Chapter 884 Confrontation of Power


But when Zhang Hao arrived, he was suddenly blown away by a violent energy. When he took a closer look, it turned out that the dragon energy in the dragon's eyes was preparing to leak out in the next wave.

This time, not only Zhang Hao noticed the seriousness of the situation, but Zhang Qilin and the old man in red also felt the danger coming.

Naturally, it was impossible for the two of them to risk their own safety for the sake of fighting at this moment. They could only put down their opponents and hide in safe places.

The dragon's aura raised up golden mist, swooped towards the gap at an extremely fast speed, and hit the three platforms again.

Since the platforms had lost the protection of the taming animals, one of the platforms had also shifted, which caused serious problems in the formation's guidance.

A burst of dragon energy knocked over the stone platform next to it and roared into the stone wall not far away.

"Boom!"

The violent impact and huge power caused a tremor at the foot of the mountain, and large pieces of gravel poured down from above.

After this wave of dragon energy passed, Zhang Qilin fought with the old man in red again, and the two fought inextricably.

Zhang Hao turned his attention to the Water Dragon King who was guarding the dragon eye.

The water dragon king's body was surrounded by light cyan light. Apparently, after Zhang Hao used the source of heaven and earth to treat him, his injuries had recovered and his strength had been better displayed.

Without the help of Zhang Hao's original power, it is still unknown whether the Water Dragon King could suppress Long Yan at this moment.

You know, the Water Dragon King absorbed the energy of heaven and earth at the bottom of this river, and he practiced for an unknown amount of time before he gained such ability.

However, in the end, it could only use its own body to block the dragon energy in the dragon eye from leaking out. This was the only thing it could do.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao became even more furious with the old man in red and determined to deal with him.

This time, Zhang Hao decided not to hold back anymore and decided to join forces with Zhang Qilin to completely subdue the opponent.

However, when Zhang Hao was about to join the battlefield, he found that the old man in red and Zhang Qilin had actually retreated a distance. The two stood on the circular stone platform next to the gap, facing each other from a distance, without making any unnecessary movements.

Zhang Hao noticed that the two of them seemed to have something to say. In order to obtain more information, he could only choose to stay put for the time being.

"It's you? I didn't expect that you Zhang family members are still alive..." The old man in red finally spoke, but his voice was extremely weird, like two pieces of foam rubbing together, and the sound it made was so unpleasant that it made people laugh. My scalp felt numb after hearing this.

However, the old man in red spoke clearly, and Zhang Hao could hear what he said clearly.

The black gold ancient sword in Zhang Qilin's hand trembled slightly, and his originally expressionless face also showed a hint of movement.

He looked up at the old man in red, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes: "Who are you?"

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that you need to know that your Zhang family and I are both grasshoppers in the same boat. What I'm doing now is just to prevent the family behind me from repeating what happened to your Zhang family. It’s just the same mistake. So, you don’t have to stop me, and you can’t stop me.”

The old man in red seemed to suddenly understand something, and a gloating smile appeared on his face.

Zhang Qilin pursed his lips slightly, obviously feeling uneasy inside. Zhang Hao also knows that Zhang Qilin has always been eager to do his best to solve this matter.

His biggest goal is to explore the secrets behind his family, so he follows Fatty Wang and Hao Xie through many twists and turns.

However, until now, Zhang Qilin still feels that there is a layer of fog between him and the truth, and he cannot see clearly.

Too many clues, too many misdirections and various external factors constantly restrict his path to find the truth.

This long period of exploration also made Zhang Qilin feel a little tired.

Therefore, after Zhang Hao and Shen Minghua established the Yin Yang Inn, Zhang Qilin was willing to stay in the Yin Yang Inn.

Compared with Fatty Wang and Hao Xie, Zhang Qilin hopes to take a new path to explore the story behind himself.

Unexpectedly, time actually gave him the answer. At this moment, Zhang Qilin felt for the first time that he was so close to the truth.

"What happened to our Zhang family? Can you tell me?" Zhang Qilin slowly put down the ancient black gold sword in his hand, with a trace of struggle in his eyes.

However, the old man in red smiled mysteriously: "As a bereaved dog, I think there is no difference between you knowing some things and not knowing them. And even if you know it, it will only make you more painful."


