"What, the three of you …" Ye Kong knew about the relationship between the Great Emperor and Lei Zhen, but he didn't expect Mao Zhanghai to be with them.
"Back then, I was just an orphan in the Evil Killing Land. I did some sneaky things in the lower city. At that time, although Lei Zhen had already created Raymond, he wasn't happy. He felt that he was brimming with talent, but he couldn't find a direction. He didn't want to waste his time becoming a Cloud Wanderer, so he came to the Evil Killing Land. I met him after a drink. "
"At first, Lei Zhen didn't take me seriously. After all, he was the founder of Raymond, and I was just a gangster. Fortunately, I knew a lot of friends, and I introduced them to Lei Zhen. Lei Zhen, who had nothing to do, was happy. Among these friends, one was called Mao Zhanghai. "
"At that time, Mao Zhanghai had yet to refine the Source of Evil, and his actions could not be considered evil. He was just a ruthless person. Everyone in the Evil Killing Land was ruthless, so we did not take it seriously."
When the Great Emperor was talking about these things, he was also recalling them. To him, these were the most important things in his life. He wouldn't forget them even if he died. In fact, he could even remember some of the details clearly.
The Great Emperor paused for a moment, then said, "Among the three of us, I was the weakest. I had only refined a bit of the Law Source. However, I was well-informed. One day, I received news that there was a small clan outside the lower city that had trapped an ancestral beast in the Dao Sea. They invited all the knowledgeable people to kill the ancestral beast and distribute the materials. "
Ye Kong thought that this was similar to what he had done. However, how did these people trap the ancestral beast?
"I sent the news back. Brother Lei Zhen and Mao Zhanghai said that since they had nothing to do, they should go and take a look. By the time we arrived, we had already gathered more than a thousand leaders. Including the experts of the small clan, there were more than three thousand experts. Therefore, under the arrangement of the leader of the small clan, we started to attack the Boundless Sea not far from Meng Yuan. We started to attack crazily. "
Ye Kong asked curiously. "Attacking downwards? Is it attacking the surface of the sea, or the Ancestor Beast in the sea?"
The Great Emperor said, "We didn't really understand back then, so we just listened to the Patriarch's arrangements. Later, when I thought about it, we were really stupid. The seawater didn't react at all. All of our attacks landed in the space dozens of meters above the sea. "
"Attack the void?" Ye Kong was stunned. He didn't know what it felt like to have thousands of people attack the air at the same time.
The Great Emperor said, "After fighting for a while, we felt that something was amiss. Only then did the Patriarch tell us the truth. It turns out that he was a treasure hunter who traversed all over the world. He came to the Evil Killing Land to find the treasure of an ancient Gold Clan senior. Legend has it that this treasure was sealed eternally in the space above the Endless Sea using a secret technique. "
"There's actually such a seal!" Ye Kong was shocked when he heard this. In other words, any random space in front of him could have a treasure sealed by an ancient expert.
"There really is." The Great Emperor continued, "When everyone heard this, they weren't too willing to do it, because it was too inconceivable. According to our formation, it needs a certain amount of energy to supply elemental energy if it runs for a long period of time. The sky above the Endless Sea was empty, so how could there be a formation? However, the Patriarch swore and took out a lot of evidence. He also promised that as long as we listened to him, he would give everyone a lot of Meng Crystals every day. Everyone continued to attack for the sake of the Meng Crystals. "
"After attacking for a hundred days, some people left. However, one day, in that space, there was a flash of golden light. A rune that we had never seen before appeared …"
Speaking up to this point, Ye Kong's eyes moved. "Golden Wheel Runes?"
If it was possible to set up a formation in the Endless Sea, other runes would be impossible. Only the Golden Wheel Runes could be used. The Golden Wheel Runes were alive and could survive in the Endless Sea. Thus, Ye Kong immediately guessed it.
"That's right, it was the Golden Wheel Runes." The Great Emperor nodded. "At that time, everyone didn't understand the Golden Wheel Runes. However, they all knew that the story about the treasure was probably true! Thus, these people started to change their minds. If there really was a treasure, who would care about a few Meng Crystals? However, there were thousands of people present. Moreover, that small clan's people were here. No one was a match for them! "
Ye Kong nodded. "All of you outsiders who came to help added up couldn't compare to that clan's people. If they really found the treasure, I'm afraid that all of you would be killed."
The Great Emperor said, "Exactly. Some people got scared and left. Just like that, a few days passed. Suddenly, someone flew back and said that everyone who left was killed on the way. When I heard the news, I was very scared. However, Lei Zhen and Mao Zhanghai were very resourceful. Mao Zhanghai was the first to rush out. He killed the person who flew back and said, "This person is bewitching people. We can't let him live!"
"I see!" Ye Kong thought in his heart. Mao Zhanghai used this kind of method to befriend that small clan's people. Indeed, he was ruthless.
The Great Emperor continued, "That small race wants to borrow the strength of our group. Seeing that Mao Zhanghai and Lei Zhen are useful, their attitude towards the three of us changed, and they let the three of us manage the experts who came to help. However, even so, the small clan was still very wary of the three of us. It was very difficult for us to escape. Thus, Lei Zhen thought of a new method. That was to seduce the women of that small clan and turn us from outsiders to insiders! "
Ye Kong nodded in his heart. This Lei Zhen was sinister and Mao Zhanghai was ruthless. They were a perfect match.
"With the three of us working hard, we really managed to seduce three women from the clan. Lei Zhen seduced one of the clan leader's daughters. That woman was very ugly. Seeing that Lei Zhen was handsome, knowledgeable, and had a shocking cultivation base, she quickly fell in love with him. Just like that, the three of us became members of the clan and wouldn't be silenced. In the blink of an eye, three months passed. "
"At this time, we had completely become members of the clan. The clan leader trusted Lei Zhen and Mao Zhanghai very much. He told us that the treasure could appear at any time. At that time, we must kill all the experts to prevent them from spreading the news. Otherwise, there would be endless troubles in the future."
The Great Emperor thought of that scene and was still shaken to the core. He said, "Originally, I thought that as long as I could live, I wouldn't care about anything else. However, Lei Zhen and Mao Zhanghai didn't think that way. They thought that this was an opportunity. If they could profit from this and obtain the treasure in the end, their cultivation path would truly reach the heavens!"
