"Sword formation!"
Liu Ming's expression changed. He had seen the battle between Huangfu Yupo and Liu Chongyang in the Demonic Abyss Secret Realm. At that time, this woman controlled many flying swords, and their power was already extraordinary. The sword formation that she displayed now was more exquisite than the previous flying swords, and he had to pay attention to it.
The nine flying swords spun faster and faster, and in a flash, they transformed into a white sword wheel that was more than 100 feet in size. The white light in the center was as dazzling as the rising sun, and it was almost blinding.
Liu Ming's heart trembled, and with a wave of his sleeve, Pearls of Mountain and River flew out one after another from his sleeve, and quickly formed a yellow shield in front of him.
Then, a large amount of rich yellow light swept out from the surface of the shield, and under the intertwining, it condensed into a yellow light shield the size of a loft in front of the shield. It was crystal clear, as if it was real.
He had just finished doing this when the white sword wheel in the air suddenly shone brightly, and nine white light pillars as thick as water buckets suddenly shot out from the center, and fiercely bombarded the yellow light shield.
With a low muffled sound, the nine white light pillars suddenly turned into nine dazzling white giant swords, and pierced into the depths of the yellow light shield.
The yellow light shield was pressed back, and the light on its surface trembled, showing a state of being unable to withstand.
After a single breath, the yellow light shield finally collapsed with a loud bang, turning into specks of yellow light. The nine huge white swords continued to slash down without losing any momentum, directly striking the yellow light shield formed by the Beads of Mountains and Rivers.
At this moment, a layer of black water suddenly appeared on the yellow shield, and the whole shield became as smooth as a mirror.
Suddenly, the sound of collision, like rain falling on a banana leaf, was heard!
The giant white swords slashed on the shield, and a wave of water halos appeared on the surface. But in the next moment, all the giant swords were bounced back and exploded in mid-air, turning into specks of white crystal light.
However, the watery light on the shield also dissipated, revealing the yellow surface of the shield once again.
Liu Ming was delighted. This series of magical changes was extra after the 12 Pearls of Mountain and River had all been upgraded to Grotto-Heaven magic treasures. Today was the first time he used it in actual combat, and it did not disappoint him.
With a tap of his foot, he retreated more than a hundred feet, but the vigilance on his face didn't lessen in the slightest.
Although the two of them had only exchanged one move, and both of them had deliberately controlled their transcendence energy fluctuations, it still caused the gazebo where the two of them were to disappear without a trace. The surrounding scenery was also almost destroyed. Fortunately, the walls of the room were covered with some kind of abstruse prohibition, which allowed them to withstand the aftermath of the battle and not collapse.
Huangfu Yupo's eyes flickered with astonishment as he sized up Liu Ming. A smile appeared on his face as he flicked his finger.
The white sword wheel in the air let out a whistling sound and disintegrated with a loud bang. It turned back into nine white flying swords and flew back into her sleeve.
Liu Ming was startled. He didn't expect Huangfu Yupo to stop after one move. His eyes flickered, and he waved his hand to cast a magic art. The khaki shield flashed and turned into a yellow bead that flew into his hand.
"I've heard Ying 'er describe your methods. You once fought with that scoundrel Liu Zongyang in the Demon Abyss and didn't fall into a disadvantageous position. Seeing you today, you really live up to your reputation," Huangfu Yupo said indifferently.
Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "Elder Huangfu, you flatter me. If it wasn't for the unforeseen event in the Demon Abyss Tower that day, I'm afraid I would have already died in the hands of Liu Zongyang."
Huangfu Yupo's eyes flickered. She was unconscious at that time, and she roughly knew what had happened at the top of the Demon Abyss Tower from Zhao Qianying.
Green Spirit suddenly appeared and killed Liu Zongyang, and the giant hand that appeared from the Ancient Devil World and took Green Spirit away. Even the Celestial Mirror was taken away by this hand. It sounded like there were many twists and turns, and she couldn't help but find it hard to believe.
"Elder Huangfu, do you still want to continue teaching me? If not, I will take my leave first," Liu Ming said as he cupped his hands.
"Patriarch Liu, why are you in such a hurry to leave? I just wanted to test your strength. Take a seat first. I think you might have some misunderstanding about the matter between you and Ying 'er, "Huangfu Yupo suddenly said with a smile on his face.
As soon as these words came out, Liu Ming couldn't help but be startled.
As Huangfu Yupo spoke, he waved his hand and an invisible force caused the surrounding debris to fly to the side. In the blink of an eye, an empty space was cleared. At the same time, a set of tables and chairs appeared on the empty space.
Huangfu Yupo walked over slowly and sat down in a composed manner.
"Elder Huangfu, please speak your mind." Liu Ming's eyes flickered, but he didn't sit down and said so.
Huangfu Yupo faintly smiled. He flipped his hand and took out a tea set. He began to brew tea by himself, and the fragrance of tea immediately spread. At the same time, he said in a calm tone,
"Patriarch Liu, although the matter between you and Ying 'er is not voluntary, what's done cannot be undone. The Demon King will know eventually. Whether it's for Ying 'er or to protect the HuangFu Clan's reputation, he will definitely not let you go easily. At that time, I'm afraid the entire Qing Clan will be uprooted. "
When she said the last few words, she deliberately slowed down her speech and emphasized them.
