9925. Chapter 9925: Exploring the Ghost Pond 10

However, his inner strength and dignity have always kept him indifferent, and he never showed his weakness to others, because he is the Demon Emperor. As an emperor, how can he let others laugh at him? He is not a person who gives up easily, and he will not succumb to others and become someone else's loyal dog. That is not the result he wants. He is unwilling, so he wants to resist. Even if he fails, at least he has tried and will not regret it.

At this moment, the surroundings are quiet, without any sound. The Demon Emperor sat on the ground blankly, with countless thoughts and sighs in his heart. Perhaps only at this time, he has the opportunity to show his weakness. When facing outsiders, he is still the unsmiling Demon Emperor.

However, the Demon Emperor did not find that Leng Xuan had been secretly observing him and watching his every move. Especially when he saw the look on the Demon Emperor's face, he was a little surprised. Since he knew the Demon Emperor for so long, he has never seen the Demon Emperor show such a weak side.

After a slight daze, he suddenly shook his head and smiled, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth. No matter who you are, there will be a weak side in your heart, it depends on whether you are willing to show it.

Looking at the Demon Emperor, he actually understood that feeling in his heart. In front of outsiders, he has always remained strong and never given in. Even in the face of many difficulties, he has never backed down. Because he knows very well that everyone is counting on him. If he shows a little weakness, it will affect everyone's emotions. Therefore, he must be firm in his beliefs.

When everyone first does something, they rely on impulse and preference. However, when people gradually grow up, impulse turns into responsibility, and they can no longer act according to their own preferences.

Now he is unable to retreat because of too many responsibilities on his shoulders, and can only move forward step by step. Even he himself does not know where the end of this road is, so he can only grope step by step and move forward carefully.

While thinking, he suddenly felt that the space around him was rapidly distorted.

Then, a bright light flashed before his eyes. In an instant, he found that his consciousness returned to his body.

Feeling the cold water around him, Leng Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally escaping from the illusion. He lowered his head and looked at the Heaven and Earth Essence Stone tightly held in his hands. He gritted his teeth and all the strength in his body surged out.

"Rise!" With a light spit, the Heaven and Earth Essence Stone buried deep at the bottom of the Ghost Immortal Pool finally rose slowly. Looking at the Heaven and Earth Essence Stone that was completely exposed, Leng Xuan was delighted and quickly put away the hard-won Heaven and Earth Essence Stone. Then, he stretched out his body and swam quickly towards the top. Not long after, he passed by the Demon Emperor again.

However, what surprised him was that the Demon Emperor still maintained the same appearance as before, as if he had not yet escaped from the illusion. Without thinking too much, Leng Xuan quickly swam past him and arrived outside the Ghost Immortal Pool.

With the things in hand, Leng Xuan naturally had no interest in staying any longer, and immediately fled with the Heaven and Earth Essence Stone.

Shortly after he escaped from the palace, the Demon Emperor in the Ghost Immortal Pool trembled all over, as if struck by lightning. His body kept twitching and a trace of blood slowly flowed out from the corner of his mouth and mixed into the cold pool water.
