Chapter 693: Escape
A strong black glow enveloped the desert, turning the entire region into darkness.
A man appears in the middle of the darkness.
He wore a black robe covered in runes and a black hat with a low brim that obscured his face.
In the entire area, only the location of the Scorpion Demon Empress has not been swallowed by the darkness.
The man looked around, and his attention was focused on the Scorpion Demon Empress.
"What about people?" He asked.
The Scorpion Demon Empress covered her mouth with her hands, yawned and said, "You're asking me?" β
"Nonsense, I'm naturally asking you." The man said angrily.
The Scorpion Demon Empress tilted her head and thought for a while before saying, "Well, I was still here just now, and now I don't know where to go." β
"You dare to trick me?"
"I'm telling the truth."
"Alright, alright, alright, wait until I find that card, and then I'll talk about you."
The man stomped his feet and was about to leave.
Suddenly, his face changed, and he waved his hand and threw out seven or eight cards.
Layers of light and shadow enveloped him, forming dark walls, several large sturdy shields, an armoured giant guard, and a translucent dark shield.
- Boom!
A streamer of light stabbed at him with lightning speed.
In front of the streamer, the walls crumbled, all the shields shattered, and the giant guards were pierced, only the last translucent shield could withstand the streamer.
The black-robed man was blasted out dozens of meters away in one fell swoop.
He half-crouched on the ground in embarrassment, looking up at the shield.
A sharp tail spike poked into the shield and sank in.
It seems that only a little bit of a tail spike can pierce through the defensive shield.
"Scorpion Emperor, did you take that card? Do you want an all-out war? β
The man's expression became solemn, and he took out a card from the void and showed it to the Scorpion Empress.
There was nothing else on that card but a horn.
War Horn.
The Scorpion Demon Empress slowly withdrew her tail thorn and said in a cold tone: "It's useless for you to call anyone, anyone who reproduces the scene just now will think that I am defending my majesty." β
"Grab that card, and tell me about it?" She mimicked the other man's tone.
"How do you guess the gray hand will decide? I'd love to have a duel with you, and I promise you'll be eaten little by little until you're completely done, and I'll make you unconscious. β
The Scorpion Empress wagged her tail as she spoke.
Her upper body is charming and moving, but her lower body is like a scorpion.
The razor-sharp tail spine on her back was always pointed at the opponent's heart, and it seemed that she would strike again at any moment.
"Humph! Since you dare to touch that card, then you are the one who broke the agreement, and you are the culprit of the outbreak of war. The man said reluctantly.
The Scorpion Empress laughed.
"I said how could that card sneak out on its own, it turns out that the gray hand actually sent you to guard it with such a brainless idiot, so it's no wonder that someone else." She said.
"When I get the evidence, you won't be able to laugh." The man said in a deep voice.
He has regained his composure and has taken out a card.
"The spell is repeated."
The man let out a low sigh and immediately activated the card.
I saw that in the darkness around me, a ray of light formed a card phantom.
Suddenly, the phantoms of dozens of cards appeared in the void.
The man walked over to each card illusion and took a closer look.
War dolls, dark scimitars, true red magic spears, and some equipment cardsβevery card the girl has ever used appears in front of the man in the form of a magic remnant.
He looked through them one by one, and finally saw the cards.
"The Abyss of Sin SummonsβThe King Descends."
The man's face changed.
Only then did he figure out that the Scorpion Demon Empress had been summoned.
This moment completely proves the innocence of the Scorpion Demon Empress.
Thinking back to the tone of his previous speech, it was indeed a little offended to the other party.
Butβ
How could the Scorpion Witch Empress do something inconsequential?
The man looked at the Scorpion Demon Empress and said gloomily, "The summoning card has disappeared, but you are still here, why is that?" β
The Scorpion Demon Empress stared at each other: "Are you questioning me?" β
The man endured it, and finally changed his tone and said, "May I ask why you are still here, what is the reason for you?" β
The Scorpion Demon Empress said, "Pig brain, don't you understand this? Because I inhabit this desert myself, where else can I go? β
The man froze.
It's over, everything on the other side is seamless.
It dawned on him that the other party had been delaying enough time for the card, whether or not the other party had done it.
On my own, I'm afraid I can't track that card anymore.
He sighed deeply.
That card was crucial, but it suddenly disappeared, and it disrupted his position.
It's also to blame myself for being too flustered for a while, so I was toyed with by this scorpion.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and immediately took out a card and activated it.
Soon, a deep male voice sounded from the card.
"Did you find it?"
"Tell you, that card summoned the Scorpion Queen to stop me, so I haven't found it yet." The man glared fiercely at the Scorpion Demon Empress and said.
"The Scorpion Empress?"
There was a moment of silence on the other side.
