Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 1569 – Enmity

Du Shoushou risked his life and so did the White Tiger, but nothing could stop them.

This was a strange and unsolvable barrier. This big sister here had removed all of her power without any difference. Even the person who created this barrier didn’t dare to rashly enter.

However, he still had the roots of the Seven Leaves of Tathagata.

The Seven Leaves of Tathagata was the world’s highest level natural immortal grass, rumored to have been unintentionally cultivated by Creation Gods, but after that, it had never appeared. In the bottom of the lake in this small pond, the Seven Leaves of Tathagata had captured both An Zheng and Xiao Qi Dao.

When An Zheng was carried away by the vines, the vines on the wall also started to retreat.

Du Shoushou coughed loudly, he could barely breathe.

Just now, he had been entangled by countless vines, and it seemed as if some of them had been stuffed into his nostrils. Just as he was about to faint from suffocation, all the vines seemed to have received orders and retreated.

With the White Tiger by Du Shoushou’s side, it looked like his situation was not any better.

At this moment, an ice-cold voice appeared in this gloomy, jars like space, lingering and reverberating in the surroundings. It was impossible to determine exactly where the voice came from.

“Don’t be impatient. Come one by one. No one will be given up by me.”

The voice was a little hoarse and unclear, as if there was something stuck in his throat.

“You … Is it Hei Que! ”

Du Shoushou asked after coughing for a while.

“Is Hei Que important?”

The person was obviously silent for a moment, as if he did not expect Du Shoushou to directly ask this name.

“At least all of you are impressive. To be able to think of this name …” I had originally thought that no one in this world would ever be able to remember the name Hei Que.

Qu Liuxi had just recovered the strength to speak: “Where did you take them!”

“Bring it to me.”

That voice seemed to be fixed at Qu Liuxi’s side, as though an invisible eye was staring straight at Qu Liuxi. That kind of feeling was extremely bad, to the point that she couldn’t see anything, yet she knew that he must be looking at her.

“You’re not bad.”

There waint of undisguised admiration in his voice.

If I didn’t know who you are, I would really want to keep you here. You should understand thaerson’s world is lonely, and there are a lot of beautiful ideas that they can’t talk about.

“You want to devour their power?!”

Qu Liuxi asked.

“There’s no need to hide anything from me.”

There was a very obvious sense of pride in that voice. “Others may not understand the problem here, but you must have figured it out. So, you know better than them how urgent it is for me.”

Qu Liuxi said: “You nurtured the Seven Leaves of Tathagata, and used the Seven Leaves of Tathagata to extend your life by an unlimited amount. And there is only one possibility for you to do so, and that is when you were heavily injured back then.”

“Yes, that’s right. It’s a very serious injury.”

“You’re injured to the point where you can’t even cure yourself, but you were lucky to find the cultivation method of the Seven Leaves of Tathagata. Afterwards, you placed your severely injured body into the Seven Leaves of Tathagata, and relied on the Seven Leaves of Tathagata’s ability to gather and absorb all the essence of the heaven and earth to maintain you.

Qu Liuxi’s voice was filled with hostility, “You’re too heavily injured, and the Seven Leaves of Tathagata alone won’t be able to restore you to your peak strength. Thus, you used the Seven Leaves of Tathagata to build the Ten Li Killing Formation, and used it to absorb the power of those demon beasts.”

“Yes, your guess is correct, but even if you’re right, it doesn’t make any sense.”

The voice continued, “Since you want to know, why don’t I tell you myself … That year, when Pre-Qin Emperor told me to chase and kill Xu Fu, on the surface, my relationship with Xu Fu was always on bad terms, but in reality, the two of us had always been good friends, even Pre-Qin Emperor didn’t know that. Before I became his servant, I already knew Xu Fu.

“After Xu Fu went east, he intentionally cut off his connection with the Great Qin. The Pre-Qin Emperor was enraged, and sent General Meng Hu to kill Xu Fu. I volunteered to assist him, so of course the Pre-Qin Emperor wouldn’t suspect anything … Actually, I am afraid. No one knows better than me what kind of person Pre-Qin Emperor is, because I have once exchanged my life for his.

“It’s fine when Xu Fu is still in the Great Qin Nation, but since he betrayed the Qin Nation, the Pre-Qin Emperor will not let him off. He will also not let anyone who is related to him off, sooner or later the Pre-Qin Emperor will find out that Xu Fu and I are already acquainted, so what are we waiting for, for him to make the first move? Forget it, I’ll just flee by myself. ”

“Xu Fu and I met in the Azure Province and after a discussion, we decided that he would continue to search for him.

The sound disappeared for a while, followed by a series of “sizzling” sounds, as if something was crawling on the ground. People couldn’t help but think of the appearance of a person crawling on the ground like a snake, just thinking of it made their hair stand on end.

