The Water God Palace elder, whose profile picture was "Roaring River," said calmly:
"Although it was only a brief exchange, I used 70% of my strength. Demon Eye, at most, 40%. I have no chance of winning a deathmatch against him."
"Based on preliminary estimates, it would take two elders to fight him to a draw. Of course, this is without considering items or the possibility of Demon Eye going berserk, slaughtering ordinary people, and using war to fuel war. You should be clear about the power and horror of an ancient god of war."
The Red Fire Gang elder scoffed:
"No matter how strong the ancient god of war is, even if he goes berserk and indiscriminately slaughters ordinary people to absorb essence and blood, he can't possibly be a match for the six of us alone." No matter how many variables there are on the battlefield, no matter how strong the ancient god of war is, he can't possibly take on six Sovereigns alone.
The White Tiger Troop's elder said in a sonorous voice:
"This has never been a question of whether we can win, but how to eliminate Demon Eye with the least cost. Demon Eye has been blatantly appearing in Songhai these past few days, counting on the fact that we wouldn't dare to make a move there. Of course, he wouldn't dare to fight us in a bustling city either."
Sovereign-level combat power is equivalent to a human-shaped bomber. Wherever they go, everything turns to scorched earth.
The stronger the Way of the Extraordinary, the more restrained they are in reality. After all, no one wants to be wanted by the Spirit Realm and become a wanted criminal with their location broadcast in real-time. Moreover, Spirit Realm's wanted list is aimed at all Way of the Extraordinary, regardless of whether they are orderly or evil.
Once wanted by the Spirit Realm, even Sovereigns will become "public enemies," and with a generous reward, both good and evil will attack them.
That's why the Songhai branch elders are so troubled. It's not difficult to solve Demon Eye with numerical superiority, but the difficulty lies in solving him "silently."
"To suppress the noise of the battle and not affect ordinary people, we must take Demon Eye away from the city or into a Secret Realm. Can Elder Gou's zoo trap Demon Eye?" the voice of the Zhishen Palace Master resonated in the conference room. Her voice was soft and beautiful, with a hint of nonchalance, as if she was lying lazily on a couch, casually chatting.
Rather than a serious, high-level meeting.
Based on the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, the Songhai branch elders contacted the Zhishen Palace Master after learning that Demon Eye Heavenly King had arrived in Songhai.
Although this woman is a wandering cultivator and a wanted criminal, the branch elders have flexible professional bottom lines. On the premise of dealing with Demon Eye Heavenly King, everyone is still good friends. Elder Gou said slowly:
"This rule-based item can trap Demon Eye without any problems, but the item's main body must be present. A projection can't trap Demon Eye. And although its main body is movable, it can't forcibly take people in. We have to get Demon Eye to voluntarily enter the zoo, but how do we get an ancient god of war to walk into a trap?"
Entering the zoo means there's no way out. Demon Eye can't possibly fall for that.
The Zhongting elder suddenly asked:
"Palace Master, how's the bait you released doing?" The Zhishen Palace Master said calmly:
"The bait has been targeted, but it hasn't been bitten yet. Demon Eye Heavenly King has a lot of patience. This person is usually eccentric, but on key issues, he doesn't have any flaws." The so-called bait was a puppet she arranged that deliberately appeared in the underground black market.
It only showed its face once, and the next day it was targeted. But the other party was very patient, maintaining secret observation without taking immediate action. The Zhongting elder pondered, "How about using the bait to lure Demon Eye into the zoo?"
The Zhishen Palace Master chuckled, "First of all, the bait isn't enough. Unless I personally act as bait. Secondly, Demon Eye Heavenly King's vertical eye can see through disguises. The zoo doesn't have the ability to hide its aura." The conference room fell silent for a moment.
A Sovereign-level evil class is just that troublesome.
The White Tiger Troop's elder sighed, "Demon Eye's ostentatious appearances these past few days are deliberately disgusting us, counting on the fact that we can't do anything about him, although he wouldn't dare to go for mutual destruction either." The official arena competition is about to open soon. If Demon Eye makes any noise in Songhai, headquarters will definitely hold us accountable.
Other branches will also laugh at the Songhai branch for its incompetence.
Most importantly, if Yuanshi Tianzun encounters an accident at this critical juncture, it would be a heavy slap in the face to the Five Elements Alliance.
In addition, who knows if Demon Eye is lurking in Songhai for another purpose. If everything is just a facade, and the real purpose is to hunt down the Songhai branch elders, then it concerns the safety of everyone present.
Therefore, the elders have been a little restless because Demon Eye's problem hasn't been solved. The Red Fire Gang elder endured it again and again, and finally couldn't help it, saying in a muffled voice:
"Ostentatious appearances, unscrupulous, deliberately disgusting us."
