As the Universe Turns - Chapter 485
Chapter 485 Immortal Alliance Order
After listening to his words, Xiao Chen’s face was calm. Luo Die slowly loosened her eyebrows. Presumably, there was nothing she could ask. Back then, her family had been killed by her father’s enemy, Yue Manfeng. Later on, the Yue family had been annihilated by someone else.
After a while, Dao Wuwei finally felt relieved when he saw that the two of them had slowly believed him. He then said, “Back then, Fellow Daoist Qianfeng gave me only the fragment of the secret manual. Not long ago, those two bad disciples of mine stole it. Now … they must have it in your hands.”
At this point, he raised his head and pretended to be scared. He shook his hands and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t dare to ask the two seniors for the secret manual back. I only hope that the two seniors don’t tell anyone about tonight. After all …”
“After all, you let the black-clothed messenger kill Qin Yan and Yun Wan.”
Luo Die suddenly said coldly. This time, she no longer used her True Qi to hold her throat. Instead, she used her original voice.
When Dao Wuwei heard this voice, it was as if he had seen a ghost. He looked at the person in front of him in disbelief. After a long time, he still couldn’t regain his senses and muttered, “You … are you Luo Die?”
“What? Did Master forget her disciple so quickly?”
Luo Die suddenly tore off the mask on his face. Dao Wuwei was even more shocked. How could it be her? Wasn’t she in Tomb of Gods and Demons? When did she come out? Then could this person beside her be the one who killed Yun Tianzi in Yang Valley?
This person actually had a Soul Formation cultivation … No, impossible. If he had a Soul Formation cultivation before, how could he be chased after by Yun Yazi? After going to Tomb of Gods and Demons …
Thinking of this, Dao Wuwei’s heart trembled even more. But no matter what, there was one thing that he was certain of, and that was that it was as easy as flipping a palm for this young man to take his life.
At this moment, he felt sweat pouring down his back. How could he imagine that the person who had just stood in front of him was actually Luo Die?
If he had told the truth about what had happened back then, what would have happened now? Just thinking about it made his heart tremble with fear, as if he had fallen into an endless cold abyss …
Xiao Chen walked forward and said indifferently, “She has done a lot for you over the years. She has paid back everything she deserves. Now, I want her soul essence back. I wonder if …”
As he spoke, his voice grew colder and colder. Dao Wuwei trembled deeply. He nodded his head repeatedly, “Good, good …” As he spoke, he waved his hand. A crack immediately opened on the stone wall of the secret hall. Then, a box automatically opened inside, and a black jade flew out.
Dao Wuwei held the jade stone in his hand and carefully handed it over to Xiao Chen. At this moment, his hands trembled slightly. This time, it wasn’t a feint, but the chill on Xiao Chen’s body made him suffocate.
Xiao Chen took the jade in his hand and handed it to Luo Die. Luo Die took the jade that sealed her soul essence and without the slightest hesitation, she pointed at it, drawing out the strand of her lifeblood soul essence and transforming it into a wisp of green smoke that drilled into her eyebrows.
Dao Wuwei heaved a sigh of relief. He didn’t dare to look up at the two of them, especially Xiao Chen. The pressure he was under was too great. After a long time, he saw him trembling and said, “I wonder if this fellow Daoist … has any other instructions.”
Xiao Chen looked at him and said coldly, “Within three days, I want an Immortal Alliance Token.”
“What …”
This time, he was shocked by Dao Wuwei. What did this person want the Immortal Alliance Token for? Even if he was the Peak Master, it would still be very difficult for him to obtain an Immortal Alliance Token from the First Peak Elder. How could he take this Immortal Alliance Token just by saying that he could?
“What? Is there a problem …”
Xiao Chen’s gaze turned much colder as he looked at him. Dao Wuwei’s heart trembled. He now clearly understood that not only was it easy for this person to kill him, but now that he had a handle on him, if he did not follow his instructions, he would have a hundred ways to kill him.
“No … no problem.”
Dao Wuwei had no choice but to forcefully agree. At this moment, there was still fear in his eyes. He looked at him with trembling eyes and said, “It’s just that … three days is too short. This Immortal Alliance Token is not so easy to obtain. Fellow Daoist … can you spare me a few days?”
“Seven days at most. If you don’t see the order, you’ll see the head.”
Xiao Chen’s voice was cold and firm. Dao Wuwei trembled slightly. In the end, he could only nod his head, “Good, good … within seven days, this lowly person will definitely hand over the Immortal Alliance Token to you …”
“I hope you remember.”
Xiao Chen coldly glanced at him. Before he left, he said, “Besides, she has nothing to do with you. If you dare to make things difficult for her again, I have a thousand ways to make your life worse than death.”
Dao Wuwei’s entire body trembled. He suddenly raised his head, feeling uneasy in his heart. He called himself Xiao. His surname was Xiao. He was young and had such ability. Could it be that he was … the descendant of the legendary six great ancient families, the Xiao Clan of the Central Plains …
Thinking of this, Dao Wuwei was even more panicked and uneasy. He nodded repeatedly, “Good, good” At this moment, Xiao Chen and Luo Die had already left.
For the next few days, Dao Wuwei was in constant panic. First, she was afraid that Xiao Chen would kill him and silence him. Third, she was worried that the events of that year would reappear. Luo Die didn’t know anything now. If she found out one day, wouldn’t it be …
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Suddenly, killing intent appeared in his eyes, and he secretly thought of removing Luo Die. However, when he thought of the young man beside her, he shivered deeply and didn’t dare to continue to think about it.
Seven days later, the bright moon was like a disk, but the moonlight was as cold as frost. Xiao Chen and Luo Die were waiting in the secret hall, so Dao Wuwei probably didn’t dare to play any tricks.
When it was almost midnight, a burst of hurried footsteps finally sounded from outside. However, Dao Wuwei had returned. He hurried into the hall and quickly handed a black token to Xiao Chen without saying a word.
Xiao Chen took the token and let Luo Die take a look. After confirming that it was true, he stood up and glanced at Dao Wuwei before leaving, leaving behind a very deep sentence: If anyone didn’t know, they couldn’t do anything.
This sentence frightened Dao Wuwei to the point that his face was as white as paper. He stood there for a long time without daring to move. It was probably dawn that he woke up from his shock. His body had long been soaked in cold sweat, and for the next few days, his soul had been lost.
…
At this time, Xiao Chen and Luo Die had long since left the Southern Immortal Alliance’s territory. The two of them had also changed back into their original attire. In the Heaven Ranked Domain, not many people recognized them.
As dusk fell, Xiao Chen stopped and looked at Luo Die. “I’m going back. Where are you going?” He said.
“I…”
Luo Die raised her head and looked at the clouds on the horizon. She saw a lonely goose pass through the clouds. For a moment, she did not know where she was going. After thinking for a long time, she said, “Go to the Mortal Realm.”
