Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 41: Falling into the trap again

Everyone stared at Wuzhan. They were about to give up, so how could they not be excited after hearing such an answer?

Qin Moyao was the most shocked. Not only was she shocked by Wuzhan's answer, she also began to doubt her self-confidence. She had never been so proactive with any man like she was with him. If it wasn't for finding Xingtian's relics, how could she do this? But even so, she still couldn't move the dying man in front of her. What kind of heart was hidden under her calm appearance? She looked at Wuzhan with those sad and resentful eyes and thought to herself, "How could you do this!"

"Then quickly unlock the seal!" Qingyang said in surprise.

Wuzhan looked at Qingyang and said calmly: "To unlock the seal, you need three magic stones!"

After Qingyang heard this, his expression immediately changed from joy to gloom. He knew which three magic stones they were. He thought to himself, "How can these magic stones be related to this? He is trying to cheat again. I almost died at his hands twice. I can't fall into his trap again. I will kill him as soon as he finishes the spell."

Xiao Jinghong asked: "Where are the magic stones here? Which three magic stones do you want?"

Wuzhan said: "Here they are, all on one person!" looking at Qingyang.

Qing Yang angrily said, "Don't listen to his nonsense!" He said to Wu Zhan fiercely, "Be careful or I will kill you in a rage!"

Everyone immediately guessed that the magic stone was on Qingyang. Xiao Jinghong smiled and said, "We can talk about our feud later. Isn't the purpose of our coming here to unlock the seal? Now that the seal has been found and the thing is in your hands, just hand it over now!"

Qingyang said: "This kid is always cheating, you can't believe what he says!"

Xiao Jinghong stood in front of Wuzhan and said with a smile: "So far, he has told us the truth, and we can get here thanks to him. Do you want to secretly unlock it after we leave? So many of us have come here, and we will not leave if we can't unlock the seal. Besides, we all know the reason why you brought him here now." The implication was that if he doesn't hand it over, we will all attack him together.

Qingyang was certain that Wuzhan must have used these people to take back the magic stone. He began to regret not killing Wuzhan immediately. It was impossible to kill him now. This kid was too insidious. He could take someone's life with just one sentence. Looking at the greedy eyes of these people in front of him, if he didn't hand over the magic stone today, it would be difficult for him to leave alive. He glared at Wuzhan fiercely and said, "You can't fool me. How can you, a person without any magic, break this seal!"

“This is not something you can understand.” Wuzhan said lightly.

Qing Yang said: "You can hand over the magic stone, but you must tell me how to do it!"

Wuzhan said: "Put the magic stones into those slots and recite the seal-breaking spell."

"You're talking nonsense. The slot is so big, and there are five of them. How can I put three magic stones in it?"

"Whether or not it can be put in is my business. Do you know the function of that slot? Do you think all five must be used?"

He Biliu said: "Qingyang, just give the magic stone to him and let him try. If it can unlock the seal, that's even better. If it can't, he can't escape. We can kill him then, and no one will object."

Qingyang said fiercely: "Okay, if you cheat again, I will never forgive you!" He took out three magic stones from his arms, the blue evil-avoiding stone, which belonged to Master Xuanqing, the black soul-soothing stone, which belonged to Master Zitan, and the red soul-capturing stone, which had always been in Qingyang's hands.

Everyone saw the three stones, which had no special features except for their different colors. They were very ordinary. Perhaps there was a powerful demon hidden in them, which was the key to unlock the seal. Qingyang was ready to hand it to Wuzhan personally, but Xiao Jinghong stepped in front of him and took it, then turned around and handed it to Wuzhan. Wuzhan was now the key protected person of these people, and they would not give Qingyang any chance to make a move.

Wuzhan took the three magic stones and said calmly: "All of you should retreat from here, otherwise you will be in danger when the seal is unlocked!"

When Qingyang heard this, he knew that he was going to play tricks again and wanted to stay, but when he saw Xiao Jinghong and others standing in front of him, motioning for him to leave, he had to snort coldly and walked towards the cave entrance. Everyone retreated to the cave entrance and waited for Wuzhan to remove the seal. Qin Moyao's heart was restless, not because of the seal that might be about to be released, but because of those unfathomable eyes. Even though he knew that the magic stone was on Qingyang and it could not be opened without it, why didn't he tell me.

Wuzhan sat in the center of the Bagua-shaped characters and put the three magic stones into the slot. The slot was indeed much larger. Wuzhan faced the crowd and, in full view of everyone, he made a seal on his chest in a very formal manner and closed his eyes for a long time.

Everyone was anxious. Qingyang said, "Just watch how he cheats. He doesn't know how to do anything!" Xiao Jinghong smiled and said, "Be patient and wait. If I can't crack it, I will kill him without you!"

At this time, Wuzhan was heard using all his strength to shout to the sky: "The wind and grass are shaking, I have no bones, who said I am a gentleman, and took away my millet seedlings. The wind and grass are yellow, I have no skin, who said I am a gentleman, and took away my clothes. The wind and grass are bleak, I have no heart, who said I am a gentleman, and took away my homesickness." The voice resounded throughout the cave, tearing with sadness.

Everyone thought: "What he recited doesn't sound like a spell, but more like a poem. Could it be a magic spell?" They were quietly waiting for the moment to break the seal. Suddenly, they felt someone crying behind them. They turned around and saw that it was Su Qiaoqiao. Xiang Yuanxing asked: "Why are you sad?" Su Qiaoqiao wiped her tears and cried and laughed: "I don't know. I listened and cried. I feel that we are all so sad!"

