"Me?" Nie Tian was stunned by the old man's sudden words. He smiled faintly and said, "Old mister, I'm afraid you didn't come here just to ask me to beg you."
The old man smiled faintly and said, "Nie Tian, you're a smart man. You should know that there's a price to pay for asking someone for help. Furthermore, the person in front of you is not an ordinary person. Once he dies, it will affect the survival of the two clans. Hence, his life is very important and he must be saved in exchange for someone else's life. "
"What do you mean by that, Mister?" Nie Tian could tell that the old man was implying something. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows as his heart tightened.
"If I want you to exchange her life for his, would you be willing to do so?" The old man's calm expression suddenly changed. The calmness in his eyes disappeared and was replaced by coldness. His eyes were like sharp blades as they locked onto Ruoyu Qianye.
Nie Tian thought that this sudden scene made him shudder. He took a step forward and stood in front of Ruoyu Qianye. He asked coldly, "What do you think?"
He had already guessed the old man's identity and he knew that the old man had come for the Ten Annihilations Evil Woman. However, the old man's direct intimidation made him angry.
Li You's life was indeed very important. It was related to the Dragon Tribe's three prophecies and the Angel Tribe's Forbidden Child. If she really died, it would most likely cause the fate of the two clans.
However, it was obviously impossible for Nie Tian to exchange Ruoyu Qianye's life for Li You's.
How could one's life be exchanged so easily?
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense. A hidden pressure made it difficult for everyone to breathe.
Su Qing's face suddenly changed and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. His lips trembled slightly, but he could not say a word.
This old man had been able to hide in the Wan Yuan Pavilion for a few days without anyone noticing. His strength was unimaginable.
Even though the Wan Yuan Pavilion was guarded by dozens of Sky Martial Arts Divine Ancestor level powerhouses, they might not be a match for the old man.
Most importantly, the old man was so close to them. Once he attacked, it would be instantaneous. Nie Tian and the others would not have a chance to fight back at all.
"Sir, I'm willing to exchange my life for his." At this moment, a voice broke the silence. Zhu Xiyi stood up and spoke with a serious expression.
"Your life?" The old man glanced at Zhu Xiyi and said in an extremely disdainful tone, "Forgive me for being blunt, but your life is not heavy enough!"
"This …" Zhu Xiyi was stunned and couldn't speak for a moment.
He was a smart man. He could tell that the old man was here for Ruoyu Qianye.
He was not familiar with Ruoyu Qianye at all. He only knew that she had suddenly appeared next to Nie Tian and was extremely close to Nie Tian. He knew nothing else.
He had secretly probed Ruoyu Qianye's aura. There was a hidden power in her body, which shocked him greatly.
He even felt that Ruoyu Qianye was more terrifying than Nie Tian!
"Nie Tian, you should know who she is. Hand her over to me. Not only can you save your friend, but you can also save the world. Isn't that good?" The old man's expression changed again. His eyes wandered around Nie Tian's face as he tried to persuade him.
"Save the world?" Nie Tian frowned and smiled coldly. "If I can't even protect the people around me, how can I save the world?"
Then, his face fell and he said, "You are not here to save people. What is your purpose? Just say it."
"Nie Tian, I have seen many stupid people in my life, but it's my first time seeing someone as stupid as you." The old man looked at Nie Tian and felt the determination in the latter's eyes. A strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then, before Nie Tian could react, he looked at Su Qing and said in a low voice, "Prepare a secret chamber and send him in. I will treat him there. No one is to disturb him!"
"Ah? Mm! "Su Qing was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted. He nodded in surprise and ran into the inner hall like a gust of wind.
"You, you want to save him?" Zhu Xiyi also reacted at this moment. He was so overjoyed that he was speechless.
"He can't hold on any longer. It'll be too late if we don't save him now." The old man responded Su Qing coldly and then glared at Nie Tian. "Kid, you're not allowed to go anywhere. Wait for me in the hall!"
Nie Tian frowned. He was a little dumbfounded by this sudden change of events.
Soon, everyone went into the inner hall, leaving only Nie Tian and Ruoyu Qianye in the hall.
After a moment of silence, Ruoyu Qianye finally could not help but ask, "Nie Tian, what is the power that I have awakened in my body?"
"Ten Annihilation Evil Woman," Nie Tian hesitated for a moment and decided not to hide it anymore. He told her everything about the Ten Annihilation Evil Woman.
"The Nine Heavens Evil Woman descends to kill, the Ten Annihilation Evil Woman." Ruoyu Qianye frowned slightly after listening to Nie Tian. She pondered for a while and then fell into a deep silence.
"Qianye, the Ten Annihilation Evil Woman is just a kind of bloodline power. It's just stronger than other bloodlines, so it's regarded as a taboo by the world. After a moment, Nie Tian said indifferently, "The so-called doomsday prophecy is just a rumor. You don't have to worry about it."
"A rumor?" Ruoyu Qianye forced a smile and sighed softly. "If that's really the case, why didn't you tell me about it directly? And what's with this old man who suddenly appeared?"
"I just don't want you to worry," Nie Tian said after being stunned for a moment.
"I don't care if the Ten Annihilation Evil Woman is doomsday or taboo. I only know that this power belongs to me, and no one can take it away." Ruoyu Qianye's gaze changed slightly. It seemed to have returned to its previous coldness in an instant as she said in a deep voice.
"Qianye, don't worry. I won't allow anyone to hurt you as long as I'm here," Nie Tian frowned when he sensed the change in Ruoyu Qianye and said in a heavy tone.
Ruoyu Qianye looked at Nie Tian with a hint of sadness on her delicate and beautiful face. She said indifferently, "What if I hurt someone else?"
"You, you won't." Nie Tian was stunned and panicked as he quickly said.
"Are you sure?" The corner of Ruoyu Qianye's mouth twitched as a hint of evil appeared on her face.
"I'm sure!" Nie Tian nodded and said, "You're a kind person. You won't hurt anyone else."
"In this world, being kind is probably equivalent to being weak." Ruoyu Qianye smiled bitterly and said as she looked into the distance.
Nie Tian was stunned. He could not understand why Ruoyu Qianye would change so suddenly and strangely.
"It's that old man!" At this moment, Fat Cat exclaimed, "What did he do to Ruoyu Qianye?"
"Hmm?" Nie Tian's eyes trembled as he looked at Ruoyu Qianye. The latter's eyes were cold and deep like an abyss, hiding a darkness that could not be looked at.
