Chapter 216: Houtu arrives at the Sea of Blood; the Asura King
As soon as these words came out, the originally nervous Asuras couldn't help but be stunned.
They didn't know why Lin Fan was so confident, but looking at his determined expression, the group of Asuras breathed a sigh of relief.
If it wasn't an enemy, they didn't need to be on guard, nor did they need to prepare for a life-and-death struggle.
However, although they believed Lin Fan's judgment, the surrounding Asuras didn't dare to relax. After looking at each other, some quickly returned to the Sea of Blood to report the information.
Under such circumstances, time flew by, and before long, Houtu's figure approached the Sea of Blood.
At the same time, the Asura Clan also knew that a Quasi-Saint was approaching from the outside.
For a time, the Asura King and the Asura Saintess directly led the male and female Asuras under their command to the area where Lin Fan and the others were.
Before long, Houtu's figure completely appeared.
"It's Houtu Zuwu!"
"Why did the Ancestral Witch come to this place?"
"She is an Ancestral Witch, not a cultivator, so she shouldn't be here to find trouble with us."
"..."
Seeing Houtu's figure, the Asuras present breathed a sigh of relief, and then their hearts were full of doubt and confusion.
After all, the appearance of the latter was indeed surprising. The situation of the Wu Clan in the Great Desolation at the current stage was not good.
The death of two Ancestral Witches directly announced the shaking of the Wu Clan's status as overlord.
It was precisely because Xuangui advanced to a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal that the Demon Clan did not act rashly; otherwise, the third Lich War would definitely have started, and it would be unknown who would win or lose.
"Greetings, Houtu Zuwu!"
"Greetings, Houtu Zuwu!"
Doubt was doubt, but the Asuras present didn't dare to be negligent, quickly walking up and bowing in salute.
Including Lin Fan, who walked up and saluted; no matter what, the Great Desolation is still a place where the strong are respected.
Houtu Zuwu is a Quasi-Saint, and her combat power far exceeds that of the vast majority of Quasi-Saint powerhouses; this is not something they can defy or neglect.
"Hmm—"
Nodding, Houtu glanced at the Asuras present, then suddenly realized and muttered: "I have arrived at the Sea of Blood? No wonder there are so many resentful spirits and remnant souls here."
"In the Great Desolation, the Sea of Blood is the filthiest place; it is inevitable that these things gather here."
Apparently, Houtu's arrival was unconscious.
The deaths of Zhurong and Gonggong made Houtu feel that the future of the Wu Clan was extremely unstable, and even extremely dangerous.
Precisely because of this, she traveled to find a way to break the situation and find a way to save the Wu Clan.
Unexpectedly, she arrived at the Sea of Blood without knowing it, and at this moment, standing outside the Sea of Blood, she already felt her heart surging, as if some opportunity was waiting for her within it.
Thinking of this, Houtu immediately said: "I have no malice in coming here this time, but I feel that there is something in the Sea of Blood that has an affinity with me. Please report to Fellow Daoist Minghe that I, Houtu, am visiting!"
"This—"
Hearing this, the Asura King and the Asura Saintess hesitated.
They all knew Minghe Laozu's situation; he was still in seclusion, and they didn't dare to disturb him.
If they ruined Minghe Laozu's affairs, they would be sinners of the Asura Clan and the Asura Sect.
"By the way."
Suddenly, the Asura King seemed to think of something, suddenly turned his head to look at where Lin Fan was, and stepped forward: "Senior Houtu, we cannot agree to this matter; the Old Ancestor is still in seclusion and no one is allowed to disturb him."
"However, the Old Ancestor said before going into seclusion that Fellow Daoist Lin Fan's existence represents his existence. If you have anything, you can tell Fellow Daoist Lin Fan!"
As soon as these words came out, the Asuras present looked at the Asura King strangely.
Including the Asura Saintess, and Houtu was no exception.
After all, the Asura King's words were indeed misleading, making people think that Lin Fan had become the first person under Minghe Laozu in the Sea of Blood range.
Although it was not wrong, Lin Fan did not belong to the Asura Clan or the Asura Sect, and it was impossible to say that he could mobilize or dominate the Asura tribesmen.
Now that the Asura King pushed Lin Fan out, no matter how you look at it, it was a bit of shirking responsibility, or even perfunctory to Houtu.
Houtu naturally felt the Asura King's perfunctoriness.
However, she was not a murderous person, and she didn't intend to argue with the Asura King. Instead, she turned her head to look at Lin Fan and asked curiously: "Little Friend Lin Fan, are the words of this Asura true?"
She knew Lin Fan's situation.
A disciple of Tongtian Jiaozhu, and Minghe Laozu also valued him quite a bit.
Although there was a transaction between Tongtian Jiaozhu and Minghe Laozu, the person who benefited the most was undoubtedly Lin Fan, a disciple-generation existence.
Since the Asura King pushed the matter to Lin Fan, she naturally went down the slope, and it just so happened that she was relatively familiar with Lin Fan.
"This—"
Opening his mouth, Lin Fan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
He never expected the Asura King to play this hand on him. Others didn't know, but how could Lin Fan not know what Houtu's opportunity was?
That is to transform into reincarnation with her body.
But if she acted directly, it would inevitably stir up the Sea of Blood, and it might affect Minghe Laozu in seclusion, which was not a good thing.
However, things had reached this point, and Lin Fan couldn't say he would refuse directly.
After pondering slightly, Lin Fan walked up and saluted: "Senior Houtu, this matter is indeed the case!"
"Senior Minghe gave me his identity token before going into seclusion. If it is a general matter, I can indeed handle it, but if it is a major event, I still need to wait for Senior Minghe to come out of seclusion before making a decision."
Hearing this, Houtu smiled.
Although Lin Fan didn't agree immediately, he didn't refuse directly either.
Thinking of this, Houtu said directly: "In that case, I won't keep you in suspense. I want to enter the Sea of Blood to travel."
"However, you can rest assured that I will not mess around in the Sea of Blood, and I will not do anything bad."
"If you are not at ease, Little Friend Lin Fan can go with me. Of course, the two leading Asuras over there can also act together!"
Hearing this, Lin Fan was overjoyed.
Houtu's arrival gave him hope for implementing his plan, but the possibility of being alone with her was very low.
But now that Houtu took the initiative to mention it, he could take the opportunity to agree to go with Houtu.
In this way, he could guide Houtu to do something in the matter of transforming into reincarnation with her body. If Houtu's physical body did not completely dissolve when she transformed into reincarnation, and then cooperated with the merit primordial spirit, what level would her cultivation and combat power reach?
If there were no such scruples and shackles, once the Earthly Dao descended and combined with Houtu, could her strength reach Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal? Or at the very least, could it reach the level of Dao Ancestor Hongjun?
Once an uncontrollable Earthly Dao is born, what will the Heavenly Dao do? ===== CHAPTER 217 =====
