Chapter 1157 - The Ye Clan From The Green Lotus Domain (2)
"Brother Ye, are you saying that the mighty figures from 30,000 years ago were all captured by the people from the Great Void?"
"It"s very possible," Ye Wusheng nodded and said, "The lifespan of a Venerable Master is close to 30,000 years; it"s predestined. Perhaps, everything is a cycle of reincarnation."
The younger cultivator sighed. "Our Ye clan finally produced a Venerable Master after 30,000 years…"
"Let"s not talk about that for now. There"s movement."
The duo exchanged a look before flying toward the lake.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A commotion rang from within an ice block.
Since the duo did not know Duanmu Sheng was trapped inside, they were puzzled by the commotion. They continued flying toward the island in the center of the lake.
After flying for a quarter of an hour, Ye Wusheng raised his hand. "Stop."
Ye Wusheng looked at the island; he thought it was strange. "The area up ahead is frozen by Lu Wu. Why did it do this?"
"It"s probably to show its might as a beast emperor. Brother Ye, look at the fishes in the lake; they"re all frozen to death. This is an example of the law of the jungle…"
Yu Wusheng looked at him and said, "No. The beast emperor doesn"t care about these small fishes and shrimps… It"s strange…"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The commotion grew louder and louder.
Ye Wusheng frowned. "Someone"s here. Let"s go and take a look."
The duo flew over and landed in front of the block of ice.
Suddenly, Lu Wu swooped down from the sky, parting the clouds. It said in a thunderous voice before it landed, "Scram!"
Lu Wu swiped its claws at the duo.
Bang! Bang!
Ye Wusheng hurriedly brought his astrolabe out.
Alas, his companion was not so lucky due to his weaker cultivation. Although he had also brought out his astrolabe, just a swipe from Lu Wu"s claws dented his astrolabe, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Lu Wu!" Ye Wusheng roared.
Boom!
Lu Wu landed on the ground. It lowered its head, and its eyes shone brilliantly as it looked at the two humans who were like flies. "Lowly… humans… Get out… of… my territory!"
Ye Wusheng flew up until he drew level with Lu Wu before he said, "Lu Wu, I am Ye Wusheng from the Ye clan. You have to think it through before acting…"
"Ye… Zheng…"
"I come in peace. Venerable Master Ye has ordered me to look for you. One month later, he will be having a Dao discussion with Venerable Master Qin at Mount Qingyun. He wants me to invite you to the Dao discussion…" Ye Wusheng said.
"A tiny... reptile... thinks… it"s worthy… to have a… Dao discussion… with… me?" Lu Wu said.
"Today is different from the past. Lu Wu, do you think you can return to the depths of the Unknown Land? You"re a majestic beast emperor; don"t you feel aggrieved having to hide from both your kind and the humans?" Ye Wusheng asked.
Lu Wu remained silent as though it was thinking about something.
Upon seeing this, Ye Wusheng seized the chance and said, "Since you can"t return to the depths of the Unknown Land, you can only cooperate with humans. Venerable Master Ye from the Ye clan is the most sincere…"
Lu Wu still did not say anything.
Ye Wusheng said, "Think about it carefully…"
Lu Wu asked, "What… if… I don"t… agree…"
Ye Wusheng replied, "Venerable Master Ye won"t force you. However, humans will only continuously hara.s.s you. If I can find you, the others will be able to find you as well. Do you think you"ll be able to hide for the rest of your life?"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The commotion from within the ice block grew louder and louder.
Ye Wusheng looked at the ice block in confusion; he could tell something was amiss.
At this time, Lu Wu turned around and said, "Leave… Tell Ye… Zheng… he"s… not worthy…"
"You!" Ye Wusheng did not expect this outcome.
Suddenly!
Bang!
Duanmu Sheng broke out of Lu Wu"s ice seal and flew up into the sky. The Overlord Spear in his hand looked like a golden dragon at this moment. At the same time, the purple smoke snaked around his body like two purple dragons. His eyes were dark, and his body was shrouded in a murderous aura.
If one were to look closely, one would see faint blue light flas.h.i.+ng within the purple dragons.
