"I …" Yue Qianchou choked and was speechless. It was said that those who had nothing to lose were not afraid of those who wore shoes, and this was used to describe those ruffians. However, if they knew that there was a hard and sharp nail in front of them, which ruffian would still dare to step on it?
Jiu You lowered his head sadly. He had been cautious all his life! A small mistake had caused him to be doomed eternally. He wanted to cry, but no tears came out!
Cangyun Xin wanted to say something but stopped himself. He knew that it was meaningless for him to intervene. With Emperor of the Underworld Bai Qi here, he had no hope of protecting Yue Qianchou. Back then, the Sect Master's Three-in-One Sword-Drawing Technique could not deal with Immortal Emperor Jin Tai, and Emperor of the Underworld Bai Qi was definitely not weaker than Immortal Emperor Jin Tai. How could he deal with him? He could only take one step at a time. If he was really in a desperate situation, he could only fight with his life on the line. If he could escape, he would escape. If not, there was nothing he could do. After all, he had already come this far, and there was no way to retreat!
The red-armored soldier crossed his arms in front of his chest, and the red chains wrapped around his body made an ear-piercing sound. He sneered and said, "Why? You don't dare to? "
"You win …" Yue Qianchou said ruthlessly. He took out the Emperor of the Underworld's token and flew up to the roof of the palace. He had wanted to slip back to Utopia and run, but he thought that the Emperor of the Underworld's token was a genuine gift from the Saintess of the Underworld. He could take a gamble. The Emperor of the Underworld couldn't possibly kill him without saying a word, right? It wouldn't be too late to escape if he realized that something was wrong. It wasn't his style to cry until he saw the coffin!
Yue Qianchou flew up to the roof and stood behind the scholar. He held the Emperor of the Underworld's token with both hands and bowed respectfully. "Yue Qianchou of the Immortal World greets the Emperor of the Underworld!" Taking advantage of his free time, he glanced down at the foot of the mountain. He realized that the scenery at the foot of the mountain from this angle really made him feel like he was the ruler of the world.
Lowering his head, he saw the fair and bare feet standing on the roof slowly turn around without a speck of dust on them. He immediately understood that the Supreme of the Underworld was sizing him up. His heart immediately thumped non-stop, and many past events flashed through his mind …
Yan Zicheng met Liu Changqing, the head of the Aung Kwang-tsung sect, and joined the Aung Kwang-tsung sect. He became a small disciple who was ridiculed. Later, his master died, and he was framed. After experiencing a series of events, he escaped with his life. After hiding outside for a long time and experiencing some things, he joined the number one sect in the Cultivation World, Fuxian Island. He was expelled from the sect and was hunted by various sects. Then … he became the disciple of the number one expert in the world, Bi Changchun, until he took charge of the Demon Domain and became the number one expert in the human world. Finally, he founded the World Chamber of Commerce in the Immortal World. He had been through countless life and death situations along the way …
In the past, he would never have dreamed that he would one day be able to stand face to face with the legendary Emperor of the Underworld in the Three Realms. He was able to achieve what he had today by walking step by step. He had experienced life and death so many times, what was there to be afraid of …
He gritted his teeth and slowly raised his head to meet the gaze that was staring at him. What entered his eyes was a refined and handsome face with a slight smile. It was completely different from the sinister and sinister Emperor of the Underworld he had dreamed of. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Was this person really the Emperor of the Underworld who could make the Three Realms tremble?
The scholar was also sizing up Yue Qianchou carefully. He wanted to see what kind of person the Saintess of the Underworld was talking about was. When he saw that there was no trace of fear in the other party's eyes when he raised his head to look at him, he couldn't help but nod slightly in his heart. Indeed, there was something extraordinary about an extraordinary person. It was rare for a cultivator with the cultivation of a Minor Immortal to not be afraid when he saw him.
What he didn't know was that Yue Qianchou didn't even have the courage to raise his head to look at him. He only managed to raise his head after a torment in his heart. If he had looked at him with a murderous intent, it would be strange if Yue Qianchou wasn't afraid. Perhaps he wouldn't even be able to see Yue Qianchou's figure right now. Most importantly, he came with good intentions. That smile on his face was so harmless, and he looked refined and handsome. Women would rush up and kiss him when they saw him. Who would be afraid?
"Yue Qianchou! This is the second time we've met. "The scholar was the first to speak with a slight smile.
It was the first time for Cangyun Xin and Shen You to meet the Emperor of the Underworld. They didn't expect him to be such a handsome young man with such an amiable smile. It was truly beyond their expectations. Subconsciously, they felt a lot more at ease. Seeing that the Emperor of the Underworld had spoken, they couldn't hear a single word clearly. They guessed that there might be some sort of soundproofing barrier set up on the roof.
