Chapter 1475: Chapter 466: The Cunning Red Gold Demon Tiger, Unexpected Encounter and Startling News (Part 2)
The Red Gold Demon Tiger used flames to open itself, not only Chu Tianxu realized that the other had already noticed his presence, but also instantly understood why it was running toward him.
It was already in a seriously injured state, running elsewhere would eventually lead to being caught by the person behind, inevitable death; but running towards him, it seemed as if two people surrounded it, but in fact, it was randomly drawing someone into the fray to break the one-on-one situation and gain a slim chance of survival.
Placing itself in a deadly situation to then survive, this demon tiger actually had such a way to break the predicament!
As Chu Tianxu reacted, he naturally immediately thought of a countermeasure, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to reveal his identity, while exposing the tiger’s intention and inviting it to join forces.
Phew......
Unfortunately, that black silhouette stopped behind the demon tiger, neither responding nor making any subsequent movements.
Therefore, two men and one tiger were stuck in a stalemate in mid-air.
Seeing this scene, Chu Tianxu’s face instantly turned extremely grim.
He had been inexplicably calculated by the demon tiger, not only failing to hunt the tiger, but also being resented by the other.
"Humph!"
Most annoyingly, the demon tiger knew it had successfully broken the deadlock, and actually first breathed toward Chu Tianxu, its face full of mockery, seemingly sarcastically expressing gratitude to him.
"Roar......"
Then it turned to look at the black silhouette behind it, with only its remaining right tiger eye, filled with mixed fear and hatred, roaring as if leaving a harsh word, then suddenly turning around, flying quickly toward the west.
"Ah, little brother, you......"
Watching the Red Gold Demon Tiger fly away in front of him, Chu Tianxu’s face was full of regret, looking at the dark young man in front of him, his tone carried a hint of reproach.
This one was burned by Fire Tribulation Qi, with only a layer of beast skin skirt draped over him, and dozens of wounds all over his body, almost having the Five Elements Tribulation Qi all over him, this person must have offended all the Emperor-level Cold Beasts surrounding the Blood Miasma Plain.
Seeing the young man not speaking, Chu Tianxu immediately scrutinized him, noticing the origin of his injuries, becoming astonished, just about to continue questioning whether he was Li Wuji, but the other side spoke first.
"May I trouble Governor Chu to tell me what day it is today, and where is the north?"
Hearing the young man’s tone being quite impolite, Chu Tianxu frowned slightly, but quickly realized that the other was blaming him for interfering with his hunt for the Red Gold Demon Tiger, thinking that he indeed was inadvertently utilized by the tiger, he pressed down his inner discomfort, replied in a deep voice: "Today should be the eighth of July, the north is there..."
When Chu Tianxu stated the date and pointed out the general direction, seeing the young man’s astonishment, his mind immediately raced, continuing: "Brother Li, could you be from another place..."
Phew......
He hadn’t finished speaking, yet the young man directly flew northward.
"Wei Bo’s disciple, so lacking in manners, humph!"
Chu Tianxu stood in place in confusion for a long time, even with his good temperament, a hint of anger formed on his face at this moment, watching the young man fly away, couldn’t help but let out a cold snort.
"County Father, he should not be Li Wuji!"
However, soon, the five people who had just dispersed to flee quickly returned, Chu Xuanfeng who ran the closest, had obviously seen the young man just now, hearing his father Chu Tianxu’s cold snort, immediately ran up to speak.
Chu Tianxu was stunned, then thought that his son had been to Wei Bo before, and indeed had met Li Wuji, his brows suddenly furrowed and asked: "Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
Chu Xuanfeng answered confidently, then thought for a bit, suddenly remembered something, raised his head and exclaimed: "I remembered, Star River Sword Qi, two years ago a Daqin princely heir, ranked 46 on the Heavenly List, his sword was called the Shattered Star Sword, Star River Sword Qi, this is the unique phenomenon when this Hong Yu moves."
Heavenly List, rank 46.
How is that possible?
Chu Tianxu shook his head at first, but soon thought of something, a trace of shock in his eyes and said: "Matched up, two years ago when the deceitful monsters retaliated, Cai Qiu, Fan Qinghu and 51 others were trapped by deceitful monsters in the Blood Miasma Plain, and among them was this Hong Yu, later Cai Qiuyang rescued Fan Qinghu and others, at the time everyone thought this Hong Yu had died in the Blood Miasma Plain with the others..."
