Chapter 570 – Come In
After An Zheng smacked his palm down, Qu Liuxi and the others immediately cried out in alarm. That was the Xiao Qi Dao they had always cherished and protected. With An Zheng’s palm, it was enough to split apart a mountain, let alonerson’s head.
However, after that palm attack, an obvious black shadow flew out from Xiao Qi Dao’s body. Before the black figure could stop, An Zheng threw the Xiao Qi Dao who was not far away towards Du Shoushou and pressed down on him with one hand. “Stop right there!”
The vast power of that palm strike was like a majestic mountain as it pressed down on the black shadow. The black figure had already materialized intuman form, and was being suppressed and played with by An Zheng’s palm as if it was a paper man.
“Let me see what kind of evil and evil you are!”
An Zheng descended from the air and stepped on the paper man like black shadow on the back of his head. With a bang, the black shadow’s head heavily hit the ground. However, that thing was unexpectedly extremely tenacious, its heavy blow did not dissipate, and it was still struggling on the ground after being stepped on by An Zheng.
An Zheng waved his Broken Army Sword and it appeared. He threw it up and caught it with his hand. The black shadow was nailed to the ground, unable to struggle out even if it wanted to.
An Zheng noticed that the thing was twisted by the pain and had gradually lost its human form. It looked even more like a big loach. But that was only a shadow, not something solid. An Zheng twisted the sword hilt: “You still dare to resist?!”
The black shadow lifted its head and let out a shrill howl, which was as horrifying as a viper spitting out its tongue. The sound wasn’t loud, but it was mournful, as if it had directly entered a person’s mind, and it caused their scalp to explode in waves.
The thing raised its head and looked at An Zheng viciously.
“Still not convinced.”
An Zheng raised his foot and stepped down, with a bang, he pierced deep into the Broken Army Sword s. The sound of the sword slicing through the back of the thing was extremely unpleasant to hear, like the sound of two metal blades scraping against each other.
The creature was finally unable to endure any longer and once again transformed into its human form. Its two hands reached forward and smacked the ground, as if it was begging for forgiveness.
Xiao Qi Dao had already fainted when An Zheng turned around to take a look. Du Shoushou was currently carrying him while looking in An Zheng’s direction. An Zheng squatted in front of that thing and carefully sized it up... The black figure gradually became clearer, and finally turned into the appearance of a youth, looking exactly the same as the Xiao Qi Dao.
“How dare you be so impudent?”
The power of Orthodox Pure Yang appeared in An Zheng’s left hand, and he pressed his palm on the back of that thing’s head. The burning Cultivation Power imprinted itself onto the back of the thing’s head, immediately causing it to burn and release green smoke. The thing cried out in pain as its body and appearance constantly changed. In the end, it turned into something like a baby fish.
“Crocodile?”
Qi Tian, who was standing behind his, was stunned for a moment, and said uncertainly.
An Zheng turned his head around, “What are horned fish?”
Qi Tian said: “I am not too sure if this thing is one of them, I have never seen it before, but that monk had mentioned it before. He said that in this world, there was a demon beast called the horned fish. Normally, it lived in the crystal clear waters of a river. “The horned fish loves beautiful young men and women the most. If there ierson like him who washes his face by a river or is reflected by the river, then he will possess the body of young men and women.”
“No matter how clear the waters of the river are, I will not be able to see them … The monk said that he had read about it in the Book of the Mountain and Sea Scripture. The Mountain and Sea Scripture of the Grand Scholar was rumored to have been created when a high monk of the Buddhist Sect roamed the world, recording all that he had seen. Due to his profound cultivation base and his exquisite buddhist arts, he was honored aero. But there’s a saying... It was said that the horned fish was a kind of summoner, something that someone else had summoned. Just by attaching the horned fish onto a person’s body, you can monitor their every move. ”
An Zheng acknowledged: “Looks like something big happened in State of Yan. Someone wanted State of Yan to collapse, wanted Xiao Qi Dao to collapse.”
He briefly described what he saw when he first entered the city. Gu Qianye was so angry that he was about to rush out and settle scores with that woman called Yun Ni. An Zheng stopped her and said: “I feel that the woman called Yun Ni is just a chess piece placed next to the Xiao Qi Dao, there is an even more powerful opponent behind her. “For the time being, don’t touch her. I still have to find out who the person behind her is.”
Just as he was saying that, he heard Du Shoushou shouting: “What are you doing!”
An Zheng immediately turned his head, and saw that Xiao Qi Dao had woken up at some point, and suddenly struggled free from Du Shoushou’s embrace. After that, he moved to Du Shoushou’s back, and pulled ouadiant dagger from his hands to point at Du Shoushou’s throat. Du Shoushou never thought that the Xiao Qi Dao would attack him, and was stunned. The dagger cut open Du Shoushou’s skin, and blood flowed down his neck.
“Let me out, or I’ll kill him.”
It was not the voice of the Xiao Qi Dao, but rather, the voice of a thirty to forty year old man.
Just as Du Shoushou was about to move, the dagger sliced at Du Shoushou’s neck again.
An Zheng immediately shouted out: “Fatty, don’t move.”
He walked to a spot about two to three meters away from the Xiao Qi Dao and Du Shoushou, and stopped as he looked at the Xiao Qi Dao: “Who exactly are you?”
