Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Chapter 1531 will make you even more unhappy

Ye Ge glanced at Sima Qing's corpse behind Karl and said indifferently, "I didn't realize you were so 'loyal'. The boss is dead, and you still risked coming back to collect his body."

Carl chuckled. "Mr. Nightsong, there's no need for such sarcasm. You should know perfectly well what I want, right?"

“I know, isn’t it the Primordial Qilin inside him?” Ye Ge said leisurely, “You demi-humans are really crazy. You cloned and cultivated such a monster. Are you sure you can really control it if it grows up?”

Karl's smile remained unchanged: "Since our demi-human race dares to conduct such an experiment, we naturally have a certain degree of confidence."

Then he raised his hand, and a ball of blue flame burned in his hand.

No, that doesn't seem to be flames...

Ye Ge narrowed his eyes and used his discerning eye to see through the thing.

Floating in Karl's palm was a cluster of numerous, extremely small mechanical units, each thousands of times smaller than the swarm of exploding bees from before.

They huddled together densely, slowly wriggling and coalescing like living things. The eerie blue glow emitted by their mechanical operation intertwined, making them look like a quietly burning blue flame from afar.

Karl flicked his fingertips.

As if summoned, the swarm of nanobees transformed into a stream of dark blue light and burrowed into Sima Qing's mangled corpse.

soon.

Sima Qing's almost completely carbonized body, and the rotting remains on the left side wrapped in black mycelium, began to wriggle irregularly!

Muscles, bones, fascia... under the control of those nanobots, they were forced to move as if pulled by countless invisible threads!

He opened his eyes.

But the movement of those eyes had a chillingly eerie quality to it; the left eyeball rolled upwards, revealing most of the white of the eye, while the right eyeball drooped downwards, staring straight at the ground. The eyeballs moved erratically in their sockets, as if two separate creatures were vying for control within his skull.

Beneath the skin, countless tiny protrusions wriggle and move about, like millions of worms crawling under the skin.

The scene was truly disturbing and made people feel physically uncomfortable.

Ye Ge pondered: 'Those nanomechanical units have actually parasitized his body...'

Sima Qing's muscles and bones moved stiffly like a zombie under the control of countless nanobots. He slowly raised his carbonized right arm, stiffly raised two fingers, and formed an extremely awkward but barely formed hand seal.

Lying on the ground in the distance, Su You and the Black Sword, both possessed, let out a muffled groan at the same time.

The spirits of Taotie and Qiongqi attached to their bodies were forcibly extracted! They transformed into two streams of dark light, which were instantly recalled and sealed back into Sima Qing's corpse!

"The chairman truly deserves to be called the strongest ghost tamer in the history of the myriad races; his body can actually seal so many undead ghosts."

Karl exclaimed in admiration, "This body is simply the perfect vessel for a soul, even in death."

"Hmph." The White Tiger suddenly snorted coldly, his eyes flashing, and he unleashed his holy power!

boom!

Like ancient ice shattering!

The ground beneath his feet exploded with a spiderweb-like crack! Platinum lightning coiled around his powerful body, each arc of electricity tearing through the air with a piercing crackling sound!

"Do you think you can take that thing away smoothly?" Baihu's voice was hard and cold, and the frosty aura around him spread out as if it were a tangible substance, instantly covering the ground with a thin layer of ice crystals!

Karl's eyelids twitched suddenly.

He looked at the three figures: White Tiger, Azure Dragon, and Vermilion Bird.

Especially the White Tiger, whose pure White Tiger Holy Power was now unleashing a sense of oppression that made people feel suffocated.

"Such pure ancient holy power..." Karl felt somewhat incredulous, secretly thinking: 'These three...could they be...?'

However, he didn't show it on his face.

Karl's expression remained calm and elegant. He smiled slightly and said, "Lord Night Song, I advise you to try to persuade the... powerful person beside you."

"You just fought a big battle and are severely weakened. If you fight me now, you won't gain any advantage."

"Furthermore, if I really can't beat you, Lord Night Song, you'll definitely be even more unhappy."

Ye Ge raised an eyebrow: "You can't beat us, so why would I be unhappy?"

“That’s natural.” Karl smiled. “If I can’t beat you, I’ll just have to detonate my Mechanical Heart and blow up this entire secret realm, taking you all down with me.”

"While you may be able to protect yourself, the others in this secret realm, especially those who are currently unconscious and unable to move... well, that's a different story..."

Ye Ge paused for a moment, then turned his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the people lying on the ground in the secret realm.

Long Ying, Nangong Qiuyue, Leng Yuening, Xiao Yuxi, Ququ, the Ye family brothers and sisters, and their senior sisters...

So many people are still in a coma.

Given his current condition, he probably wouldn't be able to protect them all.

Looking at Nightsong's expression, Carl already knew his answer.

He smiled and said, "Well then, Lord Night Song, we shall meet again."

As he spoke, Carl took out a metal card.

He was preparing to summon a mechanical space portal to escape.

However, just as he raised his hand to throw the card, an extremely cold chill suddenly came from behind him!

"Pfft—"

The dull thud of flesh being pierced was exceptionally clear in the silent secret realm.

Karl's pupils contracted sharply, and the elegant and composed smile on his face froze instantly.

He looked down and saw Herka's sword, gleaming with a cold, eerie blue light, piercing through his chest!

The sword tip pierced through his chest, untouched by blood, only its cold metallic gleam shimmering faintly in the night.

Gao Shenxue had no idea when he had arranged twelve Herka mechanical swords around him!

This sword pierced his body directly from behind!

'Oh no...'

Karl thought to himself, 'When did this thing get so close? I didn't even notice...'

Qinglong was also secretly taken aback.

He turned his head and glanced at Gao Shenxue, whose face remained as calm as still water.

When did this little girl set up the sword formation around Karl?

"I also have a mechanical heart. So I know this stuff fairly well."

Gao Shenxue's voice was clear and cold, yet it carried a hint of profound understanding.

She slowly raised her hand, her five fingers loosely clenched: "As long as the nanochannel between your mechanical heart and brain-controlled nerves is blocked, you will not be able to make it self-destruct."

Before he finished speaking, the remaining eleven Herka swords were unleashed simultaneously!

The sword light, like a dark blue rainstorm, rushed towards Karl from all directions!

"!"

Karl's expression changed drastically.
