“Sect Master Lin, please forgive me. After receiving the ancestor’s instructions, I rushed to the Heavenly Demon Sect immediately. I didn’t expect to be a step slower than Huo Longteng.”
After Huo Longteng and his servant left, Yuan Xiaotian cupped his hands at Han Zhao with an apologetic expression.
“Brother Yuan, you’re being too serious. The fact that Lord Ape Demon sent you is enough to show how much he values the Heavenly Demon Sect. I still have to thank Brother Yuan for helping me out today. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know how to clean up the mess.”
Demon Han Zhao cupped his fists.
Yuan Xiaotian had arrived when he entered the hall and only appeared when Huo Longteng attacked. He probably wanted to see his strength and make him really break off ties with the Huo family and completely rely on the Yuan family.
Regarding this, Demon Han Zhao did not care. In any case, he was only temporarily finding a backer to obtain a buffer time for cultivation.
High risk often meant high benefits. The scene in front of him had appeared several times in the simulation. As long as he avoided a few key points in time, the risk would be minimized and the benefits would be maximized.
“Brother Lin, don’t worry. In principle, internal strife is strictly prohibited in the Martial God Alliance. Huo Longteng won’t dare to attack you openly.”
Seeing that Lin Zhan was RO sensible. Yuan Xiaotian became much more enthusiastic.
“I’ll have to rely on Brother Yuan in the future,” Demon Han Zhao said. Then, he changed the topic, “Our sect’s Great Elder, Shi Mingxiao, has also disappeared. I wonder why the Huo family is targeting the Heavenly Demon Sect. ”
“Cheng Chen is Huo Longtengs cousin and has a close relationship with the
Guardian Heavenly King, the Dragon King. Huo Longteng came to the Heavenly Demon Sect, which means that he has already investigated all the suspicious points.”
Yuan Xiaotian pondered. He felt that the disappearance of Shi Mingxiao, Gu
Yuanshun, Gu Wugui, and Cheng Chen must be related to Lin Zhan.
However, just like Huo Longteng, he did not have any evidence.
Moreover, it was common knowledge that Lin Zhan had been seriously injured and in seclusion previously. Even if his injuries recovered and he broke through to the Four Fiend Realm, it was almost impossible to kill these four people without anyone knowing unless he had strong reinforcements.
However, in the Northern Region, any top Martial Saint above the Five Fiend Realm was famous. Therefore, they would be able to find out sooner or later.
“l, Lin Zhan, can swear on my mental demons that if I killed these four people, nine Purple Firmament Divine Lightning will definitely descend and die a horrible death.” Demon Han Zhao swore on the spot, “l hope Brother
Yuan can help investigate and clear my name as soon as possible.”
The corners of Yuan Xiaotian’s mouth twitched when he heard that. The
Mental Demon Oath was indeed a heavy oath, but Lin Zhan was only at the Four Fiend Realm and might not have the chance to cultivate to the Perfected Seven Fiend Realm.
However, to him, he did not care about the truth.
Ancestor “Ape Demon” and the “Dragon King” were like fire and water, and their relationship was extremely bad. Unless it was something major that concerned the internal affairs of the Martial God Alliance, the Yuan family was willing to help the Huo family as long as it was something that could cause trouble.
Moreover, helping the Heavenly Demon Sect could obtain a lot of benefits.
The reason why the Gu family attacked the Heavenly Demon Sect was also because the Huo family had instructed them behind the scenes.
The Huo family’s “Heavenly Dragon Indestructible Body” and the Yuan family’s “Divine Ape Sensing Technique”, as well as the Yin Yang Hall’s “Indestructible Vajra Divine Technique”, were called the three great body tempering techniques of Jambu Sea.
Although the “Divine Ape Sensing Technique” was not a demonic technique and could not absorb the demonic energy in the demonic pool, it could also use the demonic energy to temper the body.
The “Dragon King” and the “Ape Demon” ancestor were both perfected Seven Fiend experts. Whoever took the next step first would change the structure of the Martial God Alliance.
“With our Yuan family’s connections, Huo Longteng doesn’t dare to be impudent. However, there are some things that 1 can’t say openly. 1 hope you can be careful.” Yuan Xiaotian was hinting at something.
“Thank you, Brother Yuan. If any Yuan family disciples need to use the Demon Pool in the future, you only need to inform me in advance. I’ll personally arrange it.”
Demon Han Zhao said seriously.
In any case, he had to go out to hunt Rank 3 demon beasts every once in a while. His main body and avatar had to go together to ensure his strongest combat strength to prevent any accidents. It was fine to lend the Demon Pool out during this period.
He had the Heavenly Demon Policy and the Nirvana True Demon Technique, two top-notch demonic techniques. His body was extremely powerful, but he had only dived about 500 meters below the Demon Pool. Even martial artists with higher realms than him would not be able to reach half of his depth if they did not cultivate the same top-notch demonic technique.
Even if he stayed at the bottom of the Demon Pool and used the Spirit Concealment Technique to conceal his aura, the other party would not be able to discover him.
“In that case, our Yuan family’s disciples will have to get closer to the Heavenly Demon Sect in the future,” Yuan Xiaotian said with a smile.
There were not many disciples of the Yuan family who had the qualifications to cultivate the Divine Ape Sensing Technique. In fact, not many people needed to use the Demon Pool. Most importantly, they could not let the Dragon King enter the Demon Pool to cultivate. When Ancestor Ape Demon’s seclusion ended, he might come to the Heavenly Demon Sect.
“Definitely.” Demon Han Zhao cupped his fists and bowed.
“In that case, I’ll come again when I need to use the Demon Pool in a few days.” As Yuan Xiaotian spoke, he was about to leave.
“I’ll send Brother Yuan off.” Demon Han Zhao sent Yuan Xiaotian all the way down the mountain.
“Brother Lin, take this opportunity to make more preparations. The situation of the Northern Region… is probably going to change!” Yuan Xiaotian looked up at the clear sky and sighed.
“Thank you for your advice, Brother Yuan,” Demon Han Zhao said seriously.
“Goodbye.” Yuan Xiaotian smiled and left.
“No matter how cunning you are, I’ll deal with the situation using my own strength!” Demon Han Zhao was full of confidence.
On the other side, after the middle-aged man who was injured by Demon Han Zhao caught up to Huo Longteng and boarded the ship, he fell to the ground and fell unconscious..
