Behind Ao Xu, he didn't dare to answer this question, because it had already involved the battle within the Dragon Palace.

"My second brother came today to give me a chance. Ao Xu laughed at himself: "He doesn't have the cultivation talent of his eldest brother, but he has a war mind that his eldest brother doesn't have." ”

Looking at the sea that had regained calm, Ao Xu was still standing there, but his mind was mixed.

And in a hidden cave on the island, the sound of a phoenix suddenly resounded on the entire island.

Hearing this, Ao Xu's face changed suddenly, the shadow behind him had long disappeared, and the guards behind him looked at each other in disbelief.

Without any hesitation, Ao Xu rushed back to the island with people, and outside the cave, a young woman covered in black veils stood quietly outside the cave, her eyes flashing.

"It's the relics of the Protoss!" Ao Xu's mouth was hooked, and his eyes were full of excitement that could not be concealed, no wonder the Ghost Saint Monarch would take him as an apprentice, which made sense.

The most rare thing is actually the remnant of the Phoenix Divine Clan, the king of the Divine Bird Clan, this is a great weapon, if it can be cultivated.

But......

The next moment, outside the cave, in a flash of light, a young man with white hair suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

The corners of Ao Xu's eyes twitched, in the middle of the True Dan, this guy actually managed to break through?

Li Xiaoyi bowed his hand, and Ao Xu returned the salute with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Li on his successful advancement, it's so hard for me to hide it." ”

"I didn't deliberately hide it. Li Xiaoyi replied politely.

"Forget it, don't mention it. Ao Xu stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Xiaoyi's hand: "Come, I'll show you something." ”

You can say that he is very impolite to this action, but at this time, there is another layer of meaning in it, especially in front of everyone.

The two came to Ao Xu's own cave house alone, and there were two True Dan cultivators guarding the door, and when they saw Ao Xu, they saluted one after another.

Ao Xu took Li Xiaoyi into it one after the other, but it was a unique cave and very luxurious, without worldly gold, silver and jade, and it was a flaming red tall coral tree.

There are several night pearls the size of dragon's eye dotted on it, illuminating the entire cave, and the surrounding area is furnished with strange shells like jade, and the treasure light is continuous.

Ao Xu stepped forward, stretched out his hand and shot a strange symbolic light, the ground shook slightly, and suddenly in front of Li Xiaoyi's eyes, a long underground corridor appeared.

Ao Xu didn't say much, he stepped in first, Li Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment, and followed closely.

The corridor stretched downward, and there was darkness all around them, only the jade staircase, emitting a glowing green light, guiding the two of them to keep going down.

The temperature was constantly decreasing, getting colder and colder the further it went, reaching the freezing point, and in the darkness around the sides, Li Xiaoyi keenly felt a vague breath.

He didn't know it, and followed behind Ao Xu until the end of the road, and after another strange rune was played, the two of them entered a hidden space.

With the induction of divine sense, this space is not very large, and with Ao Xu snapping his fingers, the entire secret room suddenly brightened.

In front of Li Xiaoyi's eyes, the golden light suddenly shone brightly, one after another, one after another, row after row, neatly filled the entire secret room.

Ao Xu looked confident, and Li Xiaoyi was shocked.

"This is my biggest secret!"

Li Xiaoyi didn't know what to say for a long time, his scalp was a little tight, and he had already begun to regret that he shouldn't have entered this secret room.

When you know someone else's secret, it means that you are already in his world, inseparable, if you want to be separated, you need Li Xiaoyi to pay some price, which he can't accept.

"It blooms every 10,000 years, and it can bear fruit every 10,000 years, it's not that I don't want to help Brother Ao Xu, but I can't help. ”

This time, Li Xiaoyi said very sincerely, but Ao Xu raised his eyebrows and said: "The Ghost Saint Monarch provides ten thousand rounds of fruit, and it only takes a hundred years." ”

"That's because there is the annual supply of flesh and blood from the Dragon Palace, it's impossible for Brother Ao Xu not to know, right?"

After a pause, Li Xiaoyi continued: "What's more, what such a ghost vine will become in the end is also unknown, and the effect of its fruit will also be greatly reduced. ”

Li Xiaoyi didn't say half a word about these words, although he likes to tell lies very much, because lies don't hurt people, but since Ao Xu showed him his biggest secret, then he has to pave the way for his future.

Ao Xu groaned, and it took a long time before he said solemnly: "The quality of the ten thousand rounds of fruit supplied by the Ghost Saint Monarch to the Dragon Palace has been declining year by year, and only the first batch has achieved remarkable results, and the father has never said the reason, so it turned out to be like this." ”

"It is because the Holy Monarch's resentment towards the Ghost Emperor is too heavy, so he will use his own flesh and blood as a guide, desperate to ripen the fruit, and now the Holy Monarch, there is not much time left, not his longevity, but can no longer suppress the abnormal changes in his body. ”

Looking at Ao Xu, whose brows were becoming more and more furrowed, Li Xiaoyi continued: "A year later, Brother Ao Xu will know how terrible the consequences of this change are!"

"If I were to do the same thing, would you help me?" Ao Xu's voice did not tremble at all, and he said in an unquestionable tone.

To Ao Xu's surprise, Li Xiaoyi did not hesitate at all, and there was an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Then you'll have to help me find someone with Protoss blood. ”

In an instant, Ao Xu seemed to feel that he had been tricked, from the beginning to the present, before and after, he thought about it again and again, and this feeling became more and more clear.

Except for the fact that Li Xiaoyi was slightly flustered when he was ambushed at the beginning, from the time he lived on the island, everything was so calm and calm, and he didn't have the consciousness of a prisoner at all.

can still cultivate with peace of mind and seek a breakthrough in the realm, just like now, those sea beast gold medals displayed in front of him have not aroused his interest, and the topic of the two has always revolved around the Youluo vines.

It was an area he was not familiar with, but it was a topic that the other party could control freely and advance and retreat.

He had lost his dominance, and the disadvantageous position of the seeker caused him to keep asking, and after blind exploration, he realized that perhaps he had fallen into a trap that had been prepared in advance.

This is not the result that Ao Xu wants, but it is a fact that he has to accept, although he is unwilling in his heart, and then he thinks of the eldest brother who is as unattainable as a mountain, and the arrogance of the second brother when driving the dragon boat, the purpose pierces his heart......

Does he still have a choice? Li Xiaoyi actually didn't have it, if Ao Xu insisted on doing this, he could only help him do it, if Ao Xu no longer needed him, he didn't have a choice, it was better for both to be happy.

But he ignores a desire to control, and the arrogance and stubbornness that a person with a strong self-esteem can have, and Ao Xu does not agree, nor does he disagree.

The two left the secret room in silence, Ao Xu was as always, and Li Xiaoyi was slightly disappointed, but he had enough patience, so he lived here in peace and continued his cultivation.
