Lu Shi survived to the end time and time again.
He endured countless hardships and torments, and finally became the last survivor.
When he left the holy land, he personally killed those who had planted the Gu poison in him.
The Heavenly Demon Gu eventually grew into the Heavenly Demon Saint Body, but it could no longer suppress the demonic nature within its heart.
From then on, the world had a new Demon Lord named Lu Shi.
When he saw his reflection in the mirror and realized his hair had turned white overnight, only a cold murderous intent remained in Lu Shi's eyes.
He is incredibly powerful, but whenever he uses his power, he loses his mind and becomes someone else.
So he made a crazy decision.
He wants to strip away his own soul.
He succeeded, and he didn't succeed.
"You seem to still be reminiscing." The white-haired demon lord laughed. "Look how good I was to you. When you wanted to die, I really gave up on you."
Lu Shi raised his head and looked at the other person coldly: "Did you know this day would come?"
"How could that be?" The white-haired demon lord shook his head. "But this place is quite interesting, isn't it? I've learned a lot of new things from you!"
“You…” Lu Shi took a deep breath, forcing himself to be rational. He still needed the Heavenly Demon Saint Body: “What exactly do you want to do?”
"I am you, and I will help you with whatever you want," the white-haired demon lord said lazily. "Don't be so hostile towards me. By the way, do you like that Ye Bugui?"
"Who said that!" Lu Shi never imagined that he would one day have a peaceful conversation with this person.
They had both wanted to kill each other and completely dominate this body.
"So you didn't have him before?" The white-haired demon lord laughed, a maniacal laugh that made Lu Shi feel uneasy. "That's great! Why don't you give him to me? I quite like him."
"Heh, you're useless to him. Once I leave this world, you'll cease to exist and remain sealed away." Lu Shi said without changing his expression, but there was still a tiny bit of displeasure in his heart.
"So what?" The white-haired demon lord's tone suddenly turned fierce. "If I kill him, he can stay here."
“No!” Lu Shi said immediately.
"Why?"
"You don't like him anyway, so it would be better if you gave yourself to me. I like him. Anyway, he likes you."
The white-haired demon lord seemed to be deliberately teasing Lu Shi, determined to get a reason from him.
"He...he likes me?" Lu Shi denied, "You're talking nonsense."
"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you can just ask him in front of him."
With a flick of his hand, the white-haired demon lord cleaved open a space.
Looking through the gap, you could see Ye Bugui wrestling with the man named Ye Tianming.
"I'm off!" the white-haired demon lord said playfully.
"No!" Lu Shi called out to him again. He glared at the other man and finally said the words he had been holding back for a long time: "I... I like him."
"Alright," the white-haired demon lord said with feigned regret.
He suddenly appeared behind Lu Shi and gave him a push: "Go, he needs you now."
...
Ye Bugui looked at the man in front of him, panting heavily. He didn't know how the man could not die.
He had been hitting the other person for a full ten minutes; even a stone should have been shattered by now.
"How are you?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang out behind Ye Bugui.
He turned around and saw Lu Shi.
No, he rubbed his eyes hard, hardly believing what he was seeing.
How can there be two Lu Shis, except that their hair colors are slightly different?
"Which of you is the real one?" Ye Bugui asked, somewhat confused.
The white-haired demon lord had no intention of pretending. He pointed at Lu Shi and said, "Can't you see that our hair colors are different? Hey, the man you found isn't very good at judging people."
Lu Shi's fist hardened as he wondered how many TV dramas this guy had secretly watched while sealed inside him.
Although Ye Bugui looks fierce and is a ruthless fighter, he is actually very innocent.
Upon hearing the white-haired demon lord's words, his ears and face instantly turned as red as apples.
As for Ye Tianming, he was instantly annihilated the moment the White-Haired Demon Lord appeared.

Ye Bugui was now even more bewildered.
It wasn't until Lu Shi, who seemed perfectly normal, walked up to him and called his name that Ye Bugui finally stopped his wild thoughts.
"Perhaps you have something to say to me." Ye Bugui tried to focus his attention on Lu Shi, ignoring the white-haired demon lord beside him.
The white-haired demon lord maintained his indifferent expression, as if he didn't care at all about their conversation.
“I will explain everything to you after we leave here.” Lu Shi paused, then pointed to the white-haired demon lord not far from them: “He is a part of me, the part that belongs to the demon lord.”
At first, Lu Shi was very worried that his ambiguous description might confuse Ye Bugui.
But he soon discovered that Ye Bugui didn't have such worries at all.
