Chapter 6157: Exposed!
Before Wu Li could finish speaking, the Lord of Zhalong Mountain snorted coldly, “A s.p.a.cetime token?”
Such a treasure, he barely had a few, and none were given to his descendants.
How could he believe this?
Wu Li also knew his explanation sounded far-fetched.
It sounded more like a perfunctory lie.
But that was the truth.
Two seemingly unremarkable demiG.o.d powerhouses had both taken out s.p.a.cetime tokens, and after failing to defeat them, had fled.
“It’s absolutely true, with our level of power, how could we dare deceive the Lord!”
After finis.h.i.+ng his words, Wu Li bowed deeply.
Jian Wushuang and the others held their breaths, waiting for the Lord of Zhalong Mountain to speak, whether it would be battle or peace depended on his next words.
However, judging by the other party’s demeanor, it seemed unlikely they would leave safely today.
Such a flimsy excuse, even a three-year-old wouldn’t believe it.
Let alone the Lord of Zhalong Mountain.
The atmosphere gradually cooled, and a murderous intent began to show in the eyes of the Lord of Zhalong Mountain.
His gaze then s.h.i.+fted towards Jian Wushuang.
“Fine, I will temporarily believe your words!”
With these words, not only did Jian Wushuang not feel relieved, but his heart grew even heavier, because he could see the killing intent in the other party’s eyes.
He just didn’t know what tactics the person before him would use against them.
Or what his intentions were?
With such powerful divine power, if it were him, he would definitely not waste words and would directly slaughter them.
He wanted to see what tricks the other party had up their sleeve.
Upon hearing the other party’s seemingly agreeable words, Wu Li’s face brightened, and he stood up, suppressing his joy, then spoke sorrowfully, “The fall of Brother Hong Long saddens me as well. Until his death, he kept murmuring about finding that treasure; otherwise, we would have reported the news of his death long ago!”
This also explained why they hadn’t immediately reported the incident.
But the Lord of Zhalong Mountain showed no interest in this explanation.
The fall of Hong Long, to a powerhouse of his level, wasn’t even a significant blow.
His previous intention to pa.s.s on his position was because he had reached a bottleneck.
He had reached the perfection stage within the Tribulation.
The next step was to prepare for the divine tribulation.
Therefore, he had paid a little attention to his descendants.
Many of his descendants had already fallen.
He had only treated Hong Long differently this time because he hoped Hong Long could protect his Zhalong Mountain.
The fall had happened, and so be it.
As long as he could become a Universe Master, he could cultivate even stronger descendants.
Why would he ruin his grand plan over such a small matter?
Jian Wushuang saw this clearly, which is why he remained vigilant.
Not avenging his son, yet seeking them out, there must be another reason.
“I can let go of Hong Long’s matter, but among you, whoever used the Beast G.o.d Power must stay, the rest I can let live!”
Beast G.o.d Power!
Upon hearing this, Wu Li and the others were stunned.
Previously, only Jian Wushuang had used the Beast G.o.d Power once, to absorb the blood pool.
It turned out to be about that matter.
They were still not out of trouble.
Seeing this, Wu Li quickly put on a fawning smile, taking out the blood pool, and said, “Senior, you must be mistaken. We are all human, how could we have Beast G.o.d Power? The Beast G.o.d Power you saw came from this blood pool, which is the treasure Brother Hong Long was looking for. Now that you are here, I hand it over to you, to honor Brother Hong Long’s spirit in heaven!”
Smack!
As soon as Wu Li offered the treasure, it was slapped away by the Lord of Zhalong Mountain.
A treasure containing Beast G.o.d Power meant nothing to him.
That bit of power wasn’t worth a glance.
If one could control Beast G.o.d Power, like Hong Long’s son, it could increase basic divine power by tens of millions.
But to the Lord of Zhalong Mountain, who had reached demiG.o.d perfection, even an increase of ten thousand was difficult.
How could he care about such a treasure?
Seeing this, Wu Li knew he couldn’t deceive him and stepped back half a step, saying nothing
more.
The others did the same.
Clearly, they were ready to fight desperately.
The Lord of Zhalong Mountain was a bit surprised, not expecting these people to be so united, with no one seeking to save themselves.
Although he had not thought about letting anyone go, wouldn’t one typically cherish even a sliver of hope?
“It seems you aren’t planning to talk!” The divine power of the Lord of Zhalong Mountain surged, instantly surpa.s.sing 60 million.
And it was just his basic divine power.
There was no need to use any secret arts.
His basic divine power had already reached 65.5 million.
With a slight use of secret arts, it could break 70 million.
Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but swallow hard.
The pressure was immense.
However, Hu Qing and the others were not the least bit fl.u.s.tered.
Hu Qing aside, he might still have a trump card.
But Wu Li remained calm and composed.
This made Jian Wushuang suspect that Wu Li might also have a hidden card.
Wu Zuo was indifferent because he had absolute faith in himself and Hu Qing.
Divine Wood King was somewhat tense but not panicked.
He had seen such scenes many times.
Back when they faced Chi Jiuxiao, it was far more thrilling than this.
Just as everyone was preparing to face the threat head-on, Jian Wushuang spoke up.
“Wait!”
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Zhalong Mountain turned to look at Jian Wushuang.
He already knew the problem lay with Jian Wushuang, and his earlier words were meant to
make Jian Wushuang speak voluntarily.
Possessing the power of the Beast G.o.d, and in such a pure form, he didn’t believe Jian Wushuang was a human. He was likely a super Beast G.o.d of the demon race.
If he captured him and extracted his complete Origin Source to transform himself, the value
would be infinite.
This was why the various demon clans treated those super Beast G.o.ds like treasures.
Beast G.o.ds were graded, and the most heaven-defying Beast G.o.ds, once they became
Universe Masters, were nearly invincible.
They would inevitably be carefully protected and slowly nurtured.
He highly suspected Jian Wushuang was a super Beast G.o.d in disguise as a human.
So, he cautiously probed.
“Senior!” Jian Wushuang, unaware of his thoughts, proactively took out a Beast G.o.d Weapon
and said, “This treasure, I obtained by chance. Using it, I can wield the power of the Beast
G.o.d!”
The treasure he brought out was the Beast G.o.d Weapon “Eye of the Candle Dragon,” which he
had obtained earlier!
The Candle Dragon belonged to the dragon race.
Moreover, it was a top-tier Beast G.o.d among the dragon race.
When the Lord of Zhalong Mountain saw that eye, he couldn’t help but feel moved, and his
expression changed.
“You actually have such a treasure!” He could hardly believe it. Jian Wushuang had casually
taken out the super treasure he had dreamed of for so long.
He also had one such treasure, but he knew it was incomplete.
And that treasure was the Beast G.o.d Weapon Jian Wushuang had been searching for.
The last of the nine Beast G.o.d Weapons!
“The Demon Dragon’s Blade!”
He knew the last Beast G.o.d Weapon was in Zhalong Mountain.
But he hadn’t expected it to be in the hands of the Lord of Zhalong Mountain, who cherished it
like a precious gem.
