Ao Zhan looked at Mulu King and pondered in secret. Based on what Xiao Hua had said, along with Zhu Mei's behavior, he could more or less conclude that Mulu King had indeed concealed something—and even Zhu Mei did not know about it! Of course, he could not be certain whether Zhu Mei truly did not know. At this moment, Ao Zhan was in an extremely difficult position. Although Xiao Hua would not compete with him for the True Dragon Blood, Xiao Hua was unwilling to tell him how to leave. Clearly, this was Xiao Hua's secret. To leave the Yi Ze Realm, he would still have to rely on Mulu King's token. Yet he could not be sure that, even if he seized the token from Mulu King, he would know how to use it. Moreover, even if he captured Mulu King, whether he could obtain a way out of the Yi Ze Realm from Mulu King's memories remained unknown! Perhaps Ao Zhan hoped some change would occur after he obtained the True Dragon Blood, but he did not dare pin his hopes on that. He did not dare gamble with his own life and Ao Qing's life. Besides, Zhu Mei was standing nearby. He was not completely confident he could capture Zhu Mei.
"Why are you being so long-winded?" Ao Qing said coldly. "Xiao Hua, Ao Shuai already explained how you came to bear a grudge against one another. To be honest, that hardly counts as any deep-seated enmity! Wasn't it just some lousy Heavenly Horse? Was there any need to go this far?"
"Yes, yes, the Young Prince is absolutely right!" Old Demon Zhi Feng hurriedly declared his stance. "Actually, it was all because I was too shallow-minded before and schemed too much against Fellow Immortal Xiao.
