Chapter 66
Chapter 66 . 1
There was silence in the stone cave for a long time, and Shen Li asked as if thinking of something: “I have forgotten before . Isn’t there a man in black under Fu Sheng’s who fell with us?”
Xing Zhi was startled, he shook his head and smiled:
“Shen Li, I have lived for so long, and only now I met a woman like you . After all of that, you can just turn and talk about business right away, as nothing happened . ” He said
The half funny and half helpless ridicule made Shen Li let out an unnatural cough . After watching her for a long time, he narrowed his smile and turned his face straight:
“The person disappeared when he fell . It seemed like a waste of energy to look for him . We have to save our energy as much as possible . ” Thinking back to the scene at that time, Xing Zhi frowned slightly, “Such a scene makes me inevitably think of some past events . ”
Shen Li looked at him curiously, Xing Zhi was frowning .
He raised his eyes and his gaze met her, he concealed a trace of emotion in the depths of his eyes, pondered for a while, and said: “Back then, you should know about the monsters that messed up the demon world . ”
Thousands of years ago, the monsters wreaked havoc in the demons and heaven’s worlds . Xing Zhi tore a gap in space and sealed all of them, it was the seal of Xu Tianyuan . Shen Li knew this past so she nodded quietly .
Xing Zhi slightly curled his lips: “I’m afraid you don’t know it completely . Thousands of monsters appeared in the Demon Realm, but they didn’t come out of thin air . They were made by the last Demon Lord Liu Ming using forbidden techniques . At that time, Liu Ming was dissatisfied with the incompetence of the heavens, unwilling to subdue to the heavens, and wanted to take the place of the heavenly emperor . However, his plan to deploy the army to attack the heavens was strongly opposed by the ministers of the court, they feared that a war with the heavens would only harm the people of the Demon realm . “
” Liu Ming was unwilling, he was refining thousands of monsters in private, intending to attack the heavens, but because of the large number of monsters and powerful forces, he couldn’t control it .
So the monsters almost destroyed the Demon Realm and the Demon Realm was unable to resist . This story was passed to the Heaven Realm, and the Emperor of Heaven came to find me . Then, there was the matter of sealing the monster and beasts later . “
Shen Li was stunned to hear this . She remembered the battle with the horrible fox, and that it was a monster that had not fully recovered its mana but already made the soldiers of the devil world and her so desperate . So it can be seen how powerful thousands of monsters were at that time .
Such a powerful force was actually refined by one person, and that person… he is too terrifying . His horror does not come from his strength, but his unsatisfied heart .
He creates monsters without restraint . If Xing Zhi hadn’t sealed it, then they would have killed all of them, including herself .
“At the time when I first entered the Demon Realm, I fought against monsters for the first time . I didn’t know what they were . After fighting for three days and three nights, I discovered that they were extremely difficult to kill by swordsmanship, and even if they were killed, they were only turned into black energy that would be absorbed by other nearby companions, enhancing the power of another monster . “
If so… sealing them was indeed the fastest way . Shen Li couldn’t help feeling that the Xing Zhi was resolute and clever at that time, and she felt a little embarrassed to think that she had questioned him before .
“So far, what have you thought of all of this?” Xing Zhi suddenly asked Shen Li .
Shen Li was stunned, and then she thought about what he had just said before telling all of this to her, her face turned white .
“Those creatures and the man in black who are chasing after me are a bit similar to those monsters?”
He stopped and nodded: “When we encountered them for the first time in Yangzhou, they weren’t complete, but this time when they came, it made me feel that the people who made them have good skills . ”
Shen Li gritted her teeth: “It must be Fu Sheng . What a ghost! But how does he know the method of refining monsters in the first place? And your water stop technique…what are they trying to do…”
Xing Zhi touched her head: “You are not good at scheming and tend to forget things . It is really hard for you to think about this game transparently . ”
Shen Li squinted her eyes in dissatisfaction, and Xing Zhi smiled like he was teasing a cat .
