Chapter 12: The Prophet's Salvation
Leo's parents could only watch their own flesh and blood being taken away, and their life and death were uncertain, and they didn't even dare to show the slightest concern.
They also pinned their hopes on Grandpa Kiri, hoping that Grandpa Kiri, who could rescue Leo in time.
In the empty courtyard of Fort Wade, the corpses that had been killed by Leo before had been cleaned up, and the hundred-man guards brought by the young castle lord were fully armed in the courtyard.
In a hidden place with a bluestone roof in the courtyard, a black figure seemed to blend with the night, motionless, only a pair of blue eyes watched the courtyard vigilantly.
"There weren't so many guards last time I came, did they notice something?"
The black figure thought to himself.
"Young Castle Master!"
At this time, the young castle lord and several of his guards walked out of the tunnel, and the guards saluted respectfully.
"This kid has the poison of the ghost giant scorpion in his body, and he won't live long, so you use secret methods to hurry up and interrogate. ”
The young castle lord ordered to the two guards behind him who were dragging Leo's limp body.
"Yes, Young Castle Master, let's go now. ”
The two of them replied, and then dragged Leo's body and walked towards a bluestone room.
"The poison of the ghost giant scorpion in his body, since he can't get in, then this poisoned person should also have some effect, maybe the master still has a way to save him, and the person who Fort Wade wants to kill will definitely not be a bad person, so ......"
The black figure murmured.
"Bang bang!"
Suddenly, the two guards who were dragging Leo's body had just taken a few steps before they fell to the ground one after another, completely lifeless, and the young man with a weak breath had long since disappeared.
"Ghost ...... Ghost...... It must be a ghost ......."
Someone shouted in horror.
"Ignorant people, whoever dares to talk nonsense again, this is the end!"
The young castle lord stabbed his sword into the chest of the roaring man and shouted.
The sword was drawn, the man's eyes were wide, and he didn't blink his eyes, but he didn't expect that after years of penance, he didn't die in the hands of his opponent in the end, but died under the sword of the person he was loyal to.
"There must be a master behind this son, you go and find out all the people who have recently entered Hutt City for me to investigate, and also, the search in the Soul Broken Mountain Range should also be strengthened. ”
The young castle lord ordered all the guards in the courtyard.
"Yes, Young Castle Lord. ”
Everyone lowered their heads and replied cautiously, for fear that if they accidentally angered this young owner, they would lose their lives at least, or they would be tortured and killed alive by the monsters he raised.
On a bluestone roof outside Fort Wade, Grandpa Tong anxiously dodged his feet, his white beard trembled, he followed his inner sense to find here, but when he arrived here, the sense was suddenly interrupted.
Grandpa Tong couldn't feel Leo's presence anymore, he searched the entire Fort Wade, but still didn't see Leo.
"Something happened to him, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sense him. ”
"Bah, look at my stinky mouth, what kind of person is that kid, he is the one who was chosen by that thing, when the master got his inheritance, he was invincible in that interface, how could such a lucky person die easily?"
Grandpa Kiri, muttering to himself comforting himself, but still anxious, turned away and continued to look for Leo's traces in the surrounding area.
In the forest of the Soul Broken Mountain Range, above the abyss shrouded in mist and the roar of demon beasts, a black figure leaped down with Leo, who had already been unconscious.
At the moment of falling, a crystal clear snow lotus flower quickly bloomed, enveloping the two of them and slowly falling.
The demon python is entrenched on the cliff, the flying beasts shuttle in the clouds and mist, and they all avoid the snow lotus when they see it.
The Snow Lotus finally stopped at a hole in the abyssal cliff, which was only a few meters deep and contained nothing.
From the outside, it looks simple and natural, the color of the cave wall is exactly the same as the color of the cliff, the entrance of the cave is overgrown with vines, and the outside of the cave is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the vision is blurred, and it is difficult to find that there is a cave here if you are not careful.
The black figure then put away the snow lotus, put one of Leo's arms on his shoulder, and carried the unconscious Leo into the cave.
The black figure walked straight to the bottom of the cave, pressed his palm on the cave wall, and the mysterious pattern born from the palm slowly sank into the cave wall, and after a while, the entire cave bottom was like an oval stone door, suddenly opened.
The small bridge in the cave flows, the silver sand path, the strange flowers bloom beside the road, the different grasses are overgrown, it is actually another world, the demon beasts roar in the abyss outside the cave, and the fight continues, but the cave is quiet and elegant.
An old woman leaning on a silver-gray stone chair slowly opened her eyes, a little tired.
"Master!"
The black figure placed Leo on a white stone bed, then came to the old woman and bowed.
"You went to Fort Wade again, Master knows by his own body, although you escaped last time, but it is too dangerous for you, and you are not allowed to go again in the future!"
The old woman's tone was heavy.
"But Master, the apprentice can't watch you leave the apprentice!"
The black figure had a hoarse voice, tears glistening in his big blue eyes.
"For Master, your safety is the most important thing, and even if you get the ghost giant scorpion venom, it can only delay Master's life for a few months, Master's limit has come, why should you risk it for Master?"
The old woman said word by word, the voice seemed to come from the distant primeval time, ethereal but clear.
"Master, that young man was rescued by me at Fort Wade, he has the poison of the ghost giant scorpion in his body, if we can save his life, I think he is willing to give Master a few drops of poisonous blood to delay Master's life. ”
The black figure looked at Leo, then at the old woman, and prayed.
She knew that Master would not force others for her own life, even if it was just a few drops of blood, but how could she bear to watch Master suffer from strange poison day and night?
"That young man is seriously injured and his life is in danger, let's take a look at him first!"
The old woman stood up tremblingly, and the black figure helped her to sit down on the edge of the bed where Leo was lying.
With a flick of the old woman's fingers, a green ray of light emerged from the old woman's fingertips and connected to Leo's body.
"The poison of the ghost giant scorpion in this young man's body has been soaked into the meridians of his body, and he has forcibly devoured the essence blood of the demon dragon before, causing his cultivation to be dispersed and the meridians to be damaged, which has exacerbated the spread of the toxin, and now there is still a breath left, which is really lucky. ”
The old woman withdrew the green light that had been connected to Leo's body, and said slowly to the apprentice beside her.
"Master, is this young man hopeless?"
The black figure's eyes were dim, and he asked abruptly.
I thought that putting aside the poisonous blood, what kind of courage and courage did this young man need to dare to break into a Longtan tiger's den like Fort Wade alone, if he died like this, it would be a pity.
"Others can't save him, but as a teacher, he can, but he can only save his life, and as for cultivation, he can't practice anymore. ”
The old woman spoke earnestly, and her eyes showed regret.
"I can't practice anymore, what a cruel thing this is for a martial cultivator!"
"In such a world where martial artists are respected and the weak eat the strong, a martial cultivator doesn't know how many enemies, and his cultivation is scattered and he can't cultivate, it is equivalent to death, or even more terrible than death!"
"Save his life, are we really saving him?"
The black figure looked confused as he spoke, thinking that if he couldn't even help the master, then no one in the world would be able to save him.
"Disciple, the circumstances of life are so delicate that sometimes even life and death cannot determine a person's fortune. ”
"If this person can meet us, that is the fate between us and him. ”
The old woman said slowly, and her wise turquoise eyes seemed to contain thousands of worlds and eternal vicissitudes.
As she spoke, an oblong crescent-shaped, thumb-sized, glowing treasure detached from the old woman's body, but the luster on the old woman's body dimmed instantly.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
The black figure exclaimed.
