"Cousin, is it really you? Is it really you? Why did you come out? Was it that thief uncle who saved you? "
Just as he was feeling anxious, he suddenly heard a surprised voice. A Golden Crow that was two times smaller than him flew out from the mountains and landed on the ground. It turned into a lovely girl in a golden dress. Her eyes were filled with surprise and joy as she hurried over. She seemed to be overjoyed but also in disbelief. It was his cousin, Wu Sang 'er.
"Sang 'er, you came at the right time. I hid an immortal coffin in Uncle Gen's cave abode. There are two blood lotus seeds in it. I have to leave as soon as possible. There are many people chasing after me. Don't ask, just listen to me. After I leave, immediately carry this little bastard down and put him in the coffin. Feed him one blood lotus seed and put the other one on his chest. Close the coffin lid …"
The Great Golden Crow said hurriedly and stuffed Fang Xing into Wu Sang 'er's arms.
Seeing Fang Xing's bloody body, Wu Sang 'er was shocked and said, "How did he die so miserably?"
The Great Golden Crow was speechless and said, "He's not dead yet. But if you keep nagging, I'm going to die …"
After saying that, he spread his wings and was about to fly away, but Uncle Gen hooked his claws with his walking stick. He jumped up and down and scolded, "Little bastard, tell me first, how are you going to kill me? If you don't explain clearly, I'll beat you to death today … "
The Golden Crow was afraid that it would pull Uncle Gen down, so it had no choice but to forcefully stop its momentum of soaring into the sky. However, in this short moment of delay, thunder could suddenly be heard. Dark clouds surged from the horizon, but they did not come from the same direction. Dark clouds whizzed in from all directions at the same time, surrounding Mount Fusang. A loud shout came from behind the clouds in the north, "Escaped prisoner of the Black Abyss, where do you think you are going?"
"It's over … Uncle Gen, you've really killed me …"
The Great Golden Crow's heart instantly sank. The pursuers were already here, and it would not be easy to escape.
At this time, the sky was in a semicircle and had already surrounded this side of the cliff. In another direction, there were faint dark clouds rolling in the sky. There must have been people behind to prevent the Golden Crow from escaping. Behind them, the figures of the pursuers had already appeared in the dark clouds. Most of them were powerful demon cultivators wearing black armor with red cloaks on their backs. There were only three or four demon soldiers wearing the standard armor of the Black Abyss Prison or the Demon Court, less than ten percent of the pursuers.
"I was wondering why you were chasing me so closely. It turns out that you guys are so concerned about me!"
Seeing this, the Great Golden Crow was not in a hurry to escape. He shouted angrily and at the same time, looked around carefully, waiting for an opportunity to escape.
Now that the gates of the Black Abyss Prison were open, demons and ghosts were everywhere, and there were too many to catch. The Black Abyss Prison and even the Demon Court were more concerned about the escape and whereabouts of some important demons, so they would not have so much energy to focus on the Golden Crow. However, the Black Wood Ridge was more worried that it would escape, so they immediately sent people to the Fusang Mountain to keep an eye on it. As expected, they found the escaped Great Golden Crow.
"The Black Abyss Prison has changed, and the demons have escaped. The Demon Court has issued a decree, and all the demon lineages have sent people to assist in the capture. We, the Black Wood Ridge, are just following the decree of the Demon Court. Hehe, maybe you are the mastermind of the demons' escape?"
In the black cloud, a white figure came out. It was a woman in silver armor, holding a big saber in her hand, and riding a three-feet-tall black bull. She looked to be in her thirties, graceful and charming. When she saw the Great Golden Crow, there was undisguised hatred in her eyes. Although her voice was not loud, her words were not polite. She wanted to label the Great Golden Crow as soon as they met.
However, her casual words shocked the Great Golden Crow. Although he was not the mastermind, the mastermind was right beside him!
"Bitch, why are you saying such nice things? Back then, Master Jin only encountered a little trouble, but you made it an ironclad case and locked me up in the Blackpool Prison. Weren't you the ones who instructed me to do so? Damn, I know it's because I killed your man, but it's also because he killed my father. It's only right that I seek revenge on him! "
The Great Golden Crow was not easy to get along with, so he simply cursed.
"How dare you mention him? If you have the ability to kill him, then come and have a taste of my big saber! "
Hearing this, the woman in white armor suddenly frowned. She shouted and was about to rush toward the Great Golden Crow with her big saber.
"Lady Jiu Mu, please wait. Let me do it for you!"
Behind the woman in white armor, several Beastkin cultivators in black armor rushed out at the same time. Each of them cast a demonic spell to capture the Beastkin cultivators. However, they did not dare to let the woman in white armor do it herself. They all knew that she had a feud with the Great Golden Crow for killing her husband. They were afraid that she would kill the Great Golden Crow when no one was paying attention. After all, the Blackwood Ridge had an agreement with the Nine-headed Insect Clan, and the Great Golden Crow had to be kept alive.
