Chapter 689: The Betrayal of the Paladin
The teleportation staff can only transport the user. Dampes is still alive. If he is judged as another unit, Luo Jun might teleport him away and leave him behind. But Luo Jun might still have something to ask him, so it is not convenient to kill him directly now, so he simply put him into the smart equipment bag. According to previous experience, he should be able to be taken away as an item.

Anyway, with the ability of this demon king, even if he is seriously injured, a period of vacuum environment will not do any harm to him.

Of course, the Fram magic core in the equipment bag must be taken out, otherwise it will absorb enough energy in it and it will be difficult to control it when it comes out.

As for the magic core, Luo Jun had already wiped out its soul. Rather than being a person, it was more like a piece of living meat... It was like an apple. Although it still had vitality and might grow into a tree if buried in the soil, it was ultimately just an object.

As the chanting ended, the halo dissipated and the surrounding environment suddenly changed. When everything stabilized, Luo Jun found himself in a prison. Opposite him sat the weak Old Yuan.

"Master!" Luo Jun immediately stepped forward to check on his master's condition and found that he was not injured or sick. The main reason was that the serious pollution had not subsided. In addition, the shackles that sealed his vital energy made him unable to fight against the pollution and his physique was weak.

"You...really came out?" Yuan looked up at Luo Jun and smiled with relief: "I'm glad you're okay...I was worried about you..."

"Stop talking, Master." Luo Jun tore off the shackles, took out the chess piece of creation, took out the skill card, rolled the dice, drew one from it, and after activating it, the healing light sprinkled on Old Yuan.

This was not an ordinary treatment; its main function was to purify pollution. The cracked skin and exposed scales on Yuan Lao's body began to fade away at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even the newly grown magic horns on his head and the tail behind him shrank greatly.

But the pollution was too serious after all, and this card could not completely cure it, but at least it was no longer a big deal.

"Huh..." Elder Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling refreshed. He looked at the card in Luo Jun's hand and said in surprise, "This treasure of yours is truly magical. It has all kinds of functions and can even form its own world. Where did you get it?"

"That's a long story." Luo Jun shook his head: "Master, where is Desdonie? Why did you leave yourself here? Where is this place?"

"This is the capital of the Northern Province of the Glorious Empire." Yuan Lao said, "This cell is the Black Stone Prison of the Northern Lord, Grand Duke Osman. The cell is made of special materials and has a powerful restraining magic circle drawn on it, which is specially used to imprison various mysterious creatures. Even if you open my shackles, the magic power here is suppressing my strength, and it is difficult to get out."

"Binding array?" Luo Jun moved his arms: "Why don't I feel anything?"

"If you put a brick on an elephant's head, it won't feel anything, but try putting one on a mouse's head?" Yuan Lao's tone was slightly reproachful, but his eyes were full of pride as he looked at Luo Jun: "You've really made it, kid. The body of a saint is no joke!"

“In that case, let’s get out quickly!” Luo Jun took out the staff of the Gate of All Worlds and was about to take Old Yuan back to the main world.

"Wait!" Yuan Lao stopped him: "We can't just leave like this!"

"Anything else?" Luo Jun asked curiously.

"Desdonie is currently in secret talks with Grand Duke Osman. I don't know what conspiracy they are."

"They are two people from another world, they can do whatever they want, what does it have to do with us!" Luo Jun was about to open the door with his staff.

"It's different!" Old Yuan stopped him again: "Grand Duke Osman is not from another world, he is a polluter!"

"The Polluter?" Luo Jun was shocked. "He has become a Grand Duke? Is this Polluter so powerful?"

"He is not only doing well in the Empire, but he was also a powerful figure in Xiluo." Yuan Lao introduced: "Osman, the former chief paladin of the Empire, a contemporary of the Pope, and one of the three archangels of the Church before Julia!"

"He is an angel? Is he a metamorphosis?" Luo Jun frowned. "Then he can't be an apostle of the Empire?"

"You can say that." Elder Yuan nodded. "Not only him, but the entire northern province is the territory of the polluters. According to incomplete statistics, there are at least hundreds of polluters loyal to him... Among the many alien worlds, the polluters of the [Empire] can be said to be the most organized and disciplined group."

