Chapter 311 Xiao Hei!
The upper half of Elder Yang"s face was still covered by a silver mask as usual, but Ye Zhen could tell from Elder Yang"s eyes that he frowned deeply in displeasure as he saw the unresponsive condition of this elder from Blood Devil Sect.
There were many things that Elder Yang wanted to ask this elder from the Blood Devil Sect, but this elder of the Blood Devil Sect certainly could not answer anything in this condition.
"How is it?" Elder Yang asked Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen shook his head and replied: "I already do everything I can do. Whip torture, acid poison, throw him into the freezing room... I even use a high-temperature heated knife to slice his tendon, but he is still not wake up."
Elder Yang stood up from his seat and approached the elder of the Blood Devil Sect, then examined his condition once more.
"Is this hypnosis technique? No... It seems like his consciousness, heart, and mind are locked in somewhere else. He cannot even feel any pain or suffering anymore. The person who did this to him is really amazing. You said the person who did this is a girl, right? Tell me everything you know about her! Name, appearance, everything..." Elder Yang said to Ye Zhen.
An image of the innocent-looking maiden with matchless beauty flashed in Ye Zhen"s mind once more and made him fall into a daze.
Elder Yang frowned again when Ye Zhen did not answer his question, so he glanced at Ye Zhen and called: "Ye Zhen?"
Ye Zhen woke up from his daze and become a bit fl.u.s.tered, but he quickly calmed himself down.
When Ye Zhen opened his mouth to answer Elder Yang"s question, his heart was refused his will to reveal anything about Tang Li Xue to Elder Yang.
Ye Zhen started to hesitate. He admired Elder Yang very much, but he did not want Elder Yang to know anything about Miss Xiao Xue.
Maybe it was because he was afraid that Elder Yang would hunt down Miss Xiao Xue.
"She is a really beautiful girl in a black cloak." In the end, Ye Zhen decided to only vaguely describe her appearance.
"A girl with a beautiful face? She did not wear any mask like a fox mask?" Elder Yang asked again with a skeptical tone.
"Uh... No." Ye Zhen answered half-heartedly.
At first, Xiao Xue wore a fox mask, but Ye Zhen broke it when he ambushed her from behind before, but Xiao Xue immediately replaced it and wore another fox mask after that. At least, Ye Zhen himself did not think he was lying since he saw Xiao Xue without her fox mask...
"Really? Then try to draw her appearance for me." Elder Yang said as he took out an empty scroll, a bottle of ink, and a paintbrush from his spatial ring then placed it on the stone table in the center of the pavilion.
"Ah?! I... I must draw her appearance?! But... But I cannot draw!" Ye Zhen jumped in surprise, and he immediately refused it.
But Elder Yang still waited for Ye Zhen to draw patiently.
Just when Ye Zhen held the paintbrush in hesitation with a sour face, another disciple with black uniform entered Elder Yang"s pavilion too.
"Greeting to Honorable Elder Yang. This humble disciple has something important to report." The disciple in black uniform bowed politely to Elder Yang.
Ye Zhen"s eyes brightened as he said: "Ah, it seems this fellow disciple has something really important to tell Elder Yang, then I will excuse myself for now."
"All right, you can leave now." Elder Yang waved his hand, signaling Ye Zhen to leave.
Ye Zhen swiftly took the Elder from Blood Devil Sect and ran out from Elder Yang"s pavilion, but before he could run far from it, Elder Yang shouted to remind him: "Do not forget to hand over your painting to me tomorrow! As for that man, you can get rid of him now."
Ye Zhen almost stumbled and fell when he heard Elder Yang"s words. Ye Zhen really wanted to cry, but there were no tears come out.
He was a martial art maniac and never learned how to paint before!
Elder Yang smiled while shook his head in Ye Zhen"s silliness.
Elder Yang already detected the extreme reluctance of Ye Zhen"s expression and words when he asked about that woman.
"It seems that woman must be really beautiful to even make that Ye brat fall so hard for her." Elder Yang thought.
"Speak!" Elder Yang said to the disciple in black uniform.
"Report to Honorable Elder Yang. The elder of Oracle Mountain Sect contacted us to verify if Honorable Elder Yang really sent four envoys to Misty Mountain Peak." The disciple in black uniform bowed his head politely and reported.
"Four envoys? Did you ask for their appearance or their trait clearly?" Elder Yang raised his eyebrow in suspicion and asked.
"Yes! They said all of those envoys wore black cloaks, and the three of those four envoys are young girls. Two of those young girls are very beautiful, while the last girl has your jade insignia, and she wore a fox mask to cover her face. The last girl with the fox mask was the one who introduced herself as your envoy. She also said her name is Xiao Bai." The disciple in black uniform replied almost immediately.
"Oh?! A girl with a fox mask? That Chou Nu (Ugly Girl)… How dare she use my name?! She even dares to use my Xiao Bai"s name!" Elder Yang scolded Tang Li Xue with his mouth, but he himself did not realize that his expression became much gentler now, when he recalled those pair of mesmerizing topaz blue eyes which identical to his late Xiao Bai.
