Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 1078 She came from the dead city with a coffin on her back...

The river water was turbid and yellow, gurgling and flowing, and looked very ordinary. But it was one of the most terrifying Yellow Spring waters in the world, and could quickly corrode even the flesh and blood of the Creation Saint Emperor.

Extremely terrifying.

of course.

This is mainly because it is in the Dead City. If the Yellow Spring Water is outside the Dead City, it would not be so scary.

Legend has it that the inner river connects to the river of the underworld, but no one knows whether it is true or not.

But it is indeed the water from the Yellow Spring.

At this time, Wu Zu stood quietly on the shore, glancing left and right at the monsters on both sides without showing any fear.

The Dead City is indeed terrifying and extremely weird, but he himself is one of the weird things.

At this time, the armored monster and several dark shadows stared at Wu Zu with cold eyes, and they couldn't help but feel a little confused. Where is the majestic middle-aged man? The human skeleton in front of them was definitely not the majestic middle-aged man. The image might change, but the aura and form could not change.

Where did the majestic middle-aged man run off to?

Where did this human-shaped skeleton come from?

"Don't hurt him, he is Xiaoxi's new friend and a member of Xiaoxi's same clan." The little girl in red skirt on the other side shouted hurriedly.

The armored monster and the dark shadow looked at the little girl in the red dress.

"Don't ever hurt him."

The little girl in the red dress reminded again.

The armored monster and the dark shadow that were about to attack temporarily gave up their attacks after hearing the words, but they were still full of murderous intent and looked at the Martial Ancestor with cold eyes. A strange aura permeated their bodies, and their appearance was very terrifying.

What is their mission?
It is to kill all living beings that enter the city of death.

Although they temporarily gave up, they did not completely give up their killing intent. If they had the chance, they would still choose to attack. Killing all the creatures that entered the dead city had already been branded in their souls. How could they give up so easily?
However, after all, they had just fought with the majestic middle-aged man, and not only were they severely injured, but they also exhausted their strength, and now they were unable to fight again. If the little girl in the red skirt spoke again, they would temporarily give up the attack, as long as they could not let the Martial Ancestor leave the Dead City.

Although their appearance looked very terrifying at this time, they were already at the end of their strength.

The dark shadow turned into a light gray shadow.

The armored monster turned into a monster covered in a layer of gray armor that looked like it had been weathered...

If Wu Zu could be lured to another stone arch bridge, he could naturally be killed by the ghosts guarding the bridge.

"I mean no harm."

Wu Zu glanced at the monster and said lightly.

The armored monster and the dark shadow did not leave, nor did they speak. They have never spoken...

"Qingjia, how is your injury? Are you okay?"

The little girl in the red dress came to the shore, looked at the armored monster covered in wounds and said worriedly, "What about you guys?"

They still didn't speak.

"It's good that he's okay. Xiaoxi was scared to death." The little girl in the red skirt said with fear, "That celestial being was too powerful. There were so many of us, but we couldn't beat him. Zombies..."

She felt a little sad.

The zombie guarding this stone arch bridge is dead.

If the stone arch bridge had not collapsed, perhaps the zombies could have been resurrected, but the stone arch bridge collapsed and fell into the Yellow Spring River...

Zombies should be completely dead.

"Thank you. If it weren't for you, that celestial being might have escaped." The little girl in the red skirt expressed her gratitude again. "My name is Su Xiaoxi. What's your name?"

"Martial Ancestor."

Wu Zu said calmly.

"Martial Ancestor?"

The little girl in the red dress blinked her eyes and then muttered in a low voice, "There is such a name? Is this your name or your title?"

"name."

Wu Zu said.

"A name?" The little girl in the red dress thought for a moment and said, "I seem to remember that this name is very special. You'd better change your name and not call yourself Wu Zu. Wu Zu is too heavy a name. Most people can't bear it. It will weigh you down..."

Wu Zu just shook his head and said nothing.

"Really, I'm not lying to you. This name is very special. If you can't bear it, it will weigh you down." Su Xiaoxi reminded again, "I seem to vaguely remember that this name represents a person from my Jiuzhou human race..."

"But I can't remember anything about him."

She shook her head.

"I am the beginning of all martial arts."

Wu Zu said calmly, but very domineeringly.

"Qingjia, go back to the inner city and visit my home."

Su Xiaoxi suddenly said.

The armored monster and several dark shadows looked at each other but did not take immediate action.

"Go quickly, I suspect there is something unusual in my home, go and check it out." Su Xiaoxi urged them.

After a while.

The armored monster and the black shadow left.

