Chapter 13645 Secret conversation between three people
Chapter 13645: Three People's Secret Talk
There are ruins everywhere. The once tall and magnificent buildings have now turned into ruins, with broken bricks and stones scattered all over the ground.
The air was filled with a pungent smell of blood, and corpses were scattered everywhere, including disciples of the Demon Tower and some people whose identities were unknown. Blood gathered on the ground in puddles, as if telling of the tragic battle last night.
Ling Xiao was filled with sorrow and determination. He turned a deaf ear to all the tragic scenes around him and other irrelevant things, and only thought about finding the whereabouts of Chongruo. He hurriedly shuttled back and forth in this magic building full of ruins and debris, and looked around anxiously for Chongruo's body. He did not miss any corner or every piece of ruins, and did not miss any clues that might lead to Chongruo.
Sure enough, under a severely collapsed building, Ling Xiao found a familiar figure. The figure was buried under broken bricks and rubble, with only a part of it exposed, but Ling Xiao recognized it as Zhong Ruo with just one glance. His heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
He rushed over and carefully moved the heavy bricks and stones. Although he was eager, he was afraid to hurt the people below. When Zhongruo's body was completely in front of him, Ling Xiao's heart seemed to be stabbed. Zhongruo's body was already cold and lifeless, deader than dead. His face was as pale as paper, his eyes were closed, and his former heroic spirit and vitality had long disappeared, leaving only endless silence.
Ling Xiao slowly squatted down and gently picked up Zhong Ruo's body, his movements were so gentle that it seemed as if Zhong Ruo was just asleep. Holding Zhong Ruo, Ling Xiao's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the scene of their first meeting. At that time, he had just entered the Demon Tower, ignorant and confused, and it was Zhong Ruo who enthusiastically introduced him to Senior Brother Chongtian.
It was because of Chongruo's kindness that he had the opportunity to learn the method of cultivating the magic power, and through his own efforts, he cultivated the magic power to a subtle level. Chongruo's help and care for him were like a beacon in the darkness, illuminating his path of cultivation in the magic tower. Those days of practicing together and discussing the skills together seemed like yesterday, and they were still vivid in his mind.
"Brother, Ling Xiao swears here that no matter who killed you, I will kill him with my own hands!" Ling Xiao's voice was low and firm, with endless hatred and determination. He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the grief in his heart, and slowly put Chong Ruo's body into the magic needle space. He secretly decided in his heart that he must find the murderer and use the enemy's head to commemorate Chong Ruo's spirit in heaven.
After collecting Zhong Ruo's body, Ling Xiao suppressed his grief, gathered his spirits again, and continued to search for suspicious traces in the magic building. He did not miss any place that might hide clues, and he carefully checked every room and every passage.
Finally, in the once solemn and dignified but now in ruins, he actually found three people in the Demon Tower's Transmission Hall. These three figures stood out in the dead silence of the ruins, and Ling Xiao's eyes instantly became sharp. He knew that perhaps these three people would be the key to solving the truth of the Demon Tower tragedy.
In this devastated power transmission hall, Ling Xiao's eyes were instantly attracted by one of them. He knew this person, it was the former think tank of the Demon Tower - Mo Zhi. Mo Zhi has always been known for his meticulous mind and extraordinary wisdom, and has always played an important role in the Demon Tower.
He was wearing a black robe, with a slightly hunched body and an elusive expression on his face. In this dilapidated hall, he looked even more mysterious and eerie.
Ling Xiao was also familiar with the other two people. After all, he had a deep connection with them before. They were the Treasure Demon and the Book Demon. The Treasure Demon was tall and strong, exuding a greedy aura. His eyes wandered around the hall, as if he was looking for some precious treasure; the Book Demon was thin, his face was as pale as paper, and his eyes flashed with a cold light, which made people shudder.
"Mozhi, did you get the whereabouts of True Demon Nine Changes from Chongxuan?" Book Demon asked impatiently, his voice sharp and urgent, as if he couldn't wait to get the answer. He looked like a starving beast that smelled the scent of prey.
"That's right. The two of us agreed to cooperate with you in the beginning because of the Nine Transformations of the True Demon. If you know the whereabouts of the Nine Transformations of the True Demon, you must let us make a copy." Bao Mo also echoed. As he spoke, he rubbed his hands, his eyes full of greedy desire.
Mozhi glanced at the two of them coldly, his eyes were like the cold wind of winter, without a trace of warmth. He raised his head slightly, his tone was calm but revealed a trace of unquestionable majesty: "Zhongxuan is very stubborn and doesn't want to say anything. I am now imprisoning him in the Black Water Prison of Zhaixing Tower, and he has to endure the pain of corrosion every day. I believe that he will confess soon, so there is no need to worry."
As Mozhi spoke, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a cruel smile, as if he had seen Zhongxuan's surrender.
"But before that, we still have to search the Demon Tower." Mozhi continued, his eyes scanning the hall, as if thinking about where to start searching.
The Treasure Demon and the Book Demon looked at each other, their eyes full of calculation and suspicion. Then, they both looked at Mozhi with suspicion. They did not completely trust Mozhi. After all, the Nine Transformations of the True Demon was too tempting, and anyone might do anything to get it.
The Book Demon said grimly, "We are willing to betray our sect in order to cooperate with you. If Jiang Yuyan, the female demon, finds out, we will both die. Are you planning to take it all for yourself?" The Book Demon's voice echoed in the silent hall, with a hint of threat. He stared at Mozhi, trying to find a flaw in Mozhi's expression.
"Nonsense!" Mozhi suddenly shouted, his voice suddenly resounding in the hall, like a thunderclap. "The three of us are now on the same boat, why would I lie to you? If I really had the True Demon Nine Transformations, why would I come here to waste time? I would have found a place to practice by myself long ago."
There was a hint of anger in Mozhi's eyes, and he seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with the two people's suspicion. He folded his hands in front of his chest, and his body trembled slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
After hearing Mozhi's explanation, Treasure Demon and Book Demon thought about it carefully and felt that it seemed to be true. After all, in such a matter of great interests, everyone is deeply involved, and if one loses, everyone loses. If Mozhi really has obtained the Nine Transformations of the True Demon, there is really no need to deal with them here.
