And Tempering An Unsullied Body - Chapter 195

The Dragon Ball suddenly emitted a golden light, and then its shape actually changed.

The golden dragon scale slowly fell down, but because of the erosion of the black gas, it had lost its original luster and brightness.

In an instant, everyone’s faces turned extremely ugly. This was not a Dragon Ball, it was Gu Xi’s forgery.

Only then did Mei Qianmeng realize that she had been tricked by Gu Xi again!

“Please forgive me, Demon Venerable. It was Qianmeng who was deceived by that kid and actually believed that this was a Dragon Ball.”

Apart from Mei Qianmeng, everyone fell to their knees. The black gas was extremely violent and carried a gloomy and cold aura as it hovered above everyone’s heads. One could imagine that the Demon Venerable was in an extremely bad mood at the moment.

“What a bunch of trash! What use do I have for you? I even gave you the supreme weapon, yet you still can’t get a single Dragon Ball back.”

“Useless people–”

Layers of black gas surged like the clamor of an evil spirit. Countless pairs of vicious eyes were densely packed as they glared at the people kneeling on the ground. Only Mei Qianmeng saw such a terrifying scene.

She wanted to say something, but in the end, she remained silent.

…

Everyone had a bad feeling in their hearts. Although they did not see it, they could feel the shadow-like evil and maliciousness, like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, ready to fall at any time.

The cruel and bloodthirsty voice sounded like it came from hell, “Then go die!”

Everyone’s expression changed drastically, and the expression on their faces was extremely terrified,

“Demon Venerable, please spare my life, I…”

Before they could finish speaking, they could only hear screams rising and falling one after another.

The evil ghosts in the black fog could no longer hold themselves back and surrounded them one after another. In the blink of an eye, a pile of flesh and blood was reduced to nothingness, leaving only empty and shriveled skin on the ground.

Demon Venerable’s cruelty and bloodthirst were fully displayed. This scene made people’s hair stand on end,but Mei Qianmeng did not even blink her eyes, as if she was already used to it.

However, her long eyelashes were covered with a layer of shadow under her eyelids, making it impossible to see the expression on her face.

“Qianmeng, do you know why these people died?”

Mei Qianmeng raised her head and said calmly, “Because they are useless to the Demon Venerable. Naturally, there is no need for them to exist in this world.”

Obviously, the Demon Venerable was very satisfied with her answer. His cold voice had a strange tone.

“Qianmeng, you’re different from them. You’re the noblest Holy Maiden in our Demon Region. I’m sure you won’t disappoint me again next time, right?”

It was clearly a light sentence, but it was like a heavy hammer that landed heavily on Mei Qianmeng’s heart.

“Qianmeng will definitely not let the Demon Venerable down!”

She bent her knees and was about to kneel on the ground, but she was lifted up by the black gas. “I know about your ability, so there’s still an important thing for you to do next…”

When the black Qi dissipated and once again surged into the crevice, nothing changed except for the skin bags on the ground.

It was just that the sky above them was always misty, and no other colors could be seen. This place seemed to be a place forgotten by the sunlight, and there was only endless darkness.

Mei Qianmeng’s expression was complicated. At the spot where the black Qi had touched earlier, the cold chill had already spread from her knees to her entire body, but the corners of her mouth revealed a mocking smile.

…

Supreme Purity Sect sect, meeting hall.

“It’s been so long, why hasn’t there been any news from the Capital?”

Shen Tianyi frowned. Ever since Wu Huaqing had sent the news that Gu Xi had gone to the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, there had been no news of her. Right now, even life and death were at stake.

To be honest, he did not agree in his heart. Even he had heard of how dangerous the Primal Chaos Secret Realm was. As long as the Secret Realm was opened, the disciples of those large sects who entered would suffer heavy casualties.

Even if Gu Xi’s background was mysterious and he was quite capable, his strength alone could not change anything. The other sects were all in groups and had each other’s backs. Only Gu Xi was acting alone.

“Is there any news from the Gu Family?”

“The people we sent replied that the Gu Family didn’t receive any messages either.”

Shen Tianyi could not help but sigh. “If I had known that elder Wu would send a message, I would have stopped it.”

At that time, everyone had been overwhelmed by joy, so they did not think too much about it. Now that they thought about it, they could rely on Gu Xi’s achievements and reputation in the Capital’s Dao Conference.

Even if he did not go to the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, he would probably be able to obtain many good things, not to mention taking such a big risk.

Second Elder comforted him, “Shen Tianyi, there’s no need to think so much. Gu Xi has his own destiny, and he will definitely turn misfortune into luck. Moreover, danger and opportunity coexist. This trip to the Secret Realm might be a great opportunity.”

“What you said is true. It’s just that the Secret Realm is too dangerous. No one knows what will happen.”

Although Second Elder sent a message, he only said it vaguely. No one knew how powerful Gu Xi’s strength was on the battlefield.

“Since Elder Wu agreed to Gu Xi’s participation in the Primal Chaos Secret Realm, it must be his recognition. We don’t need to worry. We can rest assured and trust Elder Wu’s instincts.”

Even though he said so, Shen Tian’s face was still full of worry.

“I don’t know why, but I have this bad feeling in my heart. I keep feeling like something big is going to happen.”

He could not help but think of the worst-case scenario. If Gu Xi died in the Secret Realm, then everything that he had painstakingly obtained previously would all be for naught.

“Forget it, these are all Gu Xi’s choices. Since things have come to this, it’s useless for us to say anything more.”

“Sect Master! Elder! Something bad has happened!”

They heard a disciple running over in a hurry and falling to the ground. He was covered in blood and looked very disheveled.

Everyone was shocked. The Second Elder recognized that this was the gatekeeper disciple and stood up from his chair in shock. “Why are you in such a disheveled state?”

He used his spiritual sense to check and found that the disciple’s meridians were almost broken.

“what the .... happened?!”
