Inside Tianhu.
Lin Qi and Lin Yue were trembling.
They were panicking.
They had been immersed in their enlightenment.
This place was indeed different from other places. Not only was the Spiritual Qi abundant, but there seemed to be a mystical Daoist Connotation. As long as they sat on the stone, the Daoist Connotation would naturally appear in their minds.
How much one could grasp, how much one could comprehend, would depend on one's talent.
In any case, one day of enlightenment in this place was equivalent to a few months or even a few years in other places.
However, they didn't expect that after a few days of epiphany, they would suddenly realize that something was wrong.
A group of haggard, zombie-like old men had suddenly appeared in all directions of the Tianhu.
They all stood there expressionlessly, like a group of terrifying statues.
But once someone tried to leave, they would stop him.
Some people did not believe it and tried to force their way out with their strength. Soon, they paid a heavy price.
Although they did not die, they were basically crippled.
Those zombie-like old men were too terrifying!
Even in the eyes of Grandmasters like Lin Qi and Lin Yue, they were unfathomable.
What happened?
Was Young Master Duan going to kill them after they had outlived their usefulness?
The other young prodigies of the Tianhu Star were also in a state of panic and unease.
Only the six Bottle Gourd Brothers and their princess, Ouyang Xingqi, sat cross-legged on the black stone with their eyes closed from beginning to end.
In fact, when they first found out that they were surrounded, the six Bottle Gourd Brothers were also quite frightened.
It was Ouyang Xingqi who secretly comforted them.
"Since you can't get out, just stay here and practice. If these people wanted to kill someone, they would have done it long ago. "
As she comforted them, the group gradually calmed down.
When Duan Yong brought the zombie-like old man and Bai Muye's group to the Tianhu Lake, many people were stunned the moment they opened their eyes and saw them!
Why was the champion team of the Zulong Empire with Duan Yong?
And they seemed to be quite familiar with each other. They were talking and laughing, and seemed to be on good terms … What was going on?
The ones who were the most terrified were Lin Qi and Lin Yue, the two fools.
Because at the instant Duan Yong appeared, they'd actually heard the other young geniuses from Skylake Star address him as' Young Master Duan 'or' Young Master Duan '.
Young Master Duan was nothing. After all, he was a young master of the Duan Family. He could be called Young Master Duan.
But what the hell was a Crown Prince?
Wasn't the heir Duan Yong?
How could there be two princes in such an ancient family?
That was definitely impossible!
Although Lin Qi and Lin Yue weren't very promising, they were still disciples of the Lin Clan of the Hidden Clan. It wasn't that they didn't understand this basic common sense.
Therefore, the two of them were no longer shivering, they were completely panicking!
Why would Lin Zixi walk together with this person?
Why was Lin Zijin still walking so intimately with Shirō Makino, but chatting and laughing with that fellow that the young prodigy of Tianhu Planet called 'Crown Prince'?
At this moment, the two of them were extremely flustered.
There must be a problem here!
Did the previous' Young Master Duan 'lie to them?
But when Young Master Duan came here, he acted completely like a host!
Due to their sensitive identities, the two of them didn't attend that banquet. Instead, they were arranged to stay in a quiet manor. Young Master Duan even warmly entertained them with good wine, good food, and good women!
Those women were all the best in the world. Those waists, those legs, those …
Now that they thought about it …
Even the head of the Duan Clan, Duan Yuanxin, personally went to greet them!
Things went smoothly after that. After the two of them changed their appearances, they were arranged to join the young prodigies of Tianhu Planet.
They also understood that this was done to deceive others.
After all, they were two outsiders, and two old fellows at that. It wasn't appropriate for them to appear here with their original appearances.
But why?
Why did it turn out like this?
Our Young Master Duan … Where did he go?
After Duan Yong brought Shirō Makino and the others in, he first scanned them. Then, his gaze stopped on Lin Qi and Lin Yue.
He said softly, "Take those two down."
Lin Qi and Lin Yue stood up immediately. Their heads were a little numb.
Looking at the two zombie-like old men who were emitting a decaying aura, the two of them panicked completely.
Lin Yue tore off the human skin mask on his face and shouted at Lin Zijin, "Zijin, Zijin, it's me!"
Lin Zijin frowned slightly. She looked at Lin Yue and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
"I'm you … Sigh, I'm from the Lin Clan! I'm Lin Yue, according to seniority … "
"I don't know you. I've never heard of you. I don't have many relatives." Lin Zijin interrupted Lin Yue's self-introduction indifferently.
