Chapter 10: Interception
The yellow sand is vast, stretching for thousands of miles.
There was a man in white standing on a high place, his face cold and majestic.
Long Xingyu, the chief city lord of the seventy-two cities, is the commander of the 20,000 martial arts forbidden army, and has been guarding the border between the two races since the seal was broken.
Long Xing Soul looked at the abyss of death dozens of miles away and was silent. Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps behind him, from far and near, and the person seemed to be in a hurry.
"City Lord. β
Long Xingyu's eyebrows moved, "Say." β
"Letter from the Stargazers. β
Long Xingyu turned around, took a piece of letter paper from the person's hand, and then waved his hand, "You go down." β
After the people left, Long Xingyu unfolded the letter, and between silent thoughts, his brows slowly frowned, and he said to himself, "Polar, Nine Lives Ice Lotus-" The letter paper in his hand began to burn, and then turned into ashes in the air, "Xue Zichen...... Huh? The wind is blowingβ"
β¦β¦
Half past four in the afternoon.
Meng Wei sat in his office and flipped through the last document, signed it neatly, then glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and stretched again. After moving his cervical spine, he got up and packed up his desk to get ready to get off work.
Driving a Honda SUV, Meng Wei drove in the direction of home. After turning a few streets, he originally wanted to go directly to the tunnel, but he didn't want the tunnel mouth to be blocked, but Meng Wei had no choice but to take a detour and walk from the construction site next to him.
At this time, the sun had set, Meng Wei turned on the front and rear lights, and slowly drove in the construction site, suddenly there was a bright light flashing in front of him, Meng Wei subconsciously slowed down the car, and gradually, Meng Wei saw clearly, it was a few people. He lifted the glasses on the bridge of his nose, then honked the horn a few times, but the person did not move.
Meng Wei's brows furrowed suddenly, he loosened his seat belt, and then got out of the car, "Can the people in front give me a look, I am grateful." β
No one spoke.
Meng Wei had no choice but to walk towards them, "Are you workers here?"
I saw that in the darkness, those people also began to move, and with their movements, the light occasionally flickered, and Meng Wei's footsteps stopped, that was - that was a knife!
Not good!
Meng Wei took a few steps back, then turned around and ran towards his car with all his might, ten meters, five meters...... Meng Wei stretched out his hand to open the car door, but suddenly a cold light flashed in front of him, Meng Wei only felt a sharp pain in his arm, and when he looked at it again, his right arm had fallen to the ground.
"Ahh
Meng Wei howled and sat down on the ground, cold sweat instantly covering his forehead.
By this time, the men had already approached, and they were all holding silver steel knives in their hands.
Meng Wei covered the severed arm with his left hand, hoping to stop the blood spraying, he looked up at the masked people, knowing that he couldn't run today, so he asked, "You guys...... Who are you, and why did you kill me?"
The leader sneered, "You don't need to know about us, as for why we killed you...... As long as it is someone from the Xue Group, we will kill it. β
Meng Wei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled coldly, "Li Zihao's people?"
The leader nodded, "You're smart. If you don't have a last word, I'll send you on your way myself!"
Meng Wei closed his eyes in resignation, Son, I can't work for you anymore, you must take care!
Swish!
A cold light, a smear of blood. Meng Wei rolled over and fell to the ground, convulsed a few times, and died.
β¦β¦
The underworld.
In the depths of the Yama Hades Palace, the Immortal Venerable was dressed in a gray robe and sat upright in front of the chessboard, and there was a man in black in front of him who was also in the same posture, but compared to the Immortal Venerable's bowing head and pondering, the man in black was much more relaxed.
Mingzun thought for a long time, the chess pieces in his hand could not fall after all, so he could only admit defeat, he glanced at the man in black, there was a black brim to cover it, and he couldn't see his face.
"Sir, I haven't seen you for a few days, and your chess skills seem to have become more advanced, otherwise why would I still lose so many of you? It stands to reason that I should have improved. β
The man in black smiled, "The lord is improving, and the old man is not improving." If you want to win against the old man, you have to progress faster than the old man!"
Hades nodded, smiled, and asked the man in black, "How's it going?"
"Qixingtang and Earth Dragon Scales have been found, but there is still one thing missing when you want to refine the Divine Bead. The man in black was silent for a long time and said.
The Divine Bead is a legendary elixir that has entered the fifth realm of legends from the Zun Realm, the Greedy King Realm, which is extremely precious, and the refining method has been lost for thousands of years, but for some reason it was obtained by the man in black.
Hades asked.
"What is it?"
"Nine Lives Ice Lotus. It is said that its flowers have nine colors, only grow in the polar regions, and give birth to one petal in a hundred years, so it takes a full nine hundred years for the Nine Lives Ice Lotus to fully mature from germination. It can cure all injuries in the world, and it is a rare famous medicine. β
After hearing this, the Immortal Venerable was a little embarrassed, "But the polar region is located at the junction of humans and demons, and if you want to go over, I'm afraid it's very difficult!"
The man in black shook his head, "No, yes! Now that the seal has been broken, on the side of the demon clan, the Emperor Rakshasa will definitely take action, and the opportunity will appear at that time." β
"Oh?"
I saw the man in black whispering a few words in the ear of the Immortal Venerable, and the Immortal Venerable's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he turned his head to look at the man in black, "You mean-cooperate with him?"
The man in black nodded, "Well, that's good. Although I don't know the plan of the Emperor Rakshasa but it is well known that he wants to invade the human realm, when the time comes, you will take advantage of the situation to cooperate with him, and then wait for the opportunity to enter the pole to find the nine-colored ice lotus, once the plan is successful, I can refine the Divine Bead, and you can truly enter the legendary fifth realm, among the three realms, no one is invincible. β
Hades Venerable nodded with satisfaction, and arched his hand at the man in black, "It's still Mr.'s clever plan, with Mr. in charge, my ghost sea is endless, why worry about big things!"
The man in black waved his hand, "But before that, you still have to be fully prepared, you must find a way to open up the Necromantic Abyss, so that the people of the Phantom Clan can pass through, and then the disaster will arise, and the Terran will be destroyed after all!"
"Hmm!" Hades nodded, then glanced down at the black and white chessboard, "I'm really looking forward to that day, after entering the fifth realm, I want to go to the outside world to see, not just this small three realms." β
