“That’s how it is….”

Chen Fan nodded slightly.

Right in front of him, there were four light screens.

One of the light screens showed Li Mu, Fang Yu, and others.

The two other screens, respectively, displayed Zhang Jiang, guardian of the Imperial City, and Han Jiang who safeguarded Demon City.

The last light screen featured a blond, blue-eyed man… That was Katos, the Sacred Realm Peak of Star Nation!

On Chen Fan’s left and right sides, to the left was Ziteng Zhenyi, and to the right were the Blind Man, the Lame Man, and four others.

On the screens, with his feet propped on the table, Li Mu began to smile, “I knew that once you got involved, you would resolve this matter quickly, but I didn’t expect it to be this simple and easy.”

Zhang Jiang said indifferently, “To speak of resolution now is premature.”

Han Jiang nodded and added, “From Yang Nation, let’s see if any abnormalities appear in those who’ve taken the ‘Antidote’ later on.”

“If this Antidote can completely remove the Demon’s Blood, it would be a tremendous opportunity for us!”

Ziteng Zhenyi stated, “That’s my thought as well…”

“Those whom we’ve rescued earlier have all returned to normal, and no abnormalities have surfaced so far.”

“I shall keep a close eye and observe them for a while.”

Li Mu, with the corner of his mouth slightly upturned, said, “Ziteng, you’ll need to keep playing this act.”

“Acting?” Ziteng Zhenyi’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “You mean to say…?”

Li Mu spoke up, “Elder Xa once mentioned that this ‘Demon’s Blood Plan’ is the most terrifying scheme of Nightmare Hall, and the Demon’s Blood is their most dread secret weapon.”

“The Five Great Demon Kings were merely pawns brought to Blue Star by the 6th Sky Demon King, but it was through the use of Demon’s Blood that these five beings were forcibly pushed to the peak of the Sacred Realm!”

“We can use their plan to our advantage by depleting their supply of Demon’s Blood!”

“After you purified the people from Wo Yang Country, Chen Fan, the formidable power of the Demon’s Blood remained undispelled, correct?”

Ziteng Zhenyi nodded, “That’s correct!”

“That’s just it,” said Li Mu. “They’ve delivered such a fine gift to your doorstep, and it would be rather rude not to gratefully accept it!”

“But…” Ziteng Zhenyi hesitated slightly, “What if the Antidote has side effects?”

“Or say, perhaps after a while, they undergo Demonic Transformation or some other terrible change?”

Li Mu abruptly gestured and spoke, “First, if there’s a problem with the Antidote and it cannot fully remove the Demonic Transformation, Chen Fan can still perform ‘Purification’; at most, it just means he’ll be a bit more tired;”

“Second, the Antidote is definitely effective! The only problem lies in the dosage of the Antidote!”

Ziteng Zhenyi’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Although I’ve witnessed Chen Fan using the ‘Antidote’ to dispel Demonic Transformation, what’s the basis for your confidence in the Antidote’s effectiveness?”

“Li Mu, I appreciate Chen Fan and I’m not doubting his abilities, but we need to be pragmatic here—you can’t use the citizens of Wo Yang Country as guinea pigs!”

“Are you an idiot?” said Li Mu. “Nightmare Hall is the one using you as guinea pigs, not me.”

“Do you think you have a choice?”

“Since they’ve already targeted Wo Yang Country, can you truly defend against the next assault?”

Ziteng Zhenyi’s complexion turned slightly difficult to read.

Wo Yang Country is huge, more than ten times larger than that Earth island.

Even he, at the peak of Sacred Realm, cannot fully cover all the main cities of Wo Yang Country with his spiritual power.@@novelbin@@

Nightmare Hall is pervasive, to the extent that even his proud disciple Jing Ye was swayed by them.

How easy can it be to fend off the “Demon’s Blood Plan”?

Katos, who had been silent all along, also looked grave.

No one could be sure whether Nightmare Hall would extend their hands towards Star Nation.

The main reason the Tang Country has not been targeted by Nightmare Hall is because of the Tetrad of Sacred Realm Peaks there.

But Yang Nation had only Ziteng Zhenyi, and Star Nation only had Katos!

Katos stared intently at Chen Fan.

This young man who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere had suddenly become the savior of The World, an utterly unimaginable notion!

How had Tang Country managed to produce such a genius?

…

Taking a deep breath, Ziteng Zhenyi said, “Li Mu, I’m not questioning Chen Fan, but you just asserted that the Antidote must be effective—what’s the basis for that claim?”

“When I sought your help before, you didn’t even know what ‘Demon’s Blood’ was.”

“Why are you so certain now?”

Katos too was fixed on Li Mu.

A Mona Lisa-like smile appeared on Li Mu’s face, yet he remained silent.

Unable to bear it any longer, Han Jiang said, “Stop posturing and tell him directly.”

Li Mu considered for a moment before speaking, “To be honest, though you and Katos are my juniors, I really don’t feel like sharing with you.”

Ziteng Zhenyi coughed lightly and asked, “So, even after all these years, even our Master trusts us, yet you still treat us as outsiders?”

“Nonsense!” Li Mu retorted sharply. “Back when we were at war with Nightmare Hall, you holed up in Yang Nation, Katos holed up in Star Nation, did either of you offer a helping hand?”

“You watched us fight to death, enjoying the spectacle…”

“Why on earth should I trust you?”

“I didn’t join forces with Zhang Jiang to attack Yang Nation and Star Nation merely due to Han Jiang’s intervention!”

“Otherwise, I would have long since ground you into fish chow!”

Ziteng Zhenyi and Katos were both terribly embarrassed.

Ziteng Zhenyi, coughing again, said, “I… I too held back Nightmare Hall’s forces at that time, if not for my containment, how could you have had such an easy time defeating them?”