On the other side, Lin Qi saw that Lin Yue couldn't keep his composure and exposed his identity. His heart was filled with hatred, but there was nothing he could do. He also tore off the human skin mask on his face and looked at Lin Zijin. "Zijin, you …"
"I don't know you either. Don't talk to me," Lin Zijin said coldly.
The other young prodigies of Tianhu Planet were a little shocked by this scene. Even if they didn't know what happened, they still recognized the Duan Clan's Young Master.
"Young Master, what happened? Are these two spies from the outside? "
"Do you want us to capture these two spies?"
"Young Master, we can't let these two go!"
They were all a group of smart people. Even if they still didn't know what happened, they knew that spies had snuck into the group.
If they didn't show it now, when would they show it?
Lin Qi said loudly, "Zijin, we are of the same clan. Please explain to … explain to Young Master Duan that this is a misunderstanding. We were also tricked!"
Lin Yue also reacted at this time and said loudly, "That's right, Zijin. We are of the same clan after all. I am still your elder …"
Lin Qi, who was beside him, glared at Lin Yue. You're still pretending to be an elder at a time like this!
When you sold her out, you didn't hesitate at all. Instead of acting pitiful to gain sympathy, you still want to act like a senior!
Even if Lin Zijin really returns to the Lin Clan, her status is many levels higher than us from the side branches. You are a f * cking idiot!
Is Lin Yue really that stupid?
Obviously not.
He wanted to use this method to force Lin Zijin to speak.
How could he not see that he had been tricked by that "Young Master Duan"?
Although he still couldn't figure out what went wrong, it was obvious that the person in front of him was the real Crown Prince of Tianhu —
Duan Yong!
Because these young geniuses from Tianhu Planet couldn't possibly be mistaken!
Duan Yong tilted his head and looked at Lin Zijin. Lin Zijin said expressionlessly, "I have nothing to do with them."
"Yes, they were the ones who wanted to sell you to that trash." Duan Yong smiled.
Lin Zijin's brows flashed coldly, but she didn't say anything.
At this time, the two zombie-like old men who exuded a decaying aura had already arrived in front of them. Without saying a word, they stretched out their hands to take down Lin Qi and Lin Yue.
"Zijin, listen to me. We were really tricked by a fake Crown Prince of Tianhu! We … "As Lin Qi spoke, the old man's hand had already grabbed his arm.
But he didn't dare to resist!
That was because there was a young genius from Tianhu Planet who didn't believe it and was slapped away by the zombie-like old man like a fly.
Although that young genius was only at the Grandmaster Realm, he wasn't a weakling!
These zombie-like old men were at least at the Advanced or Peak Grandmaster Realm.
If he resisted, he would probably suffer a heavy blow in the next second.
Lin Qi's mind raced and he was already panicking.
However, Lin Zijin didn't say anything. She let him and Lin Yue, who also didn't dare to resist, be controlled by the two zombie-like old men.
"Seal them," Duan Yong said.
"No …" Lin Qi had just said one word when the shackles on his body that he had already broken through were instantly hit hard.
In the next moment, he bent over like a big shrimp and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His strength had already been sealed to the level of a Level Three or Level Four Spiritual Warrior.
Lin Qi, who had his head lowered, was filled with endless horror. How was this a seal? This was clearly crippling their strength!
Those shackles that he had already broken through were now a mess!
It would be impossible for him to completely recover without a few years or even more than a decade.
Lin Yue also received the same treatment. He was filled with regret. Why did he take advantage of others? Didn't he already decide not to meddle in the matters between Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin?
Why did he not learn from his mistakes?
Now it was too late for regrets. He really wanted to slap himself hard.
Then, Duan Yong's gaze fell on the seven champions of the Holy Empire who had also woken up but did not show any unusual movements.
Shan Gu looked at Ouyang Xingqi with deep concern in his eyes.
Ouyang Xingqi was stunned for a moment. Then, she slowly stood up and walked towards Shan Gu under the puzzled gaze of the six Calabash Brothers.
She came in front of Shan Gu and glanced at the others.
Duan Yong looked at this beautiful young lady with great interest. He seemed to be curious about what she would say.
Ji Chae Yi and Lin Zijin were also quite curious.
Ouyang Xingqi looked at Shan Gu and said softly, "Although I don't know what happened, if you are affected because of us, please don't feel embarrassed."
Didn't ask for mercy?
