As the Universe Turns - Chapter 424
Chapter 424 Lincheng
“If you don’t have one … then scram.”
The voice coming from within the city was clearly Jian Xuanfeng. He had already noticed Xiao Chen when he passed through the Yin Wind Mountain Ridge, but he did not place any restrictions outside the city. Obviously, he did not put Xiao Chen and his group in his eyes at all.
At this moment, the crowd was completely silent. Everyone held their breath and stared at Xiao Chen. Although they wanted to leave the Earth Fiend Domain, there was still White Bone City ahead. How could they say that they would be able to break through? It would be great if there was room for negotiation.
After a while, there was no sound coming from the city. Saintess Canglang couldn’t help but frown. Jian Xuanfeng wanted 300,000 magical primeval stones, so they couldn’t take them out anyway. They asked Xiao Chen, “Senior … what should we do now?”
“We will follow the rules first.”
Xiao Chen looked at the city wall that was blown by the gloomy wind and said indifferently.
In this situation, Saintess Canglang did not know how to behave. He looked back and happened to see Guai Laoxie and the others. He said, “You guys go.”
Guai Laoxie’s neck shrank, and he felt a chill down his spine. He sighed, “Ai! I can only do such a thing as Xianli, Guai Laoxie!”
As he spoke, he saw him swaggered forward with an unafraid look on his face. It was rather funny.
After about a hundred steps, he stopped. Finally, he didn’t dare to get too close. He put his hands on his waist and loudly said, “Young child Wu Na Jian Xuanfeng! Hurry up and open the city gate to welcome your grandfather. Let your grandfather Guai Laoxie in!”
Perhaps this was what he called “courtesy,” and the thirty thousand people behind him could only feel a burst of cold sweat coming out of their foreheads.
After cursing for a while, there was still no sound coming from the city. Guai Laoxie gradually grew impatient and pointed at the city gate and scolded, “Jian Xuanfeng! You eighth grandson of the Turtle King, you shrunk your head and didn’t dare to come out to fight your grandfather. If you don’t come out again, you will be a fake turtle grandson …”
At this point, he lowered his head to ponder and whispered to himself, “Eh? Something seems wrong. He is the son of a turtle. Then I, Guai Laoxie, will become the eighth son of a turtle. Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah! Bah!”
“Pu!”
Seeing Guai Laoxie’s funny appearance, Luo Die couldn’t help but cover her mouth and smile. Under such a tense situation, only she could laugh out loud. When she saw Xiao Chen looking at her with a serious expression, she gently stuck out her tongue and restrained her smile.
“Jian Xuanfeng, is this grandson of yours coming out or not … Sigh! Forget it, he’s so tired of cursing Guai Laoxie …”
Guai Laoxie scolded him for a long time, but his mouth felt dry. He suspected that Jian Xuanfeng was either deaf or stupid, so it was strange that no one would react after cursing his ancestors for eighteen generations.
At this moment, a strand of sword qi suddenly came from the void. This strand of sword qi came in a hurry. Fortunately, Guai Laoxie reacted in time and retreated. With a “zheng” sound, the strand of sword qi landed on the ground. Immediately, rubble splashed everywhere, and a bottomless crack appeared on the ground.
“Who … who ambushed your grandfather!”
Cold sweat broke out on Guai Laoxie’s back. He raised his head and looked at White Bone City. Suddenly, a figure appeared on the city wall. It was a white-clothed youth with his hands tied to his chest. He looked at the thirty thousand people with a contemptuous expression.
Guai Laoxie thought that something was wrong. Could it be that such a young youth was Jian Xuanfeng’s son? “That white-masked brat Wu! Why did he ambush your great-grandfather just now?” He shouted.
“Whose dog didn’t hold it and ran over to someone else’s door to make a fuss.” The white-clothed youth glanced sideways at Guai Laoxie and sneered.
Guai Laoxie was instantly enraged and was about to curse, “Do you dare to come down and fight me?” But when he said that, he suddenly remembered that judging from the sword strike just now, this kid’s cultivation should be above his own. If he really came down, wouldn’t Guai Laoxie suffer a huge loss today? Forget it, he changed his tone and said, “You’re a younger brother. I don’t know much about you.”
After taking advantage of his words, Guai Laoxie tactfully retreated back. The white-robed youth on the city wall laughed loudly and looked at Xiao Chen. “You’re that Wu Chen? With this little person, you probably don’t have enough spirit power to fill the Ten Thousand Bones Formation. Haha, White Bone City isn’t a place for children. Where did you come from? Go back where you came from!”
Hearing him address Xiao Chen as a child, Luo Die couldn’t help but frown. She thought to herself that this youth was truly arrogant and arrogant. Although White Bone City was powerful, even though there was an ancient array, how did he know that no expert had appeared outside the God Devil Tomb in the past thousand years? Not to mention anything else, the master who gifted Xiao Yichen with the Fuxi Zither was probably a powerful existence that Jian Xuanfeng could not imagine.
Thinking of this, Luo Die took a step forward and said unhappily, “Hey, child, where is your young master?”
The white-clothed youth looked at her and smiled, “This beautiful sister, she was eager to inquire about our young master. Could it be that she couldn’t wait to give up her life? That’s good, too. I’ll lure you into the city. If you serve the young master happily tonight, I might let you pass. Otherwise, I’ll bring you three hundred thousand magic essence stones.”
“You …”
Luo Die immediately raised her eyebrows and wanted to say something. Xiao Chen reached out and stopped her. He looked at the city and said indifferently, “I want to see your Young Master.”
“Haha!”
The white-clothed youth raised his head and smiled, “What do you think you are? You said that you are worthy to meet the Young Master. Are you worthy to meet the Young Master?”
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Chen suddenly disappeared from where he was. In the next instant, he appeared at the top of the city wall and stood beside the youth, “Where is he?”
The white-clothed youth felt suffocated. He instinctively attacked. However, when his fists struck Xiao Chen, it only shattered an afterimage. The real Xiao Chen stood behind him again. It was as easy as taking his life.
“I don’t want to waste my time with you. Let him come out.” Xiao Chen’s voice was cold.
Seeing that this youth was defeated, Guai Laoxie shouted loudly from below, making you arrogant just now. Now you know that it’s better for adults, right?
“Haha …”
However, the white-clothed youth did not panic. He smiled faintly, “If you want to see Young Master, you can. If you have the guts, follow me.” With that, he kicked his feet and flew into the city.
Seeing that Xiao Chen was about to follow, Luo Die was immediately shocked, “Wait, don’t go! He wants to lure you into the Myriad Bones Formation …”
How could Xiao Chen not know what this youth was going to do? However, if he didn’t break through White Bone City’s Myriad Bone Formation, he wouldn’t be able to pass through this place. Since that was the case, he might as well go and see how powerful this Myriad Bone Formation was. In any case, he was well-advised and knew how to advance and retreat.
When the white-clothed youth saw him chase after him, he smiled coldly and thought to himself, “A wild brat who doesn’t know the heavens and earth happened to be unable to find the Bone God Sacrifice. Today, he will use thirty thousand of you to sacrifice the formation. As for the two women, the young lord will definitely be very happy to see them …”
