Chapter 321 Why Do You Have To Go Back?
Chapter 321 Why Do You Have To Go Back?
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Jin Ling'er fell asleep again.
Meanwhile, Zhang Chi, carrying Jin Ling'er on his back, continued to flee.
The Demon Race and Gold Spirit Race had already begun their actions. In order to achieve their ultimate plan, they began searching the Secret Realm for traces left by outsiders.
Therefore, Zhang Chi activated his stealth mode.
His ability to conceal himself originated from the White Tiger, which belonged to the gold element. In this Secret Realm filled with an extremely dense gold attribute, it was incredibly easy for him to hide himself.
Without the guidance of the Cai Yu navigation system, the navigation provided by Gu Youyou was also not bad.
Under Zhang Chi's concealment, the Gold Spirit Race and Demon Race passed by him several times without noticing his presence.
As for Jin Ling'er, her entire body was enveloped by Zhang Chi's aura, almost merging with him. They couldn't detect Zhang Chi, so naturally they couldn't find Jin Ling'er either.
"Damn it, where is that person?"
The pursuers were running around like headless flies, and they were starting to get frustrated.
One of the Demon Race pursuers even shouted in anger, unaware that Zhang Chi was just a hundred meters away from him.
His companion, on the other hand, was more patient and persuaded him, "Anyway, we're just searching in this area. If we find him, it's an accomplishment. If we don't, well, we've done what we needed to do."
Obviously, this Demon Race had a lot of experience in the workplace.
Zhang Chi decided to follow these two Demon Race individuals. Perhaps he could gather some information.
Under the persuasion of his teammate, the irritable Demon Race calmed down a bit.
"I'm just worried that we won't be able to catch that person, and it might affect Lord Qi Yue's plan."
"Qi Yue?"
Gu Youyou reacted to this name.
Zhang Chi couldn't help but ask, "Who is Qi Yue?"
"She's a useless subordinate, not worth mentioning."
Gu Youyou said coldly, "Maybe I'm in trouble because of her."
"Uh..."
After all this time, you still don't know who is plotting against you?
Well, it's normal.
If Gu Youyou said she knew who her enemies were, Zhang Chi would find it abnormal.
With Gu Youyou's intelligence, she probably only knows a few enemies who have revealed themselves.
"Why do I feel like you're thinking of something insulting?"
"No, no, we're partners. How could I possibly insult you?"
"You better not."
Gu Youyou didn't believe a word of Zhang Chi's words.
Now she also began to focus on the conversation between the two Demon Race individuals, in preparation for the battle three days later.
In the past, when she fought against Demon Lord Qi Yue, it was just for fun. She could easily defeat her without much effort.
In terms of cultivation level, Demon Lord Qi Yue was only equivalent to the Dao Integration Realm, while Gu Youyou was already at the Three Calamities Realm, just one step away from becoming a Celestial Demon.
When they were at the same level, Gu Youyou could easily crush Qi Yue. But now, it might be a bit troublesome.
Although the irritable Demon Race had a bad temper, he was a loyal and hardworking young man.
In comparison, the old workaholic Demon Race was more clear-headed and knew that the matter had little to do with him. He just needed to do his job well.
"If His Majesty succeeds this time, the new position of Saintess will undoubtedly belong to him."
The irritable Demon Race began to look forward to the scene after Demon Lord Qi Yue took power, just like an employee waiting for the company to go public, even though they wouldn't actually benefit much from it.
Gu Youyou, on the other hand, was very angry as she listened.
This Demon Lord Qi Yue is indeed ambitious. She hasn't been in trouble for long, and she's already plotting to seize power.
Very well!
Gu Youyou began her incompetent rage.
The Demon Race doesn't care who becomes the Saintess. What does the change in high-level positions have to do with a lowly soldier like him?
But for now, they are following Demon Lord Qi Yue, so they naturally have to speak well.
"You make a good point. In the ten years since the Saintess disappeared, only our lord's strength and prestige have been the strongest. After this is done, no one should be able to compete with our lord."
"Yes, when our lord becomes the Saintess, won't we also be able to rise with her?"
"Hehe, that's right!"
As the two Demon Race soldiers spoke, they walked away. Zhang Chi did not follow them because he sensed that Gu Youyou was in a bad mood.
"Ten years... It has already been ten years!"
Gu Youyou became anxious.
She had always thought that she had awakened inside Zhang Chi's body after a long sleep, so she still had twenty years to prepare for her return as a king.
But after hearing the conversation between the two soldiers, she realized that she only had ten years left.
In ten years, with Zhang Chi's cultivation speed, he could at most break through to the Divine Soul realm.
"Jin Ling'er's Innate Gold Spirit Saint Body, I must obtain it!"
Gu Youyou gritted her teeth. She absolutely would not allow her things to be taken away by others!
She wanted to personally take back everything that belonged to her.
If she only had ten years, then Jin Ling'er's Innate Gold Spirit Saint Body would be the most important piece for her to return to the Demon Race.
Zhang Chi: "..."
After a moment of silence, Zhang Chi couldn't help but strike a blow, "By the way, with your strength, even if you go back late, can't you still defeat the newly appointed Saintess?
In the end, won't you still be the Saintess? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Gu Youyou: "..."
It seems like that's true?
But thinking along Zhang Chi's line of thought, her angry emotions became inconsistent.
"Also, while other Demon Race members are struggling to descend into the human world, you are already in the human world. Why do you want to go back? Is the Nine Netherworlds Prison more fun? Isn't it a place of exile?"
Gu Youyou: "..."
There is some truth to that too?
This was the first time Zhang Chi had brought up this topic with her. For a moment, Gu Youyou didn't know the meaning of her efforts during this time.
Zhang Chi awakened her from her dream.
The Nine Netherworlds Prison is the Demon Race's prison. The Demon Race cannot escape from it, but she has already escaped.
As a successful escapee from the Demon Race, why would she want to return to prison?
Gu Youyou's mind became a mess, and Zhang Chi continued to coax her, "Could it be that you actually have deep feelings for the Demon Race? Do you want to lead the Demon Race to rise?
No way? After you had bad luck, no one came to save you for ten years, and they were just waiting for you to disappear completely so they could inherit your position as the Saintess!"
Zhang Chi's words were full of sarcasm, making Gu Youyou feel extremely frustrated, but she couldn't refute him.
"I want to be alone."
After Gu Youyou finished speaking, she fell silent, not even providing navigation services.
Zhang Chi was speechless for a moment.
Fine, he went too far and completely shut her down.
Gu Youyou had never shut herself down to this extent before!
However, Zhang Chi felt that it was worth it.
He had already coaxed Gu Youyou to the edge of the Demon Race camp. With a little more effort, he could take away the Demon Race Saintess... (End of this chapter)
