Chapter 460
As they sat on the steep cliff, they heard the continuous cras.h.i.+ng of sea waves. Long Yi and Mu Hanyan looked down at the surface of the sea which was illuminated by the silvery starlight.
Currently, Long Yi was amazed in his heart. He had used his thoughts to instruct Long Two to break out of the encirclement. Technically, the only thing Long Yi did was to tell Long Two to return and not cause any harm. However, Long Two actually sliced off the light bishop’s beard. Could it be that Long Two had also learned how to poke fun at others from him?
“What kind of monster is that thing of yours?” Mu Hanyan finally lost it and started to question Long Yi.
Long Yi shrugged his shoulders and replied with a smile, “I have no idea as well. He might be a monster for all I know.”
“I feel as though he is the same as you… He possesses the same arrogance as you, not to mention the fact that both of you behave the same way…” Mu Hanyan rolled her eyes. When she recalled Long Two’s words, ‘overestimating your capabilities’, she was laughing in her heart. Even though Long Two said it in his mechanical voice, she still found it funny. She found it so funny that she overlooked the fact that Long Two was an undead creature with consciousness.
When Mu Hanyan was laughing at the side, Long Yi was deep in his thoughts. He didn’t want Dongfang Kexin to become cold blooded… She was acting like she didn’t care about anything with all of her feelings sealed up right now. What exactly does that hypocrite, Charles, want to do with her?
Although Dongfang Kexin’s strong possessive desire towards him gave him a headache, when all was said and done, she was his cousin. She was the beloved granddaughter of his grandfather (mother’s father) Dongfang Qiming. Long Yi didn’t want her to be reduced to a p.a.w.n in Charles’ hands.
When Long Yi was lost in his thoughts, Mu Hanyan turned to Long Yi and reminded him, “Your treasured monster is coming. He brought along that necromancer.”
“Your big white bird has really good sensory abilities.” Long Yi said with a smile.
The moment he finished his sentence, a shadow flashed before his eyes. Long Two held his terrifying Death Scythe as he stood in front of Long Yi and Mu Hanyan. After a few moments, the necromancer’s figure appeared on the cliff. When he saw that there were two people in front of Long Two, he hesitated. He had thought that
he was saved by Long Two, this undead creature with consciousness. However, out of his expectations, there seemed to be other people who were involved in his rescue. The necromancer had considered Long Two to be the ruler of the undead world, but now, it seemed like the skeleton was just a magic servant which belonged to the man before him.
“Little Two, since the guest you brought over it a little shy, you should bring him over to us.” Long Yi faintly smiled and prompted Long Two.
“Okay, big brother.” Long Two responded and turned to face the necromancer.
The second Long Two turned around to face him, the necromancer placed a sincere and fearful expression on his face. He hastily rushed over and started bowing to Long Yi, “Necromancer Dry Bones thank you for the kindness of saving my life.”
“Dry Bones? Heh heh, don’t mention it. We are all from the same family. Also, you have a kind heart. Even under so much pressure, you didn’t kill the little girl. You saved yourself, don’t have to thank me.” Long Yi smiled and explained. This necromancer’s name really suited his profession.
“My master once said that there was no such thing as righteousness or evilness when cultivating. The only thing which decided whether or not one was righteous or evil was their heart.” Dry Bones’ tone was filled with sadness when he mentioned his master.
Long Yi was startled. This was something he had seen in Bite Xiuge’s Undead Magic Notes. Long Yi couldn’t help but ask, “Who is your master?”
Dry Bones shook his head and replied, “I was adopted by my master since childhood. However, he never revealed his name to me. He said that he was afraid of losing the face of his ancestor. The only thing he told me was that my ancestor was the Undead Master Archmage, Bite Xiuge, who had shaken the world several hundred years ago.”
Sure enough, he was the successor of Bite.Xiuge. If he thought about it, wouldn’t he be fellow disciples with this Dry Bones? After all, his undead magic also originated from the Undead Magic Collection and notes which belonged to Bite.Xiuge. Long Two was also Bite Xiuge’s creation…
“Do you have any evidence that you are the successor of Bite.Xiugue?” Long Yi narrowed his eyes and dense dark qi spilled out from his body, pressuring Dry Bones.
Mu Hanyan’s eyes shone with a profound light as she stared at Long Yi. Her deep and serene beautiful pupils flickered twice… No one knew what this woman was thinking.
When he felt the pressure coming from Long
Long Yi’s body, Dry Bones’ body trembled. Soon after that, his eyes flashed with a hint of madness. It was stronger than the time when he had seen Long Two. Could it be that the wish of his master could be realized through this youth?
“There was only one thing ancestor pa.s.sed down…” Dry Bones slowly opened his left palm. On the center of his left palm, there was a blood red skull mark. An indistinct red light was undulating gently on his palm. It was exactly the same as the blood red skull mark on Long Yi’s hand…
Long Yi opened his left palm as well and exposed the blood skull on his hand. The moment the two blood red skull marks appeared, they twitched simultaneously. The red light became even more dazzling.
“Ah… You are……” Dry Bones exclaimed. He didn’t dare to believe what he was seeing, as he had never heard of his master accepting another disciple. Also, his master had only pa.s.sed down a single blood red skull mark. There was only supposed to be one. However, if that was the case, how could he explain the blood red skull mark on Long Yi’s hand?
