"Senior Martial Brother Zhong, this way please."
'Shui Qingyan' smiled as she welcomed Zhong Yue into her cave dwelling. She did not show any sign of enmity, she smiled and said, "Senior Martial Brother Zhong is indeed a man of his word, coming as promised. The moonlight is so beautiful tonight, the moon and the beauty are accompanying you, Senior Martial Brother Zhong, have you lost your mind? "
Zhong Yue followed her into the cave dwelling, he looked up and saw the moon hanging high in the sky, the silhouette of the mountains could be vaguely seen on the moon.
Although 'Shui Qingyan's' cave dwelling was called a cave dwelling, it was more like a palace to the ordinary humans. The cave dwelling was not really a cave, but a mansion. Living in caves was something that humans did in the early years, but after the You Chao Clan and the Da Ting Clan of the Fuxi Era, the other races rarely lived in caves, instead, they lived in bright and spacious houses.
There were many lanterns hanging in her cave dwelling, and there were a few luminous pearls embedded on the walls. There were also totem pillars of various colors that shone brightly under the moonlight. It was truly a lady's residence, it was enchanting even in the night, it had its own unique charm.
"What a beautiful moonlight!"
Zhong Yue praised, he said leisurely, "There is a bright moon, but not necessarily a beauty. As for losing my mind, that is even more ridiculous."
'Shui Qingyan' walked side by side with him, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, she smiled and said, "Senior martial brother, you've obtained Junior Martial Sister Xiao Chuqing's spirit, being shone by the moonlight will surely be beneficial to your cultivation base."
"I don't understand what junior martial sister is talking about."
Zhong Yue laughed and said, "To be honest, talking to junior martial sister, the Tian Myriad Mother from ten thousand years ago, and addressing you as junior martial sister, makes me feel uneasy."
Although he said so, he did not feel the slightest bit of uneasiness.
The two's words were filled with hidden meanings, Zhong Yue did not admit that he killed Xiao Chuqing because he was worried that this lady might have used some kind of mystical spell to record his voice, or that there might be some experts hiding around. If he admitted it, he would be caught red-handed and unable to defend himself.
'Shui Qingyan' giggled and said, "Senior Martial Brother Zhong is very guarded, please, have a seat."
They walked across the winding pontoon bridge and arrived at the pavilion in the middle of the pond. 'Shui Qingyan's' fingers flickered with a flame, boiling a pot of tea. She stood up and poured the tea for Zhong Yue, she said, "There are no outsiders here, whatever you say here will not be heard by anyone else."
She smiled and said, "I was also shocked when I heard the news of Junior Martial Sister Xiao's death, I immediately went to look for the celestial messenger. He heaved a breath and said, "Xiao Chuqing is dead."
Zhong Yue's expression changed slightly. Xiao Chuqing's death had caused a huge uproar in the celestial race, but the celestial messenger hiding in the Swords Gate praised her death. This meant that the celestial race did not share the same interests. Xiao Chuqing's arrival had threatened the celestial messenger's position, which was why the celestial messenger was so eager to see Zhong Yue kill Xiao Chuqing.
Furthermore, 'Shui Qingyan' also revealed an important secret, there was a celestial messenger within Swords Gate!
She must have thought that I know a lot of secrets, that's why she told me about the celestial messenger. It seems like the Xiao Mang Celestial Race has infiltrated our Swords Gate. "
Zhong Yue thought in his heart, Who could this person be …
'Shui Qingyan' saw his expression and her heart thumped, she knew that she had unintentionally revealed something that Zhong Yue didn't know, This brat, he doesn't know as much as I thought, I've miscalculated. But he can't get any more information out of me!
Zhong Yue smiled and said, "Junior martial sister, you didn't invite me here just for the dead Xiao Chuqing, did you? What else does this celestial messenger want to say? "
'Shui Qingyan' covered her mouth and said, "His request is simple, I am here to participate in the battle with the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, and you are to stand aside and watch. Also, Senior Martial Brother Zhong should be more obedient from now on, the bird that stands out will die quickly, and the person that stands out will also die quickly. Or else, if the news of you killing Xiao Chuqing is leaked out, you will be dead for sure in the Xiao Mang Celestial Race. Don't forget, you are the one that has been to the moon. "
She looked at Zhong Yue meaningfully and purposely pointed out the last sentence.
