A bloody hole appeared between the old man's eyebrows, his body stiffened instantly, and his eyes widened, full of unwillingness and shock.
He never expected that Ye Qiu's speed and strength would be so powerful that he was killed on the spot before he could even use the secret technique that he was proud of.
"Bang!"
The old man's body fell weakly to the ground. Ye Qiu flashed and quickly held Xiaodie in his arms.
Then, he turned around and kicked.
"puff!"
The old man's body was trampled to pieces.
"Xiaodie, it's okay, I'll take you home." Ye Qiu said softly, his tone full of tenderness and comfort.
Although Xiaodie was still unconscious, she seemed to feel Ye Qiu's aura, her brows relaxed slightly, and her face softened a bit.
Then, Ye Qiu's eyes fell on Xiaodie's face.
"Strange, why do the people from the Nether Clan want to capture Xiaodie? Is it a coincidence, or does it have other motives?"
Ye Qiu felt a little strange.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Lao Jiu let out a surprised sound.
"What's wrong?" Ye Qiu asked.
Lao Jiu chuckled and said, "Boy, I have to say, you are really lucky."
"What do you mean by this?" Ye Qiu asked.
Lao Jiu said: "When the time comes, you will know it."
To make things mysterious.
Ye Qiu suddenly remembered something, grabbed Xiaodie's right hand, exposed the purple crystal bracelet on her wrist, and asked: "Old Jiu, this bracelet seems a bit extraordinary, can you tell its origin?"
"Nonsense! I think back then, I traveled all over the world and never saw anything. How could a mere bracelet be hidden from my eyes?" Lao Jiu said.
Ye Qiu said: "Tell me about it."
"I'll just say it if you ask me to?" Lao Jiu said: "As I said before, when the time comes, you will know it."
"By the way, watch this little girl and don't let her fall into the hands of others."
"She will be of great use to you."
When Ye Qiu heard this, he couldn't help but frowned. Could it be that Xiaodie's identity is not simple?
"Old Jiu, just tell me what you know. With our relationship, why should we hide it?" Ye Qiu said.
Lao Jiu chuckled and said: "Anyway, remember my words, you will know when the time comes."
Depend on!
Ye Qiu was extremely angry, but had no choice but to say: "Old Jiu, have you heard this sentence?"
"What are you talking about?" Lao Jiu asked.
Ye Qiu said: "If you don't finish what you say, your luck will be half as bad."
Lao Jiu said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, my body is not intact now."
"It's your grandma's." Ye Qiu cursed, picked up Xiaodie, turned around and walked towards the imperial city.
at the same time.
Hades!
This is a dark, isolated place.
There is no sunshine here, the sky is always shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds, and even time seems to be swallowed up by this endless darkness.
There was an oppressive and strange aura permeating the surroundings, which chilled people's hearts, as if every inch of space was filled with death and despair.
In this dark world, a majestic palace stands.
It is built of dark rocks and towers into the clouds, like a sleeping giant, quietly overlooking this dead land.
The surroundings of the hall are covered with all kinds of strange runes and totems, shining with a faint blue light, adding a bit of mystery and terror to the already gloomy hall.
Inside the main hall, the light was dim, with only a few lamps lit by netherworld fires emitting a faint light, barely illuminating the space.
In the center of the main hall, there is a throne made of bones.
There was a young figure sitting on the seat.
He was wearing a gorgeous black robe and an exquisite mask on his face, revealing only a pair of deep and cold eyes.
This person is the prince of the Underworld!
On both sides below the Prince of the Underworld, six old men and an old woman sat respectively, each with a deep breath.
These seven people are all elders of the Nether Clan.
At the scene, except for the seats of the tenth elder and the ninth elder, there was also an empty chair.
This chair is just under the left hand of the Prince of the Nether Clan. This is the exclusive seat for the Great Elder of the Nether Clan.
However, now the great elder of the Nether Clan cannot come out of seclusion, so this chair has always been empty.
It is no exaggeration to say that these people in the hall at this moment are the masters of this dark world, and they control the fate of the Hades.
The prince of the underworld was sitting on the throne. Under the mask, a pair of sinister eyes flashed and he asked: "Is there any news from the ninth elder and the tenth elder?"
The fifth elder replied: "Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince, Lao Jiu and Lao Ten have not sent back any news, but you don't have to worry. After all, Lao Jiu and Lao Ten are peerless saint kings. With their strength, this trip will definitely succeed."
The old woman then said: "Yes, everyone knows the strength of Lao Jiu and Lao Ten, and it is no problem to handle such a small thing."
Hearing this, the eyes of the Nether Clan Crown Prince softened and he said: "When they come back, they will be able to open the gate to the underworld. At that time, I will be able to lead the Nether Clan army to wipe out the world of cultivation."
"I just can't understand why she doesn't support my decision and why she has to run away?"
"Hmph, if she didn't run away, we, the Nether Tribe, wouldn't be able to get so much nourishment."
"When the ninth elder and the tenth elder come back, I will definitely make her look good."
The words of the Prince of the Underworld were full of murderous intent.
At this time, the Seventh Elder said: "Your Highness, after all, she has the blood of Emperor Ming. When Lao Jiu and Lao Ten come back, I hope you will show your favor."
"Yes!" The third elder also said: "No matter what, I still hope that His Highness the Crown Prince can spare her life, otherwise we will not be able to explain it when Emperor Hades is resurrected!"
The second elder also said: "Your Highness, you must be very careful about how to deal with her. Anyway, when Lao Jiu and the others come back, she will no longer be able to affect the overall situation."
The prince of the underworld sneered: "Don't worry, I won't kill her. No matter what, she is my biological sister, and I will definitely let her live well."
His tone was cold, and everyone present understood that even if she came back, she would probably be worse off than dead.
"We won't discuss her now. Let's discuss the matter of sweeping away the world of cultivation!" The prince of the Nether Clan said: "The world of cultivation has a vast territory, a large population, many experts, and separate factions. Where should we start the sweep? Elders
What do you think?"
"I think we should start with the Eastern Wilderness first." The Eighth Elder said, "The Eastern Wilderness has the Yin Yang Sect, the Butian Sect, the Ancient Holy Land, the Taichu Holy Land, and the Qingyun Sword Sect."
"I heard that among all the monks, those who practice swordsmanship have the hardest bones."
"How about we start from the Qingyun Sword Sect?"
After the information about the Nether Clan dropped, they still had no idea that the pattern of the world of cultivation had already changed.
As soon as the eighth elder finished speaking, suddenly, a guard wearing armor rushed up in a hurry.
The guard turned pale and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, something serious has happened."
As soon as these words came out, for some reason, several elders at the scene felt a little bad in their hearts at the same time.