The old man in red slowly raised his head and looked at the water above his head: "Meeting you here means that you have noticed some clues. But these clues are not enough to get you close to the truth. You just need to remember, no matter what I do, Whatever, don’t get involved. Maybe there will be opportunities for our two families to cooperate in the future.”

After saying this, the old man in red's eyes turned cold, and then he turned his face to Zhang Hao, the anger in his eyes was self-evident.

"As for the guy next to you, he actually has a hexagonal black seal. He is obviously a person with an important position in the underworld. Today, I must get rid of him!"

"How dare you!" Zhang Hao shouted angrily.

Zhang Qilin's words seemed to come from the abyss, cold and emotionless.

Zhang Hao couldn't help but cast his eyes on him, but Zhang Qilin stood still like a sculpture without any unnecessary movement. Zhang Hao was in a daze for a moment and forgot the purpose of his trip. He originally wanted to find out the cause of the dragon's energy leaking, explore the connection between the dragon's energy and the building halfway up the mountain, and try to cut off this connection.

However, just when everything was about to come to light, an old man in red suddenly appeared, disrupting all his plans.

The conversation between the old man in red and Zhang Qilin made Zhang Hao hesitate.

This old man seems to know Brother Qilin's life experience very well. If he attacks him rashly, the mystery of Brother Qilin's life experience may become even more out of reach.

Zhang Hao secretly hoped that Brother Qilin could reveal the mystery of his life experience as soon as possible, so he did not want to interrupt at this moment.

However, the old man in red obviously did not cooperate and was full of hostility towards Zhang Hao. This made the atmosphere between the three people instantly become subtle and tense.

"Hmph, when did your Zhang family become the lackeys of the Underworld? Are you still so loyal?" The old man in red looked at Zhang Qilin mockingly, with a trace of anger in his eyes.

"Although I don't know why you are doing this, I still want to remind you that knowing your own identity is the key to the revival of your Zhang family. If you don't know what to do, don't blame me for not cherishing the old relationship." After that, the old man in red ignored Zhang Qilin, turned around, took out his weapon from nowhere, and threw three silver needles at Zhang Hao.

Although the silver needle is small, it is as fast as lightning in the water. Zhang Hao did not dodge, but relied on the hexagonal black seal in front of him to force the silver needles back one by one. At the same time, he looked at Zhang Qilin, as if waiting for his decision.

Zhang Hao didn't care about the life or death of the old man in red. He was more concerned about what choice Zhang Qilin would make in this matter.

"You asked for this..." Seeing that the old man in red dared to attack Zhang Hao in front of him, Zhang Qilin's mouth twitched slightly, and the sleeve of his left arm burst instantly. Complex black and gold patterns appeared on his arms, and a strong sense of oppression instantly hit the old man in red.

"Qilin Arm?!" the old man exclaimed. The entire seabed instantly fell into silence. Not only was the old man in red shocked, but even Menyou Ping, who was usually silent, also showed a look of surprise.

"You actually know this?" Zhang Qilin's eyes flashed with undisguised murderous intent.

"Don't be ridiculous. We have cooperated with your Zhang family before, but we parted ways due to some differences. But this does not mean that we do not understand the details of your Zhang family." The old man in red seemed to realize his gaffe, and coughed lightly. His eyes turned to the gap not far away.

"I never thought that after so many years, our two families would meet again in such a situation." He pointed to the gap and the destroyed formation, "How dare you, the Zhang family, destroy my formation? What a good way to break my formation and prevent us from obtaining dragon energy!”

Zhang Qilin's eyes returned to calmness again, as if he didn't care about the accusations of the old man in red.

"Tell me, what is the connection between your family and our Zhang family? What is all this about?" Zhang Qilin's question hit home. This is the answer he has been eager to know.

However, the old man in red smiled contemptuously: "Why, you don't give me, an old man, an explanation, but you want me to tell you the whole story? Are you worthy of it?"

"You are looking for death!" The old man in red became angrier as he spoke. He raised his hands, and an illusory red shadow emerged from his left side, rushing towards Zhang Qilin with a cold breath.

Zhang Qilin did not hesitate, and the black gold ancient sword in his hand flew out and collided with the red shadow. The two huge energies canceled each other out, and a violent sonic boom erupted.

