Chapter 265 People Outside the Law
On the edge of Darkness Country in the Wild Domain, a beam of dim light flashed by and Lyu Liang and Zhu Yu thus appeared. At that moment, they both changed back to their own appearances.
“Brother Zhu, what was that all about? You are really amazing and could actually change into the appearance of a disciple from the Frost Peak Clan, and won’t be seen through! And that black token, please tell me all the details!” Lyu Liang had lots of questions. He finally got the chance to ask him.
Zhu Yu first looked around and then nodded, replying to him with a smile, “It’s very quiet here. This black token could actually break the restriction formation in the space passage at any time. It is indeed an artifact! The answer to your question is on that Fairy, Qin Yun’er. My shapeshifting and token were given to me by her!”
Hearing the name Qin Yun’er, Lyu Liang’s face darkened. He said lightly, “I know, it was not only her that tried desperately to save me. There were also people who broke the restriction formation outside and held Ancestor Ice to buy me some time… They should be a secret power. It’s sad that I didn’t know anything about them to the end…”
Zhu Yu patted his shoulder and said softly, “They did risk their lives to save you, but what the Drug Emperor said in the end must have something in it. We have to think deeply about it. When I just sneaked into the Icy Peak before, Qin Yun’er saw through me at once. Then we kept a subtle cooperation. But then you showed up and a series of events happened subsequently. I kind of found that they might take you as a chess piece while saving you!”
“A chess piece?” Lyu Liang was shocked. He then recalled what happened before and realized that that seemed to be the only reason for everything he’d been experienced.
“They should bear no ill will and saving you is also a hard fact. You don’t need to worry about that. We just need to be more careful afterward. With my experience in the Heaven Realm, this Nether Big World is quite complicated! There are too many things that are unknown to us. Those big powers here are already comparable to some branches of the Heavenly Alliance!” It was rare that Zhu Yu would say something so solemnly.
“I understand that. Even if I’m a chess piece, I’m still grateful to them! Um, well, what did you experience inside the space passage afterward? Do you have any clue about the other companions?” Lyu Liang suddenly realized that finding his companions was the thing that was more important!
Zhu Yu shook his head and said, “That day we got ambushed in the space passage, Xiao Wu fought at the cost of breaking his Space-Tearing blade and made a way out! Later, we entered different passages separately on another floor, when I just appeared in the southern area. As for the other people, I really don’t know where they are exactly. I just hope that they didn’t show up in some extremely dangerous place.”
Hearing that, Lyu Liang could only pray for them. He then sighed deeply and asked, “What are we going to do now? What’s your plan, Brother Zhu?”
Zhu Yu replied, “We have to shapeshift again, and then figure out a way to get some information in the marketplace about how to go to the Northern Mining Area!”
Lyu Liang was stunned and asked, “Well, then what about the Tai-Ah Sword? Do you have a clue already? When are you planning to get it?”
Zhu Yu laughed bitterly and shook his head, saying, “That old guy, who used to search Dark Night Shenyang’s soul, got a piece of news for me. The Tai-Ah Sword is indeed in this world, but currently it’s in your insane Master’s hands… Anyway, that’s not a problem that would be solved within a short time, so it’s better to help you rescue Yang Ying’s clansmen from the trap first!”
“Eh… Thank you, Brother Zhu!” Although everything was not going as expected, it was really good that he could use Zhu Yu’s help.
“There seems to be a marketplace in the front not far away. We’ll go there separately for the moment and try to get some useful information within three days, and then we come back to this place and discuss our next step! Be careful. I suspect that the people here already know that we have arrived in the Wild Domain through the transmission formation!” Zhu Yu warned Lyu Liang and disappeared right then.
Lyu Liang took a deep breath and changed into an ordinary-looking disciple of the Icy Peak. Then he flew toward someplace in front where there was a cultivator’s aura coming out.
However, when he just flew for less than 1,000 feet, his long-practiced alertness made him stop. He immediately landed on the ground and jerked his head to look to the right!
“Well? You have a very keen divine sense! Besides, your looks… Tsk-tsk, no wonder that nearly all the topics Yama has been talking about on the way were about you. He worships you for a reason.” A naughty boy who seemed to be only five or six years old was sitting on a perilous peak. He smiled at Lyu Liang, his two small legs swinging leisurely.
Lyu Liang suddenly became nervous! At that time, the Divine Beast of Chaos, as well as the Swallowing Spirit, were missing, obviously being shielded by a weird Power of Law.
“Nice to meet you, senior. I’ve never seen you before. Is there anything I can do for you?” Lyu Liang just behaved in a calm manner and said with cupped fists.
“It’s okay. You seem to be startled by me. But don’t worry, I’m not here to hurt you! I just have heard a lot about you from my companion and become curious, so I couldn’t help coming here to see you! Haha, you are very good. Under my ‘No Initial Killing’, you could still stay so composed. That’s something, you know!” that boy smiled and said. At the moment, Lyu Liang was finally relieved!
Although he looked calm, a stream of indescribable creepy aura made him feel that if the boy turned on him right then, he would probably end up with a terrifying result, or even death!
