LEGEND OF THE DEMON KING.
467. GRADE 8 MATERIAL
“I catch you now, basic !”
A cold voice crept from behind the four of them. Their bodies froze and reflexively turned back to look at Gu Santong's angry gaze.
Afraid of running out of sense, the four of them shivered as they lowered their heads, not daring to look into his eyes.
Gu Santong scratched his nose, swept the four with cold eyes and snorted, “Who punched me? Forward!”
“He did!”
The four of them did not even raise their heads as the three demons pointed directly at Violent Demon.
Violent Demon felt like kicking this despicable butt, but he was weak like a kitten in front of Gu Santong's sharp gaze.
She then showed a sad smile and cried, “It wasn't my fault, I would never have done it if I hadn't been forced!”
“Oh, who forced you?” Furrowing his brows, Gu Santong's fists tightened.
Swallow with dry, Violent Demon squeaking, “This ..”
Crunch!
The Violent Demon shuddered at that moment and its jaws froze open, but it could not make a sound. It was like something was being pushed down his throat.
Then, a cheerful shout entered their ears, “Gu Santong, you are finally here. Thank goodness, I thought we'd never see you again! ”
Tan Wen Hong and Li Jingtian staggered with their unfortunate bodies.
While Li Jingtian's face was tensed with anxiety, on the contrary, Tan Wen Hong's face showed excitement,
as if innocent. He even gave Gu Santong an old-fashioned comfortable hug.
The four demons now knew why the Violent Demon choked on his own voice. Tan Wen Hong's Bloodworm did its job!
Both of them had the lives of four demons in their hands. And offending any party now was a definite death no matter how they cut it.
So the three demons buried their heads on the ground to avoid seeing anyone.
Violent Demon's face twitched and shivered. He was afraid of his life. Thinking Tan Wen Hong would take his life to protect himself.
Out of Tan Wen Hong's embrace, Gu Santong looked at him with hatred. Tan Wen Hong was shocked and pretended to be innocent, “What's the matter?”
“Why did you run? Why do you set the lightning array here? ”
Gu Santong snapped at him. Li Jingtian gulped, his entire body frozen, while the four demons shivered.
Only Tan Wen Hong had a surprised expression, “What are you talking about? Who set up array?”
“You didn't set the lightning array?”
“As it were! You think we'd still be stuck with you if we could?
Tan Wen Hong rolled his eyes.
Gu Santong was speechless, the four demons were shocked, while confusion dominated everyone present.
“You mean you're also stuck there?” Gu Santong spoke, his tone still carrying anger, despite being calm.
Sighing, Tan Wen Hong shook his head, “Of course, or we will be long back with the ingredients!”
“What, you stuck here just to get the material?” Gu Santong cried, now his anger deflated.
Tan Wen Hong nodded, running his mouth, “Gu Santong, do you know why there is a class 6 lightning array here?”
Gu Santong shook his head, a mark he fully believed in Tan Wen Hong's lie.
“Because there is a valuable class 8 material here. Someone used an array to protect him!”
Tan Wen Hong spoke, “To help you get the material, we had to go to the lion's den, and could barely get out alive.
But luckily you got here on time! But why did you say we ran away? Didn't I tell you that we're going hunting for ingredients?”
“Eh, that..” Gu Santong blushed, playing his hand, like a child whose hand was clamped in a cake jar. A little sad and a little guilty.
They defied danger for her sake, yet she was here to blame them – for embarrassment!
Tan Wen Hong sighed, looked at Li Jingtian, and the two showed a carefree smile.
Gu Santong was really hated, but purely as a child, and more importantly, easily fooled.
The four Devil Planners became stupid.
They were afraid of the child because of his strength. But even after three centuries, he was still a child, easily duped. Why don't they think about that?
But Gu Santong's embarrassment only lasted a second as he pointed towards the Violent Devil with a frown,
“Then why are they moving around the ranks so freely, even giving me a punch? You are clearly against me! ”
Shuddering, they all felt shock and fear, with the four demons bowing their heads.
Li Jingtian's brows were wet, her lips were dry, and looked at Tan Wen Hong anxiously for help.
He might be a child in heart and mind, but everyone knew the mess he caused Tianyu three hundred years ago!
This was Tan Wen Hong's plan all along. If they can't hold it with the array,
then they will play. They also pretended to be victims, challenging the danger of death for the sake of the child.
This serves to explain why they are in line, and also score points of sympathy with the boy.