Duan Yong was stunned for a moment. Then, the smile in the depths of his eyes deepened.
Shan Gu scratched his bald head and said, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Ouyang Xingqi pursed her lips and glanced at Shan Gu.
Her heart instantly calmed down.
Even she was a little surprised.
This guy who looked a little unreliable actually gave her a sense of security?
She was especially gratified that Shan Gu did not say anything similar to a confession at this time.
She nodded lightly, "Thank you."
Shan Gu glanced at Duan Yong.
Duan Yong looked at Shirō Makino and said, "Are you relieved?"
Shirō Makino smiled slightly, "Yes, thank you!"
"Don't mention it. Alright, let's cultivate first. There's still time. I have to make some arrangements," Duan Yong said.
"Okay, then it's a month limit," Shirō Makino said.
Duan Yong nodded and left.
Except for the people of the Rune Dragon Squad, the rest of the people present were all confused.
Lin Qi and Lin Yue were taken away by two zombie-like old men who emitted a rotten aura.
When they were taken away, they were still wailing, hoping that Lin Zijin could help them clarify.
But they did not get any response.
In the end, Lin Yue finally couldn't help but curse.
Inhumane, cruel and unscrupulous, and so on.
Lin Zijin still ignored them.
In fact, on the way here, Duan Yong had already told them their identities, as well as the reason and purpose of their visit.
Although Lin Zijin was very angry when she heard it, she still hoped that Duan Yong would not kill them, but also not let them go!
Thus, the scene just now happened.
Their strength was almost crippled, and it would be very difficult for them to leave the Sky Lake Holy Land in the future.
There would be many old seniors who had lived for countless years here who would care for them.
To Lin Zijin, saving their lives was already the biggest concession she could make.
As for the rest, don't even think about it.
Other than her bloodline, she did not owe the Lin Family anything.
The other young prodigies of the Sky Lake Planet all looked at Shirō Makino and the others with a thirst for knowledge. In fact, even Ouyang Xingqi and the others who had escaped from death were filled with a strange feeling.
They could not understand why Shirō Makino and the others could hang out with Duan Yong, the Crown Prince of the Sky Lake Planet.
It looked like they had even become the distinguished guest of the Crown Prince of the Sky Lake Planet!
After Duan Yong left, the group of zombie-like old men did not leave. They still guarded around the Sky Lake.
But this time, no one tried to escape.
They all knew that something big must have happened, but the Crown Prince probably did not want to kill them. Otherwise, why would he go through so much trouble and just let those old zombies do it?
Ouyang Xingqi looked at Shan Gu and said softly, "You … come with me."
Shan Gu looked at her and said seriously, "If you want to thank me, forget it. I don't like to gain your favor through this method."
Ouyang Xingqi was touched.
Shan Gu continued, "I want to pursue you openly. Not only do I want your body, but I also want your heart!"
Ouyang Xingqi, "…"
She was not touched anymore.
"Young Master Bai, you do it. I have something to say to you."
After saying that, she turned around and left, ignoring Shan Gu.
Shan Gu was confused. What was going on? Wasn't she fine just now? I saw the touched look in her eyes. Why did she get angry in the blink of an eye?
Because of what?
Why did she get angry?
Shirō Makino smiled and nodded. He followed Ouyang Xingqi to the other side.
Shan Gu looked at Chae Yi, Zi Jin, and Si Yin in a daze.
Si Yin omitted.
Zi Jin … omitted.
Shan Gu looked at Chae Yi with a pleading look.
Chae Yi glared at him. "You deserve to be single!"
Shan Gu, "…"
I don't think you're waiting for a blow from me, sister!
Fortunately, Chae Yi felt sorry for him. She said softly, "The first sentence is good. The second sentence is extra!"
"Huh? Extra? I'm serious! "Shan Gu said innocently.
"I already know what you're thinking. You've already confessed in front of everyone. You just have to say it again at a time like this. How do you expect a lady to answer you?" Chae Yi glared at Shan Gu again. She then found a black stone and went to cultivate.
Zi Jin smiled at Shan Gu. "With this standard … it's going to be difficult to fill up a starship!"
Shan Gu, "…"
Si Yin said, "Oh, I understand. Brother Shan Gu, you're a little stupid."
After saying that, she turned around and went to find a stone. Her mushroom head trembled. She left with quite an imposing manner.
Shan Gu glanced at Shirō Makino and Ouyang Xingqi who were chatting softly not far away. He suddenly felt a little awkward.
