Somewhere in the desert northwest of the Tianlong Empire.
The wind is howling, sand and rocks are flying, and there are few people around.
"call out!"
An old man in gray robe flew over.
After confirming that no one was following the gray-robed old man, he escaped and disappeared. Soon he reached a thousand meters deep underground, where there was a huge grotto.
There is a large pool in the grotto.
There is a stone statue in the center of the pool. The stone statue looks very evil.
The old man in gray robe knelt on the ground: "I pay my respects to you, Your Majesty."
The stone statue did not respond, but the look of respect on the face of the old man in gray robe was not missing at all. He kowtowed seriously before standing up.
"Wow!"
A gourd appeared in the hand of the old man in gray robe.
The red liquid in the gourd quickly gushes out, and the gushing liquid reaches the pool, and the bloody smell suddenly overflows.
This red liquid is clearly blood.
Time passed by second by second, and the entire pool was filled with blood. The total blood released was estimated to be two to three thousand cubic meters.
If this was human blood, assuming four to five liters of blood per adult, almost half a million people would need to be killed to collect this blood.
"Gulu gulu."
There was a strange sound, as if something was eating, and the blood in the blood pool began to decrease. A quarter of an hour later, the two to three thousand cubic meters of blood in the blood pool completely disappeared.
The somewhat evil stone statue suddenly turned blood red.
The entire stone statue looked even more sinister.
"Buzz!"
Spatial fluctuations occur.
It seemed that something had entered the stone statue.
The stone statue's head suddenly moved, and it looked at the old man in gray robe.
"This servant pays homage to Your Majesty."
The old man in gray robe knelt down again and said with excitement.
"The time has not come yet, why did you summon me to come?"
The stone statue was uttering human words, and it seemed a little unhappy.
The old man in gray robe said quickly: "Your Majesty, a top demigod has appeared in the Holy Word Continent, and the Tianlong Empire will have a new emperor. I have to contact your Majesty."
"How could a top demigod appear now?"
The stone statue's doubtful voice sounded.
The old man in gray robe said quickly: "Your Majesty, I dare not deceive you. The name of the top demigod who has emerged is Nuwa."
"She supports the prince's attendance at Xiao Fan. With her support, Xiao Fan is already the Marquis of Wenchang. He even has a demigod-level sword slave——"
The old man in gray robe quickly said something.
"Your Majesty, the Tianlong Empire will soon have a new emperor. The possibility of King Xiaoyao seizing the throne is reduced. I even suspect that King Xiaoyao Qin Xiao is now secretly controlled by Nuwa."
"Please show me what I should do, my slave."
The old man in gray robe said.
There is an altar left over from the ancient times. He contacted the demon god of the upper world through sacrifice, and the demon god could give him strength.
After gaining power, his strength greatly increased within a certain period of time.
When the time is up, he will be knocked back to his original form.
He was the one who contacted King Xiaoyao before and secretly tried to make King Xiaoyao seize the throne.
"Did Nuwa ever really show up and take action?"
the stone statue asked.
The old man in gray robe shook his head: "It seems that he has not taken action publicly, but Xiao Fan's sword slave has taken action publicly."
The stone statue said: "Nu Wa may be the awakened true god. According to the rules of the Holy Word Continent, she does not dare to take action now."
"Have you checked her relationship with Xiao Fan?"
The old man in gray robe nodded: "After checking, Xiao Fan's parents' graves were dug two months ago, and there was no corpse gas in the coffins."
"Xiao Fan's parents may still be alive."
"I have a guess. Is it possible that Nuwa is Xiao Fan's mother? This can explain a lot of things."
"For example, why Nuwa gave him so much support, and why Xiao Fan has a strong physique but has difficulty awakening."
The stone statue muttered: "Your analysis makes sense. No matter what the situation is, Nuwa must die. You kill Xiao Fan."
"Use the rules of heaven to kill Nuwa."
Speaking of this, blood light shot out from the stone statue's eyes, and the blood light fell on the gray-robed old man, and his strength soared rapidly.