"Boom!" The water waves at the bottom of the river surged due to the explosion, and a powerful airflow almost lifted Zhang Hao away. Fortunately, he used the power of the hexagonal black seal in time to stabilize his body.

In fact, Zhang Hao could choose to side with Zhang Qilin and fight alongside him. But they are in the same camp, and Zhang Hao knows the reason for Zhang Qilin's abnormal performance this time. He is close to the secret he has been pursuing. If he takes action rashly at this moment, it may lead to unpredictable consequences.

If Zhang Qilin misses the truth again, his heart will be even more painful. This is what Zhang Hao doesn't want to see. Therefore, he decided to let Zhang Qilin compete with the old man in red. As long as Zhang Qilin does not suffer a loss, he will not take action. This would not only allow Zhang Qilin to learn the secret as soon as possible, but also allow him to choose the direction of the negotiation.

After making up his mind, Zhang Hao once again turned his attention to the Water Dragon King who was still struggling to seal the dragon's eye. I have to say that the Water Dragon King really tried his best this time. He was exuding a lavender aura, forming a semi-enveloping mini-sky. Dragon Qi is constantly steaming in the sky. Although a small amount of Dragon Qi occasionally escapes, most of it is firmly trapped by him.

Looking at the huge turtle shell of the Water Dragon King, Zhang Hao finally understood the source of the scars on its body. Dragon energy is a yang thing, powerful and full of momentum. Unable to leave smoothly, the Dragon Qi constantly collided and scratched with the Water Dragon King's turtle shell during the transpiration process. Each scratch leaves a deep dent in the tortoise's shell.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel slightly moved. He secretly made up his mind to retrieve the Zhenjiang dragon coffin as soon as possible. Only by retrieving the Zhenjiang dragon coffin can the Water Dragon King get rid of this pain. This is not the Water Dragon King's fault, so why should he let it bear it alone?

So, Zhang Hao waved his right hand, and a yin-yang source shining with colorful light slowly floated towards the Water Dragon King.

"Water Dragon King, you must hold on! I will definitely find the Zhenjiang dragon coffin as soon as possible!" The Water Dragon King raised his head, opened his eyes and saw the origin of yin and yang suspended in the sky. There was a flash of relief and surprise in its eyes.

With a slight nod, the Water Dragon King opened a small hole in the small sky and used soft suction to suck the source of yin and yang into his body. The colorful light instantly enveloped the Water Dragon King's body, quickly repairing the new cracks on its body. The Water Dragon King's turtle shell returned to its original state again.

Closing his eyes with satisfaction, the purple dome on Water Dragon King's body became darker. This time, it sealed the dragon energy even more tightly, and there was no leakage of dragon energy for a long time.

Seeing that there was no serious problem on the Water Dragon King's side, Zhang Hao turned his attention back to Zhang Qilin and the old man in red.

After the fierce exchange just now, both of them seemed to have been slightly injured. Zhang Qilin stood on a high place holding an ancient black gold sword, his hands still trembling slightly. Obviously, the duel just now had a big impact on him.

The old man in red across from him didn't look good. He was panting heavily, and his body was hunched over at this moment. It was obvious that he was getting old and had suffered a big loss in the head-on confrontation with Zhang Qilin.

"It's really unexpected that your Zhang family has been in such a state of decline that you can still have a rising star like you. It seems that your Zhang family's luck has not completely dissipated, and it cannot be eliminated in a while." The old man in red took a deep breath. He took a breath and forcibly straightened his rickety body, obviously not wanting to embarrass the family in this duel.

Zhang Qilin's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he stared at the old man in red opposite him. There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was staring at a cold stone wall. He said coldly: "Are you going to say it or not?" The black gold ancient sword in his hand was raised again and pointed at the old man in red.

Although it is unclear what the relationship between the family behind the old man in red and the Zhang family is, Zhang Qilin is not stupid. He could clearly feel that the camp where the old man in red belonged was in conflict with the Zhang family, otherwise the old man in red would not have shown that gloating smile after learning his true identity. Since they are enemies, there is no need for mercy.

"You should be the last Zhang Qilin in your family, and you can only be the last one. Because your Zhang family's luck has run out, you may just be making your last struggle." Zhang Hao on the side suddenly heard the old man in red. After saying such words, he looked at Zhang Qilin in shock. It seems that the name "Zhang Qilin" may not be the real name, but just a code name. (End of chapter)
