Chapter 22 An Amazing Blow
The man in front of him was dressed the same as the old man sitting on the stage. If examined carefully, the facial features of the two people were extremely similar. However, the old man on the stage was weary, his face drooped. But the man on his side was in the pink of health, and his body was sturdy and straight. This was totally a person in two different states.
“The person on the stage should be the real senior of the Immortal Palace! I am afraid he was substituted and transferred here by you!” Lyu Liang looked coldly at the newly appeared “Immortal Danyuan”. “Also, although I can’t see through your cultivation, it is definitely not the Fairy Immortal Stage! Otherwise, with that blow just now, my souls should have shattered and vanished!”
“Uh-huh, you little kid’s thinking is quite meticulous! Yes, my Thousand Silk Mask can only imitate the appearance and cultivation, but it can’t really improve my strength. However, even if you are at the peak of Original Devil, I am now in a good position. My Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation is more than enough to kill you!” “Immortal Danyuan” looked arrogant, at the same time, his body figure blurred. When it became clear, it had completely turned into another person.
This was a chunky black-robed man, with a big fat ear to describe him was not too much. His pair of small triangular eyes were now beaming with a sullen look. The blue light that just attacked Lyu Liang also returned to his hand. It turned out to be a slender drill glint in a faint blue light.
“This is your true face? Haha, are you a pig demon, or the reincarnation of the pigs in your previous life?” Lyu Liang’s face was filled with ridicule, his tone full of disdain and contempt.
Both the enemy and the friend present at the scene stunned for a moment. Everyone could see that the strength of the two was different like heaven and earth! In such a situation of life and death, Lyu Liang still had the mood to provoke the opponent. He either had a strong ace card or just made himself look fat by slapping his own face.
The way Shangguan Ying looked at Lyu Liang became more and more confused. It seemed that she was getting more and more perplexed by this person in front of her.
“Kid, is it a quick tongue before you die? If you are now willing to clear the bonding blood on the Demon Emperor Horn, and then dedicate it to me. I can guarantee that I will leave here, and also let you two live! If not...” The black-robed fat man’s eyes were already green with envy, he was obviously irritated by Lyu Liang’s words, but he did not dare to act rashly. After all, the Demon Emperor Horn was really important to him.
Since the failure of the first blow to kill Lyu Liang, the black-robed fat man was a bit confused in his mind. By right, at the Peak Original Devil stage, there was basically no time to resist at all. Once Lyu Liang was hit by that blow, he could not escape the end of death. But Lyu Liang? First, he retreated at a very strange speed. After that, he even moved to block the blow. Although he fell to the ground in the end, he obviously had slight injuries only.
“This kid’s body movement is strange, and his body’s strength is unusual too. No wonder it’s a unique technique of refining the body from the Devil Clan. Most probably the advanced type. In case he takes things too hard and would rather die to ruin the Demon Emperor Horn, my responsibility can’t be salvaged even if I die for hundred times!” The black-robed man was very depressed indeed. Therefore, even if Lyu Liang’s speech was already challenging, he had to suppress his anger and be patient to induce and lure him.
“So, if I give you the Demon Emperor Horn, you will let us leave without any harm?” Lyu Liang frowned, holding his chin, in a thoughtful expression.
However, Shangguan Ying was anxious! How could this guy be brave for a second, and so stupid and ignorant for another second! It was obviously life and death endless ending! As the man was daring to show his face, it meant that he did not intend to allow any mouth to leave here.
Just when Shangguan Ying was about to give a reminder, Lyu Liang’s hand gently pinched her hand and shook it slightly.
“Well? Such soft, nice and smooth little hand!” Although Lyu Liang just wanted to give her a hint, the feeling of holding the hand still made his mind bewildered.
Here, Shangguan Ying blushed scarlet. Her parents died early, her aunt and she depended on each other for survival. Since young, never had she touched a boy’s hand. But today, well. Not just the hand... At this moment, she understood the meaning of Lyu Liang. She quickly bowed her head and ignored him.
“Kid, I can tell you! The ban here can completely isolate the explosion of the aura and the detection of Divine Sense from outside. I will kill you all first, then take the Demon Emperor Horn and leave. That seemed to be a good way! If it is not for the hard part of removing the bonded blood from the horn, I am too lazy to talk nonsense with you! Are you done thinking! “The black-robed fat man begun to get impatient, but suddenly his eyes became bright. “Hey, how did your aura return to the Early-stage of Original Devil? Haha, I knew, your cultivation was improved temporarily by some Cultivation Method or magic treasure!”
At this moment, thirty minutes passed. Without any surprise, Lyu Liang’s aura began to plummet, and in the blink of an eye, his cultivation returned to the Early-stage of Original Devil.
“Oh, you are really right. I will consider it for a while, anyway, you don’t have to worry about someone discovering the situation here. However, you’d better not have any other bad ideas. Anyway, if I can’t live, I must burst that Demon Emperor Horn together with me. My life is cheap. It’s either all or nothing!”
“Fine! I shall give you another thirty minutes. You must give me a reply! Or you’d better prepare to burst yourself!” The black-robed fat man, who was afraid that the Demon Emperor Horn would be destroyed, squeezed another sentence with a livid face.
Lyu Liang smiled, and everything seemed to be in his grasp. Later, he turned and took out a small ball from his arms, which was the Emperor Devil Pearl containing his mother’s soul remnant.
Lyu Liang first looked at the remnant soul that jumped up and down, and then whispered to the pearl, “Mother, rest assured. I am still waiting for our family to reunite. I am not so easy to die!”
