Chapter 45: Mandate of Heaven
A month passed quickly.
Whoosh!
On this day, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind in the merchant's courtyard, and then there was an old man with white beard and hair in the sky at some time.
The strange thing is that when the old man appeared, the two black-clothed cultivators who had been guarding in front of the rockery below seemed to turn a blind eye and didn't see the old man at all.
The white-haired old man frowned slightly as he sensed the bloody aura that remained in the courtyard of the business manor, but in his capacity, he didn't care about these trivial matters, and his figure appeared on the rockery in his mind. Before.
It is worth mentioning that even with such a short distance, the two cultivators who were guarding tens of feet away from the rockery still seemed to have not seen the old man, and they did not even move a bit.
The white-haired old man didn't care about the two cultivators. When he appeared in front of the rockery, his brows could not help but frowned, and he murmured, "It's strange, why can't I feel any breath?"
Swish!
There was another sound of breaking wind, and the figure of the white-haired old man disappeared suddenly. Until then, the two cultivators in the distance looked back at the rockery with some doubts, but they saw nothing.
"Brother Chen, did you hear any weird noises?" One of the cultivators seemed to shrank his neck and asked with doubts on his face.
"You also feel this way?" Another cultivator's face changed slightly, and then he glanced at the rockery and said with lingering fear: "Could it be that those poisonous snakes are coming out again?"
As soon as this remark came out, the body of the cultivator surnamed Shen trembled, and then the two of them withdrew again in a very tacit understanding, which made them feel a little safer.
…………
Inside the snake nest cave.
Yun Xiao was still in a coma, and he didn't know the reason, but he was in a coma for a whole month, which was simply incomprehensible.
At this time, beside Yun Xiao, there was already an old man with white beard and hair, and he didn't know how he came here in an instant from the narrow cave passage with his figure.
Of course, these are not important, the important thing is that when the white-haired old man just entered here, when he sensed a certain aura, his face became extremely angry, as if he had discovered something that he absolutely could not accept. thing.
"Why? Why is this happening?"
A deep and furious voice came out of the white-haired old man's mouth, showing that he was extremely restless in his heart, and his eyes were fixed on the sleeping Yun Xiao, as if wanting to spew out fire.
"It's been a thousand years. I thought that when I discovered the golden dragon's egg, I put it in the most inconspicuous Qianlong Continent for fear that those old guys would find out. I had a premonition that the dragon egg would break in the next few days, so I hurriedly Lower realm, who would have thought that in the end it would be cheaper for you, brat!"
The white-haired old man laughed back angrily, and what he said, it seemed that the golden snake worm that Yun Xiao inadvertently inhaled into his body was actually left here by him thousands of years ago, which is really a coincidence.
"Hmph, it's a big joke that an ant with only the middle stage of the Meridian Realm wants to possess such a fetish in vain!" The white-haired old man was obviously filled with anger, and the more he talked, the more angry he became. Lingering up, there was also a trace of killing intent in his eyes.
Once the millennium plan is taken by others, and he is still such an ant in the Qianlong Continent, this old man naturally wants to kill, and with his identity, it is impossible to kill a low-level cultivator like Yun Xiao. any burden.
"Um?"
Unexpectedly, just when the white-haired old man wanted to blow Yun Xiao into a blood mist with a palm, Yun Xiao who was lying on the ground suddenly turned over, and his right hand, which was originally on the lower abdomen, was also here It turned over in a moment, revealing the blood-red crescent moon imprint.
"This is... this is... Xueyue Jue?"
The white-haired old man's eyes froze, and the anger just now disappeared in an instant. Instead, there was a strong disbelief, and he murmured: "Could it be that this kid is from the 'Moon God Palace'? But... how is this?" Possibly? This is Qianlong Continent!"
The white-haired old man was in doubt, the aura in his palm and the killing intent in his heart had already diminished to the point that there was not much left, and countless questions came one after another, and when a piece of information was captured from the depths of his memory, he seemed to understand the cause and effect of it up.
"Could that rumor be true?" Thinking of some possibility, the doubts in the eyes of the white-haired old man dissipated a lot, but when he thought that the thing he had planned for a thousand years was taken away by the kid in front of him who was only in the middle of the pulse-leading stage, he felt a little uncomfortable. Willingly.
"Forget it, forget it, if that's the case, I'm afraid it's due to the fate, and the destiny cannot be violated. Anyway, if I kill you, I can't get the golden dragon back, so let's take advantage of you first!" After a long time in the heart, the white-haired old man finally It was Yun Xiao who gave Yun Xiao a deep look, and gave up the idea of killing just now.
After losing his killing intent, the white-haired old man looked at Yun Xiao carefully, and when he sensed something, he smiled again.
