Killing God - Chapter 275
Chapter 275 Threats
The wheels crushed the stone road and traveled all the way to Blood Moon City’s city gate. Several cultivators guarding the city gate welcomed them. Apart from a few occasional coughs, there was no movement in the carriage. The four Divine Concept cultivators standing around the carriage also had indifferent expressions and didn’t have any intention of opening their mouths.
Standing in the circle around the carriage, a young cultivator walked over to the guards and whispered a few words to the leader of them. The guard leader’s body trembled slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. At the same time, he could clearly see a hint of reverence.
In Blood Moon City, The momentum of the Divine Immortal Gathering was no small matter, Not to mention that all the worthy opponents in the business had been defeated one by one by Shopkeeper Shen, Just by looking at the number of cultivators and experts that the branch store had, it was a powerful force that could crush almost all the forces in Blood Moon City. It could even be said that the branch store of the Divine Immortal Society was already second to none in this dangerous alien world that was filled with dangers, dangers, but also countless treasures and spirit materials, at least in the human race.
However, despite his strength, However, under the leadership of Shen, it seemed that the Divine Immortal Society did not have any special ambitions. On the contrary, they had always been doing business honestly in Blood Moon City. There was no bullying between the old and the young, and the good and the cheap. It seemed that their powerful martial power was only to ensure their own safety, and they had never gone out to do any robbery and occupation.
As a result, after a long time, the other cultivators who were originally terrified and uneasy felt relieved. They should explore and cultivate. Those who were lucky enough to obtain some precious spirit materials would go to the branch shop of the Divine Immortal Association to patronize them. This reputation for stability was even spread through the mouth of the cultivators who came and went. Gradually, the number of cultivators who came to the Blood Moon Realm, be it rogue cultivators or disciples of other cultivation sects like Lin Lin, began to slowly increase. As for Blood Moon City, which was originally a deserted and remote place, it actually gradually became somewhat prosperous.
As a result, the business of the Blood Moon City branch of the Divine Immortal Association became more and more prosperous. Every day, amongst the inconspicuous crowd at the counter, the spirit crystals and precious spirit materials and treasures they received gradually grew richer and richer.
Apart from the people from the Divine Immortal Society, outsiders might not be very clear about the relationship between them, but now everyone understood that the Divine Immortal Society was already the boss in Blood Moon City. As for Shopkeeper Shen, he was naturally a noble person that could not be offended.
The guards quickly moved aside and the city gate opened. As a result, a group of people surrounded the carriage and walked out of the city. Along the way, everyone was calm and silent. Only a few coughs seemed to have drifted over from the carriage.
Under the city gate, a guard suddenly said, “Shopkeeper Shen’s body doesn’t seem to be very well?”
The guard leader glanced at him and said unhappily, “Nonsense, didn’t they say that this shopkeeper’s cultivation level is not high, only the Qi Refining Realm?” “Not to mention the rampage of demonic beasts in the Blood Moon Realm, there are countless miasma poisonous gases. They are all things that can be used to vomit blood in a single breath. Ordinary people simply cannot survive. I think his Qi Refining Realm body is also quite troublesome!”
“How about this” The few people beside him nodded their heads, their gazes staring at the group that was gradually moving away. Someone suddenly asked with some confusion, “Since Shopkeeper Shen’s health is not good, why did he leave the city again? The dangers outside the city are much more formidable than in Blood Moon City now.”
The leader was also stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, he didn’t think of anything to do. He could only shrug his shoulders and say, “Who knows? Anyway, these big shots have something to do. Alright, close the door!”
As the guards chatted and whispered behind them, The procession of the Divine Immortal Society continued to move forward silently but in an orderly manner. Once they left the city, the first thing they felt was that the sky outside the city had suddenly darkened a little. Apart from a potholed dirt road beneath their feet, there were puddles of bushes and thorns everywhere. Occasionally, a few strange-looking little animals would run through the water.
The sky was gloomy. The clouds were very low, and the air was wet. Even the wind that blew across one’s face made one feel as if a faint mist had hit one’s face.
This place looked like a swamp, but in fact, it was indeed like this.
The only ancient teleportation formation made of the Golden Embryo Stone in the Blood Moon Realm was located in this vast area, hiding countless ferocious demonic beasts. It was always dark, humid, and dangerous in the “Water Ghost Swamp”.
This dirt road continued to extend into the depths of the swamp. However, as the group advanced, the edges of the path gradually became blurry. More and more puddles appeared, and the water vapor became more and more abundant. When they occasionally turned around, they would discover that Blood Moon City had already disappeared from their line of sight.
