After a long time, a huge bubble emerged from the magma.
Su Yu carried the small kylin and appeared with Wang Dahu.
Wang Da Hu's face was full of disbelief as he stuttered, "Holy Beast … why did it let us go and help us hide it from the Dark King?"
One had to know that the Holy Beasts only obeyed the Dark King.
It was completely inexplicable!
Su Yu turned a deaf ear to her and stared at the empty cross. His face was extremely unsightly.
Before he left, the King of Darkness took away the scabbard hidden here!
He had worked so hard and even nearly lost his life, but in the end, all his efforts were for naught.
Could it be that he really had no fate with the Emperor Killing Sword?
Back then, Yun Yazi had forced the Divine Warrior of Tianyun to capture a whiff of the Emperor Killing Sword's destiny and placed it on Su Yu. Theoretically speaking, Su Yu also had the opportunity to fight for the Emperor Killing Sword.
Now that the scabbard was taken away by King of Darkness, he had no way of getting the Emperor Killing Sword.
Even though it was right in front of him, Su Yu could do nothing about it.
Just as he was feeling exceptionally disappointed, the blurry mass of flesh on the cross wriggled a little and said weakly, "Hehe … Of course … I was the one who told the green snake to let you go …"
Wang Dahu looked over in surprise and murmured, "You? That's the Dark King's Holy Beast, how could it possibly listen to your orders? "
Su Yu came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and nodded slightly. "It is still possible … if he is the real King of Darkness."
Hearing this, Wang Dahu was stunned. "He's the real King of Darkness? Why do you say that? "
Su Yu stared at the lump of meat and said, "Didn't Alliance Master Jian explain it clearly just now? If the current King of Darkness was an imposter, then who was the imposter? No matter how I look at it, it can only be that foreign expert who barged into the Darkstar civilization a long time ago, right? "
"You're saying …" Wang Dahu's mind buzzed, and he sucked in a breath of cold air. "In the battle back then, the Dark King lost and was suppressed by an extraterrestrial civilization expert. That extraterrestrial civilization expert then pretended to be the Dark King?"
Su Yu nodded slowly.
"Hiss ~" Wang Dahu stared at the lump of meat in shock. He still couldn't believe it. "Is this real?"
The meatball laughed. "Hehe … I also hope it's fake …"
Wang Dahu felt like he was struck by lightning, he was stunned on the spot: "You, you really are the real King of Darkness?"
"Hehe, when I was suppressed, you had just ascended the Sacred Mountain. You were only a nine-year-old child then, right? Even your name was given by me. Because I saved you from the jaws of a tiger, I named you Wang Dahu. "
This was a secret that Wang Dahu had never told anyone.
He was originally a mortal child. When he was herding cows in the mountains, he was snatched away by a tiger.
It was King of Darkness who happened to pass by and saved him in passing. After discovering that he had cultivation foundations, he brought him back to the Sacred Mountain and named him Wang Dahu.
Only he and the King of Darkness knew about this.
"Dark … King …" Wang Da Hu's eyes were filled with tears as he quickly walked over. "Dark King, it was you who was trapped all these years!"
No wonder he always felt that the King of Darkness was a different person after he got injured.
From the looks of it, the so-called injury was just an excuse for the foreign expert to conceal his proficiency in the Dao of Ice.
It was no wonder that Green Snake would listen to him and let them go while they were hiding in the magma.
Because Green Snake knew long ago that the one imprisoned under the Sacred Pond was the real King of Darkness!
But that Green Snake was very smart. He always pretended not to know anything to avoid being killed by the fake King of Darkness.
"Don't go over." Su Yu reached out and grabbed Wang Dahu. "Even with the King of Darkness's strength, he could be trapped on the cross. Do you think that cross is an ordinary object?"
The meatball said, "That's right … Don't come over … This cross is something that that person brought from the outside world. Once you step within ten feet of it, your body will be immediately sucked into the cross. Even if you are a Four-Crown King!"
Wang Dahu said anxiously, "King of Darkness, how can I save you?"
"It's useless … You can't save me …" The King of Darkness said in a hoarse voice.
With the cross, no one could save him.
"What if I can save you?" Suddenly, Su Yu said slowly.
The meatball of the King of Darkness wriggled and said, "You?"
"That's right," Su Yu said calmly. "But I want the scabbard."
The meatball was silent for a long time, and said slowly, "I can guess … You risked your life to come here for the scabbard."
"I can promise that if you can save me, I can give you the scabbard."
Su Yu thought about it and nodded. "Okay, I hope you can keep your promise."
After saying that, Su Yu stepped forward, completely defenseless.
"Human, are you going to walk over here?"
Su Yu did not speak. He stepped within ten feet of the cross.
A powerful suction force instantly sucked Su Yu over.
But at this moment, a flow of the Law of Time appeared on the surface of Su Yu's body.
The King of Darkness gasped. "The Law of Time …"
Under the Absolute Time, the suction force from the cross stopped and could not affect Su Yu at all.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Yu took a step forward and pulled the meatball off the cross.
Then, he took it with him and retreated ten feet away from the cross.
It seemed like a long time, but in fact, it did not take more than a breath.
The Absolute Time could only last for a breath.
