No hope for eternal life

Chapter 495 Number One Target

At the agreed time, Mu Changsheng arrived at the location, and Ying Qing was already waiting for him there.

"Brother Yuan, come quickly." Ying Qing waved enthusiastically, no longer trying to hide his feelings.

Mu Changsheng did the same and strode towards Ying Qing.

Just as Mu Changsheng was about to step out of the Ape Demon Territory, Yuan Lie, who had been following him secretly, finally couldn't hold back anymore and stood up, shouting at Mu Changsheng: "How dare you betray the Ape Demon Territory!"

As he spoke, Yuan Lie had already made his move. Countless water arrows spread out around him and attacked Mu Changsheng. His true form was a water ape, and he was good at water.

Feeling the water arrows coming from behind, Mu Changsheng deliberately showed panic on his face, but in fact he had long noticed that there were two Divine Sea Realm monks hiding beside Ying Qing. Those two Divine Sea Realm monks were obviously here to pick him up, so he felt no wavering at all.

As expected, the two hidden Nine Demon Realm cultivators instantly appeared and helped Mu Changsheng block Yuan Lie's attack.

What’s interesting is that among the two Nine Demon Realm Divine Sea cultivators who took action, one was a cultivator from the Nine Infants Clan who had been defeated by Yuan Lie before.

"Ying Hai, Ying Ling, it's you!" Yuan Lie's heart sank when he saw the two monks from the Nine Demon Realm appear. Ying Hai was his defeated opponent, so he was naturally not afraid of him. But with the addition of a Ying Ling who was also in the Divine Sea Realm, he would find it difficult to deal with him.

Ying Hai was also surprised to see Yuan Lie, but he said with great fighting spirit: "Yuan Lie, you showed up just in time. I lost to you before, so let's fight again today. As for this Yuan Tong, he is the one that my king has taken a fancy to, so you and your Ape Demon King can forget about it."

"You from the Nine Demon Realm are too arrogant. Do you really think that you can bully us from the Ape Demon Realm at will?" Yuan Lie said coldly. The water vapor condensed around him. He could no longer bear it and was ready to take action. Whether he could win or not was another matter, but if he didn't fight, it would be hard to let go of the anger in his heart.

Before Ying Hai could speak, Ying Ling had already taken the lead and said sarcastically: "So what if I bully your Ape Demon Realm? The strong prey on the weak, which is the law of survival in our demon world. If it weren't for the Demon Emperor who personally banned the war between demon realms, your entire Ape Demon Realm would have surrendered to our Nine Demon Realms."

"Let me see how capable you are to say such things." Yuan Lie roared angrily and attacked at the same time.

Ying Hai immediately came forward and said to Ying Ling: "Don't intervene yet, protect the young master."

"Young Master?" Mu Changsheng glanced at Ying Qing inconspicuously when he heard that. It turned out that Ying Qing also had the identity of the Young Master of the Nine Infants. No wonder he knew the so-called secret.

Under the protection of the infant spirit, Mu Changsheng successfully entered the Nine Demon Realm and reunited with Ying Qing.

Mu Changsheng pretended to watch the battle while casually chatting with Ying Qing, saying, "I heard them calling you Young Master. Are you the descendant of the Nine Infants King?"

"No." Ying Qing shook his head slightly and said, "When we, the Nine Infants Clan, evaluate young masters, we only look at their talents, not their backgrounds."

Mu Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and he instantly realized that Ying Qing was the most talented among the younger generation of the Jiuying clan, and this talent must be related to the innate ability to use water and fire.

This made Mu Changsheng extremely certain that if he could capture Ying Qing for research, it would definitely be more cost-effective than capturing other Nine Infants Clan cultivators, especially since Ying Qing knew the secret. It was still a question whether other Nine Infants Clan cultivators knew the secret.

Therefore, Mu Changsheng has silently listed Ying Qing as the number one target for capture. As for when to take action, he still needs to find the right opportunity.

On the other hand, Yuan Lie had reported Mu Changsheng's defection to the Ape Demon King through his clone.

The Ape Demon King frowned slightly and thought for a while, then said to Yuan Lie's clone: ​​"I have long seen that Yuan Tong is a restless kid. Since he has gone to the Nine Demon Realm, let that old Nine Infants ghost have a headache. He is only at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing stage, and he can't cause any big waves. You should also stop fighting with those guys from the Nine Infants Clan, lest you get really angry and hurt the harmony."

"It's too unfair to let them blatantly snatch away the cultivators from our Ape Demon Realm!" Yuan Lie said somewhat unwillingly.

The Ape Demon King rebuked: "What do you know? This is a special period. The entire demon world must give in to the Nine Demon Realm. Maybe we will really have to rely on the Nine Demon Realm in the future."

Yuan Lie was not stupid either. He keenly heard something unusual in the words of the Ape Demon King and asked, "Did you hear any rumors?"

The Ape Demon King waved his hand and said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't know. When the time comes, you will know it naturally. As for now, listen to me and stop fighting."

"Yes." Yuan Lie obeyed obediently. He had already understood a lot of problems from the attitude of the Ape Demon King.

At the same time, Yuan Lie, who was fighting with Ying Hai, suddenly stopped, turned around and left without saying a word.

"Hey, you're as cowardly as a mouse." Ying Hai said sarcastically from behind.

When Mu Changsheng saw this scene, he felt very strange in his heart. Ying Hai's arrogance and Yuan Lie's retreat appeared before his eyes. The contrast was too strong. He used to think that this was all because of the extraordinary talents and strong strength of the Jiuying clan. It was not until Ying Qing mentioned the so-called secret that he realized that there might be other reasons behind it, which made him more curious about the secret mentioned by Ying Qing.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng, under the leadership of Ying Qing, Ying Hai and other three demons, settled in the core area of ​​the Nine Demon Realm.

As for the core of the Nine Demon Realm, it is naturally the ancestral land of the Nine Infants Clan. The other party arranged Mu Changsheng to live here, which can be regarded as a sign of their respect for Mu Changsheng.

In Ying Hai's words, "You are able to defeat our young master at the same level, so you must have a bright future. It is a waste of your talent for you to follow the Ape Demon King."

“I just learned some tricks and won by chance. Once I break through to the Divine Sea Realm, many of these tricks will no longer be useful.” Mu Changsheng said modestly.

After hearing Mu Changsheng mention the Divine Sea Realm, Ying Qing asked with concern: "When do you plan to transcend the tribulation? Do you have enough top-grade spirit stones?"

"I have almost saved up all the top-grade spirit stones, and I plan to cross the tribulation in the near future." Mu Changsheng replied. He originally hid his cultivation at the peak of crossing the tribulation in order to facilitate a breakthrough to the Divine Sea realm as soon as possible. Because only when his cultivation reached the Divine Sea realm could he be further valued and it would be more convenient for him to act.

"With your strength, you will have no problem overcoming the tribulation. I will also go into seclusion to make a breakthrough in the near future, and then we can have another fight." Ying Qing agreed.

Mu Changsheng naturally had no reason to refuse, so he agreed immediately.

After Ying Qing and the other three monsters left, Mu Changsheng walked out of the cave and first went to the place where the Nine Infants Clan collected their secret techniques. He wanted to see if he could get a glimpse of their talents from the Nine Infants Clan's secret techniques.