“Indeed…” Luo Jun nodded: “He is originally a metamorphosis, no wonder he can stabilize his power in the alien world… Even if the Church wants to deal with him, it won’t be easy… Wait!”

Luo Jun suddenly reacted to a question: "Since he is a metamorphosis, how did he become a polluter?"

As far as Luo Jun knew, there were also many apostles at the ephemeral level in other worlds, but they were all polluted before becoming ephemeral. Because once they entered ephemeral stage, their life had reached a higher level. Not to mention immunity, at least their resistance to pollution was many times stronger than that of ordinary practitioners. Especially in a world like [Empire] where the pollution intensity was not too high, it would be difficult for an ephemeral to be polluted.

"I understand your doubts." Elder Yuan nodded. "Osman did not become a polluter because he was accidentally stranded in the Empire. He publicly announced his break with the Church and took the initiative to go to the Empire and announced that he had become a polluter. But to be honest, it is still unknown whether he has been polluted. Many people believe that with his cultivation, he is not strong enough to be corroded by the intensity of the pollution of the Empire. He is probably still a human now."

"Take the initiative to break with the Church?" Luo Jun was even more confused after hearing this: "Why? Not only did he give up his hometown, but he even stopped being a human being?"

“I don’t know…” Elder Yuan shook his head. “The reason why Osman defected is still a top secret of the Vatican. Most people don’t know about this person now. Even if they had heard of him in the past, they didn’t know about his defection. They just thought he had passed away.”

"Even I only know that he had a disagreement with Pope Saint Nicholas and they had a battle on an isolated island in the icy sea. No one knows the result of that battle. All we know is that the island was completely wiped off the map. After that, Osman ran to the [Empire] area and declared his allegiance to the Emperor of the Glorious Empire. He was eventually granted the title of Northern Border and became the Grand Duke of the Northern Province."

"Is there such a story?" Luo Jun frowned.

"So, now that the Lord of Fate has suddenly found this [Empire] apostle, who knows what conspiracy they have. It is very likely to be detrimental to the main world. I cannot just stand by and watch."

Luo Jun touched his chin and analyzed: "Desdonie also said that she saw the intersection of fate in you and brought you here to find Grand Duke Osman... This means that their plan may be related to you, right?"

"Then I can't leave!" Yuan Lao nodded, then was stunned: "How do you know this? Who told you?"

"He told me." Luo Jun laughed, opened the smart equipment bag, and took out the half-crippled Space-Time Demon King.

"Dampes?" Seeing Dampes, who no longer looked like a human, Boss Yuan was horrified and looked at Luo Jun: "Did you do this?"

"Otherwise, I'm afraid he won't behave himself..." Luo Jun said with a smile. He looked down and saw that Dampes was breathing heavily. Obviously, even the Demon King would not feel comfortable being locked in a vacuum equipment bag.

"Yuan Shouzhen?" Dampes looked at Luo Jun in surprise: "How did you find him?"

"I have my own way!" Luo Jun laughed. At this time, Yuan Lao suddenly frowned: "Oh no! Put him back quickly!"

"Ah?" Before Luo Jun could say anything, Dampes was the first to say, "Come again?!" Before he could object, Luo Jun had already stuffed him back into his equipment bag. "What's wrong, Master?"

"Dampes is a demon king after all!" said Yuan Lao. "When a Feathered Being enters a certain world, it will inevitably attract the attention of other Feathered Beings in that world!"

"Ah?" Luo Jun was stunned: "He is already like this, and his vitality is almost exhausted. Can he still have such a great influence?"

“It has nothing to do with the state.” Old Yuan shook his head and said, “The existence of the Feathered Level itself will have an impact on the world. It can be said that the moment you brought it into this world, Osman and Desdonie had already noticed it. When you took it out here just now, they must have known that he was coming!”

"What about me?" Luo Jun frowned and asked, "I am also considered to have achieved immortality now, right?"

"You should be fine." Old Yuan shook his head and said, "Saints and immortals are on two different paths. Focusing on cultivating one's own strength has almost no impact on the elements of heaven and earth. At least when you entered [Hell], Desdonie and Dampes didn't notice it."

As he spoke, Yuan Lao took out his Bagua Brass Knuckles: "Dampes suddenly appeared here, they will definitely come to see the situation and prepare to fight..."

