The sun was hanging in the clear sky, and the sunlight shrouded the eaves of the houses on East Street, reflecting the ancient Bamboo Ling and A Man who were rushing on them. A Man turned his head to look at the two forces following behind him, and then looked back at the ancient Bamboo Ling.
"there!"
Aman raised his hand and pointed to the woods outside the city. Gu Zhuling nodded knowingly. As soon as the two of them ran out of the city, Hanxu, who was following behind, jumped at his feet and instantly transformed into a Maine Coon cat shape when he landed.
Looking for Kumu and leading his troops to jump over him, Hanxu turned his cat's eyes and caught up with Kumu and rushed to the woods outside the city. In the forest, Aman and Gu Zhuling looked at each other and jumped onto the ancient tree.
Finally, Aman lowered his head and looked at Guzhuling. As soon as Guzhuling felt the demon soldiers approaching, she jumped up and was about to climb up the branch where Aman was, but a pain in the corner of her eye caused her whole body to twitch.
With a "bang-dong" sound, Ancient Bamboo Ling fell to the ground, and the reverberation attracted Kumu's attention. Kumu raised his hand and waved, and the demon soldiers followed Kumu to surround the ancient Bamboo Ling that climbed up from the ground.
Gu Zhuling raised his hand and rubbed his eyes. For some reason, he had felt discomfort in his eyes since morning. The pain just now caused convulsions all over his body, which made Gu Zhuling look at Kumu uneasily.
Kumu has his life on his side and he doesn't talk nonsense. He draws his sword and points it at the ancient bamboo ling.
"My Holy Lady also invites the ancient leader to return to the workshop for a talk!"
The toughness in his words was self-evident. Gu Zhuling looked around at the demon soldier who followed Kumu and drew his sword and pointed it at him. She looked for the same murderous look on the demon soldier's face and frowned.
"I wonder if Sheng Ji has anything to do with you and has to invite me back to the workshop?"
"Well..."
In Chi Yujian, Kumu caught Gu Zhuling's subconscious action of holding the sword, laughed deeply, and the next second his eyes turned cold, and he swung his sword directly towards Gu Zhuling.
“We’ll know when the ancient leader returns!”
Kumu had long heard about Gu Zhuling's abilities, so he knew that it was better to strike first. However, Gu Zhuling's resistance was significantly weakened due to pain in the corners of his eyes.
Suddenly, there was a demon in the tree, and a dragon was fighting fiercely. On the tree, Aman took out a sugar ball that Yuan Zangxiang had given him in advance and stuffed it into his mouth. He felt that the sugar ball was sour and sweet.
Aman raised his eyebrows happily. To be happy in life, for her, it means having drama to watch, revenge to be revenged, and sweets to eat. But after eating, Aman still has not forgotten that she is the maker of the candy balls.
The family leaves a "cheap" husband.
After all, she only had candy balls to eat when her husband was here, so Aman found Kumu and forced Guzhu Ling to the trunk. He jumped with his feet, waved his right hand, and the coffin unsheathed and shot towards Kumu's back.
Kumu's soul was shaken, and he turned his head to face the coffin that was directly between his eyebrows. He was so frightened that he hid to the side. Aman saw the opportunity and grabbed the coffin instead. When Kumu regained his consciousness, he gathered his strength and swung again.
The sword energy hit his face, Kumu took three steps back, blocked it with his sword, and the two swords staggered and burst out with fire, exaggerating the coldness in Aman's eyes. Kumu's arm shook in fear, and his body was knocked away by the coffin.
The dead tree was broken with a "bang", and fallen leaves flew all over the sky. Under the fallen leaves, the bitter tree wiped the blood from the corner of its mouth, raised its eyes and stared at Aman who was blocking Gu Zhuling.
Looking for the coffin in Aman's hand, Kumu suddenly realized that he had accompanied Liu Jinlou to attack the Tianyao Sect during the Kyushu War three years ago, so he had seen the power of the coffin.
Now that Aman was joined by Gu Zhuling, he and the demon soldiers were unable to resist, so Kumu thought of Liu Jinlou's order and subconsciously clenched his sword.
"Oman?!"
Aman glanced at the movements in Kumu's hands, raised his eyebrows and raised his feet to take a step closer to Kumu, causing Kumu to hold Aman with a look of indifference on his face, and then he grasped the hilt of the sword and said.
"My Shengji said that we would only invite the ancient leader. If you let me..."
"What if I don't let you?"
While speaking, Aman glanced at Guzhuling, thinking of the secret fight between Guzhuling and the demon world. Aman looked back at Kumu, Kumu's heart sank, and he gritted his teeth.
"Aman, aren't you afraid that Sheng Ji will destroy you again?!"
