Today was the third night watch!
— — —
Dongbo Xue Ying hurriedly said, "No rush, no rush. Big Brother, I've already decided on how to deal with Venomous Ying. The reason why I'm not in a rush is because the time isn't ripe yet. Thousands of years have passed, so I'm still patient for a few months. "
Seeing this, the White Sand City Lord stroked his beard and chuckled, "Since you've already planned it out, that's good. If you need me to act, just call me. Others might be afraid of offending that Ying Gu Liang, but I'm not."
"He's just a bodyguard. If he behaves obediently, then so be it. But if he dares to stir up trouble, I'll thicken my skin and complain to Master," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"Ruthless." The White Sand City Lord immediately praised.
There were only two reasons why Dongbo Xue Ying was feared by the major powers. The first was that he had immense potential, and the second was that he was His Majesty's personal disciple! Given how highly God Emperor regarded his personal disciple, if Dongbo Xue Ying really did complain, then it would be truly terrifying.
Of course …
Xue Ying only said it verbally. If he truly could not handle it himself, and was helpless, he would only do so.
"Right, Dongbo." The White Sand City Lord chuckled, "There's something I need to tell you first."
"Big Brother, please speak," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"You should know. Ai, I was foolish back then and was expelled from Master's tutelage." The White Sand City Lord said, "I've been thinking about when I'll be able to return to Master's tutelage."
"This …" Dongbo Xue Ying hesitated.
Back then, his Big Brother, the White Sand City Lord, had secretly eaten Master's precious World Sandheart Fruit. In a fit of rage, Master had expelled him. It was too difficult to redeem such a thing.
"I'm not asking for your help right now, Dong Bo. You've just become a disciple of my teacher not too long ago, so I'm afraid it's useless for you to say such words." The White Sand City Lord continued, "I know that my teacher was quite angry at that time. It will be very difficult for me to return to Master's tutelage. However, I've lived for so long, and I estimate that more than half of my lifespan has passed. I only have one thing on my mind, and that is to return to Master's tutelage before my True Deity Heart collapses. "
"Big Brother …" Dongbo Xue Ying hurriedly said, "Don't worry. When I'm stronger, I'll find a good time to talk to Master about this."
The White Sand City Lord grinned and said happily, "Good, it's good to hear that."
Two streaks of light suddenly flew over from afar.
It was Ge Bai and an unfamiliar dark-skinned man. The two of them had landed.
"Hurry up and greet His Highness," Ge Bai immediately said.
"Bai Li Shang greets Your Highness." The dark-skinned man bowed respectfully.
Dongbo Xue Ying took a look and noticed that Bai Li Shang had an extraordinary aura. He was a Universe God in the Second Heaven. It seemed like they were here to seek refuge with him. Ever since the open recruitment, there were three stage two World Deities who sought refuge with him, including this one.
"Brother Bai Li, where did you come from?" Dongbo Xue Ying asked.
The dark-skinned man immediately said, "Reporting to Your Highness. I've been roaming the Deity World, adventuring and tempering myself. However, I've been cultivating for over two billion years … and it's been hard for me to advance any further. I've grown tired of roaming the world for so long, and I've been looking for a safe place to meditate. That's why I've come to seek refuge with Your Highness. "
Dongbo Xue Ying nodded lightly. "Mn. Senior Brother Ge Bai, bring Brother Bai Li Shang to a place to rest."
Very soon, Ge Bai and the dark-skinned man turned into two shadows and disappeared into the distance.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I came to see you, and I've only met a stage two World Deity seeking refuge with you?" The White Sand City Lord sighed. "Tell me, how many stage two World Deities have you recruited so far?"
"Not many, just three," Dongbo Xue Ying said.
