Chapter 437: Recognition of identity, heavy casualties
As Xu Yang spoke those two words, not only the Bull Demon King and the Ping Tian Taoist were affected, but also Ji Daoxuan and Qingzhi. Especially Qingzhi, after a while, when her divine sense returned to normal, her eyes were filled with awe and admiration when she looked at Xu Yang. She only felt that the ancient techniques practiced by her young master were incomparably profound, far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Before long, the Bull Demon King and the Ping Tian Taoist also recovered. They looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes, especially the Ping Tian Taoist, because he knew the ancient techniques he mastered very well, knowing that the ancient techniques used by this Chen Xu were of the same origin as his, and it could even be said that the ancient techniques used by the other party just now were the ancient techniques he mastered.
It should be known that he had once discussed Tao with Xu Yang, and in the process of discussing Tao, he taught Xu Yang all the ancient techniques he had mastered, and Xu Yang quickly mastered them, and even surpassed him, so this Chen Xu...
"Run away, old Taoist! (牛鼻子老道: old Taoist)"
The Bull Demon King's mind couldn't make this turn. He only felt that this Chen Xu was too powerful, so powerful that they didn't even have the qualifications to fight desperately. If he really fell into the hands of the other party, he would probably be unable to survive and unable to die, so the best way was to run away quickly. So, he pulled the Ping Tian Taoist's tattered Taoist robe and wanted to escape together.
As a result, he found that he couldn't pull it. This made the Bull Demon King look at the Ping Tian Taoist in surprise, his huge bull eyes filled with doubt, not understanding what this old Taoist was doing, could it be that he was frightened?
The Ping Tian Taoist ignored the Bull Demon King's strange eyes, but stood in place, raised his head, and looked at Xu Yang uneasily, cautiously saying: "This lord, where did you learn the ancient techniques you just used from?"
The Bull Demon King heard this, his chest heaving up and down non-stop. No, you old Taoist, why are you trying to build a relationship with your enemy? This is too shameless, so shameless that the Bull Demon King, who prides himself on having a face thicker than the city wall, is somewhat beyond his reach!
Xu Yang took in the Bull Demon King's somewhat comical facial expressions, couldn't help but smile, and said: "I learned it from a Taoist. My sister thinks that you two have extraordinary talent. Follow me from now on!"
The Bull Demon King was about to open his mouth to curse, when a familiar voice transmission suddenly came from his ear, causing his whole body to shake violently. He raised his eyes to look at Xu Yang, his expression becoming very exciting.
'Since Fellow Daoist Xu Yang is disguised as someone else, it means that there must be a reason for him to do so. Don't let this stupid bull mess things up!'
After hearing the word Taoist, the Ping Tian Taoist confirmed the true identity of the person in front of him. Although he didn't know Xu Yang's true intentions, he still didn't want the Bull Demon King to ruin his plan. So, the Ping Tian Taoist pulled the Bull Demon King over, and regardless of whether the Bull Demon King agreed or not, he forcibly pressed the Bull Demon King's head and bowed to Xu Yang:
"Young master, we are willing to follow you!"
Although the Bull Demon King's brain sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, he won't drop the ball at critical moments. He quickly reacted and said to Xu Yang ingratiatingly:
"From now on, young master, I, Old Bull, will be your most loyal servant. If you ask me to go east, I will never go west!"
The Ping Tian Taoist breathed a sigh of relief. This dead bull finally got the hang of it, saving him from worrying.
Xu Yang nodded in satisfaction. Qingzhi beside him didn't understand this, because in her opinion, the cultivation levels of both the Bull Demon King and the Ping Tian Taoist were a bit too low. If they were in the upper realm, even if they were given away as followers, others might not want them. They could only be treated as mine slaves and sent to mine, but since the young master had said so, she, as a maid, would definitely not express any objection, but it was certain that she disliked the Bull Demon King and the Ping Tian Taoist.
The Bull Demon King didn't care about Qingzhi at all. He directly squeezed her away with his butt, ignored her murderous gaze, and ingratiatingly approached Xu Yang, looking like he was willing to be a pawn.
The Ping Tian Taoist was speechless. He often suspected that the Bull Demon King's true form wasn't a bull? It should be a dog, he's too good at licking.
Qingzhi bit her lip and glared fiercely at the Bull Demon King. Seeing that the Bull Demon King didn't see it, she had no choice. Without the young master's permission, she didn't dare to attack the Bull Demon King, so she could only hold her breath and sulk aside.
"Old Bull, let me ask you, how did you run out from inside, and in such a hurry? Did something happen inside?"
Xu Yang tried his best to hold back his laughter. He felt that his Bull Second Brother was too comical and asked.
The Bull Demon King's expression became serious, and said:
"Reporting to the young master, it's like this..."
