133: Demon Palace Ancestor
In the main hall, a pin drop could be heard.
After a while, the scroll trembled slightly; because she was sealed, she was indeed unable to act.
She could only try to scare people.
However...
A monstrous wave of devil energy overflowed from the scroll, enveloping the entire main hall.
Many experts from the Devil Hall, within this devil energy, saw their auras rise steadily; in everyone's eyes, there was intense madness, their reason completely gone.
"Kill!"
From within the scroll, a cold voice came out.
Numerous experts, like madmen, rushed towards the Fourth Ancestor to kill him; the aura emanating from a few of them had actually barely reached the great emperor level.
The Fourth Ancestor's expression became serious.
Without the slightest fear, he bravely met the attack, and at the same time, he roared:
"Stop hiding, attack together!"
Boom!
The other three great emperors all revealed themselves.
Their strength, naturally, was not comparable to these Devil Hall experts; if they hadn't wanted them to work for the Qin Family, the Fourth Ancestor and the others would have just killed them all.
After some effort, the Devil Hall experts were subdued.
The Fourth Ancestor looked at the scroll:
"Although you are an immortal dao expert, because you are sealed, your limitations are too great; you won't be our opponent."
The devil energy surged, and anyone could feel the anger of the immortal dao expert within the scroll.
It was just that, being sealed within the scroll, she had no way to do anything.
The devil energy slowly receded; she couldn't do anything to the Fourth Ancestor and the others, and similarly, the Fourth Ancestor and the others couldn't do anything to her.
"Perhaps, we can talk."
At this moment, the Fourth Ancestor spoke.
Hearing this, the other party gave a cold laugh:
"Talk?
Talk about how to incorporate my Devil Hall?"
Before the words finished, the aura of the Devil Hall experts suddenly dropped; those who had regained their reason had their expressions change drastically:
"Ancestor, spare us!"
"Ancestor, we would never dare to betray you."
The Devil Hall experts all begged for mercy.
The Fourth Ancestor's expression also changed; these were all high-level laborers for the Qin Family; losing even one would be heartbreaking.
"Someone can help you unseal it!"
The Fourth Ancestor quickly spoke.
The rapidly dropping aura of the Devil Hall experts finally stopped; they all breathed a sigh of relief, collapsing to the ground, trembling, and cautiously kneeling before the painting.
The immortal dao expert inside was silent for a while before letting out a sneer:
"Just you?"
Her Seal was set by an immortal dao expert; a mere great emperor couldn't even break through the defense.
"Naturally, I can't."
The Fourth Ancestor shook his head, then chuckled:
"However, someone can."
The person he was talking about, naturally, was Qin Jiang.
Although Qin Jiang hadn't said he could unseal it, the Fourth Ancestor had absolute confidence in Qin Jiang.
Since he knew the Devil Hall had an immortal dao expert, unsealing the other party shouldn't be a problem, right?
Thinking this, the Fourth Ancestor's smile became increasingly confident.
The other party observed the Fourth Ancestor; such confidence made it truly difficult not to believe him.
"Do you have an immortal dao expert behind you?"
The other party asked.
The Fourth Ancestor's smile froze, and he shook his head:
"No."
Inside the scroll, the immortal dao expert was a little disappointed; without the help of an expert of the same level, it was simply impossible to unseal it.
"Without an immortal dao expert, it's impossible to unseal it."
"He can definitely unseal it!"
The Fourth Ancestor remained firm, then advised:
"Give it a try; you won't lose anything anyway."
Hearing this, that immortal dao expert's heart also stirred.
Just as the Fourth Ancestor said, even if the Seal wasn't removed, she wouldn't lose anything; if it really was removed, she would gain a lot.
Moreover, the other party didn't have an immortal dao expert; after she unsealed herself, wouldn't she directly dominate?
"Okay."
After a brief consideration, the other party agreed.
The Fourth Ancestor also smiled:
"Then these people from the Devil Hall..."
"They're yours."
The other party said without hesitation; the many experts of the Devil Hall were originally cultivated by her casually, their purpose merely to support her and ensure her strength didn't drop too much while sealed.
Now, if she could unseal herself, this Devil Hall naturally wouldn't need to exist; and if she couldn't unseal herself, she wouldn't have the ability to keep the Devil Hall members, at most she could just kill them all.
Therefore, she didn't care about the Devil Hall at all.
...
Returning to the imperial city.
Inside the Dragon Princess Residence, above the black dragon's head, a scroll was suspended.
The scroll faced Qin Jiang, seemingly examining him.
"Can you help this immortal unseal herself?"
From within the scroll, the immortal dao expert questioned.
Qin Jiang smiled faintly and nodded:
"Easily."
He possessed the Immortal King Seal; unsealing it was not a difficult task.
It was just that, for an immortal dao expert, he couldn't yet control her.
He would only help the other party unseal herself after Sword Yao broke through.
"Heh, your tone isn't small."
The other party sneered.
Qin Jiang chuckled, lightly pointed towards the painting, and secretly activated the power of the Immortal King Seal.
The scroll trembled slightly.
But immediately after, Qin Jiang withdrew his arm.
"Do you believe it now?"
Qin Jiang said with a smile.
Inside the scroll, that immortal dao expert was full of shock; just a moment ago, the Seal had actually trembled.
And the one who caused the Seal to tremble was actually just a young man!
"What kind of method is this?"
She asked in shock.
Qin Jiang shook his head, his smile full of mystery.
The other party became anxious:
"If you help me unseal it, the Devil Hall will be yours."
"Unsealing it is simple, but..."
"Whatever you want, as long as you unseal it, I can satisfy you."
"But, I don't want to unseal it."
"???"
That immortal dao expert seemed somewhat incredulous:
"You don't want to unseal it?
Then why did you have them bring me back?"
"I wanted to see how down and out an immortal dao expert could become."
...
The scroll trembled, and surging devil energy rose.
However, before she could say anything harsh, Qin Jiang said calmly:
"Perhaps, someday when I'm in a good mood, I can help you unseal it."
The devil energy paused, and then receded.
She had been sealed for an unknown amount of time, always in the scroll, in a muddled state, coupled with the endless lifespan of an immortal dao expert.
It was simply torture.
Sometimes, she even wanted to commit suicide.
Fortunately, her will was strong enough, and she persevered through it all; now, she finally saw a chance to be unsealed.
Naturally, she wasn't willing to miss it.
After calming down, she asked seriously:
"Speak.
What are your conditions?"
"No conditions."
Qin Jiang shook his head and said:
"You can follow me for now.
When the time is right, I will help you unseal it."
"When will the time be right?"
"When you are completely no threat to me, the time will be right."
"You don't believe me?"
"You're a big devil; can I believe you?"
Qin Jiang curled his lip; a big devil, could they possibly have any credibility?
I don't even have that thing.
The other party also paused and fell silent, having no room to argue.
After a while, she finally spoke:
"Alright.
I'll follow you for now; I hope you can help me remove the Seal as soon as possible."
