#1665 - His wise eyes are as clear as seeing through fire!
Chu Hao's emotions were beyond words. No matter how long they spent together, Gu Yang could always surprise him.
Gu Yang was even afraid that the Shadow Demon wouldn't have enough demonic items, and even proactively sought treasures for the Shadow Demon. He even directly handed over his previous demonic sword!
Gu Yang's eyes were full of fervor.
"Brother, I, Gu Yang, want you to know that I will never let you down. Just take the sword without worry. For the sake of our demon race, please accept it!"
The Shadow Demon was a little unwilling, but raised his hand to stop him, saying:
"No, no, no, I really can't take this. This is something that only you, as a dignified Demon Marshal, can possess. I can't take what belongs to another!
I'll take a loss and take more demonic cores. You don't have to be so enthusiastic."
Otherwise, I'll feel very guilty, and I'll be afraid of feeling bad about taking your things in the future!
Gu Yang looked at the Shadow Demon with a complex expression.
For some reason, Chu Hao could see a glimmer of tears, a kind of emotion called "gratitude," in the depths of Gu Yang's eyes!
Gu Yang's hands trembled slightly as he grabbed the Shadow Demon's shoulders, excitedly saying:
"Brother, you're really too touching. You're indifferent to fame and fortune, and you see money as dirt! You, you're really too touching, too gentle, I want to cry! Thank you!"
Gu Yang was simply too excited to speak, tightly hugging the Shadow Demon.
Chu Hao's originally evil heart had no soil for things like conscience to grow, but now he was moved by Gu Yang's heartwarming words. In that barren, evil soil of his heart, a sprout called "conscience" was actually budding!
Damn it, I can't be deceived by the demon race's sweet talk. I must be a great villain!
The Shadow Demon coughed lightly and said calmly:
"Marshal, let's go arrange it now. Time is of the essence, delay will bring changes. The Relic is an extremely important bargaining chip in our hands, and it's also our chance to break into the Avici Hell."
Gu Yang nodded fiercely.
"Okay, brother, then I'll leave everything to you! Don't worry, I'll be behind you, making sure no one interferes with you!"
Gu Yang was also very righteous. He thought it through clearly. If he just let the Shadow Demon charge ahead, the Shadow Demon would be in great danger.
So he planned to personally watch from behind, waiting behind the Shadow Demon. As long as the Shadow Demon finished acting and obtained the Relic, he would fully support him.
Even if the Buddhas of the Western Heaven came, they wouldn't even think about harming his brother in the slightest!
The two discussed the result.
Gu Yang turned his head and looked down coldly at the Nine-Headed Insect, throwing the Great Buddha Relic to the Nine-Headed Insect.
The Nine-Headed Insect was confused and even a little panicked.
Could it be that the wise and intelligent Demon Marshal had already seen through his little plan to shift the risk?!
The Nine-Headed Insect was terrified and hurriedly knelt on the ground, even confessing his guilt before Gu Yang could even speak.
"Reporting to the wise and courageous Marshal, I really didn't deliberately throw this hot potato to you in order to sit back and enjoy the benefits. I sincerely want to serve the demon race!
My heart for the demon race is as clear as the sun and moon, and I have absolutely no ulterior motives! Please, Marshal, understand!"
The Nine-Headed Insect was also a very discerning person. In an instant, he directly admitted his mistake, apologized, and pledged his loyalty in one go.
Originally, with his fearless nature, he even dared to trick the Western Heaven and the Hell God. He should naturally be very bold.
But for some reason, the Nine-Headed Insect always saw a hint of arrogance and seven parts exuberance in Gu Yang's eyes, as if he had completely seen through everything. It was that kind of insightful gaze that made the Nine-Headed Insect lose the courage to pretend and directly confess.
After confessing, the Nine-Headed Insect was terrified and fearful, but still secretly looked up at Gu Yang, wanting to see some emotion in Gu Yang's eyes.
However, the Nine-Headed Insect was disappointed. What he saw was Gu Yang's still contemptuous and arrogant gaze, as if he didn't know anything about it.
However, the Nine-Headed Insect's heart skipped a beat. Not only did he not feel fortunate, but he felt extremely terrified.
It's over, this Marshal doesn't not know, but has already seen through it and simply doesn't care about his little thoughts!
He doesn't not know, he just doesn't care!
Whether he confesses or not, it has no impact or effect on the Marshal!
His little thoughts are like an ant trying to shake a big tree, as insignificant as an ant!
For the first time in his life, the Nine-Headed Insect felt such a failure, a pain where all his plans became child's play.
As a branch of the Evil Dragon, his life was originally about using intelligence to wreak havoc on the world. The kind of strategic planning that played with the Western Heaven and the Hell God was his pride!
However, in front of Gu Yang, all his tricks were seen through, clearly and naked!
Even more terrifying was that this Demon Marshal not only saw through his tricks, but also didn't care about all his tricks, just like a soaring dragon in the sky wouldn't care about the calculations of ants on the ground.
The Nine-Headed Insect's soul seemed to fall into the deep sea. His dignity was shattered to pieces, not a single piece intact.
The Nine-Headed Insect buried his head deeply on the ground, listening to the Marshal's emotionless instructions, his whole person still like a walking corpse.
The Nine-Headed Insect left.
The Nine-Headed Insect, whose dignity had been shattered, was like a walking corpse, listening to all of Gu Yang's instructions without missing a word, like a machine.
Including carrying a demon hidden in his shadow—
It was the Shadow Demon that the Nine-Headed Insect had found very familiar but had never seen before.
The Nine-Headed Insect didn't care anymore. All his pretense, all his pride had been broken. His self-esteem was shattered into a mist, shrouding his eyes, making the Nine-Headed Insect like a walking corpse, without any vitality.
Even when he returned to his cave, no matter how his wife questioned him, the Nine-Headed Insect didn't say another word.
His mind was full of Gu Yang's condescending eyes, those emotionless eyes that didn't care about all his conspiracies!
The Nine-Headed Insect's previous smugness in scheming and deceiving the Western Heaven and the Hell God was also completely shattered.
This kind of muddled state lasted for a day and a night after returning from the demon race!
At a certain moment, a trace of worship ignited in the Nine-Headed Insect's eyes.
Although it was just a flame, this fire of worship was extremely firm and powerful, as if the whole person had gone crazy!
"The Hell God once famously said, if you can't beat them, join them!
Now that the demon race has such a powerful Marshal, if I can join, the Great Dao can be achieved!"
The Nine-Headed Insect's eyes were full of firm belief, as if he had grasped faith.
At the same time, Guanyin Bodhisattva came to the cave again.
