Chapter 498: Chapter 465: Old Enemy_1
At this point, Lu Jingkong was gritting her teeth in resentment.
Before Xu Mu could ask, Lu Jingkong took the initiative to speak, “When I entered the depths of the Broken Space Secret Realm, these two guys never stopped giving me problems, even almost getting me killed! Now that I have the chance, I naturally want to take my revenge!”
“So, that’s how it is!”
Xu Mu nodded in acknowledgement.
The fact that there was a treasure hidden in the depths of the Broken Space Secret Realm was no secret. If Lu Jingkong could know about it, other cultivators from the Outer Sea could know it too.
“So, we will…make our move soon!”
Having made up his mind, Xu Mu was decisive and straightforward.
After reaching a consensus, Xu Mu’s figure gradually faded and disappeared, while Lu Jingkong without attempting to remain concealed, flew confidently outward.
…
“Hmm? There’s a reaction!”
The Blood Demon Ancestor, who had been meditating inside the formation, suddenly opened his eyes.
Then, squeezing the Finger Jue in his hand, a screen made of the Formation appeared before his eyes, displaying a slowly moving green dot.
As the spell changed, the screen changed accordingly, revealing the scenery of islands and seas.
Meanwhile, the green spot transformed into a figure of a heroic woman.
“It is indeed Lu Jingkong. I didn’t expect her to make it out alive!”
A hoarse voice sounded from the side. The Blood Demon Ancestor didn’t need to look back to know it was the Five Poisons God Monarch.
Ever since the Fire Demon Ancestor left twenty years ago, the only one who dared to appear here and talk so boldly was the Five Poisons God Monarch.
The two had been friends for hundreds of years, and their trust in each other was commendable.
“I also didn’t expect her to make it out alive.” The Blood Demon Ancestor frowned, not surprised but slightly puzzled.
Although it was his suggestion to guard the entrance of the Broken Space Secret Realm, thirty years later, he had stopped harboring much hope for Lu Jingkong to survive.
The reason he continued to stay here was to see things through and prepare for the next entry.
The treasures hidden in the depths of the Broken Space Secret Realm opened once every hundred years, and he had been stuck in the Nascent Soul middle-stage for a long time. If he didn’t find an opportunity, he might never advance in this lifetime.
That’s why he eagerly guarded here, relinquishing many rights in the outside world, allowing the Fire Demon Ancestor to gradually usurp his authority from the shadows.
In his view, enhancing his realm and survival were the fundamentals. Without breakthroughs, all rights held no meaning.
“If she managed to come out alive from that place, she must have gained considerable benefits. Either of us can kill her, and the resources gained would be enough to advance.” The Five Poisons God Monarch continued, “How can you still be unhappy, brother?”
“The dangers of that secret realm are well known to us. It’s already quite an achievement to come out alive. But look at her, not only is she unharmed, but she also managed to exit at this very moment. It’s indeed weird,” stated the Blood Demon Ancestor.
As those at the peak of the cultivation world for hundreds of years, none of them were fools.
None of them were reckless, even the hot-tempered Fire Demon Ancestor was astute and keen in reality.
Everyone has their masks on when dealing with others. If you can figure mostly everything about a person at first glance, there’s no point in hiding your intentions.