The words came out of his mouth, which stimulated Aman to smile coldly.
"My young master is really afraid that she doesn't have that ability!"
At the same time, Aman lifted the coffin and waved it around. The sword light overflowed and forced the besieging demon soldiers to retreat. Aman dropped his sword and thrust it into the ground. He raised his arms to make the sword light hang in the air and condense.
Under the light of the sword, Aman formed a seal with his hands, summoned the spiritual flames and pointed his right hand upward at the same time. In an instant, the sword glowed with flames and turned into a rain of sharp swords, killing the demon soldiers and making them wail.
The ear-piercing laughter echoed with the ashes of the fireworks. Kumu found the demon soldiers falling down one by one. Fear arose in his heart. He raised his eyes to meet Aman, who was swinging his sword in the firelight.
With fierce moves, Kumu was defeated step by step. When Aman saw the ancient tree behind Kumu that was wrapped in spiritual flames, he let go of the coffin and hit Kumu on the right shoulder with his right fist.
Kumu couldn't bear the strength, and the sharp sword in his hand fell out of his palm and hit the ancient tree with his back. He felt the spiritual flames corroding his back. Kumu stepped forward suddenly, but Aman grabbed the sword and stabbed it into his chest.
A sudden spurt of blood resurfaced Aman's past memories, causing Aman to remember his father's self-immolation. He gritted his teeth and pinned Kumu's body to the tree with a sharp sword in his hand.
The flames quickly swallowed up the bitter wood and turned into a burst of green flames, illuminating the sadness in Aman's eyes and reflected in Guzhuling's eyes. Guzhuling captured Aman's hatred for the demon world, and uneasiness arose in his heart.
Three years ago, there was a chaotic war in Kyushu. The demon world and the underworld were killing Tianyao Sect. Although the immortal world was not directly involved, it was the one behind it. If Aman knew about it, the master would be afraid...
Shen Lingjian Gu Zhuling met Aman's eyes that turned around and said calmly.
"Young Master really hates demons to the core!"
Smelling that Gu Zhuling was being deliberate, Aman shrugged disapprovingly.
"Aren't you?"
Aman got straight to the point. Gu Zhuling was slightly startled, remembering her previous deal with Aman, looking around at the demon soldiers that were burned to ashes, and then looked back at Aman.
"So, young master, are you protecting me today?"
Their eyes met, and Aman smiled back.
“Take people’s money to help them eliminate disasters!”
In a nutshell, Gu Zhuling didn't think much about it, thinking that Aman was asking for wages from her, so she said.
"Then, young master, are you ready to follow me to meet the master?"
With the pun, Aman understood Gu Zhuling's intention to win over, but now she was even more confused about Liu Jinlou's backbiting, so she "tsk" and said hesitantly.
"Compared with your master, I am more curious now about Liu Jinlou's obsession with you!"
As he spoke, Aman glanced at the burnt bitter wood on the tree, and when he looked back into Gu Zhuling's eyes, the corner of his mouth curled up, causing Gu Zhuling to frown in surprise.
Seeing the interest on A Man's face, Gu Zhuling turned to look at Kumu, recalling the thrilling rescue he had just received from A Man, although he could not see what A Man's intention was.
But since he wants to cooperate, he might as well show some sincerity. As long as he can successfully hand over Aman to his master, then this will be a great achievement of his Dragon Clan.
From this, Gu Zhuling thought about the next plan and looked back at Aman.
"Young master, do you still remember the bowl of soup you fed Ye Hui this morning?"
With a profound meaning, Aman looked at the smile on Gu Zhuling's lips and asked back.
"What's the meaning?"
"This soup is poisonous!"
Of course Aman knew that the soup was poisonous, otherwise why would she save Gu Zhuling? She also understood Gu Zhuling's purpose of feeding Ye Hui to eat.
Just tell her that she is the beginning of it all, and since she has started it, finding the solution is what she must do next.
"So you can detoxify?"
"certainly!"
After smelling the affirmation of Guzhuling, Aman lowered his head and thought about the explanation recorded in ancient books that "the only way to cure the poison of dragons is its elixir", then raised his eyes and looked back at Guzhuling.
"It seems like Liu Jinlou took you back to take your life!"
Now that the matter has come to this, Ancient Bamboo Ling does not shy away from it. Although this dragon poison is the most poisonous in the world, it comes with the same price. The dragon contains poison, and its elixir detoxifies it.
How could the poison forged with life not be counterbalanced by life? Although he was not sure why Liu Jinlou suddenly changed his mind, one thing was certain, Ye Hui must have been poisoned by this time.
Once something happens to Ye Hui, his status as Lord Xingyao will inevitably trigger another struggle for power, which is another purpose of the master's plan.
