Martial Sovereign of Myriad Realms

Wang Lanxin smiled when she heard this. She looked deeply at Gu Quan and said, “If I tell you that there is a way to revive your master, will you help me?”    

“What?!”    

Gu Quan’s expression changed. He was pleasantly surprised at first, but then he felt that something was amiss. His master had been seriously injured when he was fighting with others, and when he was in closed-door cultivation to recover, his soul was affected by the heart demon, and he died.    

This kind of death was definitely impossible to revive. Even if Wang Lanxin had kept his master’s corpse and used the Extreme Cold Profound Ice to preserve his body, it was still useless.    

Therefore, Wang Lanxin saying that she wanted to revive her master at this moment was a matter with many suspicious points.    

“Could it be…”    

Gu Quan’s expression was ugly. He looked at Wang Lanxin and said, “Master, you are…”    

“What? You don’t want to?”    

Wang Lanxin’s expression sank as she asked coldly.    

Gu Quan couldn’t help but feel his heart sink when he saw the coldness in Wang Lanxin’s eyes. He shook his head helplessly and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to, but I just want to know what you need me to do.”    

“Hehe, I need you to help me do one thing. I want to join hands with you to kill Lei Sheng!”    

Wang Lanxin’s expression was a little distorted, and her eyes surged with killing intent. “Gu Quan, do you know that the mastermind behind your master’s death was Lei Sheng!”    

Hearing this, Gu Quan's expression became even more unsightly. It was indeed strange that his master had fallen back then. After all, his master was a Stage Six Martial Spirit expert, and he had to face off against a Stage Five Martial Spirit expert from the outer domain. In the end, both of them were injured, and he had even been affected by his inner demon and died.    

Whether it was the battle with the outer domain expert that resulted in both of them being injured or the inner demon, this was something that should not have happened. This was because his master's most powerful aspect was his mental fortitude, which was extremely firm.    

Thus, Gu Quan also had some doubts about his master's death. However, he had thought that it was Lei Sheng's doing.    

Because Lei Sheng was his master's disciple and Gu Quan's master, the current sect master of the Limitless Sect. Now that he heard Wang Lanxin's words, Gu Quan carefully recalled that when his master had fallen back then, his master, Lei Sheng, had indeed disappeared for a period of time.    

At the same time, his master had been the sect master of the Limitless Sect when he was very young. To take the position of sect master, he would need at least a few hundred years. After his master died, the person who benefited the most was his master, Lei Sheng, and he naturally became the sect master.    

Gu Quan had some guesses at this moment. What Wang Lanxin said might be true, but it was precisely because of this that he was at a loss. Whether it was his master or his master, they were the most important people to him. The situation in front of him was something he could not accept.    

"Lei Sheng was ambitious. In order to become the sect master, he colluded with the forces of the outer domain and secretly harmed your master. That was why he became the sect master."    

“All these years, Lei Sheng has provided the foreign forces with an endless amount of wealth, and they have been able to obtain countless heavenly treasures. In just a few hundred years, he has advanced from the second stage of the Martial Spirit Realm to the fifth stage.”    

Seeing Gu Quan’s hesitation, Wang Lanxin spoke with a harsh tone, “Otherwise, with his talent, how could he have advanced so quickly? Even you can’t catch up to him?”    

“This…”    

Gu Quan looked up at Wang Lanxin hesitantly. He felt that what Wang Lanxin said was the truth, but he still hoped that he would investigate it. If his master, Lei Sheng, was really a person who bullied his master and killed his ancestors, he would also help Wang Lanxin avenge her master and take revenge for her master.    

Suddenly, Gu Quan thought of something. Even if Lei Sheng bullied his master and killed his ancestors, it didn’t seem to be necessary for his master to be revived and kill Lei Sheng. If he was worried that Lei Sheng would discover this, he only needed to act in secret. Why would he do this?    

“Gu Quan, what are you hesitating for? Are you unwilling to avenge your master and want to follow this villain, Lei Sheng, to help him?”    

Seeing that Gu Quan didn’t react, Wang Lanxin immediately questioned him.    

“It’s not like that. I am…”    

Gu Quan hurriedly explained. Seeing Wang Lanxin’s cold gaze, he couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart. For some reason, he felt that his mistress had changed. She had become very crazy, and she was no longer as gentle as water. Even if her mistress was eager to avenge her master, she shouldn’t have changed so much and become so thorough.    

"Mother, I want to know, what does killing Lei Sheng have to do with reviving Master?"    

Gu Quan immediately asked his own question. He felt that Wang Lanxin's personality had changed greatly, and it might be related to this.    

"Gu Quan!"    

Unexpectedly, when Wang Lanxin heard what Gu Quan said, she was immediately enraged. She stared at Gu Quan and said, "To revive your Master, of course, I have to kill Gu Quan. He is the main culprit who caused your Master's death, so I have to sacrifice his soul in exchange for your Master!"    

The moment she said this, Gu Quan's expression changed greatly. Sacrificing a soul was a method that was usually used by the devil race.    

Wang Lanxin's words basically confirmed that she was related to the devil race, and Gu Quan also thought of the fact that the Gu Family was shrouded in Devil Qi.    

"Mother, is the Devil Qi on the people of my Wang Family related to you?"    

Gu Quan suddenly stood up and stared at Wang Lanxin with murderous intent. He felt that things were not going well. Today's invitation from Wang Lanxin was probably a grand banquet. He was prepared to fight and escape at any time.    

As for the enmity between Wang Lanxin and Lei Sheng, it was no longer as important as before. Compared to deceiving their master and destroying their ancestors, colluding with the devil race was more serious.    

"Hmph, it was indeed me!"    

Wang Lanxin stood up with a cold expression and looked at Gu Quan with murderous intent. "Gu Quan, you ungrateful wretch, I knew that you wouldn't be willing to avenge your Master. Fortunately, I was prepared in advance!"    

"What did you do?"    

Gu Quan was startled. After hearing Wang Lanxin's confession, he had planned to escape. However, Wang Lanxin's words gave him a bad feeling. He vaguely felt that he might not be able to escape.    

Above the Wang Family Mansion, where Wang Lanxin and Gu Quan did not notice, Ye Feng was fighting in the void. His eyes were cold as he looked at the Orchid Heart Forest where Gu Quan and the others were.    

Streams of pitch-black Devil Dao laws appeared around the Orchid Heart Forest. They interweaved and formed a needle technique that overflowed with Devil Qi, enveloping the entire Orchid Heart Forest.    

This was the Forbidden Formation of the Devil Clan. It sealed the space and was almost impossible to break through from the inside. However, it could easily destroy it from the outside.    

Therefore, Ye Feng was not in a hurry to rescue Gu Quan. He planned to let Gu Quan recognize Wang Lanxin's true identity first.    

Moreover, the Devil Clan that colluded with Wang Lanxin should be Ancestor Zhen Shuang. He wanted to see if Wang Lanxin would reveal any information about Ancestor Zhen Shuang.    

Even if he could not obtain any useful information, Ye Feng could still capture Wang Lanxin and interrogate her. This would require him to set up a formation in advance to seal the space so that Wang Lanxin would not be able to escape.    

Therefore, Wang Lanxin's attack on Gu Quan gave Ye Feng the opportunity to set up the formation. Naturally, he would not rescue Gu Quan now.
