The only player in the world of Shrouding the Heavens

Even long after Su Zhe left, the Peacock King still couldn't suppress his emotions and cursed loudly on the spot.

"Honghu! Tell me! How can anyone be so despicable and shameless! How dare someone even have designs on our princess!"

The Peacock King was so angry that he jumped up and down, unable to suppress his emotions.

"Master, I think you might have too much of a problem with Young Master Su..."

Honghu spoke cautiously.

Before he could finish speaking, the Peacock King turned around in shock to look at his beloved disciple.

"What did you say?" The Peacock King asked, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"I don't think Young Master Su is that bad. At least he's brave and resourceful..."

"Honghu said in a low voice."

The Peacock King thought to himself, "Oh no!"

He reached out and touched his beloved student's forehead to make sure that his student did not have a fever.

"He's not sick..." the Peacock King muttered to himself, then circled the swan a few times, growing more and more worried with each turn.

"Alright, you should go back to the Northern Region first. Focus on your cultivation during this time, and don't come out unless there's something else going on..."

The Peacock King spoke, having already made arrangements for Honghu's future.

"Master..." Honghu wanted to argue, but was stopped by the Peacock King waving his hand.

The Peacock King even went to great lengths to personally activate the domain gate and send the swan back.

He didn't even dare to wait to borrow a domain gate from other regions!

Only after watching the swan leave did the Peacock King breathe a sigh of relief.

"My disciple, it's not that I'm deliberately targeting you, it's just that Su Zhe is too shameless. You won't gain anything by following him..."

The Peacock King shook his head and sighed softly.

From the first time he met Su Zhe, he keenly sensed that this person was no ordinary person.

Even when facing a large audience, the other party showed no fear, always displaying an indomitable spirit, as if never worried about falling.

If such a person has a straightforward personality, they are bound to achieve great things in the future, and it is not impossible for them to become a local hero or even a local sage.

But it's precisely this guy, Su Zhe, who has almost no bottom line when it comes to his actions!

This kind of person is not someone that ordinary people can handle.

Looking at the entire demon race, probably only that demon princess could go head-to-head with her in terms of both cunning and methods.

As for the swan...

The Peacock King knew his disciple all too well. Although his cultivation was profound, comparable to the best of the younger generation, he was able to go toe-to-toe with the holy sons of those ancient aristocratic families.

However, his cultivation level was only high; in terms of mind, Honghu was too naive.

"Ugh! What a scoundrel!"

The Peacock King sighed and spoke.

Fortunately, that scoundrel did not stay in the demon race, but went to Huo Huo Ji's house.

This is also why the Peacock King was willing to let Ji Haoyue go back.

Although he really wanted to kill this Ji family divine body on the spot, so that the Ji family would lose a pillar in the future, it seemed more interesting to give the Ji family another troublemaker who could hold a high position.

"Forget it, if he ever dares to approach my apprentice again, I'll stab him to death myself!"

The Peacock King secretly made up his mind.

the other side.

Ji Haoyue barely escaped, only to be surrounded by a small group of demons. Fortunately, as a divine body of the Eastern Wilderness, he was still able to fight even though he was seriously injured.

After going through countless hardships, he finally escaped the encirclement completely.

Next, as long as he summons the powerful members of the Ji family, he will be completely safe.

"I wonder how that person named Dong Xuelian is doing..."

Ji Haoyue turned around and glanced back.

Behind him lay endless, desolate mountains, which nearly buried him. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of that hero named Dong Xuelian, the legend of the Eastern Wilderness Divine Body would have ended before it even began.

Just as Ji Haoyue was feeling downcast, she suddenly heard a voice.

"Brother, stop looking, help... help..."

The voice was very weak, sounding like someone was about to die.

Ji Haoyue quickly looked in the direction of the sound and saw Dong Xuelian, who was seriously injured and dying, crawling on the ground.

"It's you! You're still alive!" Ji Haoyue exclaimed excitedly, stepping forward to help Su Zhe up.

"I'm incredibly lucky. If it weren't for the sudden outburst of a powerful figure from the Ji family that attracted that madman's attention, I might not be able to get out today..."

Su Zhe spoke weakly.

He had several hideous wounds on his body, each one exuding the aura of a demon.

As someone who had fully cultivated the Demon Emperor's Scripture, he naturally knew how to disguise his wounds so that they would appear completely natural and without any flaws.

At this moment, although the wounds on his body were all self-inflicted, they looked as if he had been injured in a major battle.

"Great power...when I grow stronger in the future, I will definitely seek revenge against the demon race!"

Upon hearing of the sudden outburst from the powerful being, Ji Haoyue's expression darkened for a moment.

He was well aware that if a powerful being were to truly erupt, it would mean that the great battle was nearing its end.

A powerful being who wants to fight to the death, whether to escape or to buy time, must unleash a powerful burst of energy.

"It's alright, you're still alive. My mission is complete. I'll take you back to the Ji family..."

Su Zhe forced a smile and struggled to lead Ji Haoyue forward.

"No! I'll take you home!"

Ji Haoyue said seriously.

Ignoring the numerous wounds and bloodstains on Su Zhe's body, he carried Su Zhe directly on his back.

As the sun set, the renowned Eastern Wilderness Divine Body carried a critically injured and dying young man step by step toward the Ji family.

In the shadows, the Peacock King watched this scene with a vengeance that seethed with fury.

"You beast!"

"You scum!"

"You sold them out and then tricked them into counting the money for you!"

"The Ji family's divine body is also insane!"

"If I'd known he was this stupid, why would I have killed him! I could only feel at ease entrusting the Ji family to someone like that!"

Peacock King cursed under his breath as he watched Ji Haoyue carry Su Zhe back to the Ji family home.

The journey was not without its hardships and dangers, but the Peacock King managed to overcome most of them.

Some powerful demons were ready to kill the Ji family's divine body, but they were stopped by the Peacock King.

And so, Ji Haoyue brought the "severely injured and dying" Su Zhe back to the Ji family.

Seeing the Ji family's gate in the distance, Ji Haoyue finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Zhe also finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The mission is finally complete!

And it even completes two tasks at once!

Whether it's the cultivation reward that allows him to catch up with the younger generation, or the reputation reward within the Ji family, these are both things he urgently needs.

Even from a great distance, Su Zhe couldn't contain his excitement and roared at the Ji family's gate.

"I, Dong Xuelian, have brought back the Ji family's divine body!"

In a corner, Ji Hui, who was waiting for good news, was taken aback.

Who the hell is back?
