A tomb.

The simple stone tombstone has become mottled due to the erosion of time, and the writing is a bit blurry, but you can still clearly see the words "Yang's remnant soul" engraved on it.

The grave mound was covered with weeds.

There are still vague traces of worship in the past in front of the tomb.

Zhu Yurong stood in front of the tomb, with sad eyes and a look of sadness on her face.

"After Brother Yang escaped, I took the risk to bury the bones of my uncle, aunt, and little sister, but I didn't dare to tell anyone about it, so I had to bury them together.

Over the years, I have come to pay my respects once a year and express my feelings.

I know I can't make the deceased forgive me by doing this, but every time I come over to talk to them, I feel better. "

There is naturally nothing in the tomb.

More than two hundred years have passed since the Yang family was wiped out.

Wanshou Zhenren's parents and younger sister were buried in a hurry without any preservation measures. By now, they had long been integrated with the earth, leaving no bones or residue.

Master Wan Beast didn't know whether what Zhu Yurong said was true or false.

This woman is so terrible.

Even if he becomes the weapon spirit of Blood Sea Banner and has the power of the fourth-level Nascent Soul Lord, he still can't tell which of her words are true and which are false.

He hoped it was false, but was afraid it was true.

He looked at the tombstone with silent eyes and said nothing for a long time.

All he could recall in his mind was the fire that devoured everything, and himself running away in panic like a bereaved dog.

The parents and the little sister's faces were covered with blood, and their eyes were full of panic and fear. They stared at him and opened their mouths to say something to him, but nothing came out.

However, all this was his imagination in a dream.

That night, he actually saw no one.

He only remembered that on the wedding night, the Yang family mansion was suddenly surrounded by people.

An arrogant guy walked in and said that the Yang family was harboring demon cultivators and needed to be searched.

He stepped forward to argue and was slapped into unconsciousness.

When he woke up, he was already outside the city. The elder was so angry that he handed him the last inheritance that the family had packed hastily and told him to run away.

If there is a chance to revive the family and come back for revenge, I will die on the spot.

When he heard the news about the Yang family again, it was revealed that the Yang family had secretly connected with the demon clan, hid the demon cultivators, and resisted the arrest when the monks from the city lord's palace came to investigate. Almost all members of the direct clan were wiped out.

The Yang family's thousand-year foundation was wiped out almost overnight.

By the way, the witness who identified the Yang family's crimes was none other than Zhu Yurong, the bride who had already married the Master Wan Beast at that time.

"Tell me all the truth about that year, and I won't kill you."

Wanshou Zhenren thought he would be sad, but standing in front of his parents' little sister's grave, he suddenly discovered that he had lost the ability to grieve.

Perhaps in the days when he could not sleep day and night, when he was left with only the remnant of his soul, trapped in the soul banner of all beasts and endured the pain of loneliness, he had exhausted all the sorrow and pain.

Zhu Yurong couldn't help but breathe slightly.

She said so much just for this sentence.

Back then, True Lord Chongshan was entrusted by others to target the Yang family, but he did not take action himself.

Therefore, he underestimated the Yang family's thousand-year heritage and allowed Master Wan Beast to escape as an orphan.

She often dreams about this in the middle of the night and is awakened by nightmares.

Or she might be tossing and turning, unable to sleep, just because she was afraid that her brother Yang would one day come back for revenge and let the fire devour her body.

So she had this tomb built and sent people to come every year to pay homage, just in case such a day came to pass, leaving a way out for herself.

Now it seems that her decision was a wise one.

Brother Yang from back then really came back, and he brought back trembling power.

"then……"

Zhu Yurong was very thoughtful, and with only a few adjustments, he was able to tell the full story of what happened that year.

Of course, that's just her perspective.

Back then, she met Yang Ming accidentally and developed a mutual affection. It was fate. She often thanked God for giving her a perfect lover.

But everything changed on the wedding day.

The monks from the City Lord's Mansion broke into Yang's house in the name of arresting demon cultivators and killed everyone on sight. She was so frightened that she tried to run away, but was caught and almost insulted.

Fortunately, someone recognized her identity and saved her innocence and life.

She was caught in front of the man named Qianli Zhenren. She watched the familiar faces fall down one by one, and her whole body trembled with fear.

