Chapter 0216 – Are You Afraid of Ultimate Soma – Absolute Returns

Early the next morning, a carriage quietly drove out of the Heavenly Demon God Sect.

On the carriage sat Sword Wuji, Extremely Evil Laughing Demon, and Poison King.

In the distance, Heavenly Demon Sword Wudu and Military Counselor Sima Ming were watching the carriage go away.

“It’s time for me to resign from my position as Military Master.” Sima Ming suddenly said.

Jian Wu Chen looked at him in disbelief, and Sima Ming smiled to himself.

“I never expected that Li An would be able to make the Poison King learn to bark like a dog in the martial arts arena. I’ve known for a long time that he’s extraordinary, but I didn’t realize that he could even subdue the Poison King.”

Jian Wu Chen nodded.

“Me too.”

“What shocked me even more was that the Bishop would grant his request.”

“Now that you’ve promised, you’ll just have to do as you’re told.”

Sima Ming knew that Jian Wuchen had always been a man of his word. Therefore, he should have resolutely opposed it in the first place instead of leaving the Poison King an opportunity to take advantage of it.

“Could it be that the godfather had anticipated this?”

Sima Ming suddenly came up with this thought. He realized that he couldn’t see through Jian Wuchen more and more, especially when it came to the matter of treating Jian Wuji.

“During this operation, you will tell Wuji all the information.”

“Yes, the Tongtian Pavilion will cooperate fully.”

“And prepare for the worst.”

There were two worst-case scenarios: one was that although the mission was successful, Yelu Han’s death was found to be related to the Heavenly Demon God Cult; the other was that Jian Wuji and the two Demon Elders had missed the mark and were in danger.

In either case, it would trigger serious consequences. Although the Evil Dao Alliance wouldn’t dare to openly go to war with the Heavenly Demon Divine Sect, they would definitely propose a huge amount of compensation, and if we refused to do so, they would most likely join forces with the Martial Arts Alliance to deal with us. And if Sword Wuji or the two Demon Sovereigns were to die in battle or be seriously injured, the consequences would be equally unimaginable.

There was no way that Jian Wuchen didn’t know this, but he still chose to agree to Jian Wuji’s request.

“Could it be that the Sect Leader is trying to use this opportunity to stir up the situation in the martial arts?”

Sima Ming knew that sooner or later, Jian Wuchen would make a move against the martial arts, and he suspected that Jian Wuchen was trying to use this opportunity to start a war.

But one thing was certain, not only had the Demon Zuns changed, even the Heavenly Devils had changed. If it were before, he would never have stood here and watched that carriage go away.

“Lee Ann, you must return safely.”

This wind of change had not only swept through the Heavenly Demon God Sect, but was also about to sweep through the entire martial arts world.

The person who drove the car was Xu Dalong.

Last night, I went to see Xu DaLong and told him that he was going to leave with me tomorrow, and he immediately started to act pathetic.

“I’m not going! What dangerous place are you taking me to again?”

“Nothing dangerous, you just need to drive for me and run errands.”

“The more you say this, the more suspicious I feel that this is clearly a trap.”

“It’s not a trap, it’s an adventure, it’s growth, it’s memories.”

“These things add up to danger. I’m sorry, but I refuse! I’m already the champion of the Little Dragon Battle, and I’m going to live off that name for the rest of my life.”

“No one is good enough for this job but you.”

“There are so many experts in this Sect, why do you choose to look for me?”

“This matter concerns me and the fate of this Sect, and even the entire martial arts world, I need an absolutely reliable person, someone who can keep secrets. At the very least, there won’t be a witch to seduce you.”

“You’re taking me to my sore spot again.”

Finally, I said the words that he couldn’t refuse.

“We’re going to avenge those who died.”

The playful smile on Xu Dalong’s face disappeared.

“All the more reason I should go.”

In this way, Xu Dalong rushed to drive early in the morning with the determination to avenge the dead.

“Why do we need to take a carriage? Can’t the two of us just fly there?”

“Because we’re not two people.”

“Huh?”

Xu Dalong curiously glanced toward the carriage and immediately turned pale with fear. He hurriedly pulled me aside and asked in a low voice, “Why are the two of them in the carriage?”

“Of course they’re coming with me to help me.”

“You didn’t tell me that I was going to drive for the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon and Lord Poison King! You quickly tell me who exactly is our target?”

“Jehan.”

Xu Dalong froze for a moment and asked, “The Yelu Han you are talking about, it can t be …… won t be right? You do not joke, quickly tell me that it is not him.”

He turned and tried to run away, and I hastened to say, “Tell the boy for me that we have avenged him.”

Xu Dalong stopped walking, he hung his head and walked to the carriage, saying, “If you say so, can I still not go?”

I knew that he was just being tough, that he was scared but would never run away from the battle.

He wants to avenge that child, and moreover, he also wants to join me in my adventures. The last time we went on a mission together, not only did he become a disciple of the Blood Heavenly Demoness, he also won the Little Dragon Battle.

For this mission, I need Xu Dalong’s help, and for the driving thing alone, it’s none other than him. If I were to drive instead, the atmosphere in the carriage would be very awkward.

The Extremely Evil Laughing Demon and the Poison King hadn’t said a word since they got on the bus, and the relationship between them was, indeed, terrible.

I had anticipated this situation, but I did not deliberately set them up. If they were meant to be, they would naturally become friends, and if not, then let them continue to keep their distance.

“I’ve gotten the information about Yelu Han from the Tongtian Pavilion, and they will continue to provide new information.”

I didn’t tell them that High Moon and Sect Leader Windy Sky were also helping me gather intelligence. The two of them would also meet us in the middle of the operation and assist us in accomplishing our mission.

“The place we’re going to now is where the ‘Golden Pig’ Ikuo, who refined the Divine Immortal Grass, is located. The specific plan will be discussed when we get there.”

“All at your service.”

Extreme Evil Laughing Demon replied respectfully. The Poison King stole a glance at me as if he wanted to say something, but he held back due to the presence of the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon.

“Let me ask you a question, why does the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon like you so much?” The Poison King’s voice rang in my head.

“Why don’t you just say it, instead of using a voice transmission?”

“I don’t know him well, so how can I ask you to your face? Have you been caught by him in some way? Why is he being so nice to you?”

“If you use a voice transmission, I won’t answer. You are a man, so you should ask openly!”

The Poison King twisted his head and looked out the window.

The Extremely Evil Laughing Demon turned his head to look at me when he sensed that the Poison King was talking to me with a voice transmission. I smiled and nodded, just the eye contact made me feel incredibly happy, it was incredible.

The Poison King didn’t pursue the matter about the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon any further, but instead asked another question.

“You don’t have a plan now, will you have one when you get there?”

“I don’t have an armorer now, but I will when I get there.”

“Warlord? Master Szema?”

The Poison King doesn’t yet know that High Moon and Sect Leader Windy Sky have submitted to me.

“No, I have my own warlord.”

“I can’t believe you already have an armorer?”

“How can you walk the rivers and lakes without a military advisor? Who hasn’t had a master-at-arms who doesn’t know how to play chess?”

The Poison King looked at me with a puzzled expression, if it were normal, he would have spoken out in mockery, but right now, he was in the way of the Extremely Evil Laughing Demon’s presence, so he could only hold his tongue.

“Are you afraid of Lord Laughing Demon?” I asked with a voice transmission.
