Yue Yang and Jiang Ying looked at each other and nodded slightly.
The two Spider Queens pulled out their blades vigilantly, ready to attack at any time. Actually, this was just an instinctive reaction. If they were more intelligent, they would understand that if an enemy that even Yue Yang and Jiang Ying could not sense was not a super strong enemy that they could deal with.
The knocking on the door was rhythmic, unlike the polite knocking of a hotel maid.
Moreover, it was impossible for a maid to hide from Yue Yang and Jiang Ying's sharp senses.
Yue Yang opened the door.
In just a few seconds, he had thought of dozens of ways to deal with the situation. However, when he opened the door, he realised that all his plans had failed!
"It's you?" Yue Yang was very surprised.
The person standing in front of Yue Yang was not someone else, but a man that Yue Yang could never imagine but he knew.
He was the hemp-clothed old man that Yue Yang saw the first time he came to the Assassin Guild.
At that time, he was dozing off at the table.
He looked old and frail. If not for his Divine Vision, Yue Yang would not have been able to tell that he was a Ranker.
It was because of his test that Yue Yang obtained the Blood Flower Map of the Soaring Dragon Continent and started his first bounty hunt.
Tonight, he looked at the hemp-clothed old man again.
With his Heaven Eyes Divine Vision, Yue Yang realised that the hemp-clothed old man's strength was still unfathomable. He could not see his true strength at all. When they first met, the hemp-clothed old man gave Yue Yang the feeling of a sleeping dragon. Now, this feeling was even clearer. At first, Yue Yang thought that this hemp-clothed old man was a Level 7 [Overlord] or a Level 8 [Emperor]. Although he got to know many Rankers in the Soaring Dragon Continent, he did not discover the existence of the hemp-clothed old man. He thought it was a little strange, but there were many hermits in the Soaring Dragon Continent, so Yue Yang did not pay much attention.
Until today, Yue Yang realised that he was completely wrong.
This old man was definitely a Super Innate Ranker. The feeling he gave off was similar to the mysterious Night Empress. He was probably an expert of that level.
It could be said that even the Impatiens, who had reached the level of a female sovereign, might not be able to defeat this hemp-clothed old man.
"Brat, what are you standing there for? Aren't you going to invite this old man in for a seat?" The old man in hemp garment was quite generous and walked in with a swagger.
"Senior, you are?" Yue Yang asked respectfully.
If Yue Yang had called the Mudskipper Man "Senior" with a sense of mockery, then the way he addressed the old man was absolutely sincere. When Yue Yang first met him, he felt that this hemp-robed old man was not as simple as he seemed. It was just that his eyes were not sharp enough back then and he could not see through it. Now that he thought about it, when he advanced to the Innate Realm, the pillar of light shot straight into the sky. Many people in White Stone City, especially the bandits, should have been alarmed.
Later on, it was very secretive.
No one knew.
No one saw the Innate Light Pillar. Now that he thought about it, Yue Yang was secretly shocked: Could it be that this old man secretly helped me settle it?
Jiang Ying could not see through the other party's strength and only felt that he was stronger than her grandfather. She hurriedly invited him to sit down and personally poured a cup of tea for the old man. Even though she could not understand the other party's intentions, it did not seem like he had ill intentions. Jiang Ying did not dare to be negligent. The old man generously accepted the tea and casually commented: "Brat, your wife is not bad. Nowadays, there are very few young people who know how to respect their elders. It's rare!"
Hornless Dragon Jiang Ying heard this and blushed.
She looked at Yue Yang. Originally she wanted to argue that she was not his wife, but when the words reached her mouth, she did not say it.
After that, she peeked at Yue Yang. Seeing that he did not correct her, her face became even redder.
With trembling fingers, she poured a cup of tea for Yue Yang but did not dare to pass it to him. She only placed it in front of him and quickly withdrew her hand, as if she was afraid of touching his hand. Yue Yang laughed and patted the seat beside him: "Wife, sit here!"
Jiang Ying heard this and coquettishly rolled her eyes at him.
She meant that he should not be too greedy. That kind of young girl's shyness made Yue Yang secretly happy and proud.
"My name …" The hemp-clothed old man put down his teacup and said with a bit of indifference, "Perhaps you've heard of me and even think that I'm a very terrifying person, but I'm actually just an ordinary old man. Most of these rumors are false. My name is An Xi, the An Xi that people say killed a million people! "
"What?" Yue Yang was stunned.
"Ah!" Hornless Dragon Jiang Ying was even more shocked and cried out involuntarily, looking like she was about to be scared out of her wits.
What did the name An Xi represent?
It represented death.
It was rumored that An Xi was a Level Ten Innate Super Innate. He had once single-handedly massacred the entire continent's warriors and killed more than a million people, setting a record that no one in the history of Tong Tian Tower could ever surpass. In the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower, the only one who could truly win was Zhi Zun, who was ranked fifth together with Sky Execution.
If it was only the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower.
In front of him, other than the number one Zhi Zun, there was the number two Ocean Emperor Guan Lan, the number three Undead Emperor Gu and the number four Great Demon King Baruth.
