Chapter 312 Threats from the outside
The bright moon appears on the sea, and the bright moon shines brightly.
The sound of dripping water falling to the ground sounded, and the air was filled with the smell of dust and blood.
You Su stepped forward, and through the gaps between the branches, the pure moonlight shone down, illuminating the body hanging on the branches pale.
A rope was hung around Huang Xi's neck. His head drooped feebly, but his hands were stuck on the ground like green onions, and gurgling blood flowed from the gaps in his arms.
Seeing this scene, You Su clenched his fists unconsciously, his joints bulging.
He expected that this battle for the fairy island would be filled with bloodshed, but he did not expect that it would come so quickly. Even on the first day, there were already people lying dead on the island.
He looked around, taking the tree with Huang Xi as the center, there was no grass growing within ten meters, only black soil. The soil was covered with cracks and depressions, and the messy footprints and blood were enough to prove that this was a bloody battle.
Obviously, it was only today that he met this simple monk. Their interaction was extremely brief, but You Su was deeply impressed by this monk.
He is not selfish at all. It can be seen from his calm and self-sufficient attitude towards treasures. Maybe he will not be a good seeker, but he must be a good senior brother and a teacher with an eye. The disciple who is most reluctant to criticize.
When the two of them parted, they were still laughing and discussing the situation of his first trip out of the island, but he didn't even have the chance to tear up the teleportation talisman... He just accepted it, he didn't even have any idea about this inheritance, he was just an insignificant speculator, why would he cause death?
In the quiet night, only the sound of You Su's heavy breathing echoed.
Vendetta?
You Su thinks there should be no such possibility. Huang Xi, a remote monk, has a good temperament that can be seen by the naked eye. How could there be such a deep entanglement?
Have a dispute over something?
That's not right... Huang Xi was even polite when asking for Floating Light Grass from his own place in the Condensing Water Realm. How could he possibly get into a dispute with someone?
Remembering the Floating Light Grass, You Su hurriedly ran behind him, only to find that the sack he was carrying on his back was nowhere to be seen.
Is it true that he is motivated by wealth, killing people and getting goods...
This is not a rare thing in the world of immortality, it is even commonplace. It's just that because Yu Su is either trapped in Izumo City or staying in the Xuanxiao Sect, the largest sect in Zhongyuan Continent, he doesn't have deep contact with the darkness of the world of immortality.
But You Su felt something was wrong. If it was just for Huang Xi's gain, why did he have to kill someone? Can't you let him go, or give him a chance to tear up the teleportation talisman and leave the island? Why cut off his hands and hang them here as if to vent his anger to the public?
Yousu Bai was puzzled. Looking at the half-dark fairy island illuminated by the moon, he felt deeply uneasy.
You Su drew out the Mo Song Sword, and with a flash of sword light, Huang Xi's body fell down.
You Su caught it tightly and closed his eyes, which were staring at death, feeling an unspeakable bitterness in his heart.
Another good person has been lost in the world. Unfortunately, he has passed away. It is impossible for You Su to pursue the murderer for a simple friendship person for thousands of miles.
You Su's fingers flew, his lips moved, and a spell was formed. The black soil around his feet softened on its own. You Su simply dug and took notes, and then he easily dug out a grave.
This soft soil technique was one of his newly learned techniques. The purpose was to help him escape when he was trapped in a cave. However, he did not expect that the first time he used it was to dig someone's grave.
Just when Yousu was holding Huang Xi's body, a cloud blocked the bright moon, and blackness completely swallowed up the fairy island.
You Su's black pupils have many magical uses. As early as the night when he killed Master Ling, he knew that the black pupils had the ability of night vision. However, this kind of night vision is not absolute, but can only see living things.
In other words... it is something with temperature.
There was no light and no living things everywhere, so You Su relied on his spiritual consciousness, which was like an arm and a finger, but he was shocked to find that the range that his spiritual consciousness could explore was even smaller!
The range he could see during the day was ten meters, but at night it was only nearly eight meters...
Such an environment made him fearful. True Immortal Zhengyang meant it To make the night more dangerous.
He had to concentrate more and be alert to any disturbance around him.
But he is blind to begin with, and his hearing power is far beyond that of ordinary monks.
