. . so long as they obstruct me from rescuing Venerable Ling, I would not mind sealing them together within the Primordial Eggshell! If that person is sensible and leaves of their own accord when I rescue Venerable Ling, without resisting me—" Yet though he spoke thus, Shen Mu's heart was convulsing.
The Primordial Eggshells no longer existed. When he revived the World Tree, the World Tree had shattered both Primordial Eggshells to pieces and devoured them as energy! "It seems I still need to fabricate two eggshells to frighten the Grand Emperor. " He thought to himself: "If the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit takes my bluff, perhaps he will not dare to clash head-on with me.
Otherwise, rescuing Venerable Ling may well be a bloody battle.
. .
" The Grand Emperor's primordial spirit, plus Tai Chu's physical body—it was simply an unsolvable situation!
If he could frighten off the Grand Emperor's primordial spirit and win without fighting, that would naturally be best. But the greatest variable was not Consort Qiang, but Venerable Xiao.
Tai Chu's physical body—Venerable Xiao would seize it back no matter what!
Consort Qiang neither agreed nor disagreed, and Venerable Xiao said no more.
Shen Mu was uneasy in his heart, not knowing what thoughts these two harbored. On the river's surface, the eleven Heavenly Venerables each nursed their own schemes.
Just then, thick Chaos qi surged in and submerged them, and the people on the river immediately lost track of one another's positions.
"Ah—" Shen Mu let out a miserable scream, shrill beyond measure, followed by the sound of something heavy falling into the water.
The Heavenly Venerables were startled: "Venerable Mu was killed by Consort Qiang? Thrown into the Chaos River?
" On the little boat, Consort Qiang watched coldly as Shen Mu hurled a lump of divine gold into the river, and sneered: "Venerable Mu is truly a master of swindling and deception.
But your scream was rather too miserable—a bit overdone.
If I wanted to kill you, I would be very quick about it. I would not let you scream for so long before dying. " Shen Mu glanced at her and smiled: "This mass of Chaos qi came at just the right time. We are being held hostage by them.
Even if we fight our way through, once we reach the destination they will still kill us. Better to take this opportunity to feign death and escape. " Consort Qiang snorted and said calmly: "Feigning death will not fool Venerable Gong's divine consciousness.
She is my woman, and her divine consciousness is incomparably powerful. .
.
" "She is also Tai Chu's woman.
" Shen Mu kindly reminded her: "And now she is Venerable Hao's woman. " Consort Qiang ground her teeth with a crunching sound, wishing she could immediately chop him into mincemeat.
