Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Forces Behind It
In a dark mountain forest, a man runs quickly on the path.
The man's face was very pale, his clothes were very disheveled, he seemed to be in a hurry, and there were a few fallen leaves in his hair that had not been cleaned up.
After passing through the mountains and forests, a huge palace jumped in front of him, and the man ran all the way to the palace gate, half-kneeling on the ground and shouting: "Subordinate Tang Ning, there is something important to tell the young master, please report one or two." ”
The voice echoed in the mountains and forests, but he didn't respond for a long time, Tang Ning's face was not different, as if he had expected it, he still knelt on the ground, without the slightest movement, and his expression was extremely respectful.
After waiting for a long time, a figure emerged from the shadows and strode out.
The shadow behind him was really like the surface of the water, rippling with Daodao, and it returned to calm as the figure stepped out. When you look at it again, it's just an ordinary piece of ground.
"Tang Ning, what is the position of living in the Impermanent Mansion now, why do you want to see the young master?"
The figure spoke in a hoarse voice, throwing three questions in a row, while walking out of the shadows without stopping.
At this time, it was noon, and when the sun was shining, there was no shadow in the sunlight.
A shadow covered his body, as if absorbing all the sunlight around him, making it impossible to see his face.
Tang Ning hurriedly lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Impermanence Mansion, Master of the Demon Crossing Hall, Tang Ning pays a visit to the Shadow Protector." The disciple came this time for the change of Hongshou City. ”
According to rumors, this shadow protector disliked others looking directly at him the most, and hundreds of Impermanence Mansion disciples died for this.
Thinking of this, Tangning's head lowered even deeper.
Hearing Tang Ning's words, the Shadow Protector replied coldly: "Just for such a trivial matter, you came to disturb the young master Qing Xiu, what is the use of you?"
The murderous intent was pervasive between the words, and it was clear that the scorching sun was in the sky, but Tang Ning felt a chill all over his body, and hurriedly explained: "Shadow Protector Mingjian, this matter is very important, and it is caused by the intervention of the Hades Hall, otherwise how dare the villain disturb the young master?"
Hearing this, the Shadow Protector was silent for a while before replying, "Get up." Say it earlier next time, otherwise the old man will kill you, and the young master will not blame me. ”
"Yes. ”
Tang Ning stood up in response, and stood aside respectfully, Tang Ning bowed his head deeply during the whole process, not daring to look at the Shadow Protector.
As soon as he stood still, a withered hand put on Tang Ning's shoulder, and then a shadow enveloped his body, and his feet were empty, slowly sinking to the ground.
Then, Tang Ning didn't know anything, it was dark in front of him, and there was not the slightest movement in his ears, only the hand on his shoulder reminded Tang Ning of his current situation.
"Boy, it's here, let's go in. ”
Tang Ning, who had been walking in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, suddenly heard the hoarse voice of the Shadow Protector in his ears, and at the same time, the thin hand on his shoulder also let go.
"Yes. ”
Tang Ning first replied respectfully, and then slowly opened his eyes, and found himself standing in front of a room with a wide open door, which was very bright and out of place in the dim space around him.
It's quiet all around, and it's a little weird quietly.
This was Tang Ning's first thought after opening his eyes, and when he was about to ask the Shadow Protector, he found that the latter had left at some point.
"Thankfully, I didn't see it. ”
Tang Ning pinched a cold sweat, feeling afraid that he had just looked around, if he accidentally looked directly at the Shadow Protector......
Tang Ning hurriedly shook his head, threw this terrible thought out of his mind, calmed the fluctuating thoughts in his heart, and walked into the room.
'Bang!'
As soon as Tang Ning entered the room, the door slammed shut, startling him.
Secretly sighed and salivaed, a pair of eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and seeing that there was no danger, Tang Ning breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk forward.
The room was empty, and there was a mist in the air, and Downing could barely make out the outline of a set of tables and chairs and a bed, and nothing else.
It didn't take long for Tang Ning to come to a place not far from the bed, knelt on the ground, and said, "Tang Ning of the Demon Crossing Hall, meet the young master." ”
In front of him, a man in a purple robe lay lazily on his side on the bed with his back to Tang Ning, one hand supporting his cheek.
"Well, what's the matter?"
It's not just the posture that is lazy, but even the voice is like this, giving people a feeling of not being able to lift their energy.
Listening to the other party's words, an inexplicable feeling of tiredness hit Tang Ning's heart, and his eyelids were extremely heavy, and he was a little drowsy for a while.
But thinking of the environment he was in, Tang Ning hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue, forced himself to cheer up, and replied:
"Young master, my subordinates are here for the change of Hongshou City......"
"Then why did you come, Shen He?"
Tang Ning had just started when he was interrupted by the lazy voice of the 'Young Master'.
The former naturally didn't dare to slack off, and answered: "Dead ......"
"Who else is there?"
"Disciple of the Underworld Hall, Gu Zhi. ”
The 'Young Master' only asked three questions, and then fell silent and did not ask Tang Ning any more questions.
I don't know if it's an illusion, Tang Ning always feels that the Shadow Protector is staring at him in some dark corner, and he just waits for the 'young master' to take his life.
The surrounding fog also seemed to have condensed a lot, as if someone was pinching Tang Ning's neck hard, making him breathless.
