Devour

Chapter 216 Being kept in the dark

Di Xuan's corpse, crawling on the ground, was like a deflated ball, lying limply on the ground. Not only was it as thin as a piece of paper, it was also shrinking and getting smaller, both its torso and head.

Chang Yufeng was agile and some masters were not slow either. When they ran to the front, there were already more than ten people surrounding them.

Seeing this, he asked, "Everyone worked together to finally kill the big devil behind the secret realm. Did you get any treasures?"

Gou Shangniang's wolf transformation technique has expired, and her appearance has returned to normal. She shook her head and sighed, "Where did the treasure come from? All that's left is this demon skin."

Bard said excitedly: "The demon skin is a treasure to me, a secret pattern master. It is better to let it belong to me and make the most of it."

"A large number of treasures also appeared in this battle, and the quantity is extremely rich." Mo Ruo pointed to the wreckage beside him and said: "Look, it's the material of the puppet that was melted there, the Qingguang Copper Mother."

The Arcane Black Eagle is an energy puppet. When it is destroyed, smoke and fire disappear and it returns to the world. After the bronze titan is melted, some of its remains remain, which are very valuable.

Chang Yufeng said hurriedly: "All the bronze Titans and arcane black eagles were driven here by our team of four to join the battle. We have made great contributions, so we should have a share of the treasures."

Dozens of monks of different heights, sizes, and attire gathered around, their faces filled with excitement, and they all shouted loudly.

"We are also participating in the battle, using our magic weapons to create opportunities for you all."

"The sect's secret treasure was blasted to pieces by the demon, and there was nothing left. The loss was heavy."

"Even my precious pot was destroyed. I will do my best to at least compensate me with a piece of Qingguang copper mother."

"How much is your chamber pot worth? Our flying swords and flying armor have all turned to ashes."

"We are both righteous and chivalrous people, so we should not favor one over the other."

Lin Zhengyuan waved his hand to signal for silence, and made the final decision: "The value of the demon skin is hard to determine, so it belongs to Ba Longtou. The Qingguang Tongmu will be divided into ten equal parts. The other four members of my team will each get 20%, Ba Longtou will get 10%, and the remaining 10% will be divided equally among you all. Stop making noise!"

As one of the best masters present and the one who made the first kill, he naturally has the most say.

Mo Ruo chimed in, "Everyone contributes different amounts of effort in a battle, and each gains different amounts of treasure. This is a just and fair move, and Pavilion Master Lin is deeply loved by the people."

When everyone heard that they all had a share, they smiled knowingly and praised the dish highly.

"Mo Longtou is right. We are all in this together. We should not be too concerned about gains and losses."

"The wise and insightful views of the Great Lord are admirable."

"Pavilion Master Lin is wise and powerful, and his righteous spirit is overwhelming. His peers all over the world stand in awe of him."

"Haoran's sword energy is invincible in the world, and it is always successful in exterminating demons and eliminating evil."

"Hero Lin is so righteous and upholds justice!"

The voices of praise rose one after another.

Chang Yufeng waited until the noise died down and interrupted to ask, "The demon has practiced the secret art of fire, and his power is extraordinary. Even most of the Qingguang Copper Mother has been evaporated, and the rest is at high temperature. How should we take and distribute it?"

Duanmu Jun discussed, "The metal and iron objects need to wait at least half a day to cool down. How about we cut them up at the end of Shen time today?"

Mo Ruo suggested: "No need to wait that long. My Black Ruins Cauldron can speed up the cooling and split accurately."

Chang Yufeng was quite satisfied with the result of the treasure distribution, and turned back excitedly to inform Cheng Bai and others.

When everyone was happy, they suddenly heard someone crying loudly, as if they had lost their parents.

The monks turned their heads and saw Jiang Cheng lying in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open, his face full of horror, a sharp piece of tree trunk sticking out of his chest, and his heart meridians were cut off and he died.

The scene was in chaos just now. Some monks were thrown far away by the huge force, some had broken arms and legs, and some even died on the spot. This scene was not surprising.

Mo Ruyu squatted beside him and howled, wiped away her few tears, stood up, and said loudly: "Foster father, please go in peace. I will live a good life for you, sacrifice myself for the public, and fulfill the greatest wish of the Shengmin Gang."

He turned and came to Lin Zhengyuan, and said bluntly: "My adoptive father risked his life for this battle, can you give me the share of the inheritance that he deserves?"

Lin Zhengyuan was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that someone would dare to make such a request to his face. He hadn't seen Jiang Cheng show up in any corner just now. But he couldn't tell what was wrong with it. It had to be divided up anyway, so what difference did it make if he had one more or one less?