The Bull Demon King told Xu Yang everything he had done in detail, and of course, he also beautified his behavior, saying that he didn't deliberately坑 (坑: to trick) them, it was completely out of desperation. At this moment, in that ancient bronze hall, there should be rivers of blood and corpses everywhere, and at least half of those beings from the upper realm had died.
The Ping Tian Taoist added a few details, showing that the intrusion of those beings from the upper realm alarmed the powerful beings who had been sleeping in the ancient hall for who knows how long, which is why they encountered the killing tribulation.
When he heard that there were endless treasures in the ancient bronze hall, Xu Yang was somewhat tempted, after all, wealth moves people's hearts, this is human nature, and it is undeniable, but later, when he heard the Ping Tian Taoist say that there were sleeping beings awakening from within and slaughtering the beings from the upper realm, he hesitated a little.
"What is the strength of those ancient beings?"
Xu Yang asked the most critical question. He still wanted to go there for a walk, not only for the rare treasures stored in the ancient hall, but also to find out whether the ancient bronze hall had any connection with the legendary Heavenly Court, or whether he could excavate some past secrets from the ancient hall and uncover the mysterious veil of this Emperor Xu Tian.
"In terms of strength, the individuals seem to be about the same as that King Qingyuan, but there are too many of them. This poor Taoist only glanced from afar and found that there were at least a dozen ancient beings besieging those people!"
The Ping Tian Taoist recalled.
'About the same strength as King Qingyuan, then there's nothing to be afraid of!'
Xu Yang still had a good idea of King Qingyuan's strength. Putting aside that bamboo stick, his strength was even inferior to Ye Canglan. Ye Canglan was defeated by him in a few rounds, so after comparison, he was sure that if these ancient beings were only like this, they would basically not pose a threat to him.
"Let's go, let's go take a look."
Xu Yang said to a few people.
Qingzhi, who had been silent all along, breathed a sigh of relief, because Huang Wujiu was still in that ancient bronze hall, and she was afraid that she would encounter some danger. If the young master didn't plan to go to that ancient bronze hall, Huang Wujiu would most likely be killed, after all, as a master and servant, Qingzhi still didn't want Huang Wujiu to lose her life because of adventure.
"Are we really going?" The Bull Demon King hesitated a little.
He really felt that that place contained great terror, and it was very likely to be a peerless凶 (凶: fierce) being. If he went rashly, it would undoubtedly put himself in danger.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Listen to the young master."
The Ping Tian Taoist gave the Bull Demon King an elbow to the waist.
The Bull Demon King was in pain and glared at the Ping Tian Taoist, almost unable to resist cursing. He thought unhappily in his heart:
This old Taoist is really good at licking!
"Don't worry, if there is really any danger, I will take you away at the first time."
Xu Yang comforted the Bull Demon King, and then led a few people to fly quickly towards the ancient bronze hall.
......
......
At the same time.
"Damn it..."
King Qingyuan, with disheveled hair and blood stains all over his face, finally couldn't help but swear. It should be known that he had always paid attention to his image before, and even if he was angry, he wouldn't curse, but this time he was really angry to the extreme.
He was tricked, and he was tricked very badly. Not only did he not get a treasure, but he even used up most of the treasures on his body. During this period, in order to fight against those awakened beings from the upper realm, he waved the bamboo stick with all his strength, and only then did he cooperate with others to kill a few, and then, he was targeted by those ancient beings, which led to him being besieged. If his strength hadn't been strong enough, and his ancestors had given him enough life-saving items, he might have died here.
King Qingyuan finally broke through the encirclement and escaped from the ancient bronze hall, so angry that he wanted to kill someone, but looking around, he found that the two followers he had left behind, along with that dead bull, were gone, which made him feel even more betrayed.
So, he grabbed a follower of another being, his eyes fierce, and逼问 (逼问: to force a confession) him:
"Where's that bull?"
That follower wanted to be stubborn, but when he smelled the strong bloody smell on King Qingyuan's body, he was almost scared to pee, and didn't dare to hide anything, telling King Qingyuan what he knew.
After King Qingyuan got the information he wanted, he casually捏死 (捏死: pinch to death) this person. He was angry now and didn't care about anything. Besides, the master of this follower might have already been buried in the ancient hall, so he was even more肆无忌惮 (肆无忌惮: unbridled), venting the躁郁 (躁郁: manic) emotions in his heart by killing people. Then, he walked to the other followers who stayed outside and got the same message from them, killing them all.
After his mood calmed down a little, he wiped the blood stains on his face, frowned and looked to the left, his tone a little森冷 (森冷: sinister), muttering to himself:
"Those two idiots must have been诓骗 (诓骗: to deceive) by that dead bull, and now they should have become dead people!"
He felt that the dead bull could even trick him, let alone two mere followers!