Su Xiaoxi waited for a while, and seeing that they did not come back, she immediately said: "Martial Ancestor, they are gone, you should leave here quickly. If they come back, you will not be able to leave. Although they will give me some face because I am here, and will not kill you in front of me, they will definitely kill you in the end..."

"They will kill any living thing that enters here."

Su Xiaoxi urged.

Wu Zu nodded when he heard this, glanced around, then turned and flew towards the city gate.

Su Xiaoxi was relieved to see Wu Zu leave. She patted her chest and rushed to the side, preparing to cross the bridge to the outer city. When she arrived at the outer city, before she reached the city gate, she heard the sound of fighting and became angry.

"stop!"

She rushed over quickly and saw that it was indeed Qing Jia and the others fighting with Wu Zu, so she quickly shouted, "Stop fighting, they are our own people, stop it now."

However, no one stopped and the fierce fighting continued.

Now Wu Zu is fighting one against five, and he is not at a disadvantage. The main reason is that Qing Jia and the others are too badly injured.

Haven't recovered yet.

Su Xiaoxi immediately rushed over to stop them, and slowly persuaded them to stop. She said to Qingjia and the others unhappily, "You actually lied to me."

Qingjia and the others didn't say anything, just stared at Wu Zu coldly.

"Qingjia, go open the door."

She spoke to Qing Jia, but Qing Jia did not move.

The city gate had already been closed by Qing Jia and the others, or perhaps by Wu Zu himself. The taboos of guarding the dead city allowed the city gate to be opened and closed at will, but it was not so easy for outsiders.

Her situation was very special and it was difficult to open the city gate.

"Are you going to open the door? If not, I will." Su Xiaoxi said, causing Qing Jia and the others to change their expressions. However, at this time, Wu Zu went forward to open the door, but was immediately blocked by a black shadow, and the fight started again.

"stop!"

Su Xiaoxi shouted angrily.

Qingjia and the others had to stop again, but they guarded the city gate tightly to prevent Wu Zu from leaving.

This left Su Xiaoxi helpless. Although they were friends, they would not listen to her on certain things.

"Get out of the way, I'll open the door myself."

Su Xiaoxi walked towards the city gate and pushed away Qing Jia and others who were blocking her way.

The Martial Ancestor simply watched them vigilantly to prevent them from launching a sneak attack. Although their strength was greatly reduced, they were still extremely terrifying.

If you are not careful, you will die here.

"Step aside."

Su Xiaoxi said angrily, pushing away a dark shadow again, "He is a member of Xiaoxi's tribe, let him leave quickly."

Qingjia and the others didn't speak and remained silent.

"Humph, I tell you, Master is back, and Master loves me the most." Su Xiaoxi said proudly, "When the time comes, I'll let Master take care of you. Do you really think that no one in the world can take care of you?"

Qingjia and the others were stunned for a moment, then let Su Xiaoxi pass through.

She came to the city gate, stared at it, was silent for a moment, and then reached out to open the gate. At this moment, she looked extremely painful, as if she was suffering from some kind of punishment, which caused her form to change drastically.

Qingjia and the others watched, wanting to stop it, but ultimately failed. At this moment, they just stared coldly at Wu Zu, as if they were looking at a dead person... "Are you okay?"

Wu Zu ignored them, but said with some guilt.

He could naturally see that Su Xiaoxi was in great pain, and even her body was fading.

"I, I'm fine. I won't die." Su Xiaoxi said in great pain, but she still opened the city gate. "Don't worry, my master will not let Xiaoxi die."

"Thank you."

Wu Zu said after a moment of silence.

click-

The city gate finally opened slowly.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxi's body was getting fainter and fainter. She urged, "Quickly, quickly get out. Remember, forget everything here, and don't tell anyone about it even if you die. This, this is related to the fate of our Jiuzhou human race..."

"I won't tell you even if I die."

Wu Zu stared at it, and as the gap in the city gate opened wider and wider, he immediately flew away. But at this moment, Qing Jia and the others attacked again, bursting out with terrifying power, trying to kill Wu Zu the moment he left...

Wu Zu shouted loudly and used "Wu Dong Qian Kun" to resist the attacks of Qing Jia and others.

call out--

His figure flashed out of the city gate in an instant.

"Don't call me Wu Zu anymore. Change your name. It will crush you to death."

Su Xiaoxi was powerless to let go, but she shouted at the crack in the door, hoping that Wu Zu would change his name. However, she could not remember why this name would crush Wu Zu to death...

This name is very special.

click-

The city gate slammed shut.

Su Xiaoxi fell down weakly, and her body became very faint, as if only a shadow was left.

