Chapter 786 - 712: Plague Emperor?_2
He took out a rope and tied up the Fire Phoenix, Yinglong, and the others, stringing them all together into a long line.
At this moment, these Divine Beasts finally realized…
These people spared their lives… just to eat them?
Instantly, the Divine Beasts began to howl in despair, their morale shattered.
“Eh, Dead Dog, why is this guy still in human form?”
Suddenly, Wu Dade noticed an old man in front of him, shivering and crouching down.
“Ignorant Human Pet, he was always a human being!”
Big Black Dog spoke up, turning its head to look at Yun Xi with a fawning expression, saying:
“This old fellow seems to have some karmic ties with you. Do you want to keep him, or shall we kill him?”
Upon hearing this, Yun Xi turned her gaze toward the elderly man.
That old man… was none other than Lin Xuehan’s grandfather, the Lin Family Patriarch, Lin Lantian!
“No… don’t kill me, don’t kill me… I don’t want to die!”
At this moment, Lin Lantian looked up at Yun Xi as if grabbing at the last straw, saying:
“Don’t kill me… I, I am your great-great-grandfather!”
He pleaded,
“…What… what’s your name? Miss, you have my blood in your body… you can’t kill me, if you kill me, Heavenly Dao won’t allow it!”
But as soon as he finished this sentence, a bolt of heavenly thunder suddenly descended.
Boom!
It struck him directly!
“Ah…”
Lin Lantian screamed miserably, half of his body was obliterated!
“No… what’s happening… what’s happening…”
Lin Lantian was terrified beyond belief. He couldn’t imagine why, after just one sentence… he had attracted thunder and suffered such a catastrophe!
Could it be because of Lin Xuehan’s illegitimate daughter?
No… impossible, how could she possess such power… he refused to believe it!
“Eh… isn’t this outside the Yang Realm? Why is there heavenly thunder here?”
Wu Dade was also very curious.
But Big Black Dog, with a look of disdain, said:
“This old man simply can’t stop seeking his own death… Originally, at his mere Divine Path level, he doesn’t even have the qualifications to be involved in karmic affairs. But, this person has some slight connections with Yun Xi, and yet he dared to make such outrageous claims… which has indeed attracted divine punishment!”
“It is lucky for him that this is the Yang Realm, and also that the Ancestral Heavenly Dao of the Yang Realm has disappeared. Otherwise, based on what he said, this old guy wouldn’t even qualify for reincarnation, he’d become ashes directly.”
It revealed many secrets!
There were unspeakable karmic ties associated with Yun Xi…
But, ordinary people were completely unable to touch such karma.
Just like an ant cursing a dragon in the sky, what’s the use? Heavenly Dao wouldn’t even glance at an ant.
Only those of high enough status have the qualifications to discuss karma.
Like the bizarre old man, who could be called a Patriarch of the Dao, he merely stepped over the threshold and gained the qualifications to touch upon karma.
As for Yun Xi, when she looked at Lin Lantian, it was as though he were a stranger.
A great-great-grandfather?
She felt no surge of emotion, not even a ripple—in fact, there was a hint of hatred.
All her life, she had been asking her father where her mother had gone…
For so many years, she wanted to find her mother but never had any leads.
All of this was because of the Lin Family!
“Lead the way… I want to go to the Lin Family!”
Yun Xi spoke to Lin Lantian.
Upon hearing this, Lin Lantian, in a state of panic, hurriedly got up, dragging his half-incinerated body, hopping and skipping along, saying:
“Good… I’ll lead the way, I’ll lead the way right away!”
Straightaway, everyone got up and left this world.
…
Not long after they left.
“Damn… they finally left!”
From the shadows, a middle-aged man emerged. He patted his chest, looking immensely relieved.
“I, Old Ao, was almost done for here!”
He was incredibly grateful that he had managed to survive!
But immediately after, he began to worry again.
“Even the Divine Realm is not safe, this little village, that Big Black Dog… is like a haunting ghost.”
The Yang Realm was vast, but where could he find a refuge?
“That cursed little village is untouchable, but I don’t believe I can’t avoid you for the rest of my life!”
Once he steeled himself, he looked toward the stone gate that led out of the Yang Realm.
Then, he went straight up to it without hesitation, exited the Yang Realm, and moved forward without looking back.
