My Master Knows It All

818: Chapter 237_2 818: Chapter 237_2 “The corpse will be handled by junior sister.”

Qian Jiao searched through Qian Wu’s body, took away his Qiankun Bag, and then her hands gathered layer upon layer of solid mana.

She struck Qian Wu’s body repeatedly, turning his corpse into an unrecognizable mess of flesh and blood.

She then took out a jade bottle, opened the lid, and sprinkled the liquid inside over Qian Wu’s body.

Instantly, a hissing sound came from Qian Wu’s body as it visibly began to dissipate at a rate detectable to the naked eye.

In just a few breaths’ time, Qian Wu’s corpse had completely vanished, not even a single bone left behind.

Cao Zhen watched Qian Jiao’s proficient manner, full of admiration in his heart.

This was the Demon Sect!

From Qian Jiao’s actions, it was clear this wasn’t her first time doing something like this.

In the Demon Sect, even becoming Sect Leader didn’t guarantee safety, as there were so many eyeing the position, thinking how best to kill the Sect Leader and take their place.

Compared to righteous sects like the Hundred Peaks Sect, the living conditions in these demon sects were far more hostile.

And then there was this woman.

He couldn’t decide for the moment whether her intention to kill the Sun Moon Demon and have the Eclipse Demon become Sect Leader was genuine or if she was plotting to use the Eclipse Demon.

Who knew if she was deceiving the Eclipse Demon’s emotions?

He had to be careful not to let this woman cause his demise.

Thinking it over, Cao Zhen found himself with a headache.

What was this situation?

The Eclipse Demon was undoubtedly an enemy, but now because of the connection to the Eclipse Demon, he found himself worrying about the devil’s safety.

If the Eclipse Demon died, his connection would have been in vain and he would be without an insider in the future.

A headache, truly a headache.

And there were the remnants of the previous dynasty.

It wasn’t enough that there was a Third Prince; now there was talk of a Fourth Prince.

It wouldn’t be long before a Fifth Prince or a Second Prince emerged.

Cao Zhen watched for a while longer, noting that after dealing with Qian Wu’s body, the two didn’t speak much more, only hastening their pace.

Seeing that there was nothing else of use to him, he withdrew from the China Cloud.

Now, he needed to carefully consider how to deceive the Eclipse Demon under the guise of a senior with great ability.

The night passed quickly.

Cao Zhen and the others set out again, continuing to follow the map.

Li Ke was still unconscious, but her breathing was noticeably stronger, and even Ling Xi, who was carrying her, could distinctly feel Li Ke’s heartbeat.

In fact, after half a day, even while flying, Cao Zhen and Yan Yourong could clearly hear Li Ke’s heartbeat.

“It looks like Li Ke should be waking up soon.”

A hint of joy finally appeared on Cao Zhen’s face.

He truly had not expected Li Ke to sleep for so long after taking the Nirvana Pill.

“Over there, what is that?”

Suddenly, Linghu Gudu pointed in a distant direction, and everyone looked along where he pointed.

They could vaguely see a blurry white tower in the distance.

“A tower?

We’ve been in the ruins for so long and finally came across a building.

Let me check the map; it seems the final destination indicated by the map is that tower.”

“Finally, after so many days of flying, we’ve reached our destination.”

“Let’s go, we must reach our destination before nightfall.”

The group quickened their pace, and they finally arrived at their destination just as darkness was about to fall.

It was indeed a tower, an immense tower the likes of which they had never seen before.

Cao Zhen even felt that the building before them couldn’t justly be described as a tower but should be called a vast complex of palaces.

This tower, entirely white, was so vast that it appeared even larger than some towering mountains.

Aside from its size, from the outside, the tower didn’t seem to have any other notable features.

Looking at the tower before him, Cao Zhen suddenly recalled what he had seen before of the place where the Eclipse Demon and others were, wondering if this place would be like the labyrinth they had entered.

Linghu Gudu, looking at the tower, said in a low voice, “Everyone, apart from the tower, we did not pass any caves on our way here, and night is about to fall.

Should we find a cave to take shelter for the night and then enter the tower tomorrow?”

It had been difficult to reach this place, and of course, he wanted to enter the tower immediately, but the night was when skeletons and wraiths appeared.

If they went in now and encountered skeletons and wraiths while also having to face the dangers within the tower, the situation would become truly perilous.

“There’s no need to look for caves anymore.

First, there are no caves nearby, and even if we went looking for them, we might not find any.

Secondly, it’s not certain there are skeletons inside.”

Cao Zhen recalled the scenes from the previous night.

Last night, the Eclipse Demon and his companions hadn’t entered any caves but had been inside what seemed like a maze-like structure.

He had watched for most of the night and had not seen the Eclipse Demon or Qian Jiao encounter a single skeleton or wraith.

Therefore, inside this tower before them, there was a high probability of no skeletons.

As Cao Zhen spoke, he stepped forward and placed his hands on the great doors of the tower, pushing them open.

Behind him, everyone saw Cao Zhen’s actions and entered the tower as well, even Linghu Gudu without hesitation.

After all, the person before them was a person of great ability reincarnated.

If a person of Great Ability said there were no skeletons, then there must be none…
