Of course! With so many demons revealed just now, it was natural for people to misunderstand when the former Demon God happened to be nearby. To avoid the trouble of explaining, it was better for Long Lixing to leave temporarily.
Long Lixing's face darkened: "..."
What did she mean? Used and discarded? Heartless? Just ditching him because it was troublesome?
Thinking this, the man's expression gradually turned cold, a dangerous glint in his purple eyes as he stared directly at Jin Bao'er... his tone chilling!
"What do you think I am?"
Who wouldn't panic seeing this scene! Especially with the subtle undercurrent of killing intent surging, anyone with eyes could tell this arrogant man was angry! After all, provoking the dignity of a king was no small matter!
However, among those present, only Jin Bao'er, who was accustomed to his expression, felt a slight daze despite her subconscious wariness...
"What do I mean to you?"
Was it fate or coincidence! Ten thousand years later, this person had asked her the same question! But the difference was, beneath the same face, the tone and expression were different. But she wasn't afraid!
Seeing her ponder for a moment with a very serious expression, Long Lixing almost couldn't maintain his composure! His lips twitched slightly...
She was actually thinking about what he was?
Then Jin Bao'er looked up at the approaching Patriarch of the Linlang tribe, her brow furrowing slightly.
"If you really don't want to hide, that's fine. It'll just take a bit more talking!"
It had to be explained sooner or later anyway! It didn't matter if it was a little troublesome.
After speaking, when she withdrew her gaze, she noticed that the man beside her had already disappeared without a trace, not even leaving a wisp of his aura! Seeing this, she was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but curve her lips upwards!
"Princess Huahua! Thank you for your help!"
The Patriarch of the Linlang tribe had already seen her and began with words of gratitude. Although he was also puzzled as to why she had arrived so quickly from such a distance, given the current situation of their tribe, they certainly needed her special power, so he couldn't directly question it.
Jin Bao'er turned back, her expression returning to calm and indifferent.
"You're welcome. Patriarch Linlang should thoroughly investigate the immortals in your tribe! Such a massive demonic energy couldn't have formed in just a day or two!"
Her words were quite direct. How they would act was up to them.
Hearing this, the Patriarch of the Linlang tribe's expression faltered, and he quickly understood her meaning! A flicker of shock flashed in his eyes, and then he nodded solemnly.
Seeing that his expression was normal, Jin Bao'er then informed him of what she had just learned. After all, from their first meeting until now, she felt that the Patriarch of the Linlang tribe had good character!
As it turned out, the Patriarch of the Linlang tribe was quick to act! In just one night, by the next day, almost all the major noble families in the Upper Realm knew that the demon race had planted spies among them, and that there was a demon palace in the Linlang tribe!
Within two days, almost everyone in the Upper Realm knew about this matter. The Linlang tribe also became the first place to be put on high alert! After all, the Fanyin tribe had only revealed a secret chamber with demonic energy, while the Linlang tribe had directly revealed a demon palace!
Jin Bao'er did not leave, intending to keep watch on this barrier at all times. Given the large number of demons inside, and their strength being much greater than before, with some even recklessly冲撞着 the barrier, she had to stay nearby to prevent it from breaking.
At this moment, the entire Upper Realm was restless, the atmosphere falling into a strange silence, like the moment before a storm.
"The Dragon Tribe is arriving soon, aren't they? What exactly do you want to do? Do you think the Dragon Tribe and the Human Race joining forces again can defeat these demons!"
A magnetic and mocking voice reached her ears. Jin Bao'er didn't turn around, calmly observing the barrier outside the bamboo forest. She knew who was coming without turning.
However, she remained motionless!
"With the demon race's conspiracy exposed, they won't let us off easily! I have a premonition that this time, it will be the true war between immortals and demons!"
She couldn't tell if it was her imagination, but recently she had a feeling of wanting to leave. Perhaps it was the impending war, perhaps it was the threat posed by the demon race, or perhaps it was the worry about not yet knowing how to fuse with Long Lixing...
Long Lixing paused at her words and then burst into laughter! His tone was mocking and arrogant, with a hint of cruel killing intent!
"You're quite vigilant! I don't care! If that foolish Demon God dares to come out, I'll let him taste fear!"
Jin Bao'er remained silent. She wasn't sure how strong this Demon God would be. However, looking at the bloodthirsty, ugly demon staring intently at her, her heart couldn't help but become solemn.
Heavenly Dao Saint, Fourth Stage...
This was just the cultivation level of the demons that seemed to be most numerous among those trapped. If these were mere pawns, how strong would the true Demon God be? She feared it would be beyond her ability to intervene!
Even with her power that could counter the demon race, if the gap in strength was too large, even innate restraint might not guarantee victory! It seemed that at this moment, only the Dragon God and Long Lixing in the Upper Realm could rival him, but they hadn't fused yet...
Thinking of this, she turned to the man behind her, her voice a little unnatural.
"If one day, you have the chance to become one, would you agree?"
Her sudden question might have confused others, but Long Lixing's heart trembled! He frowned sharply, looking at her with icy eyes!
Perhaps sensing that she was merely asking a question, he finally mocked her after a moment of silence, a rather radiant and cold smile on his lips!
"Tsk... become one? What do you think?"
To become one with that guy again! Impossible! In his eyes, responsibility, justice, protection, fairness, and sanctity were all hypocritical! As powerful as he was, he should be an existence feared by the world... no one should command him! Restrain him!
Jin Bao'er sighed slightly! Seeing his resolute attitude, she couldn't understand how the complete him ten thousand years later had come to be.
Seeing that Jin Bao'er had fallen silent again, Long Lixing frowned, somewhat displeased.
"Do you really want us to become one? Why?"
Through their interactions over the past few days, he had already realized that Jin Bao'er had no romantic feelings or awe towards him. However, he didn't dislike this way of interacting. But that didn't mean he would follow her wishes. At this moment, he was genuinely curious why she had this idea.
However, the woman before him completely ignored him now! Her cold face showed no emotion! As if... she was angry?
Just as he was pondering, an extremely uncomfortable gaze was cast upon him, a cruel and violent stare that made him instinctively frown... and look towards the bamboo forest sealed by the barrier.
