Chapter 2737: Slap Your Own Face to Pretend You

The Celestial Pillar Xuanwu had his own thoughts; he could not be controlled by anyone—except Luo Fu, no one could forcibly subdue him!

Zhu Yan and Teng She wanted to use the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu, but that depended on whether the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu was willing.

Now even the Book of Heaven Demons were pulling this trick, and the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu felt somewhat irritated.

"It seems they don't know the meaning of death!"

"Don't get too anxious."

Bai Ze also urged the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu from the side; though he didn't want to come, Lu Ya Dao Ren had repeatedly instructed him to keep the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu calm.

If the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu truly ran into trouble, Luo Fu would never let them off.

Moreover, the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu's resonance was tied to the entire Penglai Immortal Island; the demonic beasts and monstrous beasts trapped within the island were all deeply connected to him.

That was why Bai Ze had always stayed by the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu's side.

"The Book of Heaven Demons, being of the demonic race, dare to act this way—your demonic race truly knows how to handle things," the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu sneered.

Bai Ze knew this matter was their fault, but he couldn't leave now, and the Book of Heaven Demons controlled Ling She Island, which couldn't function without him.

If they couldn't clarify everything at once, the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu would never give up.

"Celestial Pillar Xuanwu, if you leave, do you believe Luo Fu the Saint will ever trust you again? If you cannot remain here, Penglai Immortal Island will descend into chaos!"

Bai Ze didn't believe the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu would dare act recklessly if he invoked Luo Fu as an excuse.

"Bai Ze, don't think I don't know what you're thinking inside—you find it hard to trap me here, and I won't believe only your side of the story!"

The Celestial Pillar Xuanwu wasn't that foolish.

He knew many beings in the Honghuang realm were now troubled; he acted this way to ease Luo Fu's burdens, not because Bai Ze chose to stay.

"You… are unreasonable!"

Bai Ze never expected the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu to say this—no wonder Lu Ya Dao Ren had ordered him to watch over the Celestial Pillar Xuanwu; he was simply too difficult to handle.

No matter who it was, no one could have made things this bad; the more they did this, the more they would drag everything down with them.

Lu Ya Dao Ren never told them to do this—yet now they had to.

"Then what do we do?"

"These people need to understand the truth clearly before any solution can be found."

"Absolutely not!"

Given the location of Bombarding Lingshan, both demonic and witch clans wander there—it's likely they'll be drawn in, and they'll find another way to accomplish it.

What are their concerns? These people still don't truly understand.

"They have concerns?"

"They must have concerns—nothing is impossible. We should find another way; perhaps these people can learn what their concerns are!"

Bombarding Lingshan is unlike any other place.

Zhu Yan and Teng She also believed these people wouldn't change their minds now.

"Why not?"

"Because during this time, they never intended to reveal the truth—once they do, it's like slapping their own faces to pretend they're fat!"

Wherever it is, the matter of Bombarding Lingshan is the demonic race's true core secret.

If the demonic race truly does this, they will be utterly destroyed.

"Does Luo Fu not know either?"
