Li tapped her fingertips lightly, "That's right, there's no need for us to quarrel with them now. It won't be too late to settle the score in the ruins."
Just as they were discussing, the sound transmission stone on Luo Li's waist lit up.
It was Xie Shiyuan's voice, "Ali! Xingyan, Amu, and I will be able to reach the barren mountain tomorrow evening!"
At the same time, Feng Wuhen and the others also sent messages, arriving at about the same time as Xie Shiyuan and the others.
Luo Li tapped the sound transmission stone with her fingertips and responded, "Okay, we'll wait for you to join us."
Based on this calculation, forces from the Ninth Heaven like the Mu family and the Ji family will arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest.
She raised her eyes and looked at everyone. "Shi Yuan and the others will arrive tomorrow. By then, we will be more powerful."
Shen Fuzhou nodded slightly, "But we still need to be vigilant tonight. The people in the Demon God Temple will not sit still."
Di Xuanming's cold gaze swept across the perimeter of the camp, and he said in a low voice, "I'll go on patrol tonight."
Luo Li nodded, "Be careful."
After Di Xuanming left, Lei Che approached Luo Li and lowered his voice, "Luo Li, who is that Mo Xuan? I always feel that he looks at people with a sinister look."
Qianren folded his arms and snorted coldly, "You're just playing tricks on me."
Luo Li stroked the rim of her teacup with her fingertips and whispered, "His identity is currently uncertain, but he's definitely connected to the Demon God Temple. He's been secretly transmitting messages these past few days, and our people have intercepted him several times."
Jiang Qie was thoughtful, "So he deliberately led you to the Great Wilderness Ruins in order to..."
"The power of chaos." Luo Li's eyes were slightly cold. "Although this is just a guess, it's very likely. The Demon God Temple and the Nine Heavens are in urgent need of the power of chaos, and Mo Xuan's concern for my life story is probably for this reason."
Luo Li's eyes moved slightly. In this case, she had clearly hidden her identity when she was in Lingcheng. Even if the people in the Demon God Temple had some suspicions, they would not send Mo Xuan here so quickly.
So, if she had not revealed that she possessed the power of chaos, Mo Xuan might really know where his father was.
Because of their father, they suspected that they also had the power of chaos in their bodies.
And Shen Fuzhou frowned, “If that’s the case, then the people from the Demon God Temple will probably send a lot of people into the ruins.”
"That's fine." Luo Li sneered, "Aren't we just waiting for them to show up?"
As the night deepened, the camp gradually became quiet.
Mo Xuan stood alone under a dead tree, playing with a dark purple crystal with his fingertips, with a dim light flashing in his eyes.
Suddenly, there were light footsteps behind him.
Mo Xuan quickly put away the crystal, turned around and smiled gently, "It turns out to be my friend Luo Li. It's so late and you haven't rested yet?"
Luo Li approached slowly, her face looking particularly cold under the moonlight, "Senior, aren't you taking a break too?"
Mo Xuan chuckled, "I'm old, and I sleep lightly."
Luo Li's eyes fell on the hand where he had just hidden the crystal, and she smiled, "The crystal in your hand is somewhat similar to the one described by the six-winged golden roc."
Mo Xuan's expression remained unchanged. He opened his palm, and in it was an ordinary spirit stone. "Little friend Luo Li, you are joking. This is just an ordinary spirit stone."
Luo Li didn't expose the truth, but instead asked, "Senior, how much do you know about the Great Desolate Ruins?"
Mo Xuan stroked his beard, pretending to be in deep thought. "The Great Wilderness Ruins are relics left over from the Great Wilderness period. It is said that they contain countless treasures and inheritances. However, I only know the details from hearsay."
Luo Li nodded slightly, a hint of deep meaning flashing in her eyes, "I see. Then, have you ever heard of the rumors about the power of chaos in the ruins?"
A gleam of brilliance flashed across Mo Xuan's eyes, and then he shook his head and sighed, "Who has truly seen the power of chaos? Although it is rumored to be the most powerful law power, even more powerful than the laws of heaven, I have only seen sporadic records of it in ancient books. Why, is young friend Luo Li interested in this?"
Luo Li chuckled softly, her fingertips brushing the dark patterns on her sleeves. "Just a casual question. After all, I heard that the people from the Demon God Temple have moved. It can't be for some ordinary treasures."
Mo Xuan's eyes flickered slightly, but his smile remained unchanged. "The Demon God Temple acts cunningly. How could I possibly know their purpose?"
He looked up at the dark mountains in the distance and said quietly, "However, this Great Wilderness Ruins is extremely dangerous. Little friend Luo Li must be extra careful."
Luo Li followed his gaze and said calmly, "Thank you for the reminder, Senior."
A brief silence fell between the two, and the night wind blew through the dead branches, making a slight rustling sound.
After a moment, Luo Li turned around and said, "It's getting late, senior, you should go to bed early."
Mo Xuan nodded slightly, "Goodbye, little friend Luo Li."
When Luo Li's figure disappeared in the camp, the smile on Mo Xuan's face gradually faded.
He slowly spread out his palm, and the dark purple crystal reappeared, with strange patterns flowing on its surface.
"You're quite perceptive..." He murmured to himself, rubbing the crystal with his fingertips. "Unfortunately, this time, you all have to die."
At the same time, Luo Li returned to the tent and flicked her fingertips, and a soundproof barrier silently unfolded.
Shen Fuzhou walked out from the darkness and whispered, “How?”
Luo Li's eyes turned slightly cold. "He's lying. That crystal stone should be the medium used to communicate with the Demon God Temple."
Di Xuanming stepped in from outside the tent, holding a photo stone in his hand. "While you were talking just now, I used the photo stone to record his every move. The way he put the crystal away clearly showed that he was hiding something."
Lei Che came closer and stared at the image in the image stone. "This old fox is pretending to be quite convincing."
Luo Li pondered for a moment, "Let's not alert the enemy for now. We'll make plans after Shi Yuan and the others arrive tomorrow."
Qian Ren folded his arms and leaned against the tent pillar, snorting coldly: "Why not just capture him and torture him to extract a confession!"
Luo Li shook her head. "Since he dared to come here alone, he must have a backup plan. Acting rashly would only put us in a passive position."
Shen Fuzhou agreed, "That's right. Besides, we still need to use his hand to find out the purpose of the Demon God Temple this time."
As the night deepened, the campfire in the camp gradually died down, leaving only a few scattered sparks.
Di Xuanming appeared silently beside Luo Li and whispered, "There's some movement outside. It seems someone is approaching."
Luo Li's eyes narrowed, "Is it someone from the Demon God Temple?"
Di Xuanming shook his head. "The aura is well concealed. I can't confirm it for the time being."
Luo Li made a prompt decision, "Notify everyone and keep on guard in secret, but don't alert Mo Xuan."
Everyone acted quickly. Although the camp seemed calm on the surface, there were actually undercurrents.
