"Haha, smart. You don't need to waste your time talking to smart people. What do you think?"

The group had almost reached the edge of the Death Forest, but just as they were about to dive in, a man in black appeared before them, blocking their way.

"How is it? Don't you know clearly? You and I have the same goal, which is to completely destroy the Ye family. Now that the goal has been achieved, an unknown factor has appeared, and all the previous efforts have been wasted. Don't you want to complete it as soon as possible?"

After hearing what the other party said, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord suddenly understood what was going on in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. Instead, he looked at the other party carefully.

"How is it? You and I are both dressed in black. As the saying goes, great minds think alike. You don't have to guess anymore. It's naturally to hide from others. You should understand what you should understand."

"Hahaha, I see. Now you and I can sit down and talk, right?"

The two men were dressed in black, shrouded in black robes, and had already agreed on a plan while chatting and laughing.

Half a quarter of an hour later...

"Haha, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation and achieve our wishes?"

As if by magic, the other party produced a bottle of fine wine and two wine glasses out of thin air, opened the bottle caps, and the aroma of wine filled the air and spread.

"Brother, happy cooperation, let's do..."

With a wave of his hand, the wine glass fell directly into the other person's hand.

"Dry……"

The two sides talked to each other from a distance, smashed the wine glass with a snap, and turned and left.

There are hundreds of thousands of mountains with peaks and ridges, and the headquarters of the Demonic Cult is located among them. At this moment, a painful roar was heard, and then it quickly became quiet.

"My Lord, I didn't expect that guy to be so powerful. I was injured in the fight with him. It took me seven days and seven nights to recover in the Heavenly Demon Blood Pool before my arm grew back. You can imagine how powerful his move was."

The Demon Blood Pool is a holy pool for healing that has been passed down in the Demon Cult for a long time. Every time an elder of the Demon Cult passes away, all his essence will be released into the pool. Over time, it has become very magical. No matter how seriously injured a person is, as long as he is still alive, he can be brought back to life.

At a certain moment, the blood was boiling, and a figure was lying there in sweat. The scream just now was made by him. After a lot of tossing and turning, he finally calmed down.

With his back to the other person, he responded, "What's the matter? Did your plan fail? Did you fail to complete the mission? You appear in front of me at this time, I don't need to guess, I know it too."

The man in the Demonic Blood Pool looked at his regrown broken arm with mixed feelings. He didn't know how to describe it.

He thought to himself, "Damn you, I will definitely find a chance to avenge you for your broken arm. Wait!"

"My Lord, ..."

The Demon Lord Tian was in a trance and recalled the scene of his broken arm that day. He couldn't understand how the other party did it. You have to know that he is the supreme ruler of the demon clan.

“My Lord…”

He asked again, and his subordinate, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord, asked several times in a row, which attracted the other party's attention.

He turned his head slowly, looked at the other person and said, "Tell me, what happened? I see you are in good spirits, did you get any unexpected gains?"

The Thousand-Faced Demon Lord did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and told the whole story in detail?

"What? I spent a lot of effort and used special means to preserve a trace of that boy's soul. I will find him a suitable body in the future and let him be reborn for my use. I didn't expect that they would still find out after using his aura. It seems that the Ye family has made full preparations. It will be quite difficult to be so calm in the future?"

The Demon Lord suddenly stood up from the pool of blood. His whole body was intact, his body was strong, his lines were smooth, and he had regained vigorous vitality. The broken arm grew back intact.

"My Lord, I didn't expect that you are in better condition than before. It seems that with the blessing of the Heavenly Demon Blood Pond, you have recovered perfectly. It seems that our revenge plan is just around the corner!"

This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

As his most loyal subordinate, he noticed every change in the other party and admired him from the bottom of his heart.

"Alright, stop being polite to me. How am I doing? Don't you know? I've been imprisoned for so long. Do you know better than me what it's like to live in that nine-story demon tower? My foundation has been damaged too much. I need to recover. It will take at least ten years to get back to my peak. This is the best preparation scenario. Otherwise, it will take longer."

Come here, I want to tell you something. You have to do it for me as soon as possible to speed up the process?

The Sky Demon Lord, no longer had the tired look he had when he was injured, and now he was full of energy again. He spoke with full energy, and with a wave of his hand, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord immediately came over.

"My Lord, is this appropriate? You know, the Ye family is the leader of the sword art in Zhongzhou and the lifelong enemy of our Tianmo Sect. If they find out about this, it will cause public outrage, and then we will be in trouble."

After hearing the other party's plan, even though he was one of the four great guardians, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord, he couldn't help but become worried and looked at the other party hesitantly, wondering whether he should do this?

After noticing his subordinate's hesitation, Tian Mo Zun looked directly at his subordinate and said very calmly: "Why? You can't do such a small thing? How can you become my left hand and right arm?"

