In the tent outside the city, Di Xu was pushed to the ground and his nose hit the ground, causing blood stains.
The one who treated him so rudely was You Xuefeng, the strongest among the ten knights.
You Xuefeng, who has been released from the invisible state, looks like a man in his early thirties, wearing thick silver-white armor all over his body and a helmet on his head. Only a little flesh is exposed on his body. There is nothing immature on his handsome and young face.
Instead, it gives people a strange feeling of having experienced many vicissitudes of life. There is a new and quite shallow scar on the left face. The blood stain has become scarred, which looks a bit scary.
You Xuefeng sat down on the chair in the tent, picked up the wine bottle next to him, took two swigs of it, and breathed a sigh of relief.
The wine drops splashed onto the wound on his face, causing You Xuefeng to feel pain and couldn't help but laugh: "There are some capable masters in Cangling Continent. He can actually hurt me. That person is not simple, not simple."
Di Xu said coldly: "There are countless masters in Cangling Continent, and there are people who are stronger than my brothers."
You Xuefeng answered with great interest: "Oh, really? That's really interesting. If I have the chance in the future, I really want to see it."
"They are all well-connected people. Don't embarrass them." Di Xu continued to excuse Lin Hanqing and others, "As long as you agree to let them go, I will return to Penglai with you and swear in front of my mother's grave,
I will never covet the throne of Penglai Kingdom."
You Xuefeng clicked his tongue and said in wonder: "The conditions are really favorable. Why didn't you tell Zhong Lin when he came last time? Even he and my few unsatisfied disciples came back in a state of embarrassment.
I thought you were already very strong and asked me to put down many things at hand and come to you, but I didn’t expect that I was so disappointed.”
Di Xu stood up and frowned: "Don't talk nonsense, these are my conditions, it's up to you whether I agree or not."
You Xuefeng suddenly fell silent, his pupils shrank rapidly, and his murderous intent appeared.
The moment Di Xu sensed danger, You Xuefeng quickly appeared on Di Xu's right side and hit Di Xu on the shoulder with his elbow.
Di Xu felt as if his body was being pressed down by a big mountain. He screamed, his legs went weak and he fell to his knees.
You Xuefeng said coldly: "Who told you to stand up? You don't deserve to look up at me!"
Di Xu felt that his arm had been dislocated. He had to gasp for breath in severe pain to suppress his screams.
You Xuefeng snorted lightly and continued: "Don't think that you are still qualified to negotiate with me. It's not a question of whether you come with me or not. It's that I don't want to take you back at all. A waste like you looks too annoying. On the contrary
, the remaining five people are different. Their physiques are all very good, and those five people have defeated my apprentices respectively. They are all strong. As long as they are strong, they have value."
"You guys, are you thinking..." Di Xu looked up at You Xuefeng in shock, his heart filled with fear.
Has that plan begun to be realized? No wonder the Penglai Kingdom is starting to make moves and appears frequently on Cangling Continent.
They are no longer satisfied with controlling Penglai Kingdom, they want to use that plan to control the world...
You Xuefeng punched Di Xu hard in the eye socket, and said angrily: "I told you, you are not worthy of looking directly at me!"
Di Xu groaned, his head was hit and he was dizzy. The edge of his right eye suddenly cracked and swollen. Blood penetrated into his eye, making him temporarily unable to see with his right eye.
Seeing Di Xu's embarrassed appearance, You Xuefeng seemed to feel a sense of enjoyment and sat back in his seat with a smile, continuing to drink.
Di Xu was silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed and said: "You Xuefeng, don't be too proud and don't forget the purpose of your trip, which is to take me back and make me swear in front of my mother's grave that I will not fight for the imperial power.
Only then can my eldest brother sit back and continue his plan with peace of mind. You said that I am not qualified to negotiate with you? If I die here, how will you explain to my eldest brother? You may not be afraid of anyone in the world, but you can't afford to offend my eldest brother!"
After saying all this, Di Xu was ready to be beaten
However, You Xuefeng surprisingly did not take action this time. Instead, he followed Di Xu and smiled: "Indeed, I'm afraid that if I can't handle the emperor's orders alone, my head will definitely not be saved. But, you did something wrong."
"
Saying that, You Xuefeng slowly came to Di Xu's side, crouched down and said: "My mission is to 'make you swear to your mother', not to 'take you back and make you swear to your mother'.
do you understand?"
Di Xu was a little confused at first, but suddenly an extremely terrifying thought flashed through his mind, and he said in a trembling voice: "How...could you..."
You Xuefeng smiled but did not answer, and said loudly: "Here, bring that thing over here."
Someone answered outside the tent, and the footsteps faded away.
Not long after, the sound of footsteps was heard. Di Xu hurriedly turned around like crazy. The tent opened and a man walked in holding a big black package.
Di Xu breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that You Xuefeng would come in carrying a coffin. Judging from the size of the package, it was probably not his mother's bones. From the looks of it, it might be a memorial tablet.
