133: Chapter 133 The two join forces, a strange development, the first time?

The meeting had not yet ended.

Afterward, the elders continued to discuss recent major events.

To Lu Qingyun's surprise, the young girl brought by the old woman walked over to him on her own initiative.

This scene naturally instantly drew the attention of the other younger generation members of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

And the next moment, they were completely unsettled!

They saw the girl reach out to Lu Qingyun, saying very earnestly: "Let's get to know each other. My name is Mu Susu."

"Are you interested in teaming up?"

"My name is Lu Mama. How should we team up?"

Lu Qingyun smiled and extended his hand as well, first making physical contact with Mu Susu.

Then... he didn't let go.

As mentioned before, the untainted, white lotus-like aura of someone like Mu Susu is most attractive to those dressed-up animals who like to pretend to be gentlemen.

And as it happened, Lu Qingyun was one of those people.

Her slightly cool palm was covered by Lu Qingyun's warm, large hand.

Mu Susu only felt a current of electricity travel from her palm all the way to the top of her head.

A tingling sensation washed over her body, causing her eyes to flutter, and she subconsciously pulled her hand away from Lu Qingyun's.

Well, from the beast core of that Purple Lightning Thunderbird, Lu Qingyun had acquired a talent called Lightning Shadow Escape.

Using it occasionally to discharge electricity seemed to have quite a good effect.

Looking at Lu Qingyun's eyes, which were so clear and devoid of any impurities, Mu Susu did not harbor any suspicion.

In her heart, she remained convinced that Lu Qingyun, like her, must have been coerced into joining by the elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

They... were of the same kind.

This was also the reason she wanted to team up with Lu Qingyun—not to compete for that so-called position of Heavenly Demon Saint Child.

But rather... to sabotage the plans of these cult members as much as possible!

Even though she was in the darkness, she still longed for the light!

"Susu, let's go to a room and discuss the details."

Compared to standing here listening to a bunch of old fossils talk and enduring the wary gazes of a crowd,

Lu Qingyun had been wanting to slip away for a long time.

It was perfect that Mu Susu had come to him; now he had a reason to leave.

Seeing the two of them leave early,

the other prodigies of the Heavenly Demon Sect could no longer sit still.

"They already have preliminary ideas and are preparing to lay out their plans so quickly? They truly live up to being the ones brought by those two elders!"

"Damn it! Is it actually possible to team up to compete for the position of Saint Child? One person alone was already a major threat to us, and now that the two of them have joined forces, I'm afraid..."

"Heh—what's there to be afraid of! The two of them only arrived in the capital today. In terms of foundation, how can they compare to our years of cultivation? In my opinion, they know that relying on the strength of one person, there is absolutely no chance of winning the Saint Child position, which is why they have no choice but to team up!"

"Indeed! To become the Saint Child, strategy, strength, and temperament are all indispensable! We are older than them and have our own foundations. We are already far ahead of them; they only have the path of teaming up! But we are different!"

"Well said! So... recruiting allies online, who's in?"

"Me, me, me!!"

"Hehe—these little ones are certainly full of motivation."

With the strength of these elders, they naturally knew exactly what was happening at the scene.

The White-bearded Old Man stroked his beard, his gaze falling on Leng Qianmo, and he said with a hint of meaning: "Elder Leng, the little one you brought... is quite interesting."

"Haha! Of course! Can anyone I, Leng Qianmo, take a liking to be anything less than exceptional?"

Leng Qianmo laughed. Being specifically mentioned by the White-bearded Old Man was definitely something to be radiant about.

Afterward, the White-bearded Old Man looked at the old woman, his gaze sinking slightly, and said: "Elder You, the one you brought..."

He paused, as if pondering. He seemed hesitant.

Finally, he nodded slowly and relented, saying: "She... has a connection with my Heavenly Demon Sect."

As soon as these words were spoken, a flash of joy crossed the old woman's eyes, but she did not speak.

She knew that with this person's approval, it meant she had done nothing wrong.

On the other side, seeing the White-bearded Old Man speak so highly of the two newcomers, the scrawny Elder Wu Shuo curled his lips.

He was deeply dissatisfied in his heart, but in front of the White-bearded Old Man, he dared not express it on the spot.

"Heh—just two wet-behind-the-ears brats."

"No matter how special they are, so what? With nothing to their names, they are destined to have no connection with the position of Saint Child!"

"Furthermore, regarding what was said earlier... 'no holds barred,' when the time actually comes to determine the ownership of the Saint Child position, I'm afraid it's not even certain if these two brats will be alive!"

Splash, splash—the sound of flowing water rang out in the bathroom.

Through the hazy mist, looking from the room, one could only see a blurred outline.

Only, that outline... was exceptionally large.

Mu Susu was lying on the bed at this moment, covering her body with the quilt, with only her little head exposed.

She didn't understand; weren't they supposed to come over to discuss the details? How did it suddenly turn into this?

He was even taking a bath. Was it... a bit too fast?

Creak—the bathroom door opened. Amidst the swirling mist, Lu Qingyun walked out directly, wearing only a bath towel.

"First time?"

Lu Qingyun looked at the nervous Mu Susu and spoke, wanting to ease the tense atmosphere.

However, the moment he spoke,

Mu Susu's eyes widened. She didn't expect Lu Qingyun to be so direct, asking such a question right off the bat.

But before she could respond, Lu Qingyun continued: "It's okay, it's like this the first time you kill someone. You'll get used to it later."

"By the way, how many people have you killed? The baleful aura on you is almost imperceptible. But if it were just one or two, you wouldn't be in this state, right?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Susu suddenly raised her head, realizing that she seemed to have misunderstood.

Her little face flushed with embarrassment.

But shortly after, she recalled some scenes, and a flash of sorrow crossed her eyes.

She spoke in a voice that was almost trembling, filled with remorse: "I am a sinner!"

"A full eight hundred and seventy-three people, all of them died at my hands!"