Without the influence of the cross, the meatball immediately released a weak force to repair itself.
In the blink of an eye, it turned from a blurry mass of flesh to a dark-faced young man in his thirties.
Seeing him, Wang Dahu knelt on the ground with a thud and was so excited that tears flowed down his face. "King of Darkness!"
The dark-faced young man had a cold temperament. At this moment, he showed a hint of tenderness and helped Wang Dahu up. "Get up."
Then, he looked at Su Yu with deep surprise and gratitude. "I didn't expect to meet someone who mastered the Law of Time in my lifetime. I thought it was just a legend."
"I can't repay you for saving my life, so I will give you the scabbard!" The King of Darkness said slowly.
Su Yu frowned slightly. "Now? The scabbard was taken by the fake King of Darkness. In your current weak state, I am afraid it will be very difficult for you to get the scabbard back from him. "
The King of Darkness was suppressed by the fake King of Darkness when he was at his peak, let alone now when he was extremely weak.
His current strength was probably even weaker than Su Yu's.
A hint of mockery appeared on the King of Darkness's weak face. "What that thief got was just a fake scabbard!"
What? Fake?
The fake King of Darkness was very shrewd. He didn't look like someone who could be easily fooled.
"The scabbard of the Emperor Killer Sword has always been a legend. Only I have it. If I say it is, it is. If I say it is not, it is not. No matter how smart that thief is, he won't know that the scabbard I carry with me is just a camouflage."
This …
Su Yu was surprised. "Then where is the real scabbard?"
The King of Darkness smiled coldly. "It is far away, but it is right in front of you!"
"It is with you?" Su Yu was secretly surprised. The fake King of Darkness had tortured him to such an extent, but he didn't find the scabbard on him?
It didn't make sense.
"To be exact, I am the scabbard!" However, the King of Darkness revealed a shocking secret that shocked Su Yu.
Wang Dahu, who was beside him, was also stunned. "King of Darkness, you said you are the scabbard?"
The little kylin, who was playing on the ground, also raised its eyes curiously and said in a childish voice, "The scabbard? It doesn't look like a scabbard to you."
In response, the King of Darkness laughed. "When have you ever heard that a scabbard is an inanimate object that was forged?"
This … really had not happened.
They only knew that a scabbard was a sword, but they didn't know what a scabbard was.
They just subconsciously thought it was a forged magical artifact.
"Back then, the Killing Path Master used his spine to forge the Emperor Killing Sword. This is a well-known rumor. However, few people know that the Killing Path Master used his own essence blood to forge a human-shaped scabbard. That scabbard is me!"
Hearing this, Su Yu felt that it was a fantasy.
However, when it came to the Path Master, he had to believe it.
It was not impossible for a drop of blood to evolve into a powerful creature like the Four Crowns Emperor.
"The Emperor Killing Sword contains the killing intent of the Killing Path Master. There is nothing in this world that can contain it. Only I, who was born from the flesh and blood of the Killing Path Master, can contain it!" The King of Darkness said slowly.
Su Yu's eyes lit up.
He had also wondered what kind of material the scabbard was made of to be able to isolate the all-pervasive killing intent of the Emperor Killing Sword.
So that was it.
"However …" Su Yu voiced his doubts. "Why did the Killing Path Master make the scabbard? Wasn't the reason he left the Emperor Killing Sword behind? Wasn't it because he was unwilling to die because of fear? Wasn't it because he wanted to leave behind his killing intent to continue wreaking havoc in the world? "
The King of Darkness did not explain. Instead, he stared at Su Yu and said leisurely, "You are very smart. I think you should understand that history is always written by the victors!"
Su Yu was startled.
The Killing Path Master was besieged to death. Was there a hidden reason?
"Then why did he die?" Su Yu could not help but be curious.
The King of Darkness said, "This is the answer that the thief wanted to know. The secret of the scabbard! Because the Killer Dao Master had inadvertently obtained a shocking clue, and that clue had brought about a fatal disaster! "
"His death turned that clue into an eternal secret. If you want to know, there is only one way!"
Su Yu's eyes flashed. "The sword and the scabbard become one again?"
The King of Darkness nodded approvingly. "That's right! That thief and the Sword Alliance Master wanted to know the secret at the moment when the sword and the scabbard became one. "
What would the clue mean if it could trigger a war between the Path Masters?
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it would shock the Great Beginning Realm.
Moreover, the Emperor Killing Sword was only one of the four pieces of the Emperor Set.
If it contained a secret, would the other three pieces also contain a secret?
Would the combination of the four secrets lead to an even greater secret?
Su Yu's heart trembled. It was as if he had inadvertently been involved in the whirlpool between the Path Masters!
After a moment, he calmed himself down.
The information that the King of Darkness brought to him was too shocking. He needed to digest it properly.
"You mean you are willing to follow me?" Su Yu's eyes flashed.
The King of Darkness pointed at himself and smiled bitterly. "I have no other choice but to follow you."
In his weak state and current situation, the only person he could trust was Su Yu.
"Then leave quickly." Su Yu took a deep look at the cross.
Perhaps the fake King of Darkness would notice that the King of Darkness had escaped.
It was better to leave as soon as possible.