The red-armored soldier was also stunned. He had never seen the Emperor of the Underworld being so amiable to a foreign cultivator, especially a celestial cultivator. Under normal circumstances, the Emperor of the Underworld would maintain at least some dignity in front of outsiders. He wouldn't act like this. Of course, based on his understanding of the Emperor of the Underworld, it would be a different story if he saw a beautiful woman!
"Uh …" Yue Qianchou's brain worked quickly. However, he was at a loss for a long time. He couldn't remember when he had seen the Emperor of the Underworld, who was renowned throughout the Three Realms. He had a splitting headache, but he still couldn't remember. His memory couldn't be that bad, right? How could he forget someone like the Emperor of the Underworld, Bai Qi?
For a moment, he didn't know how to answer. The Emperor of the Underworld said that they had met before. Could he say that he remembered wrongly?
"That … This junior is ignorant. I really can't remember when I've seen you before." Yue Qianchou said with a toothache. He was afraid that the Emperor of the Underworld was testing him. He also didn't know what the Emperor of the Underworld's temper was like. Was he a smiling tiger? He could only stiffen his neck and wait for the situation.
The scholar smiled faintly and said, "That's true! I could see you in front of the Dragon Transformation Gate. With your cultivation, you can't see me. "
"Uh …" Yue Qianchou was speechless. So he was referring to that time. Suddenly, he felt the weight in his hands lighten. The Emperor of the Underworld's token had already floated to the Emperor of the Underworld's hand. His heart jumped, and he was prepared to escape at any time. Below, Cangyun Xin and Shen You's expressions changed drastically. They were probably all done for this time …
The scholar looked at the token over and over again and said faintly, "I personally carved the Emperor of the Underworld's token. There are only two sides. One side is on me, and I'm prepared to use it to pass down orders at any time. The other side is given to the Underworld Saintess for protection. When the Underworld Saintess told me that she gave the Underworld's token to you, I was a little surprised. "
"Uh …" Yue Qianchou was surprised. "Did the Underworld Saintess tell you that she gave the Underworld's token to me?" No matter how he listened to it, he felt that something was wrong. The Underworld Saintess had obviously given the token to Yu Ji, and it had nothing to do with him. How could he not understand the words of an expert?
The scholar nodded slightly and said, "She was trapped in the human world for a long time. She said that when she returned to the Underworld, she realized that she was fated to meet you, so she gave this token to you. However, she didn't tell you that she gave you the token of the Underworld."
Yue Qianchou was speechless. He slowly tilted his head to look at the rising red fog, a puzzled expression on his face. He believed that the Emperor of the Underworld had no need to lie to him. However, why did the Underworld Saintess say something that distorted the truth? From what the scholar had said, it seemed that the Underworld Saintess had intentionally concealed the fact that he was from the human world. Could it be that she was trying to protect him? But why was that? Could it be that she had fallen in love with him at first sight? But it seemed that his current appearance was not good enough for a woman to fall in love with him at first sight.
"Not long after the Underworld Saintess told me this, Jintai suddenly came to the Royal Palace of the Underworld and asked me why I gave you the Underworld's token …" The scholar immediately told Yue Qianchou what he had told Jintai that day. This was the reason why he didn't care about his status as the Emperor of the Underworld and asked someone to trick Yue Qianchou into meeting him. He wanted to let Yue Qianchou know that he had helped him before, so that Yue Qianchou would remember this big favor.
What the hell were they doing? Yue Qianchou scratched his head in confusion. He was no longer nervous, but he said with a wry smile, "Emperor of the Underworld! This junior can't figure out why you helped me like this. It seems that this junior's ability is not worthy of your kindness! "
It's right that you can't figure it out. If I could figure it out, then I, the Emperor of the Underworld, would be too despicable to come here and curry favor with you! The scholar immediately laughed heartily. His thin white robe wrapped tightly around his body in the wind, giving him a feeling that he was floating in the air. He appeared to be exceptionally elegant and refined. This surprised Cangyun Xin, Jiu You, and the red-armored soldiers below, not knowing why the Emperor of the Underworld was so happy.