I think I'm doing very well!
I'm a real man!
Under an old tree, Ouyang Xingqi said softly, "Young Master Bai, thank you!"
"You're welcome." Shirō Makino smiled.
"Although I'm not sure what happened, I know that it must be something big. So … I'm really grateful." Ouyang Xingqi expressed her gratitude sincerely.
"If you're just thanking me, then I've received your kind intentions. You'd better focus on your cultivation. After you go out, you can go back safely. Don't worry." Shirō Makino said.
"No, I, I have something else to say." Ouyang Xingqi looked at Shirō Makino nervously. She didn't know how this handsome young man would react if she told him the truth.
If it were her, she would probably fall out with him immediately.
He saved you out of kindness, but you turned around and said that the reason we came here was to kill you … No one would be able to accept that.
"Forget about the confession. I have a girlfriend, and Shan Gu likes you." Shirō Makino joked.
Ouyang Xingqi's face instantly turned red. She was a little embarrassed and annoyed. She said helplessly, "It's not a confession."
"Oh, that's good." Shirō Makino smiled.
Ouyang Xingqi was speechless.
After being interrupted, Ouyang Xingqi's nervousness decreased a little. She said softly, "Young Master Bai, actually we … we came here with a mission."
Shirō Makino didn't say anything. He looked at her quietly.
Shan Gu was his brother. Since his brother liked this girl, he wanted to see what kind of person she was.
With what she said before, Xiao Bai had a good impression of Ouyang Xingqi.
Not to mention the other six Calabash Brothers, they all followed Ouyang Xingqi's lead.
"Let's put it this way. We are the champions of the Holy Empire High School Tournament. There's no problem with our identity, but we have another identity in private …"
Ouyang Xingqi hesitated for a moment, then told him everything.
Finally, she looked at Shirō Makino and said softly, "Although we gave up the mission at the last moment, our identity is still … so …"
Shirō Makino smiled. "That's it?"
"Yes." Ouyang Xingqi replied softly, then looked at Shirō Makino with a puzzled expression.
"Don't you want to leave the Shangguan family's control?" Shirō Makino asked.
"Of course we want to. We wanted to find a chance to cooperate with Young Master Bai, but now it seems … Young Master Bai has found a partner. Oh right, I have a question. Shangguan Wenping … "
"He's dead." Shirō Makino said.
As expected!
Ouyang Xingqi sighed with some emotion.
"Not only is he dead, everyone that the Shangguan family has set up here … other than you, they're all dead." Shirō Makino said.
Ouyang Xingqi's eyes were filled with shock, then she smiled bitterly. "So, Young Master Bai already knew our identity?"
Shirō Makino nodded.
"So, it's because Shan Gu likes me, that's why …" When Ouyang Xingqi asked this, her face became even redder. She couldn't help but look at Shan Gu, who was constantly looking at them.
"There must be a reason, and it's not a small one." Shirō Makino didn't hide anything. Shan Gu didn't say anything, but he had no problem saying it. "But a large part of it is because of your own choices."
Ouyang Xingqi was stunned, then she nodded. "I understand. Thank you, Young Master Bai!"
"You're welcome." Shirō Makino then nodded to her and went to find some stones to cultivate.
He had just stepped into the Grandmaster level, so he hadn't improved his spiritual power yet. With so many statues on him, what else could he do?
As for consolidating his foundation … this place was perfect!
Seeing Shirō Makino leave, Shan Gu couldn't help but look at Ouyang Xingqi again.
Ouyang Xingqi smiled at him and waved. "Shan Gu."
Shan Gu was instantly overjoyed. He wanted to run over like a husky, but for some reason, he suddenly stopped and pretended to be calm and walked over step by step.
Ouyang Xingqi giggled. When Shan Gu came in front of her, she blushed and asked, "Do you really like me?"
Shan Gu nodded without hesitation. "I do! The first time I saw you, I felt that you were the woman that I must marry in this life! "
"Then, I think we can try to get along," Ouyang Xingqi said in a soft voice.
"What?" Shan Gu didn't hear it clearly and didn't dare to believe it.
"Nothing, let's cultivate." Ouyang Xingqi suddenly smiled and said.
In the distance, the six Calabash Brothers stretched their necks, like six pitiful single dogs looking at their master with another dog.
Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, seeing Ouyang Xingqi's eyes moving, Shan Gu was excited and happy.
Their world suddenly became cold, like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves.
It was full of desolation.
Oh no, the treasure was taken away.
