"Just who …" Mu Xiaoling looked at Xiao Yu in shock.
Xiao Yu twitched his face. "I don't know."
"I am also in their midst, how could I let them succeed?" Mu Xiaoling snapped out of her daze and her face darkened. She definitely couldn't let this happen.
Xiao Yu sighed slightly, "In the end, you're slightly too weak. However, I'm still reluctant to see you suffer."
Mu Xiaoling didn't know what to say, but she could only stare blankly at Xiao Yu as her heart raced again.
Xiao Yu said, "Ran Xitang is not just a place for the Devil Sect in the lower realms. I've discovered some secrets, follow me."
Mu Xiaoling nodded. She saw Xiao Yu fiddling with a vase in the corner of the study, revealing a secret passage at the corner. She played with Xiao Yu until they reached a stone room.
The secret passage seemed to be a hidden pathway, so when he entered the stone room, he found that the stone room wasn't the main entrance, but rather a mechanism whose wall was cracked open. When Mu Xiaoling entered the room, she was blinded by a burst of light, and after she got used to it, she discovered a stone platform in the middle of the room.
"This is the Limitless Divine Mine." Xiao Yu also felt this to be inconceivable. Something like the Limitless Divine Mine had long since vanished from the upper realms. Even a nail sized piece of it when added to a weapon could produce a divine weapon, let alone such a large piece.
Seeing this, he even felt that this plan to steal away the heavens was not made by the demons from the lower realms, but rather by someone from the upper realms. However, if it was a normal plan to sneak in, then their strength would be controlled, but if the heavens were pierced, then there would naturally be no such restrictions in the lower realms.
However, who would go through so much trouble for what reason?
Mu Xiaoling had never been to the upper realms before, but with her past intuition, she was certain that this matter wasn't simple. She just didn't know what role this Boundless Divine Mine played in the entire plan.
"Don't you still have a suitable weapon? If the Everlasting Divine Mine was infused with the black dragon claw and the white tiger skin, you would be able to create a godly weapon." As Xiao Yu spoke, he reached out his hand towards the Limitless Divine Mine. Even though it was just a bare stone platform, there were all sorts of patterns imprinted on it. If he were to move his body, he would definitely die.
Xiao Yu seemed to have entered a realm where no one was around. He actually avoided all of the formations and grabbed the Limitless Divine Mine, then retreated as if there was no one around.
In this world, most likely only Demon Marshall Wu Yuan would be capable of such a feat.
Xiao Yu placed the stone on Mu Xiaoling's palm. "Put it away."
The corner of Mu Xiaoling's mouth twitched. "My spatial ring is still with you."
"That's right, then leave it to me." Xiao Yu lightly smiled as he put away the Limitless Divine Mine. Right at that moment, a huge beast roar sounded out from outside.
Xiao Yu's gaze went cold. "You noticed it quite quickly, let's go."
Mu Xiaoling nodded, and the two of them swiftly returned to the secret passageway. When they returned to the study room, Xiao Yu quickly took out Mu Xiaoling's spatial ring and personally gave it to Mu Xiaoling, "That old fox Qi He, it won't be long before he discovers the secret passageway. We'll leave now and leave this place first."
"Alright." Mu Xiaoling knew that the timing was urgent and immediately followed Xiao Yu out of the study.
Xiao Yu was quite familiar with the roads, so he brought Mu Xiaoling to avoid the crowd. However, just as they reached the first floor, Lin San suddenly appeared and blocked their path.
Lin San took off his mask, revealing his scarred face. Smiling, he said, "Emissary Xiao, are you in a hurry to go somewhere? Don't tell me that our West Tang isn't comfortable with you and wants to move somewhere else?"
Lin Sanjiu's face was completely destroyed, with countless knife scars covering his face, which made his smile look extremely sinister and terrifying.
However, Xiao Yu didn't take this seriously at all, and replied with a smile, "I just feel this underground air is heavy, I just want to go up to get some fresh air."
Lin Sanjiu's face darkened. "Who are you really?"
"I'm curious about that too." Before anyone arrived, a voice sounded out, following which, Qi He and his subordinates appeared at the other side of the corridor, surrounding Xiao Yu and Mu Xiaoling.
Qi He snorted, "I was wondering why the higher-ups sent an envoy all of a sudden. There must be something fishy about it. As expected, why haven't you handed over the Everlasting Divine Mine yet?"
"Leave Lin San's life to me." Xue Qing's lower body had already turned into a greyish black python tail. She lazily circled around a tree trunk as she basked in the sun. She felt that her entire body was not as smooth as it was now. Only a little bit of color could be seen in her vertical pupils.
"Alright." Mu Xiaoling answered and bit his finger. "With my blood, I'll summon your soul. If I don't use it now, when will I?"
A red light flashed as Xue Qing appeared in front of the crowd. She was clad in his red robe, her python tail half-revealed.
Lin San was startled and immediately recognized this person's identity. He said in disbelief, "Xueqing, you …" "How is this possible, didn't you die already?!"
"If you want to kill me, then you're qualified." Xue Qing sneered and swung her tail, sending a group of black clothed demonic cultivators flying.
"What the hell are you!" Lin Sanjiu had never seen someone who had the body of a snake with a human's face. Even his voice was trembling.
"Of course I'm Xue Qing. This is my sealed area. If I hadn't let you in out of boredom, how could you have built a hall here?" Xue Qing stuck out her tongue. "It's just a funny thing. In the end, you actually dared to set your mind on me. You really deserve to die."
Qi He had seen Xue Qing in books before, but it was only a casual book about strange beasts in the world. After feeling shocked, he could only find it inconceivable, "You are …. The Heaven Swallowing Python! "
Xue Qing grinned. Despite her current appearance, she was still extremely charming. "Old man, you are quite knowledgeable."
"I didn't expect that the Heaven Swallowing Python really existed in this world." Qi He muttered as he subconsciously took two steps back. However, when he thought of the consequences of backing up, he couldn't help but stop in his tracks and turn to look at Xiao Yu. "Who are you?"
Xiao Yu said indifferently, "This sovereign's surname is Xiao Yu."
Xiao Yu?
Qi He and Lin San shook their heads at the same time. They had never heard of this name before.
At this moment, Xue Qing remembered something as she stared at Xiao Yu in disbelief, "I once saw a book collection by the Demon Sect in the Upper Realm. At this moment, Xue Qing remembered something as she stared at Xiao Yu in disbelief," I once saw a book collection by the Demon Sect in the Upper Realm. When he thought of that forbidden technique, he became even more certain.
This time, Xiao Yu was slightly surprised. After all, there were extremely few people who knew of his name. "I never expected that there would still be people who knew of this sovereign."
"What!" Qi He and Lin San's faces instantly turned pale and they cried out in disbelief.