He waved his hand disapprovingly, saying, "You are too serious! It's not a kindness. Since the Underworld Saintess thinks so highly of you, how can I undermine her? Naturally, I have to do my best to help you. Otherwise, as an immortal, you dared to use my Underworld Emperor's token to show off outside, let alone help you block Jintai. Do you really think you can avoid my eyes and ears by hiding in the Underworld River? Once I give the order, how can the Water Tribe of the Underworld not give me face? If I want to deal with you, I can make it difficult for you to move an inch in the Underworld River at any time. If I want to catch you, it will be a piece of cake. Do you think you can hide until today? "
As he spoke, he laughed coldly and said, "Actually, your movements in the Netherworld River have always been within my grasp. It's just a matter of time and place for me to catch you. Otherwise, why do you think the Purgatory Army coincidentally intercepted you in the Netherworld River? Do you really think you are catching a fugitive from the Endless Horizon? It's because I happened to come here for something. Thinking that the Underworld Saintess thinks so highly of you, I can't help but want to see why she thinks so highly of you. So, I asked the soldiers to intercept you and bring you here. Do you think I can see just anyone? "
Although what he said was half-true, the domineering aura of the Supreme Emperor of the Underworld was undoubtedly revealed in his words. He behaved like an emperor, using both kindness and power! It was enough to fool Yue Qianchou without his knowledge. Yue Qianchou wouldn't expect that the Emperor of the Underworld came here on purpose for him.
Hearing this, Yue Qianchou blushed with shame. He realized that the three of them had indeed thought too simply, thinking that they could avoid being caught by the Emperor of the Underworld by hiding in the water. Since the Emperor of the Underworld had been in charge of the Underworld for so many years, his relationship with the Water Tribe of the Underworld River was naturally not bad. If he, the Emperor of the Underworld, asked the Water Tribe of the Underworld River for him, how could they not give face to the Emperor of the Underworld for the sake of an insignificant Celestial Cultivator like him? It was guaranteed that a large group of people would surround and intercept him.
"I felt that there was something fishy about being intercepted in the Underworld River. So that's what happened!" Yue Qianchou smiled bitterly and rubbed his nose. He cupped his hands and said, "I wonder how the Emperor of the Underworld is going to deal with us now?"
"If I really wanted to deal with you, I wouldn't be meeting you here. Zhan Jun would have already killed you. Based on Zhan Jun's ability, the Three-in-One Sword-Drawing Style of the Heartless Palace would not be able to stop him, unless Wang Qing himself used it. That Graycloud Xin is still not good enough. "
The scholar waved his hand and the token of the Emperor of the Underworld landed in Yue Qianchou's hand. He smiled faintly and said, "Since the Saintess has already given it to you, I have no reason to take it back. The Saintess has given you benefits, so I naturally can't be too stingy … In the future, you can use this token to come to the Underworld Royal Palace to see me at any time. I will allow you to use the token of the Emperor of the Underworld to solve any problems you encounter in the Underworld. What do you think? The benefits I have given you won't be any worse than the Saintess's, right? "
"Ah …" Yue Qianchou was stunned. He had never dreamed that this would be the outcome. He didn't dare to believe that this was real. Could it be that there was such a thing as a free lunch in this world? He quickly calmed down. He didn't believe that there was such a good thing. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your favor, Emperor of the Underworld! What does Emperor of the Underworld need this junior to do? "
With the scholar's insight and experience, he could naturally tell what Jiang Yi was thinking. He smiled coldly and said, "Do you think that I am making a deal with you? In the three realms, if I want to do something, I only need to say the word and someone will do it. If I want something, someone will naturally deliver it to me. Do you think that with your current ability, you are qualified to be ordered around by me? I am only helping you because I am happy. Don't think too highly of yourself. "
Damn it! You don't have to be so direct. You should at least give me some face! Yue Qianchou stood there awkwardly. When he thought about it, he felt that the scholar was right. The scholar didn't have anything he wanted, and his subordinates were as many as the clouds. He also had countless subordinates. Whatever he wanted to do, he could settle it with just a word. Yue Qianchou really wasn't qualified to be ordered around by the scholar. It seemed like he was indeed thinking too much.
Seeing that Jiang Yi had already been convinced by him, the scholar felt it was funny. However, on the surface, he asked calmly, "Let me ask you. What are you doing here instead of cultivating and improving your own cultivation?"
Yue Qianchou immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, this junior was forced to do so. Just as the Underworld Saintess said, this junior didn't know that this was the Underworld Token. When I took it out, even I was shocked, thinking that I had gotten into trouble … To tell you the truth, Emperor of the Underworld! The few of us fled here for our lives. " He wanted to say that he was here to collect information, but he reckoned that he wouldn't be able to fool the other party. He might as well just admit that he was a coward.
"Hmph! You are just an ignorant junior. I don't have time to waste on you. "The scholar waved his hand and retracted the soundproof barrier. He then said calmly to the people below," Zhan Jun! Let them go! " After saying this, he disappeared from the roof. A streak of white light moved as fast as lightning, disappearing into the distant horizon in the blink of an eye …
