By the time Qin Zhen was finally satisfied and had filled the Qiankun Ring with all the ingredients she wanted, Huai Xu had already dealt with the dragon traitor and the white-bearded elder.

Looking at his exhausted fellow apprentices lying in disgraceful manner on the steps of the Demon Palace, he walked up lightly and covered each of them with a small blanket.

He was also very careful to place each blanket over his belly button, then nodded in satisfaction.

Jingxing glanced lazily at Huaixu first: "Have you finished dealing with everything?"

"Yeah." Huai Xu responded.

As a steady eldest brother, he could not do what his junior brothers and sisters did, collapsing on the steps of the Demon Palace like dried salted fish.

"Big Brother, please sit down."

But when Qin Zhen saw Huai Xu, she quickly patted the steps beside her, signaling him to come over quickly.

Huai Xu hesitated for a moment.

But in the end, he still walked over slowly under Qin Zhen's earnest gaze.

However, he did not lie down like everyone else. Instead, he bent his long legs and sat next to Qin Zhen.

Huai Xu has always been dignified and elegant. Even if he is just sitting casually on the steps like this, he looks more elegant than ordinary people.

"!" Ning Po, who was lying at the edge, saw this and his eyes suddenly lit up.

In fact, he didn't like lying lazily in front of people like this, it made him feel very insecure.

It was just that the senior sister had good intentions and insisted on pulling him to lie down. He was embarrassed to refuse, so he could only lie down reluctantly.

But he couldn't relax at all. In fact, because he was lying down, his nerves were even more tense than usual. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to respond to the emergency as quickly as possible.

So everyone else was lying there like a dead fish, but he was the only one lying there like a zombie, stretching himself straight as if he would come back to life in the next second.

Seeing that the eldest brother was not lying down, he immediately sat up. At least now there were two people who were not lying down, so they were not so conspicuous and prominent.

Seeing that no one was looking at him, Ning Po felt a little happier.

Qin Zhen did see it out of the corner of her eye, but she simply thought that the third senior brother was too excited to see the eldest senior brother, so she didn't take it seriously.

"What's going on with those people from the Dragon Clan?" Jingxing was very concerned about this issue.

Huai Xu fell silent after hearing this.

"Is this question difficult to answer?"

Huai Xu sighed softly: "Those few were all circling around the fake Jin Bao, so naturally they were also possessed by him."

"Have you ever possessed someone else's body?" Qin Zhen noticed this word and found it a little unusual.

"One of the characteristics of the Sky Demon Clan is that they can take over a person's body and destroy his consciousness, thus replacing him. They can also leave behind the other person's consciousness after successfully taking over their body, thus controlling them."

Qin Zhen knew about this matter, but she didn't think about it that way for a while.

"I know that for those whose bodies are successfully possessed, even if the possessor has left their bodies, their consciousness will be marked with a spiritual imprint, and they will instinctively submit to the possessor and be used by him."

Huai Xu nodded, feeling a little headache: "This is the situation with them. They have been possessed by other bodies, but their bodies and souls are still those of the dragon clan, so it is a bit tricky to deal with them."

"Difficult? Because they wanted to kill you, not out of their own will, but were used by the Sky Demon Clan. So those dragons want you to show mercy to them?"

After hearing this, Jingxing finally understood why Huaixu sighed just now.

After realizing this, he became a little angry.

When Qin Zhen saw her second senior brother acting like this, she shut up very tactfully and didn't ask any more questions.

Xiang Qing, who always knew how to handle things, quietly moved to the side, trying to create some distance between himself and the murderous Jing Xing.

Fortunately, Jing Xing never took his anger out on others when he was angry. He just looked at Huai Xu with a stern face.

"It is a fact that you almost died. Regardless of their wishes, you can sympathize with them emotionally, but you don't need to hold back when it comes to dealing with them. If you show mercy this time, there will definitely be trouble later."

Huai Xu knew that Jing Xing would be angry because the people of the Qilong tribe had made things difficult for him.

Instead of being really mad at him.

"Yeah, I know, don't worry, I've taken care of it."

Since they beg for mercy, let's do as they wish and spare their lives.

But in its place came - a heavier punishment.

All the people had their dragon scales stripped off and were thrown into the dragon clan’s forbidden area.

"Are you sure it's been handled?" Jing Xing was still afraid of his senior brother and was a little indecisive.

If he hadn't thought that this was an internal affair of the Dragon Clan, he would have taken action long ago.

When Huai Xu heard this, he thought of the expressions of fear and regret on the faces of those who begged for mercy after hearing his verdict, and nodded affirmatively: "Yes."

You know, entering the dragon clan’s forbidden land alive and being tortured might be worse than death.

Those who begged for mercy never imagined that this would be the result.

They thought that the Huaixu righteous monks must be very kind and would be lenient with the case considering their pleas for mercy.

Who would have thought that although he seemed to have agreed to their conditions, he actually put them in a dilemma.

They regretted it, but they couldn't blame Huai Xu.

After all, he agreed to their request under their entanglement.

Now they want to go back on their word. Are they trying to challenge the patriarch's authority again and again?

How big are their faces?

It was obvious that Huai Xu did not use bloody means to suppress everything this time like he did when he first returned to the tribe, but they still felt again that Huai Xu was really not as easy to control as the former tribe leader.

If you try to cross the line, you must bear the consequences.

If they demand severe punishment, Huai Xu might be more lenient.

Huai Xu put the matter of the dragon clan behind his mind and spoke seriously again: "There is a problem with the spiritual mark in their sea of ​​consciousness."

Qin Zhen and the others' ears pricked up instantly.

After all, for a man as steady as Huai Xu, the problem he judged must not be a small one.

"What happened to that mental mark?" Qin Zhen asked proactively.

"The demon who possessed them is dead. He was the one Jingxing and I killed in the Dragon Tomb. Logically, his control over them should have disappeared under such circumstances, but the mental mark still exists."

"Even after that man died, they still followed the instructions he gave them in the beginning and attacked me at the appropriate time."

At this moment, everyone frowned.

"How is this possible?" Xiang Qing couldn't help but mutter.

After all, this is somewhat beyond the common sense they currently have.

At least, before they found these people, their consensus was—

Once the demon whose body he has possessed dies, the spiritual imprint of the person whose body he has possessed will disappear and he will regain his freedom.
