"Where's the person who hired you?" Du Ge asked.
"In the woods over there," the farr replied. "He said if anyone agreed to cooperate, I should bring them over."
"Lead the way," Du Ge sheathed his sword and instructed.
The farr glanced fearfully at Du Ge, bent over to pick up the two baskets of peaches on the ground, and led the way.
Du Ge called out to the dazed Luo Shuang.
Luo Shuang snapped back to reality, gave Du Ge an awkward smile, and quickly followed. She couldn't help but glance at the cut on the farr's face that Du Ge had made.
The characteristics of the Heavenly Demon described in the announcent kept swirling in her mind.
Leng Shi, who was severely injured, suddenly let her go, his wounds healed quickly, blood pouches, undercover, extensive knowledge, and he left imdiately after seeing the blood test at the city gate...
A series of clues converged in her mind, pointing to one truth—Heavenly Demon.
Her newly acknowledged master was highly likely to be a genuine Heavenly Demon who had possessed soone.
Previously, the story Leng Shi fabricated seed flawless, but it always felt a bit off. However, when she considered him as a Heavenly Demon, everything made perfect sense.
Heavenly Demon?
Her master was actually a Heavenly Demon in these chaotic tis!
Luo Shuang's heart pounded rapidly, and she occasionally glanced at Du Ge, feeling a bit lost.
"Princess, what are you thinking about?" Du Ge, with his keen senses, imdiately noticed Luo Shuang's abnormality.
When he saw the announcent, he realized he might have been exposed.
But Du Ge didn't take it seriously. He thought his disciple, whom he had personally trained, wouldn't be that foolish. Now it seed he might have overestimated her.
"Nothing," Luo Shuang forced a smile and said perfunctorily, "I was just wondering what the Heavenly Demon would look like. I've never seen one before!"
"Neither have I," Du Ge said, looking at the farr's back. "In a while, I might have to cut the Heavenly Demon twice to see if they really heal as quickly as the announcent says, and if you have to cut off their head to kill them..."
The farr's shoulders, carrying the baskets, trembled slightly.
Looking at Du Ge's calm deanor, Luo Shuang had a fleeting thought that maybe he wasn't the Heavenly Demon after all.
Too natural.
Maybe she should pretend to accidentally cut him to verify her judgnt...
What could his keyword be?
"After talking for so long, I still don't know what you think of the Heavenly Demon," Du Ge's voice, as if coming from the sky, struck Luo Shuang like lightning, jolting her awake.
That's right!
Why was she worried about whether He Xu was the Heavenly Demon?
Wouldn't a Heavenly Demon be better?
No entanglents from any forces behind him, no ulterior motives in approaching her...
Even if he had a motive, it was beneficial to her at the mont.
Otherwise, who else could she rely on in this world?
Moreover.
If Leng Shi hadn't been possessed by the Heavenly Demon, she wouldn't even be alive now.
Indirectly, He Xu had saved her life...
"Assistance," Luo Shuang thought for a mont and said, "Master once said that everything has two sides, even won can hold up half the sky. This sentence inspired and gave the courage for revenge.
I think the sa applies to the Heavenly Demon. Not all Heavenly Demons are bad. Whether a knife harms or saves people depends on the person holding it. If the Heavenly Demon can help reclaim the throne, I don't mind ruling Qingwu Kingdom together with them."
"Well said!" Du Ge nodded. Luo Shuang's words were undoubtedly a statent to him. Her quick response showed that his teaching hadn't been in vain. He smiled, "Old man, shall we continue?"
"Not far now," the old farr said.
"My princess has already stated her position. Don't you have anything to say?" Du Ge asked with a smile.
"I'm just an old man, I don't understand what you're talking about," the farr said timidly.
"There's no Heavenly Demon over there, right?" Du Ge sighed. "Nowadays, everyone in Chongming Kingdom is out to get the Heavenly Demon. Which Heavenly Demon would risk their life by trusting soone else? So, if you lead us over there, we'll probably just see traces of soone having been there. Am I right?"
"Sir, that person really gave ten taels of silver..." The farr put down the baskets and pointed helplessly at the cut on his face. "And the announcent said that the Heavenly Demon's wounds heal quickly. If I were the Heavenly Demon, this cut would have healed by now."
