Chapter 0088 – Brotherhood – The Absolute Return

After bathing and dressing, Jian Wuyang stood quietly in front of the bronze mirror, allowing the maid to drape him in clean and tidy clothes.

He first put on a light inner armor, which was hard for knives and guns to enter, and could withstand attacks from unusual blades. He then put on a slightly thicker outer robe, wrapping himself up tightly.

This almost paranoid defensive stance was unreservedly displayed in front of the Demon Buddha.

The Devil Buddha sat on the sidelines, quietly observing all of this, his mind reeling with thoughts.

“Yunnan two monsters” matter, Jian Wuyang did not mention a word, as if the bloody storm last night never happened. But the devil Buddha knows that his heart has long been furious.

“Mr. Lee he ……”

The Magic Buddha wanted to say “too much change”, but the words came out of his mouth but swallowed back, this is too perfunctory.

“What kind of a man is he?”

“You pride yourself on knowing him like the back of your hand, but last night it seemed like you didn’t know him. He’s, well, not the same teenager he was ……”

In the bronze mirror, Jian Wuyang’s face was blurred, but his tone was permeated with a hint of complex emotions.

“Let bygones be bygones!”

The Devil Buddha suddenly raised his voice, a few imperceptible hints of panic in his tone.

“Ah!”

The maid was startled by the sudden voice, and with a tremor in her hand movements, her sharp nails actually accidentally scratched Jian Wu Yang’s neck.

“Yes, I’m sorry! Your Excellency forgive me!”

The maid was scared out of her wits and hurriedly fell to her knees, kowtowing uncontrollably and begging for forgiveness.

“There’s no harm in it, it’s just a small thing, why should it matter?”

Jian Wuyang spoke in a gentle tone, but Devil Buddha sneered from the side:

“A trifle? This is not a trivial matter! How could the son of a Heavenly Demon tolerate such insolence from a tiny maid? Wouldn’t people laugh their asses off if it was spread out?”

When the maid heard this, she was even more frightened and desperately kowtowed for mercy:

“Pray for the Duke’s mercy! Please beg the Demon Lord for mercy! The slave girl will never dare again!”

Seeing this, Jian Wuyang sighed softly and helped the maid up:

“A man is not a saint, who can’t make mistakes? You shall retire.”

“Mr. Xie! Thank you, sir!”

The maid exited the room in a panic as if she had been pardoned.

“When an underling makes a mistake, they must not be easily forgiven, or they will forget what rules are!”

Devil Buddha looked at the departing back of the maid and said coldly.

“You asked me earlier what kind of person Wuji is.”

Jian Wuyang suddenly spoke, interrupting the words of the Demon Buddha.

“Nice.”

The Devil Buddha froze slightly, then nodded.

“If he were in his place, he would have comforted the maid with kind words, and even given her some silver to ease her fears. He has been kind-hearted since he was a child, and cannot see others suffer.”

“A woman is not enough to be feared!”

The Devil Buddha snorted coldly, clearly not impressed with Jian Wuji’s comment.

“I’m not a womanizer, I just think that there are some things that don’t have to be too harsh.”

Jian Wu Yang said, stood up, walked over to the table, and poured himself a cup of tea.

“Are you worried about something?”

He picked up his teacup and gently took a sip, but his gaze always fell on the Demon Buddha.

“Duke Li’s strength is certainly terrifying, but what worries me more is the Blood Heavenly Dao Demon. That old man, he’s old and cunning, and since he chose Prince Li, he must have his reasons. Perhaps, just as you said, he, the Prince Li, has really changed.”

“Perhaps he has some unknown card ……”

The Devil Buddha said, a hint of scorn flashing in his eyes.

“I do think that the answer may lie with the father.”

Jian Wuyang put down his teacup and spoke in a shocking manner.

“What does that mean?”

Devil Buddha was instantly interested.

“Father has taken good care of Wuji during the time I was away. Not only did he pass on the Black Demon Sword to him, but he also let him take charge of the Yellow Springs Corner. All of this is perhaps father’s test for me, he wants to see how I should respond in the face of Wuji, whose strength has skyrocketed.”

“This, is the final test to become a Heavenly Demon!”

Jian Wuyang’s tone was filled with confidence.

The Devil Buddha couldn’t help but nod his head as he heard this, it was indeed very possible.

“But ……”

He suddenly thought of something and frowned slightly.

“I’m afraid that the death of the Soul Regenerating Demon is not that simple. He died from going off the deep end, but there are a lot of doubts in it ……”

At first, he believed Sect Leader Feng Tian’s words and thought that Jian Wuji had nothing to do with this matter. But now, it seemed that things were not that simple, I’m afraid.

“Are you saying that this matter is related to Mr. Li?”

An exquisite light flashed in Jian Wuyang’s eyes.

“It’s very likely! Think about it, the Sect Master, his old man, valued the Soul Regeneration lineage the most, how could he easily let his disciple switch to someone else?”

“Unless ……”

The Devil Buddha suddenly thought of something, and his face turned ugly.

“Unless, all of this was manipulated behind the scenes by Sect Master Windsky! He’s the one who killed the Soul Regenerating Demon and then framed Mr. Li for it!”

“That’s right! He purposely called us here so that we could witness the ‘strength’ of Sir Li with our own eyes and make us fear him!”

The more the Devil Buddha thought about it, the more terrifying it became, the Windy Sky Sect Master, to have such a deep heart!

“Isn’t he afraid that things will fall apart and set him on fire?”

The Devil Buddha was still a bit incredulous, Sect Leader Windsky, was he really that bold?

“Of course he’s not afraid! Because he knows that we will keep his secret!”

Jian Wuyang sneered, his eyes filled with mockery.

“He had anticipated that we would choose to cooperate with him in order to deal with Duke Li. He, on the other hand, can reap the benefits!”

The Devil Buddha suddenly realized that this was the case!

“Good Sect Leader Windy Sky! Surprisingly, he’s playing us for fools!”

He said through gritted teeth, his heart filled with anger and resentment.

“So, all the more reason to stay calm and not let him get away with it!”

A glint flashed in Jian Wuyang’s eyes as he said in a deep voice.

“What are you going to do?”

Devil Buddha asked in a hurry.

“I’m going to pull together all those who are dependent on Mr. Li! This person, Mr. Li, has a strong sense of self-esteem, and once he realizes that he has been betrayed by his own family, he will definitely be disheartened, and may even leave the Devil Sect on his own accord!”

“Did you see that? Those people who don’t want to watch the bout, they, they’re the ones who can really bring down Mr. Li!”

Jian Wuyang’s tone was filled with confidence.

“But if we let him leave alive, there will be endless trouble afterward!”

Devil Buddha was still a little worried.

“Don’t worry, he won’t be a threat to us. Even if he leaves the Demon Sect, he won’t be our enemy. That’s his weakness and his fatal weakness!”

Jian Wuyang said, stood up, walked to the bronze mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, and said faintly:

“The position of Heavenly Demon is supreme, is it something that someone as indecisive as Mr. Li can get his hands on?”

……

Early the next morning, my big brother and I walked into the Heavenly Demon Hall side by side.

“The two of us brothers, how long has it been since we stepped into this Heavenly Demon Hall together?”

“It’s been a long time.”

I responded blandly, but my mind was unperturbed.

“Are you, uh, nervous?”
