The Devilish Immortal Chapter 194

After hearing what Wine Sword Immortal had said, Lyu Liang did not panic at all. He replied respectfully, “Senior, I'm also confused about that. I have something to ask him, but now it seems that I can't get any answer from him anymore. I can feel that the talisman has a mighty Power of Law and it could not possibly be broken by my single move!”

Lyu Liang's answer sounded determined and honest. After hearing what he said, Wine Sword Immortal remained silent. All the people under the platform were looking up at the judges, waiting for a reassuring explanation. After all, such a big incident had happened in a wushu test, wherein their safety was supposed to be guaranteed.

Finally, Wine Sword Immortal stepped forward and claimed, “The talisman is made of the whiskers of Ancient Dragon Divine Ancestor, who is from the headquarters of the Heavenly Alliance. Only the one above the Divine Ancestor level, can break it with external force! We think that Anye Tianlong died because he destroyed the talisman in his Divine Soul. So it has nothing to do with Lyu Liang!”

People thought that this explanation was ridiculous, but they could only accept it with resignation. After all, no one would be silly enough to challenge the judges.

Lyu Liang sighed with relief, but he also felt very disappointed. Actually, he was startled by Wine Sword Immortal's question, but he answered righteously, because he did not do that! Now, he realized that Wine Sword Immortal wanted to reassure the people by asking him that question, and might already have come to a conclusion, prior to that.

Therefore, the fourth combat wound up, making many people confused. Lyu Liang did not know whether he should be happy or sad. A deadly foe of the Xuanli family had died, but Lyu Liang would not be able to learn anything from him, anymore.

Like other people, Lyu Liang did not believe that Anye Tianlong was the one who destroyed the talisman. He felt that Anye Tianlong, just like Zhu Yu, was framed, and Lyu Liang was a borrowed knife, used to commit the murder!

The biggest suspect was naturally Huangfu Gang, and the gray fog was the evidence.

Since he met Huangfu Gang, he had felt uncomfortable about that indistinct fog. Although he only saw him several times after that, Lyu Liang learned from others that Huangfu Gang had made numerous contributions during these few hundred years. More importantly, in any war, he was always covered with the fog.

Lyu Liang couldn't tell whether Huangfu Gang's fog was the same as that of Anye Tianlong. However, such a coincidence warned him to be more careful.

When Lyu Liang was in deep thought, Huangfu Gang came to him. He bowed deeply and said with a laugh, “Congratulations! I'll prepare a feast for you tonight, as a token of congratulations, and I also have something to tell you. Please accept my invitation!”

Lyu Liang was not worried that Huangfu Gang would frame him at the banquet. After all, Huangfu Gang invited him publicly, and everyone, including the judges, knew that clearly. Besides, his strength was mighty enough to let him take a chance.

Before Lyu Liang could answer, Huangfu Gang messaged him through his Divine Soul, “Brother Lyu, it's something about our Spiritual Qi of immortal and demon, and our being both human and demon!” This time, Lyu Liang accepted the invitation without any hesitation.

At the same time, inside the hall of the Anye Clan in the Devil Realm, a black-robed, bony old man was saying something into a mirror, his speech full of emotion. But even so, he had a humble look on his face.

“Milord Mingxue, please take revenge for my son! We can't indulge Lyu Liang anymore! Please send your disciples to kill him, in case he becomes a big problem for our organization in the future!” The old man said this resentfully, with tears flowing from his eyes.

There was a hideous face in the mirror. It had messy, red hair, no eyebrows, two eyes of different sizes, a flat nose, and thick lips. What was worse, a female voice, which didn't match the appearance at all, came from the mirror, “Ah! I know! I also feel sorry for little Tianlong! Don't worry. We'll discuss it. But I need to let our two Divine Envoy Milords know first. I'll ask them now!”

After she had said that, the mirror dimmed gradually, leaving the old man behind, still in a furious mood.

“Dad, but don't be over-sad about brother's death. Please take care of yourself. I think that the organization won't help us this time. Milord Mingxue is a self-willed person, but now she is saying that she has to ask the Divine Envoys for their opinions. Things are not as simple as they seem to be!” A tall, strong figure slowly emerged from the darkness. It was a whiskered man, who looked a little like Anye Tianlong, with a sharp face.

“Tianhu, I also know that! But it is not easy for us to take revenge. She's an influential figure in the organization, who can subdue the entire first clan of the Devil Realm, by using only a bit of her strength! Until I get a sound explanation about your brother's death, then will I feel relieved!” The black-robed old man looked very distressed.

The whiskered man said in a low voice, “Dad, please let me go to the Mortal Realm. To be honest, I don't believe that Lyu Liang could destroy the talisman stimulated by the Divine Ancestor! As for Huangfu Gang, although his mother is in our hands, and he is somewhat suppressed by this, I still don't trust him. Why not let me take this opportunity to find out what actually happened. Brother is too high-profile, but I'm not!”

“No! Tianhu, you're the real trump card of the Anye Clan, and also the key to gathering the Hell Organization's interest! If something should happen to you, our Anye Clan…” The old man disagreed anxiously, but he was interrupted before he could finish his sentence.

“Dad, there's no better way. Lyu Liang and Huangfu Gang are such unstable factors. If we don't take any action, we'll lose control of the situation, once the Chaotic World wins the war!” The whiskered man pronounced these words in a ringing tone. The old man was stunned and gradually loosened his grasp on the whiskered man's robe.

Then, the whiskered man said calmly and softly, “Dad, don't be worried. Even if my body is destroyed, my special constitution will keep me alive. My second Original Soul has finished the task assigned by the organization, so there won't be any problems. He will be back, as soon as I start off. Please take it easy and wait for him!”

