Perhaps he thought that he had the cultivation of a Yang God Celestial Master. Even if we killed him in anger, as long as his Yang God was not destroyed, he could find a new body to resurrect.
Little did he know that I had already predicted his thoughts.
When he heard what I said, his expression changed drastically. He stood there in silence, as if he was weighing the pros and cons in his heart.
It could be seen that Huihui's matter was very important to the Liu Clan. It was enough to make the Elder in Black Robe try his best to keep it a secret.
However, after a while, the Elder in Black Robe relaxed and sighed softly. He seemed to know that he was at a complete disadvantage and did not have the capital to negotiate with us.
Helpless, he could only choose to compromise and tell us the details.
According to him, Huihui was indeed under house arrest in the Liu Clan's palace. Her life was not in danger yet, but with her current condition, she would definitely die within a month.
Hearing this, the snake spirit was furious. He walked to the Elder in Black Robe and lifted him up. He asked them what they had done to Huihui.
Since the Elder in Black Robe had chosen to speak, he naturally would not hide anything.
I learned from him that Huihui's bloodline was very special. Her blood contained a powerful force.
In addition, Huihui was about to transform into a Jiao. This kind of bloodline talent was even more coveted.
It had been thousands of years since a member of the Liu Clan had been able to successfully transform into a dragon. Now that a person with such a good bloodline like Huihui had suddenly appeared, the Liu Clan's royal family would naturally not let her go easily.
Speaking of this, I roughly understood. Huihui was the same as Yaoyao back then. They both had a bloodline that had not been seen in the clan for thousands of years.
However, the difference between the two was that the Qing Qiu Clan had elected Yaoyao as their leader to lead them back to the peak, while the Liu Clan's royal family coveted Huihui's bloodline talent and wanted to take it for themselves.
What puzzled me was that they had both lost their blood, but why was Yaoyao safe and sound?
Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that it might have something to do with the Fox King's blood that Yaoyao had obtained when she had advanced to become a Seal Celestial Master.
However, what made me even more curious was that Huihui was a member of the Liu Clan. The Liu Clan should have long known about the abnormality of her bloodline talent. Why did the Elder in Black Robe say that he had accidentally learned of it?
Thinking about this, I asked about the doubts in my heart. I wanted to find an answer from the black-clothed elder.
When he heard my question, he didn't dare to deny it. He quickly told me that the Liu family had a strict hierarchy. The members of the family were ranked according to their cultivation talents. When the children and grandchildren were born, their cultivation talents would be tested. Huihui was at the bottom of the family. A few hundred years ago, she had run away to avoid her marriage. However, when she returned to the family a few years ago, she caught the attention of the royal family. If it weren't for the fact that she had a relative who was still alive, she would have been treated as an alien.
However, the Black Clothed Elder did not know why she had become like this in these hundreds of years.
In this way, Huihui must have had a fortuitous encounter to possess her current natural talent.
However, the last time we saw her, she already showed signs of transforming into a Flood Dragon. At that time, her bloodline talent had already changed greatly.
As such, this matter must have happened some time ago.
The Snake Spirit and Huihui had lived together for a hundred years, so perhaps he should know about this.
Thinking so, I turned to look at the snake spirit.
He might have understood the meaning in my eyes, but he looked confused, indicating that he didn't know about this matter. Perhaps Huihui had some fortuitous encounter in the hundred years after he left.
In this way, it was possible.
Then, the Snake Spirit gestured for the Black Clothed Elder to lead the way.
It seemed that he planned to go to the Liu family palace to rescue Huihui.
However, this matter could not be so impatient.
The Black Clothed Elder in front of me was a Yang God Celestial Master and an Elder of the Liu family.
Imagine that an Elder was sent to be in charge of peripheral protection. It could be imagined that his strength was at the bottom of the list.
Based on the situation of the Qingqiu family, the cultivation of the highest ruler of the Liu family was at least at the peak of Yang God.
Of course, this was just my guess. We had not yet reached the Liu family's territory, so we could take this opportunity to understand the internal situation so that we could prepare early.
Otherwise, if this black-clothed elder were to secretly inform them and let them be on guard, wouldn't we be walking right into a trap then?
Although the Snake Spirit and I were strong, it was difficult for the two of us to fight against so many people. Moreover, we had never been to the Liu family's territory, so we didn't know what they had planned.
At that time, not only would we not be able to rescue Huihui, but we would also be trapped in a quagmire.
Thinking of this, I interrupted the Snake Spirit's words and called him aside to tell him what I was thinking.
After listening to me, the Snake Spirit frowned and thought for a while. He sighed and said, "Why don't we disguise as them and sneak in? What do you think?"
After listening to the Snake Spirit's idea, I did not rush to respond. Instead, I drove the three snake monsters away, leaving only the Black Clothed Elder.
At this time, my purpose was very clear. It was useless for the three of them to stay here. If we killed them, it would arouse the suspicion of the Liu family. Moreover, they were not the mastermind of this matter, nor did they get any benefits. They did not touch the core of the matter, so we had no reason to kill them.
