293: wake up

"Old Headmaster, whether you can survive depends entirely on yourself."

Boom~~

Samadhi True Fire overflowed from his hand, enveloping the blue primal divine light. The lightning contained within immediately trembled.

"It's best to behave, or you won't like the consequences." Xiao Weiqing threatened.

Just like that.

Xiao Weiqing used his Divine Soul Power to guide the primal divine light into the center of Xie Zhiyuan's brow.

He could only treat a dead horse as if it were alive.

The moment the primal divine light entered the center of Xie Zhiyuan's brow, Xie Zhiyuan's Mental Energy completely vanished.

Next.

Xiao Weiqing didn't dare to overthink it, picking up Xie Zhiyuan and fleeing far away.

He had just successfully ambushed and killed a Centaur Demon Venerable, so he believed the remaining three Demon Venerables would quickly react and might already be on their way to pursue him.

In fact, this was true.

However, the development of events was not what Xiao Weiqing had expected.

The three Demon Venerables gathered.

"Blue Fox, did you find anything?"

"Did a Human Race Demigod make a move?"

Blue Fox Demon Venerable nodded, "It was the aura of a Blue Star Person, but..."

"But what?"

"This person likely doesn't have the strength of a Demigod. I even suspect they aren't even in the Eighth Realm."

"What?"

Blue Fox explained: "Currently, among the entrances connected to Blue Star, only the entrance belonging to the Centaur Clan allows Demon Venerables to pass through stably. Demigod-level experts cannot pass.

Furthermore, if it truly were a Human Race Demigod expert, how could we have possibly escaped with our lives?"

Another Centaur Demon Venerable asked, "Then why did we only discover him when he made his move, and why did he kill Ninth Brother in a single strike?"

Blue Fox said, "Divine Soul Attack. A very powerful Divine Soul Attack, coupled with the element of surprise, directly wiped out your Ninth Brother's Divine Soul."

"As for why we only discovered him when he attacked, this person must possess a great treasure capable of concealing aura, or their Divine Soul Power is so immense that even I couldn't detect it."

"But that situation is impossible. Even an Eighth Realm Expert with extremely powerful Divine Soul couldn't achieve a level where I couldn't detect them at all," Blue Fox asserted.

When she wounded Xie Zhiyuan previously, she relied on her powerful Divine Soul Power—this was the confidence of their Fox Race.

"So there is only one possibility: this person possesses a great treasure, or even a Divine Weapon."

"A Divine Weapon?!"

The Centaur Demon Venerable gasped, a look of greed flashing in his eyes.

Sheep Demon Venerable nodded slightly. "Blue Fox's analysis makes sense. Only this explains why he can easily kill a Demon Venerable yet dares not show his face."

Blue Fox and Sheep Demon Venerable exchanged glances, then Blue Fox added, "But this person's methods are unpredictable. The three of us cannot deal with him; we might even be defeated one by one."

"That's right."

Sheep Demon Venerable agreed, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Wu Kui, you return to the clan first and inform Demigod Wutu about this matter. We need to trouble him to act to ensure nothing goes wrong."

The Centaur Demon Venerable thought about it and nodded, "Fine, but the Divine Weapon belongs to my Centaur Clan."

"Of course," said Sheep Demon Venerable.

Blue Fox Demon Venerable also had no objection.

"Good, you wait here." Wu Kui turned and flew rapidly toward the clan territory.

After Wu Kui left.

Blue Fox Demon Venerable said, "I'm leaving. This matter ends here. I intervened twice, and now we are even."

Blue Fox Demon Venerable quickly departed without any hesitation. This matter was too strange; she didn't want to end up dead without knowing how.

Sheep Demon Venerable frowned. "It seems we can only find a way to make Demigod Wutu take action."

At the same time.

Xiao Weiqing flew low in the opposite direction, covering hundreds of kilometers before finding a valley to hide in... a dark cave.

Deep inside, a figure lay on the ground, with a large pit beside him.

Step~ Step~~

Xiao Weiqing dragged the corpse of a Great Demon King into the cave, refined its blood using Samadhi True Fire, forming a blood essence bead the size of a fingertip.

"Old Headmaster, time to eat."

Xiao Weiqing forced Xie Zhiyuan's mouth open and fed the blood bead inside.

This situation had lasted for a month. Xiao Weiqing could only find ways to ensure Xie Zhiyuan's Divine Body didn't collapse.

As the saying goes: solitary Yang cannot generate, solitary Yin cannot exist.

If Xie Zhiyuan's body hadn't still been warm, Xiao Weiqing would have really prepared to bury him and find a chance to return to Blue Star, seeing as he had already dug the grave.

"Old Headmaster, I've pretty much slaughtered all the lone Great Demon Kings nearby. This place is almost a restricted zone. Tomorrow, I plan to try my luck further away. If I get a chance to kill a Demon Venerable, I'll feed you something good."

As he spoke.

Xiao Weiqing let out a deep sigh.

According to Demigod Kolen, this primal divine light was left behind by a Human Race Star Lord. Given the Old Headmaster's Eighth Realm Peak Mental Energy, refining this primal divine light shouldn't take this long.

Back then, that stupid ox only took two months to show improvement.

Thinking of this.

Xiao Weiqing felt increasingly distressed. Not only had he failed to save the Old Headmaster, but he had also lost a portion of the primal divine light.

If he brought the primal divine light back to Blue Star and gave it to Ning Xing, he believed Ning Xing would soon achieve a Breakthrough to the Ninth Realm, and perhaps even become a Star Lord in the future.

Although saying this sounded cruel, after all, the Old Headmaster had saved his life. But seeing the Old Headmaster looking like a living dead person made him feel like he had suffered a double loss and was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

"Old Headmaster, how exactly are you doing? At least make a sound."

"If you don't wake up, I might just refine you with True Fire to retrieve the primal divine light. You wouldn't blame me, right?"

"What do you think?"

A weak voice sounded in Xiao Weiqing's mind, carrying a hint of resentment, relief, and the feeling of surviving a great calamity.

"Hmm?"

Xiao Weiqing was startled, followed immediately by great joy. "Old Headmaster?"

"You succeeded?"

"No."

Xiao Weiqing's heart sank. "Then are you going to die?"

Xie Zhiyuan: "..."

"Can't you wish for something good?"

Xiao Weiqing gave a wry smile, "Old Headmaster, I wish I could, but in your current state, can you even move?"

One must know that even Xiao Weiqing hadn't suffered such severe injuries back then.

Xie Zhiyuan irritably said, "Lower your head."

"Lower my head?"

Xiao Weiqing was confused and lowered his head, only to see Xie Zhiyuan's curled right fist laboriously extend a middle finger.

"..."

Xiao Weiqing's face instantly darkened. *Don't get angry, don't get angry, especially since you're about to die.*

Next, Xie Zhiyuan continued:

"Sigh, you should leave."

"Go back to Blue Star and tell Ning Xing that this isn't your fault. It's not that you refused to save me; it's just that I have bad luck."

"..."

Xiao Weiqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Old Headmaster, when did I say I wouldn't save you? If I weren't going to save you, I would have left long ago."

"I even gave you a portion of the primal divine light. Can you refine it?"

Xie Zhiyuan replied, "Not yet. The primal divine light can only maintain my last shred of consciousness from dissipating. My Sea of Consciousness is damaged, and my Mental Energy is too chaotic to refine the primal divine light."

"Then what should I do?"
