Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 566: Frog Under the Well
Inside the dark haunted house, Tang Xiu still maintained his posture with one of his legs tilted, and the cigarette clamping between his fingers sent a circle of smoke curving upwards. Meanwhile, Light, who was wearing white clothes, was playing with his crescent moon sword and did not even look at Dongbei Hu at a glance.
In the darkest corner, Dark was as if he had completely merged with the darkness. His presence was so restrained that even Dongbei Hu, who had a high level of cultivation, was unaware of his presence. Of course, this was also thanks to the blockage of the black cloth in front of him as well.
"Are you Tang Xiu?" Dongbei Hu was quite worried inside after seeing over twenty corpses inside; two of them were even headless. He had a high and outstanding status and was therefore unwilling to accumulate more murders beforehand. It could be said that he had never personally killed anyone for more than ten years.
Being quiet…
Tang Xiu raised his index finger to his mouth and produced a reddening sound. His eyes then turned from Dongbei Hu to Yao Chengqing who had come behind him along with dozens of Yao Family experts.
Dongbei Hu furrowed his brows. But, after living for more than a century, he had cultivated incredible wisdom and patience. Therefore, she was silent and stood still with a calm expression, anticipating what tricks Tang Xiu would play.
After Yao Chengqing entered the haunted house, he smelled a thick smell of blood. His skin changed and he quickly ran to the front of Dongbei Hu. His eyes swept over the corpses around before finally landing on Yao Xinhua, who was like soft mud and limping falling on the floor; no one knew if he was still alive or dead.
"SON!"
Yao Chengqing roared and dashed towards Yao Xinhua. He crouched down and carefully helped her sit on the floor and leaned against her chest.
At this moment, Yao Xinhua's breathing was weak and her face was as pale as paper. His handsome face was drenched in sweat and was also stained with bloodstains that were about to dry up. His gaze blurred. After cleaning seeing that the one who was hugging him was his father, Yao Xinhua squeezed out a bitter smile and in a hoarse voice said, "Dad, I'm sorry. Please do one thing for me. I beg you . ”
Tears gushed out from Yao Chengqing's eyes as he repeatedly nodded and said, "Tell me your wishes, son. I promise you to do that no matter what. ”
With words coming out of his throat, Yao Xinhua pleaded, “Please kill me, Father. To die with your hands would be much better than to die with his hands. I'm afraid .. I-I'm afraid I'll die with eternal regret. ”
Yao Chengqing shuddered deep inside, and the pain hit him like a tidal wave. Yao Xinhua's hand stiffened at his son and he shook his head repeatedly, saying, “You won't die, son. Don't worry, no one can kill you as long as I'm here. ”
After saying that, he prepared to get up and walk towards Tang Xiu.
However, strength suddenly exploded from Yao Xinhua. It was all strength he could muster after resting for a while. He grabbed Yao Chengqing's leg and hurriedly called out, "Dad, hurry away! You ... You can never be his opponent! "
Looking at the scene before him, Tang Xiu clapped his hands and laughed, “What a touching sight of the deep affection between father and son! In any case, do not rush back now that you are already here. Of course, you won't be able to return at all. Coincidentally I want to do some good deeds, so I can send you both — father and son — on the way to the underworld. Is not being able to keep each other on a trip there great? "
Yao Chengqing crouched back to hug Yao Xinhua and angrily glared at Tang Xiu and shouted loudly, "I heard there is an incredible strange person among the gentle Tangs, Tangs, but I didn't expect you to be any scarier than I imagined .. But, even if you're so strong, then what? You can kill all these ordinary people, but can you also defeat Master Tiger? You idiot brat, today is the right time for you to die! ”
“Seeing the confident expression on your face suddenly recalled a few words: extreme prosperity foretells the beginning of a setback. "Tang Xiu grinned as he flicked the cigarette ash and smilingly said," The Yao Family has been powerful for decades, and consequently infected the juniors of your family with arrogant dispositions and intimidation. Unfortunately, you have too narrow a vision and outlook as one of the top big families in China. Since you are also a respected figure among the Yaos, then today I will use your blood as a sacrifice to hold a memorial ceremony for everyone passing by from my Tang Family. ”
The crescent moon blade in Light's hand instantly flew over to Yao Chengqing in an extremely twisted trajectory. At this moment, Dongbei Hu was humming coldly and flicking his finger. A flame shot out from his fingertip and clashed with the crescent blade.
Bang …
Light's body trembled and a thick killing intent appeared on his face, while Dongbei Hu's expression changed greatly. He was forced to retreat half a step and exert his strength to the tip of his toe to stabilize his stance. Despite this, he felt his wrist slightly numb and in pain.
