Seeing this, Yun He smiled helplessly.
“I’ll need everyone’s help with this Skill, but before that, I’ll have to get him to remove his transformation.”
“Of course!” The surrounding people agreed.
Meanwhile, in the sky…
After seeing Ling Yi’s inner thoughts and having his intelligence lowered, Shadow King spread his arms and laughed loudly after breaking up the four people in front of him again. “Hahahaha, my demon form can convert damage into stamina. As long as these four are still fighting me, I can maintain my transformed state forever!”
“Hahahahaha!”
Looking at the giant demon Shadow King laughing loudly in front of them, Luo Yuan and the other three were stunned.
“Is what he said true?” The fat Chen Dao asked Luo Yuan, standing on his Black Sparrow.
“It should be fake. The Shadow King is so smart. He wouldn’t be so silly as to tell us all this.” Luo Yuan replied.
“Yes, this could be a trap. Maybe… The truth is the exact opposite of what he said.” Nangong Han furrowed his brows as he tried to figure it out.
“Then what should we do?” The fiery-red wild Flame Witch looked at Luo Yuan.
As the head of the Treasure Alliance, Luo Yuan was a powerful official with great prestige and strength. The other three were willing to listen to his plans.
“The plan remains the same. Continue—”Before Luo Yuan could finish, the voice message appeared again.
[Luo Yuan and the other three felt that Shadow King was deliberately playing a trick to confuse them. In fact, it was true. He could indeed turn the damage he dealt from the enemy into physical strength.]
The four of them were stunned when they saw the message.
The 20,000 people below were also dumbfounded.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
“Why… Would the Shadow King reveal his weakness?”
“Maybe he said it on purpose so that Luo Yuan and the others wouldn’t make that conclusion, but he didn’t expect his inner voice to be exposed.”
“That makes sense. If this mysterious voice didn’t reveal his inner thoughts, Luo Yuan and the others would have been confused.”
“To be honest, I’ve been feeling that this Shadow King isn’t very smart since the beginning…”
“How is that possible? He’s the leader of the world’s second largest underground organization, if he didn’t have some tricks up his sleeve, would his people be so obedient?”
“…”
Luo Yuan and the other three in the sky were silent for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.
They did not question the authenticity of the voice message.
“Then we don’t need to attack anymore. We’ll just wear him down while trying to dodge.”
“Alright,” Nangong Han and the others replied.
However, before they could take action, the Shadow King in front of them suddenly stopped his attacks and laughed loudly. “Hahahaha! Interesting, interesting!”
“I took the risk to enter Shenxia this time because of this mysterious voice. Now that I see it, it’s indeed powerful!”
Luo Yuan and the other three’s mouths twitched.
‘Hey, hey, hey, you’ve already been exposed by it, yet you’re still praising it?’
“You can even tell that my demon form has such a characteristic. And you still expose that to this crowd!”
The crowd below looked at each other. ‘Weren’t you the one who exposes that secret yourself?’
“Hahaha! Since you’re so powerful, I’ll definitely use you to uncover the evil in people’s hearts and turn the world upside down once I get you!”
“Now, you better look for a way to escape!”
After the Shadow King laughed loudly, he lowered his giant demon head and looked around. When he saw the surprised expressions on everyone’s faces, he couldn’t help but laugh again. “Hahahaha!”
Luo Yuan and the other three were very confused.
“Why does the Shadow King look so happy today?”
“Is he in some sort of special state? He’s been acting so strangely.”
The crowd below also let out a series of questions.
“He’s been laughing this whole time… And hasn’t stopped…”
“Does he have some sort of plan up his sleeves?”
At this moment, the Shadow King stopped laughing and turned to look at the four people in front of him. His expression became serious. “I’m going to get serious, you guys better be careful!”
“Seven Star technique!”
“Phantom Backstab!” The crowd shouted when they saw Shadow King moving into action.
Then, he teleported behind the sword Saint of Gale, Nangong Han, and attacked him.
Nangong Han, who had been given heads up, dodged it easily.
Upon seeing this–
The Shadow King was stunned for a moment before he nodded. His dark red eyes revealed a hint of admiration. “Not bad, not bad. You actually dodged my attack. As expected of the Sword Saint of Gale, I’m starting to see you in a new light.”
Everyone was confused.
‘That was supposed to be a sneak attack??? Then why did you shout it to everybody?’
“But… Can you still dodge my next attack? Hmph. Demonic Refining Illusionary Killing Formation!”
The Shadow King waved his demonic hand at the Gale Sword Saint, and a strange dark gray Halo immediately enveloped Nangong Han’s body. No matter how he moved, he could not shake it off.
Then, under everyone’s gaze, Nangong Han’s body slowly came to a stop, and he swayed in the air as if he had lost his soul.
Luo Yuan and the others quickly called out, but it was to no avail.
“Hahahaha! This is my demon form’s unique Skill, magic refining illusionary killing array. Once hit, unless you receive an external attack, you will fall into an illusion until death!”
Hearing this, the Flame Witch, who was closest to Nangong Han, hesitated for a moment before throwing a small fireball at him.
The fireball struck Nangong Han’s body, and the flames scattered in all directions. It was like the nemesis of the gray Halo, driving it away.
Nangong Han paused for a moment, and his eyes immediately regained their clarity.
Seeing this, Luo Yuan and the other two people’s eyes widened and they quickly gathered together to talk in low voices.
“The Shadow King must be in a ‘special state’ right now. He looks like he’s become a stupid fool.”
“He actually told us how to break the Skill… He no longer acts like the sly slippery snake he was… He’s a fool now.”
“In his current state, we only need to say a few words and he might obediently cancel his transformation.”
The three of them looked at each other and immediately nodded in tacit agreement.
Luo Yuan flew a few meters forward and said to Shadow King in front of him, “As long as you remove your transformation, I’ll provide you with clues about the young man. How about it?”
“Didn’t you come here to seek revenge on him?”
The giant demon that Shadow King had transformed into was clearly stunned for a moment.
Everyone saw him pat his own head and exclaim, “Yeah, I almost forgot. The main reason I’m here is to look for that brat!”
“Good! Since you’re offering to provide the clues, you can’t go back on your word.” He said.
The giant devil’s body began to fade until it finally disappeared.
Luo Yuan was speechless when he saw that the other party had really removed the state by himself.
He raised his eyebrows and decided to confirm the other party’s condition. He asked, “Pardon me for asking, but can you only use your transformation Skill once a day?”
“Obviously!”
Shadow King was afraid that the other party would go back on his words, so he quickly said, “Speak! You said you have clues about that young man.”
Luo Yuan looked down in front of him and saw that Yun He of Emperor Star Financial Group was already preparing the Skills. He felt relieved.
He raised his head again and said to Shadow King, “The clue is… He’s a young man who’s not even thirty years old.”
He had thought that the other party would happily accept it, but unexpectedly, Shadow King’s eyes widened and he said angrily,”This is the clue you were talking about? Do you think I’m an idiot?”
‘Could it be… he wasn’t that stupid?’
Luo Yuan’s body tensed up subconsciously. He didn’t know that the man was even affected by the “Lowering-intelligence halo”, let alone know how long it would last.
He wondered if this guy had returned to normal.
“The so-called clues should at least include the location!” The Shadow King opposite him shouted.
“… He’s in the square?”
“Hahaha! Now that’s more like it!” The Shadow King laughed loudly.
