Chapter 208 Qin Baobao was ruthlessly abandoned
Just as Uncle Yun slowly stretched out his hand and was about to touch the spiritual fruits emitting the alluring fluorescent light, the Demon Lord suddenly waved his sleeves.
In an instant, it seemed as if an invisible and powerful force appeared out of nowhere and abruptly stopped Uncle Yun's actions.
The Demon Lord still had that seemingly profound smile on his face, but there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
There was also a hint of warning in his voice: "Master Yun, the transactions between us have always been based on the word credit. Only when this plan is completed smoothly and without any mistakes, you will be eligible to enjoy the reward you deserve. For now, Master Yun, please suppress your impatience for the time being. Don't be impatient."
Uncle Yun's outstretched hand paused in the air for a moment, and that brief pause seemed to freeze time. Then, he quickly and naturally withdrew his hand.
His movements were as smooth as flowing water, as if all these unexpected changes were originally within his expectations, and no one else could notice any flaws.
The smile on his face remained, but if you looked closely, you could find that there was a subtle bitterness and helplessness hidden in that smile.
But what is more of it is a kind of almost resolute coldness, which makes people feel chilled.
The Demon Lord's gaze lingered on Uncle Yun for a long time as if it were real.
Then he slowly turned to another place and continued to speak slowly: "I heard that you, Master Yun, are still inextricably linked with an old friend in the Qingyun Sect, and that the other party's child is now also in the sect. Why, don't you plan to leave a way for that child to live?"
As soon as the Demon Lord said this, which was full of temptation and provocation, the already depressing atmosphere in the hall instantly became even more tense, as if there was an invisible net hanging heavily over everyone's heads, making it hard to breathe.
When Uncle Yun heard this, the smile on his face did not waver, but a complex and indistinguishable light flashed in his eyes very quickly, and there seemed to be struggle and determination in that light.
He shook his head gently, his tone was so gentle that it was almost imperceptible, but underneath this gentleness, there was an unquestionable determination: "Master Demon, you are worrying too much. I planted the Soul Locking Nail in the child's mind when he was still young. Now, his mind is like that of a five or six-year-old child, ignorant and posing no threat to us at all. Moreover, if we want to know the exact location of Qingyun Sect this time, we have to rely on the help of me, the son of an old friend."
As he said this, a hint of ruthlessness suddenly flashed in Uncle Yun's eyes, and his gaze was like a sharp blade, as if he was deliberately reminding the Demon Lord.
He had already made comprehensive preparations for this operation, even at the cost of sacrificing the innocent child.
When everyone in the hall heard Uncle Yun's words, they were all shocked and turned their eyes to him. The emotions in their eyes were extremely complicated, including surprise at the sudden news, fear after hearing such cruel means, and deep contempt for Uncle Yun's behavior.
Shen Yue felt as if there was a ball of anger burning in his heart, and at the same time he was tightly entangled in endless grief. The feeling was really indescribable.
She could never imagine that Uncle Yun, who had once given her warmth and care in her eyes, would treat a child so cruelly, just to satisfy his own ulterior ambitions and pursue the so-called benefits.
The moment Shen Yue heard Uncle Yun's words, he felt as if the whole world had collapsed in his mind.
She suddenly understood why Ning Anru's daily behavior was always so unique and strange.
Why does he occasionally reveal an ignorance and slowness that is extremely inconsistent with his actual age.
It turns out that behind all this, someone was so cruel as to plant a soul-locking nail in his mind, cruelly depriving him of the right to normal growth and self-thinking.
An uncontrollable anger and grief surged in Shen Yue's heart. She felt extremely unfair about Ning Anru's experience. The emotion was like a surging tide that almost drowned her.
After hearing the conversation between Uncle Yun and the Demon Lord, Senior Sister Sangsang's face turned pale instantly, as if covered by a layer of frost. She quickly turned her head to look at Shen Yue, her eyes full of worry and warning, as if to say, don't be impulsive at this moment.
She quickly reached out and gently held Shen Yue's hand, then spoke in a very low voice that only the two of them could hear.
He lowered his voice and said anxiously, "Junior sister, don't be impulsive. We are in danger now. If we make a mistake, we will be doomed. We must stay calm, hold our composure, and find the right opportunity to escape."
Shen Yue clearly felt the warmth from Senior Sister Sangsang's palm, and that warmth seemed to have a magical power.
Coupled with the concern and rationality in her senior sister's words, the anger and impulse burning in her heart gradually subsided.
She took a deep breath, then nodded vigorously, using her eyes to convey her meaning to her senior sister, indicating that she would definitely listen to her advice and not act rashly.
At this moment, the Demon Lord suddenly clapped his hands, and the crisp applause echoed in the hall.
With the pride and arrogance that only a victor can have, it seems particularly harsh in this silent and depressing atmosphere.
His eyes were like a searchlight, slowly sweeping over the people present, and finally fixed on Uncle Yun. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile: "You are worthy of being the Left Envoy of my Demon Clan. If this plan can be successfully completed, you will really have made an indelible contribution. When the Qingyun Sect is completely destroyed, you can take as many spiritual fruits as you want. I will never break my promise."
The Demon Lord's words seemed to be full of appreciation and generous promises to Uncle Yun.
But the cruelty and coldness unintentionally revealed in those words made everyone present feel a chill on their backs, and the chill went straight out from the bottom of their hearts, making people shudder.