More importantly, we could not delay this trip for too long. I could not miss the day of meeting with Tao Wu. The three of them were too low in status, so they could not easily get close to the Liu family palace.
On the contrary, if we let them go, they would provide us with a good cover.
The Snake Spirit's previous words reminded me that we could indeed disguise as the people of the Liu family.
However, the aura on our bodies was too different from that of the Liu family, so we had to prepare carefully.
Thinking of this, I summoned Tong Tong and handed the jade bracelet to her.
She looked at me with a puzzled expression, obviously not understanding what I meant.
Then, I whispered to her to use the jade bracelet to absorb all of the Monster aura in the Black Clothed Elder's body into the jade bracelet.
The most crucial step for us to disguise as the people of the Liu family was the Monster aura in the Black Clothed Elder's body.
As for his appearance, there was no need to worry too much. The reason why the Black Clothed Elder was wrapped in a long robe was that he didn't want others to know his appearance. This was the most advantageous condition for us.
After listening to my words, Tong Tong and the Snake Spirit were enlightened and exclaimed in understanding.
I didn't hide my words, so the Black Clothed Elder naturally heard everything.
However, he was already a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Facing the three of us, he couldn't resist at all.
However, he didn't lose the arrogance of an Elder of the Liu family. He didn't beg for mercy, which made me admire him a lot.
Since the matter had been explained, we didn't delay any further. I was afraid that the people who had left earlier would quickly find help to rescue him.
As such, I waved my hand to set up a witchcraft barrier around us. On the one hand, it prevented the Snake Spirit's aura from spreading, and on the other hand, it was convenient to collect the Black Clothed Elder's monster aura.
After that, I nodded at the Snake Spirit, indicating that we could begin.
After receiving the order, the Snake Spirit didn't hesitate. Its aura suddenly increased, pressing the Black Clothed Elder to kneel on the ground. His body trembled violently.
Then, I placed both of my hands on his forehead, intending to extract his Yang Spirit.
His current appearance made me feel pity for him.
This was the first time I had seen a Yang God Celestial Master not resist at the moment of life and death.
However, it was all because of the Snake Spirit's True Dragon's aura.
However, this pressure was effective against scale worms of the same or lower cultivation level. If their cultivation level was higher, I was afraid that there wouldn't be such a strong reaction.
However, pity was pity. If I wanted to successfully rescue Huihui, I had to use this method.
With this thought in mind, I put aside the distracting thoughts in my mind. The Taoist Qi in my body was activated to the extreme, and my hands formed sword fingers to extract the Black Clothed Elder's Yang Spirit from his body bit by bit.
When a person was about to die, they would naturally fight for it out of instinct. However, due to the tyrannical pressure of the Snake Spirit's True Dragon, the Black Clothed Elder couldn't resist it after several painful wails. The Yang Spirit in his Life Palace was completely extracted by me.
The moment the Yang Spirit left his body, I realized that the Black Clothed Elder's appearance was really not flattering. He had triangular eyes on his triangular face. No wonder he had hidden his appearance. However, the more he did this, the more I felt that it would work.
After the Yang Spirit left his body, thick black smoke was emitted from his body. This black smoke was monster aura.
Earlier, I had told Tong Tong about this matter. Naturally, she wouldn't neglect it. Her hands immediately produced pure Yin Qi, which surrounded the black smoke.
Then, the surrounding Yin Qi continued to shrink, gathering the black smoke into a ball and returning it to the jade bracelet.
After Tong Tong was done, the Black Clothed Elder's body turned into a giant black python that curled up into a ball. There was no trace of vitality.
Seeing this, I immediately retracted my attention and quickly used the soul-searching technique to transfer all the memories of the Black Clothed Elder's Yang Spirit to my body for my use.
After this matter was over, there was no need for the Black Clothed Elder's Yang Spirit to exist anymore.
Then, I took out the Xuanyuan Sword from my mouth. When the Xuanyuan Sword was full of Taoist Qi, the Nine Stars Heavenly Dipper under my feet fell at the same time and slashed at the Black Clothed Elder's Yang Spirit.
Under the Snake Spirit's True Dragon Pressure, the Yang Spirit's strength was greatly reduced. It was unable to withstand the sword energy that was full of Taoist Qi.
In the blink of an eye, the Xuanyuan Sword energy fell on the Celestial Master's Yang Spirit. When the two collided, there was no ripple.
In less than a few seconds, the Celestial Master's Yang Spirit completely disappeared from the world.
After doing this, I didn't stop there. I used the Celestial Master's Word Formula to explode the giant black python, turning it into smoke and dust that scattered with the wind.
This wasn't the time to relax. I hurried to ask the Snake Spirit to fly back to my back. Then, I asked Tong Tong to return to the jade bracelet.
Then, I put on the black robe on the ground. I whispered to Tong Tong to release some of the monster aura from the jade bracelet, covering my body.
I retracted the witchcraft energy barrier around me and sensed for a while. After confirming that there were no flaws, I exhaled and planned to go to the Liu family immediately.