Without any real evidence, even if the child was dubious, he couldn't just throw them away when they gave everything to find the ingredients for him!
So, Tan Wen Hong and Li Jingtian had never once shown themselves while the arrangement was working, either,
just so they can play this game, and give themselves a way out.
However, who would have thought, that the Four Demon Fraudsters that Tan Wen Hong had asked to keep the child busy to his punch!
Li Jingtian spoke with his eyes.
Tan Wen Hong narrowed his eyes, as the four demons looked at him nervously.
They could feel it in their bones how the next words had the power to save them and punish them.
If Tan Wen Hong made them scapegoats, they would have no chance at all, except on a swift death.
At this moment, no one moved.
Gu Santong looked at Tan Wen Hong, waiting for his reply.
Li Jingtian also looked at him, waiting for his decision. The four Devil Planners begged him with their faces, their pitiful and pitiful faces.
Everyone's life depends on it!
“Eh..”
Tan Wen Hong finally opened his mouth, and instead of answering, he gave Gu Santong a question, “Do you know the array?”
“No!” Gu Santong blunt
“I guessed that much! That's cool!”
“Eh?” Gu Santong glared at him and
Tan Wen Hong hurriedly said, “Ha-ha-ha, don't get me wrong.
I just want to explain to you clearly so as not to burden your conscience with innocent murder!”
Tan Wen Hong rubbed his chin as he started, “Array rated from one to twelve according to his strength.
As for their type, they trap, kill, and a confusing array.
That thunder array was a killing type. But it also has a hidden trap set. Did you realize?”
Gu Santong nodded. He knew once he got into line, he would have to smash his way if he wanted to get out.
“But did you notice the confusing arrangement as well?”
Tan Wen Hong smiled faintly.
Gu Santong shook his head, “You mean a confused person caught me?”
But then he snorted, “No way. I don't feel any illusions around me. What I saw might be fake,
my nose never disappoints me. That guy hit me and I caught him with a red hand.”.
Appointed, the Violent Devil shivered in fear. At that moment, he was more cowardly than a Cowardly Demon.
But in the face of all this,
Tan Wen Hong wagged it, “I'm not saying that you're stuck in an illusion, but it is.
Let me ask you this. Did the four of you really attack Gu Santong?”
Shaking, the four of them reacted to Steward Tan Wen Hong's intent. He gave them a way out!
So they shook their heads and bowed, “We think you are someone else! Please forgive us!”
“Is that so? Then who is that little monster you keep talking about?” Gu Santong looked at them.
The four pointed at Tan Wen Hong on the spot, “Dia!”
Tan Wen Hong's face twitched and his anger boiled. Didn't that say they wanted to kill him? But this was not the time to fight with these four fools!
Gu Santong looked at him doubtfully, “You are also a monster?”
“Uh, before meeting you, they did call me that!” With an awkward laugh, Tan Wen Hong's fist crackled and Lightning Wings opened behind him, “Who can do this?”
Gu Santong's eyes twitched, “So. I've always thought you used a flying demon treasure when in fact it was bound to your body. You are indeed quite terrible! ”
It ends that.
Gu Santong was still doubtful, but could not find a reasonable reason to defeat them.
Everyone gave Tan Wen Hong a thumbs up, admired his deception, and put an end to this deadly situation.
Tan Wen Hong sighed and rejoiced inside.
Thank goodness we met Gu Santong. If it was anyone else, this blatant lie would not have flown and would have gotten us all killed instead. All because they hold doubts.
Anyone would rather kill a thousand innocents than miss the culprit!
This is where Gu Santong is different. Tan Wen Hong knew he was looking after the imperial family for three hundred years after a promise.
But only after becoming his captive did he fully understand that for this child, he,
words are gold, and he needs good reason when dealing with anyone.
When he slaughtered half the imperial city, it was because someone else pushed him. He didn't start it!
So Tan Wen Hong made a heroic, reckless and courageous gamble. But even this only had fifty-fifty chances.
If Gu Santong was still stubborn, they could only give in to the fate and fury of the child.
Fortunately, the boy was quite moral, not swinging his weight without a proper reason!
Taking a deep breath, Tan Wen Hong smiled. But then Gu Santong suddenly said, “Wait, since you all are doing this for materials, where is it?”
They're all frozen again.
Grade 8 materials were heavenly treasures. How did they find him?
Gu Santong's gaze once again came down …
