Chapter 714: The Demon Master's Speculation
The more the demon master thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He felt a slight sensation in his heart, but there was no response. He suddenly felt that the situation was not good. He could not even contact his clone!
Damn it! Did something unexpected happen?
The demon master was a little anxious, but his reason calmed him down. His clone was as intelligent as his main body, and he had been given many treasures. If he saw the situation was not good, he would run away, but he would never disappear without a single news like he did now.
The surrounding space quietly cracked, and a thin figure wrapped in thick demonic fog walked in. Seeing that he was still sitting quietly, he was immediately a little dissatisfied.
"The dozen or so elite tribesmen I sent out still haven't responded. The army has already withdrawn. Did something unexpected happen?"
The demon master did not reply, but his octopus-like face was extremely gloomy.
Seeing this, the Great Demon Lord also knew that something was wrong, and his heart was lifted. He asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes had known our actions for a long time, so he set up a trap in advance?"
The demon master then raised his head, showing some worry: "If only the mastermind is involved, then we are lucky, but what I am most worried about is that we are exposed!"
The Great Demon Lord took a deep breath, and a dark look appeared on his face: "How is this possible!"
"I can't sense any breath of my clone. It doesn't seem like it has hidden itself, but more like it has been erased by some existence. Not even a trace can be found, as if it had never existed!" The demon master was in an extremely depressed mood. Ever since he decided to use the demon race, he has been obstructed one after another, and his plans have been repeatedly aborted, making him believe that there is an undercover agent hiding beside him who knows his whereabouts at any time.
But when he looked up at the Great Demon Lord, he saw that the demon fog surrounding him was shaking and he was obviously frightened. He didn't look like the person who leaked the secret. That's why the Demon Master couldn't figure out what went wrong.
"Eradicated? Who in this world can erase all traces of a person's existence? Even if the person behind the scenes is extremely powerful, how could it be possible..."
At this point, the Great Demon Lord paused, a trace of doubt flashed across his face. If this was true, not to mention the South China Sea demon clan, even if all the demon clans in the entire Lingran world were united, there would be no chance of winning.
After looking at the thick demon fog inside the water-proof cover and finding no flaws, the Great Demon Lord breathed a sigh of relief: "If it is really that existence, then what is the meaning of everything we do? Could it be that existence is the mastermind behind all this? Otherwise, how could every one of our actions be expected by the other party?"
Jie Dao Beast had a strange feeling, as if things were not as simple as they thought: "That being shouldn't interfere in the affairs of the human and demon races. He should just watch as a bystander. If he is the mastermind behind the scenes, he should just take action directly. Why would he have to fight like this?"
The Great Demon Lord suddenly thought of something and said, "The intelligence said that Chun Qingtong's brother Chun Niuma once owed that being a favor. Could it be that Chun Qingtong was in a critical situation and that's why he asked him to help?"
"It's possible, but this is not good news for us. Combined with the strange phenomena and vibrations in the rear of the human race in the battle report, it is very likely that the truth about the yellow dragon's body has been discovered. This can also explain why my clone was completely wiped out."
The Great Demon Lord's originally gloomy expression finally wavered, and he was even horrified: "Exposed!"
This piece of news was like a bolt from the blue to him. Joining forces with the evil creatures in the sea of stars was something that all the laws of nature could not tolerate. If he was found out, only death would await him!
The situation is so serious.
The demon master extended his tentacles to signal him not to panic: "We don't know the specific situation, but it has been half an hour since the strange phenomenon. If the news was leaked, the Heavenly Dao would have descended here long ago. But have you noticed anything unusual?"
The Great Demon Lord finally calmed down and took a deep breath. His mood had been up and down all the way, and he didn't look as deep and wise as usual.
But this matter concerns the high and mighty Heaven. Even though he now has the strength to overlook all the monsters in the South China Sea, he is still as powerless as a child in the face of the might of Heaven. This is the difference! And he was already well controlled by not peeing directly.
"Looking at the current situation, my clone is quite courageous and did not betray us. This is good news for us. Now it's up to you. Have you left any marks in the bodies of your tribesmen and branches? If so, eliminate them as soon as possible~"
The Great Demon Lord originally wanted to explain a few words. Those demons were the backbones selected by him personally. Although they had different appearances, their potential was indeed unquestionable. He was already regarded as the younger generations worthy of training.
But nowadays...
The Great Demon Lord naturally set a seal on their minds. If they forcibly searched their souls, they would only get a corpse. But on second thought, he could find him even with the blood of the corpse alone. In addition, he instantly realized one thing, and his face suddenly looked unhappy.
The Demon Master's action seemed to have saved the Great Demon Lord, but in the final analysis it was for his own benefit. If he did this, the clues to the Demon Master's whereabouts would be completely destroyed from the source.
The demon master's reminder seemed to be well-intentioned, but in fact it was a manifestation of distrust of him. Such urging aroused some disgust in the heart of the Great Demon Lord.
The Great Demon Lord knew that they had completely lost the possibility of winning this game. All they had to do now was to prevent Heaven from discovering that it was they who planned all this.
As for the Demon Master, how could such a being be willing to maintain this mess? It is possible that he already had other plans, and it is even possible that he would abandon the South China Sea Demon Clan.
The Great Demon Lord was alert and took a step back: "I can still sense those dozen people, but what if they are not the Heavenly Dao!"
The demon master smiled and said, "Could it be that the demon lord can't bear to see your people die? You know, whether they fall into the hands of that person or the mastermind, the end will not be good, and there will be a risk of being exposed. We can't try and make mistakes, and we can't afford to try. It's better to free them as soon as possible while we can sense it, so that they don't suffer at the hands of the human race. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone~"
The more aggressive the road-intercepting beast is.
The Great Demon Lord could only clench his fists secretly and said in a cold voice: "I know what to do, you don't need to remind me!" A white human hand stretched out from the demon fog. Within a layer of faint light in the hand, more than a dozen demon seals were reflected. If you look closely, you can see the other party's current situation. He was tied up tightly.
Seeing this, the last bit of hope in the Great Demon Lord's heart was completely shattered. He pinched his fingers, and more than a dozen demon seals shattered into pieces. Faint screams could be heard from within the demon seals.
"Are you satisfied with this Demon Master?"
"You know the big picture and act decisively. I admire you. I admire you~" the demon master praised hypocritically.
After finalizing all this, a rift had already developed between the Great Demon Lord and the Demon Master. Although they remained polite on the surface, they had already cursed each other in their hearts.
"Great Demon Lord, it's better for us not to meet each other in the near future~"
"Natural~"
