Begging for Shelter
"Hey, have you heard? The South Spear Emperor led his troops and fought with the West Sword Emperor outside Sword Emperor City. Just the number of casualties is in the hundreds!"
"Haha, that was a few days ago. The latest news is that the Great Desert Flame Emperor and the East Blade Emperor personally mediated. Now, both sides have reached a truce. At the same time, the West Sword Emperor issued an order for all martial artists."
"What order?" An ordinary Half-Sage who had just arrived came over and asked.
"Hmph, the order is simple. The West Sword Emperor suspects that the other Emperors instigated Gua King to steal the Emperor Weapon Yuan Embryo and frame Sword Emperor City. In order to prove their innocence, the other Emperors have jointly announced that anyone who discovers Gua King's whereabouts will be rewarded with one billion high-grade spirit stones. Anyone who captures Gua King will be rewarded with five billion high-grade spirit stones!"
The other martial artists gasped, "My God, five billion! But Gua Wang is a traitor who betrayed two Emperors. If he dares to show up, the Emperors won't even need to do anything. The subordinates of the two Emperors will immediately cut him into pieces!"
* Hiss … *
The sound of someone sucking in a cold breath came from behind. Gua King had followed them all the way. When he heard these words, he no longer had cramps, but tears of grievance flowed down his cheeks.
Only the heavens knew that he had been wronged. He, Gua King, had done nothing. It was clearly Ye Fei who had done the wrong thing. Why was he the scapegoat?
"The heavens are unfair!"
Gua King's face was covered in tears. He finally understood why his glabella was so dark and why the clouds above his head were so heavy.
With such a huge scapegoat on his shoulders, how could he not feel bad?
The five billion reward and the whereabouts of the Emperor Weapon Yuan Embryo were enough to make all the strongest Kings in the Land of Buried Gods go after him with bloodshot eyes.
Gua King understood that even if he took the initiative to explain himself, the fact that Ye Fei had used his name to betray the South Spear Emperor and fool the West Sword Emperor would cause the two Sovereigns to kill him for the sake of their reputation before settling the score with Ye Fei.
"I just don't understand. We're all young Kings, but the other Kings are all living a comfortable life. Why am I, the Gua King, so unlucky? I have a home, but I can't go back, and I can't go to an Emperor. Could it be that the heavens want me, the Gua King, to die?
Gua King's heart was filled with grief, anger, and despair. He had finally become a young King Realm expert and was about to join the Divine Martial Academy. He had a bright future ahead of him, but he had met Ye Fei. How could Gua Wang accept this? How could he tolerate this?
"If it wasn't for that Ye Fei, how could I, the Divinator King, have ended up in such a miserable state? Even if I die, I'll settle the score with him. Yes, let's do it this way. Since it was Ye Fei who harmed me, he must take responsibility. I must make him take responsibility for me to the end!"
After hearing the attitude of the two emperors, Gua King no longer dared to enter the Fist Emperor City, let alone show his face.
As soon as Gua Wang said that he would wait and see with Ye Fei for an hour, he was scared out of his wits and rushed back to the cave where Ye Fei was staying.
"Big Brother is really godly!"
Xia Jun and Little Fatty were betting that Gua King might not come back if he ran away, but in less than an hour, Gua King came back, looking like a rubber ball rolling in.
Both of them were stupefied.
Ye Fei, on the other hand, was calm and composed. He pretended to be surprised and looked at Gua King, "Gua King, why are you back? Did you bring your men to take revenge on me so soon?"
Hearing this, Gua King's face twitched and his heart twitched violently. He remembered that he had just threatened Ye Fei, telling Ye Fei to wait and see.
Gua King felt ashamed, but he didn't want to be the victim of the anger of the two emperors. Ye Fei might be his only support.
Flop.
Gua King came in and knelt before Ye Fei, his face full of grief and indignation. "Young Master Ye, please don't play with me! You played me so miserably. I'm already yours. Young Master Ye, you have to take responsibility for me to the end! "
After saying this, Gua King could no longer bear the grievance in his heart. Tears streamed down his face again as he looked at Ye Fei bitterly.
That gaze made Ye Fei and Xia Jun's scalps tingle. You're already my people, yet you still want to take responsibility until the end … These words sent chills down their spines. Only the little fatty was still a little muddle-headed and did not understand Gua King's words.
"What do you mean?"
"Simply put, I've decided to follow Young Master Ye. I ask that Young Master Ye take responsibility for me!" Gua King was still in shock and spoke incoherently.
Fortunately, they were all martial artists and had amazing comprehension.
Ye Fei quickly understood what Gua King meant. Xia Jun also asked with a smile, "It seems that Gua King has nowhere else to go and wants to seek refuge with us. But Big Brother, how did you know that Gua King would come back and ask us to take him in?"
"Do you even need to ask? I pretended to be Gua King and did such a big thing. Not only did I slap the South Spear Emperor in the face, but I also humiliated the West Sword Emperor. If you were them, would you let Gua King go? You'd rather kill the wrong person than let him go! "
Ye Fei smiled faintly.
It was because he knew this clearly and guessed that Gua King had nowhere else to go that he took the initiative to let Gua King go. Not long after Gua King ran out, he immediately came back and asked to be taken in.
After giving a simple explanation to Xia Jun, Ye Fei looked at Gua King and said, "Gua King, why should I believe you? Who knows if you'll betray me?"
"I can make a Heavenly Oath! I sincerely follow Young Master Ye. If I betray the Young Master Ye, I'll die a horrible death! "
Gua King also understood his situation. Apart from seeking refuge with Ye Fei, no one else would dare to take him in. Most importantly, most of the martial artists in the Land of Buried Gods were looking for him. If he showed up, he would die.
Although this was all Ye Fei's fault, in order to survive, Gua King immediately swore a Heavenly Oath with 30% grievance, 30% resentment, and 40% sincerity.
Ye Fei nodded in satisfaction. Gua King cultivated the Dao of Talismans, and the Heavenly Will was the core of his cultivation. If he violated the Heavenly Will, he would suffer a backlash from the Heavenly Will, and his abilities would basically be crippled.
Therefore, Gua King was very sincere in seeking refuge with Ye Fei. Since he was sincere, Ye Fei wouldn't let go of a special talent like Gua King.
He personally walked over and helped Gua King up.
"Gua King, since you're willing to follow me, we're on the same side from now on. We'll share our joys and sorrows. Oh right, this is your reward for cooperating with me to obtain the Emperor Weapon Embryo!"
Ye Fei was a good person to the end. The Blood Killer King killed indiscriminately in the forest and obtained many spatial belts from martial artists. Ye Fei didn't have much interest in these ordinary martial artists' treasures. Apart from taking the spirit stones, he simply divided the rest of the treasures among Xia Jun and Little Fatty.
He also casually gave Gua King some treasures.
Gua King felt a lot better. He wanted to express his loyalty and put on a grateful face, but when he thought about how his miserable life was all because of Ye Fei, and how he couldn't take revenge, he shamefully sought refuge with Ye Fei. Gua King couldn't feel grateful at all.
