Ming Shu had been guarding against him so when Zhao Desheng took the thing out, she quickly blocked it .
The thing knocked into her wrist . Ming Shu felt a shudder run through her body . She looked curiously at the thing that had dropped to the floor .
It was a piece of ancient jade . It was carved with the same symbol on the coffin . This was an object from Xi Chu .
Zhao Desheng looked at Ming Shu, who was staring at the ancient jade . She was perfectly fine . His expression turned ugly . How can it be…
Even if it was not supposed to be directed against her, she shouldn’t be safe and sound now .
Kacha!
“Ahhhhh—!”
Zhao Desheng’s wrist was broken by Ling Yan . There was a murderous aura in his eyes . He raised his leg and kicked Zhao Desheng .
Zhao Desheng fell to the ground . He grimaced in pain and took out symbol papers from his clothes . He released them and a gold light appeared, forming a shield in front of him .
Zhao Desheng got up from the ground . He held onto his injured wrist and stepped back .
However, at this moment, a tall figure passed through the golden shield and struck toward him lightning fast .
How could it be…
“You underestimated my power . ” Ling Yan moved toward him step by step . His tone was so cold it seemed as though it came from Hell . “You think that those things are used to seal my power?”
“Are they not?” Zhao Desheng instinctively stepped back .
He had been researching for so many years . Weren’t those things used to seal him?
Ling Yan didn’t reply to him . He gave a cruel smile and grabbed Zhao Desheng’s neck again . “Where is Gu Yi?”
Zhao Desheng’s face turned red from the lack of air . “Why are you looking for him?”
“You gave him my power . I have to take it back . ”
“Your power?” Zhao Desheng was confused . “What about your… power . ”
Gu Yi was awakened by him . At the start, Su Tong was supposed to be a tribute to Gu Yi, but things happened . Luckily, he didn’t fail . Gu Yi still appeared .
However, Zhao Desheng was not satisfied with Gu Yi . He was very hard to manage . This time when they came to Anfeng County, he felt that Gu Yi had other intentions even though he was listening to him .
Gu Yi was dangerous . However, the two 2000-year-old spirits in front of him were even more dangerous .
“I… I don’t know…” Zhao Desheng had difficulty talking . “When we came up the mountain, he… disappeared . ”
Ling Yan didn’t care if Zhao Desheng was speaking the truth or not . “He will come . ”
With such an attractive power, how could Gu Yi not come?
Ling Yan threw Zhao Desheng into the golden shield, which had not disappeared . He landed right in the middle of the Taoist master team .
“An Ge!”
Xie Hui’s anxious scream stunned Ling Yan . He dashed out of the golden shield . The shield broke into sparks and disappeared into the air .
“What are you shouting at?” Ming Shu’s lazy voice sounded . “Who are you trying to scare?”
Xie Hui: “…”
Ling Yan saw Ming Shu standing there all safe and sound and strode over . “What happened . ”
Ming Shu opened her hand . The ancient jade was broken in two .
“I just pinched it and it broke . ” Ming Shu was puzzled . “So brittle . ”
Xie Hui had a lingering fear . Just now, the light that the ancient jade emitted almost seemed to suck her away . However, when Ling Yan appeared, the light disappeared and she stood there safe and sound, as though nothing had happened .
“Can it still be used?” Ming Shu asked .
If she didn’t break the ancient jade just now, she might have gotten into trouble .
“It’s okay,” Ling Yan consoled her .
However . Ming Shu and Ling Yan knew that something big was going to happen .
When the ancient jade wasn’t broken, his body already had such a reaction . Now that the jade was broken, no one knew what would happen .
Ming Shu held Ling Yan’s hand tightly and smiled at him .
Ling Yan had a warm feeling in his heart .
Nevermind, I will go back to the 19th level and stay there for some time .
Zhao Desheng was caught . He still didn’t know why he failed . He had calculated every step precisely and that was why he dared to come today . How did he land in such a situation?
“Wait, I have something to ask him . ”
Zhao Desheng didn’t want to leave . He stared straight at Ling Yan .
“If the ancient jade is not used to seal your power, what is it used for?”
Ling Yan said coldly, “To keep me conscious . ”
It was meant to make sure that those things would not be able to control him . However, he never mentioned before that when those things didn’t control him, his powers would decrease . They used the same body . The strength of the body would never change . It only depended on who was in charge of it .
Something flashed past Zhao Desheng’s mind . After a long time, he laughed . “No wonder, no wonder…”
Zhao Desheng didn’t want to give up . However, there was a mistake in his plan . He couldn’t blame anyone .
He shouldn’t have been so impatient .
It was all because of Gu Yi…
He kept urging him .
If he had more time, he would discover all this .
Gu Yi…
Zhao Desheng understood everything now . Gu Yi was using him . He thought that he could make use of Gu Yi but in the end, he got used by him .
Such irony .
When he first heard of Xi Chu, he was still very young . As he grew up, he started to forget about the story of Xi Chu . However, one day, he suddenly saw Xi Chu again .
At that time, he was not satisfied with the mundane cultivation of a Taoist master . He wanted to look for something more exciting .
Xi Chu was like a sun that lit up a path in front of him .
The priest that was buried alive . The Xi Chu where demons raged .
After that, he started finding evidence that Xi Chu existed and it made him confirm his hypothesis . It was not a legend made up by people .
But, the information that he had was too lacking . He couldn’t get any more information . Hence, he started looking for other ways .
Some of these methods used were forbidden in the Taoist master world . That time, he wanted to drag a 2000-year-old ghost from Hell but failed .
The people from the Taoist master world thought that he was practicing some sorcery . Actually, it was sorcery . He thought that he must be crazy to snatch a ghost from Hell .
He ran away . He heard that something big happened in Hell that time and he was pleased . He could even wreak havoc in Hell .
He wanted more power .
Zhao Desheng was unwilling to accept defeat . He muttered dejectedly, “Just a little bit… just a little bit . ”
The Taoist masters had their own rules . Hence, Zhao Desheng was taken away by them .
“An Ge…” Zhao Desheng suddenly turned his head . A sinister smile formed in his eyes . “He will come and find you . Hahahaha . ”
Ling Yan’s Yin Qi started to get uncontrollable . The Taoist masters were frightened . They didn’t know how Zhao Desheng’s words provoked him and immediately dragged Zhao Desheng out .
“He is coming to find you… he is coming to find you… hahahahahahaha…”
Zhao Desheng’s carried came from outside the stone temple . It was shrill and piercing to the ear .
