Chapter 287: The Strange Island
"Young Master is right, but that doesn't mean that this guy is invulnerable. I heard that Master Su is particularly partial to his junior sister. If we do something about it, we might be able to make him surrender voluntarily!"
Shadow thought about it for a long time, and another idea came to his mind, and he reported it to Hua Wuque.
When Hua Wuque heard this, the sneer on his face became even thicker.
"Yes, you can indeed attack his junior sister, but his junior junior sister's current cultivation level has reached the yellow level. Among these secret guards, you have the highest cultivation level. Do you think you can be safe and sound without any problems?" If there’s any movement, take her out of there, right?”
When Shadow was asked this question, he looked confused and his expression became more and more depressed.
"But Young Master, this won't work and that won't work either. What should we do? I don't know how long my ancestor will be in seclusion this time. If we don't do something to shine on our Shadow Island, I'm afraid our ancestor will really... Deposed from your position as young master!"
Hua Wuque shook his head, looked at the shadow, and then looked at the entire Wuji Hall.
"It's just a name. Anyone can take it. I've been trapped for so long and finally got the chance. If he wants to, just spare me!"
Shadow had never seen his young master look so low-spirited, and his body under the bamboo hat was gradually trembling. He wanted to step forward several times, but he hurriedly held back.
After he paused for a long while, he looked decisive as if he had made up his mind.
"Don't worry, young master, I will not let them remove you easily. Shadow has been with the young master since he was a child and is willing to do anything for the young master!"
Shadow's words contained a sense of heroism and sacrifice. Hua Wuque was confused when he heard it. She had no idea what he wanted to do. She just thought he had some crooked idea and immediately waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter, I'm tired of being this young master anyway, so this is good!"
Shadow hesitated on the spot for a long time, looked up at Hua Wuque, then looked around, finally made up his mind, took a step forward, and whispered a few words in Hua Wuque's ear.
Hua Wuque's dull expression suddenly changed. He was locked on something in surprise, his pupils tightly shrinking. When Shadow finished speaking and left, he was greeted with a very solemn inquiry.
"Is this true?"
"Shadow doesn't dare to lie. This happened before. If I hadn't seen that the young master really has no fighting spirit, I wouldn't be willing to tell this matter!"
Shadow stood aside timidly and answered Hua Wuque in detail.
Hua Wuque's silent face suddenly brightened, and his eyes looked at something scorchingly, suddenly hardening.
"I know this. You can't tell anyone. I'm going to find out what's going on!"
He said softly, earning a silent nod from Shadow.
It was late at night, Hua Wuque hid in the night and went straight to the place where his ancestor practiced.
He is familiar with the defense of Shadow Island better than anyone else, and he can walk with ease!
It was rain or shine along the way, and no one else noticed at all.
In about half a cup of tea, Hua Wuque arrived at the place where his ancestor practiced, which was the most remote island on Shadow Island.
The surrounding area of the island is gloomy under the night. This place is regarded as the ancestor's training place. It was carved out separately and was made 20 years ago when Hua Wuque was born.
For so many years, no one of the disciples on Shadow Island dared to wander in. They only knew that their ancestors would go to this island to practice from time to time.
There have been incidents of people trespassing on the Shadow Island before, but Hua Wuque didn't know what happened because the ancestor had already suppressed the matter.
Hua Wuque held his breath and concentrated, moving forward step by step according to the place indicated on the selected map.
Walking along the edge of the island, after passing a turn, you saw a faint green light flickering somewhere.
The light flickered and appeared, quite strange in the silent night.
Hua Wuque stared at the light with an extremely solemn expression. He hesitated in his steps and did not dare to take another step forward!
After struggling in place for a long time, he moved suddenly and accidentally stepped on a nearby branch.
"Bang bang..."
The crisp sound of branches breaking echoed in the quiet night, which seemed particularly abrupt.
The frightened bird in the jungle, hearing this sound, flapped its wings from the branches and flew not far away, and soon turned into a dark shadow on the horizon.
Hua Wuque's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly moved away, finding a place that was good at hiding and hiding in it.
But within a moment, the shining cave not far away suddenly turned off the light, and then a figure rushed out from there and headed straight for the direction of the sound.
When Hua Wuque saw the oblique shadow, his whole body couldn't stop trembling.
The ancestor who seemed to be safe and sound before was now reduced to skin and bones, with shriveled fingers and a stooped waist, as if a pair of human skin were placed on the skeleton. He could even hear faintly. The crunching sound of bones rubbing against each other.
Hua Wuque couldn't move his body, his eyes were wide open, and he was watching his ancestor from a dark angle.
The ancestor hunched over and bent down. His cloudy eyes stared at the trampled branch above the ground, and he stretched out his fingers like dry wood to pick it up.
For a moment, he raised his body, turned around and looked around. He found that there was nothing strange, and then he let go of his vigilance.
In Hua Wuque's sight, the old ancestor's body gradually straightened, and a stream of mist emerged from his body, followed by the dry skin on the bones, which gradually became full!
In just a few seconds, the old ancestor appeared in front of him in his original state.
Hua Wuque widened his eyes and stared at everything in front of him, his eyes full of disbelief.
As if there was a fake person in front of him, he clenched his fingers, his nails dug into his palms, trying to control his emotions and try not to expose himself.
But things went against his wishes, and Hua Wuque's breathing became heavier as fear spread.
The old ancestor seemed to have noticed the breath here, and at this moment, a figure slid past him from behind.
His attention was completely attracted by the figure, the old ancestor turned his head, jumped up, and chased after the figure directly.
Hua Wuque collapsed on the ground, took a long breath, and looked at the figure that disappeared from his sight, his face full of sadness.
It turned out that the shadow had been following him. If he had been a second later, he would have been discovered!
Who knows what would happen then!
Hua Wuque was a little scared when he thought of this, and cold sweat kept pouring down his back!
He hurriedly moved himself, preparing to rush towards the outside of the island.
