At night, Zhong Weiling had a dream.

In the dream, Xie Zhiqin pointed his sword at him. He kept calling Xie Zhiqin's name, trying to restore his sanity, but in the end it was fruitless. It was even stronger when I started to realize that I was really just a character in a book.

Although it was just a dream, for a moment, Zhong Weiling would rather never have known Xie Zhiqin, and never had what happened on the night of the Immortal Demon Ceremony.

When I woke up in the middle of the night, the cold sweat from my back soaked through my clothes, the moonlight shone into the room through the window lattice, and the fine sweat on my forehead reflected the cold light.

The little puppet was awakened by his movement, and quickly got out of his arms: "A Ling, what's wrong with you?"

Zhong Weiling lowered his head and supported his forehead, and said in a deep voice, "It's nothing."

After a long time, Zhong Weiling regained his composure. He looked out the window, held the puppet in his palm, and asked in a deep voice, "Where did your master go?"

Xie Muppets smiled slightly: "I'm just looking for a way to solve your worries. Don't worry, Ah Ling. I'll be back soon."

Zhong Weiling frowned: "How fast is it? Two days? Or half a month?"

Xie Puppet stopped talking.

Zhong Weiling said indifferently: "You don't know either, do you?"

Xie Muppets raised his head: "Don't worry about this, Ah Ling. I have my own considerations. Besides, I am also by your side now. You won't be lonely."

But I want the real you... Zhong Weiling took a deep breath: "Okay, I woke you up, I'm sorry."

When he fell asleep again, Zhong Weiling turned his back to the puppet, and there was no direct contact between the two of them, so that the chill in Zhong Weiling's body broke out again, and in the middle of the night, his whole body was shivering from the cold.

Half a month ago, the situation was not so serious, but now it has reached the point where he cannot restrain himself.

It was a chill extending from the depths of the spiritual veins, which was essentially different from ordinary coolness. It was integrated into every bit of Zhong Weiling's spiritual power, invaded his cultivation, and could not be dispelled.

When he first noticed the strangeness, he had contacted Jiang Ran and asked Jiang Ran if there was any way to dispel the ghost of the fetus.

Jiang Ran didn't know either, he just said that if there was something that could deter these ghostly auras, then nothing would happen.

At present, it seems that only Xie Zhiqin can deter him, but he is not there.

Zhong Weiling curled up his body, and when he was too cold to sleep, a warm current came from his waist.

A little thing rubbed against him, and said softly, "A Ling, I will come back safely, trust me once, okay? Don't be angry."

Zhong Weiling frowned: "I'm not angry."

I can't bear to be angry.

If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't forcefully elevate your cultivation, and you wouldn't force yourself into this situation.

In the end, it's my fault, not yours.

"Then can you turn around and hug me to sleep?" Xie Muppets asked in a low voice.

Zhong Weiling refused, "You're too flustered."

The puppet Xie was shocked: "I can become soft! Although I am made of wood, I carry a ray of consciousness, which is no different from a real person, only smaller."

Zhong Weiling was speechless, turned over, and directly grabbed the puppet Xie's body: "You talk a lot."

Although his body was tightly gripped, Xie Muppets couldn't breathe, but he still said happily: "A Ling, you are finally willing to look back at me."

Zhong Weiling cut his voice: "If you don't tell me what you did, can you tell me how you plan to solve my worries?"

Xie Puppet smiled, and said softly: "It won't work if you say it, but Ah Ling will definitely be satisfied with the result."

Zhong Weiling looked at him, and after a long time said quietly: "I hope so."

The two fell asleep again, and Zhong Weiling had the same dream again, but this time the ending of the dream was different.

In the dream, Xie Zhiqin didn't forget him in the end, he still remembered him...

The puppet Xie lay on the side of Zhong Weiling's neck, and secretly touched Zhong Weiling's lips with his small hand, and a wave of spiritual power poured into Zhong Weiling's body.