As a human being of the new era, he has seen too many elements such as soul fragmentation and two souls in one body in various film and television works.
"So he's on our side?" Ye Bugui felt that the relationship between the White-Haired Demon Lord and Lu Shi seemed somewhat delicate.
"certainly."
The person who answered Ye Bugui's question was the White-Haired Demon Lord. He walked over with a smile, looking very harmless.
But when Ye Bugui discovered that Ye Tianming, who had just been fighting him, had completely disappeared, he knew that he could not underestimate the person in front of him.
“I will help you leave this place,” the white-haired demon lord glanced at Lu Shi, as if giving him a reason for doing so: “If you die here, I will be gone too.”
Lu Shi didn't care about the other party's stance. He only knew that although the White-Haired Demon Lord had no moral compass, he would always keep his promises.
Since he said he would help, he definitely will.
With his help, Lu Shi even suspected that they could clear the dungeon in one night.
“Then we need to meet up with the others now.” Lu Shi glanced at the white-haired demon lord. “Take us there.”
"Take us with you?" Ye Bugui had never witnessed the White-Haired Demon Lord's abilities before. Hearing Lu Shi's words, his face was filled with bewilderment, as if he hadn't expected the White-Haired Demon Lord to be so powerful.
"That's too easy."
The white-haired demon lord tore open space with his hand once again, as if all of this were the most ordinary means in his hands.
"Why is he so strong?" After Ye Bugui stepped into the spacetime rift that appeared out of nowhere, the next second he seemed to have boarded a spaceship and appeared in another space.
Lu Shi shook his head. It wasn't that he didn't know, but explaining it to Ye Bugui would take too much time and effort.
"He is me at my peak." That's all Lu Shi could say.
Ye Bugui nodded knowingly, and seemingly to ease the atmosphere, he joked, "As expected of our Demon Lord, you are simply the most powerful person I have ever met."
Just then, a voice suddenly appeared in Ye Bugui's ear, startling him:
"So you call him Demon Lord in private? Even after all this, he's still not angry. He's really... taking advantage of your favor!"
"Shut up!" Lu Shi was having a headache and wished he could stuff the white-haired demon lord back into his body immediately.
Ye Bugui coughed and once again adopted the strategy of ignoring, pretending that he had not seen or heard anything.
The current owner of this space, Zeng Fugui, was dumbfounded as he looked at the people who had suddenly appeared.
Especially when the two lands were in the area, even with Zeng Fugui's little brain working at lightning speed, he still couldn't figure out what had happened there.
He looked up at them, bewildered, and then slapped himself hard.
“This is not a dream,” Lu Shi said coldly. “It is my magic.”
Zeng Fugui responded with an "oh," though it was unclear whether he truly believed it; at least on the surface, he feigned complete conviction.
The White-Haired Demon Lord did not refute Lu Shi, seemingly believing that this statement was the best excuse to disguise himself.
In Zeng Fugui's space, the name he just muttered to himself in front of the mirror was that of a girl he once had a crush on.
However, after the three people descended from the sky, the girl disappeared without a trace.
Zeng Fugui scratched his head, seemingly a little regretful. He had originally thought he could make up for his disappointment this time!
"So she's become a ghost?" Zeng Fugui asked curiously. "Otherwise, why would she run away as soon as she saw you? That doesn't make any sense!"
"You mean that one just now?" The white-haired demon lord suddenly laughed.
"They are all ghosts, but not the people you think they are; they are ghosts in disguise."
Zeng Fugui finally realized what had happened and felt relieved. The girl he had a crush on was now married with children and living a good life; how could she possibly have become a ghost!
But his joy didn't last long. When he stared at the white-haired demon lord opposite him, his smile suddenly vanished.
Wait... what did this person just say... they're all ghosts...?
“It’s my magic,” Lu Shi repeated. “He’s not a ghost. What about Wei Jin? Did he enter the mirror?”
Just then, a voice rang out behind them.
That was Wei Jin. His voice was icy cold, as if he had become one with this other world.
The white-haired demon lord immediately appeared in front of Wei Jin, and he reached out and placed his hand on Wei Jin's shoulder.
Wei Jin's face stiffened. It wasn't that he felt the white-haired demon lord's actions were offensive, but rather that he was already a ghost, so how could this person touch him?
Can it really be explained by the fact that he was just using Lu Shi's magic?
“I’ve been curious for a long time,” the white-haired demon lord said, scrutinizing Wei Jin with eyes that seemed to pierce through his body and uncover all his secrets: “How can someone who is clearly dead be brought back to life and be just like a living person?”