She thought she would die too, but she didn't.

On the contrary, with the support of the city lord's palace, he became the sole heir of the Yang family as the widow of the Yang family.

Later she found out why the city lord's palace wanted to spare her life.

Because not long after, she gave up the inheritance qualification of Xuanyang Sect Wanling Peak on behalf of the Yang family, and was forcibly taken into the house by Zhenjun Zhongshan, and by the way, she took over the Yang family's thousand-year inheritance.

"...I know it's all my fault. If it weren't for my greed for life and fear of death, and if I hadn't accused the Yang family of crimes, Brother Yang and Uncle Yang wouldn't still suffer infamy after death.

But I was too scared. That is True Lord Chongshan. He is the Lord of Donghua Tiancheng. I really dare not resist him.

If I disobey him, not only will I die, but my family and friends will also die.

I don't want to drag them down.

Later, my family members died one by one, and I should just go with them.

But I still want to wait for Brother Yang to come back.

I practice hard, I try to please True Monarch Chongshan, and I break through to the golden elixir realm, all so that I can live longer.

I know that Brother Yang will definitely come back. I want to live and tell Brother Yang personally that I am actually not that bad.

I don't want to stay in Brother Yang's heart. The last appearance is still ugly. "

Zhu Yurong's eyes were full of tears and she looked at the Wan Beast Master affectionately.

"Even if Brother Yang doesn't kill me, I won't forgive myself.

Being able to see Brother Yang for the last time, Yu Rong's wish has been fulfilled, and there is no regret.

I just hope that if there is reincarnation in the world, I can meet Brother Yang again in the next life and complete the unfinished journey between you and me.

But don’t be so miserable.

Brother Yang, goodbye. "

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yurong's magic power surged in his body, and he cried blood from the corner of his mouth, and he actually cut off his heart.

Her aura was fading little by little, but the infinite affection and nostalgia still remained in the eyes of Zhenwanzhou Zhenren.

Wan Beast Zhenren put his hands behind his back and watched coldly, indifferent to this.

Yu Xian stayed out of the matter and acted as a qualified melon-eater.

There is one thing to say, no matter whether what Zhu Yurong said is true or false, and whether the performance is somewhat genuine or false, this decision is admirable.

He has to study hard.

The ancients said that when three people are walking together, there must be someone who is my teacher. I will not deceive him sincerely.

Finally, Zhu Yurong's last breath was about to disappear.

The real Wanshou still moved.

The sound of gurgling water could be heard in the air, and a blood-colored tassel pointed out from the hand of Master Wan Beast and entered Zhu Yurong's body.

As the weapon spirit of the Blood Sea Banner, a lot of blood essence accumulated in the Blood Sea Banner is under his control.

Zhu Yurong was nourished by this essence, and her weak aura quickly strengthened, and the broken heart and meridians were forcibly connected by the powerful blood.

Gurgling! ! !

As if a bubble had burst, Zhu Yurong gasped suddenly and woke up.

"I'm not dead yet..."

She was confused for a while, then she smiled miserably at Zhenren Wanshou and said:

"Brother Yang, why do you need to save me?"

A cold smile appeared on Zhen Wan Beast's face.

"I said I won't kill you, so you don't have to seek death. A weak woman like you couldn't handle the situation like that back then.

The living do not have to sacrifice for the dead. What you did is excusable. "

Zhu Yurong said with a look of surprise: "Brother Yang, are you willing to forgive me?!"

Zhenren Wanshou couldn't deny it and said: "It doesn't matter whether you forgive me or not. The person who really caused the misfortune to my Yang family is not you, but Zhenjun Zhongshan, the person behind Zhenshan Zhenjun.

If I want revenge, I should seek revenge from them. "

Zhu Yurong said: "Brother Yang, you are right, but True Lord Chongshan is not only powerful in his own right, he is also the Lord of Donghua Tiancheng. He holds a high position of authority. He is also on good terms with many True Lords of Nascent Soul, and he has Xuanyang behind him. Zong as a backer.

If you want to seek revenge from him, you need to think long and hard about it. "

Master Wan Beast said: "You are right. If you want to deal with Master Chongshan, you cannot have a head-on conflict, so I want you to help me once."