After feeling the warmth, Zhong Weiling subconsciously stretched out his arms, and put the puppet on himself, and the Xie puppet snuggled up to Zhong Weiling's neck.

The next morning, when Zhong Weiling woke up, the little puppet got into his clothes somehow, Zhong Weiling took out the Xie puppet, frowned and said, "I said, what are you doing in the middle of the night? I didn't tell you to sleep well, What are you sleeping in my clothes for?"

Xie Muppets wronged: "A Ling stuffed me into my clothes in the middle of the night. I tried to struggle, but it didn't work."

Zhong Weiling: "..."

Just after waking up, Zhong Weiling's mind was still confused, and he was a little confused when he heard the words: "Really?"

Xie Puppet raised his head and said innocently: "Yes."

Although the puppet Xie is not Xie Zhiqin, but with the same skin as Xie Zhiqin, with the same expression as Xie Zhiqin, and the same tone of voice, Zhong Weiling really has nothing to do with him.

"It must be you who seduced me, that's why I stuffed you into my clothes." Zhong Weiling gave him a blank look, turned over and got out of bed, after dressing and washing, looked at the little one on the bed, and asked, "Would you like to wash up too?"

Xie Zhiqin loves cleanliness, but he still has a bit of an obsession with cleanliness. After a night, Xie's puppet's clothes are very messy, and his hair is a little grassy. Zhong Weiling always feels that he can't bear this kind of image of himself.

Xie Muppets thought for a while, and said helplessly: "But my body is too small now, and I don't have any spiritual power. I only have a wisp of spiritual consciousness. I don't think I can wash my face by myself."

Zhong Weiling took out a silk scarf and laughed: "I'll wash it for you, that's all right."

Xie Puppet's eyes lit up: "Can you?"

Zhong Weiling glared at him, grabbed him into the palm of his hand, and tidied up the puppet Xie like he was taking a bath.

However, Xie Puppet's body is too small, and the hair crown is not easy to tie. In the end, Zhong Weiling just braided him a braid casually, and tied the hairband at the end of the hair with a bow.

"Look, how is it?" Zhong Weiling put his "masterpiece" on the table and asked him to face the mirror, satisfied.

The corner of Xie Puppet's mouth twitched, looking at himself in the mirror, he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Why don't you talk, do you like it or not?" Zhong Weiling asked.

Xie Puppet bent his eyes hard: "A Ling made it, of course I like it."

"You don't care about what you said." Zhong Weiling raised his eyebrows, but he didn't continue to talk about this matter, but put the Xie puppet in his arms, and went out.

Yesterday, he asked Li Que to send a message to all the demon sects, ordering all the elders to come to the Demon Lord Hall to gather today, counting the time, it should be coming soon.

After eating, Zhong Weiling took the cold dispelling pill prepared by the doctor, but the physical sensation was not very useful.

But with Xie Puppet by his side, the cold is not unbearable.

On the way to the Devil's Palace, Zhong Weiling repeatedly told Xie Puppet not to move around in his arms, and it was best not to let others discover his existence, otherwise he would not know how to explain it.

"If you are disobedient, I will throw you into the dark portable space and let you stay alone." Zhong Weiling warned.

Xie Muppets hurriedly said: "Of course I don't dare."

When the two arrived at the Demon King's Hall, the elders of the various sects had already arrived.

Although Zhong Weiling didn't say a word, when he directly wiped out those sects parasitized by the demon, the elders were somewhat upset. After all, it's better to discuss such a big matter with them before taking action.

However, within two hours, the inside and outside of the demon clan were cleaned up, and several elders who were about to make an admonition to persuade Zhong Weiling to think twice received the news that the dust had settled before they left the house.

Such swift action is truly astonishing.

But also because of this, several demon elders who had doubts about Zhong Weiling, at this moment almost completely trusted Zhong Weiling again as they did 17 years ago.

The demon clan is different from the fairy sect, they don't pay attention to the rule of virtue, they need a leader who is resolute, has a brain, and can take action.

In fact, the rest of the elders are not unaware of the fact that the heart demon is lurking, but they just don't know where to start for a while.

