When he said this, the most shocked person was Yue Qianchou. His mouth was wide open … Oh my god! When did I have such a great reputation that even the water race hiding in the River Styx know my name?
Graycloud Xin's face darkened on the spot. From the other party's reaction just now, it was very likely that the reason why the other party knew Yue Qianchou's name was because he had heard of Graycloud Xin's name. This meant that the matter of him following the Celestial Emperor's decree to protect Yue Qianchou had already spread throughout the Netherworld …
"Father is wise, he is indeed Yue Qianchou, Big Brother Yue as in 'leaping over the dragon gate'." Xiao Yuan didn't miss the opportunity to poke his head out from behind Yue Qianchou and flatter him.
Yue Qianchou tilted his head and glanced at him, speechless. If I had known that you would have a father, I wouldn't have been your Big Brother Yue. But he still cupped his hands and smiled at Li Guang. "Yue Qianchou of the Immortal Realm's World Chamber of Commerce greets Your Majesty and Empress." Actually, after a moment of thought, he also realized that even if the Emperor had heard of him, it was impossible for him to recognize him. To be able to recognize him as Yue Qianchou at a glance, it was most likely because of Ashy Cloud Letters.
The group of crown princes and princesses looked strangely at Yue Qianchou, then at their father and mother. They had also heard of the World Chamber of Commerce's Sect Master Yue Qianchou who had caused trouble in the Immortal Realm, but they didn't know how their father could recognize Yue Qianchou at a glance. What they didn't know was that Li Guang and his wife had received the news about Yue Qianchou and Asheng Yun Xin just before they set off. This news hadn't had time to spread in the Li Palace yet.
Li Guang and his wife looked at each other, smiled faintly, then slowly sat back down. There had long been a rumor in the Immortal World that Yue Qianchou was able to conceal his cultivation level because he had mistakenly consumed some kind of immortal pill. In reality, his cultivation level was nothing special. In this way, the couple's suspicion that Yue Qianchou was a late-stage Immortal Emperor expert was resolved. With Cangyun Xin's mid-stage Immortal Emperor cultivation base, it was not worthy for the couple to stand and reply.
In the distant sky, Ding Xiang and the others in the Hidden Dragon Villa could only vaguely see the two parties interacting. As for what they were saying, they could not hear it clearly …
At this moment, the fireflies in the empty belly of the mountain gate gradually scattered under the sound of the fish jumping in the water. The gazes of all the aquatic creatures turned in that direction, and the atmosphere instantly changed. Graycloud Xin's face tensed up as he looked over. Yue Qianchou looked around in confusion, wondering what was going on.
As the last Nether River Black Carp leaped up, the last wandering firefly was devoured, and the last ray of light in the belly of the mountain was extinguished. In an instant, not a single ray of light could be seen on the surface of the river, and only the sound of the surging water could be heard.
"Rumble!" There was a deafening rumble, and more than a dozen bolts of purple lightning flashed in the sky, illuminating the world with a purple haze. The strangest thing was that the bolts of purple lightning did not disappear after they appeared. Instead, they kept flashing and changing into arcs. The bolts of purple lightning formed a circle, spiraling continuously in the dark sky. Moreover, it spun faster and faster, until it was like a rotating purple light.
Yue Qianchou was slightly startled. He felt that this spiraling purple light was like a teleportation gate from the Immortal World to the Netherworld. Could it be that something was coming to the Netherworld from another space …
On the towering Minghuang Mountain surrounded by the five peaks. Inside the simple yet magnificent, sacred yet mysterious Minghuang Royal Harem, a small building stood in the middle of a secluded forest. The attic on the second floor had an open window, and the only light inside came from the fireflies crawling on the roof.
Looking out from the attic, one couldn't see the sun, moon, or stars, but there were many fireflies in the secluded forest, like stars in the night sky. Everything seemed so quiet and tranquil.
The night wind blew, and the Silver Armored Thousand Soldier's long hair fluttered. He was wearing a silver armor, and his face was full of stubble. He was silently looking at the slowly crawling stars in the secluded forest, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Suddenly, the sound of a paper scroll being pulled came from the attic, and then a gentle voice sounded, "Thousand Soldier, have you recovered from your injury?" The white-robed scholar didn't even raise his head. After pulling the paper scroll, he added ink to the brush in his hand. He gently put one hand behind his back, and the other hand held the brush and added ink to the paper scroll.
The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier slowly turned around and walked to the side of the scholar. Seeing that the ink on the inkstone was about to run out, he picked up the wooden spoon on the table, and gently scooped up a small spoonful of water and poured it on the inkstone. Then he put the wooden spoon back into the basin, and picked up the ink on the inkstone. With a slight rustling sound, he helped the scholar grind the ink on the inkstone. While grinding, he said, "My injury is healed, but the shock in my heart is still not gone."
