Chapter 158: Plans

When Zhu Lin heard Lu Qiu’s words, Xiu Wu, Ji Yang and Tan Wei’s faces appeared in her mind. She felt reluctant to leave them, so she shook her head, and said, "I will not return to the Six Realms before I form my god core and recover my cultivation."

After saying that, Lu Qiu stared at her for a while and asked, "Is it because of the war between the Celestial Realm and the three dark realms?"

Zhu Lin raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "You are sealed in this world for more than twenty thousand years. How do you know about the incoming war?"

Lu Qiu chuckled and said, "Even if I am sealed by the Devil God, I’m still the ruler of the Demon Realm. It is not difficult for me to know what is happening in the Six Realms."

Seeing his confident expression, Zhu Lin thought for a moment and asked, "High God Lu Qiu, do you know the current situation in the Six Realms?"

When she asked this question, Lu Qiu’s confident expression suddenly stiffened.

He coughed and said awkwardly: "Uh... I haven’t recovered my strength yet, so I don’t know the current situation in the Six Realms. But when I recover thirty percent of my strength, I can contact the Demon Realm to learn about the current situation."

After hearing what he said, Zhu Lin sighed and asked, "High God Lu Qiu, are you sure those demons will tell you the truth about the situation in the Six Realms? Do you think your subordinates are still waiting for you to come back?"

Lu Qiu frowned slightly and asked, "True God Zhu Lin, what do you want to say? Are you saying that those demons want to rebel?"

Zhu Lin thought of the day when she failed her tribulation lightning and said, "The reason why I attempted the tribulation lightning to become an ancient god was because the three dark races declared war on the Celestial Realm. At that time, the ruler of the Demon Realm was the Nine-tailed Fox King, and he claims to be the ruler of the Demon Realm."

After saying that, she looked at Lu Qiu and asked, "High God Lu Qiu, do you think the Nine-tailed Fox King could dominate the Demon Realm without the support of the other demons? Do you think these demons are still waiting for you to come back when they already support the new ruler? Can you really trust them and believe the information they give you?"

After hearing what she said, Lu Qiu lowered his eyes and his expression became cold. Lu Qiu was born into the Divine Dragon clan and was prideful and vengeful. When he learned that his people had abandoned him and usurped his throne, he was furious.

Looking at his furious and cold expression, Zhu Lin said calmly: "You don’t have to be angry. As long as you go back to the Demon Realm, those demons will have no choice but to kneel down in front of you."

After a moment of silence, Lu Qiu looked at her and asked, "What reason do you have for telling me this?"

"I have no other reason. I just want to let you know the last situation in the Six Realms before I fell into this world. You are the only black dragon born in hundreds of millions of years. If you die because of the betrayal of the demons, it will be a loss to all living beings in the Six Realms." Zhu Lin said calmly.

Knowing that she couldn’t lie and had no reason to lie to him, Lu Qiu sighed and asked, "True God Zhu Lin, do you have any other plans?"

Zhu Lin thought for a while and said, "I now plan to help my friends and mortals to survive in this world while forming my god core and restoring my cultivation. After that, I will return to the Six Realms and end the war. This is my duty and this is what I want to do."

Lu Qiu nodded and said, "Since there is only devil energy in this world, where did you get the divine energy to form your god core? Did you bury the divine vein somewhere?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I have found another source of spiritual energy. But it will take me a long time to form my god core in this way. As for the divine veins, I have not found a suitable place for planting before. But now that I have met you, I decided to plant the divine veins here."

Lu Qiu’s eyes lit up when he heard her words. He smiled for the first time and asked, "Do you want to plant divine veins around my dragon vein?"

Zhu Lin nodded to him and said, "Mhm. Since only your dragon vein can purify the devil energy, I can only plant the divine veins around your dragon vein for now. After the divine energy spreads throughout this world, I can try to plant more divine veins and spiritual veins in this world to suppress the devil energy. I estimate that in ten thousand years, the devil energy in this world will completely disappear, replaced by the spiritual energy and divine energy."

"Then when will you plant the divine veins?" Lu Qiu asked again.

Zhu Lin stared at him for a while and said, "High God Lu Qiu, you look very happy and excited."

Lu Qiu coughed and said calmly, "Ahem, I’m just curious."

Just when Zhu Lin was still doubting Lu Qiu’s answer, Xiu Wu came back and said, "Xiao Lin, there is an emergency. I need to go out now. Finish your meal and get some sleep."

Zhu Lin saw his grim expression and asked, "What happened?"

Xiu Wu looked at her and said, "When they were building the wall, they found a lot of insects under the soil. You just stay here and rest. I’m leaving now."