They had also planned Zhong Weiling's sneak attack this time, but they all gave up in the end, because they couldn't be sure whether it would be successful, and if they failed, or they couldn't wipe out the opponent in the fastest time, they would startle the enemy and give up. The other party's chance to awaken the inner demon will fall short by then.

It is also because of this that they want to come to advise.

As for the exterminated sects getting married with them, this matter is a private matter after all. There were indeed a few elders who were dissatisfied with this matter and wanted to come to Zhong Weiling for an explanation, but they were stopped by others in the end.

Therefore, after the incident, the only person who came to find Zhong Weiling was Lan Bi.

However, this also precisely helped Zhong Weiling distinguish who is available.

The discussion this time is mainly about the heart demon and how to deal with Lan Bi.

Zhong Weiling did not tell everyone about Lan Bi's situation without reservation, after all, it involves Xie Zhiqin.He just said that the demon this time is likely to be the same as the one that disappeared 17 years ago, and once hatched, the ability is very likely to be the most troublesome demon in the history of the demon world.

Although he described it in this way, everyone didn't fight against him personally. They didn't have a specific concept of how tricky it was.

"If we try our best, can we fight against him?" Han Xun asked.

Zhong Weiling squinted his eyes: "17 years ago, in the battle between immortals and demons, the elders represented the strongest combat power under my command, so, dare to ask, in the matter of killing Wen Yuan, what was the relationship with Yundu?" How is Xie Zhiqin's contribution divided?"

Han Xun didn't know why he asked such a question, but he still answered truthfully: "I'll add them up, and we'll share seven or three with Master Xie."

Together, the three of Han Xun and the others could barely draw with Xie Zhiqin, and the combination of the seven top demon elders could overwhelm Xie Zhiqin.

This is also the reason why the elders of the Demon Race are so afraid of Xie Zhiqin.

Han Xundao: "If the power of the heart demon is similar to that of Xie Xianshi, then I think even if it reaches the worst point, there should be no way out."

The rest of the elders also nodded.

Wen Ruoqian took a sip of tea, and sneered: "But all the elders met only an immortal master Xie who was born with a great perfection, but now the immortal master Xie is already a great fit."

Han Xun pondered for a moment, and said: "Although Xianshi Xie has advanced, we have also advanced in the past 17 years. With all the strength of the seven of us, we should still be able to cope with it."

Although the ability of the heart demon may be the strongest in history, the elders of this generation should not be underestimated.

It's just... Zhong Weiling chuckled lightly, propped his head on one hand and said, "What if the power of inner demon is more powerful than the big body?"

Everyone was stunned and fell silent for a while.

After a long time, Meng Qianqiu said: "His Royal Highness compares with Master Xie. I think the power of the heart demon is very likely to be equal to that of Master Xie this time. But with all due respect, although Master Xie is in the stage of great integration, the level of spiritual power that erupted on the snow field last time , It’s not as simple as just a big fit, I think it’s a bit overpowering to measure our ability.”

After the Xueyuan incident ended, the rumors about Xie Zhiqin continued, and according to eyewitnesses' descriptions, that level of spiritual power was indeed, as Meng Qianqiu said, far beyond that of a great fit.

Han Xun said displeased: "Meng Qianqiu, what do you mean? Do you also think that we will repeat the mistakes of our predecessors, and we can only end this matter with the death of the devil and the demon?"

For Tiandao, the appearance of a demon is like a reincarnation, but for the demons, the appearance of a demon almost heralds the death of the demon king.

Meng Qianqiu said in a deep voice: "It's not interesting, I just think we should recognize the reality. Although we have all advanced now, compared with when Wen Yuan was in power, our combat power is still slightly inferior, and we don't have 34 Deadpool , back then Wen Yuan was helpless against demons, do you think we can do it?"

An elder frowned and said, "Meng Qianqiu, that's an exaggeration."

