The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1148 - 441: The Spear of Jealousy_3

The three Demon Kings gasped in astonishment, their mouths wriggling, unable to render a judgment.

After a long while, Aegi Mogo, who was sitting at the higher seat, came back to her senses with a light sigh of relief,

"I can’t believe my lineage, the Land of Lust, had a cursed artifact, almost leading us to an irreversible catastrophe."

"What kind of holy water is this? It’s absolutely twisted."

"But then again, Lord Ye, you are from the Human Race, and you are bound by a Contractual Relationship with Aegifura."

"How do you see this matter? Are you planning to assist us, the Demon Race, in slaughtering those humans?"

Ye Hanjun didn’t answer immediately; instead, he pinched his chin, pondering deeply,

"Having differing stances sometimes indeed makes it impossible to remain uninvolved."

"Since the artifact concerns the rise and fall of the Seven Sins and can aid an individual’s growth, the stolen ’Whip of Lust’ definitely needs to be retrieved."

"However, I have no intention of participating in the slaughter."

"As for specifics, it depends on the situation; it’s too early to say now."

"Aegi Mogo, you’ll take charge of the Land of Lust from now on."

"War Armor, Dagger, Pig Dragon, the three of you stay by her side, keep to your protective duties, and do not leave her side."

After pausing for a moment, Ye Hanjun murmured to himself,

"Since it’s a region where humans have taken root, it’d be better for me to explore it than if members of the Demon Race were to visit, as it would allow for more leeway."

"The map displayed just now showed at least three coordinates near the Land of Lust."

"Based on proximity, I will investigate these three areas first."

"If there’s any gain, that’s for the best; otherwise, I’ll continue further away until I formally meet with the heirs of the Seven Virtues..."

"Woo woo woo, leaving me alone in the palace makes me so lonely~~"

Aegi Mogo pretended to jump onto Ye Hanjun’s knees, attempting to embrace his thighs, crying and whining,

"Lord Ye, can you not accompany me~~~"

"I’m really obedient; you tell me to go east, and I won’t go west; you tell me not to kill, and I won’t even harm a single flower or blade of grass..."

"No way, no way, you little flirt, a country can’t be without its ruler!"

Suddenly changing into the appearance of a Qilin War Armor Demon, Little GuaGua pushed her away staunchly defending,

"Just stay put in the palace, we’ll handle things well; you don’t need to worry about us!"

"Worry? I’m not worried at all."

Aegi Mogo blinked and blurted out,

"Lord Ye will certainly manage to control the heirs of the Seven Virtues, whether it’s temporarily confining them or making them serve as Servants; he will surely wield them as effortlessly as his own limb."

"And there are also the artifacts; Lord Ye might not be able to retrieve the ’Whip of Lust,’ but no matter which one he finds, as long as we have at least one artifact in hand, we will have bargaining power. The original Demon Kings will only think of ways to curry favor with us, and if we can get a good deal out of them, that would be a huge gain."

Ye Hanjun nodded slightly, agreeing with Aegi Mogo’s view.

The whereabouts of the stolen artifacts were unknown, and whether we could rely on luck was key.

If we couldn’t retrieve the Whip of Lust ourselves, we needed to ensure we had other artifacts to use as bargaining chips.

Otherwise, neither his personal resources nor the treasury of the Land of Lust could afford to purchase them.

"Yuwen Nai holds the Spear of Envy; with his capabilities, he could capture at least one more."

"Our actions need to be faster; if by bad luck, the Seven Artifacts are retrieved early, we’ll be in a passive position..."

Ye Hanjun made his plans and rushed out of the Giant Shark Teasing Shrimp Palace.

Outside the palace, Ye Liuying and Lie Xinxin immediately cast their gaze towards him.

To avoid the capture of their projections, they hadn’t stood inside the palace.

But regarding the exchanges within the palace, they had basically heard everything, and Ye Hanjun didn’t need to deliberately hide anything.

"The Godchild is ready to leave at any moment," Lie Xinxin said with a light laugh.

Once she finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and a small wooden boat leisurely flew across the distant sky.

"What’s this?" Ye Hanjun was somewhat astonished.

This small wooden boat looked wobbly and seemed like it could fall apart at any moment; it hardly appeared to be a suitable vehicle.

"I’ve investigated already; the Land of Lust is terribly poor."

"The sacred boat that Aegi Rosie controls was also stolen from humans; there’s only one, with no substitutes."

"This one is small and fragile, so we need to be extra cautious."

"However, its Speed is decent, it’s full of energy and can perform minor spatial jumps; it should make our journey slightly easier."

"Alright then, let’s go with it."

Ye Hanjun nodded and directly climbed into the co-driver’s seat of the small wooden boat.

Behind him, Aegifura, Lie Xinxin, and Ye Liuying followed suit, entering the cabin.

"Hehe, Godslayer Asura, hold tight, the old Driver is about to start the boat!"

At the helm, Lieyang Mushoucong stood upside down, his face full of eager anticipation.

It actually plugged its red onion, which grew on its head, into a vessel similar to an energy furnace, using its own Fire Element as fuel.

Then, as it shouted loudly, the hot-steaming cockpit immediately lit up with Formation patterns.

"Drip... Torrent, torrent, torrent!!!"

With all the Formation patterns lit up, the small wooden boat’s rear spewed fireworks.

As it sped off with a whizzing sound, Aegi Mogo’s Magatama eyes could no longer find any trace of Ye Hanjun and the others.
