Chapter 19: Ying Sheng's Depression (Part 2)
Thinking of his own loss, Ying Sheng's heart dripped with blood.
In addition to General Bao, his Martial Ancestor realm subordinates who died because of Wang Xiong already totalled nine people.
Nine people!
He'd suffered such disastrous losses.
Yet now, Zhou Tianyin was asking him and he really found it difficult to speak.
"It's all Wang Xiong's fault. We went to save him and Regional Princess Qinghuan in good faith, yet didn't anticipate that he would entrap us!" A wounded general filled with resentment replied.
The general naturally wouldn't say that they sink into their predicament, because they wanted to kill Wang Xiong, so he could only say that it was because of saving Wang Xiong.
However, the general didn't understand at all that Zhou Tianyin and the others previously already saw Wang Xiong and Ying Sheng's group
Ying Sheng wanted to block him, but it was already too late. Since this was the case, then it was not necessary to stop him.
That general rapidly described everything, with the only difference being killing Wang Xiong became rescuing Wang Xiong.
During the description of events.
One could hear a pin drop on Placid Cloud Mountain.
Zhou Chi, however, sucked in a mouthful of cold air.
"That's impossible. That blockhead Wang Xiong……, how could he!" Zhou Chi was filled with disbelief.
Fourth Prince opened his eyes even wider as he could feel the threat that Wang Xiong posed.
"So what you're saying is that Wang Xiong has been playing the fool all along? He has always been pretending? He's another Wang Hong?" Fourth Prince scowled in fury.
If other people said these things, Fourth Prince might not have believed it. However, the general before was actually Ying Sheng's trusted aide. How could he lie?
However, the ability that Wang Xiong displayed was also too fierce.
He previously saw the scene inside Wind Valley, and it was as if an Asura from hell dismembered all those bodies. He originally even thought that it was done by Ying Sheng. However, previously, Ying Sheng's eleven people clearly did not have the opportunity to make mincemeat out of those corpses.
Only a single Wang Xiong?
It really was him?
Fourth Prince looked towards Wang Zhongquan with eyes opened wide.
Actually, Wang Zhongquan's eyes flashed repeatedly. Wang Zhongquan knew Wang Xiong's aptitude. His potential had been sealed, and was now unsealed, so he was not amazed. He was much more delighted, incomparably delighted.
The more awesome Wang Xiong was, the more happy Wang Zhongquan was.
Zhou Tianyin remained silent.
Zhou Tianyin wasn't stupid. On the contrary, she was extremely intelligent and could distinguish which of General Qing's words were truths, and which were not. Listening to the general's description, Zhou Tianyin was even more curious about Wang Xiong.
Was it possible that Wang Xiong was truly disguising himself as a weakling before?
But why?
His cultivation was also only at the first stage of the Spiritual Sea realm!
Everyone's gazes looked at Wang Zhongquan simultaneously.
Yet Wang Zhongquan's expression remained indifferent. Naturally, he wouldn't say anything to everyone.
Zhou Tianyin saw Wang Zhongquan unwilling to explain and once more looked towards the image from the heaven's eye.
"Recently, I've used up godly light in order to send voice messages to you. Originally I can watch all of you for the period of time it takes to burn an incense. Right now, I can only maintain the eye for a half of the usual time. Ying Sheng, you should take care!" Zhou Tianyin's voice faded.
The heaven's eye was going to close soon. Zhou Tianyin still needed to digest the strange news about Wang Xiong.
"Wait wait!" Ying Sheng suddenly opened his mouth.
"Hm!" Zhou Tianyin looked at Ying Sheng, puzzled.
"Tell me which way to go. I'll pluck the Godly Tomb flower on your behalf!" Ying Sheng spoke in a deep voice.
"Didn't I already give you guys the map of Godly Tomb Mountain's paths? It'll be fine if you go on your own!" Zhou Tianyin shook her head.