"Hmph, does he really think we're helpless? Since everyone has reservations, then no one has more confidence than anyone else. We might as well go for mutual destruction. I'll go find Demon Eye for a duel. We'll all be finished." No one in the conference room responded. The Zhishen Palace Master tutted, "What's the point of an elder saying such angry words?"
The Water God Palace's Luoshen elder sneered:
}%j6k.f;ym(v
"He's not just saying angry words. He's really capable of doing it. Never overestimate the wisdom and reason of a Fire Master."
The Zhishen Palace Master chuckled, "What did you officials say about me? You said that your elder is the real madman." At this time, Elder Gou said slowly, "I have an idea."
The conference room fell silent again. The four Sovereigns pricked up their ears and waited.
"It's not difficult to hide it from Demon Eye's senses and let him 'accidentally' enter the zoo. As long as a Nullifier makes a move to create an illusion, Demon Eye will not be able to discover the existence of the zoo." Nullifier is the name for a Sovereign-level illusionist.
The Red Fire Gang elder said unhappily, "Aren't you talking nonsense? How could a Nullifier be on our side."
He didn't know what he remembered, and suddenly stopped. The White Tiger Troop's elder smiled:
"Good idea. If that person can make a move, this matter will be stable."
After a pause, he added, "But we don't have enough face to ask him to move." The Luoshen elder suggested, "Let Yuanshi Tianzun come forward."
The Zhongting elder hesitated, "It's probably difficult for Yuanshi Tianzun to come forward. That person wouldn't make a move for an extraordinary Way of the Extraordinary. If he really does, we have to re-evaluate the value of Yuanshi Tianzun." "Everyone,"
The Zhishen Palace Master couldn't help but speak, with a hint of confusion and an unusual emotion:
"What are you talking about? Yuanshi Tianzun, when did he have such deep ties with a Nullifier? How come I don't know?" The Red Fire Gang elder snorted:
"Why do you need to know? Although you're close to Yuanshi Tianzun, he's still a member of my Five Elements Alliance after all. Do we have to tell you everything?" As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't know if he heard it wrong, but it seemed like the Zhishen Palace Master was grinding her teeth.
Elder Gou said:
"Then it's decided. I will notify Yuanshi Tianzun and ask him to come forward. Everyone, wait for news."
"The elders want me to come forward and ask Master Wuhen for help?"
At home, Zhang Yuanqing listened to Fu Qingyang's phone call, stunned.
Fu Qingyang said concisely, "Is there a problem?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned:
"But you also know that Master Wuhen is constantly fighting his inner demon. Once he loses control, his hostility will surge, and he may lose control." A Sovereign-level big shot should also lose his temper.
Fighting against the inner demon is about peace of mind, staying away from dust and strife.
Fu Qingyang said calmly, "It's just to let him create an illusion, no need to participate in the battle. Moreover, the elders and Wuhen don't have a basis of trust. Even if he wants to participate, the elders may not agree." "I'll give it a try"
baimengshu.
Zhang Yuanqing didn't dare to guarantee it.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yuanqing immediately put on the "Silencer" mask and went out. Ten minutes later, he took a taxi to Jinshan City. In the car, he looked at the scenery outside the window, lost in thought.
According to the elders' plan, if Master Wuhen is willing to make a move, solving Demon Eye is a sure thing. But the problem is, what if Master Wuhen is unwilling to make a move? My Yuanshi Tianzun's reputation doesn't seem to work very well for Buddhist big shots.
But Demon Eye Heavenly King must be solved. Hiding is a delaying tactic, it can't last. It's a matter of life and death, can't be an ostrich. When they come knocking on the door, everything will be over.
As the taxi was about to arrive at the Wuhen Hotel, Zhang Yuanqing had an idea in his mind. "Master, stop the car!"
Zhang Yuanqing shouted.
The driver didn't stop, "It's not here yet."
"I'll give you fifty yuan in cash, it won't be less than your fare."
The driver slammed on the brakes and stopped on the side of the road: "Have a good trip!"
Zhang Yuanqing paid the fare, got out of the car, came to a secluded place, and seeing that no one was around, took off the Silencer mask and quietly hid his figure. Then, he ran wildly towards the direction of the Wuhen Hotel.
At this time, it was still more than thirty kilometers away from the Wuhen Hotel.
With his current physical strength, it's not difficult to run thirty kilometers in a sprinting posture, but it wouldn't be easy to run it in the Night Wanderer state. When Zhang Yuanqing arrived outside the Wuhen Hotel, his physical strength had been exhausted, his face was pale, and sweat was like a flood.
"Huff, huff"
He appeared in the deserted area on the side of the hotel, leaning against the wall, hands on his knees, panting heavily.
