Chapter 289: The Verge
It seemed that the news of Candle Wumo's death had spread, and Starwind City had a strange atmosphere more than before, and every pedestrian on the road was in a hurry. The mortals' faces were heavy, not to mention the monks, and it was rare for them to have no condescending expressions, staring at the monks around them cautiously.
When Ye Bai and Wan Chongshan walked from the remote mountain road to the official road, they immediately attracted the attention of all the monks, and in the silence, there was undisguised greed.
Ye Bai didn't need to expand his divine sense, he could find that several monks had been following him, their whereabouts were clear, and they didn't even hide their tracks, they should have been sent by Candle Cloud to stare at him.
"A bunch of things that don't know whether to live or die!"
Wan Chongshan's eyelids drooped, and his face was disdainful.
Ye Bai looked calm and said calmly: "This is the path that all monks want to take, just like the way of immortality, knowing that maybe it's just an illusion, I still can't suppress the desire to take it, to fight, to get, even if it's not for my father's practice experience, they will fight to the death for other magic weapons, spirit stones, the predecessors have lived for so long, they should be more transparent than me." ”
Wan Chongshan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It is precisely because of seeing through that I feel even more painful, sometimes the old man really wants to leave this shijie, forget all the things about the barbarians and the immortal island, and travel to other spaces." ”
Ye Bai was slightly stunned, his heart moved, and he pretended to be curious: "Is there any other space outside the Soul Continent?" Although the legend has been a long time, it seems that I have never heard of anyone who has really broken through the boundary. ”
Wan Chongshan nodded and said: "Other spaces, there must exist, just like the Heavenly Ruins, the monks of Immortal Island, it seems that they have always believed that there is a way to another shijie, but so far." It has not been confirmed. ”
Ye Bai took the opportunity to say: "Is it possible to lay a teleportation array-like thing and go directly to another space?"
"Shut up!"
Wanzhongshan's short and fat body suddenly slammed, and two cold lights shot out of his eyes, staring at Ye Bai viciously: "Have you heard of anything?" This old man's momentum suddenly rose, and he was majestic. Freezing Ye Bai in place, unable to move, it seems that as long as Ye Bai answers wrong, he will kill Ye Bai immediately.
Ye Bai was shocked by his ruthless face-turning, and he didn't know where to anger this old man, so he forced himself to calm down: "Senior, junior is just an assumption, and has no other meaning. ”
"Boy, don't think about that question again. Don't even think about it again if you have a future. ”
Wan Chongshan snorted coldly, slowly withdrew his breath, didn't say a word, and walked forward.
Ye Bai looked at the old man's back, and a look of thought flashed in his eyes.
There must be something strange in it! In the moment just now, he actually saw a look of fear in Wan Chongshan's eyes, as if the spatial teleportation array was a taboo topic.
......
The Star Picking Observatory is located on the top of a small hill 100 zhang high at the west end of Starwind City. The mountain is like an upright awl, and it is extremely steep. It is impossible for mortals to climb it, so over time, it has also become a meeting place for the monks of Starwind City when they go on a mission.
At the top of the mountain, the wind was chilling and whirring.
When Ye Bai and Wanzhong Mountain Imperial Sword ascended, there were already six monks standing on the top of the mountain, except for the two early Jindan monks of Candle Cloud and Yin Anshi just now. The other four are all the cultivation of the foundation of the Great Perfection. Seeing the six people, Ye Bai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Candle Cloud didn't seem to take him to heart at all, but with the strength of six people, he killed a monk who had built the foundation of the Great Perfection. There has been some fuss.
Candle Cloud was full of flirtatious smiles, full of confidence, and looked proud, seeing Wan Chongshan coming with Ye Bai, there was no surprise, he should have gotten the news from Yin Anshi's mouth, walked forward with a smile, and arched his hand: "I've seen Wan Lao, I don't know if my father has a last word for his younger generations before he dies?"
Wan Chongshan glanced at him coldly and said, "You don't recognize him as a father for a long time, how could he leave a last word for you, His Royal Highness has thought too much." ”
Candle Cloud was ridiculed by him in person, his face suddenly changed drastically, so hideous that it was almost distorted, his eyes were full of resentment, he took a deep breath, squeezed out an extremely ugly smile and said: "Wan Lao said that he laughed, I heard that the messenger of Immortal Island is strictly forbidden to meddle in the internal affairs of the major cities, Wan Lao should not forget, right?"
