Chapter 321: Lotus Leaves Are Poisonous

In a fierce battle with the Jungle Lightning Wolf, Su Yao was accidentally scratched by the wolf's claws, and her clothes were dyed red with blood. When Gu Sheng saw this, his heart tightened, and he quickly stepped forward to check her injuries.

"Are you okay?" Gu Sheng asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Su Yao gritted her teeth and said, "It's just a minor injury."

Seeing her strong appearance, Gu Sheng couldn't help but feel tenderness in his heart. He stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the blood on her face: "Don't worry, I'm here and I won't let you get hurt in any way."

The two looked at each other, and there was a hint of ambiguity in the air. However, at this moment, a more powerful monster - Xuantian Mangxiong suddenly appeared in front of them.

"You actually broke into my territory!" Xuantian Mangxiong roared angrily, waving his huge bear paw towards the two of them.

As Gu Sheng thought, the grass and vine demon soul turned into a green lotus vortex again and came forward. Qinglian collided with the bear's paw and made a deafening noise. The power of Xuantian Mangxiong is so powerful that the Qinglian Vortex cannot completely swallow it.

"No!" Gu Sheng secretly screamed in his heart. He had to come up with a countermeasure as soon as possible otherwise both of them would be in danger.

At this moment, Su Yao suddenly shouted: "Junior Brother Gu, look there!" She pointed to a cave behind Xuantian Mangxiong, "There seems to be something shining in there!"

Gu Sheng took a closer look and found that there was a crystal clear water spirit bead in the cave that was emitting a soft light.

"It's the fifth water spirit bead!" Gu Sheng shouted in surprise, "We have to find a way to get it!"

"But this Xuantian Mangxiong is too difficult to deal with." Su Yao said anxiously, "What should we do?"

A trace of determination flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes: "You attract its attention, and I will take the opportunity to get the Water Spirit Pearl."

Su Yao nodded and agreed. She waved the long sword in her hand and fought with Xuantian Mangxiong. Gu Sheng took the opportunity to approach the cave.

When he finally got the fifth water spirit bead, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart. With this water spirit bead, their strength will be even higher.

Floor!

"Ouch~"

At this moment, Xuantian Mangxiong suddenly let out a deafening roar. It discovered Gu Sheng's intention and rushed towards him.

"Junior Brother Gu, be careful!" Su Yao exclaimed.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly. Instead of escaping, he rushed towards Xuantian Mangxiong. At the critical moment, he urged the grass and vine demon soul to turn into a huge green lotus and tightly wrap the Xuantian Mangxiong.

"Zizzizi..."

The corrosive nature of Qinglian quickly eroded Xuantian Mangxiong's body, causing it to scream in agony.

This is just a small secret realm in the Yaochi Holy Land. There are many similar secret realms in the Yaochi Holy Land.

Happy days are always short-lived. Soon, Gu Sheng received an invitation from Baihua Valley, the territory of the demon tribe, and went to Baihua Valley alone.

In Baihua Valley, there are lanterns and colorful decorations, and it is very lively. As soon as Gu Sheng landed, he was shocked by the sight in front of him. I saw the fragrance of flowers in the valley, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants competed in beauty, just like a fairyland. The demon clan in the valley were even more enthusiastic, singing and dancing to celebrate this rare event.

"Gu Shaoxia, you are finally here!" Yan Ruyu, the Holy Master of the Demon Clan, came up to her. She was dressed dignified and elegant in gorgeous clothes, with a grateful smile on her face. "Today is a big day for my Demon Clan. Thank you for coming. ”

"Holy Lord Yan, you're so polite. It's an honor for Gu to be invited here." Gu Sheng returned the greeting with cupped hands.

At this time, the Peacock King also came over. He laughed and said, "Gu Sheng, you have made great contributions to our demon clan this time. Today's celebration is specially designed for you."

"Oh? I wonder what contribution Gu has made?" Gu Sheng asked pretending to be confused.

"Hahaha, don't be humble, kid." The Peacock King patted Gu Sheng's shoulder, "If you hadn't helped us, how could we have regained the Demon Emperor's heart so smoothly?"

At this point, the Peacock King paused and continued: "Moreover, you not only helped us regain the heart of the Demon Emperor, but also allowed Yan Ruyu to inherit the position of the Holy Lord of the Demon Clan. This kindness will be remembered by us Demon Clan. mind."

When Gu Sheng heard this, his heart moved, but he did not show any emotion. He just smiled slightly and said, "Senior Peacock King is very grateful. Gu just happened to meet him."

At this time, Fairy Bai Qi, Elder Xuan Bing, Elder Ziwei and many other beautiful witches also gathered around and expressed their gratitude to Gu Sheng.