"No, the route that you gave us can only allow us to arrive stealthily at the top of Godly Tomb Mountain, but there's no way for us to avoid the guards at the mountaintop. I know that you have the ability to obtain the route to go up the mountain, so you must also have the route to the Godly Tomb Sect's palace. Give it to me, and I'll help you pluck the Godly Tomb flower!" Ying Sheng spoke impatiently.
"I don't have it!" Zhou Tianyin shook her head.
"Previously, we fought at Wind Valley for one day and one night. Hei Ban also did not come personally. Moreover, his heaven's eye also came and left quickly. This showed that their may be internal strife within the Godly Tomb Sect. This is a good opportunity for us. Tianyin, believe in me. This time, I'll help you pluck the Godly Tomb flower!" Ying Sheng spoke eagerly.
Zhou Tianyin naturally could guess that the Godly Tomb Sect was experiencing internal strife. Just a moment ago, her heaven's eyes even sent an image in the vicinity of the Godly Tomb flower. Hei Ban was in the middle of dealing with a group of tigers.
It's just that Zhou Tianyin didn't show it to everyone, that's all.
This indeed was a good opportunity, a lucky opportunity, but Ying Sheng may not necessarily be able to obtain the flower.
"Oh right, I forgot to tell you that I've also brought my father's saint ranked device, Gravity Domain. As long as I use Gravity Domain, even Hei Ban will have no way of breaking through. After I obtain the Godly Tomb flower, I can take advantage of their disorder to leave the mountain. Even if I'm unable to leave the mountain, Hei Ban also won't be able to enter the Gravity Domain. We can wait until you guys come as reinforcements. At least, the Godly Tomb flower won't be at risk of getting taken away! And won't be destroyed by Hei Ban!" Ying Sheng persuaded eagerly.
At the base of Placid Cloud Mountain, Fourth Prince nodded his head. "The human emperor formerly bestowed the Gravity Domain to me, and I've indeed given it to my son to take with him!"
Zhou Tianyin was a bit taciturn.
"This time, all of you guys know that I'm plucking the Godly Tomb flower. What are you guys still worried about. If I were to keep it for myself, I'll also have no way of explaining it to the human emperor, isn't that right?" Ying Sheng reasoned once more.
Indeed, Ying Sheng previously could've secretly taken the Godly Tomb flower away, then deny it afterwards.
But now, everyone knew about it, so how could he flatly deny it. Even if Ying Sheng brought it out, Zhou Tianyin could look to the human emperor to demand it for her.
"Alright. I believe you!" Zhou Tianyin nodded her head.
Ying Sheng exhaled a long breath.
Wang Xiong's abrupt rise made Ying Sheng very jittery. Right now, he could only spare no effort in boosting his image in Zhou Tianyin's heart, so he must build achievements and avoid Regional Princess Qinghuan's father's raising difficult questions.
"Elder Quan of the Godly Tomb Sect is someone on my Zhou family's side. He lives at the place marked by a red circle on the map I gave you! You should go find him, then say that I asked him to assist you!" Zhou Tianyin lowered her voice.
"What? Elder Quan is someone on our Zhou family's side?" Zhou Chi asked in astonishment.
Fourth Prince and Wang Zhongquan also revealed a stunned expression. It was clear that the two of them also didn't expect that the Zhou family had already prepared in this path long ago. Someone from the Zhou family unexpectedly already infiltrated the depths of the Godly Tomb Sect. No wonder she knew the Godly Tomb Sect's terrain so well.
"Good!" Ying Sheng nodded his head.
"Make your move tomorrow at noon. At that time, I want to see you take the Godly Tomb flower!" Zhou Tianyin emphasized it.
"Don't worry, Tianyin!" Ying Sheng displayed a resolute expression.
"Also, you and I are not that familiar with one another. Please call me by my whole name, Zhou Tianyin!" Zhou Tianyin's voice finally dropped.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the heaven's eye closed.
Time was up.
Ying Sheng also sensed that aura disappearing and recalled Zhou Tianyin's final words. Ying Sheng was slightly angry, but very quickly, the corners of his mouth exposed a trace of a sneer. "Sooner or later, there'll be a day when you will be my woman! Humph!"
