Chapter 971 Black Demon Pearls

He Ziwei looked at Qin Haodong with adoration. At the same time, she also had a shocked and puzzled look in her eyes.

This man had repeatedly given her new insight ever since he appeared. He cooked different dishes and sang a song that she had never heard of before.

Now, he used a very strange divine weapon and killed dozens of masters at the stage of the Combination Realm in the blink of an eye. She really didn’t know what kind of man the marriage mouse had chosen for her.

“This is a weapon left by my master, which can be quite useful sometimes.”

Qin Haodong naturally couldn’t explain what a Gatling gun was. He could only give a vague explanation and then put the gun into his Storage Ring.

The crisis had already been resolved, but He Changqing’s injury was grievous. Thus, they did not continue on their way. Instead, they found a flat place to land on.

Qin Haodong asked the Three-legged Golden Toad to check if there were any ghost slaves of the Ghost King Sect left who were still alive. Then, he began to treat He Changqing.

He checked He Changqing’s injured left arm. The palm strike of Eighth Elder was really powerful. His arm bones had shattered into countless pieces. If it hadn’t been for Qin Haodong, this arm would have been completely disabled.

First, he reconnected the broken bones piece by piece with the Bodhi Hand. Then, he used Rejuvenative Acupuncture to repair the injured meridians. Finally, he gave He Changqing a healing pill so that he could recuperate slowly in three days.

Seeing that her father was fine, He Ziwei’s tensed nerves finally relaxed.

He Changqing said, “Little Qin, we really need to thank you this time. If it weren’t for you, our He Family would really be wiped out.”

Qin Haodong said, “Uncle, you’re too polite. It’s nothing.”

He Ziwei said furiously, “Those people from Ghost King Sect are truly cunning. They have actually hidden in Flame City for so many years. Even the Lord was killed by them.”

He Changqing nodded. “That is true. In recent years, I have felt that there was something wrong with Zhuo Wangsun, but I didn’t expect him to be the Eighth Elder of Ghost King Sect in disguise.”

He Ziwei asked in confusion, “Father, what is this Black Demon Pearl he was talking about? Why did the Ghost King Sect spend so much effort on it? Does our family really have such a treasure?

“There is another thing I don’t understand. With the Ghost King Sect’s strength, they can easily rob our family’s treasures. Why do they have to go through so much trouble? Why did he disguise himself as the Lord for so long?”

“Girl! You’re asking too many questions!” He Changqing looked dotingly at He Ziwei. Then, he continued, “It’s a long story, so I have to start from the beginning.”

“Then tell us. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to leave!”

He Ziwei pulled Qin Haodong over to sit on the opposite side of He Changqing.

Qin Haodong was also very curious about this Black Demon Pearl and was waiting for He Changqing’s answer.

“This matter started from the big battle between the Human and the Alien Demon. At that time, because of the appearance of the Four Spiritual Springs, the Human became stronger and stronger, and more and more masters appeared. They began to launch crazy attacks on the Alien Demons.

“After a series of fighting, the Humans finally captured the palace of Alien Demons and killed the Alien Demon Emperor under the joint attack of seven masters at the final stage of the Grand Completion Realm.”

Qin Haodong thought to himself that the strongest Alien Demon Emperor had been killed by the Yellow Emperor, Chiyou and other ancient masters. The Alien Demon Emperor here should have been re-chosen by the remaining Alien Demons.

Even so, he was strong enough. He could fight against seven masters at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm.

He Changqing continued, “After the Human completely won this battle, everyone began to clean up the battlefields and gathered their spoils.

“The most attractive place for the Human was naturally the treasure house of the Alien Demon Emperor. When people found the treasure house and opened it, they found seven black pearls in strategic locations.

“At first glance, one could tell that these seven pearls were not ordinary. Moreover, they were stored separately. It could be seen how important they were to the Alien Demon Emperor.

“Back then, each of the Seven Families whose strength was very powerful had obtained a pearl. However, no one knew what it was, nor did they know what it was used for.

“Later, people interrogated the surviving royals of the Alien Demon and finally learned it from a housekeeper. These pearls were called Black Demon Pearls that had been refined by the Alien Demon Emperor using all the strength of the whole Alien Demon.

“It turned out that not long ago, Alien Demon Emperor refined this kind of thing when he saw how the Human prospered and the Alien Demon’s gradual decline.

“It was said that by gathering all seven Black Demon Pearls, the God of Demon who was sleeping underground could be awakened, and then the Alien Demon could be reborn.

“However, before these Black Demon Pearls could be used, the armies of the Human charged in.

“After learning about the use of Black Demon Pearls, the Human was extremely terrified. If the sleeping God of Demon was awakened, another calamity would befall the Lingwu Continent.

“After discussion, the Seven Families decided to destroy the Black Demon Pearls. However, no one knew what kind of material they were made of. No matter how hard they tried, they could not destroy them.

“In the end, there was no other way. The Seven Families took the seven Black Demon Pearls away and stored them separately. Although these Black Demon Pearls couldn’t be destroyed, they could not let them be gathered together. The best thing would be for these Black Demon Pearls to disappear forever.”

