Starting with the titmouse, seventy-two transformations

Chapter 469 He's laughing at you, you don't even realize your death is near.

"Old Du is dead?"

Liu Sheng suddenly stopped, looking at the blood rain falling from the sky, his eyes narrowed.

This is not good news!
No, the aura in this blood rain is sinister and malevolent, exuding a demonic quality, completely different from Old Du's, yet vaguely familiar.

At this moment, Liu Sheng sensed something was wrong. After carefully sensing the surroundings, he felt somewhat relieved, but then a sense of shock arose within him.

If it wasn't Old Du who died, wouldn't that mean he fought against three opponents and even killed a Yin God of the same level?
Is it so powerful?
However, it's probably nearing its end.

We need to hurry over there, lest he really die.

If the Du family holds both their wedding and funeral at the same time, it will truly be a case of "the wedding and funeral clashing."

……

at the same time.

Outside the Dragon Binding Hall, Du Renwang was disheveled, covered in blood, with dim eyes and fluctuating, unstable aura.

Even a dignified Yin spirit couldn't maintain its vital energy, which shows how serious its injuries were.

In order to kill a Yin God of the same level, his inner realm was severely damaged. It will take a long time to recover, and the cost will be huge.

But if they hadn't done that, he would have been the one who died earlier.

Thanks to the Huai Ren Jade Slip that was sent as a betrothal gift, even so, with two Xuan artifacts in hand, he is now at his limit.

It seems they are doomed.

He was not afraid of death.

After all, he had killed countless people and was already mentally prepared to die at the hands of others.

You can't be the only one who kills others, but others can't kill you, right?

They're not giant babies.

Unfortunately, the timing was bad; they acted against the Gongsun family too late, and the world descended into chaos too soon.

If it had been a year or two later, allowing the Du family to fully establish themselves, resolve the mess left by the Gongsun family, and consolidate their base in Youzhou, the situation might have been very different.

Now that I am dead, I fear that the Du family will suffer a calamity.

I only hope that, for Bingyan's sake, Sheng-ge'er will lend Du-shi a hand. I ask for nothing else but the continuation of the family line.

It's a pity I can't attend Sheng Ge's wedding.

That kid really has incredible luck; he was able to kill a Yin spirit with the Yellow Court...

It seems that the immortal opportunities he obtained in the Qingyuan Cave ruins were the most numerous and of the highest quality.

Du Renwang sighed softly, his momentum waning. He raised his head, revealing a face covered in blood, and looked at his opponent who had distanced himself and kept his distance. He paused for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening.

This is because they are afraid of risking their own lives to drag others down with them, unwilling to perish together.

Ah!
"Brother Renwang, we are old acquaintances. Today we are just discussing matters. Why must we resort to violence?"

The speaker was a scholar with a black beard and silver hair, bright and piercing eyes, holding a green bamboo staff. His aura was obscure, as if he were here, yet also there.

“Amitabha Buddha, what Benefactor Gu says is quite right. Benefactor Du, you and I are both spirits of the underworld, with a lifespan of a thousand years. A brief exchange is enough; why must we distinguish between life and death? It's not necessary, it's not necessary…”

The spirit beside him continued the conversation. He was an old monk wearing a bright red kasaya, with a scar on his head, a dignified appearance, and a face full of sorrow.

He patiently and earnestly persuaded Du Renwang, displaying the utmost compassion of a monk. His voice carried a subtle yet persuasive quality, making people trust him without realizing it and do as he said.

These two are Gu Qingyang, the Yin God Ancestor of the Gu Clan of Yangzhou.

One was Master Kongjian of the Great Zen Temple in Jizhou.

Including the fifth demon of the Sword Demon Palace who was previously killed by Du Renwang, these are the three Yin Gods who have come to visit together this time.

"Discussing matters, exchanging ideas? Hahahaha..."

