Devil Sovereign: Consort Can’t Escape - C173
Xiao Yu knew what Mu Xiaoling wanted to ask, so he explained, “Back then, he got into an ambush and only had his head left. Someone made him this fake body, including his vocal cords.”
She smiled helplessly, “I am only living here.”
Mu Xiaoling asked, “Why do you say that?”
Wu Dao said, “This body’s consumption of true essence is too huge, and I’m just a cripple that’s still alive. How can I have true essence to maintain it?”
Xiao Yu sneered. “That’s why they came up with this idea and built this trial ground. They created this tablet as a temptation, letting in a group of people every few years and using something that no one wanted as a reward to exchange for the true essence of these trial takers.”
Mu Xiaoling, on the other hand, understood Xiao Yu’s intentions. The reason why they came to this secret realm in time was because this secret realm was opened by the trial grounds, and based on the circumstances of their bodies, they were able to determine whether or not they would open the secret realm. Every time they opened the secret realm, they would be lured here to participate in the trial.
Xiao Yu continued, “Only the eighth door is the true trial ground. The items in these three boxes aren’t bad. Go and choose one.”
Mu Xiaoling walked over and looked at the two boxes. Finally, she chose the one on the left. After opening it, there was actually an egg?
Xiao Yu nodded, “That’s right.”
He smiled wryly, “You actually chose the best item. This is a dragon egg, a living dragon egg.”
Because of the destruction of the entire clan, only this dragon egg remained. However, ten thousand years had passed since the ancient era, and this dragon egg had still not been born yet. Some people once speculated that a person with beast driving talent must be nurtured carefully, and there might still be a one in ten thousand chance of survival.
Mu Xiaoling picked up the dragon egg and attempted to probe it with her soul consciousness. However, just as she was about to put it on, she felt another wave of intimacy from the soul consciousness wrap around her.
It was the first time I’ve ever seen someone who could get a response from a dragon’s egg.
Xiao Yu laughed softly, “Her good points are not something you can understand.” And this only belonged to him.
After Mu Xiaoling placed the dragon egg into the space, everything went smoothly. After everything was over, she and Xiao Yu prepared to leave.
Pure silence: “Wait.”
Xiao Yu glanced at him. “What is it?”
“The side hall of the divine hall appeared in this secret realm a few days ago. I could feel the aura of the key from her body. Perhaps, you can go take a look.”
“Thank you.” Mu Xiaoling thanked him before pulling Xiao Yu out of the room.
At this moment, the crowd outside was in an uproar. The name of the second position, Mu Xiaoling, had once again disappeared.
The crowd swallowed a mouthful of saliva with great difficulty. It couldn’t be that they were pushed down by some genius, right? Or did they have to move up a bit …
Everyone’s gazes were focused on the first place, Xiao Yu. At that moment, Mu Xiaoling’s name appeared behind Xiao Yu’s name.
He was ranked first.
Number… First place?
Everyone became even more frenzied. Some admired and some worshipped, but there was no jealousy. This was because the disparity was too great. People could no longer afford to be jealous.
Right at this moment, the gate to the courtyard opened. Two people walked out. They were a man and a woman. They were both fairy-like characters, causing the crowd to stare at them.
Feng Jiuyang, on the other hand, saw the figure of Mu Xiaoling from the past, so he subconsciously opened his mouth and asked, “Little Ling?”
Mu Xiaoling nodded. “That’s me.”
Feng Jiuyang was shocked, “You … How did you become like this? ”
Mu Xiaoling said, “I met with some unforeseen events. I grew up a few years, so it wasn’t a big deal.”
Feng Jiuyang gazed at the man beside Mu Xiaoling.
Xiao Yu took out a jade guqin and passed it to Feng Jiuyang, “I’m her husband. These days Young Noble Feng, thank you for taking care of me.”
“Ancient Phoenix Nest Zither!” He used the zither as a weapon and had studied it the most. This zither was created by a craftsman in the ancient times and was a genuine saint artifact. It was something that only existed in legends!
Who was this person? How could he give such a great treasure so casually?
However, what followed was a strong sense of inferiority.
He then glanced at Mu Xiaoling and noticed that she was only glaring at him. She didn’t deny it and her heart was in unbearable pain.
“Alright, let’s go.” Mu Xiaoling said and was about to leave when three people blocked his path.
The three of them were dressed in the Zhong Family’s black tight suit. Lian Shan had a kind smile on his face as he asked, “May I ask if this lady is the little Miss Mu Xiao Ling from the Lin Sky Stele?”
Mu Xiaoling didn’t have any good feelings towards the Zhong Family. Especially when she had encountered those bad thoughts earlier. She coldly glanced at them and asked, “Is there something you need?”
The people of the Zhong family didn’t care. Which expert didn’t have a temper? “Lady Mu, are you willing to come to my Zhong family as a guest?”
The three people of the Zhong Family didn’t think that Mu Xiaoling would object. Ling Country was the number one country, and the three great families in Ling Country belonged to the Zhong Family. Who wouldn’t want to break their head and enter the Zhong Family?
Mu Xiaoling sneered. “I don’t want to.”
“Even though your ranking isn’t bad, you mustn’t refuse a toast and drink a forfeit!” The faces of those three changed, and one of them immediately came out and cursed.
Mu Xiaoling didn’t care. These people probably didn’t know that the young master of the Zhong Family was dead. She had killed him. How laughable was it for them to expect that she would enter the Zhong Family with such irreconcilable hatred.
Xiao Yu’s eyes narrowed, but he didn’t see Xiao Yu move. The three people of the Zhong Family flew up, their dantians shattered, blood spurting out, turning them into cripples in the blink of an eye.
“I know you don’t like killing people, so I’ll leave them with their lives.”
To be able to survive under the hands of the mighty Limitless Demon Lord was already their luck.
Mu Xiaoling couldn’t help but laugh as she shook her head before walking away.
With the three people of the Zhong Family as an example, no one dared to stop them anymore. The three of them quickly left the area.
Feng Jiuyang said while walking: “That day, Brother Xu and I agreed to meet at this place, but after so long, we still haven’t seen him return. I’m afraid something has happened.”
Xiao Yu was slightly surprised, “Xu Yi?”
Feng Jiuyang nodded, “Brother Xu lost his search for Xiao Qi.”
Mu Xiaoling said, “Which direction did they go in? Let’s go look for them.”
Xiao Yu also agreed, “Alright.”
The three of them changed their direction and led Feng Jiuyang east. About twenty to thirty miles away, a stone forest suddenly appeared in front of them.
There were many of these stones, and each of them was as tall as a person. Some were thin, some were long. Some were shaped like humans, some were like wild beasts, and some were even … Like a demon.
