Chapter 12870 The Four Great Treasures of the Demon Sect
Ling Xiao frowned slightly when he heard the words of the Demon Soul King.

He did not directly refute, but calmly analyzed: "Shameless? But we must admit that war is never just about the nobleness of the means. If the Holy Temple is really as weak as you said, then even if they used the so-called 'shameless' means, how could they successfully destroy the Demon Sect? This itself is a reflection of their strength."

The Demon Soul King was choked by Ling Xiao's words and was speechless. He was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Ling Xiao's words. Finally, he sighed, nodded, and tacitly agreed with Ling Xiao's point of view.

He understood that although he was full of dissatisfaction and anger towards the Holy Temple, the facts were before him and the Holy Temple did possess strength that could not be underestimated.

The Demon Soul King was silent for a while, his eyes were as sharp as torches, focused on the charming woman in front of him. She seemed like a fairy walking out of the dark night, exuding a mysterious and seductive aura.

The Demon Soul King took a deep breath, then he knelt deeply on the ground, his voice full of awe and loyalty: "Demon Lord, you have worked hard, I will rescue you right away!"

However, the woman seemed to be frozen, without any reaction. She stood there quietly, with bright eyes, white teeth, and skin as white as jade. She looked like a living being, but she seemed to be isolated from the world and oblivious to everything in the outside world.

Ling Xiao watched this scene from the side and couldn't help feeling confused.

He couldn't help but say, "Is she stupid? After all, this is just a clone, and the consciousness she possesses is extremely limited. If no one communicates with her for a long time, then when this little bit of consciousness dissipates, she will become a pure walking corpse."

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman suddenly spoke. Her voice was clear and pleasant, without the arrogance and indifference that one might imagine, but instead revealed a bit of playfulness and tsundereness: "You are the walking dead, your whole family is the walking dead!" The corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was laughing at Ling Xiao's guess, and seemed to express her disdain for such ignorant remarks.

"Uh... Senior, it turns out you can speak, then... why did you pretend to be mute before?" There was a hint of embarrassment in Ling Xiao's voice. He scratched his head, trying to ease the uncomfortable atmosphere.

He secretly thanked God that this clone was sealed and unable to move freely, otherwise if this senior really got angry, his fate would be disastrous.

After all, this is a demon cultivator, and the leader of the Demon Sect, one of the strongest demon cultivators. He had heard of his hot temper.

The woman didn't seem to care about Ling Xiao's surprise. She curled her lips and said unhappily: "Is it okay if I don't want to talk? Do I have to speak when I see you?" There was a bit of dissatisfaction and arrogance in her voice.

"Makes sense!"

Ling Xiao gave a thumbs up.

He felt that he couldn't refute it.

The Demon Soul King looked embarrassed. He bowed deeply and said respectfully, "Demon Lord, I am the leader of the Demon Soul Sect, Mo Li. Although I am only a clone now, I swear that no matter what the cost, I will do my best to rescue you!"

After hearing this, the woman waved her hand gently and said calmly, "Mo Li, this ban was set up by the old guys in the Holy Hall. It is extremely powerful. With your clone's ability, you really can't break it. Moreover, even if you can do it, it will immediately attract the strong men from the Holy Hall headquarters to come, and then you and this little kid will be in danger."

Hearing this, the Demon Soul King showed a determined look on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Demon Lord, even if this is the case, I can't let you suffer here. You are our leader and the spiritual pillar of our Demon Soul Sect. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up."

The woman looked at the Demon Soul King's determined eyes, a hint of admiration flashed in her eyes, but then she regained her calm.

She said calmly, "Mo Li, I feel your loyalty. But you don't have to worry about me. The demon soul of my clone is about to dissipate. That little kid is right. The reason why I can still maintain this clone is because I have been waiting for a descendant who can inherit my magical powers. Since you are here, you are the most suitable candidates."

The woman said this, her eyes swept between Ling Xiao and the Demon Soul King, and her tone revealed a hint of relief. She continued: "If you are willing, I will teach you my magic skills. In this way, even if my clone disappears, my legacy can be continued."

"Senior, I would like to ask, I wonder if the legendary Demon Lord Black Sky Sword is here with you?" Ling Xiao took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm, but he could hardly conceal his inner excitement and anticipation.

In fact, he did not have much expectation for the inheritance of this Demon Lord's clone. After all, it was just a clone. How much true inheritance could it have?
His real goal was the legendary Demon Lord Black Sky Sword. This sword was not only extremely powerful, but also carried the glory and dignity of the demon cultivators. It was the main purpose of his trip.

The woman nodded slightly, her eyes deep: "Yes, the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword is indeed with me. The old guys in the Holy Temple who claim to be righteous did not kill me directly, but imprisoned me here in order to find the whereabouts of this sword."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao was so excited that he couldn't express it in words. He immediately bowed and said respectfully: "Senior, if you are willing to give me the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword, I will be very grateful!"

The woman smiled lightly, with a playful gleam in her eyes: "Oh? What makes you think I will give you this sword?"

"Why not?" Ling Xiao's voice was full of determination and refusal to accept. He asked back, "I have already stepped into the path of magic, and I have mastered the infinitely powerful Destroying Magic Needle. The future of the Demon Sect, whether it can rise again, and whether it can defeat the lofty Holy Hall, all depends on me. Could it be that, Demon Lord, you really don't want the Demon Sect to rise again? Don't want us to stand under the sun again?"

The woman looked at Ling Xiao's eager and determined eyes, shook her head slightly, and sighed: "You overestimate yourself, Ling Xiao." There was a bit of blame and disappointment in her words, and she seemed to be a little indifferent to Ling Xiao's self-confidence.

“Do you know? The Demon Sect once had four great treasures, each of which contained powerful power, and the World-Destroying Demon Needle was just one of them.” The woman said slowly, with a deep light flashing in her eyes.

"These four treasures are all unique in their own way, and there is no difference between them. As far as I know, the other three treasures had already found their owners a hundred years ago. Those people were also extremely talented, and each of them left a strong mark on the path of magic."