So he simply said, "Okay. You can take two shares of the remaining ten percent that everyone should share equally."

Haoqi Mingwang spoke, and no one raised any objection.

Li Fengrun and Min Niuhao walked slowly behind Mo Ruyu.

Li Fengrun suggested: "Brother Mo is a sharp-witted and quick-witted person. He is a pillar of our generation. Would you like to join the Slaughter Society?"

Min Niuhao said softly: "If Brother Mo is willing to come to the Tumin Society, all kinds of martial arts, skills, and secret techniques will be at your fingertips. If we work together, we will have a bright future."

For the leader of a small sect in the martial arts world, the olive branch thrown by a major sect is of great importance, and in the eyes of most cultivators it is a sign of goodwill.

Mo Ruyu sobbed, "My foster father has been so kind to me, I must go back to the gang and take care of things. Please allow me to mourn for three years and fulfill my filial duty. During this time, I will consider your good advice carefully."

Min Niuhao said word by word: "The Tumin Society's secret Great Compassion Hand skill is much more advanced than Brother Mo's Collapse Heart Palm, and is more obscure and difficult to distinguish. Remember this."

Mo Ruyu's eyes twitched slightly, and he responded, "Thank you, Brother Min, for your concern and care. I will definitely come to visit you in three years."

Min Niuhao invited, "Three years is too long, and I also have trivial matters to deal with. Twenty days later, I will visit you in person." After that, he turned around and left with Li Fengrun.

Duanmu Jun laughed to himself in the back, "The Tumin Society is very wealthy, and they left without even taking the treasures. The other people's 10% can be divided a little more."

Cheng Bai watched everything happening from afar, and was horrified by the secrets that were hidden from the public.

He picked up the inheritance cube and whispered, "You have discovered something beyond doubt. Di Xuan's death was too fake. Although the Phoenix Force can detect abnormalities in the power of all things, it is also extremely obscure and difficult to distinguish. The spiritual eyes did not notice any obvious abnormalities. The others were dazzled by the apparent victory and were kept in the dark."

Li Tong said softly, "When Di Xuan's head fell off, a confusing fog rose up to cover it. His soul took away most of his energy and instantly took over his body. The old man and the young man were both spare chess pieces. They had been controlled and prepared long ago, so that no one could know about it."

This matter was too shocking to say out loud, so in order to avoid alarming Di Xuan, Cheng Bai did not make it public and continued to communicate with Li Tong's consciousness: "He entered Min Niuhao's body because he saw that his body was young and strong and could move easily. Li Fengrun's skills were higher, but Di Xuan did not lack that little skill, so he became his puppet assistant."

Li Tong asked, "What are you going to do?"

Cheng Bai asked, "Does it take Di Xuan twenty days to break through his body and be reborn?"

Li Tong said, "It won't take that long. With the cultivation level of a Divine Lord, more than an hour will be enough. Now they must be rushing to control the Tumin Society and expand their power. You are right not to expose him. Even if Di Xuan is currently just an ordinary cultivator, the masters present are powerless and will only increase casualties."

Cheng Bai recalled another major event that the Phoenix Force had detected just now. He was silent for a moment and said, "Jiang Cheng was killed by Min Niuhao's sneak attack with a tree stump through his chest. It was unexpected enough, but he didn't die immediately. I didn't expect Mo Ruyu to take the opportunity to break his heart meridian with a palm... Outsiders think that the father and son have a good relationship."

Suddenly I remembered that at the entrance to the sewer, Jiang Cheng ordered Mo Ruyu around and kicked her at will. It can't be said that they had a good relationship, but bullying had become a habit.

Li Tong said: "None of the emperor's sons are weak. He has been patient for a long time and seized the good opportunity to ascend to the throne."

Cheng Bai suddenly realized: "Now Mo Ruyu has become the legitimate successor of the Shengmin Gang. His status is respected and he has great power, which makes it convenient for him to act. However, Di Xuan has already set his sights on him and will come to seize the divine fire bloodline in twenty days."

Li Tong said: "If Di Xuan is allowed to develop, it will disrupt the balance of the Five Continents and will inevitably lead to bloodshed."

Cheng Bai thought for a moment and said, "If I tell Min Wushuang directly, he may not believe me. It is better to tell Nie Ziqiong about this. The cultivators in Wuzhou Continent are much stronger than those in Qiongqi Continent. Tuminhui is a great sect with a profound foundation, a large number of manpower, and many experts. Let them solve the problem on their own. They will definitely be much better than me."

He put away the inheritance cube and quietly sent out a talisman.
