Chapter 770 - 770 Three Little Black Eggs (1)
770 Three Little Black Eggs (1)
Yu Wan had been kidnapped by the black envoys for so long. Of course, she already knew the identity of Grandma, Ah Wei, and the others. However, she had always believed that they did not have any ill intentions towards her. Otherwise, they would have succeeded after so many chances.
Yu Wan did not dare to say how smart she was, but she could still tell who treated her well and who was bad. If it weren’t for Grandma and the others, it would be impossible for Yan Jiuchao to find the two herbs. Therefore, no matter what, she could not ignore the lives of Grandma and the others.
“Eh? You’re not dead?” Old Cui noticed the bruised and swollen Ah Dou.
Ah Dou snorted. “We experts won’t die so easily!”!!
Yu Wan also looked at Ah Dou. “Ah Dou, do you know where they’ll capture Grandma?”
Ah Dou said, “Where else can we go? His palace!”
With that, Ah Dou frowned. He felt that he had forgotten something very important, but he could not remember what it was.
Old Cui glanced at him. Hehe, aren’t you a white envoy? Aren’t you going to capture your “Madam”? Go ahead and arrest her!
Ah Dou scratched his head. He had forgotten something…
The Ghost Clan’s mountains were overlapping, and the palace was located in a beautiful mountain. The foot of the mountain was heavily guarded, and along the way, there were many mechanisms. It was no different from ascending to the heavens if they wanted to sneak into the palace without any noise. However, if there was someone leading the way, it would be a different matter.
The old man, Ah Wei, and the other two were sitting in the bare prison carriage. Their luggage was placed on another prison carriage. The leader was a first-class guard under the Ghost King called Cang Ying.
Cang Ying, Qing Yan, and Yue Gou were from the same sect. They were all once the King’s personal guards. The difference was that Cang Ying’s potential in martial arts was higher. He became the King’s personal guard, while Qing Yan and Yue Gou were chosen by the old man to become the white envoys who went to capture the Madam.
In the three years that they had been carrying out the mission, Cang Ying had received guidance from the Ghost King and the Guardians. His martial arts had advanced by leaps and bounds. Until now, his cultivation was no longer inferior to Asura.
In comparison, Qing Yan and Yue Gou did not have much attainments in martial arts. However, their horizons were naturally higher. After all, they had traveled all over the world. There was nowhere in the Great Zhou, Nanzhao, Young Master Manor, and Helian Manor that they had not been to.
But what was the use of horizons?
Now, the one walking valiantly outside was Cang Ying, and the pitiful ones locked in the prison carriage were them.
Qing Yan sighed. “Sigh, we’re all old friends. Even if you don’t welcome us, at least give us a decent carriage. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if our clansmen see us like this later?”
Cang Ying ignored him and continued to walk up the mountain expressionlessly.
Qing Yan wiped his face helplessly. He looked at the old man who was resting with his eyes closed, then at Yue Gou and Ah Wei, who were frowning. Then, he said shamelessly, “Big Brother Cang, Big Brother Ying? Can you at least give me some water to drink?”
Cang Ying pulled out his sword and a cold sword energy slashed over. A strand of Qing Yan’s hair was cut off and he was so frightened that he did not dare to make a sound again. As they approached the palace, the prison cart was covered with a black cloth. When the wheels finally stopped turning, the black cloth was lifted.
At this moment, the sun was setting. In the depths of the mountains, the setting sun was as red as blood.
Cang Ying had already left to report to the King.
They were thrown into a lonely courtyard along with the prison carriage. At first, there were guards guarding them, but later on, even the guards could not be bothered to guard them.
There was no other reason. This prison carriage was made of ten-thousand-year-old black iron. If they were locked up here, they would basically be unable to escape. There was no need to guard it tightly.
Qing Yan leaned against the prison carriage on his back and looked at the grayish-blue sky. He let out a long sigh. “Grandma, do you think we’ll die?”
The answer was without a doubt. They had betrayed the King, so of course there was no way out. The difference was whether they would die happily or be tortured to death.
“Grandma, what do you think the King will do with us?”
Qing Yan had never seen the King’s true appearance in his life, let alone know him. Among them, only the priest could often be summoned by the King. It could be said that no one in the entire clan knew the King better than the priest.
However, the King was a temperamental person. Even Grandma could not guess what he would do.
“Searing or dismemberment, I guess?” Grandma said calmly.
Qing Yan’s hair stood on end.
Searing?
Dismemberment?
Did it have to be so terrifying?
The old man continued, “The King doesn’t like people to be cut in half. He said that the person will die after twisting it twice when half of his body was cut. It’s boring.”
