Chapter 109: The Needle of the Heart
After a quarter of an hour of arguing, the two old men finally stopped.
But neither of them was convinced of each other, and the two glared at each other.
After a slow time, Xiao Batian said with a playful smile at this time: "Isn't it too cheap for us to do this, this kid, why don't you let him win this game first?"
The blue-robed old man nodded thoughtfully and said, "You mean to use his current power to move Dabi forward, who has been pushed back?"
"Yes, tomorrow!"
"What, tomorrow, this kid just had a big fight today, if the remaining two players on our side don't make it to the end, I'm afraid he won't even have time to recover. ”
"No, I believe this kid, have you forgotten that I have found a way to rescue your granddaughter in the Library?"
"Old thing, you're embarrassed to say it!" The old man in the blue robe glared angrily again, obviously ashamed of Xiao Batian's use of his grandson as a booster.
Xiao Batian smiled and said: "Ghost elder, don't be angry, the reason why I did this is to use his current prestige to once again raise the Dabi of the Golden Immortal Academy to a supreme point, you also know that this time we can only win and not lose, and second, I think those old things in the Western Department also know what happened today, I'm afraid that there will be some action in secret, and from tomorrow, I will catch them off guard!"
After a long while, the blue-robed old man nodded helplessly, and said to Huang Cong, who was fainting on the bed: "Boy, if you can win the championship in one fell swoop this time, no matter what happens to my Ling'er in the future, I will also recognize your son-in-law." ”
Xiao Batian said again: "Don't be so pessimistic. I don't know what this kid has been through during the time he disappeared, but I can tell. He is far more simple than we think, as for the fountain of life and the tree of life. I think he'll find it. ”
"I hope so!" the blue-robed old man sighed deeply.
After a while, the two glanced at each other, and together they exerted their strength, and Huang Cong, who fainted on the bed, was suddenly wrapped in a majestic Yuan force, and then suspended in the air, and suddenly the surface of the entire body was shining brightly and crystal clear. If outsiders saw it at this moment, they would be shocked, because the two old men were spending their life's work to repair the dark wounds hidden in the deepest part of the body of the young man in the air.
The time of a stick of incense has passed. The blue-robed old man suddenly opened his eyes and said: "This kid is really not simple, he was injured by the cultivation of the Martial King today, and the injuries in his body recovered so quickly, I'm afraid that without the help of you and me, he would be fine!"
Xiao Batian also felt the abnormality in Huang Cong's body, and said with a shiny look in his eyes: "In that case, why don't you and I thoroughly help this kid wash his body, so that his cultivation can go further, how about it?"
"Good. That's what I mean!" said the blue-robed old man's face.
Just when the two of them once again used their powerful skills to enter all parts of Huang Cong's body, an abrupt scene appeared, only to see that these two external forces were instantly absorbed by his dantian, and they were silent.
"Strange. How can this be?" The two of them frowned deeply, and the skill they had just performed fell into Huang Cong's body, and there was a feeling like a mud cow entering the sea, and then they deepened the strength in their hands again.
But the blindness of the effort is the same as before. This incoming Yuan Force disappeared without a trace, and at this time, the two of them finally felt abnormal. Xiao Batian said in a deep voice: "Ghost Lao, hurry up and collect the work." ”
As the two of them instantly retracted their strength. Huang Cong landed smoothly on the bed again, still in a fainting, completely unaware of anything that was happening at the moment.
Xiao Batian's eyes had a hint of strangeness in his eyes, and he said: "There is indeed something strange in his body, as if he is hiding something, he is rapidly absorbing the skills of you and me, if we are a step late just now, I am afraid the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
The ghost elder also had a solemn look on his face, he had never seen such a strange thing in his life.
After staring at Huang Cong on the bed for a while, Xiao Batian waved his hand and said: "That's it, this kid has exceeded our cognition, I think he knows it in his heart, from the time he revealed Ling'er's matter to me before, I already felt that he was hiding something, since he didn't say it, he must have his intentions!"
With that, he turned his head and left, and the old ghost said, "Where are you going?"
Xiao Batian turned his head and said with a smile: "Where else can you go, go back to sleep, but you can't go, remember to do things beautifully tomorrow, your granddaughter can still count on this kid!"
"You old guy" The ghost old man looked at each other angrily, and before he finished speaking, Xiao Batian had already disappeared into the darkness, and he could only sigh helplessly.
In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone on Huang Cong's face through the window, he opened his eyes comfortably, and instantly felt that the suppressed pain in his chest disappeared, and then he saw a bad old man waiting by his bedside.
When he saw the identity of the old man, his heart was full of embarrassment and incomparably guilty, the old man in front of him was none other than Ghost Ling'er's grandfather, the supreme elder of the Golden Immortal Academy.
