Targeted by Mobius

Continuing from the previous episode:

——

"As for Akaza, he can actually walk in the sunlight... Is it because he got rid of the side effects of the demon after Martial Soul Awakening? Or did his body mutate during the process of traveling through worlds?"

Wu Tong looked ahead and saw Akaza sitting leisurely in the sun, with his "tattoo" disappearing from his body.

If Wu Tong hadn't known that this guy was Akaza, he wouldn't have dared to be sure, after all, the changes in this guy were just too great.

After all, the demons in the Demon Slayer World are like vampires in Western mythology. They cannot walk in the sunlight and can only travel through the world in the dark of night. They are purely nocturnal creatures, and once they come into contact with sunlight, they will be burned to ashes by the sun.

"Forget it, what does it have to do with me? After I get the World Coordinate from him, I'll just hand them over to Mobius and the others as test subjects. I bet they'll be very happy to see this almost immortal test subject."

"Moreover, given the crimes he has committed, he deserves to die eight hundred times over. He's just being used as an experimental subject now, which is already a good deal for him."

"Xiao Bai that almost never dies? Then what about it? Which one of those people over there is the Xiao Bai you're talking about?"

Mobius's voice suddenly rang in Wu Tong's ears.

The voice was slightly distorted, but it contained an undisguised excitement and agitation.

"Um... did I just say what was on my mind?"

Upon hearing Mobius's voice, Wu Tong looked down and saw the green-haired little devil in front of him.

He was stunned for a moment, and his gaze shifted to the crowd around him.

Seeing Wu Tong's expression, everyone immediately nodded, confirming his idea.

After receiving a definite reply, Wu Tong suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of shame, as if he wanted to dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.

Where did I begin?

"Let's get to the unexpected surprise. Don't change the subject. Tell me quickly, which one of those people over there is my dear Xiao Bai?"

Mobius gave a casual reply, then stared intently at Wu Tong.

Almost impossible to die—is it lifespan, time, or resilience...?

Any of these are possible.

What exactly does Wu Tong mean by "not dying"?

However, it seems that either aspect can be of great help to my research.

This is really something to look forward to. It seems that my decision to come to this world with Wu Tong was indeed the right one. It hasn't been long since he found something that interests me.

Judging from this perspective, it seems that pursuing my Infinite dreams is not impossible.

Seeing Mobius's fervent gaze, Wu Tong expressed his understanding. After all, anyone who knows Mobius knows her pursuit of the Infinite.

While demons can't be said to be immortal, they certainly possess a strong degree of immortality. Given this ability, it's not surprising that they've caught the eye of Mobius.

After regaining his senses, Wu Tong gestured to Mobius and said, "Look, that skinny boy with short pink hair and golden eyes is your target. But don't rush, I need to take something from him, and then he'll be yours."

Immediately afterwards, Wu Tong shifted his gaze to Elysia and the others, looking them in the eye and saying:

"Don't worry, this guy is no good. His race needs to eat people, and he has killed countless people. He wouldn't be too bad if he died a hundred times. Even death row inmates are more humane than him, so there's no need to feel sorry for him."

Upon hearing this, Elysia and the others' eyes gradually hardened.

"Let's hurry up and go, I can't wait to see my Xiao Bai ~".

After Wu Tong finished speaking, Mobius couldn't wait to set off.

Seeing this, Wu Tong decided not to watch the show any longer. Since such a treasure as smugglers had appeared, they couldn't be allowed to escape.

Although these people can't escape, it's still best to be cautious to be on the safe side.

"Alright, in that case, let's go and see those two stowaways who smuggled themselves into our world."

After saying that, Wu Tong put away the Soul Tool that had been concealing the group's presence and led them toward Shrek and the direction of Snake Granny Sun.

——

Meanwhile, Shrek and his group, who were confronting Snake Granny, were obviously unaware of Wu Tong's inner thoughts, let alone that some of them had already been targeted by Wu Tong.

The two groups remained locked in a tense standoff, each vying to obtain the Spirit Ring of the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent on the ground.

"... Brother Zhao, now that you understand, can you return this Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent to us?"

Chao Tianxiang spoke first, asking Zhao Wuji and the others for the Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent, and showing them evidence that she had injured the Spirit Beast.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Wuji, this barbarian, was completely unmoved by Chao Tianxiang.

At this moment, Zhao Wuji, facing Chao Tianxiang's demands, slowly said, "Senior Snake Granny, this matter is probably a bit difficult to handle."

Chao Tianxiang frowned and stared at Zhao Wuji, saying, "Brother Zhao, so you're saying you don't want to return this Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent to us, my grandson and my granddaughter?"

Standing next to Chao Tianxiang, Meng Yiran couldn't help but speak up, "What's so difficult about this?"

We were the ones who discovered this 4,000-year- Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent first. If we hadn't already injured it, would you have been able to get it so easily?

Give it back to us right now, or don't blame me for being rude.

As she spoke, she raised the snake-head cane in her hand.

Before Zhao Wuji could speak, Ma Hongjun spoke up first, "Miss, you're wrong. In this Star Dou Great Forest, all the Spirit Beast are ownerless."

Perhaps you were the ones who first discovered this thousand-year- Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent and injured it, but in the end, it was we who caught it.

It's unfair of you to insist that it belongs to you. While it may suit you better, it would also suit one of my brothers very well.

These relatively gentle Spirit Beast have been a great help to my brother's Martial Soul.

Upon Meng Yiran Ma Hongjun's face instantly turned cold. "You really have a thick skin. How can you say such a thing?"

"This Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent is at least four thousand years old. If you want to swallow it, aren't you afraid of breaking your teeth?"

"Besides, no matter how well you're suited for this Spirit Beast, can you possibly be more suitable than my Martial Soul, the Serpent Cane? I refuse to believe that your Martial Soul are also related to Martial Soul!"

That's right, this Phoenix-tail Crested Serpent is at least four thousand years old.