“Afterwards, I didn’t know why the Daofather had come looking for me either.”

Hei Que’s voice appeared again, and it was a little wheezing, as if he had just done something that exhausted his strength. Before he said those words, Qu Liuxi and the others vaguely heard the sound of something being lifted up and placed on top of it, and their hearts fiercely sunk.

When Hei Que was talking to them, it seemed like An Zheng and the Xiao Qi Dao had already been transported over, and had even been personally moved by Hei Que to something else.

Hei Que couldn’t leave the Seven Leaves of Tathagata so he had to rely on the Seven Leaves of Tathagata’s roots to move around. It was obvious that he cared a lot about doing it himself, and when he spoke, he could not suppress the joy and excitement in his heart.

“What are you trying to do!”

Qu Liuxi roared.

“You know that.”

Hei Que said as though he was laughing coldly, “You know that my injuries are too severe, even the Seven Leaves of Tathagata is unable to completely recover me. All these years, I have been searching, searching for a body that can replace the body of a Seven Leaves of Tathagata is too difficult, it was truly too difficult. You don’t know how many times I have to give up, and how many times I have to advise myself against giving up hope.”

He panted, “Don’t interrupt me, it’s been too long since I’ve had a chat with anyone, especially with you guys, talking about the past will always make me feel proud. If it wasn’t for you guys in the past, I would have ended up in this state. The cycle of karma. ”

Hei Que remained silent for a while before continuing, “Do you know where all the injuries on my body came from? It’s all because of you! Especially you! ”

Although he did not say who it was, everyone knew that he was talking about Qu Liuxi.

“I didn’t know how that fellow found me back then either. I hid myself here and started to nurture the Seven Leaves of Tathagata. However, no matter how many times I tried, it all ended in failure. Just when I was about to give up, the Dao Ancestor came.”

Hei Que’s voice clearly trembled. It was obvious that when he thought back to the appearance of the Daofather, he still felt waves of fear.

“That is a different kind of Daofather that I have met …” With my position in the Great Qin Empire, it wasn’t difficult for me to meet a Daofather in the past. He single-handedly established the Dao Sect and helped Pre-Qin Emperor become the strongest in the world.

“When he found me, I thought I was finished … Everyone knows that there is a saying in this world that says that one must first kill the Daofathers before destroying the Great Qin. ”

“The Daofather was Pre-Qin Emperor’s most loyal and powerful friend, so when he found me, I knew that I was finished. However, what I didn’t expect was that the Daofather I saw that day was completely different than before. What I saw in his eyes was naked desire, a type of … Cruelty. ”

Du Shoushou snorted: “Because that’s not a Daofather at all, but Tan Shanse.”

“Yeah, I only found out about it later. The Dao Ancestor actually had a dark side. Hahahaha …” A saint would actually have a dark side as well, and it is even more terrifying than the dark side of an ordinary person. ”

He seemed to be waiting for something, and no other sounds could be heard. Perhaps it was because the time was not right, or perhaps he was waiting for some other opportunity.

“Did you see the pictures on the bronze doors outside? You guys know that I can’t move freely right now, and without Seven Leaves of Tathagata, I won’t be able to go anywhere else. Fortunately, although these things are all stupid, they’re still obedient. ”

“I knew it was him that day.”

A vine extended out from the wall and nodded at the White Tiger’s face.

“White Tiger, one of the four guardians, the reason why I chose to stay here is because you are resting, and I can absorb your power to strengthen myself. Oh, I forgot to mention just now, the Dao Ancestor told me that you were at the bottom of the small lake, and that you were talking about Tan Shanse.”

“This was not the place where I first went into seclusion in the Azure Province. The Dao Ancestor found me and told me …” You, one of the four protectors, the Western White Tiger, hibernates right under this small cave garden lake. It’s a very, very deep hibernation and won’t be awakened easily.

Hei Que continued to speak: “So I moved everything into the small lagoon and created everything here below, but at that time, it was all preparation, and I don’t know if I would need it in the future, fortunately I had prepared these at the time.”

“Later on, you woke up, and indeed, you found the tomb I built. You discovered the Ten Li Hanging Death Formation, so you must have come here to see what happened. After all, no matter how low the rank of the monsters that were killed by the Ten Li Hanging Death Formation are, in name, they should still be considered your apprentices.”

“Why didn’t I touch you?”

“Because I know what your relationship with the female war god is … Hahahaha, I deliberately let you go, you indeed didn’t disappoint me, it was just that you came a little late, and made me wait a long time, you are the mount of a female war god, you escaped, in the future you will definitely bring them back, that grudge from back then … I can report it all at once. ”