Just as You Su dragged Huang Xi's body into the grave, a rustling sound came. Although You Su was still squatting, he immediately entered a state of preparation for war, and his muscles were ready to go. .
In the darkness, two figures can be vaguely seen, one tall and one short, so close together that they look like they are together.
“Brother, the sound is coming from over there!”
You Su vaguely saw the shorter figure pointing towards him.
"Look for it." The tall monk nodded.
You Su was a little surprised. The sound of digging and moving corpses was indeed true, but these two people did not have any lighting objects such as fire, but they came very quickly, as if they were not affected by the darkness at all, but Go straight to where you are.
You know, even the third elder was amazed by the strength of You Su's spiritual consciousness, saying that he had completely reached the level of Ning Shui Realm, but You Su knew that this was the result of his restraint. Of course, even he himself didn't know the reason, and he guessed it was because of those memory fragments.
But even the range of his exploration was only eight meters. There was no way these people could detect him so far. Then they dared to attack so boldly at a place where there were obviously people at night. Aren't they afraid of an ambush?
Do they have special powers? Or a fool?
Because of this hesitation, the two of them were already approaching, but You Su had no intention of running away. After all, Huang Xi's funeral was only halfway through.
“Don’t come over.” You Su told him coldly.
As expected, the two people stopped, and the taller one asked:
"Is Xiong the same person?"
"It has nothing to do with you. If you take another step closer, your life or death will be uncertain. ." You Su's tone was still as cold as a frost-covered sword.
"You are just a person from the Ningshui lower realm, but your tone is quite serious! My senior brother intends to protect you, why are you so ungrateful?!" The short monk pointed at You Su angrily.
"Junior brother, I have told you before that you must be wary on this island. This fellow Taoist should be more careful about us." The tall monk obviously saw it more clearly.
"I don't need your protection, just retreat." You Su didn't want to have an unprovoked conflict.
“This fellow Taoist doesn’t know something. Although there is a teleportation talisman to protect his life, there have been many murders on the island, which shows that the teleportation talisman is by no means foolproof. I see that your realm is not high and you are alone. , I just want to invite you to join us, so that we can stay together and spend the night peacefully." The tall monk's voice was sincere.
"Thank you for your kindness. I'm used to being a loner." You Su coldly refused.
The tall monk was reluctant, "Fellow Taoist, don't be nervous. I am Yu Jichang, a disciple of Xingyue Sect in Nanyangzhou. This is my junior brother Cha Ao. We are definitely not bad people. I will light a fire and see. Once you have the token in my hand, you will believe me."
"In this dark night, you are telling everyone that you are here."
You Su also has something to do with the Xingyue Sect. I heard that this is a first-class immortal family on the Tianqi Mountain in Nanyangzhou. The names of these two disciples are much louder than Huang Xi. Both of them are in the Ningshui realm.
But You Su still held down the hilt of his sword. This was a dark jungle, and dangers might be lurking everywhere. Exposing his position proactively was tantamount to seeking death.
Maybe... the danger is already close at hand.
"It doesn't matter, is it possible that everyone has to hide in the darkness? Although lighting a fire will attract unscrupulous people, it can also gather my righteous people. If no one lights the fire, I will be the only one at night Light.”
What this man said was grand, but it’s a pity that You Su could never hear such high-sounding words:
“You should seek death and stay far away, don’t let your light shine on me.”
“What is so shameful about you? "Can't you take it anymore?" Zha Ao obviously has no patience with You Su.
"Zha Ao, have you forgotten the teachings of our Star and Moon Religion? The stars and moon are the only lights at night, and they should shine on everyone."
Yu Jichang taught his junior brother a lesson, He took out a torch, and with a flash of orange light, a hot fire ignited.
The area several meters in radius was instantly illuminated, and the two finally saw You Su's figure clearly. They looked at it for a moment and looked at each other, as if they were sure of something.
But in the next moment, the two of them looked at the body half-entered into the grave with horror on their faces.
They glanced around very quickly, and Cha Ao seemed to understand something instantly, and said in panic:
"Senior brother! He killed someone! No wonder he didn't want you to light a fire!"< br>
You Su frowned and was interrupted when he was about to explain.
"This fellow Taoist! I thought you were a fellow Taoist, but I didn't expect you to be no different from those beasts that eat human flesh and bones!"
