Chapter Seventy-One: The Phantom Fills the Shadows

"Smack...... Bang ......

The sound of calm footsteps gradually moved away from the hustle and bustle of the drinking party, and Jiang Yao's figure passed through the unconscious security guard like a ghost, and appeared in an uninhabited alley next to the Zhou family's villa.

"Hehe, haven't you been tired after following for so long?"

Jiang Yao suddenly stood still, and opened his mouth with a smile, but before the words fell, a silver sword light suddenly burst out from behind him like a poisonous snake, straight to Jiang Yao's back!

"Phew!"

The crisp sound of collision echoed over the alley, and I saw that the silver sword was tightly clamped by two fingers and stopped in mid-air, while the figure that the sword light was originally pointing at had already dodged to the side, staring coldly at the cold white-haired man who took out the sword.

"Tsk, look at you, you can't hide your murderous aura......"

Jiang Yao sneered, the fingers of his left hand holding the sword body were immediately pulled, and his right hand was about to grab the white-haired man's face, but the white-haired man seemed to have expected it, and even his body with the sword twisted counterclockwise, instantly broke free from the shackles of Jiang Yao's fingers, and after adjusting his posture in an instant, he made a comeback with the cold sword light again.

γ€ŽBrush brush brush β€”β€”!』

With the sharp sound of breaking the wind, three sword lights came in an instant, and the angles were extremely tricky, blocking all the spaces that Jiang Yao could dodge, but what was surprising was that what was torn apart after the sword light was only Jiang Yao's afterimage, and the main owner was drowned in the shadows like a ghost at some point.

The white-haired man was slightly stunned, then immediately realized something, and hurriedly turned the head of the sword and was about to stab behind him, but before he could adjust his movements, his body suddenly stiffened.

The cold touch came silently from the back of his neck, and the white-haired man turned his head slightly, only to see that the man who had disappeared into the darkness had put his sharp nails against his neck, and his red eyes flashed ominously in the night.

"Do you want to keep playing? "Jiang Yao" looked at the white-haired man in front of him and said coldly.

The white-haired man known as "......Zero Abyss" was silent for a long time, and finally snorted coldly and put the silver sword into its scabbard.

"Hmph, it seems that even if you are sealed with demonic power, your skills have not regressed, gluttony. ”

Zero Abyss slowly turned around, looked at the red-haired man who had changed back to his original appearance, and said angrily. "Why don't you stay here at the Spirit Terrace, pretending to be a human?"

"Hehe, you dignified Tengu clan, don't stay in Yinshan well, what are you going to do when you come to be a human bodyguard?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You don't care. Zero Yuan turned his head, glanced at the still lively drinking party not far away, and then moved his gaze back to gluttony, and there was no lack of threat in his words. "Although I don't know why your Lingyutai would know that the Ye family has 'that thing', but I didn't expect you to do such a shretched thing as 'stealing', it's extremely hypocritical!"

"Hey, hey, I don't understand what you're saying?" said Gluttony, looking at Zero Abyss with some amusement. "And what exactly is 'that thing' you are talking about?"

"Is it fun to play stupid?" said Zero Abyss angrily. "Last night, a man with yin and yang eyes broke into the Ye family in disguise to steal, and this person is a strange person who can borrow the power of the 'demon god', don't tell me that it has nothing to do with you!"

"...... last night?" said Gluttony, raising his eyebrows. "Could it have something to do with that space shock?"

"It doesn't seem like you don't know anything. Zero Abyss scoffed. "That's right, that person broke the 'spatial barrier' and fell into the netherworld, through the stolen 'dragon bone key'. ”

"'Dragon Bone Key'?, the legendary artifact that can pass through any barrier actually appeared in the ...... of the Earth Realm?, no wonder there is a vibration in the space......" Gluttony held his chin, as if thinking about something. "So you think that the one who stole the Dragon Bone Key and fell into the Netherworld is the one who has the Spirit Throne?"

"Isn't it?"

"Unfortunately, I'm afraid not. Tao Tao spread his hands and said helplessly. "Now the Lingyutai itself is anxious about the spatial rift last night, and as far as I know, there is no Lingyu Divine Envoy with yin and yang eyes in the Lingyutai, so I don't need to lie to you about this. ”

"......" Ling Yuan stared at the gluttony in silence for a while, and finally let down his guard a little, and seemed to finally accept the glutton's statement. "If it's not yours, then what's sacred?"

"Hmm...... I guess that person may be an extraordinary person from the underground 'rivers and lakes', after all, not all abnormal people are willing to be co-opted by the Spirit Imperial Table. Gluttony said. "But what I'm curious about is, how can the Ye family have a treasure of the level of the 'Dragon Bone Key'?"

"I only know that it was started when the previous head of the Ye family was alive, and I don't know the source. Ling Yuan said with a serious expression. "But since getting that thing, the Ye family seems to be under a curse, not only the previous head died mysteriously, but even the current head Ye Han has been in danger of accidents several times, I'm afraid that behind these things is not simple, maybe ......"

