Yan Tuo, whom Yue Qianchou hadn't seen for a long time, had arrived. He was once an elder of Fuxian Island, but he was now a prisoner. He was lifted up like a little chick. The Ghost King threw him to the ground, and his armor clanked. He cupped his fists and retreated to the side.
Yan Tuo staggered to his feet. His hair was white and messy, and his clothes were tattered. There were bloodstains on his torn clothes, and it looked like he had been whipped. He looked like he had aged a few decades in an instant, and he didn't look like the elder who ordered people around.
Yue Qianchou looked down coldly. If he hadn't been too arrogant in the past, he wouldn't have been tricked by a few jokes. However, Yue Qianchou didn't expect him to age so much. He had taken good care of himself in the past, but now his hair was all white, and his face was full of wrinkles. If he didn't know who he was, he wouldn't have recognized him. It should be known that the higher one's cultivation base was, the slower they aged. How could this be?
After pondering for a while, Yue Qianchou understood. At such a young age, his dantian was sealed, and his cultivation base was sealed for several months. Without the nourishment from the circulation of True Origin, he naturally aged faster. Moreover, he was tortured. He didn't know how Yu Ji tormented him after she understood that it was fine as long as he didn't kill him.
Like an old man over a hundred years old in the secular world, Yan Tuo staggered around the hall. Finally, his lifeless eyes came into contact with the ice-cold gaze of the person sitting on the throne, and he abruptly realized that it was not the gaze of the smiling woman. Then, he looked at the entire face … Yan Tuo's pupils shrank, and he yelled with a hoarse voice, "Yue Qianchou, Yue Qianchou, it's you …" He stumbled a few steps forward, but a ghost general immediately took a step forward and shouted, "How dare you!" He slapped him back to the ground.
Zi Yi couldn't bear to watch any longer. She clenched her teeth and said to Yue Qianchou, "If you want him to die, just say the word. Why do you have to torture him like this?"
Yue Qianchou looked at her coldly and didn't say anything to her. Instead, he said to the people below, "Old man Yan Tuo, we haven't seen each other for many years. I didn't think that we would meet again. Where did the arrogance that you used to order me around go?"
Yan Tuo got up again, looked around, and then looked at the person sitting high up on the throne. Instantly, he understood everything. The person in charge now was Yue Qianchou. There was a trace of blood at the corner of Yan Ta's mouth as he shook his white hair and smiled bitterly, "Looks like I've been deceived by you. You have enmity with my son, so how could you not kill him? I'm sure my son has already died miserably in your hands."
Yue Qianchou sneered and said, "I never lie. If I say your son is here, then your son is naturally here. Besides, you are a dying man, so there is no need for me to lie to you."
As soon as he said this, Zi Yi immediately looked at him suspiciously. As for the generals and Yu Ji, their expressions were indescribable. They knew the ins and outs of Yue Qianchou, but they didn't expect the dignified disciple of the Devil Region's Torturer to lie without batting an eyelid. Moreover, he did it so openly in front of so many people. If they didn't know about it, it would be hard for them not to believe it.
Yan Ta's murky eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately said, "Yue Qianchou, where is my son? Can you let me see him?"
"Of course, no problem at all." Yue Qianchou waved his hand in a rather forthright manner. In the end, Yu Ji and the others were stunned. They didn't know where he was going to find a son to meet. Unexpectedly, he said, "However! Your son went against me in every aspect in the Supporting Immortal Island, so it's hard for me to vent my anger. Now that both of you are here, there has to be someone left to appease me! "
"What do you want?" Yan Ta asked.
"It's very simple. I never do things that are ruthless." Yue Qianchou stood up and said coldly, "I just arrived here today, and I'm here to settle this matter. Either I remove the seal on you, let you go, or I kill your son. Or you stay and continue to suffer, and I'll let your son go. Only one of you can live. Make your choice now! "
The group of ghost generals instantly became interested, and their gazes focused on Yan Ta. Yan Ta hesitated for a moment, then immediately replied, "Yue Qianchou, I hope you keep your word. I … stay, and you let my son go. " The atmosphere in the hall instantly became heavy, and the group of ghost generals immediately looked at Yan Tuo in a different way. It was admiration!
Damn it! What a deep father-son relationship. Yue Qianchou glanced at Zi Yi, who was moved, and he was rather unhappy. He wanted to watch the dark side of human nature and teach this girl a lesson. He wanted her to know what it meant to be a bastard who could see through human nature. He wanted her to know that a pitiful person must have a hateful side, so that she wouldn't be disobedient in the future. Now, she would probably become even worse.
Yue Qianchou didn't know that Yan Ta had begged people to accompany him to the Demon Ghost Region, but when people heard about the Demon Ghost Region, they became timid, and no one was willing to come. Therefore, he knew that his chances of survival were slim, but in order to save his son, he still came. He was already prepared to die.
Although you treated your son well, you didn't teach him well, and you harmed yourself and your son. You still have to pay the price. Yue Qianchou squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Remove the seal on his dantian, and let him go to the cave to pick up his son. Let them go together."
His words sounded nice, but everyone understood that Yue Qianchou had already sentenced Yan Ta to death. Yu Ji nodded to the people below, and someone immediately went to remove the seal on Yan Ta. Zi Yi bit her lips and didn't say anything …
When Yan Tuo heard this, he froze in place. Only when his body trembled and the vital energy in his dantian surged out and quickly circulated to nourish his almost withered body did he believe it was true. He looked at Yue Qianchou in a daze. Yue Qianchou took out a few spirit pills and threw them out. He said, "Recover quickly. Later, I will pick up your son and leave together."
After the seal was removed, Yan Ta immediately became more spirited. He sucked the spirit pills into his palm, stared at Yue Qianchou, and said slowly, "Yue Qianchou, I won't tell anyone about what happened in the Demon Ghost Region, or else I will be punished by heaven." Then he put the spirit pills into his mouth and sat down cross-legged.
No one in the hall spoke, and they all looked at Yan Ta. Knowing his fate, everyone's expression was one of sympathy or pity. Yue Qianchou silently put his hands behind his back. He really wanted to let Yan Ta go, but now was not the time to show his soft side. At this time, it was necessary to sacrifice a person to show his indifference, because there might be a day when he would take over the Demon Ghost Region. Demons and ghosts couldn't be suppressed unless they were strong. Bi Changchun's actions were very effective, and it was also a warning.
In the canyon that was less than a dozen miles away from the Ghost King's hall, gloomy clouds and fog were rolling. The temperature was close to freezing, and the howling wind made strange sounds. Not even a blade of grass grew in the surroundings. At the bottom of the black canyon, a trumpet-shaped hole suddenly appeared. It was wide on the outside and narrow on the inside. From the traces on the hole, it could be seen that it was caused by the cold, bone-chilling wind that blew out of the hole for many years. On the top of the cliff opposite the hole, a group of people stood in a row. In the middle were Yue Qianchou, Yu Ji, Zi Yi, and Yan Ta …
