Chapter 1034: Jin Peng: "A Long Way to Go"
Xiao put on the Yaksha Nuo mask and said, "Stay as far away as possible and don't be too exposed to the power of the abyss from them."
Ye Lan was about to nod when the sound of rapid hooves broke her thoughts.
The white crane beneath him let out a mournful cry. If the Demon-Subduing Great Sage had not been beside him, the white crane would definitely not have been able to stay in the air, but would have been frightened by the momentum and fallen from the sky.
The sound of hooves is like thunder and the galloping is like lightning.
That was lightning created by blood!
"Why, possible!"
Ye Lan looked at the scene in front of him in shock. A terrifying aura came from the direction of the abyss, and the sky was also dyed like blood and fire by this terrifying aura.
“Kill, kill, kill!”
Loud shouts of killing came from the surging blood-red cloud. Under the cover of this momentum, even if the terrible hoofbeats were heard, it was impossible to tell what the creature was.
No, maybe it's not a living thing!
"Thousand Rock Riders?!"
The Yaksha Nuo mask turned into light and shadow and disappeared, and a look of astonishment appeared on Xiao's face.
He was very familiar with this voice, but all the existences behind that name should have been sacrificed long ago!
The two people have different thoughts, but Chi Yun below will not tell you about these nonsense.
With just one charge, all the members of the cult were strangled by the red cloud, except for Dainsleb who stood still.
Even the spatial rift in the transmission network was severely washed away. If the people behind the scenes had not seen the danger and closed the entrance, this group of red cloud might have already rushed in through the entrance.
"Thousand Rock Riders?!"
Ye Lan was stunned for a moment: "Great Sage, there is such a secret force in the Qianyan Army?"
In Liyue Harbor, I’m afraid only the young master can create a mysterious team that even she, the head of intelligence, doesn’t know about?
"This is not a secret, this is a thing."
There was still a look of shock in Xiao's eyes: "No, how could they..."
boom!
The earth shook and the mountains trembled, and shouts of fighting spirit echoed in all directions.
"Subdue the demons and slay the evil!"
"Use your body as a mountain, your burning soul as a barrier, and level the four directions!"
"A thousand rocks are solid, a thousand peaks are immovable, a fortress of armor is built to quell demons and evil spirits!"
"Keep these demons in the battle formation. We can't retreat, and we absolutely cannot retreat!"
…
"Follow Lord Yasha and charge!"
"Kick these evil demons back!"
"The Emperor is here, the Emperor has returned!"
The shouting that resounded only on the spiritual level came to an abrupt end, but the amount of information contained in it was too huge for ordinary people to accept.
Emperor, and Yaksha!
Xiao's pupils trembled violently in front of Ye Lan, but his own expression was not much better at this time.
She had more or less guessed what was going on here.
There is a high probability that the ancestor of my family was also a part of this war!
As the red cloud dissipated, Xiao finally followed the direction where the red cloud came from.
At the entrance to the abyss, there is a stone tablet surrounded by delicacies and strong liquor, and decorated with flowers and plants.
"That was the reappearance of the heroic spirit just now."
Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry about what's happening here for now. With them here, no one will be able to mess around in a place like this."
The impact of the red cloud just now would have been devastating even if the number of cult members had doubled.
That was the heroic spirits of the most elite group of people five hundred years ago!
Ye Lan looked at Dainsleb who was standing there, seemingly "still in shock".
"What about him then?"
“He’s very smart.”
Xiao left this place, and the scene that just happened touched his heart.
From the intermittent words just now, it can be heard that a Yaksha suddenly came to help after the war broke out, and then counterattacked with a fearless and powerful army, killing all the way back from outside the rock layer.
Afterwards, the Emperor finally rushed back to Liyue and used the power of the Demon God to completely suppress the disaster that happened five hundred years ago.
That Yaksha...
Fate always seems so ruthless and similar, or perhaps this is the so-called force of correction.
