Chapter 198: Bitter Mouth
Tang Zixi was stunned, and soon came back to his senses and shouted: "Impossible! You lied, you were the one who lied to me from beginning to end, Brother Jing was killed by you, I will kill you to avenge him!" After speaking, he raised his dagger and staggered towards Li Yu.
Li Yu shook his head slightly, his figure had disappeared in place in a flash, and the next moment he appeared on her other side, sighing: "You are not my opponent now, and I don't want to hurt you!"
Tang Zixi stumbled, took a few steps backwards in a row to stabilize his figure, and said in a lost voice: "Yuanying Cultivator, you are actually Yuanying Monk!" Then his eyes turned and found the jade pendant on his waist, and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened, it was actually the ring-shaped jade pendant that she had lost for a long time.
Li Yu followed her gaze, stretched out his hand and patted his head and said, "I almost forgot this." After speaking, he took off the jade pendant.
Just when Tang Zixi stretched out his hand and waited for him to return it to him, Li Yu opened the lid a little with a wave of his sleeves, and then threw the jade pendant into it.
She couldn't help but be shocked and angry, and shouted, "That's mine!"
Li Yu glanced at her strangely and said, "There's your name on it?"
Tang Zixi was so angry that her cheeks were red, and she ate his heart raw, but she also knew that she was not the opponent of the other party, so she gritted her teeth and said, "This is my birthday gift." Brother Jing personally found the best craftsmen to make it. β
Li Yu sneered disdainfully and said, "It's true that the best craftsman made it, but it's not him Su Jing." After speaking, he raised his hand and threw a scroll over, "See for yourself! The origin of this jade pendant is very clear." β
Tang Zixi couldn't wait to take the scroll and open it to take a look, and there was indeed a picture drawn on it, and the shape was a ring-shaped jade pendant, but it was not a white and almost transparent color, but a very peculiar red. There are also two small words written under the jade pendant 'Protecting the heart'.
Her heart moved, and she remembered a legend that Su Jing had told her a long time ago.
The Heart Protector is a common auxiliary magic weapon in the demon world, which can help the demon clan protect its mind when it resists the catastrophe. Since the appearance of the Protector Heart Pei, the number of demon clans who have successfully crossed the demon realm has increased significantly, and a large number of primordial babies and god-transforming monks have emerged. It's a pity that since the catastrophe thousands of years ago, the Demon Realm's Protective Heart Pendant has been destroyed, and the method of refining the Protective Heart Pendant has also been lost. Without the protection of the heart, the danger factor of the demon clan's catastrophe has increased significantly, and many demon clans have fallen under the catastrophe, even the ten thousand demon kings have not been spared, and the real body was split into ashes by the heavenly thunder when the god hit the refining period, and only one doppelganger escaped. Since then, the demon clan has completely collapsed, and it didn't take long for them to be driven out of the demon world by the spirit world and the demon world, and they wandered everywhere.
As the scroll slowly opened, pictures emerged. The picture depicts the legendary catastrophe.
The demons of different forms in the painting were hunted down by a large number of monks. Some were killed by the monks on the spot and then taken pills, while others were captured alive and put into various tripods for refining.
The painter is very skillful, and he paints everyone's expressions very expressively. Tang Zixi could not only feel the excitement and excitement of those monks who were almost crazy, but he could even clearly feel the pain and despair of those demon clans before they died.
She couldn't bear it before she finished reading it, and closed the scroll with a snap, and her head was already in a cold sweat. She never dreamed that the legend she had listened to as a myth back then would be true.
"It's a pity, killing chickens and taking eggs is not a wise choice!"
Li Yu shook his head, with a look of regret on his face.
"What does this have to do with Brother Jing?" Tang Zixi raised his head with the discomfort in his heart.
Li Yu smiled and said, "Su Jing's previous life was one of the four protectors of the Spirit Realm Moon Spirit Palace, and he also had a part in the strangulation of the demon clan. And afterwards, the four protectors were ordered to hunt down and kill the Ten Thousand Demon King, and the other three all died in the spatial crack, but he survived and brought back the Ten Thousand Demon King's protective heart. β
Tang Zixi said puzzledly: "Being able to win the Heart Protector means that he killed the Ten Thousand Demon King, and the Moon Spirit Palace should reward him." β
"On the surface, even the Moon Spirit Palace back then thought so. Li Yu's eyes looked at the three-legged tripod beside him, and the expression on his face was very complicated.
Tang Zixi faintly guessed something, and said loudly: "Is there a problem with protecting the heart?"
Li Yu snorted and said, "Because that Heart Protector has a drop of blood from the Ten Thousand Demon King in it." It's a pity that no one noticed this at the time, and thought that it was because the cultivation of the Ten Thousand Demon King was too high during his lifetime, so her heart protection was different from other demon clans. β
Tang Zixi shook his head and said, "I don't understand. β
Li Yu frowned and said, "What don't you understand?"
