Chapter 20 The Demon Emperor Horn (1/2)

”I can make a life-bonded vow! This is not intentional! When I fell down, I couldn't react at all! I am Lyu Liang, a residence from Siji Village in Qingluo Town which was actually situated in Diqiu Country at the border of Wufang Territory. My family was only left with my father, and I came to the Immortal Palace to participate in the apprentice ceremony this time. My goal is to honour my family and ancestors! What happened just now was absolutely accidental. My admiration towards fairy senior was like the continuous flow of the river, and a bird that spread its wings for a long distance!” said Lyu Liang with his fastest talking pace throughout his life. Because he had no reason to hesitate, even if only a moment later, his little life was done here today.

”You, you... shameless pervert!” The girl in red was still gritting her teeth, but the invisible murderousness also dissipated.

”Hey, fairy senior, please let go of the anger. I promise that today's things will never pass on the ears of others! Also, I am thankful for the fairy senior for saving my life!” Lyu Liang bowed all the way down, but also secretly peeked the girl in red.

”I shouldn't have appeared to help him! Is it true that heaven had predicted him?” The red-clothed girl's anger faded slowly, and she looked up and down Lyu Liang. ”It turned out that he was at the Early-stage of Foundation Establishment, but why did the Heaven Peeking Beast not detect it? And, if I made the move a bit later, it seemed that he also had a hidden move that was not used. He is really a person with secrets!”

Lyu Liang did not know what the girl in red was thinking and still bowed his body anxiously, thinking about various coping ways for such situations.

”Count me unlucky! Never to mention this matter again, and not let anyone know. If not, even if I have to go to the ends of the earth, I will kill you and let you vanish!” After saying these threatening words, the girl in red turned her head to elsewhere. She seemed to remember something again, twisted back and said, ”Don't call my fairy senior, it's really awkward! My name is Shangguan Ying, a citizen of Tianshui Country. I was initially a child of a farmer's family. At the age of 12, my teacher chose me and took me as a disciple by her side. It has been five years since then, and I have reached the Early-stage of Gold Core. I don't want to take advantage of you, you call me Fairy Shangguan!”

Lyu Liang almost plummeted to the ground! People would die after comparison, and goods would be thrown after comparison! He had such an incredible fate to enter the Virtual Land and get the Five-element Bead, yet five years have passed, and he had only reached the Early-stage of Foundation Establishment! What about the girl? Also five years, and she was already at the Early-stage of Gold Core! This was probably the so-called genius!

”Then Fairy Shangguan, may I ask where we are now? What shall we do?” Since there was someone more capable than himself, Lyu Liang began to act innocent and stupid again.

Looking at Lyu Liang's shameless expression, Shangguan Ying secretly shook her head. Once again, she was skeptical about the results of Heaven's prediction.

”Well, I don't know where this is, I just follow the tiger demon in. This place seemed to isolate the Divine Sense. We shall explore the way, see if there is a way out.” Shangguan Ying cheered her spirit, and she had the feeling of being a senior for the first time ever since she was young.

She used to be with her master before, and those she saw were all the high-ranking people who had already reached the Void Return stage. Therefore, she always regarded herself as a junior. Unexpectedly, in this place, she was regarded as a senior. She could not help but feel a little proud.

So, two people, Shangguan Ying was in front, Lyu Liang was behind. They were groping together for the way. For this strange place, both of them were vigilant in all ways.

”Well, Fairy Shangguan, how come you were in the trial field? Is it convenient to talk?” Lyu Liang was the first to break the silence. Lyu Liang was also a normal man. In front of him, there was a gorgeous and beautiful fairy that countless men eyed for. He naturally could not be excused. Moreover, no one in the dark talked, which made Lyu Liang feel too dull.

”Ah? I, I just wanted to come in and see! Why? Can't I?” Shangguan Ying couldn't explain her true intentions. She simply retorted by the prestige of a senior. ”Right, I haven't asked you yet! Why are you at the Early-stage of Foundation Establishment? The Heaven Peeking Beast couldn't have missed you!”

”Oh, me? That's a coincidence. When I came in, I killed a yellow-haired big bear at the Peak Qi Refining stage. I happened to find a Bottleneck-breaking Pill in his abode! Before that, I got stuck at the bottleneck of Late-stage of Qi Refining, so I took it directly. Maybe it was an ultimate grade Bottleneck-breaking Pill, and after I took it, I broke through two levels!” Lyu Liang felt so guilty. How could he blurt such lies out? By right, if one rushed to save him without thinking of consequences, he should not hide anything from her. However, He had too many secrets, big secrets. Even if he had a good impression on Shangguan Ying, he could not just casually tell her everything.

After listening to Lyu Liang's explanation, Shangguan Ying rolled her eyes. Her heart was full of contempt, but she could not refute. She couldn't tell him that she had been following him since he came in! She really couldn't say that out.

So, in this way, they talked some nonsense while walking. The two people did not seem to be that nervous at the beginning. Eventually, they thought about the bizarre differences in the entire trial field.

”Fairy Shangguan, I think there was a conspiracy here. At first, I did wonder why a bear demon at the Peak Qi Refining stage could have the ultimate grade medicinal pill like Bottleneck-breaking Pill. Until then, the ape and the tiger demon took one cyan medicinal pill, I had some guessings. There should be someone who was providing them with medicinal pills! Although I didn't know what the purpose was, it was definitely not a good thing!” Lyu Liang combined with the current situation to tell Shangguan Ying about his speculation.

”You mean that there may be someone in the Sword Character Immortal Palace doing something ulteriorly?” Shangguan Ying was also a bit skeptical by now. After all, this was the site of the Sword Character Immortal Palace. Now there was such a thing happening and if to say there was no relationship, she would not even believe that herself!

”Right, what are we trapped here, will your master know?” Lyu Liang thought that since she was a pro-disciple of Almighty Immortal, she must have some life-saving method that could contact her master.
