Chapter 12780 No. 1 and No. 6

Chapter 12780 Number One and Number Six
"Junior understands." Ling Xiao bowed respectfully to the Demon Soul King, his tone full of gratitude and respect, "Senior's kindness will be remembered in my heart. If there is a chance, I will repay you with gratitude."

Immediately, Ling Xiao left the magic needle space and continued to move towards the spiritual road.

Watching Ling Xiao's back getting farther and farther away, tears could not help but slide silently from the Demon Soul King's eyes that had experienced many vicissitudes of life.

He murmured in a low voice, his voice filled with endless emotion and expectation: "Master, you were the soul of our Demon Spirit Sect and the faith of all of us.

Ever since you fell into the abyss of evil, I have been searching everywhere. After going through untold hardships, I finally found the young man who may be able to save you from the darkness.

He may be the destined savior. I hope he can shoulder this responsibility and not let us all down."

Just as the Demon Soul King was immersed in deep thought, a sudden voice broke the silence: "If this kid saves the sect master, what should he do?"

The Demon Soul King was startled for a moment, then regained his composure.

He was not surprised by the voice, because except for a very few people, no one knew that he, the Demon Soul King, actually possessed six complete souls, each of which carried a different mission and secret.

"The fate of that kid will ultimately depend on what the sect master thinks." The Demon Soul King pondered for a moment, his tone revealing an elusive depth. He knew very well that the sect master's one thought might determine the future of the young monk.

The voice sounded again, with a bit of urgency: "If this kid can obey the will of the sect master, he will naturally be protected and appreciated by the sect master, and his future will be bright. But, what if he doesn't obey?"

There was a sense of worry in his voice, as if he was full of uncertainty about Ling Xiao's future.

The Demon Soul King shook his head slightly, with a sneer on his face: "You seem to have forgotten that we are in the Demon Sect.

Here, the demon cultivators never care about feelings, and will not show mercy out of softness. If that kid really dares to disobey the will of the sect master, then what awaits him will be endless darkness and despair. "

However, the voice was not shaken by the words of the Demon Soul King. Instead, it said more firmly: "Humph, No. 1, you seem to have forgotten why the Demon Sect has fallen to its current state. It is precisely because we rely too much on strength and means and ignore the hearts and morality that we have led to today's decline. The Demon Sect needs to change, and the Sect Master is no exception!"

There was an unquestionable firmness in his voice, as if he had already made up his mind. He continued, "Looking at this kid, I feel that he has extraordinary potential and temperament. If he is trained well, it is not impossible to let him become the new leader of the Demon Sect in the future!"

In the deep hall of the Demon Soul Sect, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The voice of the Demon Soul King was filled with anger and confusion: "No. 6, you are simply crazy! How can you say such outrageous words? You are openly questioning the decision of the sect master and challenging the rules of the Demon Sect!"

Soul No. 6 was not moved at all. His voice was weak but firm: "Treason? You said I was treasonous, but aren't you ungrateful?

That kid's contribution to the Demon Sect is obvious to all. He has helped us through difficult times many times. However, now you want to leave his fate entirely to the Sect Master. How cold-hearted you are!"

Soul No. 6 paused, took a deep breath, and continued, “Okay, we don’t have to argue anymore.

As the spiritual consciousness of the Demon Soul King's incarnation, we need to expend a great deal of energy every time we speak.

But this time, I am willing to bet everything on this kid. I believe he has enough potential and ability to lead the Demon Sect to a more glorious future! "

After No. 6 said this, he stopped talking. The Demon Soul King was just a clone, and even the six souls were just six separate spiritual consciousnesses. It was very difficult for him to speak every time.

The Demon Soul King also closed his mouth and frowned.

He understood the determination and persistence of Soul No. 6, and also understood his trust and expectations for that kid. However, as the Demon Soul King, he had to carefully consider every decision and not ruin the future of the Demon Sect because of a momentary impulse.

The hall fell into silence again.

Although the conversation between the Demon Soul King and Soul No. 6 was brief, the emotional entanglement and power struggle were extremely complicated. They were both struggling and making choices for the future of the Demon Sect, and all of this depended on Ling Xiao's future development.

……

Ling Xiao naturally didn't know this, he only focused on moving towards the place where the Five Qi Demon Spirit was. As he went deeper, an invisible sense of oppression quietly came over him, but he did not retreat, instead he became more determined.

The Five-Engage Demon Spirits, these powerful beings, are actually the offspring created by the original Five-Engage Demon Spirits.

The original five-element demon spirits were honored as the Demon Spirit Kings by the Demon Sect. Their reputations were well-known in the Demon Sect, and everyone knew them. Every disciple of the Demon Sect would unconsciously show awe when mentioning this name.

Ling Xiao had naturally heard of the legend of the Demon King, and he knew very well what a powerful being he was about to face. Therefore, he took every step very carefully, fearing that he would accidentally trigger some mechanism and cause unnecessary trouble.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes full of vigilance. He observed the surroundings, looking for possible clues. He knew that only by understanding the characteristics of these evil spirits could he formulate more effective tactics to deal with them.

As he gradually approached his destination, the invisible sense of oppression became stronger and stronger. However, he was not frightened by it, but instead strengthened his determination.

Ling Xiao's steps were firm and swift. However, when he was about to approach the place where the Five Qi Demon Spirits were, two powerful demon spirits suddenly appeared, like two insurmountable mountains, standing in front of him.

Their eyes revealed disdain and provocation towards the invaders, but Ling Xiao showed no fear and just glanced at them indifferently.

He knew that a fight with these evil spirits was inevitable, so he tightened his grip on the long sword in his hand and signaled them to start.

Seeing this, the demons immediately launched a fierce attack, but these attacks were like child's play in Ling Xiao's eyes. He moved his body and shuttled through the demons' attacks like a ghost, easily dodging all the attacks.

When the evil spirits realized that their attacks had no effect on Ling Xiao, they began to show looks of panic.

However, Ling Xiao did not give them any chance to breathe.

He flashed and instantly appeared behind one of the demons. He swung the long sword in his hand, and with a "click", the demon fell down and turned into black smoke and dissipated into the air.