He said: “First, to answer your first question, in my opinion, Fu Sheng may not know all the methods for refining monsters, otherwise, he would have already made the monsters directly, why bother to make so many creatures that look like semi-finished products? He should know one part, but the other part can’t be known for some reason . What is strange now is: From where did this partial knowledge come from? I remember that Liu Ming had been cut down by my sword . No one in the world should remember the technique of refining…”
Xing Zhi pondered for a while, and temporarily put aside this doubt, “And the second question and the third question may be answered together . First of all, their so-called ‘stop water technique’ seems to me to be nothing more than a child’s play . That’s was just an ice trick . Without divine power, they can’t manipulate the magic . Secondly, do you still remember King Rui we met before?”
“I remember . ”
“Last time you heard me talking with his reincarnation, he is the fallen god Qingye and is my best friend . Although the water stop is my spell, I have taught Qingye some things . Do you remember that first life, Fu Sheng also appeared? Maybe he managed to spy on Qingye, trying to learn about those memories when he was a god and learned a little bit about this water stop technique . ”
Shen Li suddenly realized: “Now that I think about it, he might have voluntarily tampered with a lot of things at the beginning, such as the crown prince looking for you who was just a human at that time . Another example is when he burned your small courtyard and forced us to seek refuge in King Rui . When we were in King Rui’s mansion, I felt devilish energy… It turned out to be him . ”
Xing Zhi nodded: “You remember things clearly . Please continue to guess and try, what was his purpose?”
Shen Li’s eyes rolled: “Forcing me to leave you, and then I was captured by the Demon Realm chaser and was a force to agree with the marriage with Fu Rong… He wants me to marry Fu Rong?” Shen Li was surprised, “What for?”
“The point isn’t who you would marry, but that if you marry, then you would have to go to heaven . The corner of Xing Zhi’s lips twitched, “He wanted you to leave the Demon Realm . ”
Chapter 66 . 2
Shen li understood, but there were even more questions covering her face now .
Looking at Shen Li’s frowning brows, Xing Zhi smiled and continued to guide her:
“During that time, if I hadn’t extended the date of marriage between you and Fu Rong, you would probably be already married to the Celestial Realm . Soon after, something happened at the Demon Realm, do you remember?
Shen Li recalled for a moment, and her face turned white, she stood up suddenly:
“Xu Tianyuan…their purpose is Xu Tianyuan!” [TL/remember note: the ruins, where all the monster were sealed by Xing Zhi]
At that time, the monster escaped and severely injured the soldiers defending the border .
Mo Fang went to defend and the general went to support, and then Zi Xia desperately sent a letter back to the capital before he died . Mo…Mo Fang was seriously injured, but, Mo Fang is on the monster’s side, how could he die?
Soon after, Xing Zhi came to the Demon Realm to reshape the seal, following that, the mountain gods of the human world were captured one after another . Although they didn’t know the specific purpose of capturing the mountain gods, it must be related to the semi-finished demon man Fu Sheng created! At that time, she was still fighting three demons in Yangzhou City .
“In this way, the method they obtained to refine the monster beast probably came from the Xu Tianyuan…” Shen Li rubbed her eyebrows, there was some confusion in her mind, so many things happened, at the time she looked just at the surface . It seems that everything was just happening naturally . It turns out that under the surface, there was another hand pushing things forward .
Shen Li asked: “You knew about these things early?”
Xing Zhi shook his head, “It was only after there were more clues that things were slowly connected together . ”
Shen Li said, “We have to get out of here quickly . Report these things to the Demon Lord in order to take countermeasures . ”
Xing Zhi’s eyes drooped slightly: “Although I don’t want to say that, I have to . I advise you to be two guards against the current Demon Lord . “
Shen Li was startled when she heard these words, and Xing Zhi looked up at her with a cool gaze
“After sealing the monsters thousands of years ago, my vitality was greatly damaged, and I couldn’t manage the demon world anymore . The new Demon Lord was chosen by the demon clan . At the time, there were still many people among the demons who were dissatisfied with the demon world’s surrendering to the heavens and taking care of the seals . However, the Demon World was in chaos at that time, and they were eager to choose a talented person who could take up this important task as the demon lord . They did not pay much attention to their personal position and preferences . I can’t say exactly what kind of person the current Demon Lord is, but I’m sure that he is hiding something from you . ”
Shen Li didn’t hesitate when she said: The Demon Lord might be hiding something from me, but he would never harm me, I believe him . ”
She replied decisively and firmly so Xing Zhi became slightly startled, and immediately lowered his eyes and said: ” If you could believe me that much, it would be good . ”
His voice was extremely small, but Shen li heard it, she turned her head and said:
“This is different . The Demon Lord is also a teacher and…a Father . Without him, I wouldn’t have survived . He has saved me countless times in times of crisis . Now, even if he lied to me my entire life, If in the end, he wants my life, I would give it to him . ”
Xing Zhi looked at her quietly, then he lowered his eyes and smiled and said in a very low voice: “How can I let you die for him… after that… you would just leave me…?”
