A nameless mountaintop.

In front of it was an unfathomable canyon, and the canyon was shrouded in a layer of white fog, and the white fog was so misty that it was impossible to see how deep this canyon really was.

At the top of the mountain, there stood a man with his back to his body, he was tall, wearing a golden feather robe, standing with his hands in his hands, and an invisible aura flowed from him.

All around, everything is silent.

"Master, my subordinates are fortunate not to be dishonored, and they have already snatched the Earth Spirit Bead" Behind this person, a man with a beard suddenly appeared, and he knelt down on one knee towards this person.

This bearded man has a rough appearance, fierce eyes, and is not angry but mighty, if Sedum and Tang Xue see this, they will recognize this man as Luo Rulie.

"Well done," said the man who was called his master, said lightly.

"Master, what should we do next?" asked Luo Rulie.

"Naturally, it was to preempt Sedum, Xu Changqing and the others took one step, arrived at the capital of Xu, and snatched the fire spirit bead in their hands," said the man who was called the master.

"It's the master, the little one will definitely get the fire spirit bead," Luo Rulie said.

"Remember, the Demon Respect Building will also appear in Xudu during this time, so don't attract his attention," said the man who was called the master.

"The little one understands," Luo Rulie replied respectfully.

Then he put the earth spirit bead on the ground, turned around and left.

After about a few seconds, the person finally turned around, revealing a slightly pale and gloomy face, and his eyes stared directly at the earth spirit beads on the ground.

"I will do as you instruct, get the spirit beads one by one, I hope that when the time comes, you will be able to do what you say, pull out the demon sword, and release my true body," the man muttered to himself.

Then he picked up the earth spirit bead on the ground, and his whole person slowly turned into nothingness and disappeared.

Anning Village, ancient vine forest.

"You said that there is a demon king behind Luo Rulie, what level is the demon king at," Xu Ran asked.

He felt that things were a bit unexpected to him, Luo Rulie was just an ordinary person who knew how to do martial arts, and he understood it by humanizing demons, but what the hell is there a demon king behind Luo Rulie.

"Demon King, Demon King, King of Demons, what level do you say the Demon King is" Old Man Guto said.

"Okay, young man, I've told you everything I should have told you, and as for what to do, you can do it yourself," said the old man.

"Where is Luo Rulie now?" asked Xu Ran.

"How do I know where Luo Rulie is," the old man asked rhetorically.

Xu Ran: "....".

"Don't you know Luo Rulie's whereabouts," Xu Ran said.

"When did I tell you, I know Luo Rulie's whereabouts" Old Man Guteng said: "I just advise you, don't continue to be obsessed, and want to take the spirit bead, otherwise you will have to worry about your life."

"There is a demon king behind Luo Rulie, if you want to grab food, you will definitely die" After a pause, the old man Gu Teng added.

"How do you know that there is a demon king behind Luo Rulie," Xu Ran asked rhetorically.

The old man said: "Because I felt the breath of the demon king on Luo Rulie's body, and this breath is a little familiar, but I pity my old man who has lived too long and can't remember the owner of this demonic spirit."

Xu Ran: "......".

"Okay, young man, you go, I'm going to rest" After the old man finished speaking, his entire body turned into countless leaves, glowing with green light, and disappeared in front of Xu Ran's eyes.

After the "Demon King" old man Gu Teng left, Xu Ran touched his chin and muttered to himself.

Xu Ran guessed that the so-called demon king should be from the demon world, after all, the alliance between the demon world and the evil spirit world invaded the human world back then, and this time, it is very likely that the demon world did not give up and continued to spy on others.

The Demon King may be equivalent to Chonglou's status in the Demon Realm.

However, the demon world is not as good as the demon world, after all, the demon world and the evil spirit world invaded the world, and they were all suppressed by Shushan, and even the famous Heavenly Demon Emperor was suppressed in the lock demon tower.

And the heavy building demon snatching sword damaged the lock demon tower, and the five elders of Shushan could only stare dryly.

The Demon King may be stronger than any of the elders in Shushan, but when the five elders join forces, the Demon King is not an opponent, so Xu Ran concluded that his strength should be above the Demon King.

And now I just don't know what this mysterious demon king meant by letting Luo Rulie seize the Earth Spirit Bead, could it be that he wanted to rescue the demons in the Lock Demon Tower, prevent Sedum and others from collecting the Five Spirit Beads, and reseal the Lock Demon Tower?

It's quite possible.

However, it is a top-secret thing for Sedum, Xu Changqing and others to go on the road, how did the demon king know.

After a long time, Xu Ran shook his head, the development of things was beyond his control, if he followed the original drama, he should be able to easily get the five spirit beads.

But now it seems that the five spirit beads are not so easy to get.

If the Demon King is really to save the demons who lock the Demon Tower, then the next destination will be the place of the Fire Spirit Bead, that is, the Elysium Xudu, it seems that he has to go to the Xudu as soon as possible.

Then, Xu Ran left the ancient vine forest and flew towards Anning Village.

Soon, Xu Ran landed in Anning Village, this village is very small, full of a strange tranquility, there are not many villagers around, and occasionally a few villagers see outsiders and leave quickly.

Xu Ran was in an inn and found Sedum and his party.

"Hey, buddy, why did you just arrive, we've been waiting for you for a long time" Sedum saw Xu Ran and immediately said.

Xu Ran glanced at Sedum, then looked at Xu Changqing, and said, "Can you talk to Qingwei, I want to see Qingwei."

"You want to see the master" Xu Changqing looked at Xu Ran in surprise and nodded: "Okay, I can help you."

"Come in with me," Xu Changqing turned around and entered the back room.

Xu Changqing took out the special communication instrument for Shushan, and then cast the unique communication spell of Shushan, and after a while, I saw a picture similar to a 3D projection appear in mid-air.

The place where the projection is seen is the meeting hall of Shushan.

"Your Excellency, do you have anything to do with me" After a while, Qingwei appeared in the projector with a smile on her face.

Xu Ran asked, "The Earth Spirit Bead is missing."

"Yes, could it have been taken away," Qingwei asked in surprise.

Qingwei was a little happy in his heart, he couldn't see Xu Ran's origin clearly now, it was best for them to get the Earth Spirit Beads, collect all the Five Spirit Beads to seal the Lock Demon Tower, after all, the Lock Demon Tower cannot be neglected, and none of the demons inside can come out.

Otherwise, the world will be in chaos.

Qingwei was ready, and after the call, he instructed Xu Changqing to secretly look for the Earth Spirit Bead.

"Yes, it was taken away" Xu Ran said very plainly: "It was Luo Rulie who took away the Earth Spirit Pearl, there is a demon king behind Luo Rulie, I want to ask you, is there a demon king in the demon world who has secretly invaded the human world."

"Impossible, the passage between the demon world and the human world, we have people watching at any time, if there is anything abnormal, we will definitely send the news as soon as possible" Qingwei said.

Qingwei couldn't be happy in his heart, in his opinion, it was better for the spirit bead to be obtained by Xu Ran than by a demon king.

There is a saying that if it is not of my race, its heart will be different.

A demon king appeared and instructed Luo Rulie to seize the spirit bead, and the purpose was naturally self-evident.
