Soon, I discovered that the man in black actually flew back to the palace with me. What was he doing? Could he be the person next to the Demon Emperor
The man in black gradually slowed down and landed quietly near the woodshed. Judging from the amount of sweat on his body, I knew that he was almost exhausted, and I couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
The man in black threw me into the woodshed, looked around, closed the door, and gasped: "You are so heavy, I almost didn't come back. Don't think too much, I won't destroy you just yet." Kung Fu. I have something to ask you." After saying that, he took off the mask on his head.
I was stunned. The man in black in front of me was the Uncle Chai who only drank and chopped firewood all day long. I was stunned and said, "Uncle Chai, how could it be you?"
Uncle Chai chuckled, regained his original voice and said: "Why can't it be me? From the first day you came here, I saw that you are not simple. Tell me, why do you have a first-level artifact?" He spoke. At the same time, I found that his fighting spirit was recovering quickly. I understood that with force, I had no chance. Facing this enemy that could rival the Demon Emperor, I sighed and said, "Since you If you want to know, then I will tell you, it is like this, I am originally a magician in the human Aisha Empire, and I have practiced light magic since I was a child..." I gave a rough summary of my experience, including of course the many... When I mentioned the recognition of the King of Gods and the passage of the Holy Sword to me, Uncle Chai’s brows furrowed deeply.
"... That's it, we came to the Demon Clan together, trying to dissuade the Demon King from using troops against humans, and combined our strength to resist the Demon King who was about to be resurrected, but the Demon King didn't listen to our explanation at all, and insisted on going his own way, beating me to death. Seriously injured and captured my companions.”
Uncle Chai nodded and said, "You are quite cruel. In order to save your companions, you actually disfigured yourself and went to the Demon Palace as an undercover agent."
I smiled bitterly: "Do you think this is what I want? I was invaded by the Demon King's dark magic energy and corroded my body. If it weren't for the protection of the Holy Sword, I'm afraid I would have been finished. But the body's The scars can never be healed.”
"So that's it. You go out every night these days, and I follow you secretly. It seems that your relationship with Muzi is unusual." This old guy is really attentive. I didn't say anything about my relationship with Muzi just now. I didn't expect that he had been following me. It seemed that I had to tell the truth. It felt like Uncle Chai was not very hostile to me. I smiled awkwardly and said, "Since you are so towards the demons, Understand, you should know about Muzi going undercover in a human country. I am her classmate, you can also say that I am her lover. I am sincere to Muzi. One of the important reasons for coming to the Demon Clan this time is for her, but you I also saw that I am like this, how can I be worthy of Muzi? I can only look at her silently in secret." Saying this touched my heart and I couldn't help but feel sad.
Uncle Chai said: "Put on your clothes first. The whole capital was alerted just now. Someone might search here.
I said in surprise: "Aren't you going to hand me over? I'm here undercover."
Uncle Chai nodded slightly and said, "Just because I don't hand you over doesn't prove that I will let you go. Don't think that what you said just now moved me. I only temporarily believed in you because of the first-level artifact you have."
I asked: "Both you and the Demon King have mentioned level one artifacts. What does this mean? Are artifacts divided into levels?"
Uncle Chai looked at me like an idiot and said: "Of course there are levels. Didn't the King of the Gods tell you when he passed on the holy sword to you? There are 5 levels of artifacts, and the first level is the most powerful. It is powerful and can only be owned and distributed by the King of Gods. The reason why I believe in you is precisely for this reason. The King of Gods will never make a mistake and pass his sword to an evil person like you. The Staff of Dragon God Socrates mentioned is basically a level 4 artifact, while the Dark Demonic Dragon Spear used by the Demon King was passed down from the ancient demon god and is a level 2 artifact.”
I said in surprise: "So that's it, then why can't my first-level artifact plus a fourth-level artifact be able to withstand the Demon King's second-level artifact?"
Uncle Chai said while changing his clothes: "That's because your absolute strength is not enough. Do you think the artifact is so easy to control? Not to mention the first-level artifact, with your current strength, you can't even use any fourth-level artifact. All the power, and the current Demon King is the number one genius in the history of our demon clan. He can master the full power of the Dark Demon Dragon Spear at the age of more than 50 years old, although this has a certain degree of help from his mount Dark Demon Dragon. relationship. But his intelligence and hard work cannot be questioned. Your current ability is at least two levels behind him. Although the Demon King has not reached the level of God of War in terms of martial arts, the difference is not very far. Unless you can go to that canyon to accept the inheritance of the God of Light as the King of Gods said, otherwise, let alone the Demon King, you will definitely not be a match for the Demon Emperor."
His analysis was correct. When I was at his peak, there were two more artifacts that couldn't defeat the Demon Emperor. It was indeed a gap in strength. I originally thought that I was already considered the top master in the mainland, but compared with the Demon Emperor and Uncle Chai, Still too far behind.
Uncle Chai had already changed his clothes. Suddenly, he coughed violently and turned pale. I had recovered some strength, so I quickly stepped forward to support him and asked, "What's wrong with you, Uncle Chai?"
Uncle Chai glared at me, picked up the firewood from the side and started chopping it. As he was chopping, he said: "It's not you who caused the fault. I'm old and useless. I spent too much energy today and my old habits have returned." ”
I walked over and said, "Let me chop it for you while you rest for a while." Now, my life is in someone else's hands, so I don't dare to provoke him casually.
Uncle Chai said: "No, I can do it myself. In order to train my fighting spirit to the level of the God of War, I forcibly opened the meridians. Although it succeeded, it also hurt my lungs. The lungs belong to wood. In order to disperse the lung energy, I opened the meridians forcibly." I’ve been chopping firewood here for decades. I’m 97 years old, and I probably don’t have many more years to live.”
I put on my original clothes and said to Uncle Chai: "At first glance, you are not an ordinary person. Why do you stay here? It shouldn't be just to chop firewood."
