In the end, even Ye Manzhu's plan to sacrifice herself in a mutual destruction was abruptly thwarted by Lin Xiao.

"Little Flower! You have excellent taste! The Holy Son is indeed a rare genius, but his aesthetic sense is different from ours."

Niu Dali sighed, "So don't waste your time."

"I understand! I will strive to catch up with the Holy Son."

The beautiful young woman clenched her huge fist and said.

"Yes! Speaking of which, your father has good taste, having made such a good brother."

"Father, you wouldn't be making me give up pursuing the Holy Son because you're afraid of messing up the generational order, would you?"

"What kind of talk is this? Do you think I'm that kind of person? How could that be, it's impossible..."

"..."

Lin Xiao appeared beside Ji Yunyou.

At this moment, Ji Yunyou's aura merged with that of the Qingqiu Demon Tower, making her extremely mysterious and unpredictable.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, Ji Yunyou reached out and restrained Ye Manzhu.

"Ye Manzhu, who ordered you to do this?"

Ji Yunyou asked.

"Ji Yunyou, do you really want to know?"

The voice was somewhat hoarse, making it difficult to tell if it was male or female.

This is not Ye Manzhu's voice.

"You're not Ye Manzhu?"

Ji Yunyou's gaze sharpened slightly.

"As expected of the Second Fairy, she recognized me so quickly."

Ye Manzhu spoke again, "So, Second Fairy, don't waste your energy trying to find out anything from Ye Manzhu. She does know my identity."

"However, she can't tell you."

"Are you the mastermind behind this?" Ji Yunyou asked.

"Huh? You guys actually knew I existed? That's really boring. I was planning to give you a surprise when I announced my identity."

"That's what Ye Manzhu said."

He seemed somewhat surprised that his presence had been detected so quickly.

"Is it that hard? How well do you think you've hidden it?"

"Hahaha... In that case, Second Fairy, Holy Son Yaoguang, we'll meet again next time."

After Ye Manzhu finished laughing, with a bang, she turned into countless blood lines, scattered in all directions, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Ji Yunyou had no intention of keeping him.

Chapter 490 Leaving the Demon Realm

mountain top.

Lin Xiao and Ji Yunyou fell into a brief silence. Lin Xiao's feelings were even more complicated as he recalled the bits and pieces that had just happened.

Forget it, let nature take its course. There's no use thinking about it anymore; things have come to this.

The two then pondered the ins and outs of the whole incident.

Today's turmoil seems to be Ye Manzhu's attempt to seize power and take over.

But it's not that simple.

Ye Manzhu is more like a tool.

Someone attempted to secretly control the Qingqiu Demon Realm through Ye Manzhu.

And that person was the mastermind behind it all.

As for why they were so certain, Lin Xiao and Ji Yunyou had already made some guesses before the mastermind spoke through Ye Manzhu.

For example, why did Ye Manzhu become a blood demon?

And how were they able to persuade the Seven Sages of the Western Desert to come?

And the mad choice to sacrifice oneself, intending to perish together with the enemy, etc.

This is all wrong.

However, Ye Manzhu appears to have become an Abyss Blood Demon, possessing immense power.

In reality, she was just a pawn in the hands of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Ye Manzhu planted the Heart-Eating Bloodworm in Langyuan and Tongshi.

But what about her? Was she also infected with the heart-devouring blood worm?

"Lin Xiao, the other party has achieved some of their objectives."

After a long pause, Ji Yunyou suddenly spoke.

"Ok!"

Lin Xiao nodded.

He understood Ji Yunyou's meaning.

The mastermind behind it all initially planned to take control of the Qingqiu Demon Realm and kill him and Ji Yunyou at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.

But if it doesn't succeed, it doesn't count as a failure.

Because today's battle has ultimately resulted in heavy losses for the Qingqiu Demon Realm.

Five supreme experts died.

This resulted in a significant loss of the foundation and vitality of the Qingqiu Demon Realm.

Now, only Ji Yunyou and Niu Dali, two supreme experts, remain.

"I originally thought that I was the target of the other party, but now it seems that he also intends to target Master Er."

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, a sudden thought flashed through his mind, "No, his target should be the Yao Guang Holy Land, or rather, his master!"

Ji Yunyou looked surprised.

Lin Xiao was equally surprised after he deduced these things.

There's actually someone who dares to target Empress Liuli?

"Your guess is right, I am indeed his target."

At this moment, ripples spread across the void not far away, and then a stunningly beautiful, veiled figure appeared.

It was none other than Empress Liuli.

"Master Chef!"

"Miss!"

Lin Xiao and Ji Yunyou both spoke up.

Both of them were somewhat surprised that Empress Liuli had arrived so quickly.

"After killing the Seven Saints of the Western Desert, I realized something was wrong, so I quickened my pace and rushed over."

Empress Liuli offered an explanation.

He continued, "The person behind this has grand ambitions. Judging from the current situation, he should be a well-cultivated Abyss Blood Demon."

Lin Xiao and Ji Yunyou also realized this.

From Song Zhiyu to Ye Manzhu, they all became blood demons of the abyss, pawns of the person behind the scenes.

Shen Tuo may also be an abyssal blood demon.

This makes sense as to explain the connection between Shen Tuo and Song Zhiyu.

Of course, these are all just speculations at the moment.

The actual situation may differ from reality.

Empress Liuli glanced around, seemingly surveying the battlefield.

In those star-like eyes, a faint light seemed to flicker and shimmer.

A short while later, she looked at Lin Xiao and said, "You're growing up faster and faster."

His expression suggested that he had seen clearly everything that had happened on the battlefield.

This terrifying level of eyesight was unbelievable even to Lin Xiao.

He laughed and said, "There's still a long way to go before I catch up with the master chef."

Ji Yunyou chuckled and said, "Tsk! Such ambition, you actually want to catch up with your master."

"A disciple who doesn't want to surpass his master is not a good man."

Lin Xiao said in a serious tone.

Empress Liuli looked at Ji Yunyou and said, "Yunyou, during this time, you sealed off the Qingqiu Demon Realm, took control of the Qingqiu Demon Tower, and devoted yourself to cultivation."

"What about Lin Xiao?"

Ji Yunyou asked.

"I will train with Lin Xiao for a period of time."

Empress Liuli said.

"That's it!"

Ji Yunyou nodded, then looked at Lin Xiao, "This is a rare opportunity to spend time with Master, Lin Xiao, you must make the most of it!"

"..."

Empress Liuli's crystal-clear red lips, hidden beneath her veil, twitched slightly.
