"We have no hostility, and if you are forced to do so, we will have to do it. Gu Xuan swept around with murderous intent and said, "Maybe we will die here, but you clansmen, there will be many people who will bury us with us!"

The young beast claw man didn't know what he was talking about, but he was suppressed by Gu Xuan's killing intent and didn't make another move.

"Young people from the outside world are so impulsive in the war world, but they don't live long. Suddenly, a group of fluent Donghua came from the side.

The beast claw people there got out of the way, and a withered old man walked slowly, he was holding a wooden staff, but his hand was not a beast claw, but the same as Gu Xuan and them, a normal human being.

"Seniors, forgive the offense of the juniors, we are just waiting for self-preservation. Gu Xuan gave up his hand and was very polite to him, from now on, their hopes were all on this old man.

The old man's gaze looked at them, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, very talented, but here, it's not strong enough." ”

"Senior, can you tell us where we have offended the nobles?" Gu Xuan ignored his words, but asked rhetorically.

The withered old man turned around, pointed at several corpses outside with a wooden staff, and said, "These people, who have touched the divine fruit of our clan, really deserve to die, as for you, we are not sure if they are with them." ”

"Then I can tell my predecessors unambiguously that we don't know them, and although they are from the same place, we have never had contact with them, let alone seen the divine fruit of the nobility. Gu Xuan was neither humble nor arrogant, and explained slowly.

"There is no basis for what I say, but in the latter sentence, I understand that the divine fruit has been picked by us, and you will not be able to see it. ”

"What do you want?"

The old man smiled, but his smile was a little cruel: "If you eat their flesh, we will believe that you are not together." ”

"Seniors are difficult to be strong. Gu Xuan drank lightly, this is impossible to agree, let alone eating, it is disgusting to watch.

"If you eat their flesh, you can live, and this price is not a loss. The old man turned around and was about to leave.

"Seniors are slow, is there any other way?"

The old man paused, and after a while, he turned around and said, "Yes, you can defend our people against foreign enemies to prove your innocence." ”

"Defend against foreign enemies?" Gu Xuan frowned, his mind turned sharply, and after weighing it, he nodded and agreed, at least he had to stabilize these people before making plans.

"Okay, since you have agreed, then leave your blood oath on this blood sacrifice stone. With a smile, the withered old man took out a swarthy stone from his bosom, which was black and shiny, and the surface was covered with a layer of luster.

"Come, drop a drop of blood on it, and make your vows. The old man was kind and seductive, as if he was deliberately bewitching a few people.

"This can't be a trap, right?" Gu Xuan was unsure and didn't let them step forward to do it.

The withered old man snorted lightly, his eyes became cold: "You can think about it, if you don't make a blood oath, you will die here immediately, and we will never be soft on the enemy, even if it is a great price!"

He was categorical, his words were resolute, and he completely expressed their thoughts, so that Gu Xuan could understand the pros and cons.

After pondering, Gu Xuan stepped forward and said: "I am their senior brother, this matter is done by me alone, this is our final bottom line, after all, no one can be sure whether your stone will be a trap." ”

"Okay, it's up to you to fulfill the blood oath. Gu Xuan was surprised by the old man's simple reluctance, and with the solemnity between his eyebrows, he stepped forward, pierced one of his fingers with Tiangang Qi, and slowly dripped a drop of blood on the blood sacrifice stone.

Once the blood dripped down, it was quickly absorbed by the Blood Sacrifice Stone, and at this moment, Gu Xuan had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, and the source was the Blood Sacrifice Stone in front of him.

He could clearly feel that his connection with the Blood Sacrifice Stone was bound by an inexplicable rule, and if he avoided or failed to do it, then this rule would backfire on him.

"That's a good thing. Gu Xuan secretly said to himself, its effect was somewhat similar to the control method passed down among the Pheasant Clan.

However, the pheasant's approach can only restrain some people who have low cultivation and no firm will. If the person who is being restrained breaks this method, the pheasant will also be counterattacked. For this situation, the thing in front of him will not, as long as it is refined, it can be driven by it.

"Alright. The old man turned his hand and put away the blood sacrifice stone, and said with a kind smile to Gu Xuan: "The blood oath has been fulfilled, welcome to become a part of the Nine Shadows Clan, I am the Great Commander Li Ao." ”

"Nine Ghost Clan?" Gu Xuan showed a thoughtful look, as if he had heard of this clan somewhere.

