Chapter 2784: Unmasking Gui Che

Chi Tie nodded—it was he who had seen Gui Che himself, plotting with Fei Dan, while Jiu Ying was nearby agreeing; if this doesn't count, then what about their earlier conspiracy?

"Gui Che—what the hell is he planning?"

"He must be harboring resentment."

Qin Yuan understood Gui Che's thoughts himself, for the Ling She Island affair had subjected him to severe punishment—three hundred Bone-Slicing Whips had been delivered to Gui Che, and he still hadn't recovered.

Gui Che was the only one among the Ten Great Demon Saints who had ever been whipped on the Punishment Platform.

Gui Che could not pass over the bitterness in his heart; he absolutely had to vent his rage, or else he would surely bring ruin upon the demon race and the entire Honghuang.

Qin Yuan truly wanted to slap Gui Che twice to snap him out of it, but unfortunately, Gui Che no longer listened; once they had been so close, but now it was impossible.

"Tell the Demon Emperor my lord about this as soon as possible—have him come and devise a plan!"

"I dare not," Chi Tie stammered.

"What are you afraid of?"

Qin Yuan didn't understand Chi Tie's hesitation—if something truly went wrong, could he bear the consequences? Moreover, this matter should never have been done in the first place.

Besides, Qin Yuan had already warned Gui Che not to expose themselves.

At least Qin Yuan had thought he and Gui Che were aligned, but now Gui Che had teamed up with Fei Dan and Jiu Ying, completely excluding him—he was furious.

Every one of the Ten Great Demon Saints had eight hundred scheming hearts; unity was impossible.

Precisely because of this, they had no choice but to act this way; because of the current situation, they had to resolve it, and they could not break this rule.

If it could be done, that would be best; now they should at least devise an explanation.

"That's different!"

"It's not just because of Gui Che and Fei Dan—we must protect the demon race, and only by doing this can we survive; you must listen to me."

"Fine!"

Qin Yuan felt Chi Tie was in trouble now, but even if he spoke up, someone still had to act—and that someone could only be Chi Tie, not himself.

If Dong Huang Tai Yi and Di Jun truly learned of this news, they would fly into a rage—could they still capture Bombarding Lingshan?

With the Ten Great Demon Saints so disunited, the chance of capturing Bombarding Lingshan was nearly zero.

"Leave it to fate!"

All of this is fate; whether they can act is not the main issue—if they must resolve it now, they must obey, and they themselves must find a way to handle it.

If change were possible, that would be good; what they feared was that they could not change it now.

Gui Che had never forgotten Ling She Island—he hated it with his very soul.

Fei Dan could help them resolve the Ling She Island matter and recapture the Heaven-Script Demon and the Flame Mouse; Gui Che already knew they were behind it.

Only after Gui Che vents this bitterness will he have the heart to properly handle the matter.

"If you don't let me vent this anger, then our current alliance means nothing!"

"Fine!" Fei Dan agreed.

Jiu Ying also understood Gui Che's thoughts and had no intention of exposing him.

But no matter what happened afterward, Gui Che and Fei Dan would never agree—Jiu Ying could only find his own solution.

"With our three powers, can we capture Bombarding Lingshan? I heard the Chaos Eight Trigrams Tower has appeared—should we seize it?"

"Are you serious?"

"Absolutely true!"

Gui Che heard Zhu Jiuyin's words, and his eyes lit up!
