Mortal Mirror

To be honest, Li Ergou had been on the verge of death several times, so he wasn't too afraid of dying.

If the big fish thought it could scare him like this, it was sorely mistaken. Li Ergou remained calm and said, "I really have seen it, but it told me that if I dared to tell anyone about its existence, it would make my life worse than death.

Huh, you two sound alike. Don't tell me you know each other."

Upon hearing Li Ergou's words, the big fish became slightly agitated and said, "What, is she… is she alright?"

Li Ergou felt as if he had grasped something, although he wasn't too sure yet, a seed had been planted in his heart. He quickly nodded and said, "She's doing great. You don't really know her, do you?"

The big fish didn't continue speaking but fell into contemplation.

For a time, the atmosphere here became even heavier.

After a long while, the big fish sighed and said, "Human, help me with something, and I can spare your life and even give you a great opportunity."

Li Ergou was stunned for a moment, then said, "I don't have to die? Okay, what is it?"

Bai Su was also slightly surprised, wondering what it was.

The big fish hesitated for a moment, as if it had made a decision, and looked at Li Ergou. Then, a divine sense power shot out from its eyes like lightning towards Bai Su.

Bai Su didn't even have time to react and immediately fainted.

Li Ergou was dumbfounded and immediately said anxiously, "What did you do to her?"

The big fish said, "It's nothing, just letting her sleep for a while. If I'm not mistaken, this woman is important to you, so she will become a handle for me."

Li Ergou didn't understand what it meant. "What exactly do you want to do? I agree to you, why threaten me like this?"

The big fish didn't answer him but said to itself, "I want you to take me to see her."

Li Ergou widened his eyes in disbelief and said, "Are you crazy? How can I take you out? Do you think I'm a god? Besides, she once told me not to let anyone know of her existence. Aren't you harming me? If that's the case, you might as well just kill me, once and for all, to save me from suffering."

The big fish snorted and said, "That's because you don't know the relationship between her and me."

"Relationship? What relationship? Tell me, and I'll listen carefully before considering anything else."

Li Ergou was just saying it casually, wondering how to get out of here. Looking at Bai Su, he sighed, wondering if he should leave her here, which would be too unkind.

Just as he was thinking, to his surprise, the big fish slowly said, "Do you know why Baojing Prefecture is called Baojing Prefecture?"

Li Ergou looked blank and shook his head. "How would I know? Could it be that Baojing Prefecture looks like a treasure mirror?"

The big fish looked disdainful and said, "Hmph, young people these days, don't understand anything, truly useless."

Li Ergou: "…"

The big fish snorted and slowly said, "Ten thousand years ago, there was a lake in Baojing Prefecture. This lake was extremely large, occupying one-third of Baojing Prefecture's area. This lake was shaped like a treasure mirror. When there was no wind, the lake surface was as calm as a painting, like a treasure mirror adorning this prefecture, so it was called Divine Mirror Lake.

The name Baojing Prefecture also comes from this."

Li Ergou was surprised, not expecting the origin of Baojing Prefecture to be like this.

The big fish pondered for a moment and then slowly said, "Over time, such a large lake gave birth to three powerful demons. The three of them grew up together and were all very powerful, so they became sworn siblings.

The eldest was named Divine Dragon Fish, possessing Divine Dragon bloodline. She was dignified and beautiful, with unparalleled beauty, and was the eldest sister among the three.

The second was named Black Dragon Fish, possessing Black Dragon bloodline. He was resolute and handsome, and was the second brother among the three.

The third was named Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish, possessing Qilin bloodline. He was explosive and cynical, and was the youngest among the three, being the little brother.

The three of them lived freely in the world, truly happy. But suddenly one day, the Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish finally had his bloodline awakened, but the immense power made him lose himself.

He wanted to become immortal, he wanted to obtain eternal life, but cultivating through ordinary methods would take countless years.

So he killed people everywhere, taking their blood as food, wanting to use this fastest evil method to achieve immortality. For a time, he rushed into the prefecture, causing chaos and bloodshed.

This caused a great disaster, attracting a very powerful person.

At first, the Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish thought he was invincible, but when he saw that person, he realized what it meant to be that there is always someone better. (lit. there is sky beyond the sky, there are people beyond people)

That person was extremely powerful, splitting the sky with a sword. The Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish was defeated after only one round, and was chased back to Divine Mirror Lake.

The Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish called out to his two sworn siblings. The two fish naturally wouldn't stand by. Among them, the Divine Dragon Fish was the most powerful, with heaven-defying cultivation, and the Black Dragon Fish was second, but equally fierce.

The three demons fought this person, but in the end, they were no match. After a while, they were all seriously injured. Just as that person was about to end the three demons,

He suddenly hesitated, because he saw that during the battle, the Black Dragon Fish, who had awakened the Black Dragon bloodline, showed signs of dragon transformation.

Therefore, he proposed to let the Black Dragon Fish be his mount.

The Black Dragon Fish was of staunch character, how could he agree to this? Naturally, he would rather die than submit. But that person told him that as long as he agreed, he could spare the lives of the Divine Dragon Fish and the Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish.

Hearing this, the Black Dragon Fish was silent for a moment. He took a deep look at the Divine Dragon Fish. In fact, the second and third brothers both liked the extremely beautiful eldest sister, and the three of them knew it, but the three of them had a close relationship, and no one wanted to break this relationship.

In the end, for the sake of the two, or rather, for the sake of the eldest sister, he chose what he considered the most humiliating moment of his life.

At that moment, the Seven-Colored Fish and the Divine Dragon Fish both saw the pain and despair in his eyes.

You should know that he was of staunch character, even if someone killed him, he wouldn't blink an eye, but he endured such great humiliation for the sake of the eldest sister.

At this moment, the big fish had indescribable anger and jealousy in its eyes.

After a pause, he continued, "At that moment, the Seven-Colored Golden Crystal Fish knew that he had lost, lost completely. At this moment, the eldest sister's heart was completely captured by the Black Dragon Fish.

Although the Black Dragon Fish made such a great contribution, the other two fish could be spared the death penalty, but not the living one.

That person was vicious, using great magic power to suppress the Seven-Colored Fish in this stone wall, so that the Seven-Colored Fish would never be able to turn over.

Because the eldest sister had not done evil, he allowed her to find a place to suppress herself for ten thousand and eight hundred years, and not to come out."

Even a fool like Li Ergou understood. He widened his eyes and said, "That Seven-Colored Fish is you? You mean, the big fish from whom I got the dragon scale is your eldest sister, the Divine Dragon Fish."

The Seven-Colored Fish nodded slightly and said, "You're smart, that's right."

Li Ergou looked at the huge figure of the Seven-Colored Fish and his heart tightened. Although he didn't know the true strength of this Seven-Colored Fish, he knew that this guy's cultivation was heaven-defying. Moreover, he had seen the Divine Dragon Fish in Old Dragon Pit. At this moment, he couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Who was so powerful back then?"
