Chapter 1146 - 1146 Forced, Yao Qing Saves His Mother (2)
1146 Forced, Yao Qing Saves His Mother (2)
I see, Zhou Shu thought.
He reached out and patted the King of Men Seal. A ray of light scattered down, and then a green-robed figure appeared in front of them.
“Father!” Yao Qing, who was looking around for traces of Yao Wenxin, almost missed his footing and fell to the ground.
Tang Tang also widened his eyes. He knew Ji Lutian, and he also knew that Ji Lutian and the Sima Grotto-Heaven’s Zheng Chengan had died together in battle.
The human race knew about this.
After all, Ji Lutian had risked his life to kill a Demon Emperor, which was the most glorious battle record in the history of the human race.
Before and after, no Demon Emperor had died in battle.
Just like no Grotto-Heaven Master of the human race had ever died in battle.
No, a Grotto-Heaven Master had already died. It was his Tang family’s ancestor, Tang Lan!
But Tang Lan didn’t die on the battlefield.
Endless sorrow flashed across Tang Tang’s heart.
“Ji Lutian?” Yang Hong said in surprise.
Ji Lutian had been hiding in the King of Men Seal?
He felt a chill run down his spine. There had actually been a man hiding in his intrinsic divine weapon?
This made him uncomfortable just thinking about it.
The green-robed figure was not a physical body but an illusory shadow.
He had Ji Lutian’s usual gentle smile on his face. He seemed to look around before looking at Zhou Shu. “It’s good to see you again.”
As soon as Ji Lutian spoke, Zhou Shu knew that this was the Ji Lutian who had fought alongside him in ancient times.
Did he really live from ancient times to the present?
“I’m glad to see you again.” Zhou Shu looked at Ji Lutian’s illusory figure and felt emotional.
He met an old friend from ancient times. They had previously met but hadn’t recognized each other. Now that he saw him again, he was naturally extremely emotional.
To be honest, he had never thought that he would be able to see Ji Lutian again after thousands of years.
“How did you do it?” Zhou Shu couldn’t help asking.
Compared to the reason Ji Lutian had left the brocade pouch for Yao Qing, he was more concerned about how Ji Lutian lived from ancient times to the present.
In terms of the Martial Dao, he was a Grotto-Heaven Master. His lifespan was less than ten thousand years. In fact, so far, no Grotto-Heaven Master could live to ten thousand years.
It had been more than ten thousand years.
“I made a deal with him,” Ji Lutian said slowly.
“Him?” Zhou Shu frowned slightly.
“Yes,” Ji Lutian continued. “Although I asked a tiger for its skin, I had no choice.”
Zhou Shu’s expression became incomparably grave. His guess was indeed correct.
The him that Ji Lutian was talking about was really…
Yang Hong looked at Ji Lutian and then at Zhou Shu.
He didn’t understand what they were talking about.
Even Yang Hong didn’t understand, let alone Tang Tang and Yao Qing.
Yao Qing had a lot to ask his father, but when he saw Zhou Shu speak, he was unwilling to interrupt him.
He didn’t know why he respected Zhou Shu so much.
Of course, he didn’t know that this was the aftereffect of Zhou Shu using the law of the ‘Jie’ syllable on him.
Zhou Shu frowned. “You had no choice? Have you forgotten what happened back then?”
He was already suppressing his anger. If not for the fact that it was just a phantom in front of him, he would have beaten him up.
Back then, billions of lives of the ancient races had died at the hands of the people from beyond the heavens. Ji Lutian had personally experienced it!
But in order to survive, he had actually made a deal with that person. Zhou Shu couldn’t accept this no matter what!
Forced?
There were many unavoidable things in this world!
If he used this as an excuse, then was the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven forced to make things difficult for the Ten Nations’ alliance army?
Was Tang Lan forced to deal with him?
Was Shang Qiuzi forced to betray his ally and kill the Tang family?
