Chapter 293: Endless Abyss, Sowing Discord (1)
“Ink Thunder, fly back a little. I want to break this window,” Leng Qingtian said to Ink Thunder after recovering from his shock.
“Yes, Master.” Ink Thunder flew back.
Leng Qingtian gathered his spiritual power in his palm. After forming a spiritual power sphere, he hurled it toward the window.
“Huh? How is this possible?” Leng Qingtian was dumbfounded. The sphere he just released was enough to injure a Spiritual Supremacy, but there was no trace on the window.
“Master, I’ll try.” Ink Thunder immediately launched an attack, but the window remained intact…
Ink Thunder refused to believe this. He directly used his enormous and strong body to slam into the window… again and again. But not even a crack was left on the window.
“Ink Thunder, stop!” With a helpless expression on his face, Leng Qingtian stopped Ink Thunder from hurting himself.
“Master, I’ll try again!” Ink Thunder said stubbornly. He was already very guilty for not saving his master in time, so he definitely couldn’t let his master stay in this godforsaken place.
“Stop wasting your energy.” Suddenly, a mocking voice sounded in their ears.
“Who is it? Come out! Stop pretending to be mysterious!” Leng Qingtian shouted. But he had already guessed that it was likely the person who brought them here.
As soon as Leng Qingtian finished speaking, he saw a flash in front of his eyes, and the place where both he and Ink Thunder were changed…
This place was clearly a palace! No, it should be more luxurious than any imperial palace he had seen. The walls of the entire palace were inlaid with incomparably large night-luminescent pearls, and the pillars of the palace were full of crystals of unknown colors. Even the ground was paved with precious black jade. This… is really too luxurious! Leng Qingtian exclaimed in his mind as he looked at the strange new environment.
After looking around the hall, Leng Qingtian turned his gaze toward the tall dragon throne in the middle of the hall.
A man in white was sitting on the tall silver dragon throne covered with gems of various colors and looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.
The man was incredibly handsome, and his temperament was noble and extraordinary. His beautiful silver eyes were bright, deep, and dazzling like crystals, as if they could suck people in… Moreover, his strength was unfathomable.
“Master, don’t look at his eyes,” Ink Thunder reminded. This man… gave him a very strange feeling!
“Okay.” Leng Qingtian quickly composed himself. Fortunately, Ink Thunder reminded him. He was almost sucked into those incomparably beautiful silver eyes just now.
“Who are you? Why did you capture me?” Leng Qingtian asked the man.
“I’m not human,” the man said with a faint smile.
“Are you a divine beast?” Leng Qingtian guessed.
“I guess so!” the man said nonchalantly. He didn’t know what he was now.
“Why did you capture me?” Leng Qingtian asked again, but he kept guessing in his heart. Could he be that snake?
“I didn’t capture you. You fell into the abyss, and this happens to be my territory, so this is all fate!” the man said like a charlatan. Alas! This is all fate!
“Then why did you bring me here now?” Leng Qingtian asked in bewilderment.
“Would you believe me if I said that I just wanted to have a chat with you?” the man asked.
“I don’t believe you,” Leng Qingtian said honestly. Would he put him in a cell if he wanted to chat with him? How could he treat his guests like this?
“But I really just want to have a chat with you. You can call me Confound,” the man said sincerely.
“Chat? I’ve never seen a host who locked guests in a cell!” Leng Qingtian said mockingly. Who would believe him!
“Didn’t you come out now? Besides, I didn’t lock you in. You fell into it by yourselves.” Confound tried to shift the blame. His handsome face had the words ‘none of my business’ written all over it.
“Coincidentally, you fell into a cell!” Confound added.
“Uhh!” Leng Qingtian was speechless. So it was all their bad luck!
“What do you want to talk about?” Leng Qingtian suddenly changed the topic.
“Let’s talk about your family!” Confound said after some thought. He was very interested in these people.
“Family?” Leng Qingtian immediately became alert when he heard about his family. What exactly did this divine beast want? If he dared to hurt his grandchildren, he wouldn’t let him go even if he had to risk his life!
“Your family… doesn’t seem to care about you? You’ve been here for so long, but no one has come down to look for you.”
“In the desert, an outsider fell into the labyrinth, and your most beloved granddaughter immediately went down to look for him. But you, her biological grandfather, fell into the abyss, and your grandchildren, as well as your friends, actually didn’t come down. It seems that you don’t have a place in their hearts?” Confound said with pity.
“That’s because they believe in my strength and wouldn’t be worried about me,” Leng Qingtian said nonchalantly. Hmph! Trying to sow discord? Dream on! He was a Spiritual Supremacy and had a divine beast by his side. Therefore, even if he was separated from them, his life wouldn’t be in danger. But it had been different for Hu Bin. His life would be gone if he was alone and really encountered danger.
“You really trust them. But take a look at this! After seeing it, you will know what your status is in their hearts!” Confound said with a chuckle.
“Take a look at what?” Leng Qingtian was puzzled. What is this divine beast up to?
While Leng Qingtian pondered, a light screen appeared in front of him. The figures on the screen were Leng Ruoxue and the others…
After a long time, the light screen disappeared, and Leng Qingtian stood there foolishly…
“Master, Master.” Ink Thunder called out softly in Leng Qingtian’s ears. But Leng Qingtian didn’t seem to hear him and didn’t react at all. Seeing this situation, he couldn’t help spinning around anxiously.
