In his last sight, Yan Li only saw the stone door close with a click. The enraged Yan Sheng slammed his palm on the stone door, causing an even stronger tremor.
"..."
"How much longer do I have to lie down like this?"
After an unknown amount of time, when there was no more movement, Yan Li finally spoke. The reason why he did not speak for so long was not because he was worried that the falling rocks would cover his voice, but because he was so shocked that he could not speak.
In that split second, the old man, Gu Haiyuan, who was an ordinary person that he could kill with one finger, actually did two things. The first was to activate the talisman on the stone door, causing the stone door to reactivate and block Yan Sheng. The second was to activate the talisman on the cylindrical stone platform that originally stored the treasure, and in an instant, changed its shape from a sphere to an open umbrella.
The two of them curled up under the umbrella, and coincidentally avoided the tragic fate of being smashed into meat paste by the falling rocks.
"Don't speak first, let me catch my breath first." Gu Haiyuan snorted, and began to act arrogantly again.
Borrowing a tiny bit of light, Yan Li caught a glimpse of his hands. They were still trembling violently. Moreover, because of the sudden increase in blood flow, the veins on his hands bulged. It looked as if there were many worms lying on his hands, constantly gnawing away at his vitality.
It seemed that the miraculous operation had brought him a huge burden.
Perhaps sensing Yan Li's gaze, Gu Haiyuan laughed self-deprecatingly, "This is the price a mortal has to pay for trying to invade the divine realm …"
Yan Li said, "It will reduce your lifespan?"
Gu Haiyuan shook his head, then nodded, "Once a cultivator enters the path of martial arts cultivation, his lifespan can be extended to 120 years, but it is already not bad for an ordinary person to live until 70 years old. If there are any disasters or illnesses, their lifespan will be reduced even more rapidly. The Heavenly Dao is unfair. "
However, he changed the topic and said with slight mockery, "But to a person like me who should have died long ago, there is nothing to complain about. In fact, it is already the Heavenly Dao that I am able to live until now."
As she spoke, she raised her head and glanced at it. Her expression changed slightly, and she screamed, "Little bastard, what are you waiting for? Use your sword and dig a path out. This thing can't hold on any longer!"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Yan Li pulled out the Leaving Cliff to clear the path.
Gu Haiyuan scolded, "Damn you, where's your cleverness in scheming against us? At this critical moment, you still need an old man like me to remind you about such a simple matter!"
As the cave had already been dug to the edge, Yan Sheng's palm strike created a passageway.
Li Ya dealt with the rubble as easily as chopping vegetables. Very quickly, he dug out a path.
Crawling out of the underground cave, Yan Li stood up, patted the dust off his body, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Little b * tch, we should be honest when doing business, right?" Gu Haiyuan crawled out and stared at Yan Li.
Yan Li lazily glanced at him and said, "What's wrong?"
Gu Haiyuan said, "That Elemental Crystal is a priceless treasure. It's enough for you to buy ten or twenty Qiankun Bags. Besides, I saved your life, so it's not too much to return what you have on you to me, right?"
"Scram as far as you can." Yan Li sneered, "I even spared your life, so isn't that enough? From now on, we'll go our separate ways. "
"Little bastard b * tch! Loafer robber! " Gu Haiyuan gritted his teeth and said, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have saved you. I would have let you be buried down there and spend the rest of your inhumane life with the bugs and ants!"
Just as Yan Li was about to speak, he suddenly felt a strong gust of wind behind him. His heart skipped a beat, and without looking back, he broke into a run.
Gu Haiyuan subconsciously looked back and saw Yan Sheng rushing down the mountain with a murderous look on his face. His soul immediately left his body, and he desperately chased after Yan Li. "Hey, Master Yan, I was just joking. Don't leave me behind … I'm at odds with that dark-faced fellow …"
Yan Li rolled his eyes, turned back, grabbed him, and ran like the wind.
…
The cave had collapsed. Standing in front of the cave door, Ji Changzhi's face almost sank to the bottom. "Gu Caiwei, look what you've done!"
The girl giggled and said, "I'm clearly standing here talking to you. Do you think I have a clone?"
Ji Changzhi's fat face was almost distorted from anger. "This prince needs an explanation for this matter. If you don't give me one, I'll report it to the Sage Emperor. Lotus Throne, prepare to bear the wrath of the sacred court!"
The girl's white clothes instantly turned scarlet, as if she was wearing a burning flame. Her expression carried a hint of mockery. "Before that, you'll have to bear my wrath first!"
The pink energy was instantly dyed red, and in the air, it turned into unbloomed spider lilies that looked like they were made of flowing flames.
The Red Spider Lilies were like beautiful fireworks blooming in the sky.
The splendor of a moment would last forever.
The surroundings were silent, and the air was motionless.
Cold sweat drenched Ji Changzhi's fat body. He gritted his teeth and forcefully circulated his technique, suppressing all the uneasiness. At the same time, his body gradually became blurry, and his sense of existence was infinitely weakened.
He was overjoyed, and felt that he was gradually escaping from the other party's Qi activity.
The girl giggled and gently clenched her hand. Remembrance Slave suddenly appeared, and at this moment, it was like a fiery red maple leaf.
Swoosh!
With a slight sound of breaking through the air, the umbrella blade had already been unsheathed, and a cold light slanted, as if it had broken some kind of barrier. Ji Changzhi grunted, and his body became solid again.