Yu Jichang looked disappointed, but his eyes stared at You Su fiercely, as if he was To avenge the body in the pit.
"He..."
"Stop talking and die!" Cha Ao's expression suddenly changed, and he roared and rushed forward at a flying speed.
Zha Ao's moves were extremely cruel, as if there was an invisible blade in his hand, going straight into his heart.
You Su frowned and had no choice but to accept the attack. The long sword at his waist was already unsheathed, and his figure was like a black thunder, attacking Cha Ao who was close at hand.
The two of them were not far apart. The distance of ten feet was no different for You Su than face to face. The physical explosive power of the monks in the same realm was far inferior to his, and there was no chance to escape. Just at the moment of the confrontation, Yu Jichang's expression changed:
"Stop!"
Unfortunately, this shout did not hinder You Su's sword power at all, but instead This made his junior brother hesitate.
A gust of wind blew through the lightning and flints. The torch in Yu Jichang's hand flickered on and off, and a stream of blood splashed onto his cheek.
It is the blood of his junior brother Cha Ao.
Zha Ao looked at his broken arm that had fallen to the ground. His numb consciousness had not even reacted to the sudden severe pain.
"You are looking for death!" Cha Ao covered the bleeding wound with pain and hatred, his veins popped out and said, "I'm going to chop off your hands!"
Yu Jichang's expression He also became extremely sinister. He stuck the torch on the ground angrily, and his aura was rising steadily.
He never thought that a mere Ningshui lower realm would cut off an arm of a Ningshui upper level junior brother with just one blow. Of course, this was suspected of being a big deal to Zha Aotuo, but it was still too disturbing. Somewhat unbelievable.
“Who are you?”
“Huang Xi’s friend, by the way, Huang Xi is him.”
You Su pointed at the person in the grave with his sword. The corpse, he was suddenly glad that it had not been buried in the soil so early, otherwise how could he have witnessed the moment of revenge for him with his own eyes.
"It seems you have figured it out..." Yu Jichang gritted his teeth sinisterly.
You Su shook his head, "You were exposed too quickly, and you were so indiscriminate that you couldn't wait to take action. It shows that your original purpose was to kill me."
"You are in the lower realm of condensation water! I just pinched it. Damn you! I shouldn't have listened to my senior brother and tried to talk to you first! I should have done it directly!" Cha Ao has already used magic to stop the bleeding.
“The thief shouts to catch the thief, it’s a very classic routine.” You Su bowed his body like a charged bow, “I was still wondering why you ran so fast, but now that I think about it, in fact you didn’t You are very familiar with this place, so you dare to run so fast.”
“You are very smart and cautious, but you have no chance to avenge your brother.” Yu Jichang’s fists suddenly flashed with light blue. , Soul-catching eyes, "Hand over your teleportation talisman, and we can let you go."
"Is that what you said to Huang Xi?" You Su asked.
"No, he is easier to deceive than you..." Yu Jichang smiled sinisterly.
“But he is not easy to deceive either.” Being honest does not mean that you are stupid.
“It’s not easy to lie, but he seems to have just found the last medicinal plant for his junior sister. He was ready to tear up the letter and go out, so his vigilance was naturally lowered. Otherwise, with his strength, the two of us would be Brother, you have to suffer a lot if you confront him. You said that a country bumpkin from such a country bumpkin place is very difficult to bite..."
The truth of Huang Xi's death was already revealed in his cold words.
This simple monk, when he fulfilled his wish, must have let the two people get close to him out of good intentions, but in the end he lost his life because of his gullibility.
You Su squeezed Mo Songjian tightly, and Mo Songjian trembled slightly again, responding to You Su's uncontrollable murderous intention.
He will not seek revenge for Huang Xi thousands of miles away, but the enemy is right in front of him, and You Su doesn't mind getting rid of him quickly.
An explosion that shredded the air sounded, and Yousu rushed like thunder.
Obviously he is more skilled in fighting than his junior brother, and his fists have been prepared for a long time.
But in the face of You Su's devastating sword power, he had no intention of evading it, but chose to be tough!
You Su immediately understood his intention. He was deliberately entangling himself so that the broken-armed Cha Ao could participate in the battle!
He never thought about winning on his own from the beginning!
You Su didn't dare to fight, and the powerful fist was separated at the first touch, and the sharp knife in Cha Ao's hand came behind him like a ghost.