He himself only had the initial cultivation level of Emperor Martial. It didn't take long for his cultivation to reach Emperor Martial Perfection, and his cultivation continued to improve. A quarter of an hour later, he reached the early stage of Demigod.
The old man in gray robe showed excitement in his eyes.
Once he gained strength before, his cultivation level would only reach Martial Emperor Perfection at most.
"This time I can actually make your cultivation reach the early stage of demigod. It seems that the rules of heaven and earth have loosened a lot. Don't let me down."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The old man in gray robe said respectfully.
"Do good things for me, and you will definitely be able to ascend in the future."
After the stone statue finished speaking, its eyes became dull.
The blood-colored stone statue also turned gray at this time.
"Early stage of demigod, it's so cool, hahahaha!"
The old man in gray robe laughed wildly. It would be much easier to act with the early stage of demigod cultivation, but such cultivation could not be maintained for a long time.
"call out!"
The old man in gray robe left quickly.
He went south to Xiliang City.
According to his judgment, it was extremely likely that Qin Xuan was a woman, and it was probably Xiao Fan who slept with Nangong Suxin and Jiang Yuli.
He wants to go to Xiliang City to catch Nangong Jin.
With his current strength, it is not difficult to win Nangong Jin.
"Already headed to Shengjing City?"
The old man in gray robe arrived at Xiliang City in more than half an hour, but after asking around, he found that Nangong Jin was no longer in Xiliang City.
Qin Xuan is about to ascend the throne, and Nangong Jin goes to Shengjing City to pay homage.
"Kill some people and lure Nangong Jin back to Xiliang City?"
The old man in gray robe was thinking.
After thinking about it for a while, he felt it was inappropriate.
Nangong Jin is likely to come back, but maybe Xiao Fan asks Zhuang Yan to follow him. His current strength is not as good as Zhuang Yan.
The people who killed the Tiger and Ben troops might also have alerted the enemy.
"Nu Wa must be near Xiao Fan's residence, and the rest of Shengjing City is safe."
The gray-robed old man thought to himself.
For a demigod who is at the perfection level, his divine consciousness can cover the entire Shengjing City, but the farther the distance, the weaker the scanning ability of his divine consciousness.
With his current demigod-level cultivation, it is difficult to detect his restrained aura.
"call out!"
The old man in gray robe flew towards Shengjing City.
After approaching Shengjing City, he found a horse and rode into Shengjing City. Qin Xuan would soon ascend the throne. Shengjing City was now crowded with people, and he was inconspicuous among the crowd.
"Who to arrest?"
The old man in gray robe was thinking in his mind.
He has several candidates.
Jiang Yuli's parents, Nangong Jin, Murong Die and Murong Wu. If Jiang Yuli, Nangong Suxin, and even Qin Xuan can be caught, of course it would be best.
Jiang Qian, Qin Yuan, and the old man in gray robe also considered it.
It's just that they have the perfect level of cultivation of Emperor Wu, so he has to use all his strength to capture them, which can easily alarm Nuwa.
"Athena has come to our Shengjing City again."
"Empress Nuwa is so powerful, I wonder if we can let Marquis Wenchang break through earlier."
The old man in gray robe heard someone talking.
His eyes lit up.
Catching Athena is also good.
Athena is the princess of the Shenguang Empire and the apple of the eye of the Emperor of the Shenguang Empire. If something happens to her here, it will cause a big disturbance.
The Tianlong Empire must try its best to save Athena.
"Athena is a good bargaining chip. It can also cause disputes between the Tianlong Empire and the Shenguang Empire. Catch her first!"
The gray-robed old man thought to himself.
Half an hour later, the old man in gray robe approached the mansion where Athena was, and he easily sneaked into the mansion.
"receive!"
Athena was there, and the old man in gray robe instantly caught her.
Athena was in the late stage of the Martial King's cultivation. This cultivation level was very good, but she was useless in front of a strong person at the demigod level.