Insect cries gradually resounded in the surrounding swamp. It was as if the arrival of these human cultivators had disturbed something. Some of the dark and bright gazes hidden in the depths of the undergrowth, like small animals or unknown dark creatures, were coldly spying on them.
The sky was gloomy.
At some unknown time, the team in front suddenly stopped. This dirt road was finally completely invisible, and the rest of the line of sight was filled with boundless swamp water pools.
This was already the depths of the Waterghost Swamp. The Immortal Society cultivators guarding the carriage no longer looked as calm as they had when they first left the city. They looked at the surrounding swamp with vigilance on their faces. Even the four Divine Concept cultivators standing closest to the carriage had serious expressions on their faces.
Suddenly, a “flapping sound” sounded from the gray sky. A bird flapped its wings from an unknown place in the depths of the swamp and flew through the air. From afar, the bird was not big, but its feathers were bright and beautiful. It flew all the way to the top of the group. After circling for a while, it slowly flew down.
When the bird flew closer, everyone could see it clearly. It was like a parrot with golden feathers and red feathers interweaving. It looked very beautiful and bright, and the direction it landed was actually the carriage in the middle of the group.
The four Divine Concept cultivators’ expressions also changed slightly. They stood at the back left of the carriage and saw that the youngest man among the four was around thirty years old. His expression darkened as he took a step forward.
However, at this moment, a voice suddenly came from the carriage and said calmly,
“Little Qi, there’s no harm.”
The cultivator surnamed Qi paused for a moment, as if he respected the people in the carriage, so he quickly retracted his footsteps.
As a result, under the gaze of more than a dozen human cultivators, The beautiful bird flapped its wings, When it landed in front of the carriage, it turned around and looked around. There was actually no intention of being afraid. Turning around, it saw a curtain blowing in front of the carriage, blocking the front. It snorted and slowly walked over. At the same time, the bird head poked its head out, as if it was carefully looking at this thing, as if it had never seen it before.
Walking to the curtain, Xiaoniao looked at it for a while. Try to grab the curtain with the beak of a bird, However, a hand quickly reached out from the carriage and gently lifted the curtain. Xiaoniao was shocked and took a step back. However, she seemed to feel a little embarrassed. She let out two angry cries as if she was demonstrating against the people in the carriage. After a while, she lowered her head and drilled into the gap between the curtains.
As soon as they entered the carriage, they immediately felt that the interior of the carriage was much drier and warmer than the outside. Small windows were opened on both sides of the small carriage, but they were tightly covered with fine and breathable gauze. This was to prevent some strange bugs from flying into the carriage from the Waterghost Swamp, including the curtains. Apart from that, there weren’t too many decorations in the carriage. There were only two blankets and a few soft cushions to make it more comfortable for people to sit here.
A short fat man was leaning on these soft cushions, looking at the beautiful golden bird with red feathers with a gentle expression.
Time seemed to have returned to the past in an instant. Time had passed, and his face had aged. However, the outline of his face seemed to be the same as before in Xilu City. He was Shen Tai.
Compared to eight years ago, his figure did not change much, but his face looked much older. Especially his hair had already turned gray between his temples. Occasionally, he would cough a few times, but only his eyes were very bright, and even more so than before.
The bird got into the carriage and saw the short fatty at first glance. Then, the fatty smiled at it and said,
“Hello!”
Xiaoniao glared at the fatty with a ferocious look in her eyes.
Shen Tai chuckled and sat there leisurely. After a while, the little bird seemed to feel a little impatient. Suddenly, it opened its mouth and said,
“Human, are you here to die?”
A small bird spat out human words, moreover, it was filled with malicious threats. It was truly shocking, but Shen Tai did not seem to have any strange expression. He still had a gentle smile on his face, and he actually answered the bird’s words very formally.
“No.”
‘”Bah!” The little bird raised its head proudly and said, “Then what are you doing in our swamp? Let me tell you, just yesterday, the python raised by my family had just swallowed you two alive!”
Shen Tai smiled and said, “We are different from those people.”
Xiaoniao sneered and said, “What’s the difference? There isn’t a single good person in your human race who has done those dirty things all day long!”
Shen Tai looked at the bird and calmly said, “I’m not saying that we’re good people and the others are bad people. I mean, we’re much stronger than the other humans who came over. If you dare to ignore me, I’ll destroy your clan and kill all the Water Ghoul clansmen here.”
Xiaoniao was stunned, and her expression instantly froze. Then, she looked at Shen Tai with her mouth half open, unable to say a word for a long time.
