Wang Yu
Chapter 706 Invitation
In the intelligence gathered earlier, the Xuhe Clan had appeared more than once, but each time it was vaguely written, not because the clan was too secretive or because the Gray Lizard Clan was incompetent. It was because the Xuhe Clan belonged to a highly noble clan among all the races in the Gray Realm.
Low-level races like the Gray Lizard Clan were already at the bottom in a Black Tooth Domain, not to mention in the entire Gray Realm. The levels separating them were too many, so the information they could obtain was pitifully scarce.
Han Li only knew that the Xuhe Clan was the leading family of the Shao Hao Domain, and their affiliated forces belonged to the Reincarnation Domain, which was an antagonistic relationship with the Gray Realm native forces of the Ni Cituo Domain.
Apart from this, there was no more information about the Xuhe Clan. He never expected that the Gray Immortal corpse occupied by Mo Guang was actually a member of this clan before his death.
Although there had been an accident on the stone platform, the Green-skinned Ape, in its shock and fear, did not bother to stop the army, so the bloody slaughter on the shores of Bo Leng Lake continued. Many Gray Lizard Clansmen were affected and had already been beheaded under the butcher's knife.
"Mo Guang, immediately stop these people," Han Li transmitted his voice with a thought.
On the stone platform, Mo Guang heard this but did not act immediately. Instead, he turned back and glanced at Han Li.
This action caused everyone else on the stone platform to be puzzled, and they all looked up in this direction. Han Li cursed inwardly and quickly concealed his aura, pretending to be unconscious.
Inside his body, the Heavenly Devil Contract signed with Mo Guang had already begun to appear in his sea of consciousness.
Fortunately, Mo Guang only glanced once and did not make any unusual movements. Then, he turned to look at the Green-skinned Ape, put away his black folding fan, interlaced the fingers of both hands to stretch his wrist joints, and grinned, revealing a row of neat white teeth.
Looking at the handsome young man in front of her, all the panic in the Black-clothed Girl's heart disappeared in an instant, and her heart was stirred by his smile.
In contrast to Miao Xiu's feelings, the Green-skinned Ape only felt that the smile of the person in front of him was extremely terrifying. The white teeth seemed to want to suck his blood and devour his flesh. His whole body was filled with cold air, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He clenched his teeth, and the black conch shell was already tightly held in his hand again, hoping to use this secret treasure bestowed by the Domain Lord to gain a chance of survival.
However, as soon as the thought arose, a voice like a demon's whisper came to his ears: "What are you planning?"
Mo Guang's body had turned into a gray mist at some unknown time, and unknowingly wrapped around him like a python, with only his head remaining in human form, suspended outside his cheek.
"Ah..." The Green-skinned Ape screamed in horror, feeling his soul flying away.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Mo Guang had already turned into strands of gray mist, pouring into his body through his seven orifices such as eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
The Green-skinned Ape's face was full of pain. He dropped the mace and the black conch shell in his hands, pinched his neck with his palms, staggered backward, and after a few steps, he fell to the ground with a "bang."
After his body completely stopped moving, strands of gray mist emerged from his seven orifices, re-condensed into human form, and once again transformed into the elegant young master.
But when he shook the fan, he couldn't help but burp, which was a bit of a buzzkill.
Miao Xiu and others were shocked by this bizarre scene, their mouths slightly open, unable to speak for a long time.
Mo Guang bent down and picked up the black conch shell. After looking at it for a while, he paused briefly, and then strands of rich baleful aura surged from his palm, wrapping and refining it.
After a moment, he held the conch shell in one hand and flicked it gently with his finger. A black light rippled out, sweeping across all directions in an instant, stirring up subtle ripples on the surface of Bo Leng Lake.
After being swept by this halo, all the people of the Black Tooth Domain felt their minds relax, and the chaotic and weak feeling they had before disappeared. Then, they stood up one after another and fought with the people of the Ni Cituo Domain.
Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong also took the opportunity to stand up, but did not participate in the fighting, but rushed towards the stone platform.
On the stone platform, Mu Qiu, seeing the Green-skinned Ape being easily killed, had an extremely pale face, and the gills beside his cheeks kept moving. He turned around and wanted to escape towards Bo Leng Lake.
However, before he could move, the patriarch of the Thorn Bone Clan had already jumped up and blocked his path.
Another tall woman with gray skin and pointed ears, and Miao Kui also sprang out from the left and right, surrounding him in the center.
"Kill him," Miao Xiu said, without any emotion in her eyes, directly issuing the order.
The three did not hesitate at all, and immediately used their methods to attack and kill Mu Qiu.
"Shan Gui Clan, Feng Wei Clan, Gray Sickle Clan, listen to my orders, organize your clansmen, and immediately launch a counterattack..."
"Qing Li Clan, Ni Niu Clan, Tu Wan Clan, go around the wings of Bo Leng Lake and chase after them. Our numbers are not dominant, so there is no need to completely block the death, just kill as many enemy troops as possible..."
"Miao Zong, you and a few others command the remaining tribes, ambush the tribal chiefs of the enemy, and chase down the scattered fleeing enemy troops..."
A series of instructions were issued from Miao Xiu's mouth. The tribal chiefs of the Black Tooth Domain successively took orders, flew away from the stone platform, and organized the remaining tribesmen to counterattack the Ni Cituo Domain army.