Meng Qianqiu retorted: "It's not an exaggeration, it's because His Highness is pregnant and unsuitable for combat, and..." Meng Qianqiu knew that Zhong Weiling's body was starting to have a cold, so she wanted to say it subconsciously, but then swallowed it back, "In short , although His Highness is stronger than Wen Yuan, His Highness is still alone after all, I think we should focus on how to kill the demon before it hatches, not discuss how to fight after he hatches."

Han Xundao: "Don't you understand if you plan ahead? If you don't take precautions earlier, we will start after the demons hatch, and then it will be too late."

Meng Qianqiu pointedly said: "The truth is correct, but how to implement it? If we want to prevent, we must first know the opponent's combat strength and take targeted precautions. But only after the heart demon hatches, we will know its strength. After the demon hatches, it’s too late to guard against it. This is a paradox! Even if you rely on guesswork to guard against it now, let me ask, if the ability of the demon in your heart is as good as that of Master Xie, how can you defend against it?”

When several elders were about to make a proposal, Meng Qianqiu took the lead and said: "Let's talk about it first, at that time in the snowfield, Xie Zhiqin burned all the skeleton soldiers in the snowfield without any effort, and the biggest skeleton was at least ten thousand years old." With a cultivation level above, there is no power to fight back against Shang Xie Zhiqin's strange fire."

Those elders who were about to say their plans glanced at each other, but finally closed their mouths unwillingly.

"Although I really don't want to offend everyone, I think it's necessary for me to interject." Wen Ruoqian said, "The reason why we were able to destroy the sect parasitized by the heart demon within two hours is all thanks to Immortal Master Xie. "

Meng Qianqiu was taken aback for a moment, but soon there was a clear expression on his face, and he murmured in a low voice: "I just said, although Shengjun and Li Que are indeed powerful, but not all the people under their command are like you. Such a big move within hours, that's why."

The rest of the elders were surprised.

Wen Ruoqian said: "I am Elder Meng, and I also feel that now that we know that the source of the demons lies in Lan Bi, we should focus on how to control the hatching of the demons. After all, when the demons appear, we will The probability is that you can't guard against it, you can only be hanged and beaten."

An elder curiously said: "Everyone is discussing how to defend against a demon who is as powerful as Xie Zhiqin, but isn't Xie Zhiqin also one of us? If we can't beat it, it doesn't mean that Xie Zhiqin can't. With his help, I think we There should be no chance of winning."

Zhong Weiling frowned, and said coldly: "He is married to me, but I don't intend to let him do anything."

Han Xun was curious: "Why?"

One is that he is afraid that Xie Zhiqin will lose control again, and the other is that the inner demon has lived with Xie Zhiqin for so many years, so he must know Xie Zhiqin's heart very well. If Xie Zhiqin takes advantage of the time when Xie Zhiqin loses control and sneaks in and parasitizes Xie Zhiqin, the consequences will be disastrous.

Zhong Weiling looked at Han Xun, and said calmly: "Because of the advanced integration, Xie Zhiqin's spiritual consciousness has been unstable, and he needs to rest for a long time. If he forcibly activates his spiritual power, he may be taken advantage of by the demons." If we enter, then we will really have no chance of winning."

Xie Muppets, who was hiding in Zhong Weiling's arms, heard this and moved slightly, but was held down by Zhong Weiling immediately.

Zhong Weiling said via voice transmission: "Don't move, or you will be thrown into the pond outside."

There was only Xie Zhiqin's spiritual consciousness in this puppet, and he thought it had no spiritual power, so when he heard the puppet's sound transmission, Zhong Weiling couldn't help being taken aback.

"Don't throw me, I just don't move, but I don't think I will be taken advantage of by demons, you guys are thinking too much." Xie Muppets said.

Zhong Weiling frowned: "Then do you know that the fragment deep in the heart demon's memory is you?"

Xie Puppet was stunned: "Me?"