Speaking of this, He Changqing sighed. “It has been so many years. The Seven Families have all declined. Few people know of the existence of the Black Demon Pearls.

“I don’t know where the Ghost King Sect got the news. They even went to Flame City to find the He Family.”

It was the first time He Ziwei had heard her father talking about this legend, so she listened attentively. After her father was done, she asked, “Father, after talking so much, do we have the Black Demon Pearl?”

He Changqing said, “It’s been so many years. All the stories about the Black Demon Pearls are just legends.

“I guess Ghost King Sect also heard the rumor that our family has the Black Demon Pearl. However, they are not sure, so they want to check on it through Zhuo Wengong’s marriage with you.”

Qin Haodong said, “On the other hand, it shows that the Ghost King Sect values the Black Demon Pearl very much. That’s why they’ve gone through so much trouble to get it.”

He Ziwei hurriedly asked, “What are the two of you playing at? Hurry up and tell me. Does our family have the Black Demon Pearl?”

“Girl, why are you in such a hurry? That thing is not beneficial to us at all.” He Changqing smiled. “Back then, our He Family was one of the Seven Families in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

“It’s just that our family has been declining over the years. Our talents are fewer. We no longer have the glory of the past.”

He Ziwei said in shock, “So, the legend is true. Our family really does have the Black Demon Pearl. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

He Changqing explained, “According to our ancestral teachings, the Black Demon Pearl must be kept a secret. It must not be divulged to outsiders. Why should I tell you?”

He Ziwei tugged at He Changqing’s hand and said, “Hurry up and bring it out. Show me what kind of treasure this Black Demon Pearl is.”

He Changqing said, “This thing is a treasure for Alien Demon. However, it’s a disaster for the Human. What’s there to see?”

He Ziwei pouted and said, “I still want to take a look.”

“Well, I’ll show it to you if you want to see it.”

He Changqing stretched out his uninjured right hand. With a thought, a black pearl that was the size of an egg appeared on his palm.

“Look! This is the legendary Black Demon Pearl that can bring the Alien Demon back to life!”

He Ziwei held the Black Demon Pearl in her palm and took a careful look at it. Then, she asked, “I can’t see anything special about it either. Young Master Qin, you take a look. Is there anything special about it?”

Then, she handed over the Black Demon Pearl. Qin Haodong took it and looked at it. However, he found nothing special, too.

He scanned it with his Spirit again. He was surprised to find that his primordial Spirit could not penetrate the Black Demon Pearl.

The Black Demon Pearl contained extremely powerful energy, but he did not know how to activate it.

After looking at it for a while, he returned the Black Demon Pearl back to He Changqing.

He Ziwei said, “This was a treasure left behind by the Alien Demon. What does the Ghost King Sect want it for?”

“Little Qin, what do you think?”

He Changqing looked at Qin Haodong and asked him as if he was testing him.

Qin Haodong thought for a moment and said, “I think there are two possibilities why the Ghost King Sect wants to rob the Black Demon Pearl.”

He Ziwei said, “Young Master Qin, what are the possibilities? Quick, tell me.”

“The first possibility is that someone in the Ghost King Sect knows how to use the Black Demon Pearls and can get benefits from them.”

He Changqing nodded. “That’s right. What’s the second possibility?”

Qin Haodong said, “Although the Human won the battle against the Alien Demon, we can’t guarantee that the Alien Demon has been completely eradicated.

“The Ghost King Sect is probably the remnant of the Alien Demon. Or, it should be said that it has an unclear relationship with the Alien Demon. Thus, they want to collect the seven Black Demon Pearls, resurrect the God of Demon, and regain control of the Lingwu Continent.”

From a personal point of view, he was more inclined toward the second possibility. No wonder the Ghost King Sect had sent people around recently. Their purpose should be to find information about the Black Demon Pearls.

“That’s right. What you said is exactly what I’m thinking.”

He Changqing was very satisfied with Qin Haodong’s answer. “In short, these Black Demon Pearls are extremely important to the Ghost King Sect. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have spent so much manpower.”

He Ziwei worriedly said, “Then, what should we do? No matter what, we can’t let Ghost King Sect get our Black Demon Pearl.”

Qin Haodong said, “Now we have a Black Demon Pearl. Where are the other six? Will they fall into the hands of Ghost King Sect?”

He Changqing explained, “After the Seven Families won the battle, they were scattered across the entire Lingwu Continent. They no longer interacted with each other and almost forgot about each other’s existence. We don’t even know how they are doing right now.”

Qin Haodong said, “Uncle, does the He Family know which are the six other families?”

He Changqing shook his head, “Back then, our ancestors only wanted to protect this Black Demon Pearl. Everything else has been lost.”

He Ziwei said, “I hope those families won’t be discovered by the Ghost King Sect.”

“The strength of the Ghost King Sect is too strong. This time, only the Eighth Elder came and almost destroyed our He Family. The He Family has already declined since its development to our generation. It has long lost the demeanor and strength of the Seven Families.”

He Changqing sighed, looked up at Qin Haodong, and said, “Little Qin, I can see that you are not an ordinary person. In order to ensure the safety of the Black Demon Pearl, I want to give it to you. What do you think?”
