Stop crying, I'll give it to you, okay?

At the sect conference, many elders from various sects and factions were present and arranged on a high platform so that they could see more clearly and quickly take action if anything seemed amiss.

The sect leader went to draw lots, while the eldest disciple, Wei Hanling, was competing in the Nascent Soul stage. Chi Buwan stood alone on the high platform, looking down at the surrounding situation.

The system told him that the Demon Lord was nearby.

Where is the Demon Lord?

337 struggled to sit cross-legged, its paws rapidly swiping the screen, searching frantically. [Wait! I'll find it soon!]

Chi Buwan fell silent, glanced at her, and then stopped.

He asked, "Is there a red lotus on the Demon Lord's forehead?"

337 nodded: [Yes, yes! In the setting, there is a red lotus, and he has an earring in his right ear, made from the ashes of the demigod he killed.]

Is it too late?:........

[Look at the crowd on the right, isn't that the tall man with a lotus flower on his forehead and an earring in his right ear? Is that Demon Lord Canglong Yuan?]

337 looked in the direction he indicated and immediately spotted the Demon Lord, who stood out conspicuously in the crowd.

It was silent for two seconds.

Not too late to ask: 【Are you serious?】

Other demon lords at least try to hide their identities, but he just stands there openly, as if afraid others won't know he's a demon lord.

337's answer: [He is indeed the Demon Lord.]

Chi Buwan remained silent, his gaze lingering on him for several seconds until the Demon Lord noticed and glanced at him slightly. Only then did he turn his gaze away.

He wore a veiled hat, which covered most of his face, making it impossible for others to see who he was looking at, except for Xiao Wuli, who was always looking up at him.

Xiao Wuli followed his gaze and immediately spotted someone in the crowd whose aura was different from the others.

[Oh my! This guy is still alive?] The old man was surprised to see an acquaintance.

Xiao Wuli asked: "Do you know him?"

"Of course, it's the Demon Lord Canglongyuan," the old man said. "That demon who ordered my hunt back then, he really caused me a lot of trouble!"

Xiao Wuli frowned, looked up at his master who was still staring at the demon, pursed his lips, and said, "So he's an old man too."

Old man:........

Old man: [You brat, can't you speak properly! I'm only a little over ten thousand years old! If we were to compare the age of a god to that of you mortals, I'd only be twenty-eight!]

Xiao Wuli: [I'm only 19.]

The old man was so angry his beard stood on end, and he stabbed him in the heart: "Yes, yes, you're young, but I doubt your master would ever like a brat like you!"

"Click——"

Xiao Wuli cracked his knuckles.

A few minutes later, the old man calmed down.

Brother, please put aside my family matters for now; I won't say anything more.

Xiao Wuli frowned and loosened his grip, releasing the ring he had almost crushed in his palm.

The old man quickly and discreetly held the ring in his hand, wiping it with heartache.

Xiao Wuli watched as the demon turned to look at his master, his brows furrowing even deeper.

Seeing that he was about to move, the old man quickly said, "Boy! Don't be so bold! Cang Longyuan is vicious and ruthless. If he sets his sights on you, even all the elders of the Lingxiao Sect combined can't protect you!"

[Don't worry about your master. No matter how powerful the Demon Lord is, he wouldn't dare cause trouble here alone. There's a formation suppressing him here, along with elders and sect leaders. He's being careful and won't make a move!]

Xiao Wuli stared intently at the demon, a dark glint in his phoenix eyes. Even when Cang Longyuan looked down at him, he did not look away.

The other person raised an eyebrow slightly, their gaze fixed on him without wavering.

The old man gave him a long and rambling lecture, afraid that Xiao Wuli would be so stubborn as to rush up and confront the demon. But even after he had talked himself hoarse, Xiao Wuli, as if afraid of losing, still stared at the demon lord without moving.

He was now incredibly grateful that Chi Buwan had put the veil on him; otherwise, the way he stared at the Demon Lord would have been enough for that petty Canglongyuan to kill him three thousand times over!

