Devil Sovereign: Consort Can’t Escape - C178
The monk looked kind and easy to talk to, but the black buddhist beads glowed with a faint blood-red light. Clearly, he had also seen the blood earlier.
“What, you want to fight!” The voice of the fierce looking man with the axe was equally loud. As he touched the handle of the axe, a faint excitement could be seen in his eyes, as if he was looking forward to fighting with someone else.
Zhong Zikun and Qing Yuan did not want to waste their family’s strength at this moment, so they cast their gazes to the sky. Seeing that the other party did not answer them, they could only grit their teeth and cast their gazes at the last girl in the room. This should be easy to deal with.
Mu Xiaoling didn’t even bother to pay attention to them.
This hall looked very strange, but it was completely empty. Six thick white jade pillars were arranged in two rows, and on them were carvings of birds and beasts. It was an ancient legend.
She could even find ancient fox, Heaven Swallowing Python, Crimson Gold Rat, and Taotie on top of it. On the roof, there was a painting of a huge dragon flying around a pearl.
Beads?
Mu Xiaoling was carefully examining the bead when Zhong Zikun’s voice suddenly came from behind.
“You, it’s you. If you surrender now, I can leave you an intact corpse.”
Immediately afterwards, the sound of wind breaking came crashing over.
Mu Xiaoling frowned slightly as he pondered the situation. He didn’t even turn his head back as he shot out a Cloud Piercing Palm, sending the ambushed disciples flying. His swift and efficient actions had completely stunned those people.
Catching up to this person wasn’t easy to deal with either.
When Zhong Zikun and Qing Yuan saw that Xuan Wuji was still not doing anything, they had no choice but to give up and endure.
Mu Xiaoling raised her head to look at the orb. She felt that there was something moving inside the orb. There were even bits and pieces of shimmering stars within the orb. It was truly a beautiful sight to behold.
She took out an ordinary dagger and shot out with a raise of her hand. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through the pearl, and with a ‘hualala’ sound, the liquid from the pillar fell onto the ground. It seemed very ordinary, but when one of it landed on the leg of a member of the Zhong family, it actually broke it!
Each drop of water weighed a thousand pounds!
“What are you doing!” Zhong Zikun’s heart ached. He hadn’t even seen anything before he broke a person’s life.
“I clearly saw that he was greedy when he saw Lady Mu’s actions, so he moved over to take advantage of her. That’s why he suffered such a sin.”
The fat monk put his palms together and said a Buddhist prayer, “I have seen it too, it is the Zhong family’s benefactor who was greedy. It is not that he does not want to report it, it is not yet time yet.”
The burly man with the fierce axe on his back laughed disdainfully, “Fake monk, what nonsense are you trying to say? You are only trying to trick these outsiders.”
“May I know your names?”
The big fellow with the fierce face and axe on his back introduced, “My name is Cheng Ba, he is called Laifu.”
Zhong Zikun was startled and angrily said, “It’s the two of you!”
The two of them were famous in Ling Kingdom. One of them liked to fight with others, and if he lost, he would have to be knelt down and call for his father. The other one was a deceiver, a deceiver, and the entire imperial palace wouldn’t let him off.
The two of them really can’t afford to offend them.
Qing Yuan said, “But you’ve been at the Martial Spirit level since a long time ago, and your age isn’t right either. How could you enter the secret realm?”
Monk Laifu smiled and said, “The two of us naturally have our methods to deceive the heavens. You’re still young, so you don’t understand.”
Zhong Zikun and Qing Yuan were so angered by their father’s tone of voice that they almost wanted to rush over and fight for their lives. However, when they saw the excited Master Cheng, they all became obedient.
“It’s begun.” Mu Xiaoling had been staring at the place where the liquid had fallen to the ground. At that moment, there was a change in that place.
A huge stone table rose up from the inside. There were palm-sized boxes on top of the stone table. If one were to carefully count them, they would discover that the number of boxes was exactly the same as their number of people.
At this time, another stone tablet appeared beside the stone platform. On it was written — “Each person takes a brocade box and is allocated to enter the first stage according to their numbers. The person who passes this stage will become the person who passes.”
Immediately, six pitch-black square entrances appeared at the front of the hall. They were about the height of a person.
Everyone looked at each other. No one dared to step forward.
Monk Laifu said with a smile, “Since all of you are so generous, why don’t we let this poor monk and Cheng Ba go first?”
With that, Cheng Ba took out one of the brocade boxes. However, when he wanted to take another, he was immediately bounced back. No matter what, he could not get close to the stone table.
Laifu walked over and took out a brocade box. This time, it didn’t bounce back. He and Cheng Ba opened the brocade box with the word “3” on it.
“Everyone, we’ll meet again in the future.” Laifu said with a smile before walking into the third entrance with Cheng Bayi.
Someone ate the meat first, then it became a lot easier. Qiong Xuan, Zhong Zikun, Zhong Bao, and Qing Yuan each took down a brocade box and opened it. Qiong Xuan was six, Zhong Zikun, and Qing Yuan were two, and Zhong Bao was three.
The three of them were in no hurry to enter. They waited at the side until all the clan members had obtained the brocade boxes before assigning the teams to enter. Only then did they enter the entrance.
Before leaving, he took a look at Mu Xiaoling and the box on the stone table.
Mu Xiaoling shook his head to indicate that he was alright before leaving.
Since the beginning, she had thought of going over to get the brocade box. After all, the first one to enter would have a certain amount of priority. Even though it was dangerous, there was enough benefits. It definitely wouldn’t be a bad thing until she found this brocade box.
This brocade box can move.
The first person who wanted to take the box was a member of the Zhong Family. However, the moment that person extended his hand, the box immediately changed its position. Despite its incredible speed, she could still feel the movement of the air current.
Behind him, another member of the Vault family tried to take the box, but the box did the same thing and changed its position.
Mu Xiaoling stared at the box as it constantly shifted positions. She suppressed the anxiousness in her heart and carefully observed until there was only one box left.
At this moment, the embroidered box seemed to realize that it could not hide.
With every step Mu Xiaoling took, it retreated until it reached the edge of the stone platform.
The embroidered box was unable to leave the stone platform.
Mu Xiaoling silently added something in her heart before walking over and squatting down. “If you come out by yourself, I won’t hurt you. How about it?”
The box weighed the pros and cons for a moment and finally gave in. It automatically opened the lid and inside was a jade plate with numbers engraved on it. On the jade plate was a small, orange-yellow chicken.
The little chick hopped out of the box and chirped at Mu Xiaoling.
It was really too cute!