'The one that has been to the moon', just this point alone was enough for the Xiao Mang Celestial Race to kill him and wipe him off the face of the earth!
Because having been to the moon and discovering the secret of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race was too important!
The disappearance of the moon spirit and the replacement of it was the spirit of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race's grand ancestor. If this matter were to be spread out, the Xiao Mang Celestial Race's grand ancestor's spirit would be in vain!
For a very long time, all the races that worshipped the moon worshipped the moon, and the one that grew stronger was the spirit of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race's grand ancestor. If this matter were to be spread out, no one would continue worshipping the moon and attaining the moon spirit.
Hence, the Xiao Mang Celestial Race would definitely not allow this matter to be spread out!
"I see."
Zhong Yue said straightforwardly, "I don't agree."
'Shui Qingyan' humphed coldly, rays of killing intent flashed in her eyes, "Senior Martial Brother Zhong, are you planning to fight to the death? Even if you spread the news that I'm Tian Myriad Mother, how many people would believe you? And if the celestial messenger were to spread the news that you killed Xiao Chuqing, you will die for sure! "
Rays flashed in Zhong Yue's eyes, he smiled and said, "Now that I've received the headmaster's heritage, I'm half a disciple of the Swords Gate headmaster. My words are much more important than before, even the elder council will have to think twice!"
'Shui Qingyan' giggled and said, "Alright, then how did you know that I'm Tian Myriad Mother? What proof do you have to prove that I'm Tian Myriad Mother? "
Zhong Yue's heart sank, 'Shui Qingyan' stared at his face, paying attention to any changes in his expression, she suddenly laughed and said, "You have your own secrets, don't you? It's because of your secrets that you found out that I'm Tian Myriad Mother. But if you tell the others that I'm Tian Myriad Mother, and they ask you to show them the proof, your secret will be exposed, right? "
Zhong Yue's heart sank again, The old demon god from ten thousand years ago, it's really not that easy to deal with!
'Shui Qingyan' covered her mouth and smiled, "I've long suspected that you're not the Zhong Shan Clan member, but some other god has taken over your mortal body, that's why your prowess has improved so much. You don't want to expose your secret, it's because you're also a god! Since you know who I am, then why don't you and I be frank? Who are you? Reveal yourself! "
Zhong Yue's heart thumped, he laughed out loud, his voice suddenly turned old and hoarse, "Little girl, you've seen through me …."
His voice suddenly turned old and hoarse, mixed with a young man's voice, the two voices mixed together, it was extremely strange, "Tian Myriad Mother, in front of me, you're just like a little insect, when I was at my peak, I could easily squash a bunch of insects like you! I'm much more ancient than you can imagine, my origin, you can't even begin to guess! "
'Shui Qingyan' was shocked, her face changed drastically, she looked at Zhong Yue from head to toe in shock.
Zhong Yue's two voices overlapped, it was as if two people of different ages were speaking at the same time, saying the same thing. Clearly, this was Zhong Yue's mortal body and Zhong Yue's soul speaking at the same time, it was just that his "soul" was much older than his mortal body, that's why it was so strange!
Zhong Yue's heart was filled with anxiety, but in his psyche ocean, Xin Huo was jumping with joy, the two voices overlapped, one was Zhong Yue's own voice, the other was Zhong Yue's request to Xin Huo.
Zhong Yue and Xin Huo did this to scare her. Xin Huo was a simple-minded person, he would not be worried at all and would only think that it was fun. But Zhong Yue was worried that this female demon god would see through him. If Tian Myriad Mother knew that he was trying to scare her, she would be enraged and spread the news of him killing Xiao Chuqing to the public!
If that happened, the Xiao Mang Celestial Race would spare no effort to kill him!
"You're scaring me!"
'Shui Qingyan's' face changed drastically, the pavilion beneath Zhong Yue's feet exploded, the roof of the pavilion flew up, the four pillars flew in all directions, the female demon god stood up, her sleeves fluttered in the wind, like a snow-white python coiling around Zhong Yue's neck, she sneered coldly and said, "You are a god, but you will never be stronger than me! You want to scare me, but you don't want to show your true face, how can it be so easy? Show yourself! "
Zhong Yue remained unmoved, he flicked his finger, 'Shui Qingyan's' sleeves fluttered in the wind, suddenly, 'Shui Qingyan's' sleeves burst open, revealing her snow-white arms, her arms transformed, scales crawled out from her skin, turning into two huge snakes, her palms turned into snake mouths, they opened their jaws wide and bit down at Zhong Yue!