"Fight the enemy..." Luo Jun frowned, suddenly picked up the Wand of the Gate of All Worlds, and drew a portal when Mr. Yuan was not prepared.

"Why...didn't I say I would stay and investigate their conspiracy?" Yuan Lao said anxiously, "Now is not the time to run away."

"I know..." Luo Jun laughed, suddenly grabbed Yuan Lao and threw him into the portal.

"Luo Jun, you..." Old Yuan was startled and realized what his disciple was going to do. He was about to go back, but was pushed back by Luo Jun: "Don't worry, Master, leave the investigation to me!" As he said that, he waved his hand and directly closed the Gate to All Worlds.

"Next." After seeing off Old Yuan, Luo Jun frowned slightly, raised his hand and took out the fake human mask, and then released Dampes.

"Huha..." The Space-Time Demon King took a breath of fresh air as he came out: "What are you planning to do..."

Before he could finish his words, Luo Jun had already put the fake human mask on him. After completing the appearance scan, he took it off and stuffed it back into the smart equipment bag.

Next, Luo Jun put on the fake human mask and transformed himself into the appearance of Dampes, sitting in the cell and waiting quietly.

Sure enough, after a while, the door of the cell was opened and the charming and beautiful Desdonie stood outside the door.

"Dampes? You defeated Frame?" Desdonie raised her eyebrows and looked at the empty cell except for Luo Jun: "Where's Yuan Shouzhen?"

"I sent him somewhere else." Luo Jun snorted coldly, "Don't forget, you're not the only one who wants to ask him something! I won't tell you where he is until I get the information I want."

"How could I forget?" The Lord of Destiny chuckled, "I came here to achieve our goal."

"Then you'd better explain it to me clearly." Dampes snorted.

"Okay, come with me." Desdonie turned around and said, "I'll introduce a new friend to you."

Luo Jun followed Desdonie out of the cell. On the way, the King of Destiny looked back at him.

"What's wrong?" Luo Jun asked.

"Nothing, I just feel that you hide your presence very well." Desdonie smiled and said, "Except for the moment when I entered this world and was teleported here, I could hardly feel your presence. In hell, you are not so low-key."

"After all, this is not hell." Luo Jun found an excuse: "I'm not here to fight. There's no point in making a random demonstration!"

"That makes sense." Desdonie nodded and continued to lead the way.

The two men walked out of the cell and finally came to the lord's hall. Luo Jun saw from afar that sitting on the lord's throne was a tall middle-aged man with blond hair and a golden beard.

I guess this person is the Grand Duke Osman that Master mentioned. He used to be a paladin, so he should be a militant person.

The Wudou Sect's Yuhua? After Luo Jun became a saint, he hadn't fought against the Wudou Sect. To deal with Yuhua with other abilities, they all rely on unexpectedly closing the distance and attacking the main body. The Wudou Sect is not afraid of close combat, so I don't know if I can handle it head-on.

"Is this the Demon King of Time and Space you mentioned?" Grand Duke Osman raised his hand and said, "I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person. Please take a seat!"

The servant at the side brought a chair and placed it behind Luo Jun, but Luo Jun did not sit down: "Desdonie, is this your new friend?"

Desdonie nodded and said, "Let me introduce you. This is Grand Duke Osman from the northern border of the Glory Empire. He is also a super strong man who can rival the Demon King."

"Not inferior to the Demon King?" Luo Jun imitated Dampes' tone: "How dare a weak human compare with the demons?"

After hearing this, Desdonie looked at Osman with some concern, and the latter laughed: "It's understandable that the Space-Time Demon King doubts my strength since we're meeting for the first time."

As he spoke, Osman looked at Luo Jun and his eyes suddenly widened!
At the same time, Luo Jun felt a strong sense of crisis, and almost instinctively, he took a step back to avoid the opponent's attack.

what is that?
Luo Jun frowned slightly. It was not vitality, nor was it some skill, nor was it a mental attack. It was just pure momentum!

Is it murderous intent?
Luo Jun was a veteran of many battles and had faced all kinds of murderous intent, but no one had ever emitted such murderous intent as that of the Ottoman Grand Duke, which seemed like a real attack and made people feel so dangerous and uneasy.

Luo Jun frowned. The guy in front of him was very strong! Stronger than any opponent he had faced since he became a saint!
