Chapter 542 Encounter
After advancing for a certain distance again, Gan Jue and the others had already finished the narrow road, and what was left in front of them was a huge blood-colored lake and the exit of Hell Road about a kilometer above the lake.
However.
Perhaps Gan Jue's inner voice was too strong. When they came to the end, the world actually gave him a surprise, but only Qian Jue knew whether it was a surprise or a shock.
They saw a proud figure dressed in a black gown inlaid with gold, wearing a nine-curved purple gold crown, exuding a noble and majestic aura, suddenly appeared in their sight.The other party sat cross-legged on top of the hot and restless sea of blood, his figure rippling slightly with the tumbling of the sea of blood. It seemed that he had been in this state for an unknown amount of time.
Bibi Dong!Why is Bibi Dong here? !
Gan Jue was shocked, and then suddenly recalled what Hu Liena had said: The one who is currently in charge of the Wuhun Empire is just a clone of Bibi Dong.Her real body no longer knew where to go to retreat, and she was about to hit the final divine test.
It turns out that the place where Bibi Dong retreated is actually the hell road in this killing capital?
That's right, Tangchen Shura God's inheritance failed because of Raksha God's intervention, which shows that there is indeed a Raksha God in the capital of killing.And Bibi Dong is also the God of Killing who went out of the City of Slaughter, so it is very likely that Bibi Dong's inheritance of the Rakshasa God was even obtained in the City of Slaughter, so it is not surprising that she appears here.
But why didn't Tang San meet Bibi Dong when he passed this hell road?If they met, then Tang San might not be able to leave here at all
After thinking about it for a while, Gan Jue couldn't figure out the reason behind it, and could only think about it. After throwing these thoughts out of his mind, he looked at the noble figure with his eyes closed, and quickly made a silent gesture to Tang San and Su Jiuer, not daring to make the slightest movement.
The current ones would definitely not be Bibi Dong's opponents.How far they are now from Limit Douluo can be felt from Tang Chen before.If Tang Chen really attacked them with all his strength, I'm afraid none of the five people before them would be able to survive.So now Gan Jue can only pray in his heart, praying that Bibi Dong practiced too much and immersed himself, so he didn't find them.Or at some critical moment, they couldn't take action against them and let them leave sadly.
However, for a Limit Douluo, no matter how devoted she is to her cultivation, if there are other threats nearby, she will feel it immediately.So when Gan Jue and the others rode the wolf spirit and floated a certain distance towards the exit of the cave roof, Bibi Dong suddenly opened his eyes.
A powerful aura suddenly emanated from Ah's body, causing the sea of blood below to roll.She raised her head, and after seeing Qian Jue and Tang San clearly, she finally spoke:
"It's the two of you?"
Bibi Dong's red lips parted slightly, and she spoke lightly.She didn't see any movement, she just got up, and quickly came to the top of Gan Jue and the other three, looking down at them from top to bottom.
After Gan Jue heard this voice, his heart sank suddenly, he stopped fleeing, and at the same time withdrew the blue platform under his feet.
Tang San and Su Jiu'er had their feet empty, and quickly mobilized their soul power to stabilize their figures. They were somewhat puzzled, but at this time, naturally they would not ask Gan Jue, and could only solemnly look up at the mighty Bibi Dong together with him.
Gan Jue took a deep breath, bowed slightly to Bibi Dong who was in the air, and saluted.
"Junior Gan Jue, pay homage to His Majesty the Pope."
Bibi Dong didn't answer Gan Jue, but just looked at them condescendingly.But such an attitude of not speaking, on the contrary, put more pressure on Gan Jue and the others, not knowing what the other party was thinking.
"Is your teacher okay?"
After a long while of silence, Bibi Dong finally spoke and asked the first question.Seeing that the master was still the one Bibi Dong cared about the most, Gan Jue breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Bibi Dong still cared about the master, it was still possible to be lenient towards them.
Nodding his head, Gan Jue spoke slowly:
"Fortunately, the teacher is now in charge of training the soul masters of the Star Luo Empire on the front line, and life is not bad."
"That's good"
After Bibi Dong nodded with some emotion, she silently looked at Gan Jue and Tang San, but it was Su Jiuer who had the highest spirit power, but Bibi Dong basically ignored her.
