Chapter 2125: Chapter 2125
The Second City Lord didn't pay any attention to Su Yang's expression and immediately took off the gourd on his head, opening it to pour in the Spiritual Liquid.
This guy's familiar manner reminded Su Yang of previous incidents in the Feather Spirit Palace and the Heavenly Sect.
What exactly were these three fellows up to in the past, why do they seem so experienced in thievery?
Su Yang opened his mouth, wanting to stop the Second City Lord. However, before he could speak, a black line suddenly darted over from the distant sky.
Upon seeing this black line, the Great City Lord seemed to remember something, exclaiming, "Run quickly!"
But it was already too late for him to react, as the black line directly swept up the three Crystal Skulls. Subsequently, the black line dragged these three fellows out of the Spirit Liquid Lake, suspending them mid-air, followed by another whip flying out of the Spirit Liquid Lake, relentlessly whipping the three of them.
Underwater, Su Yang was stunned at the sight of it all. Why did this seem so familiar? Previously inside the Feather Spirit Palace, weren't these three guys beaten up ? How did the same thing happen again inside this valley?
Cautiously glancing around, Su Yang discovered that both the black line and the whip came from that person underwater.
Su Yang tried to approach that person, but no matter how he struggled, he couldn't get near.
And the appearance of that person was unclear, only his head lifted up, seemingly gazing at the three Crystal Skulls in the air.
The whip kept going back and forth, causing the three fellows to cry out miserably.
Looking at the three Crystal Skulls, Su Yang felt quite speechless. How many enemies had these three fellows made in the past? Why do they get beaten wherever they go?
There were many Demon Beasts in the valley, but now they were all curled up inside caves, none daring to come out.
The one in the lake was suppressing the place. With just a casual flick, his whip could turn a powerful Demon Beast to ashes, making these beasts terrified of him.
So now, the valley had turned into a large-scale abuse scene for these three Crystal Skulls. The black line hung them in the air, and the whip lashed back and forth, their cries filled the air.
Su Yang stood on top of the Spirit Liquid Lake, clueless about what to do, so he could only silently watch everything unfold.
Of course, he figured out that although the person in the lake kept whipping these three, he didn't intend to kill them. So, it was probably just a punishment, no need to worry too much.
The whipping continued for several hours until the three Crystal Skulls were hoarse from screaming, and finally, it stopped.
The whip retracted, the black line withdrew, and the three Crystal Skulls fell into the Spirit Liquid Lake.
As soon as they reached Su Yang, the Second City Lord frantically shouted, "Where's the exit! Where's the exit! Run quickly! Run quickly!"
Su Yang was utterly speechless: "You three, what exactly did you do in the past? Why do you get beaten wherever you go?"
"This is not the time to talk about that, we need to run quickly!" the Second City Lord said anxiously. "Besides, how would I know what I did, maybe they're just trying to humiliate us while our strength hasn't recovered!"
Just as the Second City Lord finished speaking, the black line flew over immediately, seeming to be enraged by his words.
The Second City Lord trembled in fear and quickly said, "Grandfather, grandfather, I was wrong, I misspoke, it's I... I'm despicable and shameless, you... you should beat me... it's not your fault, it's not your fault..."
Only then did the black line fly back, the Second City Lord was almost scared to wet his pants, clutching Su Yang's clothes, his face pleading, just wanting Su Yang to quickly take them away.
Su Yang looked at the Great City Lord and the Third City Lord, they also looked extremely frightened and somewhat confused, seemingly unable to recall past events.
Su Yang could only turn toward the person in the Spirit Liquid Lake, loudly saying, "Senior, what exactly did they do to make you so displeased?"
No response, that person seemed dead, just standing quietly in the water.
"Senior? Senior?" Su Yang called out several more times, seeing the person remaining silent, he was also helpless. It seemed he couldn't communicate with this person yet.
Looking around, Su Yang didn't delay there anymore, leading the three Crystal Skulls through the lake bottom and out of Storm Valley again.
The Beigong War God and others were still cultivating in Storm Valley, and Su Yang did not disturb them. After leaving with the three Crystal Skulls, he specifically brought them back to the World Melting Furnace.
Just as they returned, Su Yang immediately asked, "Did you feel anything special or recall any past events when you entered that valley just now?"
The three fellows looked at each other in dismay. The Great City Lord hesitated for a moment before softly saying, "I... I just felt very scared..."
"Scared?" Su Yang frowned. "What kind of fear?"
"Just... just like the situation inside the Feather Spirit Palace..." The Great City Lord pondered for a while before quietly saying, "Or maybe not fear, maybe it's guilt..."
"Guilt!?" Su Yang's eyes widened. These three fellows must have done something unforgivable, which is why they're feeling guilty.
"Oh dear, we truly can't remember anything from before!" the Second City Lord said helplessly. "I also want to remember what happened in the past, at least to know how handsome I used to be. But I really can't recall, what can I do?"
Su Yang glanced at the Second City Lord but was pondering in his heart.
The person within the crack of the Heaven-Reaching Giant Tree in Feather Spirit Palace is awakening.
This person at the bottom of the Spirit Liquid Lake in the World Melting Furnace Valley is clearly in a state of awakening.
The Black Shadow inside the Heavenly Sect Stele is also an existence beyond the Nine Realms.
And these are just the death grounds of Feather Spirit Palace and Storm Valley.
According to reports from the Nine Realms, the real danger lies in the Demon Abyss, an area people know nothing about.
If these two death grounds contain so many secrets, what other mysteries might the Demon Abyss hold?
Su Yang suddenly realized that matters of the Nine Realms really aren't much of a concern. There are too many unknown matters in the universe. Compared to these matters, the disputes over interests in the Nine Realms are mere child's play!
Of course, Su Yang was actually quite anxious in his heart.
The person in Feather Spirit Palace is awakening, and the individual in World Melting Furnace Valley has already awakened. What might happen next is unknown. If these individuals hold any ill intentions towards the Nine Realms, how would the Nine Realms withstand it?
Perhaps it's also time to begin considering the problems of Feather Spirit Palace and the World Melting Furnace. At least preparing in advance could prevent being caught off guard!
