The Demon Lord hesitated for a mont, then nodded, "Yes!"
"Your wife must have been a good person!" Chu Mo said.
"She was the best woman in my eyes," the Demon Lord quietly replied, a hint of warmth appearing in his cold eyes, "I was recovering from my injuries for half a year, and even after they healed, I didn't dare return to the sect imdiately. I could only secretly inquire about the news from the sect. What I found out... was tragic news. My sect... was gone. My parents... were gone. The elders who loved ... all gone! The land where I grew up had turned into scorched earth."
The Demon Lord clenched his teeth, a hint of ferocity showed on his calm face, veins bulged on his forehead, "The matter of us obtaining the chance in the Immortal Mansion eventually got spread out. Those people located my sect from my dead junior brothers' bodies. They captured all the people in my sect and interrogated them about my whereabouts. But those from my sect, even if they knew where I was, how could they tell them? As a result...more than a thousand lives in the sect disappeared from this world. And they all died horrible deaths! Even the chance of reincarnation... they didn't have."
The Demon Lord's tone was still so calm, but his face had beco extrely ferocious, a torrential hatred and self-bla lurked deep within his eyes!
"Wait..." Chu Mo widened his eyes, "Master... You an, those people killed thousands from the entire sect just to find your whereabouts?"
"Yes!" the Demon Lord said, "Because they finally unlocked the entire Immortal Mansion, and found that the largest opportunity... should have been taken by ! The Immortal Techniques secrets they took from the bodies of my fellow disciples were all very powerful. This increased their greed even more, they wanted to get the best."
"My God..." Chu Mo exclaid, finally understanding why his master had warned him not to expose the fact that he has the skill of alchemy.
"All my relatives are dead. If it hadn't been for her stopping then, I would definitely have rushed out to fight with those people!" the Demon Lord said indifferently, "She said, with my current strength being so weak, I would definitely die if discovered by those people! She told to concentrate on cultivation, that revenge could wait for years..."
"She was right." Chu Mo recalled his own grudge with Longevity Heaven and spoke earnestly.
"I kept a low profile and endured for more than a decade. She often ca to see and secretly brought a lot of resources. Without her helping in secret, I would not have been able to improve so quickly." The Demon Lord recalled every mont of those years with her, his fierce face revealing a hint of calm, "Later, when my strength beca strong enough, I started my journey of revenge. I've thought about it countless tis, revenge... must be a very fulfilling thing! In fact... at first, it really was like that! Killing my enemies gave a strong sense of satisfaction!"
Chu Mo looked at the Demon Lord, inwardly sighing. If he had been in the Demon Lord's place, he would have likely done the sa. After all, not everyone can let go of such deep-seated hatred.
"But during the process of taking revenge, inevitably... so innocent people were killed by . Maybe they weren't so innocent. But that's not important anymore because they died at my hands nonetheless." A sigh ca from the Demon Lord, "There were too many forces that participated in eliminating my sect... large and small, there were more than a dozen of them! I went from one to another, killing them one by one... it didn't take long before they understood the reason."
An ironic smile appeared on the Demon Lord's face: "So, so people who couldn't stand the pressure leaked the matter of obtaining the greatest Immortal Fate. And they said that I was so powerful because of the Immortal Fate I obtained back then. At this ti, various righteous powers... jumped out one after another, began to openly accuse . So called a demon, so called a great demon, and others called a devil."
The Demon Lord looked at Chu Mo, ""Demon... I admit it! The mont my sect was annihilated, I had fallen into the demonic path! But a demon, devil, I don't agree. Even if I'm a demon, I am still the Demon Lord, a gentleman among demons!"
"You're the king among demons!" Chu Mo said, and then showed a sarcastic smile on his face, "What they really want is the Heaven's Will in your hands, right?"
The Demon Lord nodded, "Yes, or what else could it be? Seriously, for justice? Such pathetic justice ans nothing in the eyes of those big shots. So, I was still being pursued by countless righteous people before I finished my revenge. Among those people, there were so experts in poison. The Poison of Seven Killings I have was from them."
This was the first ti that the Demon Lord was going through the past events. Each scene was like a deep scar, which when opened by his own hands was bleeding. Chu Mo could even feel the pain in his Master's heart.
"And... what about your wife?" Chu Mo asked softly.
"She went to the Elixir Sect to seek for a cure in order to help get rid of the Poison of Seven Killings, but she was rejected by the Elixir Sect. The ingredients for the antidote to the Poison of Seven Killings are extrely expensive. Two of them are even incredibly rare. Even a sect like the Elixir Sect wouldn't have much of them in stock. Naturally, they wouldn't use those extrely rare dicinal ingredients... for an outsider like ." The Demon Lord sighed softly.
