1148 The Demon Ancestor, A Leopard Never Changes It Spots (2)
The strength of the enemy from beyond the heavens was unfathomable. Even the strength of a gigantic hand was almost unimaginable.
According to Ji Lutian, the gigantic hand had disturbed the Heavenly Dao and caused countless things to happen behind the scenes.
The appearance of the demonic beasts was the doing of the other party.
The gigantic hand had been fighting the Heavenly Dao of this world and had the upper hand.
The existence of Ji Lutian was also an obstacle to it.
It had wanted to eliminate Ji Lutian several times, but it had failed because of its serious injuries.
Therefore, it changed his strategy and targetted the Qingqiu King.
After the Qingqiu King revived with the golden lotus as her heart, she became one with it.
The golden lotus itself was a material from outside the world. This was the greatest hidden danger!
The gigantic hand of the enemy from beyond the heavens could control the golden lotus. Thus, the Qingqiu King fell under the other party’s control.
Later, the Qingqiu King became the Demon Ancestor.
Ji Lutian had no choice but to cooperate with the other party in exchange to keep on living.
All these years, Ji Lutian had been feigning civility with the other party, trying to delay the process of the demonic beasts destroying the human race.
There were many incidents during this period, and he couldn’t explain them one by one.
Ji Lutian had walked on the edge of life and death for countless years, but the gigantic hand was not a fool.
Therefore, it controlled the Demon Ancestor here. In order to save the Demon Ancestor, Ji Lutian used methods to restrain the gigantic hand and secretly arranged for Yao Qing to come here.
But unexpectedly, the gigantic hand had split its strength to control Tang Tang, intending to s.n.a.t.c.h the Demon Ancestor away.
That’s right. The sleeping woman in front of him was the Qingqiu King back then, who became the Demon Ancestor.
As for Yao Wenxin, whom Yao Qing thought was his biological mother, she was a demonic beast controlled by the gigantic hand. It had specially planted her beside Ji Lutian to monitor him.
Later, Ji Lutian instigated Yao Wenxin, and she died under the gigantic hand for going against it.
As for Yao Qing, he was indeed the son of Ji Lutian and the Qingqiu King. He was also the son of the Demon Ancestor, who was rumored to have no talent in the Martial Dao.
In order to prevent him from being harmed by the gigantic hand, Ji Lutian specially sealed him. It was not until more than a hundred years ago that he woke up Yao Qing.
There was naturally only one reason for this—Ji Lutian knew that Zhou Shu was about to appear.
Even after ten thousand years, Ji Lutian still placed his hopes on Zhou Shu.
It was precisely because he had fought alongside Zhou Shu back then that he knew even more clearly that only Zhou Shu could deal with the gigantic hand. Only Zhou Shu could save this world.
I didn’t expect so many things to happen in the past ten thousand years, Zhou Shu thought. Ji Lutian and Bai Qianqian went to restrain the gigantic hand together. These two b.a.s.t.a.r.ds didn’t even tell me where they were restraining it!
Do they think that I’m not a match for the gigantic hand with my current strength?
Zhou Shu was annoyed.
He knew that the two of them had good intentions. Moreover, the two of them had lived since ancient times. After so many years of cultivation, their true strength was definitely not weak.
But Zhou Shu was not an ordinary martial artist. These two people have taken matters into their own hands. I must scold them when I find them!
Ji Lutian, oh Ji Lutian, you’re so carefree. Why did you leave your wife and child with me?
I’m not a nanny. Take care of your own woman and son yourself!
Although Zhou Shu thought this, he still sighed. His hands emitted a light that completely enveloped the Qingqiu King’s body.
Her heart was the golden lotus, a mysterious material from outside the world, and the consciousness born from the golden lotus was affected by the gigantic hand.
The opportunity that Ji Lutian and Bai Qianqian were fighting for was to let the Qingqiu King escape the control of the gigantic hand and regain consciousness.
And they required Zhou Shu’s help.
After all, only Zhou Shu had once processed a material like the golden lotus, causing its consciousness to disappear completely.
This was how the King of Men Seal came about.
