Chapter 13680 Just Need a Reason
When Yu Zhengqi felt the ban lifted, he felt endless gratitude in his heart. He knelt on his knees with a plop and kowtowed repeatedly. His forehead hit the ground with a dull sound, and he kept saying, "Thank you, high priest. Thank you for saving my life. I will never forget it." His voice trembled slightly with excitement, and his eyes were full of gratitude.
"Is the Demon Lord's Black Sky Sword really not in your hands?" The high priest of the Zhenling Mansion Holy Temple lowered his head slightly, staring straight at Yu Zhengqi through the shadow of the hood. His voice was low and calm, but it seemed to carry a magical power that could see through people's hearts.
"If he is really not here, if the high priest does not believe me, you can search his soul directly. I will have no complaints." Yu Zhengqi answered respectfully. He raised his head, his eyes full of sincerity and determination, his body slightly leaning forward, looking like he was ready to be dealt with.
"Forget it, I believe you. If you say it's not there, then it's not there. Let's just assume it's in the Zhaixing Tower." The chief priest waved his hand gently, his tone calm, as if he didn't care much about the whereabouts of the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword. He raised his head slightly, looking into the distance, as if he could see through the mountains and see the Zhaixing Tower.
"But, the sword may not be in Zhaixing Tower." Yu Zhengqi was puzzled when he heard this, and couldn't help but speak. He frowned slightly, with a puzzled look on his face, and looked at the high priest cautiously, wondering why the high priest was so sure.
"I said it's there, and it's there!" The high priest's voice suddenly rose a few degrees, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.
He turned his head and stared at Yu Zhengqi again, and said slowly: "The Black Sky Sword of the Demon Lord must be found, but the Star Picking Tower must also be destroyed. Over the years, the Star Picking Tower has become more and more arrogant, relying on the fact that our Holy Hall is busy with affairs elsewhere and has no time to take care of this place, and has never taken our Holy Hall seriously.
Now, it is time to let them know how powerful our Holy Hall is. Moreover, the Star Picking Tower Master is a powerful demon cultivator with unfathomable strength, far beyond the reach of a little fellow like Ling Xiao."
As the high priest spoke, the aura on his body surged slightly, causing the air around him to vibrate, and a strong murderous intent faintly emanated from him.
"I understand." Yu Zhengqi suddenly realized that the high priest's purpose in coming here was not to find the Black Sky Sword, but to destroy the Star Picking Tower. He secretly marveled at the high priest's strategy, but also felt a little worried about the crisis that the Star Picking Tower was about to face.
The high priest hesitated for a moment, as if he was planning his next move. Then he said, "First Knight, take Yu Zhengqi to the Zhaixing Tower and ask them to hand over the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword. Tell them that this is the last chance the Holy Hall has given them. If they are stubborn and refuse to repent, the Zhaixing Tower will completely disappear from this world and turn into ruins."
As he spoke, he raised his hand slightly and pointed into the distance, his eyes filled with determination and resoluteness, as if he had already seen the scene of the destruction of the Zhaixing Tower.
"Yes, sir!" The first knight's voice was like a bell. These two short words seemed to carry a thousand pounds of force, resounding in this quiet ancestral land of the Yu family. He stood straight, like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath. The golden armor around him shone brightly under the sunlight, making it particularly eye-catching.
Each of the carefully carved patterns on the armor contains unique fluctuations of power, as if telling of past glorious military exploits.
On his helmet, there was a shining "one" engraved. The font was vigorous and powerful, as if it was cast by the power of heaven and earth, symbolizing his unique identity and supreme power in the temple, which was daunting.
"Let's go!" The first knight turned his head slightly, looking at Yu Zhengqi with a sharp gaze. There was an unquestionable majesty in his eyes, as if conveying an order that must be executed.
"Yes!" Yu Zhengqi did not dare to slack off and responded hurriedly. He bent his body slightly and followed behind the first knight, with a hint of caution on his face.
At this moment, he was both nervous about facing the people in Zhaixing Tower and absolutely obeyed the orders of the high priest. Recalling the things that happened in front of the high priest before, the high priest's unfathomable strength and majestic aura still frightened him, so he did not dare to be careless about the tasks assigned by the high priest.
The two of them harnessed their spiritual power and moved as fast as lightning. Soon, they arrived above the Zhaixing Tower. Zhaixing Tower, a well-known building in the martial arts world, towered into the clouds and was magnificent.
The building is made of a special kind of black stone, with mysterious runes shining on its surface, as if telling of its long history and extraordinary origins. The surrounding air seems to be oppressed by its momentum, forming an invisible pressure field.
At this time, many people had already hidden themselves around. Those figures were like ghosts, hiding in the dark, quietly watching everything. Among them were Qin Xianglan and others from the Qin family. Qin Xianglan was wearing a purple dress, with a graceful figure and a shrewd and calculating look in her eyes.
The Qin family masters beside her were all on guard, ready to deal with any unexpected events at any time.
In addition, there are some warriors from other forces. They are a mixed bag. Some are dressed in simple clothes, but can't hide the sharp aura emanating from them; some are dressed up gorgeously, but the greedy light flashing in their eyes exposes their purpose.
The purpose of these people coming here is, firstly, to get the legendary Demon Lord Black Sky Sword. This sword contains enormous power, enough to make any force crazy; secondly, to pick up a bargain.
After the destruction of each sect, many precious treasures are left behind. These people are like hyenas on the grassland, keenly smelling the opportunity and gathering together, trying to get a share of the impending storm.
It was Xiao Yihang who came out to greet the First Knight and Yu Zhengqi. Xiao Yihang was dressed in a white robe with fluttering sleeves and a calm and composed look on his face. He looked at the First Knight calmly, as if everything in front of him was under his control.
The first knight looked at Xiao Yihang with a hint of contempt in his eyes, and said lightly: "You are the deputy owner of Zhaixing Tower, right? I only ask one thing, are you willing to hand over the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword!" As he spoke, the armor on his body trembled slightly, making a crisp metal collision sound, as if cheering for his words.
Xiao Yihang shook his head, a wry smile appeared on his face, and said: "It is interesting that you are confusing right and wrong. You know that the Demon Lord's Black Sky Sword is not in the hands of our Zhaixing Tower, so why do you still want to do this?" As he spoke, he spread his hands slightly, pretending to be helpless, but his eyes revealed determination and indomitable spirit.