Zero Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't continue.

"Hehe, if that's the case, then it's not a bad thing to lose something this time. Gluttony smiled and said. "But I still have to thank you for telling me about the 'Dragon Bone Key', and I know where to go next, and I owe you a favor this time. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ If you're going to continue your quest for the Dragonbone Key, I have a message for you. ”

Ling Yuan looked at the back of the gluttonous person who was about to leave, and suddenly spoke. "Recently, the infighting in the Demon God Mansion has been serious, and each faction will do whatever it takes to improve its own strength, and once the 'Dragon Bone Key' appears, it will definitely be coveted by all parties. ”

"Oh~Are you concerned about me?It seems that you have changed a lot over the years~" Gluttony turned his head, deliberately with a surprised expression on his face, and the mocking face saw that Ling Yuan was angry again, and he wanted to draw his sword and draw it.

"Okay, you can get out! Next time let me see you sneaking around Ye Han, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword!" Ling Yuan's eyes widened, and he was about to leave, while Tao Tao laughed and turned around to leave, but before he took two steps, the pace of the two suddenly stagnated at the same time, and then raised his head suddenly.

"Rumbleβ€”β€”!!

The sudden coercion fell from the sky like an invisible giant net, and in an instant, a huge shadow covered the sky and avoided the moon, and even the shadows of the surrounding trees were automatically windless. Zero Abyss stared incredulously at the huge shadow that flew overhead, his face full of shock.

"W-This can't be ......!!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The gluttony stared intently at the huge shadow that disappeared in an instant as it plunged into the clouds, and the expression on his face gradually became solemn.

"Now...... Trouble. ”

------------------------------

"Rumbleβ€”β€”!!

The violent concussion sound stimulated Jiang Yao's eardrums, waking him up suddenly from his hazy sleep, and while his consciousness gradually surfaced, he was greeted by an overwhelming pain in his head, Jiang Yao opened his eyes with grinning teeth, but was shocked to find that he couldn't move, only then did he find that he was lying in a bright red flower bush on the other side, with a pair of shackles firmly on his hands, and the black and white figures in front of him suddenly reminded him of the moment before he fell unconscious.

"Black ...... Black and white impermanence!?"

Jiang Yao realized something instantly, and hurriedly tried to get up, but at this moment, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something beside him, and when he turned his head, he saw a pair of big green eyes staring at him next to his face, and he was almost so frightened that his heart was about to jump out.

"Hmm, you, ...... you!?"

"Cluck...... Black and white impermanence, this kid has woken up!"

The croaking sound sounded excitedly, and I saw a giant toad monster dressed in a ghost costume and half a human tall jumping next to it holding a spirit flag, while the two figures in front of him, one black and one white, glanced at Jiang Yao indifferently, and then turned his head again to look at the dark purple sky that was flashing with thunder.

"It seems...... Something else has broken in. Bai Wuchang looked at the huge shadow that flashed in the sky, and his face was as calm as water. "It's not a 'little mouse' that's coming in this time, it's a 'big guy'. ”

"But the direction of travel seems to be ......" Black Impermanence stared at the direction in which the shadow was flying, and his face changed slightly. "Oh no, we don't have time to grind around here!"

Hei Wuchang said, turned his head to look at the toad ghost behind him who was holding the spirit flag, and opened his mouth to order:

"Frog Frog, you take this kid to the dungeon of Hades first, and we'll be there later. ”

"Obey, Lord Black and White Impermanence!" After receiving the order of Black Impermanence, the toad ghost named "Frog Frog" almost jumped three times, and repeatedly agreed, and Black and White Impermanence stopped speaking, and then turned into black and white two rays of light, flew into the distance in an instant, and disappeared.

"Cluck...... Come on, come with me!!" Frog Moon shouted loudly, and then shook the spirit flag in his hand while jumping, and as the shackles on Jiang Yao's body lit up with a glowing ghost, Jiang Yao stood up involuntarily and stumbled towards Frog Moon.

"Wait, where the hell is this, what the hell is this, ...... me!?"

Jiang Yao was shocked, he looked up, but found that the area he was in seemed to be a sea of blood-red strange flowers, and beyond that was a black field overgrown with weeds, and there were some figures faintly wandering in the fog in the distance, and even the shadows of some buildings, which seemed to be noisy from the direction of the buildings, and suddenly made people have the illusion of being in a market on the outskirts of a deserted city. It's just that all this is not as shocking as the golden river in front of you, the crystal streamer permeates the quiet waves, just a glance, it makes people feel a sense of direct heart, as if all the consciousness and soul are gradually blending in this golden streamer at this moment, slowly immersed in nothingness and silence.

"This is Lethe, ...... cluck"

Frog Moon looked at Jiang Yao's stunned appearance and grinned with an ugly big mouth.

"This is the Netherworld, and you're dead!"
