Chapter 901: Chapter 91: Trouble Entrusting Life to _3
This place is called the Xuanyue Platform.
However, that was its forr na.
Recently, it has been renad.
“Wilderness Domain.”
Indeed, the Xuanyue Platform is where the Wilderness erged, also the reason for its desolation.
This is a death trap, a ghostly specter, no one is willing to approach, it has been abandoned.
Ying Jie stands at the edge of the Xuanyue Platform.
This is still outside the Wilderness Domain.
He frowned as he glanced at the Wilderness Domain not far from his side, instinctively feeling a bit eerie.
Although as long as one doesn’t enter the Wilderness Domain and provoke the Wilderness, there is no risk.
Yet the Wilderness is so terrifying, it gives people endless pressure.
Ying Jie stood in place for a while.
“You ca.” He suddenly smiled.
“I ca.” Lu Qingshan said.
Lu Qingshan appeared not far from him, slowly walking towards him.
“Why et here?” Ying Jie asked.
“The next line shouldn’t be sothing like you shouldn’t have co…” Lu Qingshan muttered softly.
“What?” Ying Jie didn’t hear clearly.
“Nothing,” Lu Qingshan smiled, shaking his head, with an extrely relaxed expression, he looked around, “You didn’t bring your n?”
“Neither did you?” Ying Jie sneered.
The two with secrets in their hearts tacitly did not bring their subordinates, but ca alone.
Lu Qingshan didn’t mind, returning to the previous question, he sighed and said, “I am now the most sought after, most watched person in the Royal City.
Going to other places, if noticed by so observant people, amidst crowded places, it’s not good if they discover sothing unwittingly.
Thinking back and forth, this is the only place in the Royal City where no one would appear, absolutely safe.
Ying Jie nodded solemnly, sarcastically, “Indeed, living with so many secrets, once exposed, there’s no good outco, everything you have now could go down the drain, it’s understandable you’re being so cautious.”
He could accept Lu Qingshan’s explanation because it made sense.
“Sigh.” Lu Qingshan sighed.
“Regarding the Sword Token matter, have you thought about how to explain it?” Seeing Lu Qingshan’s deanor, Ying Jie beca more confident, pressing aggressively.
“Can’t explain.” Lu Qingshan shook his head.
Ying Jie’s eyes tightened.
He’s actually conceding so easily?
Indeed, it’s hard to explain.
But Qing Ge doesn’t seem like soone who would concede easily.
Lu Qingshan paused, then asked, “Lord Ying Jie, you haven’t told anyone else about this matter yet, have you?”
“Currently, it’s just who knows this matter.” Ying Jie didn’t bother to hide.
“Then, I have to trouble you to help keep this matter a secret.”
“Help you keep it a secret? It’s not impossible.”
He was surprised by Lu Qingshan’s directness, but quickly continued, “But, it depends on whether your offer is worth keeping the secret for you.”
“With Lord Ying Jie’s status and position, what could Qing Ge have that interests you?” Lu Qingshan frowned, showing a difficult expression.
After a mont, he clapped his hands, and an Obsidian Longsword appeared in his hand.
Lu Qingshan said, “Demonic Sword, you must be interested in the Demonic Sword, right?”
Ying Jie squinted.
“However, the Demonic Sword has a spirit, even if I want to give the Demonic Sword to you as a condition for you to help keep the secret, the Demonic Sword might not agree.” Lu Qingshan added.
“How did you gain the Demonic Sword’s approval? Tell !” Ying Jie’s voice suddenly beca urgent.
He is a calm person, but the significance of the Demonic Sword is too great.
Seeing it almost within reach, Ying Jie couldn’t suppress his inner excitent.
“You must have used so special ans to control the Demonic Sword.” Ying Jie had an almost obsessive persistence about this.
“You guessed it,” Lu Qingshan praised again, “You are indeed smart.”
If the Innate Swordseed counts as a ans, Ying Jie’s statent isn’t wrong.
“Do you want to know?” Lu Qingshan asked.
Ying Jie didn’t respond.
“I can tell you everything, as long as you agree to so conditions.” Lu Qingshan said as he took a step into the Wilderness Domain, under Ying Jie’s astonished gaze.