In fact, what Wuzhan was reading was the ancient text "Bu Mo? Feng Cao" on Xing Tian's axe. As soon as he finished reading it with all his strength, Wuzhan could no longer hold back and spit out a mouthful of blood. He staggered and almost fell down. After stabilizing himself, he continued to close his eyes and seal. Everyone was shocked. For some reason, Qingyang shouted, "It's been so long, he must be delaying, take him down!" He was about to go forward. He Bilu advised, "Just wait a little longer. This kid is so tired that he vomited blood. He won't cheat this time."

Su Qiaoqiao said: "That's right, she's already like that, and you still say she's deceitful. What kind of heart do you have!"

……

A bubble emerged from the pool behind Wuzhan, burst on the water surface and created ripples. The people at the entrance of the cave did not notice this detail. Wuzhan slowly opened his eyes at this time, looking at Qingyang in the distance, with a hint of contempt. He gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, stretched out his bloodless hand, and slowly picked up the magic stones one by one.

Qingyang couldn't bear it any longer. He felt that he had fallen into a trap. He leaped up and rushed towards Wuzhan without hesitation. Everyone was caught off guard and failed to stop Qingyang in time. They hurriedly chased after him, only to hear Qingyang shouting, "I'm going to kill you!"

At this time Wuzhan had already stood up, holding the three magic stones in his hands. Seeing that Qingyang's sword was about to pierce in front of him, Wuzhan just stood there, not thinking of dodging, and looked at Qingyang indifferently.

A giant black claw rose up behind him. When Qingyang saw it, the claw had already slapped down with a strong wind. If he was hit, he would be turned into meat paste. At the critical moment, Qingyang took one foot and jumped up sideways.

"Bang!" The giant claw slapped Wuzhan in front of him, and with a flick of its hand, it lifted Qingyang, who had jumped up, into the crowd. Qingyang's body was about to break, and blood was spurting out of his mouth. He was caught by Hebi Liu, who supported him by leaning against him and stood up. He pointed at Wuzhan and said with pain and difficulty: "My magic stone!"

The giant claws stretched out, grasping Wu Yu, and the huge body jumped out of the pool of water like a dragon out of the sea, stepping on the glowing ground, roaring, and setting off a hurricane, roaring in everyone's ears.

No one expected such a sudden change to happen, let alone what the reason was. He Biliu's golden elixir, Xiao Jinghong's golden elixir, and Chang Bu Yu's even larger golden elixir actually flew out of their sleeves and returned to Lu Wu. The three wanted to catch them back, but it was too late. Luwu opened his huge mouth and held the elixir in his mouth. Luwu glared at everyone with his one eye that was not blind, scaring everyone so much that they retreated, fearing that Luwu would leap over and attack them.

Wuzhan was held in Lu Wu's giant palm, looking down at everyone with an indifferent look in his eyes, a look that no one could understand, and no one would ever understand. Qin Moyao sighed softly at this moment, thinking, "He didn't lie to me!" Feeling lost and resentful, he was the only one among these people who was not frightened because she did not see Lu Wu.

Lu Wu roared again, jumped high into the air, and fell into the bottomless pool with a "splash", stirring up waves several feet high, splashing black water all over everyone, and just like that, he disappeared from everyone's sight.

Everyone came to their senses and slowly approached the lake, looking down, wondering what was hidden beneath the dark water.

Qingyang had gone mad, glaring at everyone and saying hatefully: "This is all your fault, this is all your fault. I've already said he was cunning, but none of you believed me. Who of you can return the three magic stones to me?" If Qingyang had not been seriously injured, he would have picked up his sword and fought desperately with these people in front of him.

No one said anything, and the three golden elixirs were taken away by Lu Wu. These people had taken great pains to get here, and many died along the way. In the end, everything was in vain, and no one would be willing to accept this. But it was basically certain that no one could open the seal, and Wuzhan only used it to take away Qingyang's magic stone.

As for why Luwu captured Wuzhan, no one could figure it out. Maybe he was the closest to him, so he captured him and ate him. In fact, Wuzhan's life or death is irrelevant to most people.

He Biliu and the others jumped into the black water and dived more than ten feet deep. They could not go down anymore. It was pitch black below and they could not see anything. Besides, it was Luwu's nest. Even if they went down, they would be committing suicide. Everyone looked at the seal and pondered for a long time, unwilling to leave.

Under Su Qiaoqiao's persuasion, Xiang Yuanxing agreed to leave here and took the lead to walk towards the exit that Wuzhan pointed out to Qin Moyao.

Qin Moyao pondered for an unknown amount of time, and finally realized that everything she had done to Wuzhan was unnecessary, as he knew everything very well. Finally, she silently led the Emei disciples towards the exit.

……

Ever since Qingyang brought Wuzhan to Changyang Mountain, Wuzhan had guessed that the seal was impossible to break, and he had been planning all the way how to take back the magic stone and escape safely. In order to gain everyone's trust, he thought hard and made all kinds of calculations, but no matter how he calculated, it was difficult to leave safely, because breaking the seal was the key. If the seal could not be broken, no one would keep him. Fortunately, he saw Xingtian's giant axe and Xingtian's "卜谋?风草". It was a poem written by Xingtian, not a spell, but if this poem could be shouted out, he would definitely get Luwu's protection, because Luwu might be here to wait for Xingtian and was unwilling to leave. Those who recited their master's poems would get its protection. Seeing the corpse of the ferocious beast, he knew that he was not far from Luwu. Seeing the bloodstains on the surface of the pool, he knew that Luwu was in the pool.

Wuzhan was held in Lu Wu's hand, his body falling rapidly. He could not see anything and could only close his eyes. The water pressure kept increasing, his chest seemed to be crushed, his ribs seemed to be broken, and his head was buzzing.

Just when he was about to faint, his body suddenly rose up, faster and faster, making his body feel a lot more relaxed, and after a moment, he quickly emerged from the water.

Wuzhan slowly opened his eyes and saw an astonishing scene...
