Practice begins with immortality

Chapter 238 Holy Son

"So, Brother Long, what do you think?" The One-Horned Demon and Tong looked at each other and asked Wang Bai in unison.

They had already explained everything clearly to Wang Bo. At this moment, both of them stared at Wang Bo intently, waiting for his response.

Wang Bai sat there, his brow furrowed, lost in thought. He thought to himself, "This man named Tong and the unicorn demon before me both have ulterior motives, each with their own agenda. But…" At this thought, Wang Bai's mind shifted, and he secretly instructed the system to perform a simulation analysis based on the current situation. A moment later, the system's results reassured him—this approach was highly feasible.

"It seems that agreeing to their request might not be a bad idea. This will save a lot of time. After I successfully obtain the Dharma Eyes, I can quickly escape from this place. Of course, if there is any conspiracy or trap hidden here, my strength should be enough to force it out!"

After making up his mind, Wang Bai raised his head, looked at the unicorn and Tong, and said, "In that case, I will participate in this important matter."

The unicorn demon was overjoyed upon hearing this and praised loudly, "Haha, Brother Long is indeed a generous man!" Then he hurriedly added, "In that case, let's wait a few more days. I will definitely find one or two fellow Taoists, and then we will accompany you, Brother Long, to kill the traitor Xuanmo!"

However, Wang Bo waved his hand and said firmly, "Don't bother. I'm enough."

"Alright, Brother Long is truly a strong man! In that case, here's the information I gathered from the members of the guild who have had contact with Xuan Mo. It contains some information about his methods, as well as intelligence on the location of his current lair."

As he spoke, the one-horned demon took out a jade tube and handed it to Wang Bai.

After that, Wang Bai left here directly.

And then, in an unknown and strange space, as if time had frozen in time, a figure in a white robe appeared within. Undoubtedly, this person was Tong, who had previously communicated with Wang Bo through a special method.

At this moment, Tong was sitting upright on a majestic throne carved from a huge black stone, her figure as straight as a pine tree, emitting an awe-inspiring aura. At this moment, a strange sight suddenly appeared before Tong—a human figure composed entirely of deep shadows quietly emerged.

Seeing the newcomer, Tong narrowed his eyes slightly and asked softly, "Shadow, did you accurately remember the breath of the Stinging Insect Demon Dragon that just communicated with me?"

Upon hearing this, the figure known as "Shadow" immediately replied respectfully, "Master, I have deeply imprinted that aura into my mind. There is no way I could be wrong."

Hearing this answer, Tong nodded in satisfaction, and then decisively issued an order: "Very good, in that case, you will leave immediately, sneak up to his side, and closely monitor his every move! No mistakes!"

"As you command, Master," Shadow replied without hesitation. As soon as he finished speaking, his body instantly transformed into countless tiny shadows, which flew off in all directions like nimble birds, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

As for why "Shadow" was sent to carry out this undercover mission, the reason was simple: the Holy Eye was too important, and the pupil dared not take risks lightly.

After all, if Wang Bo cannot successfully suppress Xuan Mo in a short period of time, the "shadow" hiding in the dark will not hesitate to attack and launch a fatal assassination attack on Xuan Mo.

However, in Tong's opinion, for Wang Bo, a stinging insect dragon, to kill a Xuan Mo whose power was lower than his own and whose bloodline was suppressed by him should be as easy as taking something out of a bag. Therefore, Tong was still confident in the final outcome of this operation.

Immediately afterwards, Tong sat upon the Black Stone Throne and began to ponder quietly. At this moment, countless complex thoughts flooded into his mind like a tide, forcing him to concentrate on sorting out and analyzing them. What could possibly be causing his intense contemplation? Perhaps only time would reveal the answer...

On the other side, in the One-Horned Demon's Holy Eye Ranch, in an extremely secret space.

At this moment, the unicorn was holding a mysterious communication symbol and talking to an unknown being.

Looking closely, he saw a horrifying picture displayed on the virtual screen projected by the communication symbol - a giant centipede head with a human face was communicating with the unicorn demon.

"Xuan Mo, when the time is right, you only need to put up a slight resistance, feign defeat, and ultimately be killed by the dragonworm." The unicorn demon gave the order to the centipede head on the screen with an expressionless face, his tone cold and ruthless. However, his expression at this moment was in stark contrast to the fawning and ingratiating demeanor he had displayed before Wang Bo.

Hearing this, the centipede-like black demon couldn't help but let out a sinister sneer and sneered, "Huh, that's easy for you to say, as if I could really survive from that guy's hands. You know, that's a stinging insect dragon! In terms of cultivation realm alone, it's a whole small realm higher than me. Unicorn, you're really capable of coming up with such an idea! You're really capable!" His words were full of ridicule and dissatisfaction with the Unicorn Demon, and there was also a bit of sarcasm.

"Hehe." The unicorn demon laughed instead of getting angry. He said, "Don't I know you? You definitely have a way to save your life. And this is the order of the Holy Son himself. I'm just following it."

"But don't worry, the Holy Son has no intention of letting you die. He just wants you to parasitize your soul in a Holy Eye. Then, hehe."

Hearing the words "Holy Son" and the plan, the creature reacted and said, "Okay, for the sake of the Holy Son's plan, I will sacrifice this body!"

Hearing this, the unicorn demon pointed out to him: "Oh, you're so ungrateful after getting the advantage!"

"When the time comes, won't the summoned ancient ancestor's Dharma Eye be your new body?!"

Hearing the communication between these two things, one can't help but wonder: Who is the Holy Son they are talking about?
