Legend of Swordsman

Before Wu Li could finish speaking, the Lord of Zhalong Mountain snorted coldly, “A spacetime token?”

Such a treasure, he barely had a few, and none were given to his descendants.

How could he believe this?

Wu Li also knew his explanation sounded far-fetched.

It sounded more like a perfunctory lie.

But that was the truth.

Two seemingly unremarkable demigod powerhouses had both taken out spacetime tokens, and after failing to defeat them, had fled.

“It’s absolutely true, with our level of power, how could we dare deceive the Lord!”

After finishing his words, Wu Li bowed deeply.

Jian Wushuang and the others held their breaths, waiting for the Lord of Zhalong Mountain to speak, whether it would be battle or peace depended on his next words.

However, judging by the other party’s demeanor, it seemed unlikely they would leave safely today.

Such a flimsy excuse, even a three-year-old wouldn’t believe it.

Let alone the Lord of Zhalong Mountain.

The atmosphere gradually cooled, and a murderous intent began to show in the eyes of the Lord of Zhalong Mountain.

His gaze then shifted towards Jian Wushuang.

“Fine, I will temporarily believe your words!”

With these words, not only did Jian Wushuang not feel relieved, but his heart grew even heavier, because he could see the killing intent in the other party’s eyes.

He just didn’t know what tactics the person before him would use against them.

Or what his intentions were?

With such powerful divine power, if it were him, he would definitely not waste words and would directly slaughter them.

He wanted to see what tricks the other party had up their sleeve.

Upon hearing the other party’s seemingly agreeable words, Wu Li’s face brightened, and he stood up, suppressing his joy, then spoke sorrowfully, “The fall of Brother Hong Long saddens me as well. Until his death, he kept murmuring about finding that treasure; otherwise, we would have reported the news of his death long ago!”

This also explained why they hadn’t immediately reported the incident.

But the Lord of Zhalong Mountain showed no interest in this explanation.

The fall of Hong Long, to a powerhouse of his level, wasn’t even a significant blow.

His previous intention to pass on his position was because he had reached a bottleneck.

He had reached the perfection stage within the Tribulation.

The next step was to prepare for the divine tribulation.

Therefore, he had paid a little attention to his descendants.

Many of his descendants had already fallen.

He had only treated Hong Long differently this time because he hoped Hong Long could protect his Zhalong Mountain.

The fall had happened, and so be it.

As long as he could become a Universe Master, he could cultivate even stronger descendants.

Why would he ruin his grand plan over such a small matter?

Jian Wushuang saw this clearly, which is why he remained vigilant.

Not avenging his son, yet seeking them out, there must be another reason.

“I can let go of Hong Long’s matter, but among you, whoever used the Beast God Power must stay, the rest I can let live!”

Beast God Power!

Upon hearing this, Wu Li and the others were stunned.

Previously, only Jian Wushuang had used the Beast God Power once, to absorb the blood pool.

It turned out to be about that matter.

They were still not out of trouble.

Seeing this, Wu Li quickly put on a fawning smile, taking out the blood pool, and said, “Senior, you must be mistaken. We are all human, how could we have Beast God Power? The Beast God Power you saw came from this blood pool, which is the treasure Brother Hong Long was looking for. Now that you are here, I hand it over to you, to honor Brother Hong Long’s spirit in heaven!”

Smack!

As soon as Wu Li offered the treasure, it was slapped away by the Lord of Zhalong Mountain.

A treasure containing Beast God Power meant nothing to him.

That bit of power wasn’t worth a glance.

If one could control Beast God Power, like Hong Long’s son, it could increase basic divine power by tens of millions.

But to the Lord of Zhalong Mountain, who had reached demigod perfection, even an increase of ten thousand was difficult.

How could he care about such a treasure?

Seeing this, Wu Li knew he couldn’t deceive him and stepped back half a step, saying nothing

more.

The others did the same.

Clearly, they were ready to fight desperately.

The Lord of Zhalong Mountain was a bit surprised, not expecting these people to be so united, with no one seeking to save themselves.

Although he had not thought about letting anyone go, wouldn’t one typically cherish even a sliver of hope?

“It seems you aren’t planning to talk!” The divine power of the Lord of Zhalong Mountain surged, instantly surpassing 60 million.

And it was just his basic divine power.

There was no need to use any secret arts.

His basic divine power had already reached 65.5 million.

With a slight use of secret arts, it could break 70 million.

Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but swallow hard.

The pressure was immense.

However, Hu Qing and the others were not the least bit flustered.

Hu Qing aside, he might still have a trump card.

But Wu Li remained calm and composed.

This made Jian Wushuang suspect that Wu Li might also have a hidden card.

Wu Zuo was indifferent because he had absolute faith in himself and Hu Qing.

Divine Wood King was somewhat tense but not panicked.

He had seen such scenes many times.

Back when they faced Chi Jiuxiao, it was far more thrilling than this.

Just as everyone was preparing to face the threat head-on, Jian Wushuang spoke up.

“Wait!”

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Zhalong Mountain turned to look at Jian Wushuang.

He already knew the problem lay with Jian Wushuang, and his earlier words were meant to

make Jian Wushuang speak voluntarily.

Possessing the power of the Beast God, and in such a pure form, he didn’t believe Jian Wushuang was a human. He was likely a super Beast God of the demon race.

If he captured him and extracted his complete Origin Source to transform himself, the value

would be infinite.

This was why the various demon clans treated those super Beast Gods like treasures.

Beast Gods were graded, and the most heaven-defying Beast Gods, once they became

Universe Masters, were nearly invincible.

They would inevitably be carefully protected and slowly nurtured.

He highly suspected Jian Wushuang was a super Beast God in disguise as a human.

So, he cautiously probed.

“Senior!” Jian Wushuang, unaware of his thoughts, proactively took out a Beast God Weapon

and said, “This treasure, I obtained by chance. Using it, I can wield the power of the Beast

God!”

The treasure he brought out was the Beast God Weapon “Eye of the Candle Dragon,” which he

had obtained earlier!

The Candle Dragon belonged to the dragon race.

Moreover, it was a top-tier Beast God among the dragon race.

When the Lord of Zhalong Mountain saw that eye, he couldn’t help but feel moved, and his

expression changed.

“You actually have such a treasure!” He could hardly believe it. Jian Wushuang had casually

taken out the super treasure he had dreamed of for so long.

He also had one such treasure, but he knew it was incomplete.

And that treasure was the Beast God Weapon Jian Wushuang had been searching for.

The last of the nine Beast God Weapons!

“The Demon Dragon’s Blade!”

He knew the last Beast God Weapon was in Zhalong Mountain.

But he hadn’t expected it to be in the hands of the Lord of Zhalong Mountain, who cherished it

like a precious gem.
