On a black mountain riddled with jagged rocks that towered into the heavens. (/baojian/treasured mirror)
The words "Manor of Ten Thousand Beasts" filled a precipice that was several hundred meters tall.
Various totems of wild beasts were vaguely carved on the precipice. There were common birds and beasts, as well as spiritual birds and exotic beasts that only existed in legends.
Roar!
A roar filled with wildness and fury shook up the mountains. All the birds and beasts trembled.
A disheveled old man as dignified as a lion appeared on the edge of the precipice, gazing in the direction of the Green province.
"Who killed E Dan!?"
… …
The moment Li Qingshan killed E Dan, he suddenly felt a deep chill. The spirit turtle also gave off an intense omen of warning.
Even without the spirit turtle's divination, he could guess that killing E Dan had already provoked an extremely terrifying figure, and that figure was not someone he could oppose right now.
"Master, the Beast King!"
He mulled over the two words before tossing them to the back of his head. As his understanding of the spirit turtle deepened, he became more and more sensitive to omens of good and bad.
This was a predestined fate, but it was not imminent. The Beast King would receive news of E Dan's death, learn who the murderer was from Jia Zhen, and then travel from the Dragon province to the Green province. It would take him a lot of time. Within the killing intent, there was still a chance of survival. Even if he could not defeat them, could he not flee?
In short, if it was a blessing, it was not a curse, and if it was a curse, he could not avoid it. There was no need for him to worry unnecessarily.
Li Qingshan yawned and looked at the blood-red swirl in the sky. He had no idea whether E Dan's soul had already returned to the Asura realm, or whether it had been devoured by the beast soul and completely vanished from the world.
He lowered his head and looked at the greyish-black golden core in his hand. The totem of a black wolf could be vaguely seen on it, giving off a wild and savage presence.
Stepping out of the Asura Field, he arrived over five kilometers underground. A small river gurgled through the darkness. Helicoverpa Rosa lay on the riverbank nearby, completely naked.
Although she seemed extremely weak, her wounds had basically all healed. There was only a bloody gash on her waist that had yet to heal. This type of injury wouldn't take her life, but it was undoubtedly a serious injury. Even her scarlet lips lost a bit of color.
Helicoverpa Rosa looked at him from behind. "You won again."
"Hehe, it's all thanks to you. Open your mouth! "
Li Qingshan walked over and hugged her back. He took out a section of the banyan tree trunk and squeezed it hard. Milky white sap dripped down. It fell into her mouth.
Soon, the injuries on her body were completely healed, and her lips regained some color. She continued to stare at him with a strange expression. He vaguely understood why the Golden Cicada Spirit King treated him with special respect and even treated him as an equal. There was something different about him that allowed him to grow from a small demon general under her command to where he was today.
Helicoverpa Rosa regained some of her demonic energy. Li Qingshan patted her cheek. "Alright, you can go back now!"
Helicoverpa Rosa suddenly hugged his neck. "Have you forgotten something?"
"Hmm?"
"You said you'd do me if you won. Now you've won!" Helicoverpa Rosa licked her lips and said in a low and seductive voice.
Li Qingshan and Helicoverpa Rosa had done it many times, but they were all forceful. She couldn't resist and only half-heartedly agreed. This was the first time she took the initiative to make love. He couldn't help but smile. This also meant that she no longer thought about revenge and completely accepted his existence.
It wasn't love, it was nothing more than acknowledging the strong and obeying the strong. But this was enough for Li Qingshan. He pinched her chin and smiled. "Fortunately, you're not too stupid. Otherwise, I'm afraid that one day I'll really kill you with my own hands. That would be too much of a waste!"
The reason why he didn't kill Helicoverpa Rosa was initially because of the law that monsters couldn't kill each other. Later, he took the face of the Golden Cicada Spirit King into consideration. As for what made him the happiest, it was not the most important reason.
Whether it was a woman or a banshee, there were many of them in the world. Even if he was lustful, he didn't need to hang himself on this tree. Not to mention, beauty was not his biggest pursuit.
When he became stronger and could ignore all these rules, if she was still looking at him with that kind of hatred in her eyes, he might just laugh it off and not take it to heart. Or he might change his mind and settle old scores with her, and then he would raise his blade and strike.
"That day won't come." Helicoverpa Rosa took the initiative to raise her head and kiss his lips.
Li Qingshan raised his hand to cover her lips. "I still have something to do. You go back and wait for me! Oh right, don't forget to hide a little deeper. The storm hasn't ended yet! "
After seeing off Helicoverpa Rosa, Li Qingshan's smile faded. He immediately returned to Moon Court lake. The storm was still pouring down, and the waves were still rising and falling, but it was no longer as intense as before.
From afar, he could see the final few formations still enveloping the Moon Court dwelling, which made him stop worrying. What he worried about the most was Jia Zhen returning and unleashing a massacre in the Moon Court dwelling.
Although he did not have any special feelings towards night roamers, he still cared about Ye Liusu and her sister very much. They had performed quite well in the battle this time. If it were not for the two sneak attacks from the shadow, Jia Zhen would never have fled so quickly, which made things rather difficult for him.
On the black altar, Ye Mingzhu still had her eyes firmly shut, standing in the centre of the altar. The shadow lingered around her. She had no idea about the situation, so she was afraid to disperse the Night Roaming God for now.
