Chapter 569 (They're All Pitiful)
The Death Assassin had no choice but to draw his sword and attack.
"I'm dodging~"
"I'm dodging again~"
"You can't hit me~"
"Ouch~ This is the new clothes that Meng Meng gave me. You bastard!"
"Stop, stop, stop. I surrender, big brother... don't mess around... let's talk. Actually, I came to chat with you today."
"Ji Ji Ji…"
Imperial Translator: "There's nothing to talk about. I can't kill you, so I'll just make you suffer until you die. Then I can go back and report."
Seeing that the skeleton wasn't attacking, Long Aotian sighed lightly and said, "This place is as desolate as a bird shitting on it. There's no one to talk to except for Meng Meng."
"Ji Ji Ji…"
Imperial Translator: "At least you have a woman with you. I have nothing!"
Long Aotian also felt that the skeleton was not here to kill him, but to trap him here. Therefore, he wasn't too afraid. He sat on a rock, with his hands behind him, looking up at the stars.
"I have good news for you. I'm going to be a dad," Long Aotian said softly.
The Death Assassin stood by silently.
"Oh, I haven't even figured out what to name the child yet. The name that Meng Meng came up with is too girly. I think it should be a more imposing name."
"Skeleton, what do you think is a more imposing name? Oh, right, you can't speak."
"By the way, at least I have Meng Meng with me. You have no one, so you're even more pitiful than me."
"Today is also the first day of the lunar new year. How about coming to my place for some food? I still have some chicken legs. What do you say?"
When Long Aotian heard no movement behind him, he turned around and saw no trace of the Death Assassin.
Deeply sighing, Long Aotian turned and walked back.
The death assassin not far away watched as Long Autian's figure disappeared, then slowly sat down, leaning against a big tree and gazing up at the endless starry sky. 'When will it end?' he sighed. 'I really miss the old days.'
Back in the small cabin, Long Aotian shook his head. "Aotian, is the assassin not coming?" Meng Meng asked.
"He's probably feeling embarrassed," Aotian replied.
"He's so pitiful," Meng Meng nodded. "He's been guarding you for more than half a year, all alone with no one to talk to."
"Yeah, forget about him," Aotian said. "Let's go to bed." His mindset had indeed changed a lot; he was no longer restless and had become down-to-earth. The idea of having multiple wives and concubines disappeared with the birth of his child. This was the true meaning of his life.
If Xiao Yi had Aotian's mindset, he wouldn't have died so miserably. Aotian was the real winner of life, with a wife, child, and the Death Assassin as a sparring partner.
But if he wanted to make a name for himself, he had to defeat the Death Assassin. Aotian was already impressive for doing so.
Meanwhile, in the capital of Yuan Tian, two ordinary-looking men were walking along the gloomy streets. Some shops were still open, but they were covered in dust. Months ago, this was a bustling street, but now it has become like this.
"Manager Xu, where have all these people gone?" A man named Wang Hong walked beside Xu Shen, the chief manager of the Lingdu Palace.
Xu Shen surveyed the area silently, his expression grave. The battle should have taken place outside the city, but the terrain outside was unrecognizable. This was the work of a very powerful person.
Seeing that Xu Shen didn't say anything, Wang Hong spoke again. "Even if they died, they should have left bloodstains. Look, even the teacup is still here. Did they just evaporate?"
In fact, the two had been in the capital for several days, gathering evidence, but they had found nothing. It seemed that all evidence had been wiped clean.
"If we don't bring back any evidence this time, we'll have to answer to the Emperor Ling!" Xu Shen sighed. The Emperor had given them an order to clear up the matter.
"I wish we had a witness," Wang Hong said. "These people are so cruel, killing and covering up everything!"
"It's truly despicable," Xu Shen nodded in agreement.
"By the way, Manager Xu, I found something strange in the past few days."
"What is it?"
"Please come with me, Manager Xu."
The two flew up to the sky and headed towards the outskirts of the city.
"Director Xu, look at the fire burn marks coming from the horizon." Wang Hong pointed to the distance and said.
"Didn't we discuss this already? It's the Fiery Nether Dragon that was summoned." Xu Shen said, puzzled.
"Yes, it's definitely the Fiery Nether Dragon, but Director Xu, look at the marks. It's probably not just one that came!" Wang Hong said in a low voice.
"Not just one? What evidence do you have?" Xu Shen asked.
"Director Xu, look below. Although there are many cracks, take a close look at the claw marks!"
Xu Shen's gaze narrowed and he flew down with Wang Hong.
"What is it?" Xu Shen frowned, puzzled.
"Wang Hong said in a low voice, "Director Xu, I'm also puzzled. The standing posture of the Fiery Nether Dragon is really strange. Judging from the angle and quantity of the claw marks, there are a total of three, but..."
"But they seem to be gathered together," Xu Shen added.
Wang Hong nodded.
So the question is, why did three Fiery Nether Dragons gather together?
"Director Xu, this Fiery Nether Dragon has a big background. It's an ancient giant beast that even the supremes couldn't handle. Let alone the gods in this small place. The strange thing is, the Fiery Nether Dragons seem to be just standing here and not participating in the battle." Wang Hong was very frustrated. He had been trying to figure it out for the past few days.
"Whoever can control three Fiery Nether Dragons must be extremely powerful! As for why the Fiery Nether Dragons didn't participate in the battle, it was probably just to intimidate. But as for why they gathered together, I really don't know." Xu Shen shook his head. This question was too difficult to think about.
"Director Xu, this overlord is probably very powerful. We should immediately go back and report to the Emperor. We can't provoke him. Three Fiery Nether Dragons could easily destroy the entire Ling city! Unless more than ten overlords come together to suppress them." Wang Hong said.
Xu Shen fell into deep thought. All he could do now was to tell the Emperor that this overlord was very powerful and could even summon Fiery Nether Dragons. But who exactly was this overlord with such great power?
Suddenly, a "drip" sound rang out.
Xu Shen took out the jade slip and looked at it, his face full of surprise and even fear.
"Director Xu, what's going on?" Wang Hong saw the expression on Director Xu's face and knew that something big had happened.
Xu Shen put away the jade slip and said in a low voice, "The overlord Fa Lian has been killed! His 'Realm of No Falsehood' was also burned by a fire, and it was the 'Meteor Day Sky Fire'!"
"Meteor Day Sky Fire? Isn't that the ultimate move of the overlord Yuanyang?" Wang Hong was also stunned. 'The overlord Yuanyang killed the Supreme Falian? Oh my god! How is that possible!'
