Sikong Jing still would not say it was the work of the Demon Puppet Guardian; instead, he found an excuse... Indeed, with such terrifying rules and power within the prison, it would be a miracle if Chai Gong discovered anything.
But this excuse made Chai Jiu, who was beside Chai Ren, burst into rage and say, "Nonsense, you just reached the Emperor Martial Stage."
What does reaching the Emperor Martial Stage have to do with agreeing to a condition? Even if it did, it wouldn't be done inside a prison.
The Black Scale Demon had just broken through the Spiritual Martial Lock, too.
To this, Sikong Jing replied indifferently, "My Spirit Shadow had long ago reached the level needed to break through to the Emperor Martial Stage. I only intentionally delayed my breakthrough until now. After all, breaking the Spiritual Martial Lock would be noticed by you quickly."
"Once my Spirit Shadow reaches the Emperor Martial, the first Demon Vein Master fulfills the condition promised to me."
