Yue Changfeng saw that Lu Qingshuang wouldn't listen to him and felt a bit embarrassed. At this moment, another young man suddenly appeared, ignoring all of them, which immediately made him furious.
Yue Changfeng's warhorse slanted sideways, his spear blocking the way, blocking the young man's path. Seeing Yue Changfeng in such a state, Lu Qingshuang immediately felt a wave of helplessness.
Yue Changfeng ended up like this, thanks in part to Tumeng, but it was also his nature. Sealed for so long, his mind was about to break.
This young man looked weak, but he could stand before everyone without arousing their senses. Even if you imagined it, it was clear his strength was definitely extraordinary.
He has no grudge against you, so why are you stopping him? Isn't this just being stuffed and full?
The young man was focused on playing with the dominoes when he was suddenly stopped. His hand trembled, and the dominoes fell to the ground.
"Click...
The
dominoes were long strips, six in total. When they landed, they lined up neatly in a row.
Suddenly blocked by someone, a look of anger appeared on the young man's face. However, when he saw the shape of the dominoes on the ground, he was stunned:
"Dragon swallowing golden python, a sign of self-destruction and betrayal—extremely ominous!"
"Whoosh!"
The strong warriors of
the Golden Armored Knights completely ignored the boy's muttering. Seeing Yue Changfeng intervene to block their path, the formation immediately scattered, forming a massive encirclement that surrounded the youth at the center.
"Kid, why are you sneaking close to my Golden Armored Knights? Confess and confess yourself, or don't bring trouble upon yourself." A core expert from the Golden Armored Knights shouted sternly.
At this moment, the appearance of this strange man was just the right opportunity to draw everyone's attention and use him to divert the conflict between Lu Qingshuang and Tumeng.
"Don't worry about my intentions. You should focus on worrying about yourselves." The young man slowly picked up the dominoes on the ground, blew off the dust from them, and spoke calmly.
"Young man, is this divination? Did you keep divining all the way to target us?"
Lu Qingshuang saw that this young man was quite unusual. For the safety of the Golden Armor Knights, she had no choice but to temporarily set aside her grudge with Tumeng. She put away her short sword and approached the young man, speaking kindly.
Lu Qingshuang saw that the young man's eyes were sharply contrasted with his black and white, as bright as a mirror. In front of him, everything in her heart was reflected, and she couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
The young man glanced at Lu Qingshuang, slightly surprised, and said, "That's strange, you're not inside the elephant."
"Kid, don't say things that make people hard to understand. Hurry up and tell us, what's your purpose in approaching us?" A trusted subordinate of Tu Meng couldn't help but shout.
This man was very perceptive. Seeing Lu Qingshuang being polite with the youth, he insisted on being unpolite and used this method to show his stance.
The young man didn't even glance at the man and said to Lu Qingshuang, "All along the way, I was trying to deduce the karma between me and someone, but I just couldn't make sense of anything.
Just now, you stopped me, and the dominoes fell to the ground and formed elephants. This elephant is the result of your cause, and it has nothing to do with me."
Lu Qingshuang was startled and hurriedly asked, "What is the so-called 'dragon swallowing golden python' and 'forgetting righteousness and self-devouring'? What is the explanation?"
The young man looked at Lu Qingshuang and asked, "Do you have any Heavenly Blood Crystal Stones on you?"
"Heavenly Blood Crystal Stone?" Lu Qingshuang was taken aback.
"I have one."
At
that moment, a strong member of the Golden Armored Knights stepped forward, holding a palm-sized blood-red crystal.
"Give it to me!" The young man said.
"For you? Why?" The man couldn't help but sneer.
"Jie Xiang needs money. If you don't want it, that's fine. Step aside, I'm leaving." The young man said calmly.
This Heavenly Blood Crystal Stone was extremely precious. He had obtained it by accident while in the Heavenly Vein Profound Realm. How could he possibly give it away so casually? The man was about to mock him, but Tu Meng gave him a meaningful look.
The meaning was clear: give him the item, wait until he finishes speaking, then take him down and get the item back.
"Smack!"
The young man reached out to catch the flying Heavenly Blood Crystal Stone, pocketed it, and said:
"The dragon swallows the golden python. According to the simplest divination sign, it means the dragon devours its own descendants.
The golden python, after receiving the grace of a true dragon, uses dragon blood to remove its dross and produces golden scales, giving rise to sacred energy. From then on, the golden python became the most honored species among pythons.
But the golden python was greedy by nature and believed the dragon gave it too little power and should be given more power so it wouldn't have to cultivate arduously and could directly transform into a dragon and rebel.
This is what is called self-devouring by forgetting righteousness. Forgetting righteousness means being ungrateful, and self-biting is reaping what you sow.
'Forget Righteousness and Devour One' is concise and needs no further explanation. As for the Dragon Swallowing Golden Python, 'dragon' can be interpreted as the dragon clan, or by extension, the surname Long, or someone who cultivates dragon divine powers.
As for the golden python, it's the same. You could compare it to the python clan, or to a body covered in golden scales, repaying kindness with ingratitude...
"Shut up..."
Yue Changfeng heard this, his sword-like brows furrowed, his eyes nearly blazing. This wasn't divination—was this clearly an insult?
"Damn thing, tell me, what exactly is your relationship with Long Chen?" Tu Meng's face darkened with anger, gritting his teeth as he spoke.
"Long Chen? Could it be the big guy who mentioned Brother Long? That person I clearly don't know, yet who can unsettle me but can't deduce the cause and effect?"
The young man was taken aback and muttered to himself.
Lu Qingshuang looked at the young man, her heart filled with shock. She even suspected that this young man knew Long Chen and was deliberately coming to humiliate them.
However, the matter between Long Chen and her should not be known in such detail by outsiders. Besides, based on what she knew about Long Chen, he was not the type to show off everything. Even if they knew each other, Long Chen might not tell him.
Most importantly, the so-called ingratitude had just happened—how could this young man possibly know?
Moreover, looking at this young man, his eyes were clear, unlike any treacherous person, and there was no teasing. Could this really be his own divination? If it were true, it would be terrifying.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a powerful figure pointed a spear at the youth's throat and shouted fiercely:
"If you don't want to die, summon him quickly!"
Runes flickered on the spear, and the sharp tip radiated a chilling killing intent, less than three inches from the young man's throat.
The young man was pointed at the spear, frowned, slowly looked toward its owner, and said coldly:
"Heaven gives you life. You shouldn't have died by my hand, but you're making me uncomfortable. Fine, I'm not charging you, but I'll change your fate!"
"Watch out!"
Suddenly, Yue Changfeng cried out in alarm. His aura had been locked onto the young man, but in an instant, the youth vanished from his lock—a situation Yue Changfeng had never encountered before.
"Pfft!"
A streak of white light pierced through the man's brow, flying out of the back of his head, leaving behind a rain of blood, instantly severing all life force.