“I didn’t forget!” Ji Lutian’s expression was also grave. He almost growled, “If I had forgotten, you wouldn’t have seen me today!
“I told you. I had no choice! I never betrayed this world!”
“Ji Lutian, I don’t want to suspect you, but you have to give me a reason!” Zhou Shu said. “The sacrifices of so many people can’t be in vain!”
“I’ll give you a reason.” Ji Lutian nodded. “I left the King of Men Seal to give you an explanation. Apart from you, no one can discover the remnant soul I left in the King of Men Seal.”
Ji Lutian waved his hand, and a force enveloped him and Zhou Shu.
As for Yang Hong, Tang Tang, Yao Qing, they were isolated.
“Say, Yao Qing, the brocade pouch your father left behind doesn’t seem to be for you to save your mother.” Yang Hong watched as Zhou Shu’s figure was enveloped by light, but he wasn’t anxious.
Ever since Zhou Shu returned, killed the master of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, Tang Lan, in public, and forced back five Grotto-Heaven Masters, Yang Hong and the others’ confidence in him had reached an unprecedented level.
They felt that the current Zhou Shu was invincible.
No one could threaten his life.
Moreover, Zhou Shu was only enveloped by light. Although he couldn’t hear anything, he could still see Zhou Shu’s figure.
If anything really happened, he would definitely attack immediately.
Yao Qing gave Yang Hong a fierce look and ignored him.
Tang Tang looked left and right. Yang Hong had already interacted with Yao Qing during the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, so he was naturally not unfamiliar with him.
But Tang Tang didn’t know Yao Qing. He was very curious. Didn’t Yang Hong and the others fight the most fiercely with the Demon Realm?
Why is King of Men Yang Hong so close with a demonic beast?
Could it be that the superintendent didn’t wrong them?
Do they really deserve to die?
Tang Tang immediately shook his head. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he still had to admit that Yang Hong and the others were not the kind of people who colluded with the demonic beasts to betray the human race.
Some people might not like them, but they had to acknowledge their charisma.
King of Men Yang Hong, Invincible God of War Mi Ziwen, Sea-Pacifying Godly Pillar Meng Bai, and Heavenly Saber Sun Gongping were all such people.
“Yang Hong, you’re wrong.” Zhou Shu’s voice suddenly sounded. At some point, the light enveloping him had disappeared.
Ji Lutian’s phantom had already disappeared.
“Father!” Yao Qing shouted as his expression changed.
“Your Highness, what did I do wrong?” Yang Hong said nervously.
“The brocade pouch Ji Lutian left behind is indeed for Yao Qing to save his mother,” Zhou Shu said. A solemn expression flashed across the depths of his eyes as he continued, “Yao Qing’s mother is trapped here.
“What happened just now can only be considered an accident. Ji Lutian didn’t expect me to be here.”
Zhou Shu didn’t seem willing to mention what had just happened. He looked at Yang Hong and said, “In order to save Yao Qing’s mother, I need you to cooperate with him.”
“No problem.” Yang Hong patted his chest. “His Highness, tell me. What should I do?”
Yang Hong would definitely not say no to Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu said to Yao Qing, “Yao Qing, according to your father’s brocade pouch, drip your blood essence on the King of Men Seal.”
Yao Qing recovered from the excitement of their father’s appearance and disappearance. He nodded and cut his left palm with his right hand. Blood instantly flowed down.
Yang Hong took out the King of Men Seal and caught the blood.
Buzz—
Yao Qing’s blood landed on the King of Men Seal. Suddenly, it seemed to boil. The King of Men Seal trembled slightly, and in an instant, it evaporated the blood.
At the same time, from the King of Men Seal, a light shone on the mountain under their feet. The mountain instantly became transparent, revealing the interior.
There was a sleeping woman. She was lying quietly in the middle of the mountain with her eyes closed. Above the woman’s head was a floating mirror.
