The crooked word says: "
Be benevolent and do not do evil, and wealth should not be revealed in vain. There is no praise or criticism in the discussion, no emotion in the matter. The words come to your lips and you swallow them three times, and you communicate with people both good and bad. Don't be afraid of distinguishing between right and wrong, just ask whether you should behave in the world. "
In the ancient cave of Hanshan Mountain, a group of monsters met to wish the Demon King a thousand years of life. Ye Ling watched as the Demon King waited for the Ten Thousand Gold Asparagus Grass day and night, but had no chance to seize it.
Ye Ling secretly sighed: "If Ming Xueyu and Yue Zhufeng were here, I'm afraid they would have had a way to steal the medicine. It's a pity that I didn't learn from them. It's really only when I use my skills that I show my incompetence!"
Dan sat next to Ye Ling and thought to herself, but she couldn't think of a way to steal herbs among the monsters.
There is no way out of the sky. While the demons were celebrating, there was a sudden commotion outside the cave. A little demon rushed to report: "Your Majesty, it's not good, the blue sky is calling!"
Immediately afterwards there was a message from outside the cave: "Huanlong, today is your birthday, and I'm here to give you a gift!"
When Demon King Huanlong heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "Everyone, there are distinguished guests coming to our door. I will personally greet them. You can disperse later!"
When the demons saw it, they left one after another. But it turns out that this cave is the place where the demon king cleanses himself, and no one else is allowed to come in and out at will. Guests are only entertained here on his birthday.
At this time, Huanlong was going to meet the enemy, so the demons naturally had to leave quickly. Ye Ling pulled Dan to tell her not to act rashly, and followed the monsters out of the cave.
When they arrived outside the cave, they saw a green-haired boy standing in the air. He was wearing white clothes, with a smile on his face, and a very strange gap on his forehead.
Not long after, Huanlong came out of the cave. With a wave of his hand behind him, the cave suddenly closed with stones, cutting off the path.
He stepped up into the sky, came to the young man, and sneered: "Bikong, you and I have been fighting for thousands of years, and we have never been able to win or lose. But I have never made trouble for you on your birthday, have I?"
Bi Kong said: "Huanlong, I have been in prison for five hundred years, and I have gained some insights recently. I came here to compete with you. If I can beat you, I will go to the mainland to try my luck!"
"Okay, I haven't seen you for five hundred years, let's see how you have improved!"
But seeing that both of them were in the Celestial Realm, their Tao power was high in the sky, and their Tao rhyme spread across the sky. Between the collisions, time and space collapsed, and the earth cracked. Fortunately, the two of them were not fighting nearby, so the little demons with low cultivation levels were defeated. Survived.
Some demon commanders and demon generals all followed to watch for this rare battle. The other little demons paid their birthday gifts and then dispersed.
Dan said: "What should we do now? The mountain road has been sealed by the demon king himself, and there is no way for the two of us to open it."
Ye Ling said: "Don't you think it's a little strange? From what he said, Bi Kong and Huanlong are powerful enemies. So is it necessary for Bi Kong to fight today?"
"What do you mean?"
Ye Ling smiled and said: "The ten thousand-year elixir is something you can only come across but cannot ask for. Huanlong is counting on him to increase his cultivation and help him break the mirror. Does Bi Kong want it too?"
"You mean, Bi Kong did it on purpose?"
Ye Ling nodded and said, "Maybe today, this Ten Thousand Gold Asparagus Grass will change hands!"
While talking, the two of them came to the mountain walls on both sides of the valley, hid themselves among the grass and trees, and looked at the door of the cave.
Not long after, the stone wall reopened, and a young-looking demon cultivator walked out. The demons next to him called him senior brother.
The man ordered the demons to guard the cave, and he got up and went out.
Ye Ling said: "Follow him."
"Why?"
"This demon's cultivation is in the Yingchong realm. Judging from the respectful statues of the little demons, he must have an extraordinary status. If he is not guarding the cave at this time, and he is not going in the direction where Huanlong left, there must be something hidden!"
Only then did Dan understand, and he and Ye Ling immediately restrained their movements and followed the demon cultivator.
The demon cultivator left the valley and walked a long way before stopping under a cliff. Not long after, a man flew down from the cliff. He was short and fat, with a pimpled face. He asked, "Where are the things?"
The demon cultivator took out a medicinal herb from his arms. Isn't it the Ten Thousand Gold Dragon's Beard Grass?
When the short fat man saw it, he smiled and said: "Very good, my king will never forget your contribution."
After saying that, the short fat man stretched out his hand to pick it up. Unexpectedly, the demon cultivator put away the elixir and said, "I will give it to the king myself without having to take care of you."
"what do you mean?"
"Now that I have taken this ten thousand-year-old elixir, if Huanlong tracks it down, I am afraid that there will be no way for me to survive. I have no choice but to seek refuge with the king now in order to save my life. Therefore, I have to hand over this elixir to the king in person. !」
"I see, then I'll listen to you."
As he spoke, two glasses of water and wine appeared in the short fat man's hands: "Although the timing is not right, I celebrate your success!"
"Thank you!"
The demon cultivator took the cup and drank it in one gulp. Then the two of them were about to leave, but before they could take a few steps, the demon cultivator suddenly fell to the ground: "You poisoned me!"
The short fat man said: "Before you die, I will make it clear to you that it is not me who wants to harm you, but the king who wants to kill you."
"This is impossible. I got the fairy grass for the king, and I have done a great service. Why does the king want to harm me?"
"Huan Long is your master, but you didn't hesitate to betray him. How could the king accept a ruthless and unjust person like you? My poison attacks quickly, so go on your way with peace of mind!"
As he spoke, the demon cultivator trembled all over on the ground, and soon died of poison.