After a while, Bibi Dong seemed to have made up her mind, and sighed slightly:
"I didn't want to fight with you, but Xiaogang's vision is really good. You have grown so fast, and you have obtained the inheritance of the gods early. If you don't seize this chance today, I'm afraid you will catch up with me when we meet again next time. Therefore, I'm afraid I won't be able to let you go today."
Bibi Dong, as she spoke, gradually exuded a huge aura, and nine soul rings, eight black and one red, slowly emerged under her feet, as if she was about to strike immediately.
"Etc., etc,!"
Gan Jue hastily stretched out her hand, wanting to save it again:
"Aunt Bibidong, in fact, we really don't need to draw our swords to face each other."
"."
Hearing Gan Jue calling her Aunt Bibidong, Bibidong frowned, and actually stopped.It's just that he still didn't speak, just looked at Gan Jue lightly, waiting for Qian Jue's next words:
"Yes, because I know that your core is not facing the Spirit Hall, am I right?!"
When Gan Jue was arguing with Bibi Dong on the surface, he had already input a wave of soul power into the space dragon scales, and at the same time, his spiritual power quietly contacted Tang San and Su Jiu'er:
"Teacher Xiaosan, after I send you out later, you run away immediately, the speed of the teacher is faster, Xiaosan, let the teacher take you."
"What about you?! Brother Jue, how could I leave you alone and leave alone? Let's fight it out. City Lord Su has a strength of level 97. My dual martial spirits and the Thirteen Halberds of the Sea God will definitely not be weak. Brother Jue, you should be similar. Let's fight, we should still have a chance!"
After Tang San listened to Gan Jue's words, he immediately said to him in the spiritual network with some excitement, but Su Jiu'er took a look at Gan Jue, then pursed his lips and didn't say anything more.
"What a fart! How big is the gap between us and Limit Douluo? Didn't you feel it in your great-grandfather before? Tell yourself, if you really meet your great-grandfather, will you have the slightest chance? Hurry up, don't worry about me, I dare to stay behind because I have the means to save my life! Xiaosan, when did I do something unsure?!"
"This"
Hearing Gan Jue's decisive words, Tang San immediately hesitated.
"Listen to my arrangement, otherwise you two will definitely not be able to escape."
After Gan Jue finally came to a conclusion, he focused the rest of his attention on the space dragon scale, and at the same time called out violently in his heart:
"Senior Black Dragon King, help me. Hurry up, or I will die."
"What are you shouting for? Do you think I can't bear to let you die? How can you be so troublesome, brat?"
"How can I cause trouble, this is the first time you have been asked to act for me, okay? It was all done by your soul beast before. You can't forget the agreement between us."
"Don't worry, I will save you."
The Golden-eyed Black Dragon King said helplessly.It's just that when Bibi Dong released his aura before, it had already sensed it, so it checked a little bit.Although Bibi Dong's strength was Limit Douluo, he hadn't reached the level of a half-step god like Tang Chen, so he would have no problem resisting the other party in the air.
Hearing the words of the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, Gan Jue was finally slightly relieved, looked at Bibi Dong, and waited for her reply.
As for Bibi Dong, she was also very surprised, why did Gan Jue say that his heart is not in the Wuhun Palace?
"Why do you say that?"
"Because I already know what happened back then, and the teacher also knows, he loves you very much, and now he is working so hard to help the Star Luo Empire against the Wuhun Empire, part of which is to avenge you."
"Hehe, I am now the Empress of the Spirit Empire, avenging me and coming to fight against us? And how do you know that I am not enjoying all of this right now?! I am now the most powerful woman on this continent, and it won't take long for me to become a god at level [-]. If you surrender to me now, I might let you go, otherwise this capital of slaughter would be a good place to bury your bones."
"Oh~, if we really surrender to you, what are you going to do with us? Can you let us continue to inherit our gods? Are you really relieved?"
"You will know this when the time comes. Now you just need to tell me, surrender...or die!"
"Calm down, Aunt Bibidong, you really don't need to be so strong, just like if you were willing to tell the teacher the truth, he would definitely accept you. After all, you are just a victim."
Gan Jue didn't answer Bibi Dong's words, but just brought up the past again.When Bibi Dong heard this, her heart was also darkened, how could she not know that what Gan Jue said was the truth?It's just that her dirty body is not worthy of Xiao Gang."