Du Renwang let out a wild laugh, blood gushing from his wound with a hissing sound, spreading into a large cloud of blood mist. If he hadn't been the one involved, he might have actually believed the tricks of these two good-looking guys.

It was only because I possessed two mystical artifacts, especially the Huai Ren Jade Slip which, after being refined, could spontaneously protect me, that I was able to block the previous deadly sneak attack; otherwise…

I have died long ago.

He originally intended to risk his life to take someone down with him, but he didn't expect that these two guys were cunning and had taken precautions in advance.

Now they are using words to provoke each other and surrounding each other without attacking, which is just to buy time until they can't hold on any longer.

pity……

Du Renwang looked regretful, panting heavily, blood dripping from his body, staining the seawater below dark red.

The terrifying heat in the blood boiled the water, causing the steam to rise and gurgle.

From a distance, it looked as if an underwater volcano was erupting, causing countless deaths and injuries among the aquatic creatures, with corpses floating all over the surface of the water.

The Great Zen Temple was the overlord of Ji Province, and the Gu family of Yang Province was one of the four major clans. Both were powerful forces at the provincial level, one on land and the other on water, both connected to You Province.

With the addition of Yanzhou, which borders it to the west, it forms a pincer movement from three directions, like an iron clamp, gripping Youzhou.

Therefore, the Great Zen Temple in Jizhou, the Four Clans in Yangzhou, and the Sword Demon Palace in Yanzhou were the "financial backers" behind the remnants of the Gongsun clan and the masterminds who disrupted the situation in Youzhou.

I had suspected it before, and now this is just confirmation, but unfortunately it's too late.

"Brother Renwang, are you thinking about your younger generation?"

At this moment, Gu Qingyang chuckled softly, intentionally undermining Du Renwang's fighting spirit, and slowly revealed the truth:
"By the way, today is also an auspicious day for your Du family's daughter's wedding..."

"Brother Renwang is too stingy. You didn't even invite us to such an important event as your daughter's wedding. Are you looking down on us?"

"However, Master Kongjian, being compassionate, told us not to take it to heart, so we came uninvited and even brought a generous gift..."

It should have been delivered to your Du family residence by now. We'd also like to take this opportunity to ask for a cup of celebratory wine; I imagine your descendants will enjoy it.

Gu Qingyang spoke fluently and eloquently, becoming more and more excited as he spoke. The murderous intent deep in his eyes surged and churned, almost solidifying into a tangible form.

He had realized that Du Renwang was now only holding on by a thread; once that thread was broken, he would surely die and would have no chance of ever making a comeback.

The key to dissipating this anger is to win their hearts and minds, making them utterly desperate.

Seeing that Du Renwang was only slightly short of breath, he frowned, then said with a smile:
"Oh, right, and the groom for your Du family daughter's marriage, that country bumpkin named Liu something, has already been personally visited by Fellow Daoist Huo Li of the Heavenly Corpse Sect."

By this time, he must have already become a dried-up corpse.

You're not expecting him to come and save you, are you?

"The Heavenly Corpse Sect... Huo Li? Was he the only Yin Spirit to go?"

Du Renwang was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, a strange look appearing on his blood-stained face, before he burst into laughter:
"Good! Good! Good!"

He knew the origin of the Huai Ren Jade Slip; it was obtained from the spirit that killed the Zheng family of Hedong.

That kid has something strange about him, but that doesn't stop him from having the strength to kill Yin Gods.

Huo Li of the Heavenly Corpse Sect went alone, which was like a lamb entering a tiger's den, with a nine-out-of-ten chance of survival.

"Amitabha Buddha, Benefactor Du, why are you laughing?"

An ominous feeling welled up in the monk Kongjian's heart. The swastika symbol was reflected in his eyes, and a chant seemed to emanate from his voice, bewitching people.

"Laugh... laugh..."

"He's laughing at you, that your time to die is coming and you don't even realize it."

The next moment, a clear and indifferent voice rang out behind them, each word like a mountain, striking their hearts and sending chills down their spines.

not good!