“I’m going to kill you!”
Yu Su’s figure spun like a ghost, and the Ruyi Wind Control Technique came in handy again! This allowed him to dodge this pincer attack with a posture that would never be possible in the Condensing Water Realm.
"Fight quickly."
Yu Jichang glanced at the burning torch and reminded him coldly, then suddenly increased his speed and his punches became more and more fierce. Coupled with Cha Ao's harassment, You Su inevitably defended passively. .
Both of them have their own explanations for their attacks. The fists led him to the path of the sharp knife, and the sharp knife forced him to the landing point of the fist.
The brothers worked closely together, almost like habitual criminals who often committed evil and murder together.
You Su mentally defended himself, deliberately luring the enemy deeper. He found the right opportunity and suddenly jumped high into the air.
Even though the two of them were surprised, they felt that Yusu who fell in the air was asking for trouble!
Now -
You Su opened his dark eyes and slashed horizontally with a sword in one hand.
He hasn’t fought with anyone for an unknown amount of time, but he has never stopped polishing Mo Ting’s sword spirit!
The sword energy is like a rainbow!
The black blade fell on his fists, and the blue light on it was instantly extinguished. A look of surprise flashed in Cha Ao's eyes. He seemed to see an ink dragon piercing the fire in the dark night, twisting his senior brother's arms into pieces. Smashed.
Yu Jichang flew upside down for more than ten meters. A deep groove was scraped on the ground, and then he barely managed to steady himself when he hit a tree. He tilted his head and found that he was already dead. .
Zha Ao looked at You Su who turned towards him, and felt that he saw the god of death in the dark night. His knees were trembling, and he knelt down directly. He kowtowed repeatedly:
"Sir Don't kill me!"
You Su just looked at him coldly, as if he were looking at an ant.
Although these two people are at the Ningshui realm, their auras are far inferior to Huang Xi's. Without a sneak attack and some dirty tricks, it would be impossible to kill Huang Xi.
You Su drew out his sword, pressed it on Cha Ao's lower abdomen, and aimed it at the spiritual platform under his abdomen.
Zha Ao's veins and veins suddenly flexed, and he felt the sword energy surging in his abdomen. As long as he didn't obey the instructions, his internal organs would be shattered in an instant.
"Give me Huang Xi's things and your invitation letter."
Zha Ao's knees were shaking and he took out a large sack from his Qiankun bag.
"Where's the invitation? Where is it? I'll get it for you!"
You Su stabbed the sword, already piercing Cha Ao's coat.
It is better to hide a treasure like the teleportation talisman in the Qiankun Bag than to hide it in an advantageous position. In a life-or-death situation, the sooner you rip off the talisman, the better.
But Nacha Ao hesitated, tears and urine flowed out together:
“Sir, I don’t have an invitation letter... Huang Xi’s invitation letter is on my senior brother’s body. , but he is already dead!"
You Su frowned, "Where is your invitation letter? If you don't have one, why didn't Huang Xi give it to you?"
" Not only I don’t have it, but my senior brother doesn’t have it either! We set this trap just to steal the invitation from you!”
You Su was stunned, and then stabbed hard again, drawing blood:
"Your invitation was snatched?"
"No! We didn't have one in the first place!"
"No? Then how did you enter the island?"
"I didn't say you had to have an invitation to enter the island, sir!" Cha Ao couldn't help but fall backwards, trying to get the sword further away from him.
“Speak clearly!” You Su pressed forward fiercely.
“As we all know, there are only three hundred and sixty people who have received invitations... Among these three hundred and sixty, there are not all the talents in the world, and many of those who were not selected are not convinced. I felt that among the three hundred and sixty, there were a lot of people who were just trying to make ends meet, so after you all entered the island, Zhenyang Zhenxian selected many people from the people we were watching and sent them to the island... Zhengyang Zhenxian gave them to you. He gave us the opportunity and let us enter the island to seize the talisman. Whoever can seize the talisman is the one invited..."
Zha Ao was frightened and confessed everything without reservation.
"Sir, please don't kill me! I will tear up the talisman and leave the island right now. I dare not offend you again!"
You Su raised his sword and dropped it, and he separated.
He turned back and looked behind him. As expected, the light of the fire attracted a lot of prying eyes.
