Chapter 965: Identifying Identity
In the valley, the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
Everyone's eyes fell on the gray-robed old man, his breathing was short, and his eyes were full of solemnity.
Hit Ye Chen's arrow, he didn't die, he was only slightly injured, the strength of the gray-robed old man was far beyond everyone's expectations, even if he lost four Saint Dao powerhouses, with him alone, he could kill five people, but it took a little time.
"You leave the valley first, and I will cut it off. At this moment, Yan Xiu's eyes sank, and he spit out an inaudible sound, which made everyone's hearts sink, Yan Xiu wanted one person to resist the gray-robed old man in exchange for the escape of the four people?
"I'll help you, Su Qingxue and Ye Yao, the two of you protect Ye Chen. Nie Feng stepped forward, looked at Yan Xiu, and both smiled lightly, his figure flickered, blocking in front of Ye Chen and the others, and the aura on his body raged unreservedly.
Ye Chen is now in a weak state, it is difficult to fight, with the strength of the four people, it is almost impossible to break out of the encirclement, with the five of them all dying here, it is better for the two to break the time, and let the three of Ye Chen escape.
This method is very helpless, and it is very likely to sacrifice two people, but it is better than five people dying here.
"Is there really no other way?" There was a hint of sparkle in Su Qingxue's eyes, the five of them had just met, and now they were going to face separation, and it might be that heaven and man were separated forever, it was too cruel, she couldn't accept it.
Ye Chen and Ye Yao also had a difficult look on their faces, no one expected that as soon as they stepped into the valley, they would be intercepted and killed by such a strong person.
Turning his eyes, he saw that the gray-robed old man had already walked in front of everyone, the palm of his right hand, the blood hole was hideous, and there were blood dripping down, dyeing the ground blood-red, bowing his head, and not speaking, so that the entire space froze, like the calm before the storm.
Poof!
A muffled sound sounded, as if it was a thunderous explosion, which made the hearts of the five people tremble, however, when they saw the next scene, everyone's eyes fell into a daze at this moment, their heads were blank, and they were stunned in place, unable to move.
In the field of vision, the gray-robed old man took a step forward, and without warning, he suddenly knelt down, bowed his back slightly, almost touching his head to the ground, and at the same time said loudly in an extremely respectful voice: "Old slave Qin Blood, knock on the king, and ask the king for forgiveness!"
Poof!
Two more muffled sounds sounded, and the two men in black standing not far away also knelt down on one knee, their heads firmly pressed against the ground.
Such a change was so abrupt that everyone was caught off guard.
A moment ago, they thought that it was impossible to escape this catastrophe, and even Yan Xiu and Nie Feng were ready to sacrifice themselves so that Ye Chen and the three of them could leave safely, how heroic and helpless,
But at this moment, the gray-robed old man, along with the two men in black, they all knelt down, and shouted the word king, there was no anger on their bodies, let alone killing intent, only the courtiers faced the king's respect, and even awe.
"How did I forget that!"
Xuanyuan Xiu's voice sounded, with a hint of sudden realization, and said to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, although this is not the Heavenly Blood Holy Mansion, it must be an independent space specially arranged by the Heavenly Blood Holy King, this gray-robed old man is so familiar with this valley, it is very likely that he is the guardian of this valley!"
Xuanyuan Xiu's words were like a spiritual light, which suddenly made Ye Chenmao stop.
"The Heavenly Blood Saint King is a powerhouse of the Holy Clan, so the person he sends must also be from the Holy Clan, in other words, this gray-robed old man is a member of the Holy Clan!" Ye Chen's heart froze, no wonder the gray-robed old man would make such a move, it turned out that he recognized Ye Chen's identity!
After thinking about everything clearly, Ye Chen's face couldn't help but show a wry smile, just now, as soon as they entered the valley, they were intercepted and killed by the gray-robed old man, everyone's hearts were tense, they didn't think of this crucial point at all, even an old monster like Xuanyuan Xiu forgot it, and when they heard the words of the gray-robed old man, they suddenly remembered.
"Yao'er, help me up. Ye Chen said softly, and with Ye Yao's support, he staggered to his feet, moved lightly, and walked forward with some difficulty.
Seeing this, Nie Feng and the others became nervous, and they were about to speak, but Ye Chen waved his hand and gave them a reassuring look.
Walking in front of the gray-robed old man, Ye Chen could feel that the gray-robed old man's body was trembling, not because of anger, let alone killing intent, but because of awe, he didn't even dare to raise his head, clinging to the ground.
"Get up. Ye Chen said lightly, making the gray-robed old man's body tremble even more, and bowed his head and said: "The old slave should die, he failed to detect the identity of the king, and let the king suffer such a serious injury, if the king does not punish him, the old slave will not be able to kneel for a long time." ”
Hearing this, Ye Chen was a little helpless, his eyebrows were raised, and he said: "Since you call me the king, then you are the courtier, the king's order, the courtier can't disobey, I let you get up, you should get up, otherwise it will be disobedience." ”
The gray-robed old man's heart trembled, he didn't dare to disobey anymore, and stood up suddenly, but he still bowed down, his eyes drooped, and he didn't dare to look directly into Ye Chen's eyes.
"The Holy Clan's lineage, status, and the way of respect and humility have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, not to mention, you are the king of the Holy Clan, bearing the fire of the inheritance of the Holy Clan, and this gray-robed old man's status is not high, when he sees you, he will naturally be so respectful, and you don't have to feel helpless. Xuanyuan Xiu reminded Ye Chen.
Ye Chen understood in his heart, regained his calmness, and asked the gray-robed old man, "How did you find out my identity?"
From stepping into the valley to the present, Ye Chen has not used the ancient totem, nor has he cast the Yuan Array on the ancient totem, logically speaking, it is impossible for the gray-robed old man to discover his identity, which makes Ye Chen very puzzled.
"The king doesn't know, the old slave's cultivation method is more peculiar, you can identify your identity from the blood, the arrow shot by the king just now contains your blood, and the old slave can naturally identify your identity. The gray-robed old man's explanation made Ye Chen slightly surprised, there was such a strange technique in the world that could identify his identity from blood.
But after thinking about it, Ye Chen was relieved.
The Holy Clan came from the Hidden Dragon World, and the exercises they practiced must be unusual and could not be evaluated by common sense, not to mention, if it weren't for the gray-robed old man who happened to cultivate such a wonderful exercise, perhaps, the five of them would really die here.
"Are they also members of the Holy Clan?" Ye Chen pointed at the two men in black, feeling a little embarrassed, just now the five of them made a move and killed the four men in black, although he was the king of the Holy Clan, it seemed a little bad to do such a thing.
"Them?" the gray-robed old man was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The king has misunderstood, these two people are not of the same clan, they are just blood slaves refined by the old master. ”
"Blood slave?" Ye Chen frowned slightly.
The gray-robed old man nodded and continued to explain: "That's right, these two people were strong men of the Protoss before they were born, and after they were killed by the old master, they used secret methods to carve blood marks on their bodies, so as to make them blood slaves without any intelligence, strictly speaking, they are no longer living beings, but a kind of dead things, not only them, in the entire space, except for the four guardians, any thing, whether it is a spirit beast or a holy beast, is a blood slave." ”
