The people of Meng Village did not believe that the Evil Old Man had returned.
After all, this legend had been around for too long. Most of the people in the legends had already passed away. It was indeed hard to believe that they would suddenly reappear one day.
However, Luo Zheng believed it because Luo Zheng had personally released the Evil Old Man.
Previously, after Luo Zheng had released the Evil Old Man, the Evil Old Man and the big-mouthed monster had charged into the Takixuan Forest. Then, the Immortal Abode had been attacked by a group of ferocious creatures from the divine realm.
Luo Zheng did not know if the two of them had died in the hands of those creatures. At that time, Luo Zheng was also worried that the Evil Old Man and the big-mouthed monster would not be able to survive against those creatures in the Takixuan Forest, no matter how powerful the Evil Old Man and the big-mouthed monster were.
Now, it seemed that Luo Zheng's worries were unnecessary. The Evil Old Man had been imprisoned for so long. As soon as he was released, he immediately tried to restore his former glory and status. Coincidentally, the Evil Old Man's lair was in the Vast Sky Territory!
"If you don't believe me, the next person to come here will not be me, but the Evil Old Man himself," the Sun Moon Stockade Chief said.
A peak mid-level True God was not to be underestimated in the divine realm!
With such a backer, the Sun Moon Stockade's status in the future would be greatly improved. The Sun Moon Stockade Chief was naturally very pleased. He believed that Luo Zheng would definitely compromise. No one was willing to court death in front of a True God!
"I believe you," Luo Zheng said calmly.
Hearing Luo Zheng's words, the Sun Moon Stockade Chief and his subordinates instantly heaved a sigh of relief. They obviously did not want to provoke Luo Zheng, a martial artist who had proven himself to be a True God. If they could make Luo Zheng retreat, that would be the best outcome!
"If that's the case, you can persuade the villagers of Meng Mountains to leave obediently. Or you can leave yourself. Leave these villagers to us," the Sun Moon Stockade Chief said with a smile.
The villagers of Meng Mountains did not expect Luo Zheng to actually believe the Sun Moon Stockade Chief's words. They were stunned. "Luo Tianxing, you can't believe what they say! They're just trying to scare us … "
"The Sun Moon Stockade is just a dilapidated stockade. It's been half dead for tens of thousands of years. How can they invite a True God?"
"…"
Luo Zheng did not refute the words of the villagers behind him. He continued to speak to the Sun Moon Stockade Chief, "I believe that the Evil Old Man has indeed returned, but I will not leave. If you really want me to leave, you can ask the Evil Old Man to come here himself!"
The warriors of the Sun Moon Village had relaxed looks on their faces. They thought that since Luo Zheng had compromised, this matter would naturally be resolved. However, when they heard Luo Zheng's words, their faces instantly stiffened.
Luo Zheng had his own plans.
Luo Zheng had just entered the God's Domain, so it would be difficult for him to fully integrate into the God's Domain. If he could obtain the help of the Evil Old Man, he would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort!
"That's right! Get Old Man Evil to come personally!"
"Let's see where your Sun Moon Village can find a True God! If there really is a True God, why would the Sun Moon Stockade need to chase us away? "
"I also want to see the legendary True God!"
However, the villagers of Meng Mountains misunderstood Luo Zheng's meaning. They thought that Luo Zheng did not believe the words of the Sun Moon Stockade Chief and was just taking advantage of the situation to speak.
The Sun Moon Stockade Chief's face turned ashen, and his voice became cold again. "Do you know the consequences of the Evil Old Man coming here personally?"
"Of course I do." Luo Zheng nodded slightly.
"Very well!" The Sun Moon Stockade Chief sneered and left with his subordinates. Today, he could not persuade Luo Zheng to leave and drive away the villagers of Meng Mountains. He could only leave first and let the Evil Old Man come personally.
Although he would be accused of incompetence, he also knew that with the Evil Old Man's methods, the villagers of Meng Mountain Village and this Luo Zheng before him would all die!
After the Sun Moon Stockade Chief left, the villagers who were hiding rushed out. Most of them had a victorious expression on their faces. They were glad that they had chased away the warriors of the Sun Moon Stockade without shedding a drop of blood.
"The Sun Moon Stockade has been around for god knows how many years. There are only a few people in the stockade. Their strength is average, but their bragging skills are amazing. They insisted that they had a True God!"
"What a joke! According to the legends, the Evil Old Man was a big shot who ruled the north of Vast Sky Domain. Why would such a person appear in a small stockade? "
"That makes sense!"
In the eyes of the villagers of Meng Mountains, the Sun Moon Stockade was not much stronger than Meng Mountain Village. It was just a stockade made up of a bunch of mobs. Before this, they were still afraid of the Sun Moon Stockade Chief. Now that Meng Mountain Village had 'Luo Tianxing', why would they care about the Sun Moon Stockade?
However, Luo Zheng's words poured a bucket of cold water on the villagers' enthusiasm.
"The Evil Old Man should be back," Luo Zheng said calmly.
"He's really back? Are you kidding? "A villager chuckled. He did not believe Luo Zheng's words either.
"I'm not kidding." Luo Zheng shook his head. "The Evil Old Man has indeed returned to Vast Sky Domain. The Sun Moon Stockade Chief is not lying. I've seen the Evil Old Man himself not long ago."
When Luo Zheng said this, the noisy atmosphere at the entrance of Meng Mountain Village instantly froze. Everyone was immersed in silence …
"You, you, you're telling the truth?" Another villager asked with a serious expression.
The people of Meng Mountain Village dared to go against the Sun Moon Stockade, but they would never dare to offend a True God …
"It's true," Luo Zheng said. "But …" He wanted to comfort them. Although the Evil Old Man was powerful, he could not disobey Luo Zheng's orders. Unfortunately, these people were probably frightened. Now, they were extremely agitated.
"Then, then what should we do?"
"Let's go. I heard that the Evil Old Man committed all kinds of crimes. That's why he was named 'Evil Old Man'. Back in the day, he was so evil that an almighty figure subdued him. He has disappeared for so many years. Is he really going to be restored?"
"This is Meng Mountain Village. It was left behind by our ancestors …"
"Ancestors my ass. The Evil Old Man has lived longer than all of our ancestors combined. If the legend is true, we are indeed occupying the Evil Old Man's territory!"
"…"
Since these villagers were so agitated, Luo Zheng did not bother to explain …
Sun Moon Stockade, Turbid Moon Cave.
Turbid Moon Cave was originally an abandoned cave. The cave entrance had collapsed many years ago and was abandoned long ago.
However, during this period of time, the Sun Moon Stockade dug up the cave entrance again and cleaned it thoroughly. Then, it was listed as a forbidden area by the Sun Moon Stockade. No one was allowed to come close!
The Sun Moon Stockade Chief was now kneeling respectfully in front of Turbid Moon Cave. He said softly, "Evil Old Man, it's not that I didn't do my job well. Meng Mountain Village has invited a strong helper from somewhere. Although he is only a Proof God, his strength is indeed extraordinary. I'm very sensitive to soul divine abilities. That Proof God's soul is probably far stronger than a Golden Battle Soul. I'm afraid it's not inferior to a True God's soul!"
After he finished speaking, the Sun Moon Stockade Chief remained kneeling on the ground.
"Bullsh * t! He's just a Realm Lord. It's already very impressive for his soul to become a Golden Battle Soul. Possessing a True God's soul? Even those wealthy families on the floating islands can't do that! " The Evil Old Man's voice came from Turbid Moon Cave. There were not many Realm Lords who possessed a Golden Battle Soul. The Evil Old Man found it hard to believe.