After Inazuma, Tiehanhan did not cause any trouble and gradually became the "Inazuma Agricultural Model", Shinobu Kuki no longer had to deal with too many trivial matters and also had the job of "shrine maiden" which made her family feel at ease.
Amidst Hanhan's excitement and shouting about wanting to find a boss to hold a party, the two boarded the ship to Liyue.
Ogika State——
Xiao hurried back to Wangshu Inn. For the first time, he didn't care about the presence of other people, but went straight to Philgodette.
"Boss, you have to find someone from Liyue Harbor during this period of time."
Xiao thought for a while, then took out a token and placed it on the counter.
"If you are short of manpower, you can transfer people from the Ten Gold Association."
If Philgodette was somewhat shocked, the onlookers nearby were completely excited.
The Great Sage Who Conquers Demons is alive!
No, to be precise, I saw the Great Sage Subduing Demons up close and personal!
"I see."
Although it was the first time in the creation of the world, Philgodette did not panic. Instead, she looked at Xiao thoughtfully.
"If Great Sage has something on your mind, you might as well sit for a while to calm your mind."
"Yan Xiao has also been preparing for a cooking competition recently. If the Great Sage could give him some advice, he would surely be happy for a long time."
Filgodette smiled and said, "Yanxiao must have heard the noise by now. The almond tofu is already in the pot."
Xiao hesitated for a moment, then nodded and returned to the place where he often stayed. The passers-by who were watching him were also quite tactful and did not follow him.
Soon, the former bandit, now the chef of Wangshu Inn, came up with almond tofu, and he was very happy after receiving the comments .
High emotional intelligence: like a child.
Low emotional intelligence: like a fool.
Xiao stood up with the almond tofu in his hand, chewing it slowly while looking at the decorations around it.
Landscape stones, patterns on fences, potted plants...
The things that he had not noticed before now seemed to have transformed into invisible tentacles that bound his steps, trying to prevent him from leaving.
Xiao knew in his heart that the Seven Star Formation could not stop him, but if he really decided to go deep into the Rock Abyss to find an answer, the danger would be too great.
"Under the night sky, the blend of clear water and vegetation created a quiet Dihuazhou. There was no sight of any evil spirits, nor any screams or cries from passers-by."
At some point, Zhongli had already stood in front of Xiao, with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at Dihuazhou in front of him.
"This is all thanks to you."
Xiao finished eating the almond tofu silently, then put the plate aside, clasped his fists and saluted towards Zhongli's back, but still said nothing.
"Alas, before I came here, I actually already knew your choice."
Zhongli said solemnly, "This journey may be risky, but you insist on going."
Xiao looked rather lonely: "I have guarded this place for more than a hundred years and never left without permission. I only ask the Emperor for permission to help the Nameless Yaksha."
"No, actually you have gone AWOL, and more than once."
Zhongli turned around and looked at Xiao, who had a stunned look on his face. He stretched out his right hand and placed it on the other's shoulder.
"You've been to several dinner parties, and you haven't even asked for my permission."
Xiao, on the contrary, was overwhelmed by Zhongli, and his original mental preparation of fighting to the end and even disobeying orders was shattered.
"This, Emperor, I..."
"That's fine. From a common sense perspective, these words are just to help you relax."
Zhongli smiled: "This matter is an obsession for you, and also a lingering demon in your heart."
"If you want to go, go ahead."
“Never forget that you are never alone.”
"Once upon a time, you had comrades and family."
"Now, you also have comrades, friends, and people who pray for you day and night."
"It's not that you don't have family, although there is a mentally ill person among your family, and the one who is curled up in Guiliyuan is completely brainless."
"You are such a young man, you have a long way to go."
"As long as you don't forget, there are still people who remember you in this day and age. I hope you return safely."
Zhongli gently pressed Xiao's shoulder.
"Do what you think is right, Jinpeng."