Zhong Yue's body moved backward, 'Shui Qingyan's' arms that had turned into snakes chased after him, they grew bigger and thicker, the horns on the snake's head were ferocious, there were actually dragon horns growing out from the snake's head, emanating a murderous aura!
"Want to fight with me, you are still too young!"
A loud sound came from Zhong Yue's throat, he flipped his palms and slammed them down, blasting the air apart, covering the two snake heads, the two snakes shivered as if they were electrocuted, 'Shui Qingyan''s' arms shook, the two snakes turned back into arms, closing in on Zhong Yue, the sword silks — Chi Chi Chi — were unleashed, it was the Sword Cocoon of the Ten Malefic Weapons, slashing towards Zhong Yue!
At the same time, a dark ray soared into the air behind her, turning into a pitch-black long whip, with a fishy tail hook, it charged into the Sword Cocoon sword silks, aiming for Zhong Yue's head!
Zhong Yue's body swayed, and a black shadow appeared behind him. Arms spread out, and golden wings spread out. The wings turned into sword rays, and the sword feathers fluttered in the air, blocking the Sword Cocoon sword silks while the arms clawed at the tail hook that was coming at them.
Hu — —
Zhong Yue exerted strength in his palms, he lifted the girl up and slammed her down, the sounds of crashing could be heard, 'Shui Qingyan' crashed through the walls one after another!
This was not the pure 【Monster God Ming King Art】, it was a combination of the bird-headed, human-bodied, bird-headed Golden Crow form and the eight-armed Ming King form, he purposely made it look fake, to prevent his identity as Long Yue from being exposed.
Zhong Yue followed closely behind, his heart thumped suddenly, he saw a snow-white elephant trunk flying out from the broken wall, Weng — — the elephant trunk enlarged to the size of a sack, sucking him into it!
"Still not showing yourself? Today, I will beat you until you show yourself! "'Shui Qingyan' sneered coldly.
Zhong Yue spread his wings, flapping them, he flew into the sky, the houses crumbled, the palaces crumbled, the lady's legs and feet turned into scythe-like sharp blades, her long trunk curled up and the black tail hook behind her back swung out, she engaged in close combat with him!
"In close combat, do you think I am afraid of you?"
Zhong Yue revealed his eight arms, his head turned into a six-eyed monster with six eyes, the two of them did not look like humans, they clashed with each other, the houses collapsed, in just a blink of an eye, 'Shui Qingyan's' cave dwelling was razed to the ground by the shockwaves of their battle!
The two figures rolled and clashed for thousands of times, suddenly, voices could be heard, figures flew over from the other cave dwellings, it was the other inner hall Qi Practitioners that sensed the battle between the two, they came over to investigate.
'Shui Qingyan' quickly dispersed the Tian Myriad Mother form, Zhong Yue also dispersed the phenomenon behind him, the two were still fighting, but 'Shui Qingyan' did not use the Tian Myriad Mother form, how could she be a match for Zhong Yue in close combat?
Zhong Yue punched the lady onto the ground, the ground quaked, a ten feet deep and a hundred feet wide crater appeared, it was as if a meteorite had crashed into the ground.
"If I say I can crush you to death, then I can crush you to death!" Zhong Yue reached out his hand and grabbed onto the lady's neck, he lifted her up and sneered coldly.
'Shui Qingyan''s clothes were torn, she suddenly coiled her legs around Zhong Yue's waist, she forcefully twisted Zhong Yue to the ground, she sneered coldly and said, "Not necessarily!"
"Who? Who? "
One after another, the Qi Practitioners flew over, the fiery light shone down from the sky, they saw the young man and young lady tangled together, their clothes in disarray, the Qi Practitioners in the air were all startled, some of the female Qi Practitioners blushed, she spat and turned her face to the side.
"Zhong Shan Clan's stud, he really laid his hands on Junior Martial Sister Shui …."
A male Qi Practitioner said dispiritedly, the surroundings were a mess, it was obvious that the scene was very heated.
