Ye Zichen stood in the corner, holding a bow. There was a pitch-black bolt on it.
For some reason, even at Yuchi Kong's level, he felt a chill run down his spine. It was as if the crossbow before him could take his life in the blink of an eye!
This was a sense of danger. The higher one's cultivation and the longer they fought, the more accurate their sense of danger would be.
That was impossible!
Ye Zichen was just a ruler ant. Even the slightest bit of pressure from an imperial emperor was enough to suffocate him.
By the time Yuchi Kong and the others entered the room, Ye Zichen was like a fish on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered!
How could he feel such a sense of danger from him?
Yuchi Kong looked at the crossbow and instantly understood. This sense of danger wasn't from the ruler Ye Zichen, but from the crossbow in front of him.
The crossbow looked ordinary and unremarkable, no different from the ballistae or siege ballistae.
This kind of crossbow was only used to defend or attack cities. It might pose some threat to supremes, but it was much less to diviners. Rulers could even ignore it, let alone emperors like them.
"Hey, it feels like the tables have turned."
Ye Zichen squinted as he leaned against the crossbow's rack. He looked playfully at Yuchi Kong and Huangfu Youming, two veteran emperors of the god race.
"Be good and squat in the corner. Otherwise, your ten thousand years of cultivation will be wasted here."
"Geezer Yuchi, there's something strange about this crossbow." The irascible Huangfu Youming didn't say anything. It was obvious that he, too, sensed the threat the crossbow posed.
"Mm." Yuchi Kong nodded darkly and looked into Ye Zichen's eyes.
"What are you looking at me for? I told you to squat in the corner." Ye Zichen pointed at the opposite corner. "It seems Alliance Head Ye likes to joke around. I wonder where you got your confidence to think the tables have turned just because of this crossbow?" Yuchi Kong laughed. "Crossbows are limited to supremes at most. We don't even need to fear diviners. Does Alliance Head Ye really think this crossbow can hurt us?
Two people? "
Although the crossbow made Yuchi Kong feel like his life was in danger, neither he nor Huangfu Youming noticed anything strange about it. For better or for worse, they were Imperial Lords who'd made a name for themselves a long time ago. There was no way Ye Zichen could scare them into a corner with just a few words.
Even if there was a problem with the crossbow, they had to at least give it a try! "It's Family Head Yuchi who likes to joke, right?" Ye Zichen twitched his mouth and patted the crossbow. "You dare to say that you're not afraid? With your sense of danger, I don't believe that you can't sense it! If you really can't sense it, then I can only say that the two of you are too slow. Plus, just now.
If I didn't hear wrongly, did you say that it's a crossbow? "
Yuchi Kong was noncommittal. This kind of shape was undoubtedly a ballista.
There was actually a divine weapon that was similar to the ballista, and it was called the God Destroyer!
Yuchi Kong had thought in this direction when he first saw this crossbow, but he soon felt that it was unrealistic and discarded this thought.
"Does Family Head Huangfu think so as well?" Ye Zichen smiled.
Huangfu Youming snorted coldly. He naturally didn't think this was an ordinary ballista. Although he was rebellious, he was extremely cautious. Just looking at this crossbow made him tremble in fear. How could it possibly be a low-level item like a ballista? If it weren't for the fact that he was afraid of the crossbow, given his earlier performance, he wouldn't have just snorted.
"Seriously.
You've lived for so long, yet you call it a ballista! "
Ye Zichen's eyes flashed with mockery, then his gaze turned cold. "Then I can only say that your eyes are bad. What's facing you right now is the God-Destroying Crossbow that terrifies the gods and demons. Do you know fear now?"
"What a joke!"
Little did he know, the moment Ye Zichen said that, it wasn't just Yuchi Kong; even the cautious Huangfu Youming sneered. "Who doesn't know that the God-Destroying Crossbow fell into the Thousand Faces Yao Lord's hands ten thousand years ago? The Yao Lord was an outstanding talent of the three races. Before the God-Destroying Crossbow, none of the gods, yao, and demons dared claim that they could take advantage of him. After obtaining the God-Destroying Crossbow, even Yao Emperor Donghuang had to show some respect. You say this is a God-Destroying Crossbow?
Could it be that you took the crossbow from the Yao Lord? "
The Thousand Faces Yao Lord!
This was the first time Ye Zichen had heard of this name, but from Yuchi Kong's words, he could tell that the Yao Lord was no simple character.
Yao Emperor Donghuang was the head of the Three Sovereigns, yet even he had to show some respect. One could imagine how strong the Thousand Faces Yao Lord was.
But why had he never heard of such an expert before?
Just as Ye Zichen was feeling puzzled, Yuchi Kong helped him dispel his doubts.
