Chapter 19: The Shadow in the Cave
"η‘Ώ-η‘Ώ-"
The sound of countless rubbles falling continued, causing the mountain to shake from time to time.
A strong and gloomy wind blew in, causing the dust to quickly dissipate, and a huge black hole appeared in front of me.
Ling Tianzong was stunned, but Chu Xingqiao looked at his hands excitedly and muttered:
"I'm finally out! Chu Lao! β
After speaking, the corners of Chu Xingqiao's mouth curled up proudly.
Ling Tian turned his head in a daze, he couldn't believe that the Wind Thunder Prison, which had terrified the Witch Spirit Clan, which was so strong that it had almost no weaknesses, had been destroyed by a thin girl!
Monsters, monsters!
Ling Tian muttered to himself, frowning tightly.
At this time, Chu Xingqiao suddenly said:
"Don't be stunned, boy, the Zhongquan Conference is about to begin, don't you want the seal of the Beastmaster?"
"Huh?"
Ling Tianzong was stunned by these words.
"Y-How do you know?"
"Hmph."
Chu Xingqiao snorted coldly.
"You idiot, your plan has been seen through by everyone, otherwise why do you think I'm in such a place?"
"You mean...... Are you saying that my second brother knew that I was attending the Zhongquan Conference because of the Seal of the Beastmaster, so he used you to stop me? β
Ling Tianzong was as surprised as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Chu Xingqiao nodded helplessly and then asked:
"Ling Tianzong, are you sure that you can save your mother by getting the Beastmaster's Seal? Is she really alive......"
Before Chu Xingqiao's words were finished, Ling Tianzong immediately interrupted:
"How do you know about my mother? Who the hell are you? I looked at you very strangely just now, and I could vaguely feel that you were fundamentally different from the Chu Xingqiao just now! β
Chu Xingqiao was stunned and said, this nerd, he still cares about this at such a critical moment!
But being seen through, she smiled helplessly and explained:
"Boy, even if you have good eyesight, since you know that I am not the girl from Chu Xingqiao, then I will open the skylight and say something bright, I am indeed not Chu Xingqiao just now, but...... It doesn't make a difference, but the difference is that I can help you get the Mark of the Beastmaster! β
"You?" Ling Tianzong looked at Chu Xingqiao hesitantly, obviously he didn't believe it, because he knew that even if he could win the championship in the Zhongquan Conference, the Seal of the Beast King was still in the hands of the human nobles, how could they hand over the Seal of the Beast King so easily.
Chu Xingqiao seemed to see his thoughts, and saw her smile and said:
"Whether the human race will hand over the seal of the beast king to the demon clan depends on your father's ability to negotiate, that's not something you need to worry about at all.
Besides, my identity is a demon slave dedicated to the demon race by the human race, if I can show my strength and be recognized by the human nobles at the Zhongquan Conference, then I believe that the human being who is a demon slave will be the palm seal messenger of the Beast King, and the two races will have no objections!
And to tell you the truth, whether it's a human race or a demon race, when it comes to the game, none of you are my opponent! β
Chu Xingqiao's self-confidence made Ling Tianzong a little uncomfortable, because with his ability to the nobles and ministers of the various tribes of the demon clan, Chu Xingqiao's current strength did not have any advantage!
"Just you?"
"That's right! It's up to me, believe it or not, but you'd better not think about competing with me at the moment, or save your strength to help me recover! β
"Help? Didn't you say that no one is your opponent! What else do I need to do? β
Seeing that Ling Tianzong was a little impatient, Chu Xingqiao suddenly glared at her and said unhappily:
"No matter how powerful I am, I'm borrowing my body to return the favor now! You bastard, don't you know the difference between the demon race and humans, your physical strength can be replenished by energy crystals, and I am now living in a mortal body, or a body without spiritual cultivation, how can I exert my full ability!
Do you want the seal of the beastmaster, just obediently obey my orders if you want to, where is there so much nonsense! β
After speaking, Chu Xingqiao sighed and walked towards the interior of the pitch-black mountain.
The interior of the mountain is empty and quiet, and at a glance, it is pitch black and you can't see anything.
Ling Tian, who had been scolded for no reason, was stunned before he came back to his senses, although he also had a bitter stomach, but he was unreasonable, and he didn't know how to look at Chu Xingqiao's face, he just couldn't be tough,
But it seems that it was this scolding that made him face up to the reason why he participated in the competition.
Also! I'm not just here to get the seal of the Beastmaster, since she can handle it, I'll just listen to her, but......
Ling Tianzong seemed to have doubts again, but as soon as he looked up and found that the people of Chu Xingqiao had almost disappeared into the darkness, he immediately followed, but as soon as he walked into the dark mountain, he remembered his fear of the dark, oh no!
"Wait for me!"
The farther he walked into the mountain, the weaker the light became, and every step he took made a loud noise, which seemed to make Ling Tianzong a little timid, only to see him quickly catch up with Chu Xingqiao, and regardless of red tape such as the difference between men and women, he grabbed her arm.
"Wait for me, IβI'm a little afraid of the dark!"
Chu Xingqiao glanced sideways, and could vaguely see Ling Tianzong's outline, sensing Ling Tianzong's true heart, she smiled silently and joked:
"Boy, you are so cowardly, how will you protect your woman in the future!"
"Cut!" Ling Tianzong replied nonchalantly and added:
"What does it have to do with you if you don't protect a woman who doesn't protect me!" Ling Tianzong retorted.
"Then I'm not your woman, what are you pulling me for! Go away! β
Saying that, Chu Xingqiao pushed Ling Tianzong away with all his might, but who knew that Ling Tianzong hugged him again and said:
"Okay, you're you!"
After saying that, Ling Tianzong instead hugged his arms tighter, because he suddenly felt a yin wind blowing through him, and this feeling was enough to make a person's hairs stand on end.
Chu Xingqiao felt Ling Tianzong's fear, so he didn't break free anymore, and let him hug him.
And just then, suddenly a strange sound came from the direction directly in front of them.
"Ahem-cough-cough! βββ
The voice was like the sound of an old man coughing because of his lack of energy.
"Who!! Who's there! β
Ling Tianzong asked in a voice that was almost trembling.
"Ahem! - Ahemββ! β
No one responded, but the voice rang out again.
"Chu Xingqiao!"
Ling Tianzong suddenly grabbed Chu Xingqiao and didn't let her move forward, but Chu Xingqiao gently patted his hand and comforted:
"Don't be afraid! It's just a perennial evil spirit that doesn't see the light of day. β
Evil, evil spirits! Ling Tianzong couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this word, and immediately stood still.
Because he knows that the so-called evil spirit is the goblin who has experienced immortality for ten thousand years, although their thinking is not as smart as that of the demon humans, but when it comes to being wild and powerful, hundreds of demon people can't afford to provoke a goblin, and this goblin lives in this kind of perennial place where there is no light all year round, and it is extremely angry, if they go further and accidentally wake up the goblin, it will be dead!
"Don't move!"
Ling Tianzong pulled down the Chu Xingqiao vigorously while lowering his voice and said.
Chu Xingqiao sensed Ling Tianzong's fear and stood still, but then she turned her head with a wicked laugh and said:
"The conference is about to start, and my guess is that this guy is about to wake up, are you going to stand here and wait for him to wake up, or are you going to run away with me now?"