Zhong Weiling said: "That's right, so why do you think I should use you as an example?" Zhong Weiling was afraid that he would go into a strange corner again, and added, "But don't think too much, I know I don't blame you, you should They are all settings imposed on you by that guy Lian Qing, but because you have been deliberately suppressing this setting and cannot merge with it, that setting itself will be stripped from you with the awakening of the world and become a separate individual .”

After a moment of silence, Xie Muppets blamed himself: "So, without me, he wouldn't appear, right?"

Zhong Weiling: "..."

The next moment, an unknown thing flew out of the hall with a wave of devilish energy. The speed was too fast for everyone to see clearly.

The magic soldiers sweeping outside the door were a little confused when they saw the splashing water in the pond.

It seemed like something had fallen in.

The magic soldiers hurried to fish, but they didn't get anything.

Here, in the Demon Lord's Palace, everyone was muttering in low voices about what flew out.

Zhong Weiling clenched his fists and coughed dryly: "It's nothing, just keep talking."

Although Zhong Weiling regretted throwing the puppet Xie into the pond, but who made him talk nonsense and take the blame on himself.

In the end, after discussing for a long time, they didn't come up with any strategies on how to deal with the hatched demons. After all, they couldn't even kill Xie Zhiqin, let alone kill the formed demons.

However, several methods were discussed to restrain the hatching of demons.

In the end, Meng Qianqiu's method was chosen.

Using the magic heart stone and sea keel in the secret realm of the demon realm to form a formation, combined with the power of the elders of the demon clan, create a dream, and use Meng Qianqiu's nightmare demon to enter the dream, and introduce Lan Bi into the dream, so as to weaken the power of the demon as much as possible. Of course, it would be better if it could be directly removed in one fell swoop.

Although because of the original text, Zhong Weiling didn't have a good impression of the sea area, but the current situation did not allow him to choose.

Originally, Meng Qianqiu wanted to go instead of him, but considering the sea area plot in the original text, Zhong Weiling felt that it would be safer to go in person.

After the crowd dispersed, Meng Qianqiu stayed behind, as if he still had something to say to Zhong Weiling.

Zhong Weiling hurriedly went out to find the puppet Xie in the pool, seeing that Meng Qianqiu had not left for a long time, he asked, "Is there anything else?"

Meng Qianqiu glanced left and right, and after confirming that there was no one nearby, she whispered: "Not long before the warning order was issued last night, I seem to have seen my father."

Zhong Weiling frowned: "Didn't the ancestors die a long time ago?"

Meng Qianqiu said: "It's strange here. My father died a long time ago, but I saw him last night. I thought it was haunted."

Zhong Weiling: "Did you read it wrong?"

Meng Qianqiu said firmly: "Absolutely not! Our succubi clan's innate blood sense can't be wrong, it is indeed my father."

"Besides, the same situation happened to several other old guys, but because they were not too sure, and they were afraid of being said to be suspicious. After all, it is an established fact that people cannot be resurrected after death, so I didn't dare to reveal it today. The above said, just ask me to ask in secret." Meng Qianqiu lowered his voice, "We all discovered the anomaly last night, it doesn't seem like a coincidence, and not long after the anomaly appeared, His Highness sent someone to issue a warning order, so, I don’t know if the same thing happened in Geyue Mountain?”

Zhong Weiling glanced at him and hummed.

"After sunset, the dead return," Zhong Weiling narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Both Wen Ruoqian and Li Que saw traces of the existence of Sang Ling'er and Mu Ran."

Meng Qianqiu asked: "Does Your Highness have any thoughts on this matter?"

"Not yet, but I think it may be related to the inner demon." Zhong Weiling said.

Meng Qianqiu's complexion was not very good: "If that's the case, then there are some troubles." Meng Qianqiu paused, then changed the subject, and asked, "How is Master Xie recently?"

"You don't know him well, why ask this?" Zhong Weiling was curious.

Meng Qianqiu said: "He borrowed a Nightmare Demon from me yesterday, saying that he needed it urgently, so he was curious about what he was doing recently."

Zhong Weiling frowned: "He went to see you yesterday?"

