Chapter 789 Undercurrents

Why did Luohou's arrow appear here?

Bai Yu was very confused.

Especially since this arrow was shot from this door.

Is Luohou locked in there?

He scratched his head and couldn't figure it out.

Even if Scathach was really powerful, she shouldn't have the ability to lock this evil star in the door, right?

Besides, Luohou has never left Daxia.

His life goal is to eliminate demons, so he will never leave Daxia.

There are no demons in the West that he wants to eliminate, otherwise the followers of the evil star would have established branches all over the world to form a demon-slayer team.

But this short arrow did come from Luohou.

Bai Yu refined the Ketu arrow himself, so his memory of Luohou is very deep and vivid. His early archery skills have been mastered by Bai Yu, but he doesn't like to use bows and arrows, so he has never used them.

After telling Scathach the story about Luohou, Scathach said thoughtfully: "This person's realm must be very high. A seeker of the truth can live for more than a thousand years. He has either broken through the bottleneck of the limit or embarked on a new path that has never been seen before."

Bai Yu said: "Or both... But no one can understand Luohou's thoughts. Even the followers of the evil star don't know what he is thinking. He almost never shows up. I am shocked to see the arrows he shoots here."

Scathach tapped the magic gun with her fingers: "It's really amazing. We have fought each other for no less than a hundred times without meeting each other. This has almost become one of the pleasures of my life. If he stops shooting arrows, I will feel a little lonely."

The subtext of her words is-I really want to fight Luohou face to face.

Scathach is an out-and-out warrior, and martial artists have a little bit of evil in their hearts, fighting for strength and bravery, and boasting about their martial arts. She never shy away from this.

The reason why she is more forgiving of her disciples is that she values ​​their potential and hopes that they can become stronger and reach their own realm one day... Even if her disciples finally set their sights on the throne of the Shadow Kingdom and choose to challenge her to a duel, a life-and-death battle without regard for the consequences, Scathach will surely feel very gratified on the ring.

Scathach is too strong and has also been bound by the Shadow Kingdom for too long. In addition to her hobby and profession, she teaches her disciples to cultivate more seeds.

When she learned of the existence of Luohou, Scathach's will to fight was somewhat uncontrollable. She looked at the closed door and showed a regretful expression.

She also knew that such an opponent would not come to the Shadow Kingdom.

She couldn't get out either and couldn't leave.

The queen's expression was slightly lonely.

But as an old lady, her emotions come and go quickly. Her expression returned to indifference, and she asked calmly: "When do you plan to go back?"

"Then today." Bai Yu put the broken arrow into the space: "Just give me three days off, wait until the Queen's Birthday is over."

"Okay..." Scathach picked up a stone, carved a rune and threw it to Bai Yu: "When you need to return to the Shadow Kingdom, crush it."

"Return to the city hearthstone?" Bai Yu was surprised: "Rune runes are so useful? Can you teach me?"

"Okay." Scathach raised his eyes: "The premise is that you have reached the state of canonization. world."

"?"

"Because this stone is only used for positioning." The queen said lightly: "Space teleportation is not that simple. After you crush it, I can sense your position and pull you back to the Shadow Kingdom. Of course, you don't have to. After the three-day holiday, I will also pull you back."

Bai Yu: "..."

This reminded him of a joke. It seemed that it was America or Ingrid. Someone claimed to have developed an artificial intelligence software, which was quite smart. After it was launched, it attracted some attention. Later, the underlying code was dug out and it was found that it was a real-time chat software, and behind it was a group of Indian curry guys.

Like this rune traditional stone, it is basically artificial intelligence.

Many things look simple on the surface, but the actual internal principles are completely different from what you imagine.

For example, some people can take out guns from under their cloaks infinitely, because there is a subspace hidden under his cloak, and there is a whole gun factory hidden in the subspace.

Bai Yu thought, if he deliberately used a knife to split the space and cut it in front of everyone, and then quietly crushed the rune stone, then Scathach would use a teleportation to pull him back to the Shadow Kingdom.

Then, in the eyes of everyone present, he split the space and ascended to heaven in broad daylight.

Wouldn't this increase his fashion value?

He turned and walked towards the exit, and put his hand on a black stone. The rune lit up and an exit opened.

"Let's go." Bai Yu waved: "Ghana ┏(＾0＾)┛."

Scathach followed suit and shook her wrist.

Watching the disciple step into the space crack and disappear.

The Shadow Kingdom immediately became deserted, leaving only her standing in the wind and snow.

There was a sense of loneliness with snowflakes fluttering and the north wind whistling.

However, the liveliness was abnormal for the Shadow Kingdom.

This shadow country without sunlight, sleeping under the ice and snow and the aurora, is quiet and empty.

The queen returned to the castle.

She looked at the dining table, raised her hand, and told the shadow servant not to prepare dinner for today.