"Wait!" Tang Xiu raised his hand to prevent the Light from continuing to attack. He smiled faintly and looked at Dongbei Hu, saying, “I guess you are Dongbei Hu — the legendary Amur Tiger from the Northeast region, huh? You are very old yet you are still playing outside instead of enjoying the later years in my hometown in the Northeast! To think that you want a disaster court. Even if you don't care about yourself, don't you at least care about your own descendants? ”
Dongbei Hu's eyes were full of vigilance, and a storm surge suddenly surged in his heart. From the clash earlier, he could feel something that made his heart goosebump. The young man in white clothes in front of him looked like he was still in his late 20s, yet his cultivation was so strong that even he felt a weak pressure.
However, for the tough young man to stand respectfully beside Tang Xiu greatly increased his vigilance towards Tang Xiu. He could feel an extremely sinister aura coming from Tang Xiu; like a crouching python that seemed to be ready to attack and tear at him at any moment. He wanted to see through Tang Xiu's strength, yet when he tried to investigate Tang Xiu, it was as if he was looking at the moon that was blooming on the surface of the water like a hazy image.
"You look so confident, young man!"
Nevertheless, the Amur Tiger had its own dignity and he was a little angry when he saw Tang Xiu looking down on him.
"What exactly do you want to know?" Dongbei Hu asked, raising his eyebrows.
“That's the reason why you came to Beijing. "Tang Xiu smiled. "Dealing with my Tang Family shouldn't be just because of that lifesaving aid, right?"
Dongbei Hu was startled and immediately sized up Tang Xiu. In fact, the purpose of her visit to Beijing was not purely because she wanted to return the favor as Tang Xiu had said. He also wanted to obtain a lot of cultivation resources through the Yao Family. As a cultivator, the higher his cultivation was, the greater the cultivation resources he needed to consume.
It was just that he had yet to mention his purpose to Family Head Yao, and still remembered this idea. He could not think of how Tang Xiu could guess it correctly.
"You are right . I do need something, and the Yao Family should help me. ”
“Truely, killing two birds with one stone is indeed a good idea. "Tang Xiu nodded. "It's a pity that you would lift a rock just to smash it yourself. Not only will you benefit, you will end up losing the bait along with the fish and losing everything. Alright, I'll give you a chance; a chance for you to live. ”
Dongbei Hu could not help but laugh. Although Tang Xiu and Light did give him pressure, he was not sure that these two young people before him would be able to match him and he would not be able to stand up to fight them and escape. Although he spent his time in obscurity and barely dealt with anyone else in recent years, he has, he used to be an old man who had gone through the rain and strong winds and was not afraid of facing a fight.
"That's very interesting . Then tell me, what chance are you going to give me? ”
“I give you 24 hours to kill all members of the Yao Family direct connection. The number of corpses I want to see is no less than 100, ” Tang Xiu replied.
The smile on Dongbei Hu's face gradually faded away, as a grin appeared to replace him. He then sneered, “Young man, do you really think you can kill me by relying on your trivial skills?”
"It seems to me that you don't want me to give you a chance, so?" Ask Tang Xiu.
"There is no need for that," sneered Dongbei Hu.
“Ah, what a pity. Your vision is very limited. You are like a frog at the bottom of a well, arrogant and arrogant. "Tang Xiu shook his head and sighed. "No matter if you've lived in China for nearly two centuries, it's time for you to experience hardship, it seems. Light, I need the Golden Core within his body to refine medicine. ”
"Understand!"
Light respectfully replied and his figure instantly appeared in front of Dongbei Hu. As the crescent moon sword danced in the air, it immediately created an overlapping sword image that enveloped Dongbei Hu. At the same time, a cluster of flames emerged from thin air, and a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed. The lightning fire array formed almost in a short period of time and punched out toward Dongbei Hu to suppress it.
"What?"
Dongbei Hu had never seen such a method, creating fear and horror in his heart. He realized that he might have experienced an unprecedented crisis today. Tang Xiu simply said that he needed his Gold Core, thus making him realize that Tang Xiu could see through his cultivation. What surprised him the most was that Tang Xiu even said that he would use his Gold Core to refine medicine.
"REST…"
Dongbei Hu sent a steel fist out. Appearing alongside the barrage of images flashing from his punch was a huge eruption from the True Essence that heavily bombarded the crescent blade. At the same time, a small sword made of peach wood emerged from his hand out of thin air and forced a drop of his blood out as it quickly fused into it. The flame from the sword was as if it was capable of tearing apart the space barrier and hitting the top of the flame array core.
Tang Xiu frowned and nonchalantly said, "I don't want this haunted house to be destroyed. ”
Whooshing sound…
Dark black-clothed flashed and instantly appeared, surrounding Dongbei Hu. The black clothes he wore made him fuse in the darkness, and the sword flew in his hand like an intelligent wandering spirit fish as he gracefully swept across Dongbei Hu's neck. Despite Dongbei Hu's extremely quick efforts to avoid it, there was still a bloody wound left on his right neck.
How could there be anyone else here?
A huge shock struck Dongbei Hu's soul. His attack that made the earth unable to destroy the lightning fire array, whereas that legendary flying sword had even nearly decapitated his head.