“Your companion knows me? Am I a friend of your companion?” Lyu Liang was puzzled and asked gently.
“Well… I can’t tell you that! Oh, I’m the Instant Boy, one of the ‘Extra-legal Six People’. Today I’m here just to see what kind of person you are. See you later! But,… we’d better not meet each other again…” The boy rubbed his head, as if he had recalled something. Then he smiled awkwardly and disappeared right away.
Lyu Liang looked at the empty perilous peak, being at a loss for a while. The Instant Boy moved so fast just like his name. He had left no trace behind, as if he’d never been there before.
“He is one of those Extra-legal People, who has the top cosmic velocity… He also mentioned Yama, who should be Yama Zhina, the most powerful monster with an indestructible body… Why would they come here? Does that also have something to do with you?” White said solemnly, as if talking to himself.
Lyu Liang asked hurriedly at that moment, “Senior White! What are the People outside the Law? I felt that he could have terminated me with just the slightest effort!”
“Dude, this is about the event that has led to the breakdown of the Divine Clan Space that year. I can’t tell you the details! But you have to stay away from them! Although their goal might not be you, you could still get into big trouble once you get involved with them!” White paused and then continued, “How about the power of Xuanli Evil Moon before? Each one of the Extra-legal Six People is extremely powerful to him! And the most important thing is that they have a terrifying secret method to prevent their cultivation from dropping, so their power is even above the level of Divine Emperor!”
Lyu Liang gasped and continued to ask, “If that is the situation, they would have no match in the world at all! Which camp do they belong to? I hope they are not our enemies.”
White said slowly, “They… they are more like six monsters breaking away from the law of heaven and earth than six cultivators! Only one thing is certain, their target is strictly restricted. The Instant Boy just now only came here to intimidate you. As long as you don’t trigger the restriction formation of his actions, he is not allowed to hurt you! They don’t belong to any camp. Each one of them has his unique rules to act. They basically haven’t shown up since the Divine Clan Space was destroyed. And now one of them just appeared in this place!”
Lyu Liang still intended to ask something more, when White stopped him, saying, “Stop asking. That’s all I can tell you. Unless you could experience that restriction formation in the future… Forget it. I hope you are lucky enough not to experience it.”
Since White said that, Lyu Liang suppressed his curiosity and continued to fly toward the town with lights illuminating vaguely.
Although White had returned to the sleepy state at that moment, his heart was unsettled. He sighed and murmured, “He has after all been dragged into this big trouble… Wood, if that really happens, you should be the one who is heartbroken…”
…
The central zone of the Magic Forest, a forbidden area, was located in the eastern part of the Nether Big World. If someone went there, they would surprisingly find that it was a top world where no limitations were set on cultivation!
Inside it, two people of different heights were talking about something. The shorter one was exactly the Instant Boy, who had looked for Lyu Liang before. He was exultantly saying something, while the lean man opposite him, who was wearing a black robe, had a layer of dim Gray Fog on his face. There was no way to get a clear view of his facial features.
“You don’t say, under my Killing Aura of Antiquity, he actually dared to talk with me even without changing color. Anyway, he is a person with such a low level of cultivation. That’s interesting!” Instant Boy said excitedly with his spit flying. “Haha, I don’t know how far he is going to make it in this world.”
The man wearing a black robe sighed and said, “You were not supposed to go find him… We are totally different from him. If possible, I really hope he could stay away from us…”
“Come on. You are lying to yourself! You say you don’t care about him, then why do you always keep talking about him? Although you were sealed then, you have remembered him for so long, which shows that he is an important person in your heart! I also hope we would never meet him in the future. But, in case he unfortunately triggers our restriction formation rules, it’ll be really hard to deal with him!” The Instant Boy rubbed his head, looking quite upset.
The man wearing a black robe then said softly, “I’m also unclear of my feelings toward him. At that time, I was really bored and just wanted to play a game, but he had done me a great favor. I just never expected that it’s going to be like this. But, if what you said does come true someday… we still won’t show mercy… That’s the mission of our destiny since we were born!”
“Do you think that it was a mistake that we participated in the battle about the God King of Ten Directions and the Canon of Wildness that year? If we hadn’t chosen to come into the world, Phantom and Dead Fire wouldn’t have left, either. Right now, we are still the ‘Extra-legal Six People’, but not the original one…” The Instant Boy suddenly became sad.
The man dressed in a black robe just patted his head and said with a smile, “If we hadn’t chosen to come into the world, we would be still sleeping soundly in that Chaotic world! Do you really want to go back? We have no right to interfere with the choices of Phantom and Dead Fire. Even if we are hostile to each other at this moment, that doesn’t bother me at all! If comes to worst, we’ll get killed and enter the sleep state again! Remember, we started from the Canon of Wildness and will also end up with the Canon of Wildness…”
Hearing that, Instant Boy became excited again and clapped his hands, saying, “You are right! We fell asleep together last time! And I also got back at Phantom in the Spirit Field Domain, as he used to beat me up!”
Looking at the cheerful Instant Boy, the man said quietly in his heart, “I hope he won’t get involved… If he is really dragged in, I will risk my life to protect him…”