While looking at him, I deliberately raised my voice and sounded a little more serious. The air temperature gradually dropped.

"I understand. Will I do it right away?"

After some hesitation, he could only do as he was told. He had no choice. He was one of the four guardians of the Heavenly Demon Sect and the person the other party valued the most.

"Boy, this is right, right? If you can't make up your mind to follow me to fight in the nine heavens and ten earths, how can you face strong enemies in the future? I'm waiting for your good news!"

"I understand, my lord, please rest assured."

After the two of them exchanged some words, the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord changed his form and disappeared from the man's sight. When he appeared again, he had already arrived outside a village.

"Sir, I have investigated and found out that this is a play involving the old, the young and the sick. The young men are out fighting in the battlefield."

A man in armor knelt on one leg and reported the findings to the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord in front of him, waiting for his decision?

"Action, no matter if you are male or female, young or old, weak or sick, bring them all here. If anyone resists, execute them on the spot. Do you understand?"

After a struggle, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes. Those who achieve great things do not care about trivial matters. Since it is the arrangement of the master, he can only carry it out without any reservation.

"Let's go to the next place..."

Some people were captured while they were still asleep. When they woke up, they had been taken to a strange place and imprisoned in a dark dungeon.

"Where is this place? We are going out. What on earth do you want to do? To capture us?"

"Stay still and don't ask so many questions. I'll naturally capture you and put you to use. Before that, you better behave yourself and don't act impulsively, otherwise this will be your fate."

He casually grabbed an old man from the prison, and then killed him with a knife.

"What do you want to do? Is there any law? You are not human. What is the difference between you and the devil?"

With a snap, in front of everyone, the other person's head fell to the ground and rolled beside the dungeon, scaring the people inside so much that they started trembling and couldn't even speak clearly.

"Sir, this is the last one. We have completed the mission. It is up to you whether we want to exceed the target or not."

It was a dark and windy night. With the cover of night, this group of mysterious people went to more than a dozen places in a row. No one was spared, regardless of whether they were old, weak, sick or disabled, they all disappeared without a trace. Until one moment, they finally attracted the attention of the Ye family, a giant in Zhongzhou.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly. At Feixian Pavilion, Elder Peak, the acting patriarch of the Ye family, the third elder, Ye Chongsan, had just woken up and was working and relaxing for a week when there was a knock on the door of his office.

"What's the matter? Why are you knocking on the door so early in the morning? What's the matter with disturbing people's sleep?"

After seeing who was coming clearly, he realized that it was his seventh brother.

"Third brother, something terrible has happened. There have been more than a dozen cases of people disappearing from villages along the border between Zhongzhou and several other states. I wonder what you think about this. The government officials have issued a notice asking us to cooperate with the investigation?"

Although the Zhongzhou Ye family has a superior status, its ties with the other party cannot be severed. They still have to give some face to each other and naturally go through the motions. This is unavoidable whether from their own perspective or from the other party's standpoint.

The Third Elder, Ye Chongsan was in doubt and quickly put down the work in his hands. He took three steps at a time and came to the Seventh Elder, looking at him seriously.

"Seventh brother, you must not joke with me about this matter. You know, it has only been a few months. Can the other party not wait any longer? Could it be that the boy's guess is wrong? This is impossible."

When he heard the other party's words, he had already made several plans in his mind, but he did not expect the other party to do this.

"Third brother, would I lie to you about this? Look, this is the message they sent us, begging for our support."

The Seventh Elder, Ye Chongqi, had already anticipated that the other party would have such a reaction, and he immediately took out a post with a gold cover from his pocket.

"Okay, since you said so, it is enough to prove that this matter is true and trustworthy. I will handle it. You go down first and arrange personnel to cooperate with the other party's investigation as soon as possible. We must find the murderer behind the scenes."

"Brother San, well, if that's the case, I'll go down first. Anyway, we still need to stabilize everyone's confidence first. Otherwise, before the demons come, the human race will be in disarray. How can we fight them then?"

The Seventh Elder, Ye Chongqi, was also a very smart person. When he saw his eldest brother say this, he guessed something and said nothing more. He disappeared in a flash.

"Boy, the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. I think you must know something."

The third elder, Ye Chongsan, looked up in a certain direction and had already made his own decision in his mind. When his seventh brother left, he also flew on his sword and rushed to Feilai Peak where Ye Xuan was.

"Third Elder, Third Uncle is already here, why are you so hesitant? There's no need to be so restrained when you come to see me. Tell me, what's the matter?"

While he was wandering at the entrance of the Ascension Cave, Ye Xuan's voice came from inside. In an instant, the other party came in front of him and looked at him with a smile on his face.