She looked at the throne that had been empty for a long time, walked up the steps for the first time in a long time, and sat down on the cold throne.

The material of the throne was very hard, made entirely of stone. The chill penetrated into her skin, bone marrow, and even soul like the ice of the Shadow Kingdom.

Her heartbeat also gradually slowed down, and her body temperature began to drop.

All emotions quickly calmed down, and finally turned into a smooth straight line without any waves.

Scathach's breathing became even and brisk.

Just three days.

Just a blink of an eye.

She closed her eyes and assimilated with the throne, just like the past years.

…

Abandoned port in midwinter.

A ship passed through the thick night, and in the dead sea, it quietly anchored between the ports that had long been submerged by the tide.

As the tide receded, the table covered with seaweed and barnacles was exposed.

A figure stepped on the wet ground.

The visitor wore a hat and a cloak, one eye was covered by an eye mask, and he held a long wooden stick in his hand, about 2.7 meters high, which he used as a walking stick. When he knocked on the ground, it made a dull echo like steel hitting cement.

"Longdong, it's been a long time. The last time I came back here... was more than 170 years ago."

Under the hat was a vicissitudes of life face, and it was obvious that he was an old man.

Vulnerable but not old.

He took off his hat, revealing a head of silver-white hair. He was missing an eye, but it did not affect his outstanding temperament at all.

After leaving the boat, several people were waiting on the shore.

Seeing the old man appear, one of them hurried forward to greet him: "Mr. Xiu, you are finally here."

The gray-haired old man called Xiu just glanced at the few people in front of him.

Just a glance, but it gave people a strong sense of oppression out of thin air, like a thousand-pound boulder falling on the shoulder.

"The Star Palace has also declined. At this point, it can only gather so many people."

"It seems that the Outer Gods have not paid much attention to you in recent years. The influence has not increased but decreased. A lot of the wealth accumulated in the past few hundred years has also been lost."

Xiu's comments were a bit contemptuous: "You can't even gather a few decent saints. They are all pseudo-saints."

The few people in front are all masters in the Star Palace. They are also considered to be particularly capable among the Outer Gods' apostles.

But in the comments of this old man, it seems that they are not worth mentioning at all.

Such arrogant words did not cause dissatisfaction...

Because this Mr. Xiu has the qualifications to say this.

He was once the absolute overlord who dominated an era.

He once left a strong and colorful mark in history in the name of cultivation.

But no matter how powerful a person is in history, he will be forgotten and erased by time, even as powerful as the saint.

More than two hundred years have passed, and the absolute overlord who once suppressed Europe has been forgotten in the corner of history, covered with the dust of history.

All those who witnessed the great deeds in those days have died.

Xiu disappeared for two hundred years and became a person forgotten by history.

Just like the list of the top ten and ten evil in Daxia, many generations can see Luo Hou and Penglai Island Master at the top of the list, but they may forget how many generations the other nine names have been rotated.

The memory of the times belongs to a generation, and when a generation leaves, the memory will be erased.

Xiu is the one who failed to become Luo Hou and Penglai Island Master.

Although he was canonized, he seemed to have disappeared.

Such people will either disappear without a trace; or turn into a flash of lightning in the roar of their return.

Either light up the world and shatter the darkness, or tear the world apart and leave a wound as a trace of their presence.

Such people are the most dangerous.

Because they have once stepped on the peak, they are often unwilling to disappear easily, and will try their best to preserve themselves. If this cannot be done, then do a grand event, at least let the world remember them.

Think about how the dark turmoil came about. Isn't it just a mess caused by a group of emperors who were unwilling to dissipate?

Xiu returned to the starting point of Midwinter, and what greeted him was the Star Palace, an organization of believers of the Outer Gods.

This is no longer a hint, but a clear indication that a dangerous storm is brewing, which may be enough to engulf the entire Midwinter Island.

"We are able to share the path to godhood because of the favor and appreciation of God. Naturally, we are not as good as Mr. Xiu, a genius who created his own path to heaven." The Star Palace envoy was quite polite and cautious: "But since you are here, we should discuss it."

"I won't take action before seeing Scathach."

He glanced at the main forces of the Star Palace calmly, walked past them casually, and said lightly: "You can act according to your own plan. I just want to see the strongest gun in the world."

Another Star Palace envoy asked: "Mr. Xiu is really sure to deal with Scathach?"

"If I am not sure, then you come?" The old man asked coldly.

"..."The Star Palace envoy knew that several of them combined were not Scathach's opponents.

"I have lived for a long time, and I can't find the direction to improve myself. The only way is to seek the way to become a king. However, there are only a few thrones. If you want to sit on one, you have to kick the person on it down. You need to fight for it with force."

"If I want to fight for this position, I will naturally do my best, otherwise I will die in her hands."

"I am different from you. I have no way out, and I don't have time."

The old man seemed to bury himself in the darkness, leaving only his voice echoing.
