The only player in the world of Shrouding the Heavens

After leaving the valley, Su Zhe looked back.

He originally had seventy or eighty people under his command, which was considered a large number among the teams dispatched by the Ji family.

But now, he only has a lot of people left under his command.

Moreover, they were all old, weak, sick, or disabled; the only cultivators in the Dao Palace Secret Realm were himself and that old man...

"Alas! It's all Duan De's fault!"

Su Zhe couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes! It's all Duan De's fault!"

Old Deng was the first to chime in.

The surrounding teammates echoed their agreement.

Seeing all the flattering voices, Su Zhe felt a sense of satisfaction.

With this bunch of lackeys, how could I not become the villain?

"Well done! Let's go! Let's continue searching for the eldest young master!"

Su Zhe waved his hand and spoke.

However, before he could finish speaking, a sinister voice suddenly came from beside him.

"Hehe, don't bother looking, your young master will be here soon..."

Upon hearing this voice, everyone frowned, and Su Zhe felt a chill run down his spine, as if a block of ice had been pressed against him.

The next moment, a rift was torn open in the void, and a young man appeared in front of Su Zhe.

The young man looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth, wearing a blue robe, and his smile was harmless.

Su Zhe's eyebrows twitched violently, and without any hesitation, he knelt down.

"Lord Peacock King! You've finally come to my rescue!"

Su Zhe spoke with tears streaming down his face, his voice filled with genuine emotion.

This huge change shocked the group of younger brothers behind him.

"Big brother! What did you say?"

"The Peacock King? Who is that great figure? Why have I never heard of him?"

"It seems to be a powerful demon..."

Behind Su Zhe, a group of Ji family members discussed in hushed tones, filled with shock.

Su Zhe was glad he had knelt down early enough.

The Peacock King chuckled, raised his hand, and threw out a ball of light. It landed on the ground and transformed into a curtain of light, completely enveloping the area and isolating it from the outside world, making it almost a world of its own.

Do you know me?

The Peacock King looked at Su Zhe with a smile and asked.

"I am Su Zhe! Princess Yan Ruyu must have mentioned me; I'm the one I said could capture the Ancient Sacred Body and use it as a vessel!"

Su Zhe spoke without changing his expression.

Even though his younger brother from the Ji family was right behind him, Su Zhe didn't blush or skip a beat when talking about these things.

"Oh, so you are a distinguished guest of my demon race. Her Highness the princess mentioned you and told me that if I ever encounter you, I must protect you."

The Peacock King spoke with a smile.

Although he didn't know what it was about this guy's cowardly behavior that made the princess value him so much, he still glanced at Su Zhe a few more times.

"Yes! It's me!" Su Zhe breathed a sigh of relief.

While you can revive in the game, you can't just think about reviving every time something happens; the story needs to move forward!

"But why do you associate with powerful figures from the Ji family?"

The Peacock King suddenly spoke up and asked.

"What the hell?" Su Zhe was taken aback.

"Hahaha! What a clever Peacock King! I knew I couldn't hide it from you!"

Old Deng suddenly burst into laughter, took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared into the void.

The next moment, a dark figure appeared behind Su Zhe.

A strong killing intent emerged, almost threatening to kill Su Zhe from afar.

Fortunately, the Peacock King was not just a bystander; he intervened, sending out a beam of celestial light to block the attack for Su Zhe.

Su Zhe was still shaken and quickly turned his head, only to see Old Deng's cold and deep gaze.

"hiss……"

Su Zhe gasped.

Good guy!

The person he trusted most turned out to be a spy sent by the Ji family!

He was a great man!

Identification Technique! Activate!

Ji Ming: A cultivator from the Ji family, at the second level of the Sendai realm.

Not the true form, but a wisp of divine thought.

The description is very simple.

"Brother Peacock King! Quickly, kill it!"

Su Zhe leaped up and landed directly behind the Peacock King, patting his chest with lingering fear.

I've been traveling with a powerful figure for so long, and I was just chatting with the eldest daughter of a branch of the Ji family for several days not far away...

This is utterly reckless!

"Boy! I saw through your cunning and wicked ways long ago! I never imagined you were so deeply involved with the demon race! If I had known this, I should have slapped you to death when that little girl Ji Biyue was cultivating with you!"

Old Deng, also known as Ji Ming, shouted loudly, his voice filled with resentment.

"You brat, you're on good terms with the princess, and you even dare to sleep with someone from the Ji family?"

The Peacock King looked at Su Zhe with a smile, his eyes full of an elder's appreciation for a younger generation.

"Brother, stop joking! Kill him!"

Su Zhe was on the verge of tears. What kind of time is this to be talking about these things?

He had painstakingly progressed to this point, but if the Ji family found out his true identity, he would probably have to start over and open a new world for Ji Biyue again...

"Don't worry! I finally found that old man Ji's spiritual clone, how could I let him escape? I've already set up a great formation here! Even if he dies here today, let alone transmit a message, the Ji family won't be able to deduce anything!"

The Peacock King spoke, his voice possessing an absolute allure.

Hearing Peacock King's words, Su Zhe finally felt relieved.

However, looking at the group of sycophants in shock before him, Su Zhe still couldn't bear it.

These are all lackeys I painstakingly trained!

They've learned to bully the weak and fear the strong, to be two-faced and hypocritical, to say one thing to someone's face and stab them in the back...

"Captain!" someone tried to speak.

Su Zhe immediately waved his hand to interrupt.

The Peacock King looked at Su Zhe with great interest, wanting to see how Su Zhe would deal with these people.

"These people are all my brothers, my beloved family and friends..."

Su Zhe said with great distress.

"Oh?" King Peacock raised an eyebrow slightly.

If this guy has a soft heart, he wouldn't mind helping him out.

"So I'll do it myself, that way they'll die peacefully."

Su Zhe said.

These are all experience points and fragments of the Void Scripture!

Amidst the shocked or terrified gazes of the crowd, Su Zhe tearfully saw them off.

The caring and warm team has finally turned into cold, hard experience and fragments of the Void Scripture.

"Excellent! Excellent! Dong Xuelian, you are truly a rare find!"

Ji Mingqi gritted her teeth.

He'd lived his whole life, and yet he'd been fooled by a mere brat at the Dao Palace realm!

This is simply an utter disgrace!

"What should we do with this old fellow?" the Peacock King asked with a smile.

He was very satisfied with Su Zhe's solution.

How can someone who aspires to great things be confined to a group of lackeys?

"He is, after all, an elder of the Ji family. We should kill him, Peacock King. Don't waste the fragments of his divine sense. Collect them and infuse them with the resentment of courtesans. When we catch his true form, we can experience it together."

Su Zhe sighed and said with a compassionate tone.

The moment the words left his mouth, Ji Ming's divine sense clone went berserk, shouting, "Dong Xuelian! I...!"

Su Zhe covered his face with his hand and sighed, "The Ji family has no one else to rely on, so please forgive me for not being able to return to the demon clan with my elder brother for the time being."

Upon hearing Su Zhe's words, Ji Ming's berserk divine sense quieted down for a moment.

The next moment, Ji Ming's divine sense went completely mad, "Quick! Take this brat away! Let him return to the demon race!"

"Never mind," Su Zhe waved his hand, "There are still people in the Ji family waiting for me. Tell Yan Ruyu for me that I miss her very much while I'm at the Ji family home..."