"Heavenly Demon, even the princess has figured it out. Your acting is quite poor. Ordinary people wouldn't ignore the title of 'princess' without turning their heads," Du Ge shook his head and smiled at him. "Who do you think her earlier words were ant for?"
"..." Luo Shuang.
"Who are you really?" The old farr sighed, put down the baskets, straightened his hunched back a bit, and looked at Du Ge with suspicion.
"Sir, she is Luo Shuang, the exiled princess of Qingwu Kingdom, and I am her master, He Xu," Du Ge cupped his fists again and said to the farr, "Dragon Fang's assassins are hunting us. We saw their killers at the city gate of Datong Town and avoided entering the city. We didn't expect you to mistake us for the Heavenly Demon. I guess this is fate!
Just now, the princess has expressed her attitude towards the Heavenly Demon. Although she is a woman, she has ambitions no less than a man. If you can help us restore the kingdom, there will definitely be a place for you in Qingwu Kingdom."
"Please help ," Luo Shuang cupped her fists and sincerely bowed to the farr.
"Qingwu Kingdom? Exiled princess?" The farr frowned and asked, "Can you tell what exactly happened?"
"So, you really are the Heavenly Demon?" Du Ge's voice couldn't hide his excitent.
"..." The farr was stunned.
Du Ge gave an awkward smile, cupped his fists again, and said, "Sir, your behavior doesn't match the Heavenly Demon described in the announcent, and your wound hasn't healed quickly. I was actually testing you just now. Please forgive ."
Damn!
The farr's face changed instantly. He looked at Du Ge, shook his head, and said, "Mr. He, you truly are an imperial teacher. I, Wu, am ashad."
After saying this, the wound on his face healed quickly.
Seeing the wound heal rapidly, Luo Shuang couldn't help but widen her eyes. Standing between two Heavenly Demons with a combined total of eight hundred tricks up their sleeves, she suddenly felt as naive as a fool.
For now, it seed her master was more formidable, playing the other party like a fiddle without them even realizing it.
"Mr. Wu, you're too modest. Actually, we are also desperate, trying anything in a crisis," Du Ge said, slightly stunned by the healing wound but quickly regaining his composure, his micro-expressions perfectly controlled.
Then.
While guessing the other party's keyword, he explained their current situation in detail.
Alien Star warriors who possess bodies do retain mories.
So unlucky ones might lose their mories, but that's rare.
This ti, Pan-Universal Entertainnt changed the rules, making everyone possess bodies randomly.
So, the possessed person's experiences limit them. Even if they have mories, they might not be useful.
If he was a killer, it would be easier to deal with.
The one who possessed the old farr might only have mories of farming and feeding cattle, with his world knowledge limited to his imdiate surroundings.
Expecting him to understand the major events of the world in a few days was indeed difficult.
"...That's about it," Du Ge said. "Now, the princess only has as her guard. Dragon Fang's assassins are blocking our way to Chongming Kingdom to seek reinforcents. We are going to Qinglan Sword Sect for help. The announcent said the Heavenly Demon has supernatural powers to disrupt the world. If you can help us overco the current crisis, we will agree to any request you make..."
"Please help ," Luo Shuang bowed to the farr again and promised, "Sir, if I can reclaim Qingwu Kingdom and avenge my father and brothers, I am willing to grant you the position of national teacher."
The farr looked at Du Ge and Luo Shuang, instinctively holding his breath. Helping the princess restore her kingdom, was this the main storyline of the Alien Star Battlefield?
Was he really this lucky?
Did he just casually catch two big fish?
"Mr. Wu, I know this is very difficult. If you are unwilling, we won't force you, but please keep our secret..." Du Ge's words were humble, but his hand quietly gripped the sword hilt, ready to kill if the farr didn't agree.
A tough guy!
The native's intelligence was too high.
The farr looked at He Xu, then at Luo Shuang, and made a decisive decision. He knelt on one knee, cupped his fists, and said, "Princess, Mr. He, I am honored by your trust. Wu Chang is willing to serve the princess with all my might."
