Immortal in The Apocalypse

As soon as these words came out, the murderous intention in Xiu Wu’s body surged out and shot directly toward Lu Qiu. Feeling the familiar cold aura hitting his soul, Lu Qiu clenched his hands, gritted his teeth, and endured the pain.

He looked up at Xiu Wu, sneered, and asked with difficulty: "Wh... What’s wrong? Don’t you dare to make the oath?"

Xiu Wu stared at Lu Qiu coldly and asked, "How dare you threaten me with Lin’er’s life? Do you think I won’t kill you?"

Hearing what he said, Lu Qiu’s eyes flickered and he realized something. He looked at Xiu Wu and asked, "When did your cultivation recover?"

Xiu Wu stared at him and said, "Don’t ask about things you shouldn’t ask. Just answer my questions. Do you agree to investigate this matter or not?"

Lu Qiu lowered his eyes and thought to himself: ’Now that the Devil God’s cultivation has recovered, with my current strength, I am no match for him. Moreover, I need him to lift the seal on my soul. Otherwise, I cannot leave this world forever. Wait until I recover my cultivation. I will kill him then.’

With this in mind, he looked at Xiu Wu and said, "All right. I will help you investigate the Reincarnation Stone. But you need to swear that after I help you investigate this matter, you will lift the seal."

Xiu Wu nodded to him, then bit the tip of his index finger. At the cost of his blood, Xiu Wu wrote an ancient oath in the air.

After the ancient oath was completed, he made a hand seal and said calmly: "After Dragon God Lu Qiu helps me find out how Shuang and Huoyan reincarnated as humans in this world, I will remove the soul seal from Dragon God Lu Qiu’s soul."

As soon as these words came out, the ancient oath lit up brightly. It then separated into two pieces, turned into light, and entered the foreheads of Xiu Wu and Lu Qiu. After the ancient oath was completed, Xiu Wu looked at Lu Qiu and asked, "Are you satisfied now?"

Lu Qiu snorted and said, "This is what you should do. You sealed me here for more than twenty thousand years for no reason. You should be glad that I’m not fighting to the death with you now."

Hearing what he said, Xiu Wu said, "If you hadn’t colluded with Ling Zhen and wanted to steal my wife, I wouldn’t have sealed you here. You should thank me since I didn’t kill you and just sealed you in this world."

Hearing this, Lu Qiu stood up and asked angrily: "What did you say? You better not spread any false rumors! When did I collude with the Heavenly Emperor to steal your wife? Besides, I don’t even know who your wife is! You’d better speak clearly today. Otherwise, I won’t let you go!"

Seeing Lu Qiu’s angry look, Xiu Wu thought to himself: ’Did he not collude with Ling Zhen and deceive Lin’er? Did he really not know that Ling Zhen planned to marry Lin’er to him? But if he doesn’t know, why does he always come to see Lin’er?’

Seeing that Xiu Wu was busy with his own thoughts and ignored him, Lu Qiu flicked his long sleeves and said angrily: "You’d better explain it to me clearly today. Otherwise, I won’t help you investigate the matter of Ice Qilin and Fire Qilin’s reincarnation!"

Hearing what he said, Xiu Wu raised his eyes and looked at him.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Three days before Lin’er’s three thousandth birthday, one of your demon kings came to me. He said that when she comes of age, the Heavenly Emperor will grant a marriage to you and Lin’er. Don’t you know about this matter?"

Hearing this, Lu Qiu suddenly fell into silence. Seeing his reaction, Xiu Wu’s eyes darkened and he said coldly: "So you really want to steal my wife? Courting death!"

Lu Qiu scratched his head in embarrassment, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Well... You also know that the birth rate of the Dragon Race is very low. It would be a miracle if a new dragon could be born after one hundred thousand years. With this kind of birth rate, my Dragon Race is almost extinct. As their monarch, I need to do something. Besides, I don’t know that True God Zhu Lin is your wife."

Xiu Wu stared at him for a while in silence and asked, "Then what does the Dragon Race’s low birth rate have to do with marrying my Lin’er?"

Lu Qiu sat down on the sofa and replied: "True God Zhu Lin had unlimited divine energy as soon as she was born. When she becomes an adult, her strength will multiply and her divine energy will become the purest divine energy. With her as the mother of my child, it would be easy for us to have one child in a thousand years. As the ruler of the Demon Realm and the monarch of the Dragon Race, it is my duty to train the next monarch. I need a child to do this."

After hearing his explanation, Xiu Wu’s anger rose instantly. He looked at Lu Qiu coldly and said angrily: "How dare you treat my Lin’er as the breeder of your Dragon Race! Lu Qiu, you are seeking death!"

As soon as he said these words, the devil energy in his body rushed straight towards Lu Qiu and hit Lu Qiu’s lower dantian. Due to the heavy pressure from Xiu Wu, Lu Qiu was hit directly and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Cough!"

He fell to the floor, stared at Xiu Wu, and asked, "Are you crazy?! Why did you suddenly attack me?!"

Xiu Wu stood up, glared at Lu Qiu, and said, "Just do what you should do, and don’t touch what you shouldn’t touch! If you dare to have such thoughts about Lin’er again, I will let your Dragon Race perish sooner!"