Lyu Liang looked up at Shangguan Ying, no longer in his joyful look. He handed the Emperor Devil Pearl to her hand very seriously. At the same time, he passed the voice, “Fairy Shangguan, there is a remnant soul of my mother inside. In case anything happens to me, I will have to trouble you to use the Body Enforcing Talisman and help me to protect my mother by the way. Even if I am really dead, I will not forget your kindness!”
“Ah? Your, your mother?” Shangguan Ying took over the pearl, and her face was once again blushing red. She suddenly had a feeling, that the remnant soul flying up and down seemed to be carefully looking at her too. This feeling was too strange, but she couldn’t refuse either.
“Are you going to fight with your life? Don’t you have any ace card left? You, you don’t be stupid. If not, you just give him the Demon Emperor Horn, we shall just do step by step!” After a short moment of absent-minded, Shangguan Ying was in a hurry again. Somehow, she suddenly felt a little flustered. At this moment, Lyu Liang’s serious look and words suddenly made her miss that idiot who was so stupid and innocent.
“Do not worry. I do have an ace card left. But it is a one-off, and I have never used it before. I don’t know what the result will be. But I will fight for it. Even if I can’t destroy him, I will break the prohibition of this stone hall. I believe, as long as the ban is broken, with the perceptual level of Almighty Immortal, they will be able to detect what happened here. In this way, you will be saved.” Lyu Liang smiled and blinked, sending his relaxed voice to her.
“Ah? Your, your ace card so unreliable? You, you don’t die!” Shangguan Ying’s heart suddenly had a strange feeling. It was a heavy feeling that she never felt before! Even when her aunt left, and she cried painstakingly, she never had such an overwhelmed feeling.
“You see, we have no choice. So, you better pray for me. If we’re lucky, let’s go out together! By the way, there is another important thing! In case, I mean, in case we really escape from here. Any outsiders we encountered, including your master, can you help me keep the secrets?” Lyu Liang’s eyes were tranquil and clear. It seemed to beam with confidence and domineering!
“I promise you! I am willing to make a life-bonded vow. What happened here today, about your business, I will never mention it to anyone other than you!” Shangguan Ying’s tears have begun to well up in the eyes. She did not expect that at this time, Lyu Liang actually thought about how to keep her alive!
Almost without any hesitation, she almost just blurted out. Shangguan Ying promised! At this moment, she felt that even if Lyu Liang proposed to be her Taoist lover, it was not something that could not be considered!
Lyu Liang felt as if he was relieved, and his face was replaced with a stupid look. Then he turned and went to the black-robed fat man who had already endured him to the limit.
“Well, I hope your words count. I will give you the Demon Emperor Horn now, and eliminate my blood. But, why do I have to believe you? You have to give me some benefits right!” Lyu Liang flew slowly, his vigilant eyes stared at the pair of triangular eyes of the black-robed fat man.
“Well, you kid had made the right choice! As for the benefits, I have five upper-grade Bottleneck-breaking Pills here, and I will give it to you. If I don’t talk about credit, I can’t afford such a cost price!” The black-robed fat man was finally relieved. He was really afraid that Lyu Liang would fight hard in the end, or he asked for nothing and made an agreement. Then he would ponder, was this kid tricky?
Now, this kid had raised his conditions. He seemed to be very cautious. He must be sincere! The fat man was not afraid of him having conditions, but afraid of him not mentioning it! The five upper-grade Bottleneck-breaking Pills did make him feel distressed. However, compared to the benefits of bringing back the Demon Emperor Horn, it was definitely not the same level.
He had suppressed his cultivation to mix into the Sword Character Immortal Palace. He had stayed at such a nerve-racking place for nearly a thousand years. Everything was for the successful moment of retreating! Worth it!
The black-robed fat man waved his hand, and a small bottle flew to Lyu Liang. At the same time, he also thought about it. He only paid him five upper-grade medicinal pills. When he got hold of the Demon Emperor Horn, he would kill them all!
Lyu Liang reached out and received the pills. His Divine Sense scanned the bottle, and then he threw it to Shangguan Ying below. He continued to fly slowly. At the same time, the Demon Emperor Horn that exuded the blue light appeared in his palm.
At this moment, the black-robed fat man had put down the alert, and his mind had been filled with a huge sense of accomplishment. From accepting the master’s task to later becoming Immortal Danyuan. He raised the Demon Emperor Horn here, for nearly a thousand years! Just for this moment! He could imagine that when he triumphantly returned, the master’s praising look, the admiration of the brothers and sisters. And the wealth and magic treasure that would soon belong to him...
At this point, something happened! Lyu Liang’s body exuded a thick and black Qi, and instantly he disappeared. The next moment, he was already standing in front of the black-robed fat man, in a distance less than ten feet! The pair of dark wings behind him, now faintly exuded a horrible aura that could destroy heaven and earth.
The cold sweat of the black-robed fat man came down instantly! He had a hunch. The horrible aura must be at least from the stage of Fairy Immortal, and it was the premonition of a coming attack. If he were hit, his soul would shatter into pieces and vanish!
Unfortunately, everything was too late. He had already been stunned by the joy, and he couldn’t escape in time. He could only resist to his best and sacrificed his defending magic treasures to defend himself.
“Boom!” A bolt of silver lightning with the power of Fairy Immortal broke out. In an instant, the entire stone hall was filled with a shuddering aura. Another loud noise, the top of the stone hall, which was formerly dark and bottomless, leaked a piece of the sky at the moment.
The prohibition could not withstand such terrible pressure and had dissipated on its own. However, Lyu Liang and the black-robed fat man also disappeared into the air under this heaven ruining aura.