"Gu Shaoxia, you are the great benefactor of our demon clan!" Fairy Bai Qi said with a sweet smile.

"Yes, yes, Gu Shaoxia's kindness will be unforgettable to our demon tribe." Elder Xuan Bing also agreed.

Surrounded by everyone, Gu Sheng was invited to sit down at the main seat. Yan Ruyu raised her wine glass and said loudly: "Today is a happy day for our demon clan. Thank you all for coming. Especially Gu Shaoxia, our demon clan will remember your kindness in our hearts. Come, let us raise a glass together and cheers to Gu Shaoxia!" "

"Cheers!" Everyone shouted in unison, and the scene was very lively.

The night is getting darker, and the hustle and bustle of the celebrations has gradually dissipated.

Yan Ruyu walked lightly to Gu Sheng's residence, feeling both expectant and nervous. She hadn't seen him for more than a year, and her longing for Gu Sheng surged like a tide. Tonight, she decided to put down her body and face him with her truest self.

Yan Ruyu knocked on the door gently, and Gu Sheng's voice came from behind the door: "Who is it?"

"It's me, Yan Ruyu." She responded softly.

The door slowly opened with a creak, and Gu Sheng's figure appeared at the door. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Holy Lord Yan, what's the important matter so late?"

Yan Ruyu smiled slightly, with a different kind of brilliance in her eyes, "Mr. Gu, you have been very kind to our demon clan. Tonight, I want to express my gratitude to you in person."

Gu Sheng turned aside to let Yan Ruyu enter the house, and the two sat opposite each other. Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng and said affectionately: "Mr. Gu, it has been more than a year since we last said goodbye. Over the past year or so, I have often thought of you and the days when we fought side by side..."

Gu Sheng felt a warm current in his heart as he listened to Yan Ruyu's confession. He couldn't help but feel a little moved when he looked at Yan Ruyu's affectionate eyes. He knew that he also had different feelings for this beautiful and powerful woman.

Yan Ruyu gently held Gu Sheng's hand and said softly: "Mr. Gu, you have been kind to our demon clan. Tonight, I want to give you a special reward. As long as you are willing, I will try my best to fulfill any of your wishes. "

Gu Sheng felt the warmth in Yan Ruyu's palm, and his heart was filled with excitement. He looked at Yan Ruyu's expectant eyes, took a deep breath, and said: "Holy Lord Yan, you value Gu so much, Gu is grateful. If you really want to make any wish, I only hope that the demon clan can prosper. Prosperity and eternal peace.”

Hearing this, Yan Ruyu's eyes flashed with emotion. She knew that Gu Sheng was a responsible man who had the entire demon clan in his heart. She held Gu Sheng's hand tightly and said affectionately: "Mr. Gu, your wish is also my wish. Let's work together for the sake of the demon clan."

The two smiled knowingly, and the atmosphere gradually heated up. Yan Ruyu leaned lightly on Gu Sheng's shoulder and whispered: "Mr. Gu, actually, I have one more request. I hope you can help me."

"Holy Lord Yan, please tell me, as long as Gu can do it, I will not refuse." Gu Sheng said firmly.

Yan Ruyu raised her head and looked into Gu Sheng's eyes, "I hope you can use your ancient holy body to nourish the demon emperor's heart. This heart is vital to our demon clan, but it has gradually weakened in recent years and requires strong vitality. Come and nourish it. I believe that your physique and cultivation will be able to help it.”

Gu Sheng was stunned when he heard the words and hesitated a little. After being nudged by Yan Ruyu, he nodded, "Since Lord Yan trusts Gu so much, then Gu should give it a try."

Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Gu."

When the two came to the secret room, they saw a heart glowing faintly suspended in the air. This is the heart of the demon emperor, it exudes a powerful aura, and every rhythm has overwhelming imperial power.

Gu Sheng took a deep breath, stretched out his palm and gently touched the demon emperor's heart. He felt a powerful life force pouring into his body and merging with his own life force. This feeling is very strange, as if I have established a mysterious connection with the demon emperor's heart.

As time went by, Gu Sheng felt that his life force was passing away, but he did not stop. Yan Ruyu's guardian gave him some kind of ecstasy.

Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng nervously, fearing that something might happen to him. When she saw Gu Sheng's face gradually turning pale, her heart ached, "Mr. Gu, are you okay?"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired."

Yan Ruyu looked at Gu Sheng gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Gu. You have paid so much for the Monster Clan."

As time passed, Gu Sheng felt that his vitality had been completely integrated with the demon emperor's heart. He slowly retracted his palm and took a deep breath, "Okay, Holy Master Yan, I have tried my best."

