Chapter 52 Return the favor
Chapter 52 Return the favor
There was silence in the courtyard.
Yun Ying shattered the Five Elements Ring with her move, showing her superb strength and unparalleled swordsmanship, and Shi Hao killed many kings, and even the people of the Bulao Mountain could not escape the disaster. They were all so powerful.
These are two invincible kings, possessing invincible power. Perhaps only if the Venerable appears can he defeat them, everyone thought.
Now, no one dares to cause trouble for Shi Hao anymore.
After calming down, all the acquaintances naturally sat down to chat and drink. However, Shi Hao was a little surprised that Yun Ying and Yun Xi joined in.
"I said you owe me a favor," Yun Ying said, meeting Shi Hao's inquiring gaze.
Shi Hao was stunned, thinking of the bronze book fragment, and immediately curled his lips, "So you came to me to repay a favor, I thought it was something else."
"Brother Shi, what do you think it is? Tell me about it."
Next to them, the Nine-headed Lion and other ancient species all started to make a noise. They guessed what Shi Hao was thinking.
"Someone has become a king, but he is still thinking about whose girl," Huo Linger also said. She felt that this kid Shi Hao must have set his eyes on Yun Ying.
Shi Hao immediately retorted, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not that kind of person."
Everyone tutted. They didn't understand Shi Hao yet. Even though he seemed to be a decent man most of the time, that was just an appearance.
"Tell me, why?" Shi Hao asked.
"Just return the peacock to me. We are looking for that peacock for something very important, and it concerns the life and death of our tribe," Yun Xi said.
"Life or death?"
Hearing this, everyone became concerned. It must be no small matter if Yun Xi could actually say these words.
"So exaggerated? Also, the peacock you mentioned, could it be the egg in Baiduan Mountain back then, Er Tuzi?" Shi Hao asked, stunned for a moment.
When Yun Xi heard the words "Baiduan Mountain", some bad memories came to her mind, but she still suppressed her shyness and nodded, "Yes, it's that egg. There should be a peacock inside."
"Peacock? Er Tuzi is now a featherless bird. But what happened? Is it really that serious?"
Shi Hao was cautious and asked. He wanted to know why Yun Xi said that. His intuition told him that it might be related to the impending catastrophe.
"Fairy Yun Xi, can you tell us what's going on?" The Nine-Headed Lion and the others were also very curious.
Yun Xi glanced at Yun Ying, and Yun Ying nodded to her.
"Okay, I'll tell you what happened, but you must not spread it outside because the truth is too horrible," Yun Xi took a deep breath and decided to tell the story.
A soundproofing array appeared, preventing their conversation from being leaked.
Half an hour later, everyone present had a solemn look on their faces, because what Yun Xi said was too shocking and simply terrifying.
"However, since the catastrophe will only affect beings below the Venerable level, we will not be in danger. The problem is those forces with Venerables."
Although the nine-headed lion lamented the horror of the catastrophe, it was not that nervous. As long as it did not affect creatures below the Venerable realm, their nine-headed lion clan would be safe, because there was no Venerable in their clan.
"There is no venerable in our tribe either," the three-eyed brothers and Sable also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where will we go after stepping onto the magic circle?" Shi Hao asked. This time it was Yun Ying who spoke up, "I believe you have heard some news from people outside the domain. The Eight Realms are called cages, representing the lower realms. If there is a lower realm, there must be an upper realm."
"Upper realm," Shi Hao's heart moved. He had long known from the witch that the Eight Realms were called cages, but the other party did not tell him that this place was called the Lower Realm, and that there was an Upper Realm.
"As long as you hand over the peacock to us, we can allow you and your people to escape," Yun Xi said again.
Shi Hao thought for a moment, "I can't control Er Tuzi unless he wants to. However, since it's a favor, I will definitely repay it. Let me give you a chance. You can talk to Er Tuzi yourself. Whether you can convince him or not depends on your ability."
He has decided to go back and tell God Liu about this matter and see what God Liu thinks.
"Okay, where is it now?" Yun Xi had no objection.
Shi Hao smiled and said, "Er Tuzi is at my house now. If you want to see him, you have to come to my house."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present showed strange expressions. This sentence sounded like kidnapping, and it was naked kidnapping.
Yun Xi naturally felt the same way the first time, and her eyes widened immediately, "You...are you trying to trick us into going back to guard the village for you?"
"Oh, I see," the others cried out in surprise and looked at Shi Hao with ambiguous eyes, as if to say, that was a really cool trick you played.
But they clearly remembered that when they were in Baiduan Mountain, Shi Hao was shouting all the time that he wanted to capture Yun Xi and Yun Ying and bring them back to him to guard the village.
Unexpectedly, several years have passed and Shi Hao is still thinking about it. He is really persistent.
"No, no, don't get me wrong, I don't think so. I've already told you, Er Tuzi is in the village. If you want to see it, you have to go to my house," Shi Hao waved his hands quickly.
"It's really hard to change someone's nature," Huo Linger said meaningfully. She felt that Shi Hao must have some intentions towards Yun Ying, and even Yun Xi.
Shi Hao was also speechless. He didn't say anything, so how could there be such a big misunderstanding? "Anyway, I've made myself clear. Believe it or not is up to you."
Seeing Shi Hao like this, Yun Xi slowly stopped doubting him. Anyway, with Yun Ying there, she was not afraid of what he might do.
"Then when are we leaving? Time is tight, so it's best to prepare as early as possible," Yun Xi asked.
"Don't worry, the catastrophe won't come so soon. There's still some time," Shi Hao was very calm, because God Willow had told him that the catastrophe would come within a year at the latest.
In this case, there will be at least a month or two of calm period.
"How do you know?" Yun Xi asked suspiciously.
Shi Hao smiled and said, "The secret cannot be revealed. Anyway, let's wait until this party is over before we talk about it."
Hearing this, Yun Xi rolled her eyes at him and even gasped when he said he was fat.
"Then call us when you are ready to go. We'll go exchange some materials," Yun Xi said, and pulled Yun Ying away, walking as fast as they could, as if they were avoiding the plague god.
"Tsk, why are you running so fast," Shi Hao smacked his lips. He could see that Yun Xi was avoiding him, and even pulled Yun Ying away.
Suddenly, Shi Hao remembered something and shouted at the backs of the two people, "Hey, you haven't answered my question from last time in the Virtual God Realm?"
Everyone in the yard heard the shout and looked over immediately, not knowing what was going on.