Zhu Yurong's pupils shrank slightly, but she still forced a smile and said:

"Brother Yang, as long as I can help you, I won't hesitate to do it even if it costs me my life."

Master Wan Beast shook his head and said: "I don't need your life, as long as you can lure Master Chongshan out and fight him alone, I will have a way to capture him.

Leave the rest to me. "

Zhu Yurong paused for a while, seeming to be thinking about it.

Finally, she nodded seriously: "Brother Yang, don't worry, I will definitely help you lure True Lord Chongshan out."

As she said that, she felt a little confused: "It's just how should I contact you, Brother Yang? After all, I can't lure out True Lord Chongshan whenever I want."

Master Wan Beast threw out a beast-shaped token that seemed to be made of bloody amber.

"You hold it, and as long as you come out, I will feel it, and then I will guide you in the direction."

Zhu Yurong kept the token close to her body.

"Brother Yang, I won't let you down."

"Then go back."

The real way of all beasts.

Zhu Yurong was still reluctant to give up: "Brother Yang, I want to stay with you for a while longer."

"After taking revenge, you have plenty of time."

Wan Beast Zhenren pretended to be indifferent.

Zhu Yurong smiled, as if thinking about the future.

"Well, I listen to Brother Yang."

"By the way, Brother Yang, the two maids I brought back are loyal to me. Please don't hurt their lives. If you are worried, just imprison them. Let them go after revenge." .”

Master Wan Beast said very reasonably: "Since you are sure, it doesn't matter if you let them go."

Hearing this, Zhu Yurong's expression became even more moved and happy.

"Brother Yang, you are so kind to me. When I avenge you, I will definitely make it up to you."

She turned back three times and left.

Wan Beast Zhenren stopped where he was and remained silent for a long time.

Yu Xian looked left and right, and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Do you really believe it?"

Master Wan Beast shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I can't tell. My strength can easily crush her to death, but I can't tell whether her words are true or false, and I can't tell how much affection she still has for me.

Maybe this is a fan of the authorities.

But truth or falsehood, belief or disbelief, are of little significance now. We just have to see whether she can lead out Zhongshan Zhenjun. "

Yu Xian's eyes widened and he said with great dissatisfaction:

"Hey! When did I say that I would accompany you to deal with Zhongshan Zhenjun? We agreed to seek revenge on the woman who harmed you. Don't increase the pressure casually.

Even if you want to do it, you will have to wait for dozens or hundreds of years.

I never fight an uncertain battle. "

Zhenren Wan Beast said rather roguely at this time:

"Didn't you say that your concealment skills are the best in the world? We just stay here to see if it's true or not, and there's no need to start a real fight."

Yu Xian touched his chin and said with a mocking look on his face: "Aren't you afraid that what that woman said is all true? She just wanted to kill you to express her ambition.

If we don't take action then, what if she is killed by the True Monarch of Chongshan? "

Master Wan Beast said calmly: "Then she deserves this fate. I will avenge her in the future."

"Tsk, tsk, don't let your mind be affected by the magic weapon, why are you so cold and heartless?"

Yu Xian crossed his arms and looked like he was watching a good show.

It’s not his woman anyway, he doesn’t care whether she lives or lives.

Master Wan Beast remained silent.

No matter how much he loved that woman in the past, how could his personal sanity be affected by his children's affair?

…

Two months passed in a flash.

Zhu Yurong accompanied a man down to Donghua Tiancheng and flew into the Donghua Plain to the place where he paid homage to the remnant soul of the Yang family.

"Is this right here?"

The man was born with a strong physique, with a strong back and strong waist, and was more than two meters tall. Zhu Yurong was already tall, but standing next to him, she still looked like a little bird.

And the man is Zhongshan Zhenjun, a fourth-level body cultivator who has honed his body to the extreme.

He looked at the clean tomb with a sneer on his face.

"A lonely wild ghost dares to act recklessly."

He punched down.

The entire tomb exploded directly, the soil rolled over, and a big pit exploded, but there was nothing there, only fresh soil.

Zhu Yurong's expression changed, and she secretly took out a beast-shaped token, secretly thinking that this token was clearly guiding her to meet here, so why would Brother Yang sit back and watch his parents' tombs be destroyed.

Right now.

She felt the token in her palm was hot, and it actually penetrated into her arm, causing a stinging pain.