Although Ji Lutian also knew how to forge and had deep attainments, he still couldn’t do what Zhou Shu had done back then.
“Remember, you owe me a favor.”
Zhou Shu first sealed the Qingqiu King. As for reforging her heart, it would have to wait until he returned.
There was still a small problem that needed to be resolved.
Boom!
Yang Hong and Yao Qing were sent flying, and both of them spat out a mouthful of blood.
One against two, they actually couldn’t defeat Tang Tang!
Tang Tang’s cultivation was slightly inferior to theirs, and he was seriously injured.
But he had become so difficult to deal with!
“Roar!” Tang Tang let out a beast-like roar.
Yao Qing cursed inwardly, Why does this guy look more like a demonic beast than me?
“Again!” Yao Qing roared. His body instantly became thicker as he charged at Tang Tang.
Bang bang bang!
The sounds of fighting rang out. Yao Qing roared repeatedly and exchanged injuries with Tang Tang.
Bang!
In the blink of an eye, Yao Qing was sent flying again and spat out a few more mouthfuls of blood.
He had the bloodline of a demonic beast, with thick skin and thick flesh, but he was actually unable to suppress Tang Tang in melee combat.
Zhou Shu shook his head slightly.
No wonder it was said that the son of the Demon Ancestor didn’t have any Martial Dao talent. Although it was partly because of the fake news spread by Ji Lutian, Yao Qing’s apt.i.tude was really average.
Logically speaking, with the bloodlines of the Qingqiu King and Ji Lutian, Yao Qing should be a Martial Dao genius, and his strength should be more than that.
The Qingqiu King and Ji Lutian were both one-in-a-million geniuses.
It could only be said that there was really no logic for apt.i.tude.
“I might not be able to defeat Tang Lan or Tang Qianluo, but how can I not even deal with you, Tang Tang?” Yang Hong roared.
The Crimson Firmament Sword in his hand transformed into a sword beam that filled the sky and slashed at Tang Tang.
At the same time, the King of Men Seal appeared above his head.
Using the King of Men Seal would exhaust him greatly. He would probably run out of energy after the attack.
But he wasn’t afraid. Zhou Shu was holding the fort anyway.
He, Yang Hong, also cared about his reputation. It was fine if he couldn’t defeat Grotto-Heaven Masters, but Tang Tang was just a small fry. If he couldn’t even defeat him, he would be too embarra.s.sed as the King of Men!
The power of the King of Men Seal erupted, and Yang Hong’s aura rose steadily.
“Die!” Yang Hong slashed out with unparalleled might.
“Roar!” Tang Tang roared at the sky. Countless scales instantly grew on the surface of his body. These scales shone brightly and looked extremely hard.
Boom!
Yang Hong’s peerless sword strike landed on Tang Tang.
The scales on his body crackled as they fell off continuously. Tang Tang took a few steps back.
But it was obvious that he wasn’t fatally injured.
He’s fine? Is Tang Tang also a human demon? Yang Hong’s eyes widened in surprise. What’s with his scales?
“Your Highness, Tang Tang is a little strange. I can’t defeat him!” Yang Hong shouted. His face was important, but his life was more important.
In any case, he wasn’t afraid of losing face in front of Zhou Shu.
Yang Hong comforted himself.
Zhou Shu’s lips curled up into a smile.
Yang Hong hadn’t changed, but it wasn’t bad. At least he didn’t become like Tang Lan and the others.
“Stand back for now,” Zhou Shu said calmly.
He held the Qingqiu King and the Reincarnation Mirror in one hand and took a step forward. With the other hand, he held the Celestial Thearch Sword and slashed forward lightly.
A sword beam cut through the sky and instantly landed on Tang Tang.
Tang Tang’s scales instantly split apart, and countless wounds appeared on his body.
Boom!
Tang Tang slammed into the ground, creating a three-meter-deep pit.
Yang Hong had used the King of Men Seal but failed to deal with Tang Tang. However, Zhou Shu had dealt with him with a single strike.
Just as Yang Hong was about to praise him, a phantom suddenly flew out from Tang Tang’s body and pounced at them with a powerful aura.