At this moment, Qingjia and the others started to roar wildly, exuding a terrifying aura, and wanted to chase them out. However, they could not leave the dead city...

"He is from Xiaoxi's tribe..."

Su Xiaoxi sat slumped against the city gate, looking at the extremely angry Qingjia and the others and said, "You don't have to die. Even if the master comes back, he won't punish you."

Ow—

But they still roar.

At this moment, they seemed to be enduring some terrible punishment, causing them to tremble all over and their shapes to change drastically.

It seems like it is about to fall apart.

Su Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, as if she had not expected that they would be punished so terribly. She couldn't help but feel guilty and whispered, "I'm sorry, Xiao, Xiaoxi..."

But Wu Zu is a member of the clan, and an emperor-level member at that.

How could he be allowed to die here?

It was unknown how much time had passed before the mysterious punishment gradually disappeared. Qingjia and the others were like a mess of black mist, collapsing on the ground one by one...

"Are you guys alright?"

Su Xiaoxi said with great apology.

Qingjia and the others did not respond, still lying there, seemingly unable to move.

After resting for half an hour, Su Xiaoxi finally struggled to get up and apologized to them:
"I'm sorry, but he can't die..."

After saying that, she slowly walked towards the inner city.

At this moment, five groups of chaotic black fog floated towards the five directions of the dead city. Then strange black fog surged in from all directions and continuously merged into the chaotic black fog.

as time goes by.

The chaotic black fog grew larger and larger, gradually transforming into a very terrifying form.

They recovered again, but returned to their original form and lost their previous memories. The armored Qingjia was now a dark shadow and did not become armored.

They began to patrol the dead city and kill all living creatures that entered the dead city.

……

……

Su Xiaoxi walked across the Hundred Ghosts Bridge, came to the inner city and headed towards the core area of ​​the inner city.

The core area of ​​the inner city was filled with deathly energy and rolling black fog, which was so thick that it seemed to have turned into substance.

The eyes cannot penetrate it.

The aura of countless mysterious laws is emerging and floating...

She gradually came into darkness, which seemed to be the extreme of death, but in the extreme of death there was hope of life.

Life and death are intertwined.

Yin and Yang are blending.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, she came to a colorful crystal coffin and whispered, "We're home..."

After saying that, she fell down softly and her figure slowly disappeared.

And in the colorful crystal coffin, there lay a little girl who looked exactly like her. She was the one in the coffin.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Su Xiaoxi in the crystal coffin slowly opened her eyes, but her gaze became a little dazed, and she said, "Who am I?"

She thought for a long time before she remembered that her name was Su Xiaoxi.

After a while.

She slowly pushed open the coffin lid and sat up from the coffin, seeming to be still thinking about who she was, what she had done, and why she was in the coffin...

and many more.

After a while, he came out of the crystal coffin.

However, after she came out of the crystal coffin, she was still lying inside, as if she had just walked out as a soul...

She looked at herself lying in the coffin, then gently closed the lid and said blankly: "I am Su Xiaoxi, who is she? She... is Su Xiaoxi..."

He stood there quietly, staring at himself in the coffin.

I didn't know what I should do for a long time.

"Oh, the master is back. I want to go find him..." Su Xiaoxi said softly at some point, "Let's go. Let's go find the master together. The master is back."

So she carried the colorful crystal coffin on her back and walked step by step in the darkness.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, she got tired and put down the colorful crystal coffin, panting heavily. When she had rested enough, she carried the crystal coffin again and continued walking in the dark to find her parents. The crystal coffin was very big, and she was very small. Carrying the crystal coffin on her back was like carrying a mountain on her body.

She carried the crystal coffin on her back and walked out of the darkness step by step...

I don’t know when.

She finally came out of the darkness.

But she also fell down, and the crystal coffin collapsed.

At some point, she opened her eyes again in the crystal coffin, pushed open the coffin lid and walked out, then continued to carry the crystal coffin on her back and walked into the outer city.

All she remembered now was that she had to go find an adult.

The adults are back.

Before she walked out of the inner city, many strange creatures appeared in the inner city.

After seeing the colorful crystal coffin, these indescribable strange creatures retreated and dared not approach.

It seems that the colorful crystal coffin is extremely terrifying.

The inner city is scary.

Even if it is just a simple wall, the pictures carved on it are a strange world that cannot be escaped. If a living being walks through it, they will gradually become the pictures carved on the wall and enter an unknown and terrifying world...

At this time, the weirdness in the world engraved on the wall all retreated after seeing the crystal coffin.

Su Xiaoxi bent over and walked silently with the coffin on her back.
