Chapter 1667: Meeting Gift
Outside the Black Abyss, in the City of Fanluo, inside a grocery store.
"This is what you called foolproof?"
Old Demon Walpole's eyelids drooped, his hands fiddling with a piece of crystal-clear vine.
"My lord, the situation at the time..."
A demon wearing black armor, with wisps of black smoke rising from his body, knelt on one knee, his head lowered.
"I know the Feather Clan people were present at the time."
Walpole waved his hand.
"Thank you for your understanding, Lord Walpole."
The black-smoke demon breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who said I would understand you?" Walpole threw down the vine in his hand, glanced at the black-smoke demon, and continued: "I let you do this matter, originally wanting you to plate it with chrome gold; who knew, you plated yourself with copper. Go down, you make me very disappointed."
"My lord..."
The black-smoke demon's eye circles were red. This feeling of failing others' high expectations was very bad.
"Go down."
Walpole stood up. His little finger fell off, turning into a wisp of black smoke. He had to go to this matter personally.
The Void, Lanlingsente.
"Hahaha, you catalyzed the Soul Vine?"
A man wearing a crown with an extremely handsome appearance was laughing loudly.
"Yes, my lord."
Kneeling in front of the handsome man was a woman with a cold expression who didn't like to laugh.
"I really hope to see the expression of that old goat Walpole now. That is such a refreshing thing."
The handsome man seemed regretful, but in reality, he cared more about another matter.
Black Abyss Shallow Layer, Redemption Highlands, Central Area.
On a cold and hard stone altar, a sturdy man with a bare upper body and animal skin draped over his shoulders sat cross-legged. His muscles were like steel, and the blood vessels seemed to have their own ideas, jumping and twitching at will.
"Hoo—"
The sturdy man let out a long breath. His palm gripped the air, and immediately a Soul Vine poked out from the altar crack, wrapping around his hand.
"This is the power left by the ancestors; outsiders don't even think about taking it away."
The sturdy man tore off the Soul Vine with a *snap*. The severed Soul Vine twisted in his hand like octopus tentacles. After hesitating for a moment, the sturdy man stuffed the living Soul Vine into his mouth.
A few minutes later.
"Woo!!"
A silent and painful roar. When the fresh blood was burned out, it would be replaced by something new.
*Rustle, rustle. *
The grass moved, and a dog head suddenly popped out of the grass. A moment later, Lilith darted out of the grass like a spirit cat, entering a forest after a few leaps.
"What are you two... doing."
Su Xiao, holding a large crossbow, had a cloudy face. He was walking on the road openly; they hadn't even reached the central area yet, and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Lilith had already started acting sneakily.
"Aren't we supposed to infiltrate?"
Lilith, with two leaves stuck on her head, looked at Su Xiao suspiciously.
"This isn't the central area yet; who are you infiltrating for?"
"Then it..."
"Woof."
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang also looked at Lilith suspiciously. He was just playing in the grass; he didn't expect this demon girl to join in.
"..."
Lilith froze for a moment. She suddenly wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"This is about right."
Su Xiao began to set up the crossbow stand. Although this thing was bulky, its range was long.
*Click-clack... *
The crossbow was cocked. Su Xiao began to adjust the angle, then opened the travel bag behind Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and took out a test tube.
This test tube was wrapped with a metal bracket on the outside, and one side was pointed, very much like a crossbow bolt that was thin in the front and thick in the back. In the solution of the test tube, an Apollo was soaking.
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had infiltrated the central area, so he had some understanding of the terrain there. Su Xiao was going to use Apollo to bomb the central area remotely this time.
After adjusting the angle of the crossbow, Su Xiao activated Apollo. 25 seconds was enough for flight.
*Bang! *
The alloy bowstring tightened, and a crossbow-bolt-shaped test tube flew out with a *whoosh*, disappearing from sight in an instant.
Su Xiao bombing the central area with Apollo this time was neither to kill enemies nor to create chaos so that Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang could steal the Ash Bud, but to see what the reaction of the Progenitor faction would be after being attacked, and by the way, to frame Black Marsh.
Su Xiao knew nothing about the Progenitor faction. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang had tried before; he simply couldn't get close to that altar, otherwise, there would be no life.
A rapid whistling sound cut through the sky. Near the altar in the central area, a sturdy man was crawling on the ground. His name was Saint Zha Jia.
Saint Zha Jia was the leader of the Progenitor faction, but this leader was somewhat in name only. By his generation, his family only had him as a direct descendant. As for subordinates, their family's subordinates had never been living people—that is to say, now the entire Progenitor faction had only Saint Zha Jia as a living person.
Saint Zha Jia crawled up from the ground. He felt his body was very strange now—this feeling, as if his various organs had independent thinking.
Although he violated the taboos of his ancestors, there was no other way. He couldn't continue to endure what originally belonged to him being plundered again, so he had to fight to the death.
"This feeling..."
Saint Zha Jia stretched his arms out. Although the feeling in his body was strange, that sense of power was very gratifying.
Just as Saint Zha Jia was intoxicated by his own power, his ears moved, and a signal was transmitted to his brain: something was flying from afar, and it was already impossible to stop it.
Saint Zha Jia's pupils twisted, magnifying things in the distance like a telescope. He saw a crossbow-bolt-shaped test tube fall into the nearby mountain.
"Black Marsh's stinking rat?"
Saint Zha Jia frowned. He couldn't figure out why Black Marsh would take action at this time.
*Dong! *
A loud noise resounded through the Redemption Highlands, and a fireball nearly two kilometers in diameter emerged, like a sun falling into the world.
More than 60% of the residents of the Redemption Highlands saw this scene. They just watched blankly, watching the large fireball that gradually dissipated.
On the altar in the central area, Saint Zha Jia's lips trembled slightly. He seemed to have suffered some blow, staggering back two steps. This man, nearly 2.5 meters tall, actually knelt on the ground with a *thump*, his expression somewhat sluggish.
"Who is it!!"
The roar spread. Saint Zha Jia's roar could be described as exhausted. Thinking about it, the ancestral graves of the Saint Zha Jia family for more than ten generations suddenly exploded on the spot; how could he not be angry?
Edge of the central area.
"Seems a bit off. Black Marsh's weapons are indeed unreliable."
Su Xiao didn't know he had bombed the ancestral graves of the Progenitor faction. Now his goal had been achieved.
"What to do next? Kill our way in?"
Lilith took down the war scythe from her back, full of fighting spirit.
"Go back to sleep."
Su Xiao wouldn't enter the central area now. He had ten Apollos in total; this was just throwing one to test the situation. At the very least, he had to figure out how many strong people the Progenitor faction had. ===== CHAPTER 1668 =====
