"Why didn't they stop us?"
Both of them were puzzled by this question!
Both of them said this almost at the same time. Then, both of them looked at each other questioningly.
Then, they smiled bitterly at the same time. "So you don't know either."
Both of them said this at the same time again.
Then, both of them burst into laughter at the same time.
Just a moment ago, both of them were still scheming against each other. But now, after experiencing a life-or-death chase and working together to successfully escape, both of them had a feeling in their hearts.
As if the enmity in their hearts had weakened a little.
Humans were all like this. After suddenly experiencing extreme danger, they would always subconsciously feel incomparably close to the people around them — even if they were their enemies.
But the kindness in this moment was the most precious thing in the world.
"Although I don't know, there's absolutely no reason for them to let us go." Chu Yang smiled and analyzed. "Their sudden abnormal behavior must have … encountered some irresistible force … Brother Ye, could it be that your Elder Master is here? Could it be that he made a move and stopped the four fifth-grade Supreme Martial Artists? "
Ye Zui pondered for a moment and said, "Impossible. If he can really subdue four fifth-grade Supreme Martial Artists who are accumulating power and waiting for the right moment … and are about to attack, I'm afraid that my Old Ancestor's cultivation isn't at such a level yet. "
Chu Yang let out an 'oh'. He became more and more puzzled. There were only a handful of people with such cultivation in the world. Who exactly was here?
He recalled what Zi Xieqing said before she left: "An expert who fought with me in the Heavenly Layer …"
Chu Yang's heart skipped a beat. Could there be a hidden expert here? But … why would this expert help us?
"Let's not think about these things. If someone really saved us, he must have a motive. Since he has a motive, we'll just have to wait. "Ye Zui chuckled, stretched out his legs and sat down comfortably.
Chu Yang was rather impressed. This guy, other than being completely unlike a human when he's vicious, he's quite open-minded in terms of his temperament.
"We got to know each other after a fight. But I still don't know what your name is. " A hint of a smile appeared on Ye Zui's cold face. He lowered his head and continued to treat his wounds, his movements extremely nimble.
"Me? If I tell you my name, you'll be shocked! "Chu Yang laughed mischievously.
"You scared me?" Ye Zui revealed a smile that he couldn't help but laugh. "Even if you say that you are the Dharma Supreme, I won't be surprised!"
"My name is Chu Yang! They all call me Extraterrestrial Demon! "Chu Yang chuckled." Isn't this name particularly scary? "
Ye Zui burst into laughter. "If you are an Extraterrestrial Demon, then I would be the supreme ruler of the Heaven Imperial Court. What kind of joke is this? "
Chu Yang chuckled and said, "It seems that there are still a lot of sensible people in this world."
Ye Zui snorted. He said, "Actually, the world is like this. Who asked you to offend the ruler? When the Dharma Supreme said that you were an Extraterrestrial Demon, only a few ignorant idiots would believe it. You can ask the big clans and law enforcers. Who would believe that? But it doesn't matter if you don't believe me. I'll still shout this slogan to catch you! "
"It's like a country where you offend the emperor. The Emperor casually said that you are a rebel thief, and the whole world is besieging you; what can you do? "
"We don't believe that you are an Extraterrestrial Demon, but if the Dharma Supreme says so, then you must be! You can't not be! Our big clans also don't want to offend the Dharma Supreme, so we can only follow suit to catch you! That's all. "
"Today, you and I have gone through thick and thin together, so I won't deal with you. But tomorrow, when I return to the clan and see you again, I will still use the Extraterrestrial Demon as an Extraterrestrial Demon. And then, when I see you again, I will still use the crime of being an Extraterrestrial Demon to catch you, and then obtain preferential treatment from the Dharma Supreme for the Ye Clan! Do you understand? "
Ye Zui said, full of sarcasm.
"What kind of preferential treatment can the Dharma Supreme give you?" Chu Yang asked, perplexed.
Ye Zui laughed sinisterly. "Brother, you are still too young. In this world, martial strength is not the only thing that makes one invincible. Power is the only thing that can truly make one invincible. "
"In the ten thousand years of development of the Ye Clan, side branches have been appearing continuously. Slowly, just those with the surname Ye alone have close to 1.1 million people. Among these 1.1 million people, only those who are suitable for cultivation. Not more than 100,000 people. And by 100,000 people, I mean … Martial Arts Grandmasters and Martial Artists are also considered cultivators. "
"In that case. Including their relatives, the population of the Ye Clan is probably as high as four to five million people. What do these people eat? What do they drink? What do they use? Although our Ye Clan has a big business, we can't just abandon these. Therefore, we can only keep adding all kinds of businesses to maintain the entire clan. "
"After adding businesses, we can't just produce and sell our own businesses. We have to go through some channels to exchange our businesses for things that we need. And these channels are in the hands of the law-enforcement officers. "
"The Ye Clan is very powerful, the number one ruling clan in the Heavens. But the law-enforcement officers are in charge of the entire Heavens. In the territory of the Ye Clan, we can settle everything. But if you displease the Dharma Supreme, he can detain your goods and people at will in any territory that doesn't belong to the Ye Clan. By the time you find someone and use your connections to rescue these things … Just the delay of time is enough to make this trip not only a waste of time, but also a complete loss. "
"But you can't just not do it. As the Ye Clan, how can we just abandon our own clansmen? We can't afford to lose face like this. If we lose … we can't even find the law-enforcement officers; we can only blame ourselves for being unlucky. We also want to make some extra money from the affiliated clans, blood payers and bandits … But where in the world are there so many bandits waiting for you to exterminate? Not to mention the affiliated clans. If you mess with the affiliated clans, you're messing with yourself … "
"But as long as the Dharma Supreme opens his mouth, all the people in our clan who are not suitable for cultivation will be able to eat their fill for at least a few years."