Tang Zixi took a deep breath and said, "These are all things you said, and no one can testify for you." I haven't seen the Demon King of the Demon Clan, you say this is her heart protection, and I can also say that it is not. And you suddenly became a primordial monk, and I think you're the most suspicious. β
Li Yu nodded and said, "I can explain to you the reason for the sharp rise in cultivation." Because I have fused with the ontology, now I am Li Yu, and it can also be said that I am not Li Yu. It might be a bit of a stretch to say that, so let's show you one more thing. After speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the void, and directly grabbed the snake-like beast that appeared before.
As soon as the beast appeared, it looked very anxious, and roared at Tang Zixi. If Li Yu hadn't pressed it stiffly, it would have rushed over a long time ago.
"It's called Nine Infants, it's my Dharma Protector Divine Beast, and I've been guarding the gate of the Demon Realm all these years waiting for my return, but unfortunately I've entered reincarnation. It's hard work. β
After Li Yu finished speaking, he touched the beast's head, and then waved his hand to hide it again.
"It's so unfriendly to you because you're tainted with the scent of a protective heart. Jiuying had suffered the loss of the Ten Thousand Demon King back then, so ......"
Tang Zixi nodded in understanding, and said, "So, are you really that Dao Ancestor of the Demon Realm?" Doro had told her that Li Yu was the true doppelganger of the Demon Boundary. Although she didn't know what the origin of the Ancestral Demon Wujiang was, in the painting that Tiange showed her at the beginning, it was the Demon Wujiang who drove the Holy Maiden of the Moon Spirit Palace into the spatial crack.
Li Yu smiled and praised: "You are still so ice and snow smart, yes, my true body is indeed the Demon Realm Dao Ancestor Demon Wujiang." β
"Back then, the Moon Spirit Palace knew the whereabouts of the Ten Thousand Demon King's clones but didn't tell us about the Demon Clan, so we naturally felt a little dissatisfied. So I followed the four Dharma protectors and witnessed the whole thing with my own eyes. β
Although Tang Zixi didn't believe his words, when it came to Su Jing, he couldn't help but prick up his ears.
"I saw with my own eyes that Su Jing led the other three people into the Ancient Death Place, killed them one by one with various breaking methods, and then threw them into the spatial rift. I was surprised and didn't understand why he did it. But when I followed him deep into the heart of a volcano, I finally understood. The doppelganger of the Ten Thousand Demon King had actually been hiding under that volcano to recuperate. β
"After Su Jing left, I showed up and arrested the Ten Thousand Demon King, and then I figured out the reason. β
"It turned out that as early as when Su Jing traveled to all walks of life for the first time, he met and fell in love with the Ten Thousand Demon King, and they also agreed with each other for life. It's just that the Ten Thousand Demon King at that time was just a little-known little demon, and it is estimated that even Su Jing herself did not expect her to become the later Ten Thousand Demon King. β
"Later, there was the appearance of the heart protector, and the strength of the demon clan began to grow rapidly, far surpassing the spirit world and the demon world. The spirit realm and the demon realm found out that something was wrong, and after some investigation, they found out about the existence of the heart protector, and after asking for the method of refining the heart guard to no avail, they joined forces to launch an attack......"
"This is the beginning and end of the Great Tribulation of the Demon Realm. It's a pity that I was in retreat and cultivated at that time, and I missed it, otherwise with so many demon pills to help, I would have broken through to the Yuan Infant and reached the stage of transforming into a god. β
Li Yu sighed heavily after speaking, with a look of remorse.
Tang Zixi was stunned when he heard this, and only came back to his senses after a while, and said, "Just because they refuse to hand over the refining method of protecting their hearts, they want to destroy their entire clan, isn't it too vicious?"
Li Yu sneered disdainfully, and said, "Do you have to wait for the demon world to have enough strength to strangle us in turn? Can you guarantee that they won't do this? Don't be naΓ―ve!" Speaking of this, he frowned, and said to himself, "However, we were really too ruthless that time, we should leave some more demon clans, otherwise it will not lead to the shortage of demon pills now, and many Dan recipes have to be abandoned, hey, what a big loss!"
"You fart!" Tang Zixi suddenly became angry, raised his hand and pointed at Li Yu, and reprimanded, "In order to improve your cultivation, you will kill other races, I think you are no different from beasts." Even if your cultivation is high, even if you are allowed to cultivate to the boundless realm? Heaven is fair, and those who ascend to cultivation by such means will sooner or later reap the consequences. β
Li Yujian raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "The law of the jungle is the truth of the cultivation realm. If you don't kill him today, he will kill you tomorrow as well! There are so many cultivation resources in total, and there are only a few people who can ascend to the Immortal Realm and attain immortal life. If they were all as kind as a woman like you, I am afraid that they would have been eaten to the point that there were no bones left. I've spent so much time talking, how do you understand?"
He was obviously really angry by Tang Zixi's words, and flicked his long sleeves and turned his back.
Tang Zixi laughed angrily and said, "If that's the case, I don't think this immortal will be necessary." It's better to be a human being than a beast. I don't think we need to continue talking. Farewell!" After saying that, he arched his hand, and really turned around and left.
