Chapter 90 Lao Deng, Wait
Chapter 90 Lao Deng, Wait
The weather is getting colder, and the northern part of the Sun-Moon Empire has been covered with snow. The Demon Forest there is also covered with snow.
In the dark woods, there are trees that have lost all their leaves. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the criss-crossing branches, forming faint light and shadows.
And deep in the evil forest, inside a towering tree, the sunlight shines through the bushes outside the trunk into the tree hole, hitting the face of the sleeping handsome man inside.
As the sun shone on him, the whole body of Sleeping Beauty seemed to begin to emit a golden glow, flickering alternately, with faint rays of light shining through the bushes.
Not far away, a hungry human-faced demon spider that was searching for food in the snow noticed the glimmer of light, roared excitedly, and ran towards the bushes.
Just as it excitedly poked its head into the bushes, a golden-red beam of light shot out and shattered its head. The headless corpse fell to the ground, bleeding profusely.
"What the hell is this? It looks so ugly. It scares me to death."
Xu Mingxi made a path out of the corner of the bushes, fearing that he would be stained with any blood of the human-faced demon spider.
His injuries have healed, and the only proof that the battle had taken place is that the left half of his body is covered with burn-like marks, extending to the left side of his face, covering half of his face.
Fortunately, his storage soul guide ring was worn on his right hand, so it was not damaged. Xu Mingxi took out a mirror from it and looked at himself, then sighed deeply, wondering how he got disfigured.
But it's better than dying, at least he can survive. He took out his nightgown and put it on, one to cover his face, and the other to reduce his presence. He is still deep in the Evil Soul Forest.
Xu Mingxi put on his nightgown and prepared to set off towards Haidu. He believed that his grandfather and the others would be fine. The healing medicine made from the crystal blood dragon ginseng and the medicine-pounding rabbit were all with the eighth elder, which would be enough for them to recover.
"Hey, this isn't it."
Just as he was about to leave, Xu Mingxi's peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of the soul beast that he had just killed. Wasn't it a human-faced demon spider that was more than a thousand years old? There was actually such a weak soul beast in the depths of the Evil Soul Forest, and it seemed that its soul bones had exploded.
A starlight sword appeared in his hand, which pried open the body of the human-faced demon spider and pulled out a piece of bone emitting a purple halo, the right arm bone of the 1,500-year-old human-faced demon spider.
Xu Mingxi had no desire to absorb such a weak spirit bone, so it would be better to give it to Tang San, so that he would go further and further astray on the path of the spider and it would also be a waste of a spirit bone position for him.
If there is still time, Xu Mingxi will definitely stop Tang San from obtaining the Eight Spider Lance, which is a powerful weapon for Tang San who can use hidden weapons, and is also one of his biggest helpers in the early stage.
"I hope he hasn't been unconscious for long. Time is running out since we agreed with the Sect Master that I would return before Tang turns 32."
Xu Mingxi muttered to himself as he jumped among the trees, heading towards Haidu.
At this time, Haidu was still as prosperous as usual. Half a year had passed since the war. Even the Lord of Haidu had relaxed the search for Xu Mingxi and the other four wanted criminals.
When the three elders arrived in Haidu, they found the Shark Tooth Mercenary Group, which had once again become famous. They were the same five people who came with them, plus Huo Quan, their little follower.
After that, they stayed at the Shark Tooth Mercenary Group’s base, waiting for Xu Mingxi, but their hearts sank step by step to the bottom as time went by.
"Great Elder, you said Ming Xi, nothing will really happen to him, right?"
"Nonsense, Mingxi will be fine."
The Great Elder glared at the Ninth Elder who had said the wrong thing. In fact, he was also full of worries, but he was the strongest person here and could not show any weakness. For the people of Xingguan Sect, losing an arm was nothing. It did not affect their strength much. The Great Elder was still the 92nd level strong attack system Title Douluo who could dominate the world.
"Let's wait another half a year. If Mingxi still hasn't come back, I'll let Xu Zilong have a taste of what it's like to be targeted by a reckless Titled Douluo."
"Okay, let's go together."
The three elders looked at each other, as if they had made some kind of decision, but suddenly they heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door.
"The three elders are so angry. How about beating Xu Zilong and adding me?"
The great elder stood up suddenly and looked outside the door. When he saw the familiar figure, tears wet his clothes. After all, God did not let him die before his loved one.
"Mingxi, you are finally back."
The Great Elder instantly appeared in front of Xu Mingxi. Looking at the figure in front of him who was wearing ordinary soul master clothes and a golden mask, he raised his only remaining right hand tremblingly, trying to confirm whether he was dreaming or not.
Suddenly, he saw the scar hidden under Xu Mingxi's soul master robe, covering the entire left half of his neck and extending all the way under the mask.
"Mingxi, your face?"
Xu Mingxi smiled and took off the mask. He was already very grateful to be alive. Even if he was disfigured, he might have a chance to rebuild his appearance in the future.
The Great Elder looked at Xu Mingxi's cheek, which looked as if it had been burned by fire and had become bumpy and shocking. He wanted to reach out and touch it, but he was afraid that Xu Mingxi would be sad.
"Grandpa, it's okay. Let's talk about business first. There's not much time left until the time we agreed on."
"well."
Putting on the mask again, Xu Mingxi pulled the Great Elder to sit down. Song Jiang, who followed in, tactfully retreated. He knew that as a little Soul Saint, it would be better for him not to listen to what was going to happen next.
"Grandpa, two elders, let's not talk about what happened in the past. There are three important things to do now.
First, I want to obtain the ninth soul ring. Second, we need to snatch at least the relevant drawings of the eighth-level soul guide. Third, we need to find a way to return."
After absorbing the ninth soul ring and becoming a Titled Douluo, Xu Mingxi felt that he could already fight with Xu Zilong, and with the help of the Great Elder, he might even be able to kill him.
But the other party is the ruler of a country, and he has many Soul Douluo around him. Even the Sun and Moon Royal Family may have hidden Titled Douluo. If he wants to deal with him, not to mention whether he can succeed, the huge amount of time it will take is not something Xu Mingxi can accept.
At this stage, his biggest enemy is Tang San. His base is in Douluo Continent, and the inheritance is already in his hands. What Xu Mingxi needs to do now is to go back as soon as possible to seize the initiative.
Xu Zilong has no divine inheritance, nor a hundred thousand year spirit ring. Level ninety-eight is his limit. It will not be too late to avenge his disfigurement in ten years.
