Queen Mother of the West looked at the door with a solemn expression. The aura outside was too strong and familiar, which worried her.
"Mother, it doesn't look like an ordinary high god," Ming Xi whispered to Ye Zhen.
"Yes." Ye Zhen could feel it too. She didn't know who it was, but to appear in the human continent without concealing his aura meant that he didn't come with good intentions.
"Little Yao, don't come out with Ming Xi," Queen Mother of the West said.
Ye Zhen frowned and said, "No, I'm worried."
Ming Xi looked at the door with a sharp gaze. "He's here."
Even the little monster that was playing at the side became serious. He walked to Ming Xi's side, and his body seemed to have grown bigger.
"Where's the sacred beast, where's the sacred beast?" A deep voice came from the door.
Hearing this, Queen Mother of the West's expression became even more solemn.
Was he here for the sacred beast?
Who else knew about the little monster?
Ye Zhen was astonished. There was definitely no one on the human continent. The only ones who knew about the sacred beast were Shang 'er and Wen Tian, which meant that they came from somewhere else.
Nine Heavens!
It couldn't be the Grand Emperor, right?
No, this wasn't the Grand Emperor's voice, but Ye Zhen couldn't remember who it belonged to.
Not long after, a figure appeared by the door. It was an old man in a long black robe. His white hair reached his waist, and he walked slowly. However, he gave off a chilling feeling of fear.
This person didn't have any evil aura, but he still made people feel afraid.
"Sacred beast!" When the old man saw the little monster, his drooping eyes suddenly opened, and he didn't hide the greed in them.
The little monster hissed at him. Although it had a fierce aura, it looked cute and couldn't scare anyone.
"Du Xing." Queen Mother of the West looked at the person and confirmed his identity.
"Zhongjin … You're here too." Old Freak Du looked up at Queen Mother of the West and grinned. "What a coincidence."
Queen Mother of the West's expression was cold. "Why are you here?"
"I'm here to find the sacred beast." Du Xing didn't hide his purpose. "Queen Mother of the West, give me the sacred beast, and I'll go back."
"Impossible!" Queen Mother of the West rejected coldly. "There's no sacred beast here."
Du Xing laughed lightly. "Zhongjin, it's been tens of thousands of years, and you still like lying. Look, the sacred beast is here."
"What does it have to do with you? Old man, don't you understand that you shouldn't casually take other people's things? "Ming Xi berated.
"You are …" Du Xing finally turned to look at Ming Xi. He looked Ming Xi up and down. "Young Emperor's son. Is the sacred beast yours?"
The little monster jumped onto Ming Xi's shoulder and stared at Du Xing.
Queen Mother of the West took a few steps forward and stood in front of Ming Xi, facing Du Xing. "Did the Grand Emperor ask you to come?"
"Zhongjin, it can be said that we haven't seen each other for many years. In any case, we are old acquaintances. How about we sit down and have a good chat?" Du Xing said with a smile.
"We have nothing to say," Queen Mother of the West said indifferently. No one knew better than her why Du Xing had appeared here.
Tens of thousands of years ago, she, Du Xing, and the Grand Emperor were innocent. However, he and the Grand Emperor killed her people together. This blood feud couldn't be revealed, but since the disappearance of the dragon slayer race, she was only the Queen Mother of the West.
She was no longer Zhongjin.
"I guess the Grand Emperor doesn't know that his grandson is a dragon slayer." Du Xing looked at Ming Xi. If the Grand Emperor knew that his grandson was a dragon slayer, he definitely wouldn't have let him come to the human continent.
Instead, he came personally.
"He doesn't know now, but he will in the future," Queen Mother of the West said.
Du Xing said, "You know the attitude of the gods toward the dragon slayer race. If they know that the dragon slayer race exists, they definitely won't tolerate it."
"So what if they won't tolerate it?" Queen Mother of the West asked with a faint smile. "Will they kill Ming Xi?"
"Zhongjin, you should know that this sacred beast is still a cub. It's not enough to scare the gods," Du Xing said slowly. "If the White Dragon King knows, he will definitely appear."
Queen Mother of the West said plainly, "The same thing won't happen twice."
"Are you so sure?" Du Xing asked.
"How many sacred beasts did you poison back then? Do you want to do the same thing again? "Queen Mother of the West asked.
Du Xing shook his head. "No, there was a problem with my medicine last time. Actually, I didn't want to poison the sacred beast. Tens of thousands of years ago, only the dragon slayer race could rear sacred beasts. I just couldn't accept it and wanted to know why our god race couldn't rear sacred beasts. I just wanted to capture the sacred beast, but I didn't expect …"
Queen Mother of the West said, "You don't have to explain to me. If you want to snatch the sacred beast, you can try."
"Sigh." Du Xing sighed. "Zhongjin, why do you have to do this?"
Ming Xi took two steps forward. "Old man, what do you want the sacred beast for? It's mine. If you want it, discuss it with me. "
"Are you willing to give the sacred beast to me?" Du Xing asked with a smile.
"That depends on whether you have a way to take the little monster away." Ming Xi replied with a bright smile.
Queen Mother of the West said in a low voice, "Ming Xi, don't bother with him."
"If I can take it away, will you give the sacred beast to me?" Du Xing asked.
Ming Xi glanced at him with a smile that didn't seem like a smile. He patted the little monster on his shoulder. "Alright, let's try."
Queen Mother of the West's expression tensed up. She knew very well why Du Xing had appeared here, but Ming Xi didn't understand him. Although Du Xing was an Exalted God, he never distinguished between evil and evil. Just like the flowers and plants he planted in Penglai. Although they looked ordinary, every single one of them was poisonous. For tens of thousands of years, Du Xing had been researching how to tame sacred beasts.
He seemed to have an indescribable obsession with sacred beasts.
The dragon slayer race had been exterminated so quickly because the sacred beast had been poisoned to death by Du Xing's medicine.
Even she couldn't understand why a sacred beast would eat Du Xing's medicine.
"Alright." Du Xing nodded excitedly, his eyes staring at the little monster.
Du Xing took out a black object. It looked like meat, but it was unknown what it was. There was a faint smell of meat in the air.
The little monster ran over to Du Xing, attracted by the meat in his hand.
"You can't eat it!" Queen Mother of the West shouted anxiously. "Ming Xi, hurry up and call the little monster back. You can't eat anything that belongs to Old Freak Du."
Just as Queen Mother of the West finished speaking, the little monster had already swallowed the black object in one gulp.
"…" Fear flashed in Queen Mother's eyes.
Du Xing looked at the sacred beast eating with relish. A complacent smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, as though he was determined to obtain the sacred beast.
Queen Mother of the West's face paled. "No …"
"Young man, you have to keep your word," Du Xing said.
Ming Xi only looked at him indifferently.
"Come, come in." Du Xing took out a cage and lured the little monster inside.
The little monster glanced at him and walked over to the cage.
Queen Mother of the West hurriedly looked at Ming Xi. "Ming Xi?"