Seeing that their leader had been killed, the armies of the Ni Cituo Domain were immediately demoralized. The tribes of the Black Tooth Domain were eager for revenge and pursued them extremely fiercely, forcing the Ni Cituo army to retreat into Bo Leng Lake.
After Mo Guang made a move, he no longer continued to kill people. Instead, he leisurely came to the edge of the stone platform, lightly shaking the black folding fan in his hand, watching the mixed battles of the various tribes below with great interest, with a faint smile on his lips.
Han Li and Shi Chuan Kong dodged the swords and shadows all the way from the chaotic battlefield and landed on the stone platform.
Shi Chuan Kong looked at Mo Guang in front of him, his expression did not change much, but his heart was like a stormy sea. When he looked at Han Li again, his gaze became deeper.
"Fellow Daoist Li, this is..." After hesitating again and again, he asked in a low voice hesitantly.
"You can call him Fellow Daoist Mo Guang, his identity is a bit special, he is considered a contracted ally of mine. It was inconvenient for him to show himself before due to some reasons, but it will be fine in the future," Han Li explained concisely.
Mo Guang did not speak, but nodded at Shi Chuan Kong with a smile. The latter also gave him a salute with a complicated expression.
"I saw in some records of the Gray Lizard Clan that the Xuhe Clan has three major surnames, namely Tusu, Dongling, and Jiang. You will call yourself Jiang Gu in the future, and the two of us will be your retainers," Han Li transmitted his voice.
"Shi Chuan Kong," Shi Chuan Kong said after a slight hesitation, cupping his fists.
Mo Guang nodded, acknowledging it, and then pouted and said, "The name Jiang Gu is not very pleasant, it always feels like it means about to pass away."
Han Li frowned slightly and was about to speak when he saw Miao Xiu in black had already walked over.
Stopping a few steps away, she bowed towards them and said respectfully, "This junior is Miao Xiu, the daughter of the patriarch of the Three Miao Clan of the Black Tooth Domain. May I ask for your esteemed name, Senior?"
Hearing this, Mo Guang turned around, a smile on his face, and looked up and down at the black-clothed girl unscrupulously. He was about to speak when he suddenly heard Han Li's voice in his mind: "Fellow Daoist Mo Guang, being in another world, please be cautious in your words and deeds."
"Hehe, so it's the young master of the Three Miao Clan. My name is Jiang Gu, and these two are my retainers Li Han and Shi Chuan Kong," Mo Guang paused slightly, then said with a smile.
Han Li and the two then stepped forward and saluted Miao Xiu.
"Today, thanks to Senior's help, otherwise the various tribes of my Black Tooth Domain would have been severely injured by the Ni Cituo Domain army," Miao Xiu did not dare to be negligent, and returned the salute again.
"Miss Miao is too polite. I just happened to pass by your Black Tooth Domain. I didn't intend to get involved, but unfortunately, that Green-skinned Monkey was too annoying," Mo Guang said casually, shaking his folding fan lightly.
"The sudden attack by the various tribes of the Ni Cituo Domain is already considered a declaration of war against our Black Tooth Domain. I need to return to my tribe as soon as possible to report all this to my father. Senior, as the savior of our Black Tooth Domain, you must give us a chance to fulfill our hospitality," Miao Xiu said solemnly with a solemn expression.
After hearing this, Mo Guang did not answer immediately, making a contemplative and hesitant gesture. In fact, he was asking Han Li in his heart, how should he answer?
"It doesn't matter, we don't have a clear goal at the moment. It's not bad to settle down in a safe place first, and there is more information we need there," Han Li transmitted to Mo Guang.
"Since Miss Miao invites us so sincerely, we can't refuse Miss's kindness, so we'll go and bother you. It's just that I don't want to publicize my trip this time, so please be sure to keep my whereabouts secret for me, and it's best not to mention it to your father for the time being," Mo Guang looked at Miao Xiu and said pretending to be serious.
"Senior, rest assured, I will not reveal any news before arriving at You He City. It's just that after arriving, I will truthfully report to my father... Of course, I will also ask him to keep it a secret for Senior," Miao Xiu said with great joy.
"Very good," Mo Guang nodded and said.
"Then allow this junior to deal with the aftermath of these matters first, and then arrange for the trip to You He City," Miao Xiu said to Mo Guang and Han Li with clasped hands.
Mo Guang did not speak any more, but waved his hand, indicating that she could leave on her own.
After Miao Xiu left, Mo Guang looked at the bloody slaughter scene below the stone platform, took a deep breath towards the void, with a satisfied expression on his face, filled with rich and substantial baleful aura everywhere.
"Fellow Daoist Li, is it too risky for us to go deep into the capital of a Gray Realm lord like this?" Shi Chuan Kong glanced at Miao Xiu who was leaving, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes, and said.
"It doesn't matter, with Fellow Daoist Mo Guang and his Xuhe Clan identity, the people of the Three Miao Clan dare not and will not investigate us carefully. It is we ourselves who need to be careful and cautious to prevent revealing any flaws," Han Li said slowly.
After hearing this, Shi Chuan Kong did not speak any more, but the worry in his eyes did not decrease at all.
