CHAPTER 730: CHAPTER 353: MOON PRINCESS’S COUNTERATTACK

Gu Jianlin leaned in front of the computer screen, lost in thought.

This picture is excessively blurry, obviously due to interference from an unknown magnetic field, yet one can still discern the tangled tree roots and the strange patterns that seem burned like molten lava, even a glance through the screen feels uncomfortable, as if there’s a bizarre allure making one go mad.

"Do you remember the section of tree root we saw at Penglai Fairy Island back then?"

Moon Princess propped her chin with her hand, tilting her head slightly, a cool scent wafting among her hair: "I think it must be the same thing, but it seems slightly different, making me feel a bit uneasy."

Other than this photo, the laptop doesn’t contain anything else of value.

It shows the members of The Order of the Hidden are very cautious.

They regularly clean their electronic devices, leaving no traces behind.

In the deepest parts of Penglai Fairy Island, there was a section of the Candle Light Divine Tree’s root, which ultimately nurtured the Spell of the Spiritual Fusion Secret Technique, allowing amphibious creatures to break boundaries and practice two Supreme Laws simultaneously.

But the Candle Light Divine Tree root seen at the time didn’t give off that eerie feeling.

"Because the Divine Tree root you saw had been specially treated, a product cultivated by three Ancient Supremes jointly to extract its inherent traits, thereby allowing beings like us to grasp the power of the Candle Light Law, and fill the last missing link. It’s the Ancient God Clan’s Supreme Holy Object, similar to the earliest human totem worship in ancient times. The difference being the Ancient God Clan’s Supreme Holy Object truly benefits them."

Skylark said coldly: "Not everyone can touch the Candle Light Divine Tree because it has an extremely strong curse trait, only those of Ancient Supreme Level can withstand it. Back at Penglai Fairy Island, I remember sending someone to destroy the Candle Light Divine Tree root to prevent it from being used."

"The Divine Tree root in Penglai Fairy Island was meant to nurture the Spiritual Fusion Secret Technique, the curse trait was naturally sealed. But once the Spiritual Fusion Secret Technique is born, the seal will naturally disappear."

She seemed to think deeply for a moment, explaining: "If I’m not mistaken, that section of the root wasn’t completely destroyed back then and was finally picked up by someone from The Order of the Hidden. These people must have burned the root, using its ashes to deceive Jiang Chunyang. Now that old ghost is suffering, that curse is terrifying."

So it was.

There’s no denying it, Gu Jianlin felt having a bad woman inside him was quite beneficial.

Stunning beauty, alluring figure, both knowledgeable and capable of fighting.

If not for the love-hate relationship, it indeed gives a lot of security.

"Seems like The Order of the Hidden truly is everywhere."

Gu Jianlin murmured: "Even managed to get their hands on such a thing."

He hesitated for a moment, repeating what the bad woman said.

"That’s how it is."

Moon Princess asked suspiciously: "How do you know?"

Gu Jianlin waved his hand: "Xu Fu told me."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a scornful snort echo in his mind.

"I wonder what kind of impact this curse will have on Jiang Chunyang."

Moon Princess said softly: "That old guy suddenly went mad, likely because his condition is terribly poor, giving him an extremely uneasy feeling, driving him to urgently use the hundred thousand dead spirit formation. It was originally researched by the Red King, intended as a gift for the King of Qing, but unfortunately, later senior brothers turned against each other."

"Jiang Chunyang is a man very fond of power, even in his twilight years he fiercely controls the Dark World in his hands, including the legacy the Red King left behind, no one knows where he hides it."

She solemnly said: "Now he has come to the end of his life, finally determined to cultivate the next generation of Red King. Unexpectedly, such a change occurred midway, he must be very uneasy now."

Gu Jianlin pondered: "Sounds like Jiang Chunyang sees himself as the Emperor. Emperors in their later years are all inherently suspicious, he wouldn’t think his clansmen and subordinates plan to unite with outsiders against him, would he?"

This thought seems very reasonable.

The Order of the Hidden is everywhere, naturally able to infiltrate the Dark World too.

Jiang Chunyang is the Ruler of the dark world, now finds that someone is conducting such chilling human experiments right under his nose, even including members of the Jiang Family.

It’s hard for him not to wonder how many of the Jiang Family have secretly betrayed him.

Even joining hands with external enemies to conspire for his wealth.

The feeling of being infiltrated internally is enough to shatter his sense of security.

"Speaking of, remember your fate projection back then?"

Gu Jianlin suddenly said.

Moon Princess paused, recalling the little bitch who wanted to eat crabs for her.

"You are very likely to become the new Red King in the future."

Gu Jianlin gazed deeply into her beautiful eyes, seriously said: "The problems in the Jiang Family are bound to be solved sooner or later, and I won’t let such a family constantly eye you, even if elders recognize your talent, there are always those plotting against you in secret. This is a great opportunity, you need to consolidate your power."

"You now have a great advantage because we can rely on the Si Family’s influence, let one family become your loyal supporters. It’s an advantage others do not have, provided the Si Family doesn’t fall."
