Yu Qiao went silent for a moment and shook her head. "Except for calling himself a Devil Emperor, he didn't say anything further. In fact, the interaction between us was a few seconds."
Yun Lintian nodded slightly. "From what I see, he doesn't seem to place any restriction on both of you."
"No. But you will understand once you meet him. He possesses absolute strength. Even without a restriction, we don't dare to betray him." Yu Qiao explained.
"Where is he now?" Yun Lintian asked.
"No idea." Yu Qiao shook her head.
Meanwhile, Gu Wei suddenly said. "He should have already left this place."
"If I guess correctly, it was his idea to bring me here, right?" Yun Lintian asked.
Yu Qiao replied admittedly. "Yes. He said that you will definitely ask about the Devil Wheel."
"Without a doubt, it should be Mo Tian's avatar." Hongyue's voice resounded in Yun Lintian's mind.
"Looks like he's very powerful." Yun Lintian frowned slightly.
"It's the Devil God Emperor's avatar, after all," Hongyue said. "Now I doubt whether it's just a coincidence for him to come here through the spatial turbulence."
"Why didn't he take the Spatial Wheel away?" Yun Lintian asked in doubt. "I mean, he should have a way to deal with it, right?"
"Although this Spatial Wheel is several times weaker than the past, it is the second most powerful relic at the end of the day. Even his true self cannot do anything about it. Let alone his avatar." Hongyue explained.
She glanced at the Spatial Wheel that was busy absorbing the Soul Energy. "I cannot detect any spiritual consciousness inside. Maybe it acts on its own."
Yun Lintian looked at the Spatial Wheel briefly before turning toward Yu Qiao and Gu Wei. "Now I have two choices for both of you. One is to guard this place for me. And another is death."
"Of course, I choose the first one." Yu Qiao answered without thinking.
On the contrary, Gu Wei frowned and said. "Tell me your true purpose."
Yun Lintian chuckled. "Senior Gu, do you think you have the upper hand here? Did you also ask that Devil Emperor like this?"
Gu Wei's face darkened, but he had nothing to refute.
"Just stay here." Yun Lintian said and glanced at Lei Yongzheng. "I'll leave them to you, Senior Lei."
At the same time, he sent a sound transmission to the latter. "Senior, there are three people lurking here. They seem to be Abyssal Beasts. You have to be on guard."
Lei Yongzheng was slightly surprised and nodded. "Understood."
Yun Lintian turned to look at the Spatial Wheel again. Through the Eyes of Heaven, he could see a massive amount of spatial power within it.
Yun Lintian didn't consider it further and jumped toward the Spatial Wheel. His action startled everyone in the scene.
The Spatial Wheel seemed to sense someone approaching. It quickly released powerful spatial energy, trying to eliminate Yun Lintian.
Just as everyone thought Yun Lintian would be killed, they suddenly saw a gorgeous crown appear on his head, and Yun Lintian's figure could easily shuttle through the dense spatial energy without harm.
The Spatial Wheel seemed to be frightened by Yun Lintian's abnormality. It suddenly broke the space, creating a spatial rift and trying to escape.
However, before it could slip into the rift, Yun Lintian had already reached out to catch it firmly. At the same time, he didn't forget to borrow the crown's power to calm the wheel down.
The Spatial Wheel struggled hard, trying to get rid of Yun Lintian's grasp, but it was futile. Soon, it slowly calmed down under the crown's power and stopped struggling completely.
Yun Lintian looked at the black wheel in his hand in doubt. He thought the Spatial Wheel would be the hardest to obtain, but it didn't seem to be the case.
"No wonder. It has exhausted too much energy during these years. That's why it came here to absorb the Soul Energy." Hongyue stared at the wheel and said. "Hurry up and absorb it."
Yun Lintian didn't think about it further and drew the energy inside the Spatial Wheel to him.
Meanwhile, Linlin and Qingqing quickly jumped off Yun Lintian's shoulders and stood guard around him.
Seeing this scene, Lei Yongzheng and the others went silent immediately. They could clearly see that Yun Lintian was absorbing the wheel. It was something they couldn't believe it was real.
The Devil Wheel was the scariest existence in this place. Anyone who came across it would die miserably. However, Yun Lintian could actually subdue it at ease… How could he do it? What was going on here?
In the distance, the masked woman and the other two were stunned by the scene.
"He… He is that person our Master talked about?" The petite woman said in astonishment.
The masked woman turned to look at the man and asked. "What's Master's instruction?"
"We will withdraw. Master is ready to go out now." The man said solemnly.
"Are we going to let him take the wheel away?" The masked woman asked in doubt.
She knew how obsessed her Master was with the Devil Wheel. Otherwise, he wouldn't spend all his time here trying to subdue it… How could he let it go just like that?
"Come back." Suddenly, an aged voice resounded in her mind, making her shudder slightly.
"Understood, Master." The masked woman hurriedly responded. She stared at Yun Lintian briefly before leaving the scene with her comrades.
"Eh?" Qingqing suddenly frowned and said to Linlin. "Big Sis, they are running away now. Should we chase after them?"
Linlin shook her head. "It doesn't matter. Our job right now is to guard Big Brother Yun."
"Oh." Qingqing nodded and nibbled a rice pancake while looking in the masked woman's group leaving direction.
At this moment, Gu Wei's eyes flickered slightly as he watched Yun Lintian absorb the wheel's power. He secretly sent a sound transmission to Yu Qiao. "What's your opinion?"
Yu Qiao frowned and secretly glanced at Lei Yongzheng. "The chance of us escaping here is as close as zero. You better stand here honestly… Of course, if you want to leave, you can go alone. I won't join you this time."
Gu Wei's face turned cold as he asked. "Have you forgotten the mission he gave us?"
Yu Qiao curled her lips. "What about it? Can you do anything? If you want to blame, you should blame him for not telling us about Yun Lintian clearly."