But before the person above could speak, Tang Ning could only endure his fear, and lay his head deep on the ground, hoping that the 'young master' would spare his life.
Just when Tang Ning was waiting in a cold sweat and his legs trembled, the 'Young Master', who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke:
"Alright, I already know, step down. By the way, bring this to the Demon Forest and let them divert the attention of the Terran monks. ”
With that, an ordinary jade talisman fell in front of Tang Ning.
"The subordinates retired. ”
Picking up the jade talisman as if he had been pardoned, Tang Ning hurriedly walked out of the room.
When Tang Ning left the room, the 'Young Master' sat up and said calmly to the void, "Come out, I know you're there." ”
As soon as the words fell, as if some mechanism had been opened, a cloudy wind suddenly rose and blew away the fog.
An illusory human form slowly appeared in mid-air, and after a while, it condensed into a pale man in a black robe.
"Hahaha, I knew I couldn't hide it from you. ”
The man laughed and sat down in his chair and poured himself a cup of tea, not thinking of himself as an outsider in the slightest.
The 'Young Master' didn't care, but said lazily: "Stygian, your hand is too long, right?"
When the man named Ming Xuan heard this, he put on a surprised expression and said, "Hey, hey, I'm helping you, even the young master of the demon clan can't spew blood, right?"
"Heh, help me, how do you want to die if you ruin my plans because of you?"
The 'Young Master' sneered, and the field was suddenly filled with murderous intent, and streams of mist condensed into a spear-like shape.
The Shadow Protector also emerged from the shadows beside the bed at the right time, staring coldly at the underworld in front of him.
If it weren't for the fact that the Underworld was born without a shadow, I'm afraid that the Shadow Protector and the Shadow Protector would have been entangled at this time.
In such a situation, Ming Xuan did not panic at all, but took a leisurely sip of tea before saying coldly:
"As long as you still need the millions of Yin soldiers of my underworld, you won't dare to kill me. Otherwise, your position as a young master will not be guaranteed. ”
When the 'young master' heard this, he didn't reply, but the shadow protector didn't hold back, and shouted angrily: "Little Hades, dare to insult the young master of our clan like this?"
With that, the Shadow Protector summoned a glittering dagger in his hand and headed towards the Shadow Mystery at a ghostly speed.
In the face of the attacking Shadow Protector, Shen Xuan was still unhurried, drinking tea slowly.
'Smack!'
Seeing a flash of ghostly light, the dagger in the Shadow Protector's hand pierced through the body of the Shadow Protector, splitting the jade teacup in the latter's hand in two, and the fragments fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Unscathed, the Shadow Protector grabbed the hand of the Shadow Protector and sneered, "This is the hospitality of your demons? ”
"Shut up!"
Hearing Shen Xuan say this, how could the Shadow Protector endure it.
With a flicker of light, the dagger appeared in the other hand, stabbing towards the Stygian Gate.
"Ei, stand down. ”
The dagger paused in front of the eyes of the Shadow Protector, and when the Shadow Protector saw that his young master had spoken, he hesitated for a moment and responded, "Yes." ”
Then he put away his dagger and slowly sank his body into the ground and disappeared.
Shen Xuan shook Shi Cai's hand and grabbed the Shadow Protector, as if there was something filthy on it, and then smiled at the 'Young Master': "Hey, you have a good subordinate. ”
However, the other party didn't seem to appreciate it, and said coldly: "Say, what do you want to do?"
As if he had heard something incredible, he looked surprised and said:
"What do I want to do? You're too slow, I've waited long enough for the underworld, I just want to help you. ”
The 'young master' on the bed suddenly stood up, walked to the side of the Styx and stared at him coldly, and asked with a hint of anger:
"That's how you helped me, and the slightest careless plan will be exposed, you know?"
Shen Xuan plucked out his ears and replied impatiently: "What does that have to do with me? As long as a million Yin soldiers of my Hades appear, the Terrans here will be at your fingertips!"
Originally, Ming Xuan was very dissatisfied with this so-called ally, and he usually covered it up a little, but now he doesn't even pretend.
But his words seemed to anger the person in front of him, and a dark demonic qi poured out from the other party's body, and in an instant, it firmly bound the dark mystery.
This demonic qi seems to have the ability to corrode the Dao Heart, if it is for a long time, it will be seriously injured, and if it is serious, the Dao Heart will collapse and the body will fall!
Shen Xuan panicked: "Are you going to start a war with my Hades Clan? But think clearly, my Hades Clan's million Yin soldiers are not joking. ”
Looking at the Xuanxuan in front of him, whose mouths were full of millions of Yin soldiers, the 'Young Master' eyes were full of disdain, and he shouted, "Do you represent the Underworld?"
Although the Stygian made him very angry, there was one sentence that the Stygian was right, it was indeed not suitable to start a war with the Underworld at this time.
Thinking of this, the 'young master' still didn't start after all, but silently put away his demonic energy.
The regained freedom of the Stygian was transformed into a soul form as soon as possible, and ran away without saying a word of cruelty, for fear that if he ran slowly, he would really stay forever.
The young master of the demon clan stood in place, looking at the gradually fading body of the dark and his face was gloomy, and he suddenly felt in his heart that it would be better to leave the other party behind......