"That's still not many. How long have you been recruiting?" The White Sand City Lord sighed. "If you continue recruiting like this, it would be normal for you to exceed ten after a while! I've lived for hundreds of millions of years, but I only have eight stage two World Deities under my command. Moreover, the majority of them have slowly cultivated and advanced from the weak subordinates under me. Someone with true strength like them still wants to seek refuge with me? Very few! They only came early because they saw that you're His Majesty's personal disciple and have an extraordinary future ahead of you. Sigh, I'm really envious. "
Dongbo Xue Ying laughed.
… …
"Brother Bai Li, if there's anything you need, feel free to look for me." Ge Bai laughed. "You can stay in this cave for now. As for the commander of my personal guard … there's no need to rush. His Highness will definitely choose someone when the time comes. With your strength, even if you're not a commander, you'll at least be a vice commander. "
"Many thanks, Brother Ge Bai." Bai Li Shang laughed.
Ge Bai nodded. "Then I won't disturb you any further. You can rest for now, and you can also take a stroll around. I've already instructed the maids to inform you where you can and can't go in this cave. "
With that, Ge Bai left.
Bai Li Shang turned around. After all, this was not a cave for guests, and he was also a stage two World Deity. This cave covered an area of several thousand kilometers. After all, when World Deities cultivated, the space was too small for them to practice.
"If there's nothing important, don't disturb me," Bai Li Shang ordered. He then quickly entered a quiet room at the back of his hall.
Within the quiet room.
Bai Li Shang surveyed his surroundings. With a wave of his hand, black World Deity energy immediately flew out in all directions, quickly covering the entire quiet room and forming a complicated array that isolated all probing. He even took out a pendant from his storage ring and temporarily wore it in front of his chest. This pendant emitted ripples that permeated the surroundings, making it even harder to probe.
Assassins and those with sufficiently high statuses would usually have treasures that could distort spacetime and isolate probing.
"Hu."
Bai Li Shang heaved a sigh of relief. His eyes were filled with unconcealable excitement. With a flip of his hand, an ordinary wooden box appeared.
He solemnly placed it in front of him before slowly opening it.
Inside the wooden box was a black sphere with many uneven patterns on it.
"I got it!" Bai Li Shang's eyes were filled with excitement. "Monarch Cang Yong spared no expense in order to obtain this treasure, sending us into the ruins one by one. Hmph, hmph, hmph. But in the end, this treasure ended up in my hands."
Bai Li Shang stretched out his hand and caressed the black sphere, pouring his World Deity energy into it.
Weng!
The black sphere slowly lit up, and the uneven patterns on its surface began to emit light that illuminated the surrounding space. It was an extremely complicated and unfathomable diagram. Bai Li Shang looked at the diagram that had appeared in the air above the quiet room, completely intoxicated by it. After obtaining this treasure, he had seen it a few times while fleeing. Although he had only seen it briefly, it had greatly affected his comprehension of the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
That ruin is so vast that even stage four World Deities can lose their lives at any time. For Monarch Cang Yong to be so crazy about it, this treasure must be extraordinary. Bai Li Shang carefully pondered. He was originally a cannon fodder that Monarch Cang Yong had forcefully captured. The monarch had also laid down an inescapable net around the ruins, so logically speaking, no one should have been able to escape.
However, after obtaining the black sphere, the ruins collapsed, and the arrays laid down by Monarch Cang Yong were directly destroyed. Bai Li Shang could not even fend for himself. At that time, spacetime was in chaos, causing many World Deity cannon fodder to flee in all directions.
As for Bai Li Shang, he was the luckiest one to obtain the treasure.
I fled without making a sound, even isolating myself from detection … from the periphery, through the Temporal Island's territory, all the way to the Bloodshed God Palace's territory. I'll secretly join Dong Bo Xue Ying. " The corner of Bai Li Shang's mouth curled upwards. Dongbo Xue Ying was also able to protect me. Furthermore, Monarch Cang Yong would most likely not be able to find me.
Bai Li Shang then continued to carefully study the black sphere, searching for the secrets of this treasure.
