Hearing this, Hua Xin's face twitched involuntarily.
"Good guy, you are praising yourself in a different way!"
Although she was complaining in her heart, Hua Xin did not dare to show it at all. At the moment, she could only hold her hands in fear and say:
"I don't dare to praise you in front of my seniors."
Luo Hong did not mean to ridicule Hua Xin. He did not include himself in the comparison. After all, his cultivation speed was due to countless opportunities and his unique cultivation method.
Even those sons of destiny who are loved by heaven will not be as exaggerated as him!
"Okay, you don't have to be so reserved.
Back then, although you almost took my life, you couldn't take any advantage in the end.
I never like to bully the small with the big, so now I will spare your life."
Seeing him looking like he was being slaughtered, Luo Hong immediately waved his hand and spoke in a calm tone.
When the other Wood Clan monks heard this, their jaws almost dropped. They immediately looked at Hua Xin with disbelief, secretly thinking that their leader could be so capable!
They had no idea that Luo Hong back then wanted to call Hua Xin a senior.
"Thank you, senior! Can I leave now, junior?"
At a critical moment of life and death, Hua Xin would not pay attention to the expressions of her subordinates. Now that she realized that Luo Hong had no intention of killing her, she couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Of course not. I don't care about the personal grudges between you and me, but have you forgotten the current relationship between the Wood clan and my clan?"
Although Luo Hong has no murderous intentions towards Hua Xin, it does not mean that he will let her go easily.
After all, what he needs to do now would be much easier if there was a Silver-level Wood Clan to help him!
"I understand. I wonder what I, the junior, can do for my senior?"
After her pretty face turned pale, Hua Xin realized that she might not be able to escape punishment this time, and immediately gave her away.
"Fellow Daoist Hua appeared in the Floating Light Forest with injuries all those years ago. It must be because of some dissatisfaction within the Wood Clan, right?"
However, Luo Hong did not say anything clearly at the moment. Instead, he changed the topic and talked about the past.
Hua Xin's expression suddenly changed when she heard this. She had realized that the reason why Luo Hong mentioned this matter must be because what the other party wanted her to do would greatly affect the interests of the Wood Clan!
"Fellow Hua Daoist, you don't have to deny that you were able to retreat to the Floating Light Forest to heal your injuries, obviously because the Wood Clan couldn't go back at that time.
I believe that you must have some complaints in your heart."
To be sent out to carry out such a dangerous mission to ambush the Demon Lord, Hua Xin obviously has no background in the Wood Clan, and his status is probably equivalent to that of the ascended monks of the Human Clan back then.
In addition, this woman has already suffered from strife within the Mu clan, so Luo Hong does not believe that she would be willing to be buried with the Mu clan!
"Senior, please speak frankly. If it can be done, I will do my best!"
After hearing these words, Hua Xin didn't take any chances at all and agreed immediately.
"I want to seize a sacred tree of the Wood Clan, but I need the help of someone who knows everything about the Wood Clan."
Luo Hong didn't shy away from it at the moment and directly stated his purpose.
As he advanced to the early stage of Mahayana, the original Luosheng Pan was no longer of use, and if he wanted to refine it again, he had to use top-quality spiritual wood.
The Sacred Tree of the Wood Clan contains the blood of Tongtian Jianmu. No matter from any angle, it is the most suitable existence!
"Senior, you want to seize a preliminary sacred tree?
It's impossible. All holy trees are stored in forbidden areas and are personally overseen by the great elder.
Even if the senior has unparalleled spiritual knowledge, he would never be able to break into the forbidden area with thousands of troops and take away the holy tree from the hands of the great elder!"
Although Hua Xin had already known that Luo Hong, as a Mahayana monk, must have great intentions, she still couldn't help being shocked when she actually found out.
The rest of the Wood Clan monks were pale at this moment, wishing that they were not deaf and blind!
After all, in addition to the real holy tree, the Wood Clan also has more than forty small holy trees that were unable to be cultivated due to resource constraints.
But each one of them is a supreme treasure that the Wood Clan will never trade with outsiders.
Therefore, if they help outsiders attack those little holy trees, they will be committing the most serious crime of treason!
"Fellow Hua Daoist doesn't have to worry about it. How to enter the forbidden area and how to deal with the noble elders, I have my own plan.
If you agree now, let go of your soul and let me place restrictions, otherwise..."
After looking at the trembling flower core, Luo Hong couldn't help but smile and said:
"I will not break my promise and kill you, but I will use some means to forcefully control you. Then you will still have to do things for me.
