Chapter 388: The Diren Tribe Gathers
At this moment, inside the Beihai Heart, Chen Jingchou and Taba Yu'er, just as in the original story, were locked up together with Ran Weng by the Queen of the Diren Tribe.
Seeing Chen Jingchou shouting there, claiming to be some Earth Emperor, Ran Weng laughed loudly:
"With you like this, you are still the Earth Emperor of this generation!
Compared to the previous Earth Emperor, you are simply worlds apart.
And the current master of the Xuanyuan Sword, Yuwen Tuo, also looks much more outstanding than you; why would the status of Earth Emperor fall upon you!"
Hearing Ran Weng mention Yuwen Tuo, Chen Jingchou immediately stopped shouting. He had originally not taken Ran Weng seriously, but now that he heard Ran Weng mention Yuwen Tuo, he hurried to Ran Weng's side.
Because before being locked in, the Queen of the Diren Tribe had said that Ran Weng had already been imprisoned by her for a thousand years.
Logically speaking, how could Ran Weng, who had been imprisoned for a thousand years, know about Yuwen Tuo? This was not scientific.
Thus, Chen Jingchou voiced his doubts:
"Ran Weng, didn't I hear that you were imprisoned by the Queen of the Diren Tribe for a thousand years?
How do you know Yuwen Tuo?"
Ran Weng laughed:
"Before the two of you came to the North Sea, Yuwen Tuo had already been here.
He came and went as he pleased in the Diren Tribe, and even took a prehistoric giant beast as his underling.
Moreover, this descendant of the Xuanyuan Huangdi cares for the world and possesses the demeanor of an emperor, just like the Xuanyuan Huangdi of the past.
This is the Earth Emperor I know; looking at you, where is there any aura of an Earth Emperor?"
Chen Jingchou and Taba Yu'er looked at each other. They did not expect that Yuwen Tuo, who had not appeared for a long time, had actually come to the North Sea. It seemed Yuwen Tuo had also come to snatch the Kongtong Seal.
For the sake of Jianchi and the common people of the world, they could not let Yuwen Tuo obtain the Kongtong Seal.
Chen Jingchou wanted to confirm Yuwen Tuo's identity with Ran Weng again, after all, Ran Weng had not met Yuwen Tuo before.
Chen Jingchou spoke up:
"Ran Weng, you keep saying that Yuwen Tuo has the demeanor of an emperor, so tell me how he has the demeanor of an emperor."
Ran Weng laughed:
"Yuwen Tuo wears the Golden Battle Armor, and his whole person is heroic and extraordinary, shining even more brilliantly with the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand.
If even he doesn't have the demeanor of an emperor, then I really can't think of anyone who has it more than him."
Chen Jingchou and Taba Yu'er exchanged glances, both confirming Yuwen Tuo's identity.
After all, the Golden Armor and the Xuanyuan Sword were already synonymous with Yuwen Tuo; it seemed Yuwen Tuo had indeed arrived at the Beihai Heart.
But they had not seen this Yuwen Tuo; where had Yuwen Tuo gone?
Could he be doing something bad in the shadows!
Could the Queen of the Diren Tribe be deceived by him!
Thinking of this, Chen Jingchou felt terrified; he had to stop Yuwen Tuo as soon as possible and absolutely could not let Yuwen Tuo get the Kongtong Seal.
Chen Jingchou spoke up:
"Ran Weng, then where is Yuwen Tuo?
Why haven't I seen him after being here for so long?
Did Yuwen Tuo already get the Kongtong Seal from the Queen of the Diren Tribe and then slip away?"
Ran Weng rolled his eyes at Chen Jingchou and said:
"If you don't know what the Kongtong Seal means to the Diren Tribe, then don't talk nonsense.
Yuwen Tuo came here this time to find me!
Recently, the Demon Realm has been staging a comeback, and Yuwen Tuo said he felt powerless to deal with the Demon Realm alone, so he came to find me, hoping I could tell him the location of Tianwai Village.
He wants to go to Tianwai Village to find the guardian there, Guyue Xianren, and conspire to do great things together with Guyue Xianren.
You will never understand the philosophy of an emperor like Yuwen Tuo."
After Ran Weng finished speaking, his face wore an expression of extreme admiration for Yuwen Tuo.
After listening, Chen Jingchou was incredulous. Was the person Ran Weng spoke of the despicable, shameless, and cruel Yuwen Tuo in his memory?
Chen Jingchou was now certain that Yuwen Tuo must be lying to Ran Weng and that Yuwen Tuo must have ulterior motives.
Perhaps Yuwen Tuo had long since become a lackey of the Demon Realm; perhaps his trip to Tianwai Village this time was to plot against Guyue Xianren and then conspire with the Demon Realm to seize the Human Realm.
Thinking of this, Chen Jingchou's face turned pale. If Yuwen Tuo's treacherous plot succeeded, then the Human Realm would be finished.
Chen Jingchou grabbed Ran Weng's hand and said:
"Ran Weng, listen to me.
Yuwen Tuo is not a good person. Eighteen years ago, the Northern Zhou Yuwen Imperial Clan was wiped out, and Yuwen Tuo recognized the thief as his father and became a lackey of the Sui Dynasty.
For these eighteen years, Yuwen Tuo has relied on the Xuanyuan Sword to commit all kinds of evil, and his hands are stained with the blood of many innocent people.
Taba Yu'er beside me, her father the Khan also died because of Yuwen Tuo.
Ran Weng, it is not certain that Yuwen Tuo has not already become a lackey of the Demon Realm.
His purpose in going to Tianwai Village should be to plot against Guyue Xianren and then conspire with the Demon Realm to seize the Human Realm.
