Chapter 1767: Shocking Niki! Must Play the Role Well!

"However, how did you end up here?"

After her condition improved slightly, Niki lifted her face, her beautiful eyes full of confusion:

"You even turned into a demon? Just now in the main hall, you clearly......"

She knew Xu Jingming indeed possessed the demon race's bloodline secret technique.

But that terrifying demonic form in the main hall.

The horrifying strength that instantly killed an Eternal Life titled cultivator.

Yet she could not connect it with the Star Core stage youth in her memory.

"This story is quite long......"

Xu Jingming helped her sit on a nearby stone bench.

He briefly described his strength changes over these years.

Coming to the demon race was only to find something.

Of course, regarding core secrets like the Purple Nightmare Demon Body and Chaos Pearl, he naturally omitted them.

Even so, after listening, Niki remained trapped in a long daze.

"Eternal... Eternal Life Eighth Stage?"

Her lips parted slightly, her exquisite face filled with absurdity and disbelief.

"Six years ago, I watched your demon-hunting competition.

Before leaving the Noah Empire for the extraterritorial battlefield, you were only at the Star Core stage.

Even with extraordinary talent, over six years.

You just broke through from Star Core stage to Eternal Life Eighth Stage?"

She even couldn't help but raise her hand and pinch her arm hard.

The sharp pain came, telling her this was not a dream.

"Could my perception be wrong, and actually hundreds of thousands of years have passed?"

Niki couldn't help but murmur softly.

She suspected she had been imprisoned too long, causing her sense of time to be off.

"Teacher Niki, your perception is not wrong, indeed only six years have passed.

As for my realm, it's just some special fortune."

Xu Jingming smiled slightly, without explaining too much.

Niki stared at him blankly.

After a long while, she suddenly 'puchi' laughed out.

Just as she was laughing, her eye sockets slightly reddened.

"Good... good......, there actually is such fortune."

She softly repeated, took a deep breath, and suppressed her surging emotions.

Immediately, her pair of beautiful eyes looked at Xu Jingming, and she pleaded:

"Thank you."

"Back then in the Noah Holy Land, Teacher Niki helped me a lot.

Now I saved you, it's only natural."

Xu Jingming smiled slightly.

However, Niki shook her head, earnestly saying:

"One debt for one debt, the kindness of saving a life cannot be repaid.

If there is any use for me in the future, just command me."

When being pushed onto the banquet hall like a slave, she had already completely despaired.

She had even prepared herself for self-destruction.

Fortunately, fortunately she met Xu Jingming disguised as a demon.

Otherwise, she dare not imagine what fate would await her if she fell into other demons' hands......

"Well then."

Seeing Niki so earnest, Xu Jingming also did not insist, and asked with some doubt:

"Teacher Niki, how were you captured by the demon race?"

"That also is a long story, things are like this."

Niki sighed, and began to describe slowly:

"When I first left the Noah Empire and entered the extraterritorial battlefield.

I originally wanted to wander and find an opportunity for breakthrough.

I didn't expect that not long after, I accidentally fell into an extremely hidden cosmic secret realm.

The secret realm's rules were bizarre, space was chaotic.

I spent nearly six years before barely finding the exit and escaping alive.

But who could have thought, just out of the tiger's den, into the wolf's den.

When I left the secret realm, my divine power was almost exhausted, my state extremely poor.

Before I could recover, I bumped into a demon race squad......

They were numerous, and their leader's strength was not weaker than me at my peak.

I fought desperately, but in the end I was still exhausted and captured.

The following events, you have also seen.

"I was captured and brought to this Illusion Demon Star, used as a spoil of war reward."

"Then you're truly unlucky enough."

Xu Jingming couldn't help but shake his head, then pondered and said:

"Teacher Nikki, I still need to stay in the demon race territory for a period of time.

I cannot send you back to the human race territory immediately.

So during this coming period of time, I still need you to cooperate with me in disguise."

"No rush, no rush, you attend to your important business first.

I'll fully cooperate with the disguise; when your matters are done,

just bring me along on the way back."

Nikki hurriedly spoke up.

Eternal Eighth Stage level.

Invincible Eternal Stage combat power!

Nikki could no longer treat Xu Jingming with her previous attitude.

"Good."

Xu Jingming nodded, took out a World Ring and handed it over:

"Inside are prepared some clothing and resources.

Teacher Nikki, you rest and recover here first; I'll head out first."

Aside from the tattered red dress on her body, Nikki had nothing at all.

A World Ring definitely had to be given.

"Alright, you be careful."

Nikki accepted the ring and nodded.

Xu Jingming spoke no further; with a thought,

his figure swelled once more, entering the Purple Nightmare Demon Body form.

Simultaneously restoring the Thousand Illusions Ice Heart Pendant's disguise, he immediately left the World Ring.

The vast pocket world instantly had only Nikki left alone.

She held that World Ring which still retained the lingering warmth of Xu Jingming's palm.

Standing dazedly in place.

Only feeling that everything that had just happened seemed somewhat unreal.

After a long while, she finally slowly let out a long breath.

"No matter how you put it.

I count as having survived, and there's no other danger for the time being.

But towards Xu Jingming's side, my attitude must be properly set straight."

Nikki silently admonished herself.

The present is different from the past.

Xu Jingming is no longer that Holy Land junior who needed her pointers and care.

But an Invincible Eternal whose strength is unfathomable,

who dares enter this demon race core territory in disguise to lurk and scheme grand plans!

Although she once counted as his half-teacher.

But times have changed; she absolutely cannot interact with the past posture again.

That would be lacking propriety, and moreover courting disaster.

"Additionally, I still have to cooperate with him in disguise within the demon race.

How to cooperate, I still need to think carefully......"

Nikki quickly collected her chaotic emotions, forcing herself to calm down.

She sat cross-legged and began inspecting the items inside the World Ring.

Inside were neatly arranged several sets of clothing and skirts of varying styles.

From elegant long dresses to smart combat attire, all were present; the materials were extraordinary.

Additionally, there were large quantities of precious pills and crystals for restoring divine power and healing injuries.

The quantity was great, the quality high.

Even this veteran Eternal God Spirit was secretly astonished.

"He's actually thoughtful." Nikki took out a plain white long dress and changed into it.

Then swallowed the pills, feeling the gentle medicinal power dissolve within her body.

Nourishing her nearly exhausted divine power.

While regulating her breath, her mind also spun rapidly.

"Disguise......

I am now his slave.

In the demon race, how should a slave behave?

Submissive, fearful, displaying a tamed posture.

Mhm, that should be about right."

She carefully recalled the behavior of other slaves observed during her imprisonment.

Combined with the demon race's habits, bit by bit sketching out the role she should play next.

This is no child's play; it concerns Xu Jingming's plan.

Even more, it concerns her own life and death.

"I must play my part well; I cannot hold him back."

Nikki's gaze gradually grew determined.