"Although this kid's cultivation base is not very good, but the power of this soul is extraordinary. How could this happen?" Obviously the white-haired old man has extraordinary knowledge. Although Yun Xiao is in a coma, he still sensed it immediately. To the latter's impressive soul power.
Yun Xiao is the rebirth of the soul of God of War Longxiao. Although such soul power may not be a big deal in the eyes of the white-haired old man, it appeared on a Shangzi who was only in the middle stage of the Qianlong Continent. , but extremely weird.
"It seems that you, kid, are indeed related to the Moon God Palace!" The white-haired old man was puzzled, and in the end he could only attribute it to the speculation in his heart, so he stopped thinking about it. .
"I heard that the Moon God Palace and the Zhaixing Building have been in trouble recently, and I don't know if this small family in the Qianlong Continent has suffered from a catastrophe?" Although the white-haired old man came here directly, the kind of people outside He saw the bloody scene of annihilation, and couldn't help but think of it a lot.
But the next moment, the white-haired old man didn't think about these unnecessary things any more. His only purpose in the lower world this time was to get the things that Yun Xiao inhaled into his body. Now that his plan had failed, he certainly didn't want to stay here any longer.
"Boy, if you get my golden dragon, if you can dive into the dragon and fly into the sky one day, don't forget the old man's kindness today!" After the white-haired old man finished speaking, he took a deep look at Yun Xiao who was unconscious on the ground, and then his whole body The shape disappeared in the depths of this snake nest.
Swish!
Outside the rockery, the figure of the white-haired old man suddenly appeared, but the two cultivators in the extreme distance had no sense at all, and they were afraid of the poisonous snakes gushing out of the rockery again, so they couldn't even look at it. I don't dare to look here.
"Huh? This little girl..."
However, just when the white-haired old man was about to leave, his gaze suddenly turned to a graceful and motionless figure beside the rockery.
This figure is naturally Yun Xiao's elder sister Yun Wei. He was injured by the tall and thin old man that day, and passed out long before those poisonous snakes appeared.
It's just that Yunwei was seriously injured and was in a coma for more than a month. If no one rescued her, maybe she would really die.
I have to say that Yunwei's luck is pretty good, even if any strong person from the Qianlong Continent comes, I'm afraid she will think she is just a dead person and dismiss her.
But this extremely mysterious white-haired old man did not belong to Qianlong Continent, but came from a higher plane. Yunwei's extremely faint breath could not be sensed by others, but he could sense it very clearly.
Moreover, from Yunwei's body, the white-haired old man also sensed an unusual aura, the extreme coldness that belonged to Yunwei's ancestral line, which made him a little bit interested in this half-dead girl.
"It's really strange, what happened to the old man today? I always wanted to kill people before, but why do I keep saving people now?" , all disappear at the same moment.
The two black-clothed cultivators in the distance didn't notice what happened here at all, and they didn't know that there was a body missing in the rockery. They were only afraid of those poisonous snakes coming again, and life-saving was the most important thing of.
…………
Lingtian Empire, Lingyun City!
This is a city that is extremely far away from Moonbow City where the merchant is located, and it is also a big city that belongs to another empire in the Qianlong Continent.
There is a particularly powerful sect in Lingyun City, its name is Lingyunzong, and the name of this city is also because Lingyunzong built its sect here.
In a large hall in the depths of Lingyun Sect, there is a figure who doesn't look old but has a half-black beard and half-white hair. This person is the current suzerain of Lingyun Sect: Xu Lingsong!
And at the bottom of Xu Lingsong, there stood a girl wearing a light red dress, with an extremely beautiful appearance. This girl raised her head slightly, and she looked so graceful and graceful, she was truly stunning in the world.
"Father, when I went out to practice this time, I heard a piece of news. I wonder if it's true?"
The girl in the red dress raised her head, stared at Xu Lingsong above her and asked such a sentence, which made the latter's gaze fixed, as if she had guessed what the daughter wanted to ask.
"Hongzhuang, if you're asking about what happened to the merchants in Yuebow City, my father can tell you that it's true!" Xu Lingsong didn't make a fool of himself, and answered directly when he guessed it.
Hearing these words, Xu Hongzhuang's body trembled slightly, her face turned pale, and said in a trembling voice: "All the merchants have been wiped out, so he...he..."
"Oh, it's also the merchant's life that should be doomed. Yun Xiao...Yun Xiao, the three of them, their mother and son, probably died in that battle!" A strange light flashed in Xu Lingsong's eyes, but he sighed, as if feeling It's a great pity.
After getting the most terrifying answer in his heart, Xu Hongzhuang's body trembled even more. Seeing her like this, Xu Lingsong couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward and patted his daughter's shoulder as a sign of comfort.
