The Eternal World

C168 The Mystery of the Black Robe

"It's nothing. I really admit defeat. Can't you see my sincere expression?" Zhang Chao shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Something's not right... "This brat is full of evil tricks …" When the Vice City Lord heard this, he became even more puzzled.

"I say, did some evil person tell you this secret?" Zhang Chao asked.

"Hmph, the entire Pei City is mine, what do you think?" The Vice City Lord had a disdainful look on his face.

"Un, I knew it!" Zhang Chao licked his lips, those villains would definitely not be trustworthy, but he did not expect the City Lord to arrive so quickly.

This was his own mistake.

But it didn't matter. Rather than fighting to the death with the deputy mayor, he might as well waste time and understand what these people want to do!

Moreover, he didn't want to break the seal so easily. If that was the case, wouldn't all his previous plans be wasted?

However, based on his calculations, if he did not undo the seal, the odds of winning against this city lord were too low. Even if he used his own magical equipment, he would only be able to do so for fifty percent of the time.

"Are you really going to admit defeat?" The Vice City Lord asked in confusion.

"Un, it is absolutely true. It is even more true than true gold!" Zhang Chao nodded, and he did so very straightforwardly.

"You brat, what are you trying to do in the gourd?" The deputy city lord continued to interrogate him.

"I don't even have a gourd, how can I sell medicine?" Zhang Chao grinned: "Hurry, I've already admitted defeat, shouldn't you express your gratitude as well?"

"What do you mean?" The Vice City Lord was knocked out by Zhang Chao.

"How about this!" Zhang Chao curled his lips and said: "Didn't you say that it is not time for me to die yet? Even if you catch me and bring me back, you still have to support me, no? "

"Then we'll just pretend that what happened today didn't happen, and I'll also guarantee that I won't take even half a step out of your City Lord's Mansion. How about it?" Zhang Chao began to bargain.

"Do you take me for a fool? How was this possible? I'll take you back, I'll put you in a death row, and trap you with extra chains, and want to have a good meal and drink more? Dream on? " The Vice City Lord spat. Damn it, is this Zhang Chao really stupid or something?

"That's not much fun. Don't you think that what we did before was pretty good?" Zhang Chao laughed.

"Bullshit, who's playing with you?" The Vice City Lord stared, "I'm warning you, stop playing any tricks. Otherwise, although I won't kill you temporarily, I'll break your limbs, dig out your eyes and tongue, and turn you into a human!"

"Damn, you're so fierce! I'm afraid of listening to you!" Zhang Chao stuck out his tongue, then nodded: "Alright, then it's up to you. But if you want to eat and drink, you better not neglect me, or else even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!"

"Hmph, you still want to become a ghost? "You wish!" The Vice City Lord scoffed, "Let's go. Since you've admitted defeat, it will save me a lot of trouble. Follow me back to the City Lord's Mansion!"

Zhang Chao did not resist and followed the Deputy City Lord back to the City Lord's Mansion.

However, in order to not cause too much of a commotion, the Vice City Lord did not imprison Zhang Chao in a death prison, as he had said.

He was still in his room.

However, he had been placed under heavy guard around the room. This meant that he had been placed under house arrest.

Zhang Chao was not in a hurry either, secretly setting up a small crafting furnace in the room, and started refining all day long. It caused the room to be filled with black smoke, and it stung the nose and eyes of the guards, causing them to feel extremely bitter.

This grandson is already a prisoner, but he's still so restless.

However, after the Vice City Lord knew that Zhang Chao had not stepped foot outside the room again, he did not pay any more attention to him and waited for the day of the red moon's rise.

Three days later, a guest arrived in Zhang Chao's room.

The person who walked in was a man wearing a long black robe. His entire body was covered in a layer of black fog.

He sent the guard away and entered the room. Looking at the crafting furnace that was continuously releasing black smoke, he seemed to be stunned for a moment.

"Aiyo, there's a guest coming. Sorry, I don't have time to greet you right now. This thing is almost done!" Zhang Chao swept a glance over the black-robed man and recognized him as the second black-robed man who appeared in the small forest that night.

"It's fine, I'm not busy!" The black robed man didn't bother with it. He just sat there on the bed, waiting.

After the time it took for two incense sticks to burn, Zhang Chao extinguished the fire, then picked up a handkerchief to wipe his hands, turned around and looked at the other party: "Come to me, neither say nor move, and wait so obediently for me to finish refining. If I'm not wrong, you're the one who sent me the letter in the dark, right?"

"That's right!" The black-robed man nodded.

"So, you're someone I know?" Zhang Chao raised an eyebrow, and then subconsciously swept a glance in the direction of the door.

"Don't worry. From the moment I entered this room, the entire room had been set up with a barrier. From the outside, they can only see the room. You're still refining while I'm still sitting here!" The man in black chuckled, "Furthermore, they won't be able to hear our conversation, so you can be at ease!"