It really matches!
This person not only survived, but his strength has grown so strong?
Rank 46 on the Heavenly List, a Daqin princely heir...
Regarding Hong Yu’s matter, Chu Tianxu had heard, though he didn’t particularly care about those outside the top ten of the Heavenly List, but can’t avoid descendants and those in the county mansion caring, so regarding this Daqin princely heir, he had some impression.
"Didn’t die at the hands of deceitful monsters, and could chase after Double Five Luminaries Realm Cold Beast to hunt, this Hong Prince’s so-called Daqin background may indeed be true..."
Chu Tianxu’s pupils slightly narrowed, thinking of the direction the other side just went northward, his expression slightly shifted, said to Chu Xuanfeng and five people: "Let’s go, hurry back!"
............
"I stayed inside for almost two years, how is that possible?"
South of Chen Cang Yanling County, north corner of Qingwu Village, inside an ordinary wooden house, upon hearing the elderly man surnamed Zhang telling him that today was July 8th, year 299 of Caiqiu Calendar, Xia Hong was immediately stunned.
"Master, you should soak in the tub first! The old one just happens to have two granddaughters, I’ll let them come in to attend to you."
Zhang Qinggu noticing Xia Hong’s astonishment, seemingly having no other thoughts, his eyes rolled, after speaking, seeing Xia Hong didn’t respond, he quickly turned to the outside of the door and beckoned.
"Zhu’er, Hong’er, come in quickly to attend to the lord!"
Outside, two young girls walked in quickly, both only with Earth-digging Realm Cultivation, wearing ordinary linen gray clothing, naturally not very outstanding, yet in their youth, coupled with not having done rough work evidently, their skin appeared quite fair.
The two girls seeing Xia Hong in the tub unclothed, were clearly a bit shy, but recalling their grandfather’s instructions, still mustered courage to step forward, picked up the cloth and began to scrub Xia Hong.
"You..."
Though Xia Hong’s mind was in an extremely shocked state at this moment, what happened inside the house couldn’t escape him, seeing the two girls rushing forward, he initially intended to stop them, yet recalling Zhang Qinggu led him into the village the whole way, prepared clothes, brought hot water, all without revealing his news to anyone, he sighed slightly, simply closed his mouth and let the two girls bathe him.
Given Zhang Qinggu saw him fly down from the sky firsthand, developing an attachment was not surprising, after all, it’s just a small person’s survival strategy, since he had the ability, offering a hand was nothing major.
The girl’s scrubbing motion was very gentle, relieving the tension Xia Hong had internalized over two months, his eyes slightly squinted, lying in the tub, slowly contemplating.
"Caiqiu Calendar year 297, November 2nd night I entered the plain, I estimated two months inside, but now it’s July 8th, year 299, actually 20 months have passed, so the time flow in the Blood Miasma Plain is indeed ten times faster than outside!"
In the cave a day equals a thousand years outside.
The Blood Miasma Plain was not quite as exaggerated, yet the saying truly materialized at this moment, striking a massive shock in Xia Hong’s heart.
"Right! That makes sense, no wonder my cultivation speed became so fast, if inside a day equals ten days outside, it completely makes sense, I was merely influenced by the miasma, unable to feel it!"
Upon accepting the fact that the Blood Miasma Plain and external world had different time flows, many previous perplexities in Xia Hong’s mind instantly found answers.
Yet not only did the confusion resolve, Xia Hong suddenly recalled something, his heart instantly flared with excitement.
"If Great Xia could utilize this..."
No, no, Cai Qiu and Chen Cang already knew about the Blood Miasma Plain, would they not utilize it?
Xia Hong’s mind immediately conjured countless thoughts, then forcefully suppressed his inner excitement, calmly said: "No rush, no rush, these matters must wait until I return to Xia City to discuss, the current priority is to inventory the past two months, no, the past twenty months, of gains in the Blood Miasma Plain..."
Speaking to this, Xia Hong slightly opened his eyes, turned his head towards the Yellow Mustard Bag on the ground, his pupils filled with fervor.