“However, the next words, we have to speak in here.”
“Why inside?” Ying Jie felt sothing amiss and, combined with his instinctive fear of the Wilderness Domain, stopped and asked.
Lu Qingshan sighed, lanting, “One must not fall into the sa trap twice.
You are the Demon Lord, I am rely Sixth Grade, our strength is not at all comparable.
The words I am about to say are also an absolute secret.
If you secretly record our conversation like in the Sen Luo Tower, I might not even be aware of it.
Then, you agree to my conditions on the surface, but later use it to blackmail , like before, wouldn’t I once again suffer a double loss?”
“To prevent this situation, it’s certainly not relying on your promise, I don’t trust you,” Lu Qingshan smiled, “So, thinking about it, this thod seems most appropriate.”
Ying Jie blinked.
Indeed.
In the Wilderness Domain, all energy is forbidden.
Once energy appears, the Wilderness will notice, then unleash its power against the energy releaser.
Given the Wilderness’s might, even the Shi Wu Demon Venerable was instantly gravely injured, near death.
Therefore, in the Wilderness Domain, he dares not use any ans.
“This kid is indeed clever.” Ying Jie thought secretly.
Lu Qingshan was right.
Today, he indeed brought a recording stone, intending to record his conversation with Qing Ge, to use it as leverage in the future.
He hesitated a bit.
“Well, the Demonic Sword is of utmost importance, controlling Qing Ge is secondary, it doesn’t matter much.”
Ying Jie glanced again at the Demonic Sword in Lu Qingshan’s hand, glistening with a faint purple light.
His inner greed urged him to make the final decision.
However, being naturally cautious, before entering the Wilderness Domain, he carefully scanned the current Wilderness Domain.
He feared any plots.
The Wilderness Domain is still in its infancy, about the size of two squares, so one glance sees every corner clearly.
Including the center of the Wilderness Domain, where the writhing mass of flesh is closing in, with a void-like hole, all clearly in his sight.
Aside from Qing Ge, there was no one else in the Wilderness Domain.
In the energy-forbidden Wilderness Domain, there were no ans to camouflage or hide from sight.
The ground was littered with various weapons.
These were probably left by the Demonic Cultivators who entered the Wilderness Domain intending to destroy the Wilderness.
After confirming there was no ambush, Ying Jie gritted his teeth.
He is the Demon Lord, Qing Ge is a Low-Ranking Demon General, without an ambush, he has no reason to fear.
Furthermore, with the Demonic Sword at hand, his mind was sowhat chaotic.
Finally, he stopped the recording stone and withdrew all his demonic qi, following Lu Qingshan into the Wilderness Domain.
He approached Lu Qingshan closely and stood firm.
“Can you talk now?” He urged.
Although he knew that in the Wilderness Domain, as long as he doesn’t use energy, the Wilderness will ignore him, absolutely safe.
But thinking of a terrifying presence capable of devouring him at any mont nearby, Ying Jie still felt eerie.
Greed is the original sin.
Lu Qingshan narrowed his eyes.
From start to finish, he was certain Ying Jie would enter.
Everything was under control.
All the setup was complete.
Ti to get to the main point.
“Can you really guarantee not to disclose my secret to anyone?” He asked as if uncertain.
“As long as you satisfy today, I swear, I will keep it secret.” Ying Jie vowed.
Oaths?
What are they even worth, can they be eaten?
Ying Jie had long planned to swallow Qing Ge whole, skin and bones, to quell his inner resentnt.
Only for the sake of obtaining the Demonic Sword did he hold back, making nice with Qing Ge.
“No,” Lu Qingshan thought for a mont, then said, “I still don’t trust you.”
“Then what do you want?” Ying Jie was impatient, threatening, “You must understand, I can still negotiate with you.
But if I report this to the Demon Lords, do you think they’d treat you kindly?”
“True too.” Lu Qingshan agreed.
Then, he said, “But, thinking about it, only one kind of person can keep secrets best.
So… I must trouble you to agree to one condition before I can reveal everything to you.”
“What condition?” Ying Jie instinctively asked, not yet realizing.
Lu Qingshan calmly said:
“Please hand over your life to .”
——Only dead n can keep secrets forever.