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Yurong's strangeness attracted the attention of Zhongshan Zhenjun. He grabbed her arm and tore open her sleeve arbitrarily, revealing a beast-shaped tattoo that looked like a flying tiger, a lion but not a lion.

"Bitch, what is this?!"

True Lord Chongshan slapped Zhu Yurong on the face.

Her whole body was thrown away and fell heavily to the ground.

"Lord Zhenjun, this is just an ordinary tattoo."

She explained with an aggrieved look.

"What is your purpose in trying so hard to lure this city lord out?"

True Lord Chongshan in mid-air stared at Zhu Yurong on the ground and said:

"If you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for not remembering the past feelings."

Zhu Yurong bit her lips lightly, half of her face was already swollen, she took a deep breath and seemed to abandon all worries.

"Lord Zhenjun! I still remember that you took me as your concubine and destroyed the entire Yang family. Today, the escaped souls will demand their lives from you. Brother Yang, I have already lured them to you, so please come out. Bar!"

"Bitch, how dare you betray me!"

Zhenjun Chongshan punched Zhu Yurong in the chest, and a burst of energy exploded from behind her, probably breaking her sternum.

Zhu Yurong fell heavily to the ground again.

But there was no movement.

Zhongshan Zhenjun looked amused:

"Haha! This city lord is authorized by the Xuanyang Sect, the lord of Donghua Tiancheng, and sits on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. How can a rat who could only live in the world in the past be compared with this city lord.

You are going to die now, where are his people?

You almost fooled this city lord, but now this city lord is standing here, where is your brother Yang? "

boom!

Another punch.

This time, a big hole opened in the right half of Zhu Yurong's chest, blood surged out, and her face turned pale at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.

"Brother Yang, where are you?"

Zhu Yurong raised her arm with difficulty. The animal-shaped tattoo on it was still hot, which seemed to indicate that her brother Yang was still nearby.

Suddenly, the tattoo's light dimmed, leaving only a vague mark.

Zhu Yurong's eyes changed suddenly.

"Brother Yang, have you abandoned Yurong?"

True Lord Chongshan shook his head and said: "It seems that you have been deceived, and the price is your life."

He raised his hand and punched down.

Powerful power gathered under him, and the space seemed to be frozen.

Before the punch was released, Zhu Yurong's long hair was blown by the strong energy, adding a sad and beautiful look to her face.

Peng!

An overwhelming power fell.

Zhu Yurong's pores suddenly oozed blood. If he met the punch head-on, it would probably turn into blood foam and disperse in an instant.

"Okay, it seems Yurong has also been teased."

A sigh came, and an afterimage that was identical to Zhongshan Zhenjun stood in front of the fist. The powerful force that could split mountains and crack earth hit his body, but it only caused a few ripples.

Zhongshan Zhenjun, who was in the air, quickly fell down and half-knelt in front of the afterimage.

"Lord City Lord."

Looking at Zhongshan Zhenjun just now, a layer of skin fell off his body, as if peeled off, revealing a young man with sharp eyebrows and eyes, like a fox.

This person is none other than the general under True Lord Chongshan, Master Qianli, who is good at the art of transformation. He has thousands of faces, and even True Lord Yuanying cannot easily see through them.

Because this is the magical power of illusion inherited from the Nine-tailed Fox clan.

This Qianli Zhenren is a half-demon with the blood of the nine-tailed fox.

"Get up."

True Lord Chongshan raised his hand and fed Zhu Yurong another pill that exuded powerful vitality.

"Madam, I was so offended just now."

Qianli Zhenren offered his hand to Zhu Yurong, who quickly recovered, and apologized.

Zhu Yurong forced a smile: "It has nothing to do with you, everything is done according to the plan."

"Lord Zhenjun, I wonder if you have found any trace of Yang Ming?"

True Lord Chongshan shook his head and said: "It seems that this was a deliberate design by him. He wanted you to die at the hands of my city lord to avenge you for the past."

"It's a pity that we couldn't lure him out. According to what you said, he seems to have broken through the Nascent Soul realm, and he also has a friend who is in the Nascent Soul realm. It's really hard to feel at ease with these two people wandering away."

Zhu Yurong also sighed and said: "I didn't expect that he didn't believe me. Then why did he let me go after he worked so hard to get me out?"