"He"s possessed?" Ye Wusheng frowned.
Currently, Duanmu Sheng, who had broken out of the ice seal, saw everyone as his enemies.
"Die!" Duanmu Sheng gripped his Overlord Spear and charged toward Ye Wusheng and his companion.
Lu Wu suddenly raised its paw.
Bang!
Lu Wu smacked Duanmu Sheng down from the sky into the frozen lake.
The layer of ice on the surface of the lake shattered immediately.
Then, Lu Wu turned to Ye Wusheng and growled. "I said… leave…"
Ye Wusheng gritted his teeth as he glared at Lu Wu. "Lu Wu, you"ll regret this!"
Following that, he brought his companion and rushed to the sh.o.r.e.
…
When they arrived at the sh.o.r.e, Ye Wusheng helped his companion to descend to the ground as he said, "I didn"t expect Lu Wu to be so ungrateful!"
Ye Wusheng"s companion coughed before he said, "Brother Ye, what should we do now?"
Ye Wusheng suddenly said, "That person should be from the golden lotus domain. He possessed a very strong Great Void energy…"
"How"s that possible?"
"You don"t understand; I"ll explain later… I"m just curious why Lu Wu is entangled with a possessed human… How interesting would it be if the various Venerable Masters learn about it?"
"Brother Ye, you"re saying…"
"Based on his appearance, he must have only demonized not too long ago. His corrosive energy is very strong, and he survived by relying on Lu Wu"s essence. Since Lu Wu did not eat him, he must have value… Now that Lu Wu"s location has been exposed, it would definitely move. I have to spread this news as fast as I can…" Ye Wusheng said as he raised two fingers and ignited a talisman.
Swoos.h.!.+
All of a sudden, the sound of something shooting toward Ye Wusheng rang in the air. He raised his head and saw an energy saber slas.h.i.+ng his way. He reacted quickly; he flipped in the air and dodged the energy saber.
At this moment, Cheng Huang lowered its huge head from above. The white-clad Ye Tian stood on its head and looked at Ye Wusheng.
Behind Ye Tianxin, Lu Zhou who was standing with one hand on his back was also looking at Ye Wusheng.
Ye Wusheng"s heart skipped a beat. The opponents were so close, and yet, he did not sense anything. Moreover, there was such a huge beast with them.
"Beast king."
Lu Zhou looked at Ye Wusheng and said, "I"m going to ask you a question; all you have to do is answer truthfully."
"Get lost. It"s best if you don"t interfere with the Ye clan"s affairs," Ye Wusheng said.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said indifferently, "You really don"t know how to appreciate favors…"
Lu Zhou raised his hand and launched a palm seal.
The golden palm seal shot toward Ye Wusheng.
Bang!
Despite blocking it with both his arms, Ye Wusheng was pushed back a few meters. His eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "Golden lotus cultivators!"
Lu Zhou tapped his toes lightly and flew off Cheng Huang"s head. The palm seal was meant to probe his opponent"s strength; he surmised the opponent had roughly eight Birth Charts. This meant the opponent had the same number of Birth Charts as him, but the difference was he possessed the supreme mystic power.
Lu Zhou flew into the sky and hovered at the waist of the towering ancient tree. His hand was like Mount Tai as he pressed them down.
Ye Wusheng did not expect his opponent to attack as soon as they met. He hurriedly manifested his astrolabe and placed it horizontally in the air.
The astrolabe grew larger, cutting the trees in its surroundings down.
Boom!
A bluish-golden palm seal pressed down on the astrolabe at this moment.
Creak!
Ye Wusheng grunted and fell on one knee.
Bang!
A hole appeared on the ground.
Ye Wusheng"s blood and Qi surged violently, and his Eight Extraordinary Meridians" flow was chaotic. His arms were numb, and there was a dent on his astrolabe. Finally, he said, "Stop! Please stop! I"ll talk! Senior, please ask your question."
Lu Zhou flicked his sleeve, and the palm seal disappeared. "You said earlier that the person who had just demonized recently is in the heart of the island?"
"Yes…" Ye Wusheng said with an unsightly expression on his face.
