His eyes widened involuntarily, "Lord..."
Qing Ge, who should have fallen into the same crisis, appeared contently instead.
Lu Qingshan, with his arms crossed in front of his chest, coldly watched the bound Pu Qu Demon Marshal, a murderous intent emerging in his eyes.
After a momentary distraction, upon seeing the respectful demeanor Yu Sha and Yu Kui displayed in front of "Qing Ge", Pu Qu suddenly realized, "Did they attack me per the Lord’s instruction?"
"But..."
"Why? Lord, why would you kill me?" Pu Qu struggled fiercely in resentment.
Hiss hiss hiss!
The Demon Dragon binding Pu Qu tightened again, causing black smoke to rise from his physical body.
With a chuckling smile, Lu Qingshan said, "Didn’t I say earlier, such a waste, what use do I have for you?"
While speaking, Lu Qingshan fiddled with the Storage Ring in his hand, his face playful.
No, it should better be called mustard seed.
This is the name the Demon Race uses for the Storage Ring.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
Lu Qingshan reminded himself inwardly.
"Why? Why? I have been loyal to you, Lord, risking my life for you. Why would you collude with outsiders against me?"
Pu Qu Demon Marshal was unable to accept and comprehend Lu Qingshan’s words, his voice filled with bitterness and anger.
"Just because I failed to kill the Marquis of An Hai? I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it! How could you treat me this way, Lord?"
"Still pretending?" Seeing that Lu Qingshan didn’t reply, the City Lord of Feather Demon City, quick to seize the opportunity, immediately stepped forward and mocked, "If you don’t want anyone to know, don’t do it at all.
As a dog slave of the Chi Pu Sect, you have lurked beside Lord Qing Ge for so long, who knows how many acts of treason you have committed against the Lord. Did you really think the Lord wouldn’t notice at all?"
Previously furious and yelling, Pu Qu, upon hearing the City Lord of Feather Demon City’s words, suddenly fell silent.
The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.
This actually made Lu Qingshan’s heart skip a beat.
What’s going on?
At this time, Pu Qu should be vehemently denying the accusations, filled with indignation, right?
A few moments later.
"When did you discover it, Lord?" 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Pu Qu Demon Marshal looked gloomily at Lu Qingshan, gritting his teeth, and struggled to spit out these words.
Yu Sha and Yu Luo showed indifference, with no significant reaction—it was all within their grasp.
But Lu Qingshan, who was behind it all, was momentarily startled at this time, somewhat perplexed?
What does this mean?
Only then did Lu Qingshan suddenly realize, staring at Pu Qu Demon Marshal, a trace of inexplicable meaning emerging in his gaze.
So... you were indeed a spy sent by the Chi Pu Sect?
So, his baseless accusations against Pu Qu had turned out to be astutely prescient?
… Absurd.
No wonder Pu Qu Demon Marshal had been peppering him with incessant questions from the moment they met, even caring whether "Qing Ge" had refined his Life-bound Sword.
It was all to gather information about Qing Ge to report back and curry favor with Chi Pu.
Even with Lu Qingshan’s resolute nature, he couldn’t help but laugh and almost wanted to facepalm at this moment.
This Lord Qing Ge, how could he really trust someone sent by the Chi Pu Sect as one of his most valued subordinates? What a ludicrous affair!
How stupid can one be?
Talent.
Though internally speechless, Lu Qingshan had already stepped forward at this moment.
Swish!
A long sword appeared in his hand.
The Demon Soldier of Qing Ge, "Black Blood".
"With my astute judgment, I saw through your disguise long ago," Lu Qingshan said lightly, "I had just been pretending not to notice until now."
As he spoke, he thrust the Black Blood in his hand directly toward Pu Qu’s forehead, aiming for the Blood God Pupils.
Bound by the Demon Dragon, Pu Qu, with a struggle flashing in his eyes, tried to dodge the sword but was ultimately powerless to resist.
Crack!
The sound of shattering jade resounded.
The Blood God Pupils of Pu Qu Demon Marshal instantly broke into countless tiny fragments, reflecting mesmerizing colors of light.
Blood splattered forth.
Pain flashed through Pu Qu’s eyes.
The lifeline of the Blood God Body is the Blood God Pupils; with the Blood God Pupils shattered, his Blood God Body was already largely destroyed.
But it wasn’t over yet.
The sword blade continued forward, directly penetrating into Pu Qu’s brain.
Lu Qingshan grasped the hilt and twisted it gently.
The domineering Indestructible Demon Qi surged out, instantly shattering Pu Qu’s spirit into countless pieces, dispersing into nothingness.
Following a painful groan, Pu Qu finally became completely silent.