Elder Yang chuckled while thinking for a while.
"Contact that elder of Oracle Mountain Sect and say that those people are really my envoys, so try to fulfill all of their requests as much as possible." Elder Yang ordered the disciple in black uniform before waved his hand signaled the disciple to leave.
The disciple in black uniform bowed once more to Elder Yang before hastily went out from the pavilion, but before that…
Elder Yang added one more order: "Tell to the elder of Oracle Mountain Sect that all of my envoys are really important to me, especially the one with a fox mask, so they must protect all of my envoys at all cost. If they dare to hurt my envoys, I will surely make them regret it!"
The disciple in black uniform shuddered slightly and immediately replied: "Understood!"
Elder Yang chuckled again and thought: "That little girl… what did she want to do at Misty Mountain Peak? Forget it... I will ask her myself if I meet with her again next time."
When he made sure he was really alone, Elder Yang decided to open his silver mask that covered his face.
His handsome and cold face was revealed once more.
If anyone from Asura Demon Sect saw his appearance now, they would immediately recognize him because this Elder Yang Zhiyun was actually the former Patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect, Mo Zhiyun!
Previously, Tang Li Xue always called him Xiao Hei before all of her memories about him were sealed by the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard.
Elder Yang closed his eyes and muttered with a mourning tone: "Xiao Bai…"
Elder Yang or maybe we rather called him with Xiao Hei now… wanted to go back to the Asura Demon Sect after his grandfather came back at first.
But he immediately remembered the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard"s words about his grandfather actually used him and his late father as whetstones for his uncle.
So, he decided to wait for a while and see the situation first…
However, his grandfather did not even punish his uncle and even instantly promote him to the next patriarch when he came back.
His grandfather did not even ask for his news or to look at his dead body!
From that, Xiao Hei finally realized that all of the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard"s words were true.
He and his late father was nothing more than chess pieces that can be sacrificed anytime in front of his grandfather"s eyes.
Xiao Hei felt very angry and resentful after that!
He wanted to take revenge!
He did not feel that close to his father, but his Xiao Bai was different!
His Xiao Bai already saved him several times, so how could he did not take revenge for her death!
That was the reason why he joined the strongest virtuous sect, the Immortal Sword Sect!
Actually, Xiao Hei"s adventure was no less exciting than Tang Li Xue at all.
After he almost got killed by his uncle, Mo Chonglin, Xiao Hei got randomly teleported by Tang Li Xue"s [Subst.i.tute Doll], and he accidentally teleported into the Asura Demon Sect"s hidden inheritance ground!
The requirement to open this Asura Demon Sect"s hidden inheritance ground was very harsh.
First, the Asura Demon Sect must be on the verge of collapse from external invasion. What did it mean?
It means the sect protection array must get destroyed, and the most sacred place of the Asura Demon Sect, the ancestral hall, must get burned to ashes!
Accidentally, the sect protection array was forcefully destroyed by the Red-Eyes Winged Lizard when they were escaping from the Asura Demon Sect.
Tang Li Xue also accidentally burned the ancestral hall to ashes when she awakened the Phoenix of Pride.
The second requirement was... of course, only Asura Demon Sect"s patriarch could enter the hidden inheritance ground and obtained the Asura Demon King inheritance.
At that time, Xiao Hei was still the rightful patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect, since Mo Chonglin still has not been crowned as the next patriarch of the Asura Demon Sect by his grandfather yet.
So, Xiao Hei managed to get Asura Demon Inheritance, [Asura Demon King Scripture] there which made his cultivation advance by leap and bounds.
He vowed to exact his revenge for Xiao Bai and slay Mo Chonglin after that!
Unfortunately, his grandfather gave the blood essence of Asura Demon to Mo Chonglin.
The blood essence of Asura Demon should be used for Xiao Hei to breakthrough from Core Formation Stage to Nascent Soul Stage later, and his grandfather already promised it to him.
But in the end, his grandfather gave it to his uncle!
By using that blood essence of Asura Demon, Mo Chonglin managed to breakthrough from Core Formation Stage to Nascent Soul Stage!
So, Xiao Hei was forced to wait for the right opportunity right now…
Although Xiao Hei"s cultivation already increased by leap and bound, but his cultivation was still only at Core Formation Stage, while his uncle was at the early Nascent Soul Stage now.
The difference between Core Formation Stage and Nascent Soul Stage was even vaster than Foundation Establishment Stage and Core Formation Stage.
If Xiao Hei at his Foundation Establishment Stage could not even defeat his uncle at Core Formation Stage, then now, his chance of winning would be even more hopeless.
That was the reason why he decided to join Immortal Sword Sect.
He wanted to use Immortal Sword Sect"s power to ruin Asura Demon Sect, and to exact his revenge on his uncle!
"Xiao Bai… I will definitely get your revenge and kill Mo Chonglin! No matter what it takes..." Xiao Hei muttered with a cold tone filled with murderous intent.