Xiao Qi Dao said with a ferocious expression: “Don’t care who I am, if you try to spoil my plans, I won’t let you go. If you let me leave this boundary, I won’t kill your friend. If you don’t let me go, we’ll all die together. In any case, the ones who died were your friends. ”
An Zheng raised both his hands and pressed them down, “There is nothing that cannot be discussed. You just want to leave, I can promise you that. Come out of my friend’s body and release my other friend. I’ll keep my word and let you out. ”
“Hahahaha!”
Xiao Qi Dao laughed out wildly. “Do you think I’m an idiot? An Zheng, I know who you are. You are the pillar of State of Yan, the little emperor of State of Yan treats you like his own brother. And the man I hold in my hand is also your brother. You told me to let them both go and you’re gonna let me go? What a joke. I originally wanted to spend a few days in this insignificant land, but you came back and made life difficult for me … Open this barrier, and there’s no need to discuss further! ”
An Zheng nodded: “Alright, let’s do as you say.”
As An Zheng walked forward, he thought about how to pull out the thing inside Xiao Qi Dao’s body. He never thought that there were actually two layers of things hidden inside Xiao Qi Dao’s body. The black shadow on the surface layer was the horned fish, already under control. However, there was still one more layer below that had a deeper control of the Xiao Qi Dao.
Just as An Zheng was unable to think of a solution, Xiao Qi Dao suddenly cried out and looked down. Just at this moment, An Zheng’s body suddenly moved forward, teleported over, grabbed Xiao Qi Dao’s arm and twisted, causing the dagger to drop onto the ground. Du Shoushou took the opportunity to rush forward and dodge. When he looked again, An Zheng had already controlled Xiao Qi Dao.
An Zheng did not know why Xiao Qi Dao suddenly cried out in pain. Lowering his head to look, he discovered that a small black ant had fallen out of Xiao Qi Dao’s pants and was crawling towards the side.
An Zheng suddenly realised that this little ant was the tenacious little ant among the Heaven Defying Seal that was crawling forward. When An Zheng and the others had just entered the Heaven Defying Seal s to cultivate, they had seen this little ant. Because the Heaven Defying Seal was practically still in the beginning, this little ant would need a very, very long time to climb over that small road. However, it clearly had never given up. It had been trying its best to move forward.
Back then, An Zheng had even said that one must be as tenacious and determined as this little ant.
Only, no one had expected that it would be the one who saved Du Shoushou.
Xiao Qi Dao looked down and realized that it was only an ant that had bitten into his bones. He wanted to stomp on it to death. An Zheng pressed the Xiao Qi Dao down, causing the Xiao Qi Dao to fall face-first onto the ground. With one hand, An Zheng caught and twisted Xiao Qi Dao’s hand while the other hand held onto the ant and gave it to Qu Liuxi: “These are Du Shoushou and Xiao Qi Dao’s benefactors.”
Qu Liuxi caught the little ant and exclaimed in surprise.
“So what if you hold onto me? You torture me, I beg you to torture me. Anyway, it’s not me who’s suffering, it’s you little brother. Even if you torture him to the point that he’s not even skin skinned, it has nothing to do with me. Come on, I beg you to torture me. ”
An Zheng frowned, he closed his right eye and the three blue star point in his left eye started to spin. The three star point represented three types of power in An Zheng’s left eye. One was the Eye of Nine Incarnations of the good old man, one was the power of the founder of the mountain, and the other was the power of the Heaven’s Eye of the Blood Pearl. The combination of these three types of powers allowed one to see through their interactions.
The so-called intercourse was the present and the future.
However, An Zheng still had not become familiar with the control of his eyes, and could only rely on himself to feel it.
However, An Zheng had never been an idiot, his understanding of strength had always been much faster and more thorough than others. The moment that An Zheng’s left eye condensed its power, he saw something extremely strange … A close connection.
“So that’s how it is.”
An Zheng stood up: “You guys keep an eye on Xiao Qi Dao, don’t let him out. Xiao Liu’er, use your Phoenix Cooking Pill Furnace to trap Xiao Qi Dao. ”
Qu Liuxi responded, and did as she was told, only to realize that An Zheng had already left the Heaven Defying Seal.
Fringe City.
An Zheng once again stepped into the Xiao Qi Dao’s palace. At the door, An Chengli and the gathered old officials were all waiting. When these old subjects looked at An Zheng, their eyes were filled with anticipation and trust, as they all rushed over. An Zheng nodded his head: “I know, you guys wait here for a while, I’ll be out in a while.”
Chen Zaiyan, the most important official of the nation, looked at An Zheng as he said somewhat excitedly, “But we still don’t know what happened.”
An Zheng laughed: Master Chen, I will tell you.
With a creak, he pushed open the gate and strode inside. When the young eunuchs and maids saw An Zheng, they were all shocked, turned around and ran away. It was as if the smell of An Zheng was their nemesis.
An Zheng walked straight to the backyard and stood at the entrance of Xiao Qi Dao’s sleeping courtyard. The door was ajar, and there was no sound from inside. An Zheng pushed open the door and walked in. He saw Yun Ni, the young girl who was combing her hair at the window. She turned to look at An Zheng, laughed, and stuck the comb into the hair on the back of her head. She pulled for a few times but was still unable to pull it off. Then, with a slight frown, she said to An Zheng with a sweet voice, “Prince Fu … Come in, come in and help me? ”