“…How can I be willing . ”
In the stone cave, there was a moment of silence, and Shen Li turned her head and changed the subject “Speaking of which, how Fu Sheng knows that we are here? With your power, no one would be able to follow us . ”
Xing Zhi shook his head: “If I guessed it right … they didn’t came for us”
Shen Li was startled, they came to this snowy mountain, maybe they came for those rare treasures? But this didn’t feel right… If they wanted those treasures, why come all the way to this remote cave?
The only explanation is that their goal was Lady Jin .
Shen Li frowned: “When we fell, you left Lady Jin alone to block Fu Sheng, will she be able to do that?
“Don’t worry about her, even if she can’t stop him, escaping is her best ability, we should wait . ”
“Oh, This Lady had the trouble of coming down to save people . I’m so sad to hear God saying that . ” A coquettish voice came from the top of her head, and Shen Li looked up .
The stone was still sealed, but her voice was as clear as it was only separated by a layer of paper, “This Lady can’t believe this, the god must apologize to this Lady, otherwise, This Lady will leave you here and go out . ”
Xing Zhi pondered for a while . “So, I won’t apologize . You can go back . ”
Shen Li glared at him, and Lady Jin smiled: “Oh, how dare God! You still want to stay with my sister, so I have to take you out . ”
After saying that, a big hole was pierced in the top of his head, and the dark passage led directly to the top, “Quickly come out . ” These three words were said quickly and urgently .
His figure flashed, he took Shen Li’s waist and flew into the passage .
The stone room above was Lady Jin’s stone room . She stood by the stone bed when Xing Zhi and Shen Li jumped out, she finished performing the seal, a golden light was sealed on the entrance of the cave, sliding down against the stone wall .
They could hear countless shrill screams below, hitting the golden light, intending to escape . When the golden light flourished, all the voices disappeared .
Lady Jin wiped the sweat on her forehead and sighed, “I finally sealed these guys . ” She turned to look at Xing Zhi and Shen Li, with an ambiguous corner of her eyes, she asked Shen Li “When you were below there, nobody bullied you, right?”
Shen Li coughed, pulled away from the hand that was still holding her waist, and said with a stern face: “The God is pure and upright, he doesn’t have these evil thoughts . ”
The golden lady listened, her eyebrows drooped: “It seems he can’t…” The tone seemed extremely disappointed .
In the end, she… was looking forward to how they would be played by her evil thoughts… Shen Li silently wiped a cold sweat .
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Lady Jin’s eyes flashed:
“How do you get treated yesterday…” She just started talking, but suddenly she frowned, and said in a deep voice: “Be careful!”
Lady Jin turned her head and just listened . A scream behind her pierced her ears and she fell to the ground . At the same time, a cloud of black energy like arrows rushed out of the tunnel, passing by Lady Jin, leaving a string of a women’s sharp and wild smile behind .
“This is terrible…” The Golden Lady was lying on the stone bed with her ears covered .
Shen Li hurriedly went over to help her, listening to Lady Jin’s whisper, “This is impossible . How… what is this power that can break my seals…”
Xing Zhi was silent, and then spoke: “You are inhaling the emotions and desires in our hearts…”
Lady Jin looked up at him: “God, I dare to ask how powerful your desires and emotions are ?! This is so painful!”