"Forget it, the monk can run away but the temple can't. Let that dead bull live a little longer. I'll settle this matter after I go out!"
King Qingyuan took a deep breath, retracted his gaze from the left, and refocused on the ancient bronze hall, observing the situation inside through the crack in the door, a trace of greed flashing in his eyes.
This is also human nature, after all, he lost so much, he has to compensate him for some, otherwise wouldn't he have come in vain!
Although there were corpses everywhere inside, and people were constantly falling, the rare treasures inside were very eye-catching!
Suddenly, he glanced and saw a group of people闯 (闯: to rush) out of the ancient hall unscathed. The leader of this group was Huang Wujiu. It was also good luck, because Huang Wujiu was intentionally or unintentionally united with others by King Qingyuan and squeezed into a marginal figure. The group could only follow behind the large team, which led to the fact that when the people in front were attacked, Huang Wujiu could react at the first time and escape from it at the fastest speed. Even if she was阻击 (阻击: to intercept), it was only one or two ancient beings, and they were defeated by Huang Wujiu and others, so that they retreated safely. Only a few people suffered a little injury and rubbed a little skin, which was nothing at all.
Seeing this scene, King Qingyuan stared at Huang Wujiu, a trace of strong malice flashed in his eyes, and then he tidied up his clothes, walked to Huang Wujiu, and opened his mouth in a seemingly gentle manner:
"Princess Huang, would you be willing to cooperate with me in a game?"
Although there was a gap between King Qingyuan and Huang Wujiu, and they hated and opposed each other, because the followers brought by King Qingyuan were too far ahead when exploring the ancient bronze hall before, which led to them being秒杀 (秒杀: instant kill) by those ancient beings at the first time, and they were wiped out all at once, and King Qingyuan therefore became a lonely man. There is a time when manpower is exhausted. It is definitely impossible for him to explore the ancient bronze hall alone. He can only seek Huang Wujiu's help.
If he could let Huang Wujiu's people go to test the waters for him, he was very confident that he could make up for all the things he had lost all at once, and even get more.
"No cooperation."
Huang Wujiu was not拖泥带水 (拖泥带水: muddled), and directly rejected King Qingyuan's proposal.
She knew King Qingyuan's personality too well. He was a poisonous snake spitting out letters, very阴毒 (阴毒: insidious), and could反咬 (反咬: to bite back) his own people at any time. Cooperating with him was not as good as cooperating with the ancient beings in the ancient bronze hall, at least they would not坑 (坑: to trick) their own people.
Moreover, cooperation or not is not up to her to decide. She is now a servant, and those who are around her seem to be listening to her, but it is just the task that the young master has explained.
Hearing this, King Qingyuan's face became阴晴不定 (阴晴不定: changeable). In his opinion, he had at least taken in the other party despite the previous suspicions. No matter what, the other party had to give him some face. He didn't expect the other party to reject him so directly. Sure enough, 白眼狼 (白眼狼: ingrate) can't be fed!
"Princess Huang, I sincerely want to cooperate with you, won't you consider it carefully?"
King Qingyuan stared at Huang Wujiu阴恻恻 (阴恻恻: sinister), his tone with a hint of threat.
"Sorry, Young Master Qing, really no cooperation."
Huang Wujiu ignored King Qingyuan's threat and rejected it again.
Now King Qingyuan's condition is not good, he is injured everywhere, and the internal injuries he has suffered in his body are probably quite serious. On the other hand, Huang Wujiu's side, the精气神 (精气神: spirit) has not been affected in any way, and the strength has been maintained very well. In addition, King Qingyuan has been reduced to a 光杆司令 (光杆司令: lone commander), so even if he uses that bamboo stick with mysterious materials, Huang Wujiu is not very afraid of him.
"Okay, very good, Princess Huang, I will remember this!"
King Qingyuan narrowed his eyes into a slit, glanced at everyone怨毒 (怨毒: resentful), forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart. He knew that turning his face at this time would not give him any substantial benefits, and then walked to the side, took out a spirit object of extremely high grade from his arms,沉下心来 (沉下心来: to calm down), and began to heal his injuries.
He made up his mind in his heart that when his injuries recovered, he would attack this Huang Wujiu at the first time. The reason why he didn't do it before was nothing more than忌惮 (忌惮: to dread) the noble person standing behind the Ghost Phoenix clan, but now, he couldn't care about these anymore. He just wanted this Huang Wujiu to die, and there was a ready-made excuse here. If the noble person asked about this matter afterwards, he could推到 (推到: to attribute) Huang Wujiu's death to these ancient beings.
This idea coincided with Xu Yang's!
All the living beings of the Upper Realm were killed by King Qing Yuan, and King Qing Yuan was killed by these ancient beings. The vast majority of the surviving Upper Realm beings can attest to this!
