It was hard to imagine that the extremely beautiful woman before them was the Demonic Lord's sword, the Seven Deadly Sins.
"An interesting person."
The beautiful woman looked at Jun Xiaoyao, her eyes filled with curiosity and interest.
She truly hadn't seen someone like him in a very long time.
"But, if she's a Soul, why does it feel… not quite right?"
Oriental Aoyue furrowed her Phoenix brows.
If the beautiful woman was a Soul, she should have been able to sense it immediately.
After all, there was a certain difference between a Soul and a true living being.
Although the Soul of an Immortal Artifact might be more human-like than an ordinary Soul.
There should still be a distinction.
"How should I put it? Saying she's a Soul is right, and saying she isn't is also right."
Jun Xiaoyao's eyes beneath the bronze ghost mask were deep.
"This…"
Oriental Aoyue was somewhat stunned.
"She is not merely a Soul, or rather, she was once a person," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Your perception is indeed not bad."
The beautiful woman smiled slightly.
"What, a living person…"
Oriental Aoyue was also surprised.
The Soul of the demon sword seven deadly sins was once a living person!
Could it be that the Demonic Lord forcibly refined a living person into the Soul of his demon sword?
Thinking of this, even Oriental Aoyue frowned slightly.
Although she was equally cold and ruthless, the Demonic Lord's methods were indeed worthy of his title.
"My name is Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling, and I am indeed the Soul of the demon sword seven deadly sins," the woman named Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling said.
She then looked at Jun Xiaoyao and Oriental Aoyue, her eyes shifting.
"I didn't expect you two to hide so deeply and have such a grand scheme for the Doomsday Divine Sect."
Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao and Oriental Aoyue both frowned slightly.
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling knew their true identities, which might be a bit troublesome.
If it were revealed, their plan would be greatly affected.
However, surprisingly.
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling smiled again and said, "But what does that have to do with me? I'm just a Soul."
"Besides Lord Demonic Lord, what else is worth my concern?"
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling smiled indifferently.
What about the Doomsday Divine Sect? What did it have to do with her?
Even if the Doomsday Divine Sect was annihilated, it wouldn't affect her in the slightest.
She didn't care.
Seeing Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling's expression, Jun Xiaoyao, beneath the bronze ghost mask, seemed to be in thought.
Logically speaking, Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling was once a living person.
If it was truly the Demonic Lord who forcibly refined her into the Soul of the demon sword.
Then Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling should only have intense hatred for the Demonic Lord.
Or had the Demonic Lord completely filtered out Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling's hatred?
Then, he decided to test her, making a move.
That was to remove the bronze ghost mask from his face.
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling looked at him and was immediately stunned!
"Lord Demonic Lord!"
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling couldn't help but exclaim, her emotions fluctuating.
It was a contrast to her previous calm demeanor.
Oriental Aoyue also glanced at Jun Xiaoyao, her eyes revealing a strange look.
Did he really resemble the Demonic Lord that much?
Jun Xiaoyao himself was skeptical.
After all, before, the Demonic Consort Qu Hongluan had also mistaken him for the Demonic Lord.
Was he really that similar?
"No, you're not…"
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling was a bit lost, muttering.
Although Jun Xiaoyao, in both appearance and temperament, had similarities to the Demonic Lord in her memory.
But…
It was still not him.
Perhaps it was just a coincidence, an accident.
Just a similar flower.
"What is your relationship with the Demonic Lord, and why did you become the Soul of the demon sword seven deadly sins?"
Jun Xiaoyao inquired, a hint of curiosity in his heart.
After all, Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling's reaction to the Demonic Lord seemed different.
Was she really just the Soul of the demon sword, that simple?
"Are you willing to hear a story?"
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling said faintly.
Once upon a time, there was a woman who was born with a special Physique.
Named the Seven Deadly Sins Physique.
This Seven Deadly Sins Physique was a symbol of misfortune.
Anyone who came near her would have their inner sins provoked.
Therefore, from a young age, the woman suffered various insults, oppressions, beatings, and scoldings.
Finally, she entered a pleasure house, becoming a Lin Ren who sang songs.
And then, the woman discovered.
Every now and then, a man with a mask on his face would quietly sit in the back row, listening to her sing.
Moreover, unlike other customers who had various thoughts about her.
The masked man seemed to only want to listen to her sing.
He would always sit there quietly, without saying a word.
But the woman could feel that beneath the mask, the man's gaze was clean and peaceful.
Over time, a feeling of love began to blossom in the woman's heart.
It was hard to imagine that she would fall in love with a man she had never spoken a word to, and whose appearance she didn't even know.
But then.
A Prince of a Great Imperial Dynasty set his sights on the woman.
He wanted to use her Seven Deadly Sins Physique as a Cauldron to Cultivate a Divine Ability Cultivation Technique.
So she was abducted.
The woman resisted desperately, even going so far as to destroy her Physical Body.
The Prince was furious.
"You are nothing but a Lin Ren, what do you need this chastity for? Why not become my Cauldron and enjoy all the riches and glory?"
However, the woman was only stubborn.
Although she was a Lin Ren, she had someone in her heart.
Then.
The masked man appeared.
Holding a sword in his hand.
With one sword stroke, the entire Imperial Dynasty instantly turned to dust.
Looking at the masked man, the woman realized how extraordinary his identity, origin, and strength were!
"I will help you reshape your Physical Body," the masked man said indifferently.
However, the woman refused.
She knew that, given her status, wanting to have a relationship with him was simply a pipe dream.
She didn't even have the qualifications to be his maidservant.
Finally, the woman requested that her Soul be transformed into a Soul and merged into the man's sword.
This way.
She could accompany the masked man in another way.
The masked man was silent, and finally nodded.
"This is my story. How is it? A bit ordinary and boring, isn't it?"
Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling smiled.
Jun Xiaoyao was silent.
Oriental Aoyue was also very surprised after listening.
She had initially thought that the Demonic Lord had forcibly refined this woman into a Soul through some means.
Now it seemed, this was instead a somewhat poignant and regretful story.
The world regarded the Demonic Lord as a symbol of evil and demons.
But from this story, was the Demonic Lord truly a heinous Devil King?
Jun Xiaoyao was genuinely curious about this Demonic Lord, who was as famous as the Three Teachings founders and whom he had never met.
"Although your story is moving, now, isn't the Demonic Lord already…" Oriental Aoyue said.
"Are Lord Demonic Lord's methods that simple?" Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling said.
Hearing this, Jun Xiaoyao and Oriental Aoyue exchanged glances, their eyes filled with subtle light.
Could it be that the Demonic Lord's hidden moves were not that simple?
"The Demon Monarch Origin is just one of Lord Demonic Lord's methods," Seven Deadly Sins Yao Ling said.
"Indeed…"
Jun Xiaoyao sighed.
These ancient powerhouses, each of them was incredibly astute in their methods.
