"It’s okay, let them discover it if they do, he’s already dead anyway." Lu Zheng said nonchalantly.
"But in this world now, it’s not just this Old Fiend who’s here in the Lower Realm, there are other Upper Realm Celestial Demons too." Si Lingxi said solemnly.
Everyone was startled, and even Lu Zheng jumped in surprise, "What’s the situation?"
Si Lingxi then repeated what the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor had just said.
"He actually found out that Sister Lingxi can travel between two worlds, with traces of Otherworldly aura?" Liu Qingyan said in shock.
Si Lingxi nodded, "I just checked carefully, and indeed there was a peculiar trace outside my Divine Soul, like a fleeting mark, but it had no impact, and it was so subtle that I didn’t even notice it before."
Lu Zheng blinked, "What about , is there anything unusual around my Divine Soul?"
Si Lingxi shook her head, "Qingyan, Shen Ying, and I all have sothing, but you don’t... maybe because of your own unique nature."
"Also..." Si Lingxi looked deeply at Lu Zheng, then glanced at Liu Qingyan before looking at Liu Qingquan, "The matter of traveling between two worlds must not be known by more people."
Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying nodded seriously, then looked at Lu Zheng with an undeniable shock in their eyes.
The more important thing is...
Chaos Divine Techniques?
Void Treasure?
Realm Divine Artifact?
Just hearing about these things makes them seem incredibly powerful, and they are Lu Zheng’s fortunes?
"Yes..."
Si Lingxi quickly covered Lu Zheng’s mouth and shook her head, "Don’t tell us. Your secrets should remain with you. There are countless divine techniques and secret thods in the world; having one more person know about them is unsafe. We only need to know about your ability to travel between two worlds, nothing more."
Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying nodded together, "Indeed."
"Besides..."
Si Lingxi blinked playfully, pointed at Lu Zheng, and said, "Phoenix Power!"
When dual-cultivating with Lu Zheng, Si Lingxi received Phoenix Power far beyond his capacity, which enhanced both their powers together without additionally absorbing or consuming Spiritual Qi.
According to the law of energy conservation, this is impossible, but it happened nonetheless.
Si Lingxi was sure there was no anomaly with her, which ant there must be a terrifying energy source within Lu Zheng providing the dual cultivation boost.
Si Lingxi had long suspected that Lu Zheng had a profound secret buried within him.
"Hehe!"
Lu Zheng could only laugh dryly, realizing that Si Lingxi had noticed sothing unusual long ago.
Si Lingxi smiled slightly, linking arms with Lu Zheng, and waved her hand, "I’ve already eliminated the anomalies in the Divine Souls of Qingyan and Ying, so be cautious and handle it promptly in the future. Even if another Upper Realm Celestial Demon tries to sense our Divine Souls, they won’t detect our anomalies, unless..."
"Unless the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor informs other Lower Realm Celestial Demons, or he cos down himself to look for us." Lu Zheng answered.
"Isn’t it costly for Gods and Demons to descend into the Lower Realm?" Liu Qingyan asked.
"But Lu Lang’s fortunes are alluring, who knows if that Old Fiend would spend more to descend again." Si Lingxi said.
"Wow, I’ve beco a hot commodity?" Lu Zheng rubbed his chin with a smile.
"A hot commodity attracts people; you attract Upper Realm Celestial Demons!" Shen Ying reminded, "We are all worried to death, and you still find ti to laugh?"
Lu Zheng waved it off, "What’s there to fear? This Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor has been in the Lower Realm for so long and still ended up being killed by Lingxi. Even if he cos again, by the ti he can threaten Lingxi, we might have all ascended together!"
Lu Zheng spoke with great bravado, having developed his Dao Practice to the level equivalent to thousands of years within just under ten years, thanks to the Mind Jade Seal.
The way the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor spoke, he clearly didn’t want this great fortune to be taken by other demons.
Since that’s the case, what’s there to be afraid of?
Lu Zheng is just lacking ti. If that Old Fiend gives him a hundred years, he can take his family with him for ascension and seek protection from Supre Lord Laojun.
Lu Zheng: (◔◡◔)
"There’s indeed no need to be afraid." Si Lingxi nodded, flipping her hand to reveal a fragnt of a bone in her hand.
"This is..."
"This is a piece of that Old Demon’s Demon Body from this life." Si Lingxi said lightly, "It still carries that Old Fiend’s aura."
Lu Zheng was stunned, "So..."
"So, in a few years, we’ll take the Cloud Palace Treasure Mirror and look around. If he really descends in True Spirit, we’ll kill him once more." Si Lingxi said lightly.
Liu Qingyan, "..."
Shen Ying, "..."
Lu Zheng doesn’t care about the Great Black Heaven Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor, and Si Lingxi even prepared to kill him again as a backup plan.
Wow!
This guy is an Upper Realm Celestial Demon Ancestor, after all; can’t they be a bit more serious and give him the respect he deserves?
However, the composure of Lu Zheng and Si Lingxi also influenced Liu Qingyan and Shen Ying.
Shen Ying asked, "Would that Old Fiend send his subordinates down? Surely, he can’t be a loner?"
Si Lingxi shook her head, "Just like this realm has , Elder Wansong, and Dongyangzi, and countless ordinary Abnormal People and the Demon Race, the Upper Realm also has these, aside from the powerful Immortals and demons. There are, of course, those with weaker Dao Practices.
However, True Spirit descent or Dream Transmission Technique aren’t things ordinary people can do, just like in the mythology of the Blue Star, where nurous Celestial Soldiers and Generals serve as the backdrop, while the truly renowned are few."
Lu Zheng nodded, "Even The Three Pristine Ones have descended in True Spirit to take disciples and spread their teachings. Much less others."
Liu Qingyan then asked, "Does he have any friends who have descended? Was what he said just now to lower Sister Lingxi’s guard?"
At this, everyone laughed, and Liu Qingyan couldn’t help but shake her head with a smile.
The Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor’s actions were clearly to prevent other Celestial Demons from discovering Si Lingxi’s anomaly and seizing the fortune first, so strictly speaking, he was giving Si Lingxi a reminder.
"But, having other Celestial Demons descend, that’s certainly big news. I thought it was only the Heartless True Desire Demon Ancestor alone." Lu Zheng said.
Si Lingxi nodded, "When I discovered the Fiery Heaven-Destroying Demon Dragon King, I already sensed sothing was off; the Demon Tribulation is impending."
Lu Zheng had heard from Daoist Yuting about the Demon Tribulation before, but not in detail, "Does the Demon Tribulation happen often?"
Si Lingxi nodded then shook her head, "Every few hundred years, there are demons who make trouble, usually involving Celestial Demons in dreams, rarely True Spirit descending.
And the previous demons had inferior hiding and escaping skills compared to this Old Demon. Still, the Old Demon’s actual strength was average. Who knows what his standing is in the Upper Realm."
"Turns out there isn’t just him this ti." Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, "I wonder if the Immortals in the Upper Realm will react?"
