I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

In the past two days, Gu Lan has been playing the role of a diligent donkey, and has been borrowed by the villagers to pull the mill, carry rice, and pull wood...

Her legs were shaking from exhaustion, and she didn't care what Gu Qi was going to do. Seeing him gloating over her miserable work, smiling with his white gums showing, Gu Lan was angry and shouted even louder.

On this day, Gu Lan was borrowed to pull a cart as usual. The mountain path was difficult to walk on, and the cart had one wheel. Although there was not much wood on it, it was enough to make Gu Lan tired.

Gu Lan was pulling the cart while thinking.

I don't know if the master and fellow disciples know that they have been captured. I don't know what happened to the disciples who were knocked unconscious by Gu Qi. When they were captured by Gu Qi, Gu Lan saw that Ling Yebai and others were covered with bloodstains and demonic energy. I hope they are all okay.

While thinking secretly, Gu Lan suddenly shook her long ears a few times. She heard a rustling sound and a hint of demonic energy.

The demonic energy was very faint, but it was indeed there. He couldn't help but wonder. In addition to Gu Qi, there were actually demons mixed in here? Just as he was thinking about it, he heard their conversation.

There was more than one person.

Although Gu Lan was turned into a donkey, he was a cultivator after all, so his hearing and eyesight were naturally more sensitive than those of ordinary villagers.

"Xu Guizhi? Xu Guizhi? Are you there?" Gu Lan called Xu Guizhi several times in her heart.

The two have been looking for opportunities to escape these days. Xu Guizhi has more freedom than Gu Lan, and often flies away when no one is paying attention.

Both of them felt that although there was no problem staying with Tianmo Guqi for the time being, there was no guarantee that Tianmo Guqi would suddenly go crazy one day and kill them.

Now Gu Lan feels like living with a tiger. She often feels that Gu Qi is a psychopath. Sometimes he is fine, and sometimes he is crazy.

When he went crazy, he left marks of the magic whip on Gu Lan. Ordinary people cannot see the marks of the magic whip, but cultivators can.

Gu Lan realized that Tianmo Guqi was suppressing his evil nature, and at a critical point, he always avoided everyone when his emotions fluctuated greatly, especially the girl named Daisy.

"How about you go and check it out secretly?"

Xu Guizhi had gone out a long time ago. Ever since Gu Lan turned into a donkey, Xu Guizhi was even more anxious than Gu Lan. Firstly, Gu Lan could no longer practice, and secondly, although the evil spirit had been stopped, it had not been eliminated and was infiltrating into his heart meridians little by little. If it was not removed in time, he would also be in trouble.

After finally finding his remaining soul, Xu Guizhi wanted to figure out who he was and why his soul was torn into several pieces and sealed separately.

Seeing that Xu Guizhi didn't respond for a long time, Gu Lan knew that Xu Guizhi had gone out again, so she stopped calling and waited for Xu Guizhi to come back and tell her after checking.

Xu Guizhi flew slowly over the grass roots and saw several demons transforming at the river bend on the hillside.

This group of demons are from the Earth Demon Clan. They all look different, but all are weird. Some have horns on their heads, some have bulges on their backs, and some have webbed feet and hands. They should be different races of Earth Demons, and some seem to be at the Demon Lord level.

There were also a few human cultivators gathered around them. They did not participate in the conversation, but had tense expressions, as if they were on guard against something.

Those demon lords were chatting.

Xu Guizhi ventured a little closer and heard their conversation.

A demon lord started talking, "What was the name of the demon lord that was destroyed by the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect?"

"It seems his name is Xiangliu." Another demon lord chimed in, and then he added with a gloating look, "This guy didn't submit to the Heavenly Demon and actually wanted to hook up with the Demon Sect to strengthen his strength. It's simply a foolish dream! Now he has been destroyed by the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect. It's really his own fault."

The other demon lord disagreed.

“That’s not the case, he still has some ambition, but he just has bad luck.

“When Tianmo Guqi’s magic power was not yet complete, the demon lords of various parties were fighting each other, and there were casualties on all sides. But from my observation, he did not suffer any losses at all, and the demons who surrendered to him were also very loyal.

"Since he was able to preserve his strength in the chaos, and at this time he was able to collude with the Demon Sect to strengthen himself, he must be smart and ambitious."

His words caused several demon lords to argue. Seeing that they could not convince each other, they glared at each other. However, one demon lord reminded them that they were now under the command of Tianmo Guqi, and they would be punished if they dueled privately without Tianmo Guqi's approval.

Everyone had experienced the brutality of the demon Guqi. Although they were not convinced in their hearts, they did not dare to continue to hate each other. Those who could not convince each other just snorted and kept silent.

There was one who seemed to have the greatest ability and brought up another topic.

"The monks who were chasing us just now were quite powerful. Although I just used a trick to evade them, I wonder if I have led them here? I am still a little worried. Why not ask these monks to go and check it out?"

The monks nodded and flew away quickly.

"I think you are too cautious. Wasn't that little disciple sent flying by my palm strike? His cultivation level is only at the late foundation building stage. How could you be so scared?"

"You idiot, this place is what Gu Qi values ​​the most. No matter how strong the opponent is, as long as he finds this place, won't it expose this place? Then those cultivators will gather here without asking any questions and destroy this place. You can just wait for your soul to be shattered by the Heavenly Demon Gu Qi and disappear forever!"

What he said made a lot of sense. This place was the one that Tianmo Guqi valued the most. No one else knew about this place except for a few demon lords like them. If they were discovered, Tianmo Guqi would be the first to suspect them.

Xu Guizhi's heart suddenly sank. If this was the place where the demon Guqi was hiding, he brought Gu Lan here because he didn't want Gu Lan to get out alive. It was a pity that the two of them were still trying to find a way out. Now it seemed that the demon Guqi either wanted to lock them up here forever, or wanted to turn them into ashes.

If he listened carefully, the demon lords seemed to be frightened by the terrible consequences and stopped talking. Xu Guizhi had no choice but to secretly return to Gu Lan and told her everything he had heard, as well as his own guesses.

"In fact, after I came in, I had almost guessed it. I felt that this was the pure land in his heart. If it was destroyed, he would definitely go crazy. And what is the cultivation level of the little disciple you just mentioned?"

"The late stage of foundation building." Xu Guizhi said.

Gu Lan felt a little uneasy, and had a bad feeling in his heart, wondering if it was his junior brothers. If they told the master that he was taken away by Tianmo Guqi, the junior brothers would definitely know, and they would definitely come to look for him at that time, but it wouldn't be such a coincidence, right?

I hope it's not a coincidence.