It's now!
At the moment when Bibi Dong was depressed, Gan Jue immediately reached out and grabbed Su Jiuer and Tang San beside him, then with a flicker of his figure, he appeared not far behind Bibi Dong in an instant, and the moment he appeared, his body turned suddenly, and directly threw Su Jiuer and Tang San out one after another with a powerful force, the speed was no less than a bullet ejected from the chamber.
And Su Jiuer did not disappoint Gan Jue's hard work. The moment she was thrown out, she released her black bird martial soul. Her beautiful blue wings spread out. After catching Gan Jue, it instantly turned into a streamer and flew towards the bright exit on the top of the cave.
Bibi Dong's reaction was also quick, and she turned around in an instant, with a slight hint of irritation on her face.
She didn't speak anymore, and with a move, she didn't even use her martial soul, and the huge soul power instantly condensed together and bombarded Qian Jue's body.With that huge strength and momentum, Gan Jue couldn't react at all, and was just blown away.
Is this the Limit Douluo?Gan Jue was horrified.If I really go all out, I am afraid that I may not lose in the battle with a 97-level Super Douluo like Su Jiuer, but in Bibi Dong's hands, there is no wave of waves.
Unleashing the wind and thunder wings to stabilize his body, Gan Jue looked at the hole not far behind him, but did not leave directly.
Bibi Dong frowned and looked at Qian Jue. When her attack fell on Qian Jue before, a spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared on Qian Jue's body, which deflected her attack for Qian Jue, so that Qian Jue did not suffer any damage.
Who is helping him?To be able to easily defuse one's own attack, the opponent's strength must have reached the level of Limit Douluo, and this person must have a very strong understanding of the power of space, who could it be?
When the war between the two empires was still fierce, Bibidong had confronted Grandmaster Liu Erlong and the others on the front line. She knew that although Liu Erlong had obtained the inheritance of the fire dragon god, the opponent's strength was still a long way from Limit Douluo, and he had to be fused with the master and Flander to become a golden holy dragon before he could pose a certain threat to her. Moreover, the golden holy dragon possessed the power of flame and light, not the power of space.But apart from Liu Erlong and the others, the Star Luo Empire should not have the combat strength of the Limit Douluo level. Could it be the one from Sea God Island?
Bibi Dong looked up at Gan Jue and fell into a brief thought.
Seeing the golden-eyed Black Dragon King on the back of the rooster in BB defending himself, his determination was also long, and he let out a sigh of relief. He didn't choose to leave immediately. Although Bibi Dong didn't have a flying martial spirit, he also had a flying red ancient. It's still possible to catch up with Tang Sanhe when he goes out now. It's better for Su Jiu'er to delay for a while.
Seeing Bibi Dong's silence, Gan Jue sighed, and continued to speak:
"Aunt Bibidong, I didn't lie to you with what I said before. To be honest, I still admire you very much. After all, your current strength and achievements are impossible for ordinary people to achieve."
"Admiration for me, then why didn't you surrender to me, and brought the last three sects to rebel out of the Heaven Dou Empire?"
There was a sneer in Bibi Dong's words.
"Don't use this kind of rhetoric anymore. Gan Jue shook his head, and looked at Bibi Dong with sincere eyes. It doesn't matter whether I submit to you or not, and it doesn't matter whether I fight against Spirit Hall. What you care about should be that I brought the teacher away from the Heaven Dou Empire.
Also, although you are now the empress of the Wuhun Empire, and although you have been the Pope of the Wuhun Palace for so many years, I know that you are definitely unwilling to become like this.After encountering such a thing, even if you destroy the Wuhun Temple, I don't think there will be any accidents.It is estimated that the only people you care about now are the teacher and your daughter, am I right? "
"."
Bibi Dong was really shocked now, and looked at Gan Jue with a look of surprise. He didn't expect that Gan Jue actually understood her current thoughts.
But so what? !
Does she need others' understanding for Bibi Dong?
No need!
For a moment, Bibi Dong no longer hesitated.Her expression froze, and the martial soul immediately possessed her body.The powerful aura suddenly radiated out, making Gan Jue feel like a flat boat in the sea, which may be capsized at any time.
!!!

To be continued.