So tired, the last time I was close to the limit was in Yin-Yang Town Zhang Yuanqing swallowed, but found that there was no saliva in his mouth to moisten his throat. After resting for a minute or two, Zhang Yuanqing staggered to the front of the building, pushed open the glass door of the Wuhen Hotel, and shouted loudly:
"Xiaoyuan, save me"
Xiaoyuan, who was in front of the counter, was looking down at her phone, startled, looked up, and saw the miserable state of Yuanshi Tianzun, her face changed drastically. She quickly dropped her phone and rushed over, her willow eyebrows standing on end, her cold and beautiful face full of murderous intent:
"Who hurt you?" Zhang Yuanqing "cried":
"It's that Demon Eye Heavenly King, he finally found me. A dignified Heavenly King is shameless and actually attacked a small character like me. If the branch elders hadn't rescued me, I'm afraid I would have died." Xiaoyuan frowned and gritted her teeth, "That mad dog."
She supported the Yuanshi Tianzun, whose legs were weak, and sat down on the resting chair next to her, and said, "You are"
"My old injury has relapsed," Zhang Yuanqing explained, quickly skipped the topic, and said, "That Demon Eye Heavenly King is too bullying, alas, Xiaoyuan, I don't know what to do." "He has already forced you to this point?" Xiaoyuan Auntie's pale face was full of solemnity.
Zhang Yuanqing took advantage of the situation and said, "The branch elders have actively formulated a plan to deal with Demon Eye, but a link in the plan has gone wrong. They need a powerful illusionist to participate. Xiaoyuan, I want to see Master Wuhen." "You want to let Master Wuhen make a move?" Xiaoyuan frowned and hesitated:
"You know it's inconvenient for him to make a move, and it violates the rules he set down. Master Wuhen is a very principled elder."
"It's just creating an illusion alas, that's what I told the elders, so I dare not stay in Songhai, I can only come to you." Zhang Yuanqing sighed and looked frustrated.
o!c$p:e$z9q.s9n%f8q
Xiaoyuan stared at him silently.
The Yuanshi Tianzun she knew was radiant, confident, and cheerful. She hadn't seen him for a few days, and he was already so dejected. It seemed that he had really been hit hard by the Demon Eye Heavenly King. A nameless anger surged in Xiaoyuan's heart.
Taking a deep breath, she pondered, "If it's just creating an illusion, I can take you to see Master Wuhen and speak for you." Zhang Yuanqing quickly grabbed her hand and said in surprise:
"Really?"
Xiaoyuan gently withdrew her hand and nodded.
The two immediately entered the depths of the hotel, took the elevator, and arrived at the door of Room 404. "Dong dong!"
Xiaoyuan bent her finger and knocked on the door:
"Master Wuhen, Yuanshi Tianzun has something to ask to see you."
After saying that, she tried to turn the doorknob. If the doorknob could be turned, it meant that Master Wuhen was willing to see him. Otherwise, he would not see him.
She easily turned the doorknob, and the surrounding scenery twisted and rippled.
In the blink of an eye, the two appeared in a quaint temple, with a caisson filled with gods and Buddhas overhead, and a golden Buddha in front, picking flowers and lowering his eyebrows, his eyes half-closed, seemingly compassionate and ferocious. Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath of the incense-filled air, put his hands together:
"Master, I have been targeted by the Demon Eye Heavenly King. I almost died in his hands yesterday. The elders of the Songhai branch have formulated a plan." He then relayed the action against Demon Eye to Master Wuhen.
Master Wuhen sat quietly, without responding.
Zhang Yuanqing bowed his head and worshiped: "Please save me, Master." Master Wuhen was still silent.
Xiaoyuan couldn't help but say: "Master, if it's just creating an illusion, it won't hinder your cultivation. Yuanshi is persecuted by Demon Eye. Your help doesn't break the rules." After a long silence, Master Wuhen's voice, suppressing pain, sounded:
"Yes!
"When the time comes, crush this jade talisman."
After saying that, a dark streamer flew out of his sleeve and landed at Zhang Yuanqing's feet. Zhang Yuanqing was overjoyed: "Thank you, Master."
The two did not stay and bowed to leave the ancient temple.
Zhang Yuanqing held the Dream Entering Jade Talisman in his hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to Xiaoyuan beside him and said, "I'll call to report first."
Xiaoyuan said calmly, "Why not just leave."
Too tired, want to drink some water and rest Zhang Yuanqing said seriously:
"Since I rarely come to Jinshan City, I of course want to spend more time with Auntie Xiaoyuan." Xiaoyuan was stunned when she heard it.
Zhang Yuanqing had already walked to the side, took out his phone, and dialed Fu Qingyang's number