She thought she had gained enough trust by pretending to die in order to survive.

Unexpectedly, she was acting, and her brother Yang was no less generous.

We haven’t seen each other for many years, so we really can’t look at people with old eyes.

Zhenjun Chongshan pointed at Zhu Yurong’s arm and said:

"Because you have seen his strength and now you have failed to capture him, the mark he left on you will become your nightmare for the rest of your life."

Zhu Yurong's expression changed slightly, but she still pretended to be tough:

"At worst, I will stay with Lord True Lord from now on. I want to see if he has the courage to appear in front of Lord True Lord."

True Lord Chongshan grabbed Zhu Yurong's arm, and with a thought, the tyrannical blood energy rushed into the mark.

boom!

Zhongshan Zhenjun felt that the world was shaking slightly, and he only saw an endless sea of ​​blood rolling, as if it was about to submerge the world.

That was when he used the mark as a medium to face the power of the real beasts through the air.

"What a strong spirit, what a clever restraint."

True Lord Chongshan put down Zhu Yurong's arm.

"This mark is quite mysterious. Let me, the city lord, study it before making a final conclusion."

Zhu Yurong didn't force him. She knew that Zhongshan Zhenjun had many things to do every day. If she kept pursuing him, she would get bored.

But she already hated her brother Yang to death.

Why would someone who has been dead for so many years come out and disturb her good mood?

Now that she has a distinguished status, she naturally wants to stand in the same camp as Zhongshan Zhenjun.

Even if her plan succeeds and Yang Ming ignores the past suspicions, if she murders the lord of Tiancheng, she will definitely be hunted by the Xuanyang Sect. Will she have to live in exile from now on?

She didn't want to.

She doesn't have the appearance of a true king. She has less than two hundred years left in the future, so she naturally wants to enjoy her glory. How can she be anonymous and be a fearful hermit?

During the conversation.

He also saw several tyrannical forces flying from all directions and landing in front of Zhongshan Zhenjun.

"Zhongshan Zhenjun."

Three calls in a row turned out to be three Nascent Soul Lords.

They all shook their heads and said: "We were waiting thousands of miles away to investigate all the way. We didn't see any movement. I'm afraid the person you mentioned has escaped long ago."

Zhongshan Zhenjun cupped his hands and thanked:

"No matter what, I have troubled you all. When I have some free time, I will personally hold a banquet to thank you all."

"Haha, Zhongshan Zhenjun's words are serious, but it's just a matter of effort."

The three True Lords are all casual cultivators who borrowed land in Donghua Tiancheng to practice. It is just a matter of convenience to help True Lord Chongshan this time.

After all, they are just here to help, and they don't have to risk their lives.

"Since we have nothing to do, let's take our leave first."

The three true kings bowed their hands and left.

True Lord Chongshan stretched out his big hand and held Zhu Yurong's waist.

"Let's go back too."

Whoosh.

True Lord Chongshan flew through the sky, and the air roared.

His physical body is extremely strong, and magic weapons can no longer damage him. He can even confront weaker spiritual treasures head-on. The strength of his physical body alone is enough to break the sound barrier.

If coupled with his own mana, the speed can be increased, which is enough to compare with some bird demon kings who are good at flying.

At this level of physical training, his mobility is already extremely strong.

Another half an hour passed.

Four powerful auras gathered here.

Zhongshan Zhenjun glanced around and believed that no one was stopping.

"It seems that I am too worried. Everyone, I'm sorry."

"Haha, it doesn't matter, since I have nothing to do, it can be considered a relief from boredom."

"I thought I was going to face off against two true kings, which made me very excited."

"You all come to my house for a drink. I have a new pot of Millennium Spiritual Wine and I am about to taste it with you."

"Go together, go together."

…

Everyone left with a smile.

A hundred miles away.

Two figures appeared.

"It seems your old lover betrayed you."

I am busy poking scars.

However, Wanshou Zhenren was neither sad nor happy: "It's as expected."

"What are your plans?"

"Of course I have to practice hard and then take revenge."

"Yes, it suits me very well."

Yu Xian turned into a ray of light and flew towards the direction of the Alchemy Sect.

Master Wan Beast glanced in the direction of Donghua Tiancheng and followed quickly.