"Don't leave."

Just as the old man decided to fall back into slumber and wait for the next Heavenly Spiritual Root to awaken him, a clear and melodious voice rang out.

The next second, Xiao Wuli's emotions changed, and she looked up at the person on the stage with bright eyes.

Old man: ......

"Don't cause trouble."

Xiao Wuli respectfully cupped his hands in greeting: "Yes!"

Old man:............

.

I was relieved to have looked away sooner rather than later.

[Luckily, Xie Hanfeng gave the jade pendant that concealed his aura to Xiao Wuli. Tell me, what does the Demon Lord know? I need to be on guard.]

[The Demon Lord didn't know much after his awakening; he only knew that someone would be able to kill him in the future,] 337 said. [As for why he was able to find Xiao Wuli's parents, it was entirely because when Xiao Wuli killed him in the future, he was injured and bleeding. Demons are very sensitive to the smell of blood, and after awakening, he tracked down to Xiao Wuli's home based on that scent.]

[Xiao Wuli survived because the laws of heaven and earth protected him, concealing his aura for a moment, which gave the Demon Lord the illusion that he had been successfully killed.]

Finally, by sheer chance, he was brought back to the sect by Wei Hanling, the senior disciple of the Lingxiao Sect. For the past 12 years, he has never strayed far from the protection range of the sect's array, so the Demon Lord has never known that Xiao Wuli is still alive.

She nodded slightly, not too late.

That makes things easy.

Before Xiao Wuli can defeat the Demon Lord, it's best to let him keep his aura hidden.

337: [Oh right, host, the Demon Lord also knows Xiao Wuli's moves.]

Is it too late? ......

He looked down at Xiao Wuli, who was looking up, and asked, "What move?"

337: [The one who will annihilate the Demon Lord in the future—Nine Revolutions of Brahma.]

Silence is neither too late nor too late.

This is Xiao Wuli's ultimate move; if he can't use it, the championship will be completely out of his reach.

"Oh, I've been looking for you for a while now. So this is where you are." A seductive voice came from behind, and Chi Buwan turned his head to look over.

The newcomer had slightly upturned eyes, arched willow-leaf eyebrows, and her dark hair was loosely tied with a jade hairpin. She approached him with her delicate fingers raised, and a fragrant scent wafted over her.

Even if he dresses up in a glamorous and beautiful way, you can tell at a glance that he is a man.

337: [Liu Yuye, the third elder of the Hehuan Sect, is known as the second most beautiful woman in the Three Realms and is the original owner's mortal enemy.]

"Why did you decide to lead a team to the sect conference this year? Don't you usually dislike going out?" Liu Yuye's voice was warm and captivating, like a feather gently brushing against the ear.

Chi Buwan shivered. Although he couldn't understand what the cross-dressing man in front of him was saying, his voice was so sickeningly sweet that it made him tremble.

"You're out now, so why are you wearing this veil?" Liu Yuye moved closer to him, her slender, pale fingers reaching out to lift the moon-veil obscuring his face. "Have you been disfigured? Let me see..."

Chi Buwan raised her hand and grasped his wrist, but the next second she felt it was impolite, so she let go and instead used her fingertips to lightly block him.

Liu Yuye was stunned for a moment.

Chi Bu Wan: "The Nascent Soul stage lottery tickets have all been drawn. Elder Liu, why are you here instead of going over there?"

Liu Yuye snapped out of her daze, chuckled softly, and lowered her eyebrows slightly, saying, "Of course I've come to see how the disciples of the Hehuan Sect defeat your Xuejiang Peak disciples."

When he finally put his hand down, his sleeves, which had been rolled up, fell back down.

He paused for a moment, then lowered his head to roll up his sleeves again. His peach blossom eyes swept over Xiao Wuli, and sure enough, he saw that Xiao Wuli was still looking at him.

There are so many familiar faces here, what if he were to run naked here...?

He will add 30,000 jin of fertilizer to the world!

Because he will perish together with everyone here, including Xiao Wuli.