The short fat man took out the Ten Thousand Gold Asparagus and put it away, and then black energy emitted from his palm, covering the demon cultivator. Soon the body was completely dissolved in the black energy, leaving no trace.
But just as the short fat man was about to leave, a sharp edge suddenly touched the back of his neck, followed by Dan's hands that spread out Dao Yun and turned into vines, binding the short fat man so that he could not move.
Ye Ling immediately took out the Ten Thousand Gold Asparagus Grass from behind the short fat man and put it away. The short fat man asked in shock: "Who are you? Do you know that I am a disciple of the Blue Sky Demon King? If you dare to do this, aren't you afraid of death?"
Dan smiled and said: "Afraid of death? What I'm afraid of is that you won't be able to see whether we will die or not."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Ling's cold light appeared, and the short fat man was chopped into two pieces. Before he died, the short fat man said: "You are about to die!"
Ye Ling frowned: "It's a pity that there is no corpse poison, otherwise we would destroy the corpse and eliminate the traces!"
"Have you forgotten that our Cangwu tribe is best at preparing herbal medicines? Not only are we good at curing diseases and saving lives, we are also very good at poisons!"
Dan smiled and took out a stone bottle, poured a little liquid on the short fat man, and then black smoke rose and the body disappeared.
Ye Ling said: "This is the best. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. We need to leave as soon as possible."
"Yeah! Go back to the tribe and let Elder Yao heal your broken arm, and then the two of us will get married!"
"..."
However, it was said that Ye Ling and Dan took the fairy grass and immediately set off on their way back. Unexpectedly, half a day later, while the two were flying in the air, a sudden burst of Tao power struck them.
Ye Ling realized that something was wrong and hurriedly pushed the pill away. He unsheathed the wooden sword with his backhand and slashed it with the edge, but was knocked back by the force.
The next moment, Bi Kong's figure appeared behind Dan, but a green light flashed past. Dan suddenly fell into coma and was captured by Bi Kong.
"You are not monsters, but barbarians!"
Ye Ling looked at the blue sky and sneered: "What kind of monster are you? Why do you want to intercept us?"
"The human race is cunning and is still unwilling to tell the truth. You killed my disciple and took away my fairy grass. I followed the poisonous smell left by my disciple all the way. Do you still want to quibble?"
Ye Ling remembered that the short fat man said before he died that the two of them could not escape, but it turned out that he had sent the letter to Bi Kong and left a mark on Ye Ling and the two of them.
"The closest to the Hidden Dragon Mountains is the Houzhao tribe of barbarians. You must be the barbarians from that tribe! She has been poisoned by me now. If there is no antidote within half an hour, she will definitely die!"
Ye Ling smiled when he heard this: "It's really weird for the dignified Demon King to negotiate terms with me. You must be worried about the Ring Dragon Demon King behind me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huanlong's figure appeared in the clouds and stood behind Ye Ling: "I thought I was disguised well enough, but I didn't want you to see through it."
Ye Ling said: "Both demon kings are here, who of you should I give this fairy grass to?"
Huanlong said: "Looking at the fact that you two came to celebrate my birthday, as long as you return the fairy grass, I can forget about it."
Bi Kong sneered: "You don't have to be afraid of him, he can't do anything to me. As long as you give me the fairy grass, I can not only save your woman, but also ensure that you two don't die!"
Ye Ling is certainly not stupid. The only bargaining chip he has now is the fairy grass. As long as he hands over the fairy grass, he will be killed immediately.
So, he was not in a hurry and said: "Blue Sky Demon King, you should detoxify her first. Anyway, if the fight breaks out all at once, you won't have time to take action."
"Boy, don't play tricks."
"Why should I play tricks with you? Even if the poison is detoxified, we can escape?"
Bi Kong hesitated, and Ye Ling said again: "If you want me to believe you, you have to show some sincerity, right?"
Bi Kong had no choice but to reach out and remove the poison from Dan. Then Dan woke up and Bi Kong said, "Now, you should believe me, right?"
Ye Ling turned around and asked Huanlong: "If I give you that fairy grass now, my woman will be killed by the Blue Sky Demon King. What do you think should be done?"
Huanlong heard the words and stared at Ye Ling for a long time. Suddenly, his body's power burst out and he struck a palm towards Bi Kong. This palm directly shattered the void. Bi Kong couldn't help but turn his hands into fists to catch it.
Taking this opportunity, Dan hurriedly escaped to Ye Ling's side.
Bi Kong was furious: "Huanlong, can't you see that this kid is playing tricks on us?"
Huanlong said: "He can't escape from your hands. Are you still afraid that he will run away?"
"Of course I won't run away, but you have to let my woman go!"
As he spoke, Ye Ling took out the Ten Thousand Gold Asparagus Grass from the jade finger and held it in his hand: "Otherwise, I will destroy it immediately and we will perish together!"
"Boy, don't you dare..."
Before he finished speaking, a leaf of Ten Thousand Gold Asparagus in Ye Ling's hand suddenly burned, shocking Bi Kong and Huanlong's expressions.
"Don't be impulsive. If you have anything to say, we can discuss it."
"Our promise is that your woman can leave!"
"leaf……"
Dan's face was full of worry, and Ye Ling said: "Go back quickly, go to the Houzhao tribe first and tell Ning, let him lead the people of the Houzhao tribe to join the Cangwu tribe and the Fuyu tribe."
"But you..."
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, wait until I get back!"
Dan nodded heavily and left immediately. She knew that staying here would not help, so she had no choice but to follow Ye Ling's arrangement.
In mid-air, the Celestial Realm was enveloped, and Ye Ling could not escape at all. He watched Dan leave and breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of a way to escape. He called out Qingqing with some resignation and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to escape this time. I can't send you back." You Qingpeng tribe, go, Qingqing, leave now!"