"Yes, our Nine Shadows Clan was once a great family in ancient times, and there have been several masters of the world, the most famous one, you must have heard of it, his name is Chiyou. ”

"Demon God Chiyou?!" Gu Xuan exclaimed, and then he recovered, and said with a strange face: "I remember that the Demon God Chiyou is the ancestor of the Jiuli clan, not Jiuyou. ”

"Jiuli?" Li Ao said disdainfully: "What is Jiuli, it's just a branch of my clan, the great god Chiyou is a member of my Jiuyou clan." ”

Gu Xuan didn't argue with him, and continued to ask: "Since you are the descendant of Chiyou, why did you fall into such a field, you still need to sign an oath with us. ”

Referring to this, Li Ao sighed and said: "Since the fall of the Great God of Chiyou, a number of branch clans under the Nine Shadows Clan have rebelled one after another, and the masters of the clan have been killed and injured in order to quell the rebellion, and since then our clan has been in a slump. ”

He looked at the sky lonely, and said slowly: "This is in response to the will of heaven, when the great god of Chiyou absorbed the fortune of the Nine Shadows Clan, he became a master of the world, as soon as he died, the fortunes of the Clan were scattered, and the status of my Nine Shadows Clan plummeted." Those major clans who have long been afraid of my Nine Shadows Clan have been killed one after another, and in order to escape the doom of extermination, we can only hide here and multiply. ”

Listening to the unwillingness and resentment in his words, Gu Xuan didn't feel much of it. He just felt that it was not easy for a great god clan to fall into such a situation.

How many enemies does this have to make before it can be hunted down like this?

I have long heard that the demon god Chiyou is extremely ferocious, and he once stained the sky with demon blood. In the end, he was killed by Xuanyuan, the great emperor of the human race, who was held by the heaven-given immortal sword.

"Why are you different from them?" Gu Xuan looked at his hand, and then at the other beast claw people, the meaning was obvious.

"That's because they fell under the curse of the wizards of the Jiuli tribe, so they became like this, and in the entire clan, only I was not affected by the curse. Li Ao explained, revealing a lot of helplessness in his words.

"Wait, Jiuli Clan, the enemy you are talking about, it shouldn't be them, right?" Gu Xuan's heart jumped, and he felt that he might have been fooled.

Li Ao bared his teeth at him: "Yes, it's them, although they are hunted down and killed, they are just side branches, and the masters who have lost are far inferior to us, so there is still part of the heritage that can be preserved." They were originally a member of our clan, but they imposed this grudge on us, and they attacked us several times, but fortunately, they were spared because of the magic circle left by their ancestors to protect our clan. ”

Gu Xuan's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and he spoke: "How long is your so-called oath binding? It is impossible for us to stay here all the time to help you defend against the enemy." ”

"It won't be long, it's only a month. Li Ao said with a worried look: "The formation left by our ancestors has almost been wiped out, if it is not expected, the Jiuli clan will soon attack again." ”

"There are so many of you who can't stop it, what's the use of adding us?" Zhong Xi knocked his courage and said what was in his heart.

Li Ao smiled and said, "I didn't say that you could stop them. There were other meanings in his words, but they didn't say it.

"Come, honored guest of our people, please accept the hospitality of our people. Li Ao seemed to be a different person, and became enthusiastic about several people, he waved his hand and retreated from the half-orcs surrounding several people, and led them towards the village.

Gu Xuan didn't have a clue in his heart, and he might clearly notice that there was a mystery in this. While calmly responding, he instructed a few disciples to escape as soon as possible if they had the opportunity to join Gu Chi and them.

Gu Xuan and the others were taken to Li Ao's residence, not far from his room, there was a huge stone altar, and there were several statues of gods standing on the altar, all of them were fierce gods and evil gods, and they were demon gods.

Li Ao asked the people of the Jiuyou clan to serve a large amount of fruits and barbecue meat as food for Gu Xuan and the others.

Several of them were already monks, and they had already opened the valley, but when they smelled the aroma of barbecue, several disciples couldn't help but feast.

Gu Xuan was attracted by the sound of them gobbling up, and couldn't help but pick up a piece of meat as well, take a bite, and immediately felt that the meat in his mouth was fragrant, the fresh juice and meat were tender, and the taste was excellent.

"This is the most delicious five-poison clam, the taste is okay, right?" Li Ao smiled and watched them eat almost before he spoke.

"What? what kind of meat do you say this is?" Zhong Xi's expression, which was originally very satisfied, immediately turned frightened.

"Five poisonous clams, what's the matter?"

Vomit!

Zhong Xi and a disciple all ran out in an instant, spitting wildly outside. Hearing this voice, Gu Xuan's face also began to tremble.

Li Ao wondered, "What's wrong with these two little friends, the Five Poison Flower Clam is the best food in our clan, and he is extremely spiritual, which is very good for you cultivators." ”

Hearing this, Gu Xuan's heart became more comfortable, and he glanced at Sikong Shi who was sitting on the side without moving, and then turned his head and asked, "Dare to ask the Great Commander, haven't the people in your clan ever practiced?"

Li Ao shook his head and sighed: "Back then, in order to escape the pursuit of other gods, we destroyed all the classics that the clan had time to take away in the future, plus the living fossils that were successful at that time were killed one by one, and now only some superficial methods and fragments have been handed down. ”