Just as Di Xu was thinking this, You Xuefeng had already torn open the package and threw the contents in front of Di Xu with a thud.
White skull!
The moment he saw that thing, Di Xu felt a loud bang in his head, and all his thoughts seemed to stop in an instant, giving him an unreal feeling of being in a dream.
You Xuefeng touched the package again, took out something like a jade plaque and threw it on the ground in front of Di Xu: "These things are enough, I swear."
Di Xu picked up the jade plaque with an expressionless face and immediately knew everything.
This jade pendant was a token of love between Di Xu's father and mother. It was also worn by Di Xu on the body of Di Xu's mother when she passed away.
Now that this jade pendant appeared here, together with the skull, and what You Xuefeng said, Di Xu immediately understood everything.
Di Xu suddenly took two long breaths, smiled bitterly and said to the skull: "Mom, we meet again."
After saying that, he gently placed the skull on the ground. Seeing that the skull seemed to be partially broken due to You Xuefeng's throw just now, Di Xu still didn't do anything too drastic.
"Mom, I'm very afraid that if I don't swear to you, I will die." As he said that, Di Xu suddenly kowtowed three times to the skull solemnly and said word by word, "I, Di Xu, swear that I will never die in this life."
I will not fight for my brother's throne. If I violate this oath, I will be struck by lightning from heaven and die badly."
You Xuefeng laughed loudly and clapped his hands and said: "Not bad, not bad, we've got it. Since you are so afraid of death, I will let you live. Remember to thank me more in the future."
Then he strode out and said loudly: "Young boys, let's sail home!"
After Di Xu swore, he remained in a daze for a long time before suddenly digging holes on the ground with his bare hands. His skin was torn and his nails were almost broken, but this pain did not stimulate any expression on Di Xu's face.
After digging a big hole, Di Xu put the skull into it and put the jade around his neck.
After the burial, Di Xu kowtowed twice more
Suddenly she smiled, just pinched the jade pendant around her neck, and said softly: "Mom, it's useless. I can't bury your body. Now I can't bury your body. It's really useless. It's useless! It's because of me.
It’s useless, I want my mother’s blessing even more. Your spirit in heaven can help me occupy a place in the underworld. Maybe it will come in handy when I regain the throne and get struck by lightning in the future.”
After saying this, Di Xu stood up steadily and ran out of the tent quickly, so determined that he didn't even look back.
He will no longer be sad because his heart can no longer bear the sadness
All Di Xu can think about now is his own plan to hunt the country!
;;;;;;;;;Ye Guhong and Qian Xiaoshan waited outside the tent for a long time, but did not see anyone coming in or out, and they were very puzzled.
Didn't they get up this early in the morning? Why was there no one there?
Not seeing anyone outside made Ye Guhong feel scared, so he did not dare to act rashly.
Suddenly, a sound of clothes was heard from behind
Ye Guhong looked back and was stunned.
When the visitor came out of Yun Su, Ye Sulan also stood there with a smile.
"How can I not be included in saving people?" Ye Sulan sniffed and laughed.
Ye Guhong lowered his voice and said viciously: "Why are you here! It's very dangerous here. Your injuries haven't healed yet, so you can't cope here."
Ye Sulan looked up and down at Ye Guhong, who was covered in blood, and shook her head and said: "Now it looks like you are more seriously injured than me. Hey, your healing method is really effective. Although the process is very painful, now I can fully control the spiritual energy in my body."
The flow of breath has restored at least 90% of the strength."
"Okay..." Ye Guhong couldn't resist her and could only agree.
Ye Sulan's third-level spiritual master strength, even if it is only used at 90%, is definitely stronger than Ye Guhong. Therefore, Ye Guhong has no reason to reject her at this moment.
Just as the group was about to take the risk to explore near the tent, they saw Di Xu rushing out.
A few girls were startled and rushed out immediately.
Di Xu turned around and saw a few people coming, and suddenly smiled softly and said: "You are here."
Ye Guhong was the first, frowning at Di Xu's severely injured face and asked: "What is going on?"
Di Xu didn't want to say more and simply said: "Several of our brothers were captured in Penglai Kingdom. The ship has left for a long time. I am about to go to rescue them."
"I'll go with you!" Qian Xiaoshan was the first to say
Ye Guhong followed closely: "I want to go too, how can I stand by and watch when my brother is in trouble?"
"I want to go too." Ye Sulan took Ye Guhong's arm and said next to him.
Ye Guhong knew that it was a waste of words to persuade her, so he simply smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Yun Su said calmly: "Take me with you. Sister Sulan's injury has not recovered yet and needs constant conditioning with pure spiritual energy."
Ye Guhong nodded and said: "One more person means more strength, let's go rescue people together!"
Looking at these people in front of him, Di Xu suddenly felt touched
If these people help, Di Xu's plan to hunt the country may go more smoothly.
It's just that Di Xu will never involve his friends in the country's war.