"Yes! I am also very surprised. I didn't expect such an expert to appear in the human world. It is really unimaginable … This person is indeed not simple! " As the scholar said this, the tip of the brush in his hand suddenly started to delicately sculpt. The thin face of an old man in a green robe appeared vividly under the tip of the brush, and the drawing was very realistic. It was Bi Changchun, whom Yue Qianchou had been searching for so long without any news of him.
The content of the painting was majestic, and the order of the content was Bi Changchun defeating the Silver Armored Thousand Soldier. Then, it was the fierce battle with the four Netherworld Generals. The content of the painting was the scene of the scholar fighting with Bi Changchun …
"I didn't expect him to be able to escape from your hands." The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier paused and looked at the painting. He carefully ground the ink and said, "To be able to have you paint for him, he died with honor."
"Died?" The brush in the scholar's hand stopped, and then he shook his head and continued to paint. "Perhaps!"
"Do you suspect that he didn't die? Even if he didn't die at that time, can he still come out alive after escaping into that place? " The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier put down the ink in his hand and said with a frown, "He wasn't a match for you at all. You chased him all the way and … you still let him escape. What exactly happened?"
The scholar laughed softly and added ink to the brush in his hand. Perhaps he had thought of something, and the tip of the brush landed on the painting. Although Bi Changchun's green robe was already torn, his expression became more and more fierce. That impassioned aura of fighting against the heavens and earth leaped out, causing people's hearts to tremble. The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier let out a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but think of the scene where he fought with this person.
"At that time, I hit him one thousand and three hundred times consecutively. Given his cultivation, it was already a miracle among miracles that he didn't die from such serious injuries." The scholar revealed a bitter smile that he hadn't shown for many years. He shook his head and said, "This person's willpower is so strong that it's terrifying. As long as he's still breathing, he definitely won't admit defeat. When he realized that the difference in strength between us was too great, I also cherished his talent. I once told him that as long as he admitted defeat and submitted to me, I could spare his life and give him everything that I could. "
The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier laughed and said, "Obviously, he rejected me. Otherwise, why would he be forced to escape into that place?"
The scholar suddenly straightened his back and looked at the distant night sky. He sighed and said, "That's right, he rejected me. The words of rejection still resounded in my ears. He said, if you want me to submit to you, it's very simple. Kill me and make me fall under your feet! "
"If you want me to submit to you, it's very simple. Kill me and make me fall under your feet …" The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier silently repeated a few times. His emotions were stirred up as he said, "What a character! Right now, I really want to go to that world and see what's going on there. How could such a character appear in that world? "
The scholar waved his hand and said, "Don't even think about it. Jin Tai and I have a premonition that there's something waiting for us there. Once those people who provoked the Heaven's Punishment return there, they'll definitely suffer retribution. You're one of them."
The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier was silent for a while and said, "With his cultivation and speed, there's no way he could escape from your pursuit. You should have had countless opportunities to kill him. Could it be because you cherished his talent and couldn't bear to kill him, so you forced him into that place and let him fend for himself? "
"You've overestimated me and underestimated him. Since I can't subdue him, I won't let this scourge live! "
The scholar shook his head and dipped the brush in his hand in ink again. He began to paint the scene of him chasing after Bi Changchun. As he painted, he said, "Although this person's cultivation wasn't high, he did have some ability. I reckon that at that time, all the blood in his body had already flowed out, but he stubbornly held on and would rather die than surrender. He wouldn't give up until the end. While he was escaping, he released a portion of the celestial essence in his body. After the golden arcs formed by the celestial essence fused with the heaven and earth … a strong gale suddenly rose between heaven and earth. The gale was like a strong wind, pushing him to escape, but at the same time, it blocked my pursuit. In such a situation where he couldn't stop me, countless shocking thunderbolts appeared between heaven and earth. I chased him all the way, and the countless thunderbolts bombarded me all the way. That's not all. In the end, all kinds of extreme phenomena such as snow, rain, wind, frost, and thunderbolts appeared one after another to help him escape. I couldn't help but suspect that it was the Heaven's Punishment. Even thinking about it now makes my scalp tingle. "
"How could this be?" This was the first time the Silver Armored Thousand Soldier had heard of such a strange thing. He was stunned and said, "Could it be that this person's cultivation method can borrow the power of heaven and earth?"
"I'm afraid so!" The scholar smiled bitterly and said, "I can feel that the power of heaven and earth moved according to his stubborn will. It followed him all the way, but it made things difficult for me. If not for this, how could he have escaped from me? However, the price he paid was also huge. The moment he barged into that place, I could feel that his cultivation was almost exhausted … His blood was drained, his cultivation was exhausted, and he was only left with one breath. After barging into that place, no matter how powerful he was, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to survive. "
"But when I said that he would die a glorious death, why did you say 'maybe'?" The Silver Armored Thousand Soldier tilted his head and stared at him. "Even though he was injured to this extent, you still don't dare to believe that he will die?"
"Previously, I thought that he would definitely die, but later … after the Holy Maiden returned from the human world, I accidentally thought of asking the Holy Maiden to perform a divination for that person, to see if he was dead or alive …"