"Alliance Head Ye, calling it the God-Destroying Crossbow is your downfall. If you said it was some other divine artifact, even if you made up a name, Huangfu and I might have been more cautious. But you just had to say it was the God-Destroying Crossbow ….. "
"The Thousand Faces Yao Lord hasn't appeared in ten thousand years. None of us emperors know where he went. Could it be that you found a Yao Lord that we couldn't find and stole his divine artifact? Or perhaps you want to say that the Thousand Faces Yao Lord gave it to you? "
"What's the point of wasting your breath on him!" Huangfu Youming recovered his previous domineering attitude. "If you don't want to die, then hurry up and tell me how to break it. My patience is limited. If you wait too long, then even if you beg me, I'll have no choice but to make you bring this secret to the underworld!"
"I don't like being threatened."
Suddenly, Ye Zichen's expression darkened. The God-Destroying Crossbow transformed into a hand-held crossbow and landed in his hands. He reached out with lightning speed and pressed the crossbow firmly against the top of Huangfu Youming's head.
"I can't be bothered to argue with you about whether or not this is the God-Destroying Crossbow. How about we give it a try?"
… …
… …
The fragrance of flowers, the chirping of birds, the chirping of cicadas and the leaping of fish
It was a paradise-like place. Not a single person could be seen on the streets, but the sky was filled with countless people in a hurry.
If you sensed their auras, you'd find that none of them were weaker than rulers.
Or rather, all of them were emperors!
From these people's eyes, it could be seen that they were almost equally anxious. Their lips were tightly pursed, and their fists were tightly clenched under their sleeves.
There was only one reason why they were in such a hurry ….
Their family's young miss had disappeared!
A tall pagoda stood in the center of this paradise-like place. It towered into the clouds, so high that it was impossible to see the end of it from the ground. Those Emperors who could fly were also using this tower as the center. Their divine senses crisscrossed and enveloped the entire space they were in.
"Gu Xuande, how exactly did you see Luo Lin!?"
At the top floor of the pagoda was a palace that couldn't even be described as magnificent.
There were several chairs within the palace, all of which seemed to be made entirely of crystal. However, judging from how translucent they were, they seemed to be even brighter than crystal itself.
Seated on one of the chairs was a peerless beauty with a voluptuous figure.
At this moment, her face was filled with anger and anxiety. Her beautiful eyes stared at the middle-aged man in front of her, who was holding a cup of hot tea.
From the man's appearance, it was obvious that he'd been in a high position for a long time. His brows radiated authority even without being angry.
However, in front of this woman, his eyes were filled with affection.
"Don't be so angry. Although you're still beautiful when you're angry, the wrinkles between your brows make my heart ache. You've been out for so long, and you've only just returned to the clan. You must be exhausted. This is the milk tea that I personally made for you while you were away. Quick, try it! "
"You're the only one who knows how to talk!"
Although the anger between the woman's brows had yet to dissipate, it had lessened a little.
She took a sip of the milk tea that the man passed to her. Satisfaction could be seen on her face, but it only lasted for a moment.
After that, she placed the cup of milk tea on the crystal table.
"I've only been out for a short while, and Luo Lin's already gone missing. I asked you when Luo Lin disappeared, and you're telling me that you don't know either! "
"I just don't know." The middle-aged man shrugged. "Luo Lin has been running around since she was young. In the past, she used to play hide-and-seek with us. When she disappeared, I thought she'd be the same as before. Who knew that she'd run out directly this time?"
"Who asked you not to look after her!"
"Luo Lin is already an adult. I'm her father, not her servant. How could I follow behind her every day. And it's not like you don't know our daughter. She doesn't like us always following her. "
"Anyway, it's all your fault!" The beautiful woman's eyes suddenly turned misty. "Luo Lin has never left the clan since she was young, and doesn't know how sinister the people outside are. This time, she went to the Transcendence Mausoleum. None of the people who go there are good people. Our family's Luo Lin is just a little sheep in those people's eyes. If something happens … …
No, I'll go there right now and destroy that mausoleum, and bring it back for Luo Lin! " "Aiyo, my wife, don't be like a child. You're already a mother." The middle-aged man grabbed the beautiful woman and said with a frown, "Our Gu family has always been disliked by the rules. You still want to go out and destroy the Transcendence Mausoleum. The people outside are about to attack.
Let me have two days of peace! "
"Aren't you afraid that Luo Lin will be in danger?"
"I'm not afraid, but you know that Luo Lin is our old man's favorite. As soon as he found out that Luo Lin had left, he took a look for her. There won't be any accidents! Little Rong, do you still remember … … "
"That Lord of Seven Star? I remember!"
"Luo Lin is with her son. Her son is the Lord of the Emperor Star. You understand, right? Her luck is incredible. Our daughter won't be at a disadvantage if she's with her!"
"Fine then!"
No one could have imagined that the woman, who had been so worried about her daughter's life just moments ago, would suddenly lose all traces of her worry.
She happily sat back down in her chair, took a sip of milk tea, and smiled.
