Sole Sword Supremacy-Chapter 505 - 509: The Plot Revealed, the Dagger Unveiled
"I can kill Prince Yu, just as easily as I can kill Princess Changlin."
There was a moment of silence, and then the Night Spirit Demon Venerable suddenly spoke.
This one sentence instantly froze the air around them. Wang Junze, who seemed indifferent to everything before, now had a glimmer of murderous intent in his eyes.
"I know you’re not afraid of death, but you’re too impatient."
The Night Spirit Demon Venerable said softly, "You tried to threaten me, but at the same time, you’ve exposed your own weakness."
"I can agree to your conditions, but only after obtaining the Great Nether Mirror." After a pause, the Night Spirit Demon Venerable continued, "Of course, you can refuse, but..."
"..."
Taking a deep breath, Wang Junze finally said in a deep voice, "How can I trust you?"
"You have no choice."
With a smile, the Night Spirit Demon Venerable spoke again, "Either take a chance and trust me, or... we both walk away!"
With just a few words, the situation was completely reversed.
"Qu Lishang is in the Netherworld Abyss..."
Seemingly exhausted, Wang Junze slumped to the ground again and replied in a muffled voice.
"Demon Venerable..."
Gazing at Lin Qiushui and the others, Situ Haokong asked in a deep voice.
In an instant, Lin Qiushui and Liu Daoyu felt a chill on their scalps, their eyes full of fear, yet they dared not utter a word.
On one side was the threat of the Night Spirit Demon Venerable, and on the other, the constraint of the Blood Covenant. Truly, they were in a dilemma about life and death, completely out of their own control.
"To kill Prince Yu, these people are still useful... I believe the Demon Venerable can find a way to keep them silent."
Raising his eyelids slightly, Wang Junze interjected again.
"..."
It was at this moment that a chill suddenly surged in the hearts of Lin Qiushui and Liu Daoyu.
If the Night Spirit Demon Venerable and Situ Haokong only saw Wang Junze’s madness and ruthlessness, then the two of them now felt a fear and helplessness that everything was under Wang Junze’s calculations from the very beginning.
It turned out that Wang Junze had planned everything from the start, including the Night Spirit Demon Venerable’s reaction and the way to preserve their lives.
...
Netherworld Abyss.
After disembarking from the Netherworld Flying Ship, Yang Hong and the Maiden of the Sea were calm enough, having been here before. However, Huang Siyu’s eyes were full of shock and fear.
This black sea water was something she had never seen in her life. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Has Pei Haoran sent any news?"
Peng Ru couldn’t help but ask.
"Not yet."
Shaking her head, the Maiden of the Sea explained in a deep voice, "The Night Spirit Demon Venerable would not let others know of his entry into the sea; Pei Haoran won’t be able to find out any specific information."
Having rushed to the Netherworld Abyss, now all they could do was trust Wang Junze’s judgment and plan, waiting for the Night Spirit Demon Venerable to show up.
"You mentioned before that there was a Saint Realm Powerhouse helping; are you sure he’s also in the Netherworld Abyss?"
Yang Hong looked at Peng Ru and asked.
Regardless of Huang Siyu’s greater strength, they all knew very well that Wang Junze certainly trusted Peng Ru more.
"I don’t know."
Peng Ru explained somewhat helplessly, "The young master only told me to find you and bring you to the Netherworld Abyss; he didn’t mention anything else."
"Even if it’s a Saint Realm, it’s impossible to enter Netherworld City quietly, or even to track the Night Spirit Demon Venerable, this is unrealistic... If they really show up, it will definitely be in the Netherworld Abyss. Even if we find the other side, I am afraid we won’t know anything about Ye Piaoling’s situation."
"It won’t be too long..."
After thinking for a moment, Yang Hong continued, "If the plan goes smoothly, Brother Ye will surely deceive the Night Spirit Demon Venerable in a very short time, and our speed arriving at the Nether Sea won’t be too different. After all, to bring Brother Ye into the sea without exposing identities, the other side must also be using the Netherworld Flying Ship."
As if to confirm Yang Hong’s words, the next moment, the group suddenly felt an extremely terrifying aura coming from the sea.
Demon Qi!
And it’s a particularly powerful Demon Qi!
"Go!"
Without any hesitation, they immediately headed towards the direction from which the Demon Qi came.
...
Rumble!
A terrible wave surged on the sea’s surface, and from beneath the waves, a whale slowly emerged. Its massive body was like a small island.
Whale!
This wasn’t the first time Wang Junze saw this Demon King.
But meeting it again still invoked an indescribable awe.
The Divine-Inviting Incense in his hand was nearly burnt out, and Wang Junze felt a twinge of tension inside. The moment of life and death had arrived!
"How do you have the Divine-Inviting Incense?"
Glancing at the incense in Wang Junze’s hand, the whale asked in a deep voice.
"Amitabha Buddha!"
Before Wang Junze could speak, a subtle Buddha Light suddenly emerged around them, and in a breath, Monk Benyin’s figure stepped out from the void!
Only at this moment did Wang Junze’s heart finally settle.
It worked!
The Nether Sea is vast, and the Netherworld Abyss is also quite large; he couldn’t pinpoint the exact location. So the only way to draw Monk Benyin and Yang Hong to him was to use the Divine-Inviting Incense to lure out the whale.
With such a terrifying Demon Qi, as long as they were nearby, the others would surely follow the aura to find them.
And the only chance to shake off the Night Spirit Demon Venerable was to let Monk Benyin hold him off while Wang Junze escaped with the whale to the Inverted Mountain!
"Xuankong Temple? Who are you?"
Narrowing his eyes slightly, the Night Spirit Demon Venerable instinctively grew cautious, staring intently at Monk Benyin and questioning him.
In fact, even at this moment, the Night Spirit Demon Venerable didn’t suspect Wang Junze.
"Amitabha Buddha!"
Chanting the Buddha’s name again, Monk Benyin joined his hands and spoke softly, "The humble monk is Benyin!"
As he spoke, a powerful Buddha Light enveloped the Night Spirit Demon Venerable, directly slicing the battlefield in half.
"Junior Wang Junze, from the Judgment Department, requesting your guidance to take me to the Inverted Mountain!"
Stepping forward, Wang Junze promptly leapt onto the whale’s back and spoke in a deep voice.
"Ye Piaoling, do you dare?!"
In an instant, Situ Haokong suddenly reacted, his eyes gleaming with a fierce killing intent as he lunged towards Wang Junze with a palm strike.
"Stop him!"
With a cold snort, Wang Junze ordered indifferently.
Almost simultaneously, Liu Daoyu and Lin Qiushui both moved to confront Situ Haokong.
With the dagger drawn!
At this point, there was no need to hide identities any longer. Both of them acting in concert was a twist even Situ Haokong hadn’t anticipated.
"Are you all in cahoots?"
His face changed dramatically, and Situ Haokong couldn’t help but exclaim.
All the clues seemed to connect at that moment. Being captured by Prince Yu’s people—all a ruse, these people... were brought by Wang Junze himself, acting out a play to fool the Night Spirit Demon Venerable all along!
