1600 Forming an Alliance (2/2)
”Are you speaking the truth?” The demon seemed to have a change of heart.
”Of course! You lend me the Black Dragon Riders, and I'll find a way to help you break the seal! Also, I will make sure to give you one Expiate Heart Returning Talisman! This is a win-win deal with no downsides that you have no reason to refuse!”
”Indeed! If I don't leave with you this time, I'm afraid that I won't be able to see daylight for the next few centuries! But I have one more request – you have to help me with my revenge!”
”Revenge?” Chen Xiaobei lowered his voice. ”Are you talking about the Jade Emperor? I'm afraid I cannot help you with that.”
”Oh, you're think too much! In my current condition, I cannot even consider that grudge! What I want you to do is to help me kill that dog Xu Fu!”
”Xu Fu?” Chen Xiaobei took a moment to digest his words. ”According to you, he's already become an Earth God thousands of years ago. Wouldn't he have already become a deity by now?”
”No!” The demon was certain. ”That dog is definitely still in the underworld! If he could become a deity, he would already have paid this place a visit to destroy my soul!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded. ”Alright! I can promise to help avenge you, but I'm still quite weak so we cannot rush this. I'll need time to come up with a plan!”
”Of course! You are my only hope. I do not wish to see you die in vain either!”
”Good! In that case, let's officially form an alliance! Live together, die together! Help each other through thick and thin!” Chen Xiaobei said ceremonially.
”Live together, die together! Help each other through thick and thin!” The demon nodded in confirmation.
Swoosh!
After that, the dark demon's body dispersed and returned to the coffin.
”Black Doors! Open!”
A magnetic and imposing voice called out from inside the box.
That was his majesty Ying Zheng's voice, of course.
Buzz…
There was a wave of energy, and a black portal slowly tore open in the void.
Ying Zheng said, ”Go through this door and you'll reach the peak of Mount Li. You'll be able to leave the mausoleum once and for all!”
”Alright! Let's go!” Chen Xiaobei waved his hand and the coffin was stored inside the Infinite Space Ring. He then led the people out.
At the peak of Mount Li.
The people felt as though they had walked through hell and finally returned to earth; it was as if they had regained a whole new life, and Chen Xiaobei was now their father!
Everyone was deeply grateful towards Chen Xiaobei, and thanked him from the bottom of their hearts. Zhou Daoxian and the nine other men were no exception. Of course, whether or not it was sincere was still a question mark.
Anyway, in Chen Xiaobei's eyes, they were like harmless little ants. It was good, of course, if they were sincere but if they still wished to plot against him, Chen Xiaobei would not mind giving them a gift of death!
Ding! Ring! Ring!
Back on the surface, with mobile signal now restored, Chen Xiaobei received a phone call from Bai Linsu.