The demons are coming soon, you only have ten breaths of time to think about it."
"Haha, it turns out that the result is the same whether the junior chooses or not."
Although Hua Xin was confused just now, she thought she had some leverage in front of Luo Hong.
But now she realizes that those were all her illusions!
"There is still a difference. If you are willing, I can save some effort and the chance of success will be a little greater."
Luo Hong immediately comforted him.
"No need for ten breaths. This junior is willing to serve my senior, but I only hope that after my senior's achievements are completed, I can allow this junior to have a place among the human and demon clans!"
Hua Xin knew very well that if she was stubborn, she would definitely end up being used and then abandoned.
When the time comes, because she has actually rebelled against her clan, she will definitely become a wandering monk with no clan to rely on.
With her current level of cultivation, the outcome will definitely not be any better!
"Elder Hua, no! How can you agree to such a request!"
Hearing this, those in the Wood Clan's refining realm were sure that someone would stab them.
However, Hua Xin ignored this person at the moment, but raised her head and looked at Luo Hong.
"You handle it yourself and just leave a few behind. Otherwise, if you go back alone, you will inevitably arouse suspicion.
As for your conditions, the Zhiyang realm under my jurisdiction is vast and sparsely populated, so it needs high-level monks like you."
Luo Hong immediately hinted that while Hua Xin had dealt with the diehard elements, he also agreed to her conditions.
"Mu Feng, Mu Ming, and you two, are all the Su family's spies on me, right?
If we end up in such a situation, the Su family will probably bear most of the responsibility..."
Turning around, Hua Xin immediately divided the surviving Mu Clan Lianxu into two factions. The minority was from the Su family, while the majority was from casual cultivators who had been in a similar situation to her.
So in a few words, those Mu Clan Lianxu felt that such a sacrifice was not worth it, and their resistance to the matter of treason was greatly reduced.
"I dare to ask senior, if it is really only a small sacred tree?"
At this time, someone suddenly had the courage to ask Luo Hong.
"I still need to lie to you?"
Luo Hong asked immediately.
Although it is true that directly seizing the sacred tree can save a lot of trouble, because these sacred trees of the Wood tribe require a lot of earth vein power to be cultivated into useful materials, the adult sacred trees have long been connected to the surrounding earth veins. Not only are they very difficult to move, but they are also forcibly pulled out.
Going out will seriously damage his vitality.
Therefore, for Luo Hong, instead of taking away an adult holy tree to help him regain his strength, it is better to cultivate a small holy tree by himself.
After all, he had no shortage of territory, and he also had the secret technique to gather the power of the earth veins. If he asked Old Demon Han to help, he would be able to obtain an adult holy tree in a short time.
It is also worth mentioning that although the adult holy tree is of great help to the cultivation of the Wood Clan monks, its growth characteristics also make the Wood Clan's territorial ambitions extremely huge.
The reason why the Demon Clan will take the Wood Clan as their main attack direction this time is because the Wood Clan is weak, and the second reason is because the Wood Clan occupies a territory second only to the Yaksha Clan.
As long as the Demon Clan captures the entire Wood Clan, they will gain a large foothold.
In this way, the demon clan's subsequent strategy will be much smoother!
"If this is the case, then the junior is also willing to serve the senior."
Upon hearing this, Lianxu of the Mu clan seemed to have let go of the last knot in his heart and agreed with his hands.
Although this feels like a joke, only when you actually encounter it will you understand that this is not just a joke.
With the first one, the rest will naturally fall into place.
When those diehards saw that the situation was not right, they quickly wanted to flee.
But the rest of the Mu Clan Lianxu has been staring at them. Now that they moved, they were attacked from all directions.
After a roar, there was no more strange sound among these Wood Clan monks.
Then, Luo Hong placed a ban on them and sent them into the Netherworld Cave.
At this time, five black spots appeared on the horizon. Luo Hong did not restrain his breath when he saw this, and immediately faced them.
After a while, the two sides met in the air and showed their bodies together.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, I didn't expect that you have become an advanced Mahayana after not seeing each other for just a few decades. I am really happy and congratulated!"
As soon as they met, the old man among the five, who was wearing a dark green robe and had strangely long eyes, congratulated Luo Hong.
"Fellow Daoist Luo was able to defeat the five of us with one against five, so he was able to survive the true thunder tribulation.
However, to have reached this stage in just a few decades is really beyond Niu’s expectation!”
