Chapter 556 - Chapter 556: Chapter 298: Demonic Thought Crisis_2 (2/2)
The young man was doubtful, as there were no Outsiders in the Land of the Lost, so he naturally didn’t know that Su Nan was an Outsider, nor did he know about Su Nan’s ability to quit the game.
Upon finding Su Nan’s traces disappear, the young man didn’t know how Su Nan managed to do it.
“Interesting.”
The young man looked at the place where Su Nan exited the game, his eyes filled with even greater interest.
After waiting for a while, upon realizing that Su Nan wouldn’t reappear anytime soon, the young man turned around and left.
In reality.
Su Nan looked awful.
In order to avoid the Demonic Thought, he purposely left Daxuan Royal City a day early and took a detour on the way. However, he never expected that Demonic Thought would still find him in the end.
With a sigh, he could only blame this incident on bad luck.
“Now I’m in trouble, I doubt that Demonic Thought will let me go easily.”
“All I can hope for now is that the power of the Ancient God Tomb will have an effect on that Demonic Thought.”
Escaping into the Ancient God Tomb was not a desperate move; he intended to use the power of the Ancient God Tomb to deal with the Demonic Thought.
Once inside the Ancient God Tomb, everyone would be on the same starting line. If the Demonic Thought was trapped forever in the Illusion Realm of the Ancient God Tomb, that would be the best outcome.
Checking the time, it was now just past ten o’clock in the morning in reality.
Having nothing better to do, Su Nan transformed into a flying bird and headed towards Song Mountain.
After his miraculous display last time, the number of tourists visiting Song Mountain continued to set new records every day.
With the storm approaching, the number of tourists visiting had soared once more, compared to previous days.
Countless tourists gathered at the foot of the mountain, and many even used it as a shelter. This brought a benefit to Su Nan, in that the speed at which incense and aspiration force were accumulating had increased.
By now, his Spirit of Divine Dao had grown to the size of a six-year-old child.
The speed of refining the incense fire aspiration force had more than doubled since the beginning!
In the hall, several demons appeared before Su Nan.
Su Nan looked at Xixue and asked, “How’s the recovery of your injuries?”
Xixue snorted coldly, dissatisfied, “The healing of a Divine Soul injury doesn’t happen that fast. It will take at least half a month for a full recovery.”
She paused for a moment as if she had thought of something, “Don’t expect me to help you deal with those Demon Kings. My strength has only recovered by seventy to eighty percent, and I’m no match for any of them.”
Clearly, Xixue knew the details about the ocean demons’ impending actions against the humans.
From her perspective, Su Nan would naturally try to stop those Demon Kings and continue to gain incense fire aspiration force here, which would inevitably require her help.
However, Su Nan wasn’t going to let her sit idle as a Demon King.
“Seventy or eighty percent is already enough.”
Su Nan nodded and said, “If those demons attack, you just need to deal with one Demon King.”
He had kept Xixue here for the purpose of dealing with the demons, and now was the time to use her.
Xixue immediately protested, “You want me to deal with other Demon Kings? Impossible! I only agreed to protect this place for you, but I didn’t agree to confront other Demon Kings.”
Su Nan simply ignored her protest and said indifferently, “You don’t have a choice.”
With that, he turned and left.
Watching Su Nan leave, Xixue gritted her teeth, “You bastard, once I undergo Bloodline Regression, return to Dongchen State, breakthrough to Emperor-level and find a way to remove the Bloodline Servant Imprint, I will make you pay tenfold.”
…
Returning to his residence, Su Nan prepared to sleep.
Since entering the Land of the Lost, he had spent the vast majority of his time in the game. Now that he had been discovered by the Demonic Thought, he finally had some time to rest.
Lying in bed, just about to fall asleep, his phone rang.
It was Wang Chong calling.
“Brother Nan, where are you now? Those demons will strike against us humans again soon. Do you want to come back? It’s safer here than in other places.”
Su Nan understood Wang Chong’s meaning and replied, “No need, I’m still at Song Mountain, it’s very safe here.”
“Still at Song Mountain?”
Wang Chong was surprised, then relieved, “Song Mountain is indeed safe; I heard Miss Bai mention that Lang Thirteen might be there, and the phenomenon last time might have been caused by him.”
Hearing this, Su Nan was slightly surprised, not expecting that people had already guessed the connection between him and Song Mountain.
However, thinking about it, he found it to be normal. Perhaps ordinary people could be easily deceived by him, but those Great God-level players and the higher-ups of the officials were not so simple to fool.
After turning down Wang Chong, the two chatted briefly before hanging up.
Time passed.
Soon it was 8 pm.
It was time for the Twelve Zodiac to open again.
