Mutual cooperation?
Everyone looked at Jue Ming in shock. Did the leader of the Wu Kong organization think too much? Just a moment ago, they were fighting for their lives, and now he turned around and suggested turning weapons into friendship? How could that be possible?
“Are you joking? Cooperate together?”
“Don't even think about it. I must kill them today.”
“Jue Ming, actually we can join forces. If our five major powers come together, we might be able to stop Qin Chen and Ao Lie and kill them here.”
“Right, what’s the point of talking nonsense with them?”
As cold voices rang out, Xue Wu Dao and the others stepped forward, their eyes icy, a murderous aura enveloping them.
“Hahaha, Jue Ming, I thought you were going to say something important, but it turns out to be this kind of idea. As you can see, these people will never agree, and moreover, how can we trust you?”
Qin Chen's gaze flickered as he sneered.
Jue Ming said solemnly, “Everyone, listen to me. You came here for wealth; no one wants their treasures to be taken away by others. But today, if we let them leave, then no one will obtain the treasures within this demon corpse. We should all understand the weight of this matter.”
“This place, I arrived earlier than you all, so I understand it very well. This great hall is the Death Demon Palace of the ancient master of the Yan Luo Demon Race. Within this demon palace lies the ultimate treasure of the Yan Luo Demon Race, the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree. This is their supreme treasure, as long as we obtain this demon tree, we can even catch a glimpse of the Saint Realm, let alone the mere Earth Saint. I don’t believe you all are willing to give that up.”
“The Yan Luo Demon Race’s supreme treasure?”
“The Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree?”
Everyone was taken aback.
Although they didn’t know what the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree was, being called the supreme treasure of the Yan Luo Demon Race indicated its remarkable status. At the very least, it was a Saint-level treasure.
It should be noted that the Yan Luo Demon Race was considered average among the many demon races back then, and if the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree was truly their supreme treasure, then it would definitely be extraordinary even among Saint-level treasures.
“Hmph, if the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree really exists, would you kindly reveal it?”
Qin Chen's gaze flickered as he sneered.
Not just him, even Xue Wu Dao and the others looked puzzled.
Would the Wu Kong organization willingly give up a treasure like the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree?
Jue Ming lightly said, “What’s there to hide? The reason I am willing to propose this suggestion is actually for two reasons. First, I cannot let you leave here. I have already understood your strength very clearly. Even if I join forces with the other three major powers, I don’t have absolute confidence in being able to keep you here. If you manage to escape, you and Lord Ao Lie will definitely spread the news, and powerful Earth Saints will come, which is against our interests.”
“Secondly, there are many dangers within the Death Demon Palace. Relying solely on our group, we may not be able to enter the depths of the palace and find the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree. However, if we add the three major cities and your expertise from Cang Xuan City, I have a seventy percent confidence in being able to enter the depths of the Death Demon Palace and find the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree.”
“Otherwise, do you think I would hide here? If I had the ability, I could have entered the depths of the Death Demon Palace alone long ago instead of wasting time lurking here to ambush you. Since you have escaped my assassination, you have gained my approval, and that’s why I made this suggestion.”
“What do you all think?”
Jue Ming looked towards everyone.
In this… everyone fell into silence. Everything Jue Ming said left the crowd in shock. The Death Demon Palace, the Ten Thousand Worlds Demon Tree, Jue Ming's knowledge of this demon corpse far surpassed that of all present.