All the weaker night roamers in the surroundings had already fainted on the ground. Even the more powerful night roamers tottered about slightly.
Ye Mingzhu suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the figure walking over from the col. The shadow merged with the darkness and appeared behind Li Qingshan, ready to strike. Only when it saw him did it stop. Ye Mingzhu knelt down in a hurry. "Master!"
When the other night roamers saw the scarlet-haired, scarlet-eyed figure, they all beamed with joy, let alone Ye Liusu and Ye Liubo.
No matter what, the fate of the night roamers in this region had already become linked to him. It was indeed through him that he had freed them from Helicoverpa Rosa's control, allowing them to survive under the stars.
Actually, the main reason was that Li Qingshan was just too busy. He really did not have much time to oppress them. If he were as bored as Helicoverpa Rosa, he probably would have enjoyed the decadent life of a ruler. At most, he would not be as deviant as her.
Li Qingshan nodded slightly and smiled in approval at Ye Liusu and Ye Liubo. "You've all done well. Everyone here today will be rewarded!" He arrived before the black altar. He tapped it gently. The altar seemed to be carved from a single piece of obsidian. It possessed a wondrous power.
Then he said to Ye Mingzhu, "You're about to break through to the second heavenly tribulation, right?"
"Yes, master."
"This is an Origin Spirit pill. It's used by humans when they break through to the second heavenly tribulation. I wonder if it's effective on night roamers. "Li Qingshan tossed it casually. Ye Mingzhu caught the Origin Spirit pill in surprise and joy. "Thank you for your reward, master. I want to ingest the pill right now."
Although she was a little exhausted after the battle, the power of the Night Roaming God still resided in her body. Her will was unprecedentedly powerful. This was without a doubt a heaven-sent opportunity.
"Up to you." Li Qingshan also wanted to see what it would be like to undergo the second heavenly tribulation so that he could make some preparations for the upcoming tribulation.
Ye Mingzhu immediately ingested the Origin Spirit pill. She sat down on the altar with her legs crossed. The shadows that lingered around her gradually dispersed, and the power that belonged to her surged out, enveloping her surroundings.
With a rumble of thunder, lightning descended from above.
The night roamers all retreated to the surrounding hills. On the peak with the best location, Li Qingshan smiled at Ye Liusu and Ye Liubo. "It really has been a long time. You've done well this time. How do you want me to reward you? "
Ye Liubo grumbled, "And I thought you'd forgotten about us, master. Everyone says they can't split themselves up, but master, you have both a true body and a clone, yet you don't even know to visit us! I don't care about rewards. I just want what you owe me. "
"What do I owe you?"
"Ah! Master, you've actually forgotten! I want a child! "Ye Liubo seemed like she was about to burst into tears.
"Alright, alright, alright. We'll have one when we get back." Only when Li Qingshan agreed did Ye Liubo smile from ear to ear. She wrapped her arms around his waist firmly as if she was afraid he would flee.
Then Li Qingshan asked, "What about you, Liusu?"
"I'm not bold enough to ask for anything. I'll be satisfied as long as you show me even the slightest bit of affection. I wonder which one is easier compared to having a child?"
Ye Liusu turned around and smiled. She stared into his eyes with her starry eyes.
Li Qingshan raised his eyebrows and broke into laughter. His elder sister's displeasure was even greater than his younger sister's. He lowered his head and kissed her gently on the lips.
"I'm sorry. I really do have a little too much on my plate. Although I killed an opponent this time, his master is the Beast King of the Dragon province. He'll probably come looking for trouble very soon, so I can't stop yet!"
Ye Liusu was greatly touched. She had never expected him to explain or even apologize to her so sincerely. With his power, there was no need for him to care about what she thought. She said with deep emotion, "You've already given me enough, yet I can't help you with anything. However, I always think of you, and no matter what, everything I have belongs to you!"
"Sister?" Under Ye Liubo's surprised gaze, Ye Liusu's face reddened and she lowered her head.
Li Qingshan smiled. "Do you want a child too?"
"As long as you want it."
Ye Liusu turned around and gazed at the valley. The flickering lightning constantly illuminated her face. She gradually became rather worried. "Can mother undergo the tribulation successfully?"
Who knew how many years it had already been since a second heavenly tribulation expert had emerged from the night roamers in this region. First of all, the night roamers were at each other's throats. Once a genius like that appeared, the other clans would do everything they could to kill them.
Then, there was the suppression from Helicoverpa Rosa. She only needed a single word to summon them into Cobweb city and devour them for what the other clans could not achieve. Finally, without a wondrous pill like the Origin Spirit pill, overcoming the second heavenly tribulation with her own strength was not easy either.
"Don't worry. If she weren't confident, she wouldn't have chosen to undergo the tribulation right now."
According to Li Qingshan's observations, the power of the second heavenly tribulation was not particularly terrifying. At the very least, he felt like he would be fine. Of course, this confidence was based on his unbelievably tough body.
Ye Mingzhu was not that powerful, but she had been stuck at this bottleneck for so many years, so the foundation she had built up was extremely deep. The Origin Spirit pill was just a final push to her.
Sure enough, when the last bolt of lightning fell, Ye Mingzhu remained standing on the black altar. She was filled with joy.
"Everyone retreat to the underground! No, all of you, come to my side! "
Li Qingshan suddenly ordered loudly. He gazed in the direction of the Dragon province. His tribulation had arrived!
