Drops of blood flowed down Zhou Yang's sword and fell to the ground. Sword Prison Citadel was stunned for a moment before he suddenly grabbed his sword. His eyes were filled with horror.
"Now, do you understand?"
Zhou Yang smiled coldly and pulled out his sword. Sword Prison Citadel immediately knelt on the ground and blood kept flowing out of his mouth.
This blow did not kill him, but it was precisely because Zhou Yang did not kill him that he felt even more humiliated.
"Why didn't you kill me?" Sword Prison Citadel asked in a low voice.
Zhou Yang did not speak but showed a trace of a disdainful smile.
If he did not kill Sword Prison Citadel, he would only be attacked by the righteous sects. The three evil sects would inevitably take advantage of the situation to kill him. He did not want to fight with these people now, and he did not want to waste too much Zhen Yuan before finding the real treasure.
Undoubtedly, deterrence was the best choice.
"Why, do you want to give it a try? Next time, I can't guarantee that I will spare your lives. "
Looking at Jiang Wancheng and the others, Jiang Wancheng and the other two smiled and a trace of fear flashed in their eyes.
"Everyone, look, what is this?"
Just as Zhou Yang was about to leave and return to the hall, Wen Xiyu suddenly shouted. Everyone looked back and saw a stone statue in a dark corner.
"This is a statue … It seems that it has been weathered for many years …" The Fifth Young Lady frowned.
"It's just a broken statue. What's there to see? Zhou Yang, I think we should go to the hall to open the entrance first." Jiang Wancheng laughed.
"This is not a statue."
After a while, Zhou Yang said in a low voice.
"Not a statue?" Wen Xiyu asked doubtfully.
"Yes, the Gu King died less than a hundred years ago. If it was a statue, how could it be weathered? Unless …"
"Unless what?" The Fifth Young Lady asked.
Zhou Yang did not answer, but took a step back. His eyes were filled with caution.
"What is it? Let's see what it is." Zhao Yinqing immediately pulled out her sword.
"Wait!" Zhou Yang bellowed, his eyes flashing.
"Hmph, who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to order me?"
Zhao Yinqing glanced at Zhou Yang disdainfully and immediately stabbed the stone statue.
"Crack!"
The stone statue was not as hard as everyone thought. Zhao Yinqing's sword easily penetrated the statue and even cracked it …
Kacha!
The crack grew larger and larger, and in the next moment, with a loud boom, the stone statue completely shattered …
Whoosh!
All of a sudden, a large number of black beetles burst out of the stone statue like a swarm of ants.
"Isn't this something?"
Zhao Yinqing hurriedly retreated and pulled a few disciples of the Dragon General Residence in front of her.
"This isn't a statue, it's a corpse …"
Zhou Yang sucked in a breath of cold air. He immediately turned around and flew out. Wen Xiyu shouted, "Run!" and followed Zhou Yang out of the stone chamber.
Both he and Wen Xiyu had already seen how terrifying this thing was. Once someone touched it, they would not be far from death.
As expected, the person who was pulled forward by Zhao Yinqing soon began to tremble and bleed. Then, countless black beetles swarmed out of his eyes and body.
"It's a gu!"
With a loud shout, everyone fled toward the main hall together. The black mass of Gu insects chased after them closely, as if they were treating these people as objects.
"It's Zhou Yang!"
Inside the hall, Wen Zhihuan laughed heartily. "Zhou Yang, I was just about to go look for you. I didn't expect you to …"
"Run!"
Zhou Yang directly interrupted Wen Zhihuan's words and quickly ran toward the stone table.
Wen Zhihuan and the others in the hall were startled. They looked behind Zhou Yang and suddenly turned pale. They saw a large number of black insects gushing out of the passage. The few people who were running at the back were quickly drowned by the army of black insects.
"This is a corpse. You will die if you encounter it. Quickly take out the key and open the entrance." Xu Zhentian said solemnly.
After saying that, Xu Zhentian took out a key and inserted it into the stone table. On the other side, Xu Yechen also took out a key.
Two keys!
Zhou Yang was overjoyed. The key in his hand shot out and hit the stone hole. Suddenly, the stone table shone brightly. Then, the stone table split into three parts and a huge suction force came from below.
Xu Zhentian and the Snake King were the first to jump into the stone table. Everyone followed closely. However, after ten breaths of time, the stone table returned to its original position. Those who didn't enter became food for the Gu insects.
Screams resounded from below. Zhou Yang still had a lingering fear. This time, there were more Gu insects than the last time he and Wen Xiyu had encountered. Even he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist them.
Fortunately, he escaped in time.
"Hmm? Why haven't I landed … "
After regaining his senses, Zhou Yang realized that he was still in the process of sinking. Moreover, his speed was extremely fast. There seemed to be a strong suction force from below.
Whoosh …
A gust of wind blew. Zhou Yang felt as if he had been sucked into the wind. He wanted to revolve his True Elemental Energy to resist, but he remembered his experience in the Sword Catacomb. He immediately calmed down and followed the wind.
After a while, he finally felt his feet sink. He had landed!
Everything in front of him was golden and he couldn't see anything clearly. However, he heard footsteps and knew that there were people nearby.
"Tie Xing, where are you? Quickly come and find me. I can't see anymore." The voice came from Zhao Yinqing.
"Yinqing, stand there and don't move. I'll find you …"
Tie Xing's words made Zhou Yang frown. This guy could actually see things in the golden light … He immediately released his Nine Eyes Star Soul and looked around. He saw six people around him. In addition to Tie Xing and Zhao Yinqing, there were Wen Xiyu, Jiang Wancheng, Song Tianying and Cheng Xinger.
Zhou Yang heaved a sigh of relief. As long as Xu Zhentian and the Snake King weren't there, he didn't care.
"Brother, where are you?" Wen Xiyu shouted blankly.
"Yu 'er, I'm here. Quickly follow the voice …" The voice was very similar to Wen Zhihuan's. However, Zhou Yang discovered that the person who spoke was not Wen Zhihuan, but Jiang Wancheng.
Zhou Yang smiled coldly and quietly walked to Jiang Wancheng's side. He knew that Jiang Wancheng couldn't see either. The only people who could see were him and Tie Xing.
"Brother, are you here?" Wen Xiyu asked as she felt around.
"I'm here …"
Jiang Wancheng immediately felt around and grabbed a hand. Immediately after, he had an intoxicated look on his face as he caressed it.
"Brother, where is this? Why can't we see?" Wen Xiyu asked curiously.
"I don't know. Yu 'er, let me hold you. We can't see here. It's too dangerous." Jiang Wancheng said as he stretched out his other hand.
"Jiang Wancheng, do you not want your hand anymore?"
Jiang Wancheng's body trembled when he heard the cold voice. He immediately let go of his hand and said with a red face, "You … you are Zhou Yang?"
"Of course. Who do you think I am? Wen Xiyu?" Zhou Yang sneered and clapped his hands.