“Alas! If your brother could be as careful and low-key as you, he would not have died so suddenly. Go and check how your brother died! We can't let Huangfu Gang get out of our control!” The black-robed man seemed to have calmed himself down, and there was a streak of cruelty in his eyes.

In a village of the human clan, in the Wufang Territory, there was an old, shabby house, with a rusty lock on the door. But if someone should somehow break in, he would find that it was immaculate inside, with a large water vat standing on the ground.

There was no water in the vat but an incredible starry sky! Inside it, several cultivators, who wore different clothes, were flying around, and a massive, golden castle was floating slowly…

In a hall of the castle, a slender yet hideous female was standing on a platform. In front of her was a large, cyan bronze mirror, from which, a calm female voice could be heard, coming from a dazzling golden light.

“I've got it. I'll tell Tianyang about that. But this is just a small incident, and you can decide by yourselves. Among the whole Anye Clan, except for the guy with the two-soul immortal body, I don't care whether the other people are alive or not. As for Huangfu Gang, he's the one we must win over! I didn't expect that, except for Tianyang, the one from the Mortal World, has the Fight Devine Body.” “It sounds fantastic!” The female voice seemed to be very cheerful.

“I see! I also think so, but I just can't seem to make it clear enough for the old guy of the Anye family. However, it seems that Tianhu will intervene. If he starts a conflict with Huangfu Gang, which one do we help?” The hideous female put forward the tricky problem.

The golden light started dimming as the female voice trailed off, “Ho ho, Tianyang's requirement and a disciple, which one do you think is more important…”

The hideous female's eyes lit up suddenly. She nodded immediately and cupped her hands at the mirror, which by now, was totally dim. Then, she turned around and walked down the platform as she said, “Chiliu, did you hear that? We can decide by ourselves. Then, we don't need to send disciples to trouble Lyu Liang. But Great Manual of Divine Soul, the seventh part of Canon of Wildness, is possessed by Lyu Liang…”

Under the platform, a young man sat drinking wine, with a calabash in his hand. He looked dispirited, with his hair tousled, and yet his eyes were still sharp. Hearing what the female had said, he looked back and said softly, “D*mn it! We've agreed on it. Tell Naluo and Zibing not to interfere in my business. If they dare, I promise I would kill them before I obtain Great Manual of Divine Soul!”

With a stern look on her face, the ugly female said in a low voice, “Do you still feel sorry for harming his sister? To be frank, I never expected that someone could survive your attack. I wonder what you experienced when you lurked in the Sword Character Immortal Palace.”

The man looked depressed, but he had a tender face and wore a neat robe of the Sword Character Immortal Palace. If Lyu Liang were here, he would be surprised to find that this man was actually Zhang Ran, one of the trios of the back mountain in the Sword Character Immortal Palace!

“Yes, I feel sorry about that! Do you know why? There should be such fools as Lyu Liang in this world, and yet, it seems that I'm a bit influenced by him. Take it easy. I won't give up the Great Manual of Divine Soul. But what I said just now, is my limit, and I'll say the same things, even to the two Divine Envoy Milords!” With a faint smile, Zhang Ran said this leisurely, yet with absolute determination.

The hideous female pouted her lips in an ugly smile, and then she said in a low voice, “I see. Don't worry. As your partner, I'll certainly help you do that. You have one hundred years to get the Great Manual of Divine Soul, and this is the longest time that I can promise you. The rest is all up to you!”

Hearing what she said, Zhang Ran nodded and smiled gratefully. Then, he pulled out a scroll, which exuded a cyan glow, and threw it to her as he said, “I've broken the last seal of Great Manual of Heavenly Enchantment. You can use it first. After all, there are still several decades before the deadline, to hand it in!”

The ugly female had a surprised look on her face. She held the scroll to her breast, and there were tears in her eyes. After a moment, she said in a trembling voice, “Thank you!”

Zhang rose and gulped down the rest of his wine. Then, he shook the calabash, shrugged his shoulders resignedly, and said, “There's no more wine. I have to hang out now and just take back Great Manual of Divine Soul. Alas, I have a headache! Oh yes, when I'm not here, please help me to oversee Tianding's cultivation. He has reached the seventh level of the Inner-Devil Devouring Body, and that's basically his limit. After he reaches the Peak, if he wants to cultivate the eighth level,, please stop him until I come back.”

The quiet village was initially lit up, and the only inn there, was about to close. However, a hand suddenly held the door, which was almost closed. The owner was stunned at first, but then, he shook his head with a wry smile, and reopened the door.

“Hey hey, uncle Fa, I'm late again, but thank you! I'll be going on a long journey, and don't know when I'll come back. Please give me 50 kilograms of Osmanthus wine. I'll pay double the price!” Zhang Ran slid in with a sheepish smile, and crammed the owner's hands, with something dazzling.

“You're going again? I know that you're a cultivator, but you still need to take care of yourself. If you find it hard to live outside, just come back to our small village. If I'm still alive at that time, I'll make more Osmanthus wine for you!” The owner was well acquainted with Zhang Ran. Although he was a mortal, he cared about Zhang Ran, like an elder.

After a moment, Zhang Ran left the inn, after giving the innkeeper a thousand thanks. When the owner closed the door, he smiled faintly and said, “Uncle Fa, and all the other people in our village, will definitely live a long and peaceful life!”

Then, he looked around with nostalgia and sighed slightly, before he disappeared.

The next moment, he reappeared in the air, over three thousand meters away. He had changed into the honest, lively appearance he usually wore, when he was in the Sword Character Immortal Palace. As he flew forward, he said softly, “Brother, I'm sorry! I'll pay for you the debt of harming Xinyun!”