Suddenly, a book pops out of the card and flies in front of the Scorpion Queen.
The Scorpion Empress smiled and pressed her hand to the cover of the book.
The book immediately shouted, "The agreement has not been damaged in any way, the Empress has only been summoned!" β
The man immediately panicked, knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Greyhand, she attacked me!" β
"We'll talk about that later, and you'll have to get that card back right away." A deep male voice on the other side.
"Yes!" The man hurriedly responded.
In front of him, another book appeared.
The book opened automatically, revealing a card embedded in each page.
"Here's the five hundred and thirty-seven card bindings I set up on that card, now I'm ready for you to use it, go grab that card right away!"
"Yes!"
The man was holding the book and immediately flew into the air and disappeared.
However, the card he used to connect with still didn't work.
The man named Grey Hand said solemnly, "Empress, I must tell you solemnly that that card is very important to me, and I hope you understand this." β
"What does this have to do with me? I was walking in the desert when I was suddenly summoned and I was still inexplicable. The Scorpion Demon Empress laughed.
Gray Hand was silent for a moment, and then laughed, "I don't think you'll interfere with my card trial, after all, it's my personal matter, and you're a noble king. β
"Of course, you take care of your black market, and we live our lives here in peace, which has been said a long time ago."
"Exactly." Grey Hand agreed.
"But your apprentice has the natural arrogance of a card master, and I think that will cause him to become more and more stupid."
The Scorpion Demon Empress continued, "It's pretty obvious that interfering in your affairs won't bring any benefit to our Sins, so you should have trusted me a long time ago instead of the idiot who screwed everything up. β
There was silence over there, and suddenly sighed: "No way, I have some things in my hands, and I can't rush back for a while, so I can only let the disciple preside over the black market, who knows that he is so useless." β
Gray Hand's tone was irritated.
He had already seen those spell tracks, and he knew that the Scorpion Demon Empress had indeed been summoned.
Even the letter of agreement between the two parties did not go wrong.
And everything is as the other party said, blocking yourself will not bring any benefit to the other party.
A character like the Scorpion Demon Empress has no huge benefits, and she doesn't even bother to look at you.
Soβ
The whole thing was indeed messed up by his useless apprentice.
It's stupid, card master, though he has been above many classes from the beginning, if he doesn't stay humble and calm, sooner or later he will never be able to advance again because of his self-righteousness.
As an apprentice, he always thinks too highly of his identity.
He must accept the harshest reprimand and regain a sober understanding of the truth and the law!
It's a pity that he is still outside the hundreds of millions of world layers, and he can't come back for a while.
Whether it's teaching an apprentice a lesson, or looking for that important card, you can't do anything yourself.
So I've always been as calm as a gray hand, but I also feel a little bored at the moment.
"If my disciple is rude, I apologize to you on his behalf." Gray hand.
The Scorpion Demon Empress said: "It's okay, it's all a trivial matter, I just hope you don't call me at random anymore, after all, I also have a lot of things to do." β
Gray Hand paused, and his tone softened a little: "Please rest assured, I have set up hundreds of binding techniques on that card, and I will definitely take it back and keep a close watch on it, and it will not bother you again." β
"Yes, that's good." The Scorpion Demon Empress said with satisfaction.
"Then goodbye."
"Goodbye."
The card disappears.
All spells disappear.
The Scorpion Empress stood there silently, as if lost in thought.
Good for a while.
She sighed softly and said, "I can only help you so much." β
β¦β¦
In the middle of the desert.
Gu Qingshan was still running.
Although there was nothing to chase after him, his heart was full of depression and nervousness.
If such a card can be imprisoned, the opponent's strength must be extremely strong, and even invincible.
If the card is really important, the opponent won't be left with just one means.
At a certain moment, Gu Qingshan's expression moved.
The sense of urgency in his heart suddenly soared, and a vague intent to die quietly appeared in his spiritual awareness.
Compared to other professions, it is very difficult for a cultivator to advance through the Heavenly Tribulation.
But there is also a good thing about the practitioner, that is, the spiritual sense is very sharp, and it can predict some vague situations in advance.
Although Gu Qingshan's position now was quite far away from the place where he fought before, Gu Qingshan vaguely understood in his heart that things had just begun.
Something, it's coming after you.
Gu Qingshan suddenly stopped.
He slapped the bag and released the card.
As soon as the card appeared, it turned into a girl in white.
"You scout with the spell cards to see if we're safe." Gu Qingshan Road.
"Not at all," the girl said anxiously, "I have been subjected to many card-based imprisoning techniques, and among them there must be a method of tracking. β
Gu Qingshan took out the card of "Blood Sea God" and asked, "I give you this card, can you remove those imprisoning and tracking techniques?" β
"I need time." The girl said.
