Chapter 2258 - 2258 He Didn’t Know

2258 He Didn’t Know

Yi Zhao instantly clenched his fists!

Mu Dongyou said again,”The purest bloodline is the same as the ancestor of the red-gold heavenly phoenix race. In time, she will definitely be able to successfully open the ninth meridian. Yi Zhao, if you can persuade her to surrender, I guarantee that we can let bygones be bygones for your red-gold heavenly phoenix race.”

“Even if it’s not for yourself, you have to consider your clansmen, right?”

“How long do you think you can seal them in Godly Phoenix Mountain? There’s not much bloodline power left in your body. In a while, before we do anything, the barrier will automatically disintegrate. At that time, won’t the red-gold heavenly phoenix race still face a predicament?” Mu Dongyou looked at Yi Zhao steadily.

After a long time, Yi Zhao finally sneered. His voice was cold and mocking. “My red-gold heavenly phoenix race… When have we ever committed any crimes?! You know best who’s in the wrong!”

Mu Dongyou’s expression darkened as he warned in a low voice, “Yi Zhao!”

However, Yi Zhao didn’t seem to hear the anger and warning in his words. Or perhaps he didn’t care at all.

“The choice of the ancestor is also the choice of our entire race! Mu Dongyou, there are some things that you can do. Our red-gold heavenly phoenix race is heartless, but we will never do it!”

“I advise you to save your strength and stop talking nonsense. No matter how much you grind your mouth and repeat yourself a million times, my answer will never change! No matter how much you say, it will only make me feel that you guys are even more ridiculous.”

Mu Dongyou’s expression was cold as he waved his hand!

Whoosh—

The black chain wrapped around Yi Zhao trembled violently, emitting a cold collision sound.

Yi Zhao’s body trembled slightly from the intense pain. A stream of blood with a faint reddish-gold color slowly flowed out of the wound on his wrist and spread along the chain.

The thick smell of blood gradually spread.

The surrounding golden lightning seemed to have sensed something and became restless.

Mu Dongyou snorted coldly, and they gradually regained their calm. Then, a longan-sized blood ball gradually condensed in front of Mu Dongyou.

The blood ball contained a wisp of pure gold color and flickered with a weak light.

Mu Dongyou took a look and frowned.

Although Yi Zhao was the clan leader and had opened the seventh meridian, he had been trapped here for so long. No matter how much bloodline power he had, there would be a time when it was exhausted.

Compared to the initial situation, the bloodline power in this blood mass was too diluted. It wasn’t even one-fifth of what it was at that time.

Pfft.

A chuckle escaped from Yi Zhao’s lips. “If you really have the ability, just kill me.”

As for Yi Gong… Although he was obedient, he was a traitor and couldn’t be placed in an important position.

If Yi Gong had also opened the seventh meridian, he could consider it. Unfortunately—

Mu Dongyou walked forward. Wherever he passed, the surrounding lightning quickly moved aside.

After a while, he arrived somewhere and suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look.

A man was standing not far away, holding a hammer and tapping it from time to time on a reef.

Knock knock.

Knock knock.

Mu Dongyou was already in a bad mood. When he heard this sound, he became even more frustrated, and he shouted in a deep voice, “Who is it?!”

Si Jing was originally focused on investigating the situation in the reef and didn’t notice anyone approaching. When he heard the voice, he suddenly woke up and looked back. “You are…”

Si Jing’s eyes quickly swept across the other party, and he suddenly understood. “The Fourth Deity?”

Mu Dongyou frowned. “Who are you and what are you doing here?!”

Si Jing cupped fists. “I’m Si Jing. I came here today… to use the power of the heavenly lightning here to temper my Holy Body.”

Mu Dongyou stared at him suspiciously. His appearance just now was indeed a little strange.

Si Jing looked up and probed. “May I ask, Fourth Deity, is it… impossible to come here?”

He had already heard from Master that the depths of this lightning pool was a forbidden area and not to be approached easily. Therefore, he only stayed at the edge.

There shouldn’t be anything wrong with this, right?

Mu Dongyou didn’t speak. His eyes were cold as he examined Si Jing.

“Or… did I do something wrong just now?” Although Si Jing was usually bold and rough, he was careful in his actions. Otherwise, Cen Yi wouldn’t have specially chosen him to stay in the Mystic Forest with him.

After a long silence, Mu Dongyou said, “Nothing.”

Actually, there were many people who entered the lightning pool and did everything. It wasn’t that he hadn’t seen it before.

What Si Jing did in front of him was nothing compared to many people. However, he happened to be in a bad mood.

Seeing Si Jing’s serious and honest expression, the doubts in Mu Dongyou’s heart gradually dissipated. His figure moved, and he headed into the distance again.

Si Jing watched him leave until he could no longer see him. Then, he slowly exhaled.

After that, he looked back at the continuous and rugged reefs in confusion. “Tsk, this Fourth Deity doesn’t seem to know the secret…”

Didn’t they say that he is fully in charge of this lightning pool? He doesn’t even know about this? Si Jing scratched his head and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

…

On the other side, Xiao Ba was refining medicine in her room.

A rich medicinal fragrance wafted out of the room, almost filling the entire courtyard.

Hua Shuangshuang and Cen Yi were sitting opposite each other in the courtyard.

Sensing this commotion, Hua Shuangshuang looked over strangely. “Big Brother, what’s wrong with Xiao Ba? Why has she been cultivating so diligently these past few days?”

Ever since Master left, she had carried countless herbs and rushed into the room. She hadn’t come out until now.

With Xiao Ba’s personality, this was really a rare occurrence.

Cen Yi’s expression was calm; he didn’t even look up. “Master has already broken through to become a Supreme Physician, but she’s still a Senior Physician. It won’t sound good if word gets out.”

Xiao Ba seemed to be a lively person usually, but she was still clear-headed when it came to important matters. Now that she was about to be left far behind, she naturally worked hard.

Hua Shuangshuang immediately understood. “No wonder.”

Suddenly, the roar of fiends came from afar.

Hua Shuangshuang looked up and saw a Black Bone Golden-Winged Beast flying over.

It looked like an eagle or a vulture. Its entire body was black, but its wings were dark gold. Under the light, they flickered with a faint light.

Hua Shuangshuang took a closer look and saw a tear on its wing. Blood was flowing out, and even its white bones could be seen.

Its eyes were filled with deep panic. Behind it, a half-broken condor was rapidly approaching!
