In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

Chapter 591: Encountering Pangolin Again

"As expected of the Demon Lord, his mind is indeed meticulous!"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but admire him, but at the same time he was also curious about who the guy was who had snatched the opportunity from Gray Mouse and made a Demon Lord go to so much trouble.

Thinking back to the people who entered Frost Plain this time, apart from Gray Mouse, only Wu Derang could make Lu Yuan pay a little more attention. Could it be this person?

While Lu Yuan was thinking, he changed direction and looked around.

But not long after, Lu Yuan suddenly felt a familiar breath coming from somewhere inside the mountain.

Lu Yuan's heart moved, and he quickly moved towards the direction where the breath came from.

As Lu Yuan got closer, the aura became stronger and stronger.

Could it be him?

After Lu Yuan continued walking forward for more than a hundred feet, a tunnel several feet high suddenly appeared in the mountain.

At the end of the tunnel, there was a monster covered with scales but with a broken body lying there motionless.

Its lower body had long disappeared, leaving only the upper body, and its two pairs of front paws were still stretched forward as far as possible.

Lu Yuan slowly approached, looked at the half-remains of the monster for a while, and couldn't help but frowned.

Judging from the appearance of this beast, it was clearly the pangolin that entered the forest and frost plain with him, except that its true form was revealed.

Moreover, Lu Yuan sensed that the pangolin was not completely dead yet, and a very faint trace of life was still emanating from half of its remains.

"Whatever, we finally got to know each other."

Lu Yuan sighed, raised his hand and cast a spell on the pangolin, and a cloud of light instantly covered the pangolin's head.

After a full cup of tea, a soul light flashed on the pangolin's pointed head and slowly condensed into the shadow of a mini pangolin. However, this shadow had its eyes closed and was extremely weak, as if it would disappear at any time.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan opened his mouth again, and a ball of rich energy spurted out.

With the replenishment of energy, the pangolin's shadow quickly solidified. After a while, its eyes trembled and slowly opened.

"It's... you, Senior?" The phantom of the pangolin opened his eyes, saw Lu Yuan in front of him clearly, and let out a surprised sound.

But he soon became alert again and instinctively felt around his body with his claws, as if he was worried that something important had been taken away by Lu Yuan.

But this action made the pangolin's expression freeze again. He looked around and finally saw the remains of his own half body. He was shocked at first, but soon his face turned sad.

However, when his gaze turned back to Lu Yuan, he became spirited again.

"Thank you for your help, senior. I wonder if there is any way to save my life." Pangolin understood his current situation and asked with anticipation, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"save you?"

"Alas, you should know very well in your heart that the little consciousness you have now is just a last glimmer of light with my help, and it won't last long." Lu Yuan sighed and said lightly.

"Haha... People die for money, birds die for food. I finally live up to this saying." The pangolin's hope was broken by Lu Yuan, and he smiled bitterly.

"What you said is true, but should I say you are radical or stupid? You actually dare to compete with a demon lord for the opportunity. This can't be described as a life-and-death situation!" Lu Yuan's face darkened and he said with a hint of blame.

"Senior, you misunderstood me. I really didn't know that Gray Venerable had the same goal as me, otherwise he would never have come to this Linhai Frost Plain. Moreover, I met him not long after I succeeded. He didn't give me a chance to explain at all. He attacked and injured me. I fled to this mountain at the risk of my life, and then I met you.

Now that I hear you say that, could it be that you are also here for the treasure of the Immortal Venerable?" Pangolin was not angry at Lu Yuan's reproach.

"Hehe, I don't know anything about the Immortal Venerable. It was simply bad luck that I accidentally broke in. I just didn't expect that I would be implicated by a guy like you." Lu Yuan laughed and said indifferently.

"Uh...but now I have no choice but to say sorry." Pangolin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and after a long time he shook his head and sighed.

"Maybe not. That Gray Rat said that as long as I hand you over, he will let me go." Lu Yuan suddenly laughed.

"Well, it's up to you, senior. But I have to remind you that even if you really did that, Grey Venerable will never let you go easily." Pangolin shook his head slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"The reason is that I got nothing from the place where the Immortal Master passed away except a jade slip." Pangolin said this with a tone full of regret.

"Only one jade slip?" Lu Yuan was a little unconvinced when he heard it.

"There really is only one jade slip. If you don't believe me, my body is right there. Go ahead and search for it, senior."

Lu Yuan had no intention of touching the pangolin's body. He believed that at this point, the pangolin no longer had any need to deceive itself.

"Who is this Immortal Venerable? It's fine for you, but why is it that even Huihaozi, a dignified Demon Venerable cultivator, is willing to personally risk his life to enter the forest and frost plain to look for his hidden treasures?" After a moment of silence, Lu Yuan asked with a little confusion.

"Senior, have you never heard of the name of the Immortal Venerable?" After hearing Lu Yuan's question, Pangolin's tone also sounded a little surprised.

"No." Lu Yuan replied indifferently.

"More than ten thousand years ago, the Immortal Venerable was the first demon lord under the Holy Ancestor." Pangolin paused here, but seeing that Lu Yuan's expression did not look strange, he continued speaking...

The rise of the Immortal Venerable was very sudden, and not many people knew him at first. It was just that at a certain auction, the Immortal Venerable and another Demon Venerable had a conflict over a treasure. After the auction, the two of them fought each other, and the Immortal Venerable beat his opponent severely in just a few rounds and he fled.

But the identity of the defeated man was also extraordinary. He was a descendant of the Holy Ancestor Huangsha. After suffering such a big loss, he naturally refused to give up. So he borrowed the name of his elder, the Holy Ancestor Huangsha, and gathered several demon lords with whom he had a good relationship to find the Undying Venerable again.

But the final result made the Immortal Venerable famous in the Holy World.

Because in that battle, the Immortal Venerable was like a demon descended from heaven, and he killed all the invading Demon Lords!

And then, the Holy Ancestor Huangsha, who came in person to seek revenge, suffered a great loss and finally left helplessly.

With such an amazing record, the Immortal Venerable was given the title of the No. 1 Demon Lord under the Holy Ancestor.
