744 Become a Demon?
The white-robed young man scanned Lin Qiye and the red spider lily’s data and suddenly thought of a possibility.
“That guy used the Divine Weapon to obtain the demonic power?”
Once this thought popped out, it couldn’t be stopped.
In the eyes of the white-robed young man, Meng Tu wouldn’t betray the human race. The person he was protecting definitely wouldn’t side with the demons.
He then thought about what he had heard about Lin Qiye being with Meng Tu.
However, Lin Qiye was nowhere to be found in the current scan.
On the way here, Wei Tong and the others had shared information about Lin Qiye with the white-robed young man.
He knew Lin Qiye had killed a demon not much weaker than him, so he was sure Lin Qiye would not die easily.
So, the biggest possibility was that he wasn’t dead, but the unknown guy emitting the demonic power was him!
Lin Qiye’s information was easy to find.
Although the white-robed young man was amazed by his rapid growth, he also realized Lin Qiye had never revealed anything related to demons.
Right now, the demonic power in his body was no different from that of a real demon, and it was likely because of that unknown Divine Weapon.
Thinking about it this way, the white-robed young man suddenly felt that Meng Tu staying behind to protect Lin Qiye was barely justifiable.
To prevent the Divine Weapon from falling into the hands of the demon, the two had to fight.
Or rather, that item belonged to the demon, and after the two discovered it, they wanted to join forces to snatch it.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. The white-robed young man gradually found it difficult to sit still.
If only Meng Tu, Lin Qiye, and King Tuo Ni were inside…
With the manpower they had now, it was totally enough to snatch the Divine Weapon from their hands!
After all, even a top-notch Half-Supreme could not take advantage of five hundred powerhouses at the later stage of the Celestial Realm.
Moreover, the three people inside seemed to have been fighting for a long time.
This was undoubtedly the best opportunity to rush in and snatch it.
After looking at the data, a Practitioner at the peak of the Celestial Realm seemed to have a similar guess as the white-robed young man.
He looked at the white-robed young man with excitement.
“Captain, the unidentified guy inside is most likely Lin Qiye! I feel that his transformation is likely related to that Divine Weapon!”
The white-robed youth’s expression was solemn as he fell into deep thought.
Seeing no response, the speaker could not help but anxiously say, “Captain! Now was the best chance! If we wait any longer, I’m afraid we could not get it when the other forces arrive first!”
The person who spoke was anxious because he had just received news that the people who had come to seize the Divine Weapon were not Supremes, but Guard Eleven, who was at the same level as the white-robed young man.
As the Hall Master’s youngest personal guard, even though she was slightly stronger than the white-robed young man, she was still only a Half-Supreme.
The Heavenly Court Island wasn’t afraid of the local forces, but they wouldn’t go to war with their own just for a Divine Weapon.
On this aspect, the native forces held the opposite attitude.
It was like a rich man and a greedy beggar seeing a priceless gem at the same time.
The wealthy would not risk their lives for gemstones, but beggars are ready to kill the moment someone approached the gemstones.
In the face of this situation, only when the rich showed their absolute power could they suppress the greed in the beggar’s heart. For example, dozens of tall and burly bodyguards.
This was what the group from Heavenly Court Island had been thinking.
As long as they reported the news of the Divine Weapon, the Supreme would descend.
However, the truth was that the Supreme would not come at all.
Without the dozens of tall and strong bodyguards, the newcomer was just an unremarkable child.
The white-robed young man pondered for a long time before he finally raised his head. His eyes flickered slightly.
“Inform the others to prepare for action!
“The target is to seize the Divine Weapon before the local forces arrive!”
“Yes!”
Seeing that the white-robed young man had finally made his decision, the speaker’s face lit up with joy, and he quickly responded.
The white-robed young man glanced in the direction of Wei Tong and the others and let out an undetectable sigh.
He didn’t want to trigger a war between his own kind, but he also didn’t want to lose the Divine Weapon.
The only way was to get the Divine Weapon first!
If they obtained the Divine Weapon, the other forces would have no reason to attack.
Snatching an ownerless item and snatching something that already belonged to someone else were two different concepts.
One was a normal competition, while the other was a bandit’s behavior.
Anyone would have to think twice before doing so.
If Wei Tong and the others dared to stop them, they would become the sacrificial lambs to prevent an all-out war.
Outside the domain’s barrier, Wei Tong and the other military personnel gathered and whispered to each other. Suddenly, they saw the people from Heavenly Court Island approaching the barrier.
“General, I’m afraid they can’t sit still any longer. Should we follow them?” Someone asked.
Wei Tong looked at the people from Heavenly Court Island and then at the other local factions of the southern warzone.
She then shook his head and said, “Don’t act rashly for now.”
...
“But there are so many of them moving together. They’ll likely get the Divine Weapon first!”
“That’s right, General. The reinforcements haven’t arrived yet, so there must be some new information about Heavenly Court Island’s sudden operation! If we wait longer, I’m afraid we won’t even get a chance to pick up the leftovers!”
A few of the military personnel were anxious.
Ever since they had been separated from Heavenly Court Island, they had been kept in the dark.