Yan Ruyu looked at the Heart of the Demon Emperor excitedly. She felt that its aura had obviously become much stronger, "Thank you, Mr. Gu. You have made great contributions to our Demon Clan."

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "This is what I should do."

The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly, as if everything was unspoken. They know that tonight's experience will be a memory in their hearts forever.

At this moment, the demon emperor's heart suddenly burst out with intense light. A powerful wave of power swept through the entire chamber, as if it was about to swallow everything.

"boom!"

Both Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu were shocked by this power. They looked at the Demon Emperor's Heart with surprise and awe in their eyes.

"What's going on?" Gu Sheng asked in surprise.

Yan Ruyu also felt incredible, "I don't know, this situation has never happened before."

They stared closely at the Heart of the Demon Emperor, and saw that its light was getting stronger and stronger, as if it was about to break through the sky. This power made them feel palpitated, but at the same time it also made them feel extremely excited and looking forward to it.

After a long time, the light of the Demon Emperor's Heart gradually weakened. When it returned to calm, both Gu Sheng and Yan Ruyu breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that the demon emperor's heart has been fully nourished." Yan Ruyu sighed, "Mr. Gu, you have really brought hope to our demon clan."

In the night, the conversation between Yan Ruyu and Gu Sheng continued.

"Mr. Gu, since your physique can resonate with the heart of the Demon Emperor, I would like to ask you for another favor." Yan Ruyu's voice contained a hint of pleading and expectation.

Gu Sheng frowned slightly, "Holy Master Yan, please speak."

"I hope you can put the Heart of the Demon Emperor into the secret seabed realm of your Dantian to warm it up for a while." Yan Ruyu said her request.

Gu Sheng was shocked when he heard this and immediately shook his head and refused, "Holy Master Yan, I cannot agree to this request. The Demon Emperor's Heart is the most precious treasure of the Demon Clan. If something unexpected happens inside my body, how can I afford it?"

"Mr. Gu, I trust you. Moreover, your physique is special. I believe you can warm up the demon emperor's heart." Yan Ruyu's tone was very firm.

Gu Sheng still shook his head, "No, this is too risky. I can't agree."

Seeing Gu Sheng so determined, Yan Ruyu couldn't help but feel anxious, "Mr. Gu, I beg you. The Demon Emperor's Heart is too important to our demon race, and only your physique can make it revitalized. I am willing to pay any price in exchange for your help."

Gu Sheng looked at Yan Ruyu's pleading eyes and hesitated. He knew the importance of the Demon Emperor's Heart to the demon race, but he was also worried that this "foreign object" would become the master after entering the body.

Under Yan Ruyu's soft and hard grinding, Gu Sheng finally gave in, "Okay, I can try, but I can only warm it for three months."

"Thank you, Mr. Gu." Yan Ruyu looked at him gratefully.

Gu Sheng took a deep breath and began to practice to prepare to put the Demon Emperor's Heart into the Dantian Seabed Secret Realm.

"Hu——" Gu Sheng took a deep breath and looked at the Demon Emperor's Heart in his hand with a firm look. This is not an easy task, but he knows he must complete it. For the demon race, and for himself.

He could feel the surge of energy in his dantian, as if a golden ocean was waiting for a new master.

With a light sound of "Swish--", Gu Sheng cut open the bottom of the dantian, and the golden dantian was cut open, revealing a deep hole. The surging golden waves surged out of the hole, which was the energy of the underwater secret world, surging and awe-inspiring.

Gu Sheng carefully placed the huge Demon Emperor's Heart into this mysterious space. This process was not easy, he had to ensure that the Demon Emperor's Heart could be placed in it stably and could not cause any adverse reactions.

Just as the Demon Emperor's Heart was about to completely enter the dantian, a strange phenomenon suddenly occurred.

With a loud bang, the Demon Emperor's Heart suddenly burst out with a powerful energy fluctuation. This energy swept across the entire underwater secret world like a violent storm, and the golden waves were stirred up thousands of layers high, as if the whole world was shaking.

Gu Sheng was extremely shocked, and he felt a powerful divine consciousness surging from the Demon Emperor's Heart, forming a majestic figure. That was the Demon Emperor's consciousness. He seemed to have awakened from his deep sleep and wanted to compete with Gu Sheng for the sovereignty of this body.

"Who are you? How dare you put my heart into your body without permission!" The Demon Emperor's consciousness roared, and his voice was as shocking as thunder.

Gu Sheng secretly said in his heart that it was not good. If this continued, his body would be completely controlled by the Demon Emperor's heart. He had to find a way to suppress this powerful consciousness, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. (End of this chapter)