Immediately, the big man in golden armor on the side also sighed.
"Haha, it's just a fluke that Luo is not as famous as the five Taoist friends who have been famous for many years."
It turned out that these five people were the incarnations of the five saint ancestors who had a battle with Luo Hong in front of the Tianling Passage.
The old man in green robe is the old ghost She, and the man in golden armor is the old devil Niu!
"Fellow Daoist Luo, just now we discovered in the camp that there are spiritual fluctuations caused by Mahayana monks fighting against each other. Have you met a fellow Taoist from the Yaksha tribe?"
At this time, Fairy Ling fluttered her wings and stepped forward, asking with a cold expression.
"It is true that I met a black Taoist friend from the Yaksha Clan, but how come the fairy is definitely not the great elder of the Wood Clan?"
After Luo Hong nodded, he asked with a little doubt.
"Gee, Fellow Daoist Luo doesn't know that the great elder of the Wood Clan cannot leave the front line for a moment.
As soon as he leaves, our Holy Clan’s army will immediately wipe out their defenses and directly capture more than half of the Wood Clan’s territory!”
With just a sweet smile, the petite witch answered Luo Hong's doubts.
"Well, that's right. In the original time and space, when Old Demon Han came back from the Demon Realm, the Wood Clan was at the end of its rope and could only rely on the Thirty-Six Absolute Formations of the Wood Realm as a last-ditch effort!
And I’m about a hundred years ahead of schedule, so I haven’t reached the time when the Wood Clan collapsed for the first time!”
After thinking about it, Luo Hong immediately had a general understanding of the current battle situation.
"Haha, since Fellow Daoist Luo can stay here and wait for us to come, he must have not suffered a loss in the confrontation with the Black Owl King.
Although the Black Owl King is not a powerful character, Fellow Daoist Luo can do this just after he advanced to Mahayana, so he is proud enough!"
Hearing this, Old Ghost She couldn't help but speculate.
"Yes, Lao Niu is really convinced this time! Haha!"
The big man in golden armor also echoed at this time.
"Haha, fellow Taoist Niu is already convinced.
That Black Owl King fought hard, but he humiliated our human race without knowing whether to live or die. Luo Mou, in a rage, had already killed him!"
When Luo Hong heard this, he chuckled lightly at first, and then suddenly said with a cold look.
"What! Fellow Daoist Luo, you are not joking!"
The old ghost She's hand stroking his beard suddenly stopped, and then he said with a shocked look on his face.
"Yes... yes, you can't talk nonsense!"
The big man in golden armor immediately swallowed his saliva and stuttered a little.
"Luo Mou would not joke about this kind of thing. In order to destroy it, Luo Mou also paid a lot of price."
With that said, Luo Hong waved his hand and waved out a cloud of black mist.
The next moment, the Black Owl King's big head with deathly eyes rolled out.
Luo Hong left this body to feed the Netherworld Cave Heaven, which was just in time to be used as evidence.
"He really is the Black King!"
Seeing this scene, Fairy Ling's frosty face couldn't help but change color.
"It's broken, it's broken now!"
However, after being shocked, the petite witch couldn't help herself.
The other four people's faces darkened when they heard this, as if they were in big trouble.
"What's wrong? Could it be that Luo ruined some of your plans?"
Luo Hong knew that they could not regret the death of the Black Owl King, so the demons must have made some plan related to the Black Owl King, which was why they showed such expressions after learning about his death.
"Fellow Daoist Luo, although it was a great achievement for you to kill the enemy, it was not at the right time.
This is not a place for talking. If it is convenient, please come back to the camp with us."
Now that things have come to this, no matter how upset it is, it is useless. Old She She can only sigh.
"Well, Luo is about to do something with the help of the nobles, so please ask fellow Taoists to lead the way."
The reason why Luo Hong is here waiting for the demon monks to come is to take advantage of the situation and go to the demon camp.
Although there are some unexpected developments at the moment, its purpose will not change.
As soon as he finished speaking, the five old ghosts from She turned into five rays of light with different colors and fled towards the way they came.
Judging from their silence, it was obvious that they were really anxious.
"Is it possible that I really sabotaged their grand strategy and that they paid so much attention to it?"
After muttering something in his mind, Luo Hong immediately followed.
In this way, after flying for half an hour, and using several teleportation formations to transfer, the group arrived at the majestic demon camp.
Before Luo Hong could take a second look, he was taken to an underground palace surrounded by many restrictions by the five Shelaoguis.