Meng Qianqiu hummed: "But I borrowed the Nightmare Demon and left, and I haven't seen anyone since then." Meng Qianqiu felt that something was wrong and asked, "Doesn't Your Highness know that he came to find me?"

Zhong Weiling didn't answer, but said: "If there is any news about him, please notify me immediately."

After Meng Qianqiu agreed, she left.

Zhong Weiling hurriedly went to the pond to get the puppet Xie, but after searching around and asking the magic soldiers who had just cleaned it, he didn't find any trace of the puppet Xie.

Shouldn't it be lost?Although this is not the real Xie Zhiqin, but it is not much different from Xie Zhiqin, Zhong Weiling glanced at the pond irritably, he should not have thrown him out.

Zhong Weiling went to all the places where the puppet Xie might be, but he still didn't find it.

Just when Zhong Weiling didn't know where else to look for it, Su Yang, who was guarding the dungeon, suddenly opened a sound transmission array to him.

"Your Highness, something strange has appeared on the source of the demons."

Strange thing... Zhong Weiling thought of what Xie Muppets said before he was thrown out, and his heart twitched.

This guy wouldn't be the same as Xie Zhiqin, would he?

No, his consciousness is indeed the same as that of Xie Zhiqin.

Zhong Weiling cursed in his heart, and immediately went to the dungeon.

As soon as I entered, I saw a blood-red mist. The mist condensed into a barrier, and everyone else was blocked out.

"It's the spirit of the inner demon." Zhong Weiling was stunned.

In the mist, Zhong Weiling vaguely saw two figures, two identical figures, with the same moves and movements.

Although the mist is powerful, it is nothing to Zhong Weiling, and in the middle of the gesture, a wave of devilish energy is cut out, splitting the mist directly.

"Xie Zhiqin!" Zhong Weiling was just worried at first, and subconsciously shouted, but the two figures turned their heads at the same time.

The red-clothed black-haired man, although his appearance is exactly the same as Xie Zhiqin's, but his eyes are blood-red and his complexion is pale. When he turned his head, a gentle but sinister smile burst from his mouth.

But the next moment, a streak of black spiritual power slashed directly, and the violent impact exploded between Zhong Weiling and the figure.

When the smoke dissipated, the separated figure disappeared, leaving only another semi-transparent figure in white.

The man turned his head and looked at Zhong Weiling, the corners of his eyes were cracked with scarlet, and his eyelids drooped slightly: "I'm sorry for messing up your place, I didn't plan to do anything, I just wanted to find out what he and I are relation."

Zhong Weiling frowned, and said coldly: "You are not the same person, nor is he split from you."

If his guess is correct, the one just now should be the inner demon hidden in Lan Hee's body.

The inner demon can follow the human heart and desires to create an illusion that belongs to itself, but it cannot change its appearance, and the original appearance is inherited from the person who first made it.

The appearance of the demon is exactly the same as that of Xie Zhiqin, and the deepest memory fragments of the source of the demon almost completely overlap with Xie Zhiqin's memory before the age of 17, which means that the source of the demon's first appearance is Xie Zhiqin.

However, Zhong Weiling could not be bothered to say: "You are you, he is him."

Xie Zhiqin's consciousness began to fade gradually: "I know, but..." Xie Zhiqin said halfway, with a look of disappointment on his brows, but in a breath, he became relieved again, "I'm just afraid that Ah Ling will see that he looks like me , I’m really on the right track, I won’t be able to do it, so I want to deal with him first.”

Zhong Weiling: "..."

It does sound like Xie Zhiqin's style, but if there is no other reason, or if he is not provoked, he will not take action on his own territory without his consent.

There must be other reasons.

However, just when Zhong Weiling was about to ask, Xie Zhiqin's consciousness suddenly dissipated completely, and finally turned into a ray of spiritual light and returned to the puppet lying on the ground.

Perhaps it was due to the consumption of too much spiritual consciousness just now, at this moment, the puppet's limbs began to become stiff, and finally turned into the original wooden appearance.