But, he had only taken a few steps when in the vast void, thunderbolts began crashing down toward him!
Ao Wushuang was dumbfounded. Damn… he was just a Venerable, not even tainted by the Origin of the Grey Mist, why should thunder strike him?
“No… I don’t want to die!”
Ao Wushuang gave it his all, his legs suddenly bursting with power!
Then he ran like crazy!
At this moment, those heavenly thunders… they couldn’t quite catch up to him.
Then, from the sky above, relentless thunder continued to fall, closely following him, as if even the heavens had become enraged!
…
Meanwhile.
In some vast expanse of the void.
A group of people stood completely dumbfounded.
“What’s going on… the small world we finally found, how could it just disappear?”
“Could it be an illusion?”
“Impossible, how could it be an illusion? It was so real, that ancient tomb, it must contain a great opportunity!”
The group was perplexed.
—They were from a power from the Primordial Ancestral World known as “Radiant Fighting Sect”!
The Radiant Fighting Sect has always enjoyed roaming outside the Primordial Ancestral World, searching for world fragments shattered into the boundless void during the wars of The Era of the Ancient White Mist. Those fragments concealed precious treasures…
They specialized in excavating relics, seeking ancient tombs, and tomb raiding for treasures.
Especially the ancient tombs left from before the Age of White Mist, those were their favorites.
Because tomb raiding is also called inverting, the meaning of their Radiant Fighting Sect was… to raid every single ancient tomb!
A while ago, they discovered this place, the vast Broken Lost Land, and through various methods, finally unearthed a small world and even located several large tombs, ready for the taking.
However, this small world had now vanished.
The entire Broken Lost Land had also disappeared.
“Respected ones, I told you, pushing me ahead, nothing good would come of it, back in the Yang Realm, I was known as the Plague Emperor, especially good at bringing plagues and bad luck… Please let me go!”
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a bitter expression among the group, began to plead!
His clothes were tattered like those of a coal miner; his hair was somewhat white, showing signs of old age.
“Ao Dusheng, stop spouting nonsense!”
At this moment, a leader in the team coldly spoke:
“Now that the Broken Lost Land has disappeared, hurry up and lead the way, take us to the Yang Realm!”
…This middle-aged man was none other than the once-renowned Plague Emperor in the Yang Realm, Ao Dusheng!
In the past, he too had ventured into the Broken Lost Land, seeking opportunity.
Heaven knows how, but he actually made it through and truly arrived at a vast world.
Just as he did, he encountered people from the Radiant Fighting Sect…
And was captured, turned into cannon fodder!
These people were even forcing him to lead them to the Yang Realm!
Upon hearing the command, Ao Dusheng let out a quiet sigh and said:
“Alright…”
As he spoke, he moved toward a certain direction.
While moving forward, he muttered to himself in a low voice:
“I, Ao Dusheng, overcame all enemies in the Yang Realm, how come it’s not working this time?”
He seemed very puzzled!
Meanwhile, in the back of the team, a cultivator also said to the leader:
“Sir, this Ao Dusheng truly has some nefarious luck; following his brother before, we’ve already lost several of our men.”
The leader let out a cold laugh and said:
“He may have attracted some bad luck, but it doesn’t matter, see this? This can suppress bad luck, he won’t affect us!”
He took out a jade statue from his hands!
However, before he finished speaking, the jade statue suddenly snapped into pieces!
The leader was immediately stunned, dammit… what’s going on?
This jade statue was his amulet, his lifesaver throughout half his life, entering ancient tombs, braving underground palaces, relying on this Jade Talisman for protection…
Now it had actually broken?
Could it be, could it be that a great misfortune was descending?
He became somewhat alarmed!
“No, look… Sir, look ahead, what is that?!”
Suddenly, one of the cultivators pointed ahead in shock.
All of them looked and saw that in the vast expanse of space, there was… a sea of moving thunder!
It was moving extremely fast, to the extreme!
At first glance, it was tens of thousands of li away; in the blink of an eye, it was right in front of them.
“Damn… someone, someone is undergoing heavenly tribulation?”
The leader was immediately shocked, damn it, for them to run into this?
No, it was clearly the thunder tribulation coming at them!
What’s going on… was this running into the worst luck imaginable???
…
Two long chapters today, how’s that for satisfaction?
Goodnight.