The ghost old man also opened his eyes at this moment, to be precise, he hadn't slept all night, and he had been thinking about how to open this mouth in his mind, and when he saw Huang Cong wake up, he immediately said angrily: "Your kid is still alive, since you are alive, hurry up, the old man wants to find you to duel." ”
"Duel?" Huang Cong's head short-circuited for a while, but he was instantly relieved, understanding that the old man in front of him must have learned about his granddaughter's sacrifice for himself from Xiao Lao's mouth, and the anger in his heart was hard to dissipate, and judging from the expression on his face, this did not seem like a joke.
At this moment, he didn't know how to deal with it, if he could, he was willing to give his life to the old man in front of him, but he still had to complete something, that is, to find for Ling'er with his own hands which two holy relics that could heal him, so he couldn't die at the moment.
"Why, boy, are you still unwilling? You hurt my granddaughter like that, so hard to make the old man angry?" the old ghost roared again.
Huang Cong said in a low voice: "Grandpa, it's not me"
Before he finished speaking, the ghost elder immediately interrupted: "Don't call me grandpa. I don't have your grandson!"
After a long while, Huang Cong said in a deep voice: "No matter what. I should call you grandpa, if you are angry in your heart. You can punch me a few times, I just hope you can leave me alive, because I have to take full responsibility for Ling'er's affairs, as long as you give me time, I will definitely return your granddaughter to you in good condition. ”
At this moment, his eyes were already rosy, and the expression on his face was extremely sincere, and when the ghost old man saw this, he knew that the play was almost done, and then said: "If you have a way to cure my granddaughter." Old man, I can not kill you at this moment, as for if you are really cured in the future, you don't have to return it to me, you can keep it for yourself!"
Huang Cong couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't know what the old man's last words meant, but from the fact that he didn't sleep in front of his bed all night just to wait for him to open his eyes to duel, he was obviously really angry. Otherwise, he would have killed himself with one slap. Obviously, he wanted to show his guilt in front of him.
Thinking of this, he not only sighed, but then said in surprise: "By the way, how did I pass out last night?"
The largest martial arts arena in the entire Golden Immortal Academy was full of people. Everyone heard early in the morning that Dabi of the Golden Immortal Academy was arranged to this day, although there were many people who were puzzled, but for them. It is most important to dare to see this battle early.
Of course, there are still some curious people who ask around about it. It seems that the Eastern Department has been pushing the date of the competition back, while the Western Department wants to end the competition early. However, in the end, the Eastern Department was forced to compromise under the pressure of the Western Department.
In an attic of the Western Department, the three brothers surnamed Shi sat high in the lobby, Shi Ziling said: "Why did we always hope to end this big competition early, but Xiao Batian, that old guy, has always disagreed, and fought with us, so he had to postpone the date of the competition again and again, why did he suddenly compromise at this moment, will there be any changes?"
Shi Zixiong said: "You are too worried, as far as I know, that young man from the Eastern Department only had a big battle yesterday, even if he recovers immediately, what can he do, we don't have to worry about this time at all, today's duel is the best, isn't that young man in the limelight now, just enough to thwart him, to boost the morale of my Western Department!"
When the outside world was full of speculation, Huang Cong wandered around the Golden Immortal Academy like an idler, but found that there were surprisingly few students in the academy today, because the place where he rested yesterday was where the ghost Ling'er lived before, and he deviated a lot from the martial arts arena, so he didn't hear too much movement at the moment, thinking that it was just a disciple drill in his usual days.
After passing through a few alleys, he came to the place where Xiao Qingsong lived, and it happened that Xiao Qingsong was at the door, and when he saw Huang Cong's arrival, he took the initiative to say: "Hurry up and go in, my father is waiting for you inside." ”
Without any hesitation, he immediately pushed open the door and walked in, Xiao Batian was leisurely sipping tea in the lobby, and saw Huang Cong coming and said: " As for the kind of holy relics that Ling'er needs, I think I am also powerless, boy, it's not that I don't help you, the Golden Immortal Academy has the rules of the Golden Immortal Academy, and some ancient classics have been handed down from a very early period, which are extremely precious, in order to prevent thieves from stealing the forbidden land that are hidden in the Golden Immortal Academy, if you want to open the door of the forbidden place, you must have two keys, and I have one in the Oriental Department, as for the remaining one, I think you can guess it is there. ”
Although Huang Cong knew the meaning of his words, he still asked, "How can I get another key?"
Xiao Batian didn't rush to answer, but put down the teacup and said slowly: "With our current relationship with the Western Department, the other party will definitely not lend us easily, of course, there is another way, that is, you win this big competition, and when my son Qingsong is completely in power, you can take back the key, so as to open the door to the forbidden land." ”
Seeing Huang Cong's unpredictable face, Xiao Batian said again: "Boy, don't think so badly, I know you promised me that I would do my best in this competition, and I didn't mean to embarrass you, and what I just said was the truth, think about it, when did I lie to you?"
After a while, Huang Cong's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice: "When will the final competition start?"
"How can you be confident that you can win?" Xiao Batian had a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Whoever stands in my way will kill whom!"
Huang Cong finished saying this coldly, and at this moment, his momentum climbed to a supreme point, and the sun, moon and stars were like grains of sand in his eyes.
"Okay, just wait for your words!" (To be continued.) )
