Chapter 10 - I
Lao Luo presented Wu Xiao’s treasure book in a flattering manner, “Your Majesty, I have checked the contents, and it is indeed a reference—”
Xie Zuo casually grabbed the dark purple leather-bound booklet and flipped through it. After a few pages, his expression became more focused. “…Indeed, why didn’t I think of it before? Where did the broken octopus go? Bring it to me.”
“Here it is, over here!” Wu Xiao had already invited himself when he heard Xie Zuo looking for him, so he hurriedly got his head out of the ground.
Lao Luo flew to Xie Zuo’s ear, read the contents of the booklet with him, and sighed: “Your Majesty, these cultivation methods are really exquisite, and they can be applied to humans, deities, demons, and ghosts. Wu Xiao is full of evil, and the calamity he has experienced the number of times is much more than other deities, but he can escape from the heavenly tribulations from time to time. Here is the reason—”
Wu Xiao raised his head arrogantly, “I am not afraid of any heavenly tribulations and punishments. As long as I am still alive… If I haven’t lived enough, no one can kill me!”
“Oh?” Xie Zuo closed the book, “Heavenly Tribulation can’t kill you, but Huo Yao can kill you. Does that mean Huo Yao is more powerful than Heavenly Tribulation?”
Wu Xiao became angry in embarrassment, “You ungrateful little bastard, I’m so kind to help you, but you dare to humiliate me!”
“Speaking of which, what is your purpose?”
Wu Xiao’s little eyes were fixed on Xie Zuo, “I see that you hate Huo Yao very much, I want to join forces with you to kill him. Don’t you want to get out of here as soon as possible?”
Recalling the beauty of the human world that he had glimpsed before, Xie Zuo nodded: “Of course.”
“That’s it!” Wu Xiao excitedly clapped his tentacles, “I will help you improve your demon power. When you make a breakthrough, remember to take me with you when you go out. Your Majesty!”
“Deal.”
.
In the next few days, except when he was being tortured, Xie Zuo stayed behind closed doors and practiced diligently according to Wu Xiao’s secret method, storing the overflowing demon power in the demon core to nourish the demon core every day. The speed of increasing demonic power had indeed been greatly accelerated.
Wu Xiao followed Xie Zuo, firstly to protect him and secondly to reward himself by stealing some of the demonic power that overflowed from him from time to time. The more he observed him, the more doubtful he became.
Although Xie Zuo only looked like a teenager now, his outline was already fifty percent similar to of Heavenly Father. Especially when he closed his eyes and meditated, his face was full of divinity and holiness. His temperament and appearance were almost like the teenage version of Heavenly Father.
After all, Wu Xiao was a great deity who was born in the ocean when the world was first created. He had lived for countless thousands of years. Although he had a rough and careless temperament, he was not a fool.
This little demon king drank Huo Yao’s blood, but he could advance with the help of divine blood. He must be the flesh and blood of a certain deity.
Wu Xiao couldn’t believe it. If Xie Zuo was really the son of Heavenly Father and the previous Demon King Xie Xiao, Heavenly Father would be too… strong!
Could it be Tiandi were angered by Heavenly Father’s cowardice with monsters, so they took back Heavenly Father and re-naturalized him from the spiritual state of Taixu?
The more Wu Xiao became suspicious, the more he felt that Xie Zuo resembled Heavenly Father, especially the mischievous energy about him.
.
Back then, Wu Xiao was still a king making waves in the ocean. When he met the Heavenly Father who traveled around the six realms, he saw that he was handsome and kind-faced, so he thought he was weak and could be bullied.
He wanted to play with him and then eat him, but it was Wu Xiao himself who was being toyed with.
After Wu Xiao was shrunk by the Heavenly Father, he was strung up on a bamboo pole and paraded on the seabed. He was then set on fire and roasted. Several thick layers of condiments were poured on his head and face, and the fragrance spread for ten miles.
Wu Xiao was humiliated, but because of this, he completely obeyed the Heavenly Father and was willing to be restrained by him, walking and experiencing the six realms with him.
Wu Xiao had a very open-minded temperament, while Heavenly Father was informal, unrestrained, and romantic. The two have the same temperament and get along very happily. Who knew that Huo Yao will come later.
Wu Xiao didn’t like this kid at first sight, and their subsequent interactions only deepened this dislike, which later developed into hatred. But the Heavenly Father valued him very much, which made Wu Xiao feel jealous.
Huo Yao had no heart and only followed the direction of Tiandi. If it weren’t for him, Tiandi would not take back Heavenly Father.
This murderer first killed the father and then his own brother, why hadn’t he been punished by Tiandi?
Thinking of Huo Yao, Wu Xiao was filled with anger. This hypocritical and ruthless scum was so powerful and invincible.
If Xie Zuo was really the blood of the Heavenly Father, he would never let Huo Yao got his hands on him!
.
Just when Xie Zuo and Wu Xiao were having a heated fight, Huo Yao also discovered their unusual relationship. So, on one dark and windy night, when Lao Luo was going out for a convenience, he was abducted by a bolt of lightning.
Looking at the tall and mighty Great Thunder Deity in the blood mist, Lao Luo’s entire body trembled like chaff, “Big, Great Thunder Deity! Do you have a problem? Do you need help?”
Huo Yao’s golden eyes were in the blood mist, looking particularly bright and sharp, “What are they plotting?”
Lao Luo was only loyal for a second, and just said “Nothing”, looking up at Huo Yao’s cold expression, he immediately shouted, “I’ll do it, I can tell anything, don’t attack me!”
After hearing Lao Luo’s confession, Huo Yao sneered, “I thought Wu Xiao’s mind was full of shit, but I didn’t expect to see some clues.”
Huo Yao let go of him and stood with his hands behind his back, “You are the second volume of the Book of Heaven, and you know everything in the six realms. Watch your tongue.”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
