Above all spirits

Chapter 430 Near Loss of Control

"Is it far away, yet so close at hand?"

Gu Yun carefully studied the instructions Lilia gave him after the final diagram.

"Hey kid, that woman wouldn't have tricked you, would she? You spent twenty mid-grade soul crystals and got such a vague result? Even if you have hundreds of mid-grade soul crystals, you shouldn't waste them like this. At this rate, you'll squander your entire fortune sooner or later. Honestly, are you being biased and only feeling sorry for her?"

Why is it said that it takes twenty mid-grade soul crystals?

That's because after learning the reason, Gu Yun didn't think Lilia would lie about it. After all, he was wearing the skin of the Star Moon Demon, and besides, he was still waiting for Lilia's explanation.

It's better to avoid trouble.

So they gave out ten more.

This made Lilia extremely grateful.

"I just counted them, and I still have 648 left. That's enough for one more purchase. Luckily, I'm on the other side of the river, so I won't spend it all."

"Have you forgotten that you also have a soul to cultivate? You're not an ordinary demon; you need far more soul crystals than other demons. And now, entering the Other Shore means you have to choose one of two options—no, three: either use the Book of Reversal to obtain what you want to know, or improve your soul's rank, or you make money. So, it might take you a while to make that much money."

'Hmm? That makes sense. It's rare to find someone whose line of thinking is so insightful; that's certainly true.'

"So, you've got your eye on that girl, haven't you? Don't worry, I won't tell Yunyin Nizi. Men, you know..."

'I just find it too much trouble.'

'Really not?'

'No. '

...

along the way.

Gu Yun shed his disguise as a member of the Star Moon Demon Clan. In the territory of another royal family, the Star Moon Demon Clan might not be a good choice, as it would make Gu Yun a target of suspicion and attention.

Therefore, Gu Yun regained her original appearance.

She walked in a tight-fitting black robe inlaid with gilded gold, her long black hair tied up.

He walked at a moderate pace, and although he chatted with Werner from time to time, Gu Yun never relaxed his attention. He closely observed the movements around him, hoping to catch any possible special events or clues.

Unfortunately, Gu Yun has not made any special discoveries so far.

This planet is a neighboring planet to the Imperial Palace, called Huan Gong San Xing.

They should be the same type of name, as well as Huan Gong Yi Xing and Si Xing.

On this planet, Gu Yun would encounter patrolling guards on routine duty every short distance he walked, and the order was very well maintained.

It seems completely unrelated to the nascent power of the rules of death.

Therefore, Gu Yun gained nothing.

unconsciously.

Gu Yun had been walking all night and arrived at Huan Gong Sanxing around dusk, but now it was already light again.

Could I have really been scammed?

Just as Gu Yun was pondering whether to go back and ask for clarification...

Some familiar figures flashed by to the side.

Gu Yun unconsciously turned her head to follow the figure.

In the vast sea of ​​people, Gu Yun spotted the figure that caught her attention.

It was the silhouette of a female demon, moving very fast, almost flashing by with every step.

If it weren't for the restrictions on flying here, she probably would have chosen to soar into the sky.

I hesitated for a moment.

Gu Yun then followed.

Because he remembered the other person's identity.

That was one of the attendants of the devil who had been staring at him for a while in the restaurant yesterday.

They entered a place that looked like a teleportation array, but no one was charging them.

Gu Yun followed him in and realized that this was an external passage to the void. The Extreme Emperor Demon Realm was strictly controlled, and one could only enter the void through a designated area.

Gu Yun secretly used his powers: Stealth, becoming invisible in the void. Following in the void is not like the bustling streets of the Huan Gong Three Star Street. Without some means of concealment, it is impossible to avoid being detected.

After flying for a while, Lin Tong suddenly stopped, looked around, and only after confirming that no one was around did she continue her stealth journey and land on a desolate planet.

After a while.

Gu Yun also took refuge in a shadowy spot.

Just as Gu Yun was guessing the purpose, the scene in front of him almost made him lose control. Endless anger surged from his chest, almost causing him to reveal his identity.

"Gu boy, calm down. This kind of thing is commonplace in the demon realm."

'You know I'm not one to meddle, but she did this entirely because of me.'

Beside Lin Tong, a man was spinning his toes and forcefully pressing down on the head of a gray-haired woman kneeling on the ground.

Her head was already deeply embedded in the ground, but the man ignored it and continued to press down.

A series of pitiful groans rose up.

Gu Yun recognized her at a glance; she was the woman he had given a mid-grade soul crystal to.

The once simple and neat clothes were torn apart, revealing not the snow-white skin that Gu Yun knew, but a broken and bloodstained desolation.

Her face is no longer as delicate as before; it has been ravaged beyond recognition.

His limbs were already twisted and deformed, all ten fingers were gone, and his body was covered with bloody cuts.

Despite their innate physical bodies and powerful regenerative abilities.

But all of these require the support of soul essence.

Clearly, she couldn't, or... dared not.

Werner's words came true.

This made Gu Yun uncomfortable.

Very uncomfortable.

"Feng Qiao, how's it going? Have you managed to get her to talk?"

Lin Tong asked mechanically.

Feng Qiao shook his head regretfully.

"It's a pity that even after all his teeth have been extracted, he still doesn't say a word. It feels like he really doesn't know anything."

After saying that, he impatiently kicked her, sending her flying.

"boom!"

There was a loud bang.

The powerful impact slammed her straight into a stone wall not far away before bringing her to a stop, her body a bloody mess.

Lin Tong didn't seem surprised by this result and continued.

"Young Master has told you it's about time to go back. The quota has been allocated, and we'll be following Young Master to participate in the selection of the Heavenly Guard."

Feng Qiao pointed to the gray-haired woman not far away.

"What about her?"

Lin Tong replied coldly.

“Kill them. This is an unsupervised area. The Extreme Emperor Demon Clan only prohibits fighting within their designated territories.”

This is precisely why Xue Lingjian had Feng Qiao bring him here to torture and extract a confession.

"Get this sorted out quickly."

After saying that, Lin Tong took the lead and jumped up, seemingly disgusted by this place and the bloody mass of flesh not far away.

Feng Qiao watched Lin Tong's disappearing figure, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"A lowly demon who doesn't even have a race, you dare to look down on me like this just because you have a pair of peculiar eyes. I'll see what kind of captivating face you'll have when you fall into my hands the day you're no longer useful."

As he spoke, a wicked smile curled at the corner of his mouth, and he licked his blood-stained fingers.

"Whether she will live to see that day or not, I think you probably won't."

With a cold, emotionless voice, Gu Yun slowly appeared after confirming that the woman had left.
