The Art of Chaotic Divinity-Chapter 1107: Devils Love-Forgetting Curse

"There is no need to rush."

Lin Canglang let out a cold laugh. "Ling Feng, I know exactly what you are plotting. As long as that old geezer Duanmu remains unharmed, your next move will be to strike at me."

Ling Feng's gaze turned icy. He didn't deny it, instead replying coldly, "So what if I am?"

"Look, I've gotten stronger lately, but from what I saw you do back there, I'm not stupid enough to think I can walk away from you unscathed. I'll give Duanmu geezer back, but you gotta wait here three days. Let me finish setting up my Spirit Illusion Formation so I know I'm safe. Then he's all yours."

Lin Canglang narrowed his eyes and gave a sinister laugh. "That request is not unreasonable, is it?"

A flash of ice gleamed in Ling Feng's eyes as he fixed his stare on him. "You devil, your schemes may let you slip away for a while, but you will never escape forever."

Although his tone was forceful, Ling Feng secretly let out a breath of relief. Thanks to the Essence Blood Pearl, much of his strength had already recovered. But at present, he dared not use Chaotic Rebirth again. As for fusing his soul with Despicable Donkey's beast spirit, his current state would not allow him to unleash its full power.

The fact that Lin Canglang had been intimidated by the strength Ling Feng displayed in the Demon Ruler's palace and now avoided direct conflict was exactly what Ling Feng had hoped for, though he suspected Lin Canglang harbored other intentions as well.

"If I had not planned carefully, I would have died at your hands long ago."

Lin Canglang gave a strange laugh and raised three fingers. "Three days. After that, I will return the old geezer Duanmu without so much as a hair missing. Besides, Xian'er, do you not wish to see your father again and share the joy of reunion?"

Lin Xian'er bit down hard on her lip, glaring at him with hatred. "You devil, stop spouting nonsense. You and I are sworn enemies!"

Lin Canglang burst out laughing. "No matter. Stay here with Ling Feng and wait. In three days, you will see your true father. That will be quite the touching scene of father and daughter together!"

"If you plan to dig your rat hole and flee, then get on with it. Stop wasting words. No one expects a dog's mouth to spit out ivory!"

Ling Feng pulled Lin Xian'er to a seat at the table. He tapped his fingers lightly on the wood and sneered. "I will wait in this place for three days. Now leave."

"You—!"

Blood Sword Heavenly Lord's eyes burned with anger. With his current cultivation, he could already rival the lower emperor tier, yet to be ordered about so rudely by Ling Feng made his blood boil.

Before he could act, Lin Canglang stopped him. After a brief exchange of glances, the two turned and left the stone chamber.

A heavy rumble shook the air as the stone door closed. Lin Xian'er scanned their surroundings, biting down on her teeth. "Ling Feng, do you really believe they will hand him over?"

"Of course not." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Ling Feng's lip curled into a cold smile. "I would never believe a single word from that old devil. Since he left me here, he must have a plan. And I think I already know what it is."

"What plan?" Lin Xian'er's eyes widened.

"Lean closer."

Ling Feng smiled faintly and whispered into her ear.

"Xian'er, keep your expression calm."

"Mm..."

She gave a small nod, understanding his intention.

What Ling Feng revealed shocked her deeply, yet because of his warning she managed to keep her face composed.

Women truly were natural born actors!

"Will this really work? Won't you be in danger? What if you lose control?" Lin Xian'er's voice trembled with unease.

"Even if it fails, I must try."

Ling Feng drew a deep breath, closed his eyes, and began to rest.

What he told her was that Lin Canglang had already planted a Gu Curse inside him. In his sea of consciousness, countless hidden marks had taken root. They came from the Supreme Lotus Seed.

The seed harbored unimaginably pure and terrifying power. Ling Feng had tasted its overwhelming power when he absorbed it. . But as the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation revealed, that very power concealed a venomous curse, one that could erode the mind from within.

It was not a toxin in the usual sense, and it could only be expelled by strong spiritual will.

Originally, the Supreme Lotus Seed was Lin Canglang's way of controlling the Silver Wolf Demon Emperor. But Ling Feng took it by chance, and the curse ended up inside him instead.

Now that Lin Canglang knew the seed was in Ling Feng's possession, he would never miss the chance to use it as a leash.

Within these three days, he would certainly attempt to trigger the marks of the Gu Curse inside Ling Feng.

What he did not know was that Ling Feng's sea of mind housed the spiritual thoughts of a Great Emperor, a master of spiritual refinement. That Emperor had already discovered the hidden danger in the lotus seed and suppressed the curse marks.

So when Lin Canglang thought he had him under control, that would be the very moment Ling Feng would strike.

To make the act convincing, Ling Feng even allowed the Tianbai Emperor's spiritual manifestation to release a few of the marks. With his willpower, resisting a handful of them would not be difficult.

...

One day passed quickly.

At some point, Lin Xian'er had fallen into deep sleep. Ling Feng, meanwhile, sat with a cold smile. From the moment they entered the stone chamber, a faint fragrance had drifted in from outside. It was not poisonous, but it soothed the mind and calmed the spirit. In small amounts, it was harmless. Over time, it induced sleep.

Lin Canglang clearly knew of Ling Feng's mastery of medicine and dared not use poison. Instead, he had chosen this subtler method to dull his vigilance.

Ling Feng smirked and played along, closing his eyes and pretending to drift in and out of slumber.

Outside the chamber, Lin Canglang and Blood Sword Heavenly Lord exchanged a glance and sneered. "The time has come!"

Lin Canglang nodded. "Once I use the Devil's Love-Forgetting Curse to awaken the Corpse Fiend Gu inside him, he will soon lose himself and become my puppet!"

Blood Sword Heavenly Lord's eyes shone with greed. "Ling Feng thinks he's won by taking the Supreme Lotus Seed. He doesn't realize he's just walking into our trap. Soon, he'll be nothing more than a puppet. How amusing!"

"Heh heh heh!"

Lin Canglang let out a low, menacing chuckle. "Once I control him, the first thing I will do is have him cut down that old geezer Duanmu with his own hands."

The two devils looked at each other and burst into eerie laughter.