This ranking was different in the Ninth Floor of Tong Tian Tower. Zhi Zun and the Ocean Emperor were still ahead of An Xi, but Gu and Baruth were surpassed by Sky Execution, An Xi and Night Empress, who was ranked even lower. An Xi, Sky Execution and Night Empress did not stay in the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower for too long, so their reputation was not as good as Gu and Baruth's. In terms of real battle power, An Xi, Sky Execution and Night Empress were far above Gu and Baruth. Especially Night Empress, she set Zhi Zun as her goal and quickly caught up. Even Dragon Emperor, Sky Emperor, Ocean Emperor and Emperor of the Underworld felt threatened.
In terms of reputation, An Xi's infamy was unsurpassable.
The record of slaughtering one million warriors, even if all the homicidal maniacs were to add up, they might not be able to reach this number.
There was a saying in Tong Tian Tower: If you offend a Supreme Innate, you will definitely die, there is no turning back. And this person, is An Xi!
Yue Yang would never have thought that the hemp clothed old man was An Xi.
This old man, really slaughtered one million people?
Terrifying!
"I have killed many people, but I am not a homicidal maniac like the legends say, I am just taking revenge." When the hemp clothed old man said this, Yue Yang almost fainted.
Killing one million people for revenge? How much hatred did he have?
The hemp clothed old man did not care about Yue Yang's exaggerated expression, and slowly said: "Just one more person, then the whole revenge will be complete."
A thought flashed in Yue Yang's mind. To be able to make the hemp clothed old man come personally, who could it be? Unless it was him. When Yue Yang thought of this, he immediately realized and exclaimed: "The Ocean Emperor!"
The hemp clothed old man nodded in satisfaction and praised: "That's right, your brain is really good, you figured it out immediately!"
Seeing that Yue Yang had guessed it, Jiang Ying felt a little happy.
Although she could not guess it, seeing that he was smart and performed well, she could not help but feel happy for him.
"You are always inviting us to attack together … Wait, let me guess again … Ocean Emperor, the news of the birth of a treasure in the Fire Island Deep Sea Trench was actually spread by you, right? Why do you want to kill the Ocean Emperor? Let me guess, is it … is it because of the Mother Earth Potion? Are you preparing to spread this news to the Ocean Emperor and wait for an opportunity to kill him? " The more Yue Yang thought, the closer he was to the truth. No wonder the news of the birth of a treasure in the Fire Island was spread, it was actually spread by the hemp clothed old man to cause trouble for the Ocean Emperor.
"Brat, not bad! Although it is not completely correct, it is not far from the truth. "The hemp clothed old man nodded in praise of Yue Yang's intelligence.
"Have some tea!" Jiang Ying stole a glance at Yue Yang and was even happier. She quickly got up to pour tea for the hemp clothed old man.
After pouring another cup for Yue Yang, she did not return to her original position.
She unconsciously sat beside Yue Yang, at the place where Yue Yang indicated for her to sit.
She did this completely unconsciously. Unknowingly, she completely let go of her original reservations and wariness. She sat together with Yue Yang and attentively listened to the conversation between him and the hemp clothed old man. Every time the hemp clothed old man praised Yue Yang, she was exceptionally happy, as if she was being praised.
The hemp clothed old man looked at her.
Just like a grandfather looking at his obedient granddaughter, his eyes were filled with kindness.
He picked up the teacup and muttered to himself, "Actually, this little girl's grandfather and I used to be battle partners and very good friends. The Ocean Emperor was also among our companions. Later on, the Ocean Emperor betrayed our entire group. Our huge group of a few hundred people almost all died. At that time, the most united Iron Fist Mercenary Group in the entire Tong Tian Tower collapsed overnight. The leader died in battle and all the captains also died in battle. There were only four people left, the little girl's grandfather, the Old Hornless Dragon, me, the Ocean Emperor Guan Lan and the last one was Guan Lan's loyal best friend, Tai Hu. The Old Hornless Dragon was seriously injured and passed away. Tai Hu was also seriously injured and went into seclusion. I guess the Ocean Emperor had already killed him, so my only target is the Ocean Emperor Guan Lan. As long as I kill him, my wish will be fulfilled. "
Jiang Ying was stunned. An Xi was once grandfather's comrade?
Why did she never hear him mention it?
The hemp-clothed old man seemed to see through Jiang Ying's thoughts and smiled, "Your grandfather is much older than me. When he was an uncle, I was still a child. At that time, I was not called An Xi but Sashi. Your grandfather usually called me Little Sashi."
When he said that, Jiang Ying suddenly had an impression. In her grandfather's memories, many names appeared frequently, including 'Little Sashi'.
In her grandfather's memories in his later years, he had mentioned it many times.
Of course, there were also the various sorrows of betrayal and team annihilation, which had always been her grandfather's regret.
It was because of that, Jiang Ying knew about the Mother Earth Potion. Otherwise, she would not have invited Yue Yang to come here to search for treasure.
"How can I assassinate the Ocean Emperor?" Yue Yang asked the main point.
Regarding the Mother Earth Potion, Yue Yang had already confirmed that the hemp-clothed old man did not come for it. He only wanted revenge and to kill the Ocean Emperor. Since he had the intention to get rid of the Ocean Emperor, there was no reason for Yue Yang to stand by and do nothing. He would definitely think of a way to get rid of the Ocean Emperor. The problem was, how could he kill one of the Five Emperors of Tong Tian Tower, the Ocean Emperor Guan Lan?