Ye Zui laughed bitterly. "It's the same for all the big clans. Gold and silver are worthless in the Heavens now, but no matter how worthless they are, they still need to be earned. Those things won't fall from the sky. "
"Every clan is extremely conflicted." Ye Zui laughed somewhat mockingly. "How bloated is the legacy of ten thousand years? It was a good thing that a Calamity Sword Master would appear every ten thousand years. If the inheritance continued, there might be internal strife and the people on the same side would kill each other … Dying in the hands of others was better than dying in one's own hands. At least we won't feel aggrieved. "
"This is the power of the law-enforcement officers! This power is enough to make the big clans go crazy! "
"Therefore, when the Dharma Supreme said to deal with you, none of the big clans objected. Erm, of course, except for the current Li Clan. The Li Clan knows their own limits. Even if they listen to the Dharma Supreme, the Dharma Supreme doesn't like them now, so they might as well stake it all on one throw. If they become the next Tribulation Clan, it will prove the failure of the Dharma Supreme and us. On the other hand, if they can't, it's just death either way. It doesn't matter how they die. "
Chu Yang's expression was dark. "You're … very thorough."
"What's the use of being thorough?" Ye Zui laughed mockingly. "Actually, the biggest drawback of this world is that there are too many people. So I'll seize the opportunity to kill, one less is one less! "
Chu Yang rubbed his nose, smiled bitterly and didn't say anything.
He was sure that this Young Master Ye couldn't take praise. If you didn't praise him, he might still be able to say a few words of insight. But if you praised him, then it would immediately draw out the devil in him.
"How are you useful to the Zhuge Clan?" Ye Zui thought of something else.
"Didn't I still get dragged down by you?" At the mention of this, Chu Yang felt like he was going to vomit. He said angrily, "If you didn't get me out and forced me to fight with you, what do you think I would have to do now?"
Ye Zui rolled his eyes. "Not necessarily."
But he didn't pursue this question anymore. Instead, he changed the topic. "However, if you are really Chu Yang, then your advancement is really fast."
Ye Zui's eyes were as cunning and vicious as a poisonous snake's. "You're too young."
Chu Yang smiled bitterly. "To be honest, I'm also a little confused about my cultivation … It's just that I was being hunted down that time and fell off a cliff. Coincidentally, there was a single-horned snake at the bottom of the cliff with its head raised. I smashed into its horn and killed it. Then, I fell unconscious, but something came out of the horn and automatically flowed into my mouth. After that, I was unconscious for a few months and woke up feeling different. Then … I advanced a level every few days … until now."
"You can say that I was lucky." Chu Yang smiled bitterly.
This lie was deliberately made up by the Sword Spirit in the Tribulation Space to trick Ye Zui into saying something. There must be a reason for the Heavenly Demon aura on Ye Zui! This was also what Chu Yang was most worried about.
As the saying went, to take in advance, one must give in advance.
If you want someone to be honest with you, then you have to be honest with them first.
But Ye Zui fell into deep thought. "But what did you smash to death? Could it be … Hiss … "He suddenly sucked in air as if he had a toothache.
"I don't know what that is either." As Chu Yang spoke, he described the 'thing he smashed to death' bit by bit according to the Sword Spirit's description.
"You're actually the one who smashed to death the last divine dragon of the heavens!" Ye Zui's eyes were like copper bells. He looked at Chu Yang, full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Huh?" Chu Yang was a little dizzy.
"Legend has it that the divine dragon's entire body degenerates at the last stage. It's only waiting to bathe in the essence of heaven and earth and then rush up to the heavens … And that period of time is when the divine dragon is at its weakest, so it usually hides very well … Who would have thought that when someone knocked you off the cliff, you would coincidentally smash into the divine dragon's single-horned dragon essence … And the most fortunate thing is that the dragon essence actually flowed into your mouth on its own … Such dumb luck is really … Tsk, tsk, tsk … This dragon essence is a supreme treasure in the world that can improve the meridians, spirit and soul of a human!"
Ye Zui smacked his lips, his face filled with unimaginable envy. Suddenly, he grabbed Chu Yang's arm and bit down hard.