Ran Weng, you must believe me.
Tell me the address of Tianwai Village quickly; if we are fast enough, we might still be able to stop Yuwen Tuo.
If we are a step late, then everything will be too late."
Ran Weng looked at the anxious Chen Jingchou, widened his eyes, and said:
"You brat, is everything you said true?
This Yuwen Tuo looks extremely righteous, not at all like the kind you described!
Did you get it wrong? I think Yuwen Tuo is quite good."
Seeing that Ran Weng did not believe them, Taba Yu'er spoke up:
"Immortal, Jing Chou is right."
"Yuwen Tuo is indeed a butcher; our Taba was originally a prosperous and flourishing nation."
"My father the Khan was diligent in his administration and loved his people; under his leadership, Taba became increasingly strong and prosperous."
"But the arrival of Yuwen Tuo changed all of this."
"He severely wounded my father, and because of this, my father left us."
"Taba has been unable to recover ever since; it can be said that all of this is because of Yuwen Tuo."
"Immortal, Yuwen Tuo is not a good person; you must absolutely not trust him."
Seeing Taba Yu'er's expression, Ran Weng finally believed the words of the two of them.
Ran Weng spoke in a dejected manner:
"If what you say is true, then everything is already too late."
"Your strength is too weak; you are no match for Yuwen Tuo."
"If we rush to Tianwai Village now, it will already be too late."
"However, based on my understanding of that fellow Guyue, he is not so easily deceived."
"The biggest problem now is how we can escape from this cage."
After finishing, Ran Weng suddenly realized something and shouted toward the outside:
"Someone come here, quickly call your Queen."
"Tell your Queen that Immortal Guyue has met with trouble, and tell her to come quickly."
The Diren Tribe guards outside, hearing Ran Weng's shout, dared not be negligent and immediately ran into the palace.
The Diren Tribe Queen inside the palace saw the guards running in in a panic and shouted:
"Why are you running in here in such a panic instead of watching the three people in the cell properly?"
The guard said:
"Queen, that Ran Weng says Immortal Guyue is in danger and asks you to go to the cell quickly."
Upon hearing this, the Diren Tribe Queen's expression changed drastically; without replying to the guard, she rushed toward the cell.
The Diren Tribe Queen ran to the cell, opened the cage, and walked in front of Ran Weng.
The Diren Tribe Queen said:
"Ran Weng, you just said Guyue is in danger?"
"What is going on? What kind of trouble could he be in?"
Ran Weng said:
"You remember that Yuwen Tuo who came earlier, right? He asked me for Guyue's location and went to find Guyue."
"Just now, these two people said that Yuwen Tuo is a lackey of the Demon Realm and that he went to find Guyue to plot against him with the Demon Realm."
"That is why I called you here; you are the only one who can save Guyue now."
After hearing this, the Diren Tribe Queen stared fixedly at Ran Weng, seemingly wanting to confirm whether what Ran Weng said was true or false.
The Diren Tribe Queen saw only anxiety in Ran Weng's eyes, and she knew that Ran Weng was not lying to her.
The Diren Tribe Queen turned and walked out of the cage; seeing the Diren Tribe Queen leaving, Ran Weng shouted:
"You woman, you claim to love Guyue, yet now that Guyue is in danger, you stand by and watch; I, Ran Weng, have truly misjudged you."
Chen Jingchou and Taba Yu'er slapped their foreheads; how could this Ran Weng not have realized it?
Chen Jingchou pointed at the cell door and said:
"Ran Weng, stop talking, look!"
Seeing the open cell door, Ran Weng finally realized and immediately changed his tone.
"Queen, I have finally not misjudged you."
"Let us quickly assemble our forces to save that fellow Guyue!"
The Diren Tribe Queen said without looking back:
"If you keep talking so much nonsense, Guyue will have already died."
The Diren Tribe Queen walked in front, and Chen Jingchou, Taba Yu'er, and Ran Weng followed her as they rushed out.
The Diren Tribe Queen brought the three to the palace and shouted:
"Notify all tribesmen, assemble quickly, and follow me to save Guyue!"
After the Diren Tribe Queen gave the order, the entire Di Ren Zu Tribe immediately began to assemble at high speed.
After all, Guyue's influence on their Di Ren Zu Tribe was not insignificant, so after hearing that Guyue was in danger, they organized themselves immediately.
Before long, the entire Di Ren Zu Tribe was completely assembled, waiting for the Diren Tribe Queen's command.
At this time, the Diren Tribe Queen had already changed into military attire; the most beautiful woman in the Three Realms looked incredibly heroic after putting on her armor.
Sure enough, those who are beautiful look good in anything.
After all the members of the Di Ren Zu Tribe were assembled, the Diren Tribe Queen shouted:
"Set off!"
Ran Weng and the Diren Tribe Queen walked at the very front, Juhai, Chen Jingchou, and Taba Yu'er followed behind them, and the members of the Di Ren Zu Tribe followed behind everyone.
After leaving the North Sea, Juhai instantly grew to a massive size and carried everyone on his back.
Just as Juhai was about to rise into the sky to rush to Tianwai Village, a giant golden sword fell from above.
Juhai shouted:
"It is my big brother's golden sword; my big brother has returned."
"I told you my big brother is not the kind of person you said he was!"
Chen Jingchou and Taba Yu'er also looked at the giant golden sword with caution; why would Yuwen Tuo rush back, and what did he want to do?
The Queen of the Diren Tribe looked at Ran Weng, wanting to get an answer from him.
Ran Weng spread his hands, indicating that he also did not know what the situation was.
Everyone was looking at the sky, waiting for Yuwen Tuo to come down and give them an answer.