His face was full of fear. "You can't kill me!"
"The spider lilies bloom, and the still waters run deep." The girl seemed to be singing and singing as she stood with the umbrella, her smile like a flower.
At this moment, the spider lilies completely bloomed, and the air flowed again.
Ji Changzhi roared angrily.
The next moment, a large hole appeared in his chest, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. With a look of disbelief, he fell to the ground.
The strange phenomenon slowly dissipated.
Everything had returned to normal.
"Listen, fat pig, I have nothing to do with that person," the girl said to the corpse.
…
Outside the Dragon Emperor Residence.
Zhuge Xiaoshan asked curiously, "Brother Xie, the Cloud Water Pavilion is divided into the Flower Pavilion and the Sword Forest, but the Flower Pavilion is in charge of the tailoring and embroidery. What is the Sword Forest in charge of?"
Xie Yunfeng crossed his arms and snorted, "You don't know this, but the Sword Forest is actually the main body, in charge of all external affairs. The Flower Pavilion is just doing the hard work, and the money they earn is all in my pocket."
Zhuge Xiaoshan laughed, "Is that so? But Brother Xie, why did I hear that it was because the Flower Pavilion's Pavilion Master limited your daily expenses, and that's why you 'ran away from home'."
"What?" Xie Yunfeng said angrily, "Which bastard spread this rumor? How dare that bitch, Yun Yizhu, restrict my spending? Be careful, or I'll kick her out! "
At this moment, he saw the constable coming out, and quickly said, "They're here, they're here. Let's hear what's going on first. That's right, this isn't over yet. I'll get to the bottom of this, hmph! "
The constable hurried over, and seeing two more people, he frowned, "What are you guys doing?"
"Can't you see that we're standing together? We're definitely in cahoots. Hurry up and tell me, what's your urgent report?" Xie Yunfeng said impatiently.
The constable glanced at him, and coldly said, "According to reliable information, two Church of Heaven disciples have snuck into River Flower City."
"Church of Heaven disciples!" Zhuge Xiaoshan's expression changed drastically.
Xie Yunfeng's body straightened, and there was no longer any trace of playfulness on his face, "Which two?"
"Are you afraid now?" The constable laughed coldly, "It's the Lotus of Hundred Transformations, the Vulture of Earth Fission."
Zhuge Xiaoshan sucked in a breath of cold air. "W-what are they doing in Huajiang City?"
"How would I know?" The constable said coldly, "Let me tell you, the Manor Head has already mobilized the Manor Army, and the entire city is under martial law. You guys should hurry and take refuge, or else you'll be treated as suspicious and arrested. I still have to go to the Wang Manor to inform them, I don't have time to argue with you."
"Wait." Xie Yunfeng stopped him.
"What?" The constable said impatiently.
Xie Yunfeng smiled slightly, "I'm going to the Wang Manor to attend a friend's appointment. I'll go with you."
"So troublesome." The constable curled his lips, but didn't refuse.
Xie Yunfeng cupped his fists towards Yan Chaoyang and Zhuge Xiaoshan, "Brother Yan, Brother Zhuge, the next time we meet, remember to treat me to a drink. If it's your wedding wine, that would be even better."
After saying that, he blinked his eyes, and chased after the constable.
"Brother Xie, what nonsense are you talking about!" Zhuge Xiaoshan was so angry that he stomped his feet.
Yan Chaoyang stared at Zhuge Xiaoshan.
Zhuge Xiaoshan seemed to know what he wanted to ask, and said considerately, "It's a long explanation, and I can't explain it clearly in one or two sentences. Let me put it simply, as long as the Church of Heaven disciples appear, blood will flow like a river. Countless cities and towns have already been destroyed, and two prefectures were destroyed by the Vulture of Earth Fission. Millions of people died because of this. As for the Lotus of Everchanging Mystic Light, he usually appears beside the Vulture. As long as the two of them appear together, they will bring great disasters to the people. "
He shook his head, and said with a bitter smile, "Don't ask me why they have such a strange name. No one knows where they come from, and what they are doing. We can only combine the information we know into a name, which can be regarded as a symbol. The Fission of Earth means that once they make a move, the earth will crack for no reason, and the deeper the crack, the more terrifying their strength will be. "
He sighed, and said, "You must want to know why no one will encircle and annihilate such vicious people, right? In fact, the Heavenly Policy Pavilion and the Dragon Emperor Mansion have planned to encircle and annihilate them more than once, but they almost never succeeded. It's because they killed one Church of Heaven disciple, but ten Enlightenment Realm experts were buried forever in the sea of stars … "
At this point, he calmed down a bit, and said with deep wariness, "And that Church of Heaven disciple that was killed appeared again after a period of time, as if his death was a lie."
Hearing this, Yan Chaoyang's expression finally changed.
Zhuge Xiaoshan said softly, "Senior brother, we can't afford to offend the Church of Heaven disciples. Just in case, let's leave this place first."
Yan Chaoyang looked into the distance, "I'm worried about Ah Li."
Zhuge Xiaoshan said, "He's in the Prince's Mansion, do you want to go?"
Yan Chaoyang nodded.
"Then let's split up," Zhuge Xiaoshan nodded, "I'll inform Manager Wen, we'll meet at the city gate."
Yan Chaoyang grabbed his hand, "Be careful."
