Chapter 705: Lord of the Styx
Chapter 705 Styx Lord Liang Xi touched his nose. Calmly smiled: "You are the person who has lived here since childhood, you don't know, how can I know?"
Seeing Liang Xi calmly teasing, Qing Yue's heart also calmed down suddenly, and he looked towards the middle of the river with questions.
The chains were stretched straight and hung wet on the water, as if they would be broken at any moment.
"There seems to be a very heavy thing hanging down there, are you sure that the stone bridge was not hoisted up by this bronze chain?" Liang Xi asked as he looked at Qing Yue.
Qingyue shook his head with great certainty.
As the two spoke, the puddle in the middle of the river grew a little bigger, like the mouth of a man who was dying of thirst greedy for river water, and kept pouring the water of the river that was dyed red around him.
The surface of the water kept tumbling upwards, and it was clear that something was about to come up from underwater.
"It's out!" Qingyue exclaimed, hugging Liang Xi's arm tightly.
A rhinoceros horn-like thing was slowly emerging from a puddle.
This was followed by a broad dark red forehead, and rounded eyes glowing with a faint green light.
In less than ten seconds, a giant with a dark red body and a height of nearly three meters appeared on the surface of the water, and with his appearance, the puddle was also filled.
The giant had a long, curved horn in the middle of his forehead, no expression on his face, and his whole body was naked, covered with high, bulging muscles, and only the lower half of his body was haphazardly wrapped in a layer of leather cloth.
What made Liang Xi particularly concerned was that this giant held a trident in his hand that was one end longer than him.
The trident shimmered with a faint blue light, and the energy that came out of its body caused a small whirlpool in the surrounding rivers.
The giant had no pupils, only green glowing eyes and looked towards Liang Xi and Qing Yue.
Swept by those strange eyes, Liang Xi and Qingyue couldn't help but feel that the hairs on their bodies stood up.
"Who is he?" Liang Xi asked with a frown.
"I don't know, I've never seen it. Qing Yue shook his head, and there was a puzzled look on his face, "I've never seen him before, and how could anyone be immersed in the Yellow Spring Styx unscathed, the corrosiveness of this water is beyond human imagination!"
Being stared at by the giant's green eyes, Liang Daguan was unhappy for a while, so he glared back at the other party without fear, his eyes were a little more vicious than the other party.
As if he didn't expect anyone to dare to stare at him like this, a look of surprise flashed in the giant's green eyes.
Looking at the giant for a moment, Liang Xi suddenly grinned: "Qingyue, you are wrong, he is not unscathed." β
"Huh?" Qing Yue let out a puzzled voice, looked at Liang Xi's line of sight, and suddenly covered his mouth with two small paws in surprise, "He, his skin!"
After Liang Xi's reminder, Qing Yue realized that the dark red color on the giant's body was actually not his skin color, but because he had no skin all over his body, this dark red was the color of his muscles, and the faint blue and white was the color of the green tendons and bones hidden under the muscles!
"Yes!" Liang Xi said with a smile, "I really don't know who this person is, even the skin of his whole body has been burned off, and he still has to soak in this river, you see that he seems to be stepping on something, that kind of thing is pulled up by the pull of two bronze chains, and he suffered so much and did not die, I don't know what crime he committed in his life." β
Hearing Liang Xi's analysis, Qingyue also felt that it made sense.
After peeling the skin, he soaked in this Yellow Spring Styx, and let this person endure the pain of skinning for thousands of years, and this person may have been a very evil person in his life.
Liang Xi and Qing Yue were guessing the identity of this person and the reason for his sudden appearance, when the dark red giant slowly opened his mouth, revealing the misaligned teeth inside and said, "Who are you?"
The voice was emotionless, as if it had been struck with two pieces of metal.
Hearing his words, Liang Xi and Qing Yue were stunned at the same time.
The other party's pronunciation was jerky and difficult to understand, and it was an ancient language, and it took Liang Xi and Qing Yue a moment to realize what he was asking.
When there was no response, the giant asked again, "Who are you?"
This time, the sound was much louder than before, and the sound wave seemed to be the substance, splitting the river in front of him, and the qi rushed until a meter in front of Liang Xi before dissipating.
"Who are you, why are you in the Yellow Springs Styx!" Liang Xi didn't answer, and looked at the giant's green eyes without fear.
Neither party can figure out the details of the other party at this time, so they must not be weaker than the other party in terms of momentum.
Hearing Liang Xi's question, the muscles on the giant's face trembled slightly, revealing an expression similar to a smile: "I, I am the Lord of the River Styxβ"
Hearing this, Qing Yue's face suddenly showed a look of horror: "How could it be him!"
"Who is he, the master of the River Styx?" Liang Xi asked, lowering his head.
Qing Yue's eyes were fixed on the Lord of the River Styx, and he replied quickly with a fan of his mouth: "You are right, he is the person who controls this Yellow Spring River Styx, or rather, he is the guide here who guides the undead to reincarnation, but he didn't disappear a long time ago!
Qing Yue saw the confused look on Liang Xi's face, and hurriedly continued to explain: "Every Yellow Spring Leader has a very short lifespan, and they know that after their life limit is approaching, they will take the initiative to sink into the Yellow Spring Styx at the last moment, and merge their bodies with the Styx, but there has been no new Styx Lord in the past few hundred years, so it will lead to an increase in the number of souls in this vicinity." But who is he, the first Lord of the Styx?"
As if hearing Qing Yue's words, Lord Styx looked at Liang Xi and said, "I don't know how many they are, I only remember that a power poured into my body, and I woke up, do you need my guidance?"
Speaking of this, the two black holes on Lord Styx's face, which should be like nostrils, fanned slightly, and asked suspiciously: "You are a living person?"
Liang Xi didn't answer his question, but glanced at the trident in Lord Styx's hand from time to time, and said to himself: "Lord Styx, why does this name sound so familiar? I don't know why, when I heard this name, I faintly felt the urge to rob. β
Hearing Liang Xi's words, Qing Yue was slightly stunned, then reacted and said, "I remember, when you handed over the Thunder Light Blade to Yang Fan that day, Sang Zhulan mentioned the Lord of the Styx. β
After Qingyue's reminder, Liang Xi also remembered this incident.
He said that the only thing that could compete with the Thunder Blade was the Trident of the Lord of the Styx. Liang Xi touched his chin, and suddenly laughed, "The weapon that Sang Zhulan is good at seems to be the trident." β
"What do you want to do Liang Xi!" Qing Yue sensed the bad thoughts of Liang Daguan, and hurriedly strangled his plan in the cradle, "No one has ever fought against the Lord of the Styx River who leads the way of Huangquan, he can control the Styx River that runs through the entire world behind the Ancient Bronze Gate, his strength may not be below you, or even higher than you, you better not provoke him casually." β
Liang Xi glanced at Qingyue sideways, and said hesitantly: "I'm just talking, don't be nervous, I still love the weak very much, sweeping the floor is afraid of hurting the lives of ants, and cherishing the moth gauze lamp is my true portrayal!"
"Weak-" Qing Yue was speechless for a while, and said in his heart: "Lord Styx shouldn't be weak, right?"