Liu Ming's face darkened when he heard this. He knew that Huangfu Yupo's words were not a threat.
"Actually, Patriarch Liu doesn't have to be so hesitant. I know you have other female confidantes, but this won't hinder the marriage between you and Ying 'er. In our Thousand Demon Continent, it's normal for experts to have several partners. I think Ying 'er will accept it. "Huangfu Yupo patiently guided.
"What are you trying to say, Elder Huangfu?" Liu Ming was startled and asked.
"If Ying 'er can accept your female confidantes, will Patriarch Liu agree to this marriage?" Huangfu Yupo faintly smiled and asked.
When Liu Ming heard this, a complicated expression appeared on his face.
Agree? Or not agree?
Huangfu Yupo's words were already a great concession to the entire HuangFu Clan. If he continued to refuse, he would immediately anger Huangfu Yupo and make a move again.
It would be fine if he was alone. At worst, he could just leave early. However, if Qing Yu and the others were implicated, none of them would be able to walk out of this magnificent Imperial City.
In fact, he had quite a good impression of Zhao Qianying. However, she was the daughter of the Demon King after all. Many things would become troublesome if he were to get close to her.
"Patriarch Liu, the HuangFu Clan has already given in. If you continue to refuse, I can only ask the Demon King to deal with it." Huangfu Yupo saw that Liu Ming still had a hesitant expression and said unhappily.
"I am indebted to Elder Huangfu for thinking so highly of me. If it is really as Elder Huangfu said, then I can agree to this marriage." Liu Ming's thoughts turned as he sighed and said.
"So, Patriarch Liu has agreed?" Huangfu Yupo raised his brows.
"That's right." Liu Ming replied.
"Very well, I will make arrangements for Ying 'er. However, the HuangFu Clan is currently in troubled times. I will find another time to report your matter to the Demon King after the selection of the Crown Prince tomorrow. "Huangfu Yupo nodded.
Liu Ming nodded and could not help but laugh bitterly in his heart.
He did not know how the Demon King would react when he found out about this. Naturally, the later he found out, the better.
But then he thought of something and asked,
"Elder Huangfu, based on what you just said, could it be that the Crown Prince of the dynasty hasn't been decided?"
Huangfu Yupo hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, the original Crown Prince was Prince Liu. Unfortunately, he fell into the Liu Family's trap and died. We haven't had the time to choose another Crown Prince yet."
"Oh, isn't the crown prince chosen by the Demon King himself? From Elder's tone, there seems to be some special reason behind it? "Liu Ming's expression changed as he asked without batting an eyelid.
"Patriarch Liu, are you interested in this matter?" Huangfu Yupo glanced at Liu Ming and asked.
"I'm naturally interested in such a big event like the Demon Emperor's inheritance. His Majesty Demon Emperor invited us masters of the aristocratic families to attend the ceremony tomorrow. I want to know something in advance to satisfy my curiosity." Liu Ming smiled and said noncommittally.
"Patriarch Liu will naturally see these things tomorrow. Let's call it a day. After the selection of the Crown Prince tomorrow, I hope that Patriarch Liu will not leave the Imperial City. His Majesty the Demon King will probably summon you then. "Huangfu Yupo smiled faintly and stood up.
"I understand." Liu Ming nodded and agreed.
"Oh, by the way, just leave it here. Someone will clean it up. Farewell. "Huangfu Yupo smiled and left after leaving these words behind, and then he swiftly left this place.
Liu Ming didn't leave immediately. Instead, he stood in the messy room for a while. His expression changed for a while before he sighed and turned around to leave the room.
The next day, Liu Ming arrived at the Demon King's Palace early in the morning. Under the guidance of the palace's guards, he quickly arrived at his destination. It was a large palace made of large blocks of black stone. The words "Heart of Torment Palace" were written on the door.
Compared to the other buildings around it, this palace seemed a little solemn and strange. Moreover, it wasn't too far away from the square yesterday.
At this moment, Liu Ming was standing at the entrance of the palace, carefully looking up and down. For some reason, just when he was about to enter the palace, there was suddenly a strange feeling in his heart for no reason. When he wanted to capture it, the palpitation of his soul had disappeared without a trace.
After a long while, Liu Ming followed the crowd and walked into the palace.
Unexpectedly, this palace was a whole different world. It seemed to be much bigger than the square yesterday.
On both sides of the palace were two rows of tall stone pillars. On the top of the pillars, there were countless large moonlight stones the size of human heads. The whole palace was as bright as day.
The walls of the hall were dark in color and emitted rings of black light.
Liu Ming found it strange. He tried to release a strand of his Divine Sense into the wall.
The next moment, his face suddenly changed.
As soon as his Divine Sense touched the wall, it was immediately met with a strong devouring force. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and withdrew his Divine Sense in time to avoid damage to his Divine Sense.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed. This palace was full of strange things. He unconsciously became more cautious.