"Tsk tsk, good move!" Zhang Chao gave a thumbs up: "But the one to say it is you, and not me?"

Furthermore, when one used it, it was extremely simple. There was no need for many people to use it together, nor was there the need to draw a spirit formation. Of course, its effects and might were greatly inferior to that of ordinary spirit formations.

But no matter what, it was a very convenient method.

Zhang Chao didn't really dabble in this area, but he did know a few ways to release enchantments, but it wasn't very practical.

"Zhang Chao, I never thought that you would still be so calm at such a time, it's truly surprising!" The man in black seemed to be smiling bitterly as he kept shaking his head.

"Eh? Your head doesn't stop shaking. Are you on drugs? " Zhang Chao pulled over a chair and sat down, sizing up the other party.

The sense of familiarity that this man gave grew even stronger. However, there was always a strange power that interfered with it, affecting his ability to judge accurately.

"Stop talking nonsense. There are only five days until the full moon. As for this full moon, it is extraordinary. You will also be killed on this day. Aren't you anxious about being used as a sacrifice?" The man in black asked in a deep voice.

"You've seen it for yourself. Now that things have come to this, what's the use of being in such a hurry?" Zhang Chao shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

"You did that on purpose, right? With your strength, even if you can't beat that Vice City Lord, you would not be forcefully held back by him. Do you want to wait until that day comes and find out the whole story? " The man in black sighed, "That's not a bad idea, but you must know that the day has really come. Even if you knew the truth of the matter, you still wouldn't be able to escape death!"

"Part of the reason is probably because of you, but doesn't that mean you're still here?" Zhang Chao licked his lips and laughed: "I have calculated it accurately too, you will definitely come and find me, and even more so won't watch me die!"

"Why are you so sure? Do you know who I am? "We stand on different sides. Even if you really die, isn't it the same whether I care or not?" The man in black was a bit surprised, and his words were accompanied by a bit of anxiety.

"I wasn't sure before, but from this moment on, I'm sure!" Zhang Chao rubbed his nose: "Because if I die, you will also die, that's why you can't wait to see me!"

"What did you say?" The black-robed man suddenly stood up. "Do you believe that I can kill you right now?"

"Enough, continue pretending. Is there any difference between killing me and committing suicide?" Zhang Chao crossed his legs nonchalantly: "Er Goudan, you're great, you almost fooled me!"

"... I warn you, don't mention that name again! " The black-robed man was somewhat frantic.

"Okay, Eggy, speak. What are you planning to do by putting on such a big show?" Zhang Chao spread out his hands and said.

"You, how did you recognize me? I have the treasures of the Shadow Squad on me, which can change the sound of my voice and conceal all of my presence! " The man in black slapped his chest, and the swirling black mist instantly disappeared, revealing his face.

Who else could it be other than the Demon King?

"Heh, it's hard to say. Intuition!" Zhang Chao laughed: "I haven't seen you in a long time since we last met Qiaoyao Mountain. It seems that you've had a good time, getting mixed up with those bastards from the Shadow Squad!"

"I don't have any other choice. I have to do it because of the mission!" Eggy felt a bit helpless.

"It doesn't matter, who do you care about me!" Zhang Chao waved his hand: "Looks like the seal on your cultivation has been broken, your strength has recovered quite a bit, right? What level of power could he use? Is his transformational stage higher? "

"Early stage Yuan Dan Stage!"

"Oh, oh, amazing. But what was your original cultivation level?" Before it was sealed … "

"I can't say. I can only tell you that you far surpass the Three Realms of Divine Origin!" After Eggy answered, she realized that the words she wanted to say had been carried away by Zhang Chao. She hurriedly shook her head, "No, now is not the time to talk about this.

"Hehehe, I'm not leaving!" Zhang Chao replied very decisively.

"Bastard, are you trying to kill me? "If you don't leave now, it will be too late!" Eggy was truly anxious.

"Alright, then you tell me first, what are you guys poking at here for?" Zhang Chao curled his lips.

"... Alright, after I tell you this, you must leave immediately. But you must promise me too, don't go find War God Academy and cause trouble, and ruin my plans! " Eggy said solemnly after a moment of silence.

"Mm, you tell me first, then I'll decide whether or not I agree to your request!" Zhang Chao still acted like he was messing around.

Eggy was going crazy, this Zhang Chao was too infuriating.

He kept regretting his decision to go crazy and eat that stupid Yin Yang Dual Polarity Pill, and no matter who it was, they would have been fine. But it just so happened that Zhang Chao, the unlucky star, had actually come running here?

It seemed like nothing good had happened to her ever since she met him!

This is a long story. Some things I can tell you, some things I can't. Some things I can't. Eggy forcefully suppressed the anger in her heart, then slowly told Zhang Chao the whole story …
