Chapter 1561: Chapter 361_4
At first glance, he was completely stunned.
“What’s going on? Ruo Yun actually has two Mid Grade Yellow Level treasures! Her Immortal Mountain is so high, she was hiding her strength all along!
And that Linghu Gudu is even stronger than Ruo Yun! The two of them actually defeated the eight people from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect!”
After his surprise, Hao Sword was filled with deep regret. Why did he run away? Why did he flee so decisively? If only he had waited a little longer, he could have witnessed a reversal.
By then, if he ventured with Linghu Gudu and Ruo Yun in the Fourth Dangerous Terrain, it would undoubtedly be much safer.
But now, he could only escape!
He had just fled during the heat of the battle, and Linghu Gudu and the others were busy dealing with people from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect, having no time to care about him. Once they freed up time, they would certainly come after him.
Escape!
Run as far as possible, never to be encountered by them again!
Without turning his head, Hao Sword fled into the distance, while the three from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect hadn’t yet escaped, and they caught up.
“You three won’t escape.”
Cao Zhen blocked the three people in front of him, retracted the sharp sword in his hand, and took out the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead from the Qiankun Bag. Looking at them, he said: “Didn’t you want us to help you open the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead? Now, I also offer you an opportunity, whoever of you helps me open it, I will spare that person.”
Cao Zhen then looked to the side at Linghu Gudu and Immortal Ruo Yun and said: “The Unknown Immortal Demon Bead belongs to me, and you have no objections, right?”
Linghu Gudu heard this, immediately nodded and said, “The Unknown Immortal Demon Bead was snatched by you, so it has nothing to do with me.”
He had just cursed Linghu Gudu, and now there was a chance to take a stand, so he hurriedly expressed his agreement. Was he really going to wait for the opponent to take action and teach him a lesson?
The three from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect, seeing the approaching man, none of them stepped forward.
Cao Zhen immediately frowned, unhappily saying, “What? Do you think I am like you, untrustworthy?”
The three didn’t answer, but their expressions clearly showed they thought so. To be honest, after they agreed before, they didn’t plan to leave anyone alive.
And the opponent probably thought the same.
After all, once the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead was opened, if any treasure appeared, the opponent certainly wouldn’t want it to be leaked. Who is best at keeping secrets? Naturally, it’s dead people.
Seeing the three still unmoved, Cao Zhen stepped forward and his voice turned icy, “I stand by my word, believe it or not. Besides, do you think you have any other choice? Refusal means certain death, while not refusing…”
Before he finished his sentence, a sturdy demonic cultivator among the three suddenly rushed out, loudly shouting, “I’ll do it! I’ll open the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead for you.”
Not opening the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead would mean certain death, while opening it was the only chance to survive.
If there’s a chance, he would naturally try.
Even if the chance to survive was extremely slim, it was still a chance.
“Drawing Blood!”
“You, you…”
The other two were furious when they saw their companion running over. It’s not clear if they were angry because he betrayed them, or because he snatched their only chance of survival.
Cao Zhen nodded slightly, but his gaze moved to the other two, golden thunder appearing in his hand.
Moments later, there were already two more corpses on the ground.
After exterminating the other two, Cao Zhen then handed the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead to Drawing Blood Demon.
Drawing Blood Demon looked at the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead, which used to belong to them, with a complex expression. Who would have thought retribution would come so quickly? Clearly, it was left here by them to find someone to help them open it. But now, the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead fell into the hands of others, and he had to open it for someone else.
And this was his only chance to survive.
Cradling the seemingly weightless Unknown Immortal Demon Bead, he kept praying internally, hoping it wouldn’t contain any offensive spell or power.
Also hoping it wouldn’t be a top-tier treasure, like a Mysterious Rank or Earth Level treasure.
If it truly was such a treasure, the opponent would definitely kill him to silence him.
Hopefully, it’d be a Yellow Grade treasure, not enough for the opponent to kill him for, yet valuable enough not to make them too disappointed or angry at him.
There were accounts of such things in the sect’s rumors.
For example, there was once a master from the True Immortal Realm who caught someone from the Immortality Regainment Realm to open an unknown bead for him, but it merely turned out to be a Common Low Grade treasure.
That True Immortal Realm master thought the person from the Immortality Regainment Realm was incompetent or unlucky, and in anger, killed them on the spot.
Such accounts weren’t just once or twice, so he hoped there would appear an average treasure, maximizing his survival chance.
After handing the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead to the other side, Cao Zhen retreated a distance, in case it might explode, and if it did and killed him on the spot, what then?
As for Drawing Blood Demon running away with the Unknown Immortal Demon Bead?
