Martial Peak

Chapter 2921, Two Matters

Yang Kai encountered many similar situations in the Thousand Illusions Dreamworld. In the war between the two races, even if a Demon were to be killed, leaving behind only its Demon Spirit, they would still retain their ability to transform the Barbarian Race into Demons, forcing them to change sides. The aura and Remnant Soul of the Demon Race both had strong corrosive power.

“What should we do now?” Fang Zhuo also asked.

Before Yang Kai had time to speak, the roaring Gong Yue suddenly turned quiet. His head jerked up, revealing a pair of terrifyingly dark eyes without any whites.

“Old… Old Patriarch Gong!” Chen Bing Ru shouted in a trembling voice as if hoping to confirm the identity of the person before her.

But Gong Yue ignored her calls, cocked his head to the side, and observed Yang Kai, showing both a look of bewilderment and curiosity as if he had just woken up from a long dream, not understanding where he was or what he was doing.

Yang Kai held his breath and stayed on guard.

But Gong Yue did not strike him; instead, he just made an odd noise from his throat and began stumbling outside.

Chen Bing Ru, Fang Zhuo, and Hua Yu Lu quickly made way. They didn’t have a shred of fighting strength left in them right now and simply did not dare to obstruct his path.

Gong Yue’s mind had clearly been corroded by the Demon Spirit because he was behaving very differently from before. It was as if a new Soul had seized his body but had yet to fully integrate with it. Even the way it walked was not quite normal.

In the silence, Gong Yue’s footsteps sounded incomparably harsh as he gradually moved away.

After his footsteps could no longer be heard, Hua Yu Lu and the others let out a sigh of relief, as if they’d been saved from a disaster. After watching Gong Yue’s transformation with their own eyes, they no longer had any doubts about what Yang Kai told them earlier about Demon Spirits.

“Has Old Patriarch Gong been possessed?” Fang Zhuo turned to Yang Kai and asked.

If that really were the case, then that would be a big problem. After all, Gong Yue was the former Patriarch of the Gong Family, and he even had a Second-Order Emperor Realm cultivation. If someone like that was allowed to roam freely, there was no saying what sorts of danger he could bring to the Southern Territory.

“I have no idea, but it may be even more serious than that!” Yang Kai looked grim. The only thing he could be sure of now was that Gong Yue had gone through demonification, but there was one thing he couldn’t understand. Even if Gong Yue’s mind was disturbed, he shouldn’t have been invaded so easily by the Demon Spirit. How could he have failed to even temporarily resist it?

Yang Kai couldn’t find a reasonable explanation for what he saw just now with his own eyes.

But then a thought suddenly struck Yang Kai and he shouted, “The Demon Character!”

Yu Lu turned to

In order to convince Gong Yue, he must have also presented the power of that character to him, and Gong Yue may have studied it during that time. So… Some Demon Essence should also have formed inside of him. That is the reason why he was willing to risk everything to work with Yang Tai to entrap us. Yes, that must be it. Otherwise, how could Gong Yue, as the former Patriarch of the Gong Family, make such a foolish and reckless decision?