A look of helplessness flashed in Wan Chongshan's eyes, and he said with a straight face: "Boy, are you ridiculing me for being so old that my memory has faded?" Although I can't meddle in the internal affairs of Starwind City, if someone provokes the authority of Immortal Island, I don't mind killing him now." ”
Candle Cloud's skin was cold, his face changed, and he hurriedly said with a smile: "Wan Lao forgive me, the junior is just reminding you, the scenery of the star picking platform is not bad, Wan Lao slowly appreciates it, and the junior takes the first step." ”
After speaking, Chong Yebai shouted: "Li Lu, it's time to go." ”
Ye Bai had been waiting for this moment for a long time, nodded with Wan Chongshan, and didn't talk nonsense, he went directly with the sword, and the six people of Candle Cloud quickly followed, tightly surrounding him in the middle.
After the seven people left, on the high star-picking platform, only Wanzhongshan was left looking down on the barbarian land, with a complicated expression. His tense face gradually relaxed, and his voice was calm: "Come out!"
No one answered, the void shook for a while, like a layer of ripples on the surface of the water, and after a while, a tall and majestic male figure appeared, with a solemn cloth and a deep breath, it was the great prince of Starwind City.
Wan Chongshan smiled and said, "Are you also interested in Li Tuo's exercises?"
Candle Long's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he said coldly: "At this moment, does Wan Lao still plan to lie to me? If I wanted his practice experience, he would have given it to me thousands of years ago, so why wait until now." ”
Wan Chongshan sighed and said: "I knew that I couldn't hide it from you, since this is the case, you should know the pain and helplessness in your father's heart, why did you still make trouble with him to such a point, he and Ah Tuo were the most optimistic back then." ”
Candle Long stood side by side with him, looking at the undulating mountains and rivers in the distance, the tiger's eyes flowed with a heavy color of affection, and he lowered his voice and asked without answering: "Wan Lao, Immortal Island, is it really impossible to resist?"
Wan Chongshan pointed to the northwest and said softly: " You can resist, but the end of the rebellion is like that, the entire Northern Wilderness City was razed to the ground overnight, you are familiar with ancient books, you should know that the city lord of the Northern Wilderness City at that time, is also the top mid-Yuan Infant monk, compared to you and Ah Tuo, it is not much inferior, in order to fight against Liliang of Immortal Island, he even united five mid-Yuan Infant and seven early Yuan Infant monks, but the thirteen of them didn't even last a pillar of incense, they were all killed, you come and tell me, how do you resist?"
Speaking of a few words of zuihou, Wan Chongshan almost hoarsely exhausted, pointed his finger at Candle Long's nose, roared loudly, and looked extremely sad and angry.
Every word he said was like a knife, piercing deep into Candlelong's heart.
When Candle Long heard this, he was slightly stunned, his eyes gradually became confused and crazy, his face began to distort, and he muttered to himself: "What should the barbarians do, will they be enslaved by the Immortal Island forever? After cultivating to the middle of the Yuan Infant like the old guy, can they only wait for old age to die?"
Wan Chongshan glanced at him sadly, shook his head, and shouted, "Duh!"
The word exit, like the evening drum and morning bell, sounded in Candle Long's mind, Candle Long's body shook violently, and after a few breaths, his eyes gradually returned to clarity, and a thin layer of cold sweat had secreted on his forehead.
"Thank you Wan Lao!" Candle Long saluted, if it weren't for Wan Chongshan's shout just now, his Dao heart would probably sink forever, and his realm would plummet.
Wan Chongshan nodded, and said softly: "Candle Long, Atuo is a hero of the barbarians, and your father is also a hero of the barbarians, but the fate of the barbarians has not yet changed, wait patiently, I believe that one day there will be a turnaround, otherwise the way of heaven will be too unfair to my barbarians." ”
Candle Long smiled bitterly: "Maybe!"
Wan Chongshan said: "You should go and stabilize the situation in Starwind City at this time, why do you have time to come here?"
Candle Long regained his composure, smiled calmly, and said confidently: "Everything in the Starwind Mansion is under my control, and there is nothing to worry about." I'm here because Li Lu feels a little weird to me, and his style seems to be different from before. ”
Wan Chongshan was stunned for a moment, and then said with relief: "Maybe he has encountered too many changes recently, and there have been some changes." ”
Candle Long nodded silently.
Wan Chongshan said: "What about that child? is it still in the hands of Candle Kun?"
Candle Long shook his head and said, "When I came, I felt the breath of Mrs. Yun, and when I appeared in Candle Kun's mansion, the child should have been taken away by her." ”
Mrs. Yun?Is she finally out of the customs?Wan Chongshan's pupils shrank, and he frowned and thought about it.
......
In the south of Starwind City, in a dense forest a hundred miles away, Candle Cloud stopped his sword light, surrounded Ye Bai with the other five people, and said with a sympathetic smile: "Li Lu, I see that this place is good, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, it is a place to bury your bones, so I will send you on the road here." ”
Ye Bai stretched out his divine sense and looked at it, the nearby mountains were high and dense, and the ravines were criss-crossed, and he didn't find any other monks, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "It is indeed a good place to kill people and destroy corpses!"