"How dare you, fugitive! Surrender!"
In an instant, three Beastkin cultivators in the Late-stage of Gold Core Realm attacked the Great Golden Crow.
The Great Golden Crow's eyes turned cold. He secretly looked to their left, ready to escape from there.
His only hope now was that after he escaped, he would attract the attention of these people and not let them see Fang Xing.
However, at this moment, a roar suddenly came from Fusang Mountain. A scorching golden cloud of fire swept over quickly, dyeing the night sky red. Among the fire clouds, a huge Golden Crow flew over with monstrous power. Although it was still far away, it had already opened its mouth and spat out a red flame that was dozens of feet long. It was like a fire whip, forcing the three black-robed elders to retreat in an instant.
"Who dares to break into my Fusang Mountain to capture people?"
In the blink of an eye, the person had already arrived in front of the Great Golden Crow. He roared angrily and flew in the void, confronting the Beastkin of the Blackwood Ridge.
"Uncle …"
The Great Golden Crow was slightly stunned. He recognized that it was his uncle, Wu Gu Mu.
"I'll block here. You quickly go to the back of the mountain and break out of the encirclement under the protection of the three elders. Don't come back before Yuanying!"
Wu Gu Mu quickly transmitted a divine thought to the Great Golden Crow. He did not look at him, but only stared angrily at the Beastkin of the Blackwood Ridge.
When the Great Golden Crow heard this, he was slightly startled and hesitated.
"Wu Gu Mu, this guy is a fugitive from the Blackwater Prison. We have the decree of the Demon Court here. Do you want to openly defy it?"
Seeing this, the Beastkin of the Blackwood Ridge were already furious. The Demon Soldiers gathered and were about to attack.
"So what if he's a fugitive from the Blackwater Prison? So what if it's the decree of the Demon Court? I have the Demon Immortal Token here. Can't I exchange it for my nephew's life? "
Wu Gu Mu did not reply. With a spread of his large wings, there was already a purple-gold token with a simple shape flying into the air, but it shone brightly in the air. Faintly, there seemed to be some kind of simple and unadorned celestial realm transmitted out, making people want to worship it.
"The Demon Immortal Token … The Demon Immortal Token of the Golden Crow Clan …"
When the Beastkin of the Blackwood Ridge saw this, their eyes all trembled. They seemed to be intimidated by this token. For a moment, no one dared to answer.
The Demon Immortal Token was passed down by the Demon Immortal Ancestor of the Golden Crow Clan. It itself had divinity, and had the value of making a request to the Demon Court. Therefore, according to reason, Wu Gu Mu really did have the power to protect his nephew. More importantly, facing the Demon Immortal Token, even the wild and ruthless Beastkin didn't dare to attack Mount Fusang at this time, for fear of incurring the wrath of the Beastkin Clan.
"The Demon Immortal Token naturally has the power to help your nephew escape punishment, but it can't stay just because you say so. The Demon Court has its own laws. All fugitives need to be captured and brought back to the Blackwater Prison to be suppressed again. If you want to help it escape punishment, you have to wait until the Demon Court has finished dealing with this riot. Then come and discuss with the ten Elders. So, now let me bring him back, to avoid further offense!"
Just as the Beastkin of the Blackwood Ridge were hesitating, suddenly a clear voice came from afar. In the distant night sky, a faint green light shone. An old man in a green robe, with a square face and the bearing of an Immortal Realm expert, with an ebony hairpin on his head. His green robe was spotless, and with a smile on his face, he sat on the back of a white bull and slowly walked over.
"This is … Tai Shi Clan's Yuanying Ancestor?"
The Beastkin of the Blackwood Ridge were shocked at first, then overjoyed. They all knelt down and called him "Ancestor".
Especially the woman in white armor, she directly knelt down and said, "Greetings to Second Ancestor". She was originally a collateral descendant of the Tai Shi Clan, and was also a pure-blooded human. Later, because of the arrangement of the Tai Shi Clan, she married Daoist Jiu Mu of the Blackwood Ridge, and that Daoist Jiu Mu was the Demon Cultivator who was killed by the Great Golden Crow. In this way, the old man on the white bull was her elder.
And the Golden Crow Clan Leader of Fu Sang Mountain, Wu Gu Mu's expression changed greatly, and even the hand holding the Demon Immortal Token trembled.
As for the Great Golden Crow, he was so shocked that his eyeballs almost fell out. He thought to himself, "The little bandit said that the person who schemed against me was far more powerful than I imagined. Not only was it related to the Nine-headed Insect Clan, but even the Tai Shi Clan was involved … Now it seems that he was right. For a small shrimp like me, even the Yuanying Ancestor of the Tai Shi Clan came. He hasn't shown up for hundreds of years …"
