Chapter 912: Dual Sacred Body
This was far too generous. This was the strongest magical treasure in the land. However, what shocked everyone even more was that the old monster, upon catching the energy cannon, acted as if it had burned his hands. He immediately tossed it over to Senior Brother Zhao Kuangren.
"A man without sin still suffers if he carries a coveted treasure." The old monster wore a bitter expression as he said, “Master, this disciple has shallow blessings and is already old. I’m not worthy of such a supreme treasure. It’s better if Senior Brother keeps it.”
Zhao Kuangren held the energy cannon and stood stunned. Li Xiaofei couldn’t help but feel amused and exasperated. This old monster was truly the epitome of caution. He had taken it to the extreme.
A treasure like this would be fought over desperately, so he didn’t want it. Still, this was a survival tactic. And more than that, it was great wisdom. Throughout their journey, Li Xiaofei’s view of the old monster had been repeatedly reshaped.

Yes. They referred to this aura, one that belonged to the Reapers, as Demonic Qi. This had always been a small point of confusion for Li Xiaofei. Since this continent had been created as a testing ground by the Reapers, it would have made more sense for them to shape the Reapers as divine beings to be revered by all humans here.
Yet the people of this land regarded the Reapers as demons. How interesting. Li Xiaofei did not interfere with Envoy Zou. He wanted to see what tricks this so-called envoy from the forbidden lands would try.
As the Demonic Qi surged and churned, a streak of dark light shot out, like a tendril, spreading across the area. But it did not target Li Xiaofei. Instead—
“Aaah...”
