Chapter 510 (1/2)
”But…… But what?” Murong Shuyu reflexively retreated two steps back and hugged her chest with a red face. When she thought about the events which happened in that prison cell, her entire body heated up. She involuntarily stuttered and she wasn't able to speak clearly to Long Yi.
”Why are you so nervous? I won't eat you again.” Long Yi said with a smile. This was the reaction he wanted from Murong Shuyu.
”Who knows?” Murong Shuyu mumbled. Just a moment ago, wasn't he about to eat her up without even leaving the bones?
”Hehe, I'll tell you about the situation below this cell if you take me to the place where your Murong Clan lives in seclusion. How about it?” Long Yi asked with a smile.
”Aren't you just intentionally making things difficult for me?” Murong Shuyu was startled and she furiously shook her head. It seemed as though she was unwilling to leak the place where the Murong Clan lived in seclusion even if she was beaten to death.
”Fine. I'll make it simple for you, take me to find Murong Bo.” Long Yi smirked and said.
Murong Shuyu snorted and turned to leave. She dared to confirm that this d.a.m.ned fellow was intentionally making things difficult for her. Her grandfather, Murong Bo, was at the clan currently. If she took him to look for Murong Bo, wasn't that the same as leading him to the place where the Murong Clan lived in seclusion?
”Hey, little Yu'er, okay. I'll change the condition again. How about a kiss?” Long Yi shouted from behind Murong Shuyu.
The footsteps of Murong Shuyu stopped. She wanted to turn around, but if she turned back now and kissed him, wouldn't she die of embarra.s.sment? After a short moment of hesitation, Murong Shuyu ran away even faster..
This girl… Long Yi smiled and shook his head. He was just about to chase after her when his gaze landed on the stiffened corpse of the old man. Although Long Yi didn't know who he was, no matter what other people said, he was a n.o.bleman. If it was not for him, Long Yi wouldn't have gotten the opportunity to discover the secret below the Heaven Forbidden Prison. Long Yi felt that he should give the old man a proper burial.
After thinking about it, Long Yi carried the body of this old man out of the Heaven Forbidden Prison. He didn't return to look for Murong Shuyu. In any case, that girl couldn't escape from his palm.
Long Yi arrived at the peak located at the western suburbs of Soaring Dragon City with the corpse of the old man. This place was wide and had a fine scenery. He wouldn't be disgracing the old man if he buried the corpse here.
This peak was heavily fortified by hard rocks, but Long Yi just waved his hand and easily dug up a hole. He placed the old man's body into that hole.
”Uncle, rest in peace. Although you were imprisoned during your lifetime, you are finally free now.” Long Yi softly said and he picked up a large stone beside him to cover the hole.
Just as he was about to cover the hole with the stone, Long Yi became surprised and his actions slowed down. He threw the large stone to the side. Just now, he unexpectedly sensed a weak fluctuation of life coming from this old man.
”Can it be that he is faking his death?” Long Yi thought about it and lifted the body of this old man. However, he felt as though the body of this old man was as hard as iron.
With no other choice, Long Yi concentrated his spirit power around this old man. In his previous world, there was a world famous turtle ** which allowed one to enter a suspended animation state without a pulse and heartbeat. Merely, their body would not turn stiff and hard like a dead person.
After a long time, even after the sun had already reached the top of his head, the tiny fluctuation of life didn't appear again.
”It seemed like I really imagined it.” Long Yi sighed in his heart and wanted to bury him again. Just as he was about to bury the old man, the fluctuation of life appeared again. The time interval between the two fluctuations was unexpectedly four hours. Fortunately, Long Yi was patient.
When the second fluctuation of life appeared, Long Yi became certain that it wasn't an illusion. This old man was indeed still alive. He might have cultivated special kind of technique which could create this kind of phenomenon.
Long Yi thought about it… An old man was imprisoned in that prison cell made of unknown metal. Without food and water, he was ultimately exhausted after digging that hole. Therefore, to save his life, he used this kind of technique hoping that he could protect himself. Today, were it not for Long Yi, even if he didn't die in prison, he would have been buried alive.
Even though it was early in the morning, the Ximen Residence was lively. Since the return of Long Yi, many servants had been doing their work with enthusiasm. Moreover, a few more G.o.ddess-like beauties arrived with Long Yi. Needless to say, they were definitely Young Madams.
”That child… Where did he go so early in the morning? Xiangyun, do you know when Yu'er left?” At the dining table, Dongfang Wan looked at Nangong Xiangyun and asked.
”No…… I don't know.” The beautiful face of Nangong Xiangyun became red. She became extremely embarra.s.sed as she slept till noon. Only the ghosts knew when he went out.
”I know, I know! Father must have gone out to look for a beautiful big sister.” At that time, Niur who was eating her food suddenly looked up and said in her immature voice.
”Niur, don't speak nonsense.” Liu Xu glared at Niur and said in a low voice.
Liuli and Feng Ling covered their mouth and laughed up their sleeve. It seemed as though Niur knew Long Yi extremely well. Long Yi's l.u.s.tful heart was well known by everyone.
When they were all laughing, the neatly dressed Ximen Nu walked out from the inner room and asked, ”Why are all of you laughing? Where did that stinking kid go again?”
Ximen Nu could be considered to be fairly amiable towards these daughters-in-law. Compared to that strict countenance in front of other people, it was as far apart as heaven and earth.
