Chapter 292: Ancient Demon Lineage
"About a month ago, my eldest brother and I attended a top auction held in Yuze City."
"To ordinary people outside, this auction is just like any other, nothing more than an ordinary one. However, many aristocratic families in several cities to our west have received inside information."
"What is it?" Luo Diandian pricked up his ears curiously.
But the man suddenly stopped and said, "I will only continue if you promise to let me go."
Luo Diandian frowned and kicked the man to the ground in anger.
Lu Wuhui: ...
"Are you mistaken? Now that you're in our hands, you still dare to negotiate? At worst, we can just kill you and capture people from other families, and that's it."
Luo Diandian showed a villain-like grin, "I see it's not that you don't want to say it, but you really want to taste my talisman!"
The runes that had just dissipated gathered together again
The man opened his eyes wide and begged for mercy.
"No, no, no, let me tell you! We aristocratic families have received an insider tip. There's an ultimate treasure in this auction that might allow a Spiritualization Stage cultivator to break through to the Supreme Realm!"
The next level? Lianxu period!!!
A huge wave instantly stirred up in Luo Diandian's heart.
If this kind of treasure were placed in the entire world of immortal cultivation, it would be a hot commodity and countless people would scramble for it. How could someone actually sell such a thing?
Could it be that the leak was released by the combined boss?
However, thinking about the beast tide behind, Luo Diandian felt that things were not that simple.
"So what was the last item auctioned?"
The man was frightened and stopped keeping the secret.
"It's the body of a great demon from the ancient demon race in the Lianxu stage."
A great monster from the ancient clan?
Luo Diandian muttered to herself, she knew something about this, there were eight ancient demon tribes distributed inside the Burial God Mountain.
The ancient demon lineage evolved from powerful demon beasts in ancient times and is regarded as the "nobles" of the entire demon world.
They are of pure blood, possess noble ancient blood, and are born with almost human intelligence.
While being able to change into human form at will, it can also revert to its ancestral demon form method, is not restricted by ordinary demon methods, and can maintain a huge body.
The key is that the ancient demon clan has extremely strong bloodline suppression on other ordinary demon beasts, and can even rely on bloodline to control and command ordinary demon beasts.
They can transform into human form at will, and their strength is not as weak as that of ordinary demons.
It is not quite accurate to say that it is an ancient monster in the Lianxu period, because the ancient monsters are only divided into the juvenile period, the growth period, the mature period, and the beast king in terms of strength.
The childhood period will last for many years, but once it reaches maturity, it will have the cultivation level of a human god.
It can be said that these ancient monsters and ordinary monsters are not of the same class at all. They are the rulers who occupy high positions in the monster clan.
The reason why Luo Diandian knew so much about it was because in the original novel, the third brother Bai Jiujun was the new generation demon king of the Feathered Fox Clan among the eight demon clans!
"It's fine if it's just a Lianxu monster, but it's actually from the ancient monster clan?"
And it just happened to fall into the hands of humans and be publicly auctioned?
"How can this auction be so powerful?" Luo Diandian was a little puzzled.
The man also shook his head. "We also wanted to find out who the person behind this was and how he was able to take the corpse from the eight ancient clans."
"Even with a large reward on the line, the auctioneer only revealed that the buyer was a mysterious man wearing a cloak. They even left the item at a designated location for someone to pick up."
Mysterious man?
Luo Dian Dian asked him, "So the body is hidden in this secret room?"
The man nodded, "But only part of it."
"Um?"
Luo Diandian was a little confused, and then continued to listen to him.
"Back then, when that mysterious person saw that all of our major families were interested in competing for it, he generously dismembered the corpse, scattering it into eight large pieces for us to fight over."
"Our Yu family spent most of our money to barely get a piece, and we are ready to have the best alchemist make a pill for a breakthrough."
This corpse could be in several pieces, but why are there exactly eight pieces?
Luo Diandian frowned, thinking about what Lu Wuhui had said before. Did he already know that the cause of this beast tide was these scattered corpses of giant demons?
It is now obvious that the ancient demon clan launched the beast tide just to get the corpse of the Lianxu ancient demon.
The identity of this ancient Lianxu demon must be extraordinary!
"In order to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation, I almost caused a wave of beasts to flatten the entire Zixu City, and even threatened to bring disaster to the human world. Don't you know?"
Luo Diandian was filled with righteous indignation. How could such a selfish person be considered a righteous person?
The man was silent. They naturally knew the origin of the beast tide, so they had already prepared to evacuate. Only after seeing the beast tide recede did they dare to run back and take away the corpses.
However, the real driving force behind this is not these aristocratic families; they are just being used as pawns.
The most important thing... is that mysterious man!
The importance of this ancient demon's body is self-evident, so how did he acquire it? And why did he openly put it up for auction, attracting so much attention?
Maybe, triggering this beast tide is what he wants!
It seems that as long as this corpse does not fall into the hands of the ancient demon clan, the beast tide will never stop!
"...I've told you everything I know. Could you please forgive me and let me go?"
The man knelt down and begged for mercy.
Luo Diandian glanced at him and said nothing.
But the next moment, the man's eyes widened and his whole body instantly lost its life force, and he no longer had to beg for mercy.
The talisman in Luo Diandian's hand scattered with the wind.
Giving him a quick death was her last act of mercy. After all, she would not hold back against anyone who wanted to kill her.
Looking at the two brothers of the Yu family lying on the ground, her expression was indescribable.
I didn't expect that just a small beast tide would have so many twists and turns behind it.
"You..." Luo Diandian then looked at the person next to him.
She was just about to tell him not to do such dangerous things alone in the future.
But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he swallowed them back thinking about his actions just now. It seemed that there was no danger to him.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, he was pulled over.
Lu Wuhui lowered his eyes and looked at the person in his arms, "Speak."
Luo Diandian: ...
I was forced to raise my head, and then I said out what I had just suppressed.
"Well, please tell me before you act next time. I...I'm a little worried about you."
Staring at the girl's wandering eyes and fair profile.
His eyes moved slightly, and he reached out and pinched her mouth into a chicken shape.
He said lightly, "It's not me who's going to say it first."
Luo Diandian was speechless for a moment. Was this matter really impossible to resolve?
But this time she was able to put herself in his shoes and understand how he felt at the time.
The heart-wrenching feeling of having one's heart squeezed is really not beautiful.
I had no choice but to scratch my head and ask, "Okay, okay, what do I need to do to make you forgive me?"
Hearing this, Lu Wuhui's eyes dimmed slightly and his gaze dropped downwards, his intentions were self-evident.
Luo Diandian:.
Xiaohuo had anticipated this and turned around very consciously.
╮(╯﹏╰)╭
Oh, its life is so miserable, why does it always have to face this kind of thing...
And, there are two people lying down here!
Fatty held his forehead with his paw.
Luo Diandian gritted his teeth.
He just kisses and knows how to kiss. Does he have any obsession with this?
But after hesitating for a while, he finally grabbed the shoulder of the person in front of him, jumped up and pecked him.
It was still a simple kiss on the cheek, but the person in front of him obviously enjoyed it very much, and his brows relaxed.
etc.
After the kiss, Luo Diandian suddenly realized that something was wrong. She seemed to have wanted to settle the score with this guy before, so how come she suddenly became the host?
Then what about the fact that he pretended to be weak in front of her and tricked her into protecting him?
ヽ(`Д′)︵ ┻━┻
Oh... forget it, after all, he is her Taoist partner.
