The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 3031 - 3006: The Strange Behavior of the Daogu Tribe
Previously on The Unparalleled Sword Emperor...
When Lin Bai, Ye Suxin, and Lin Ye arrived before the old tree, the blue-robed man and the white-robed man turned around, looking at Lin Bai, Ye Suxin, and the others.
"Brother Lin." The blue-robed man exclaimed in surprise.
The person was none other than Yan Ji.
Yan Ji possessed the Guan Tian Mu Martial Soul, which could see through all illusions in the world. When he arrived at the Seven Star Mountain Range, he climbed to the peak and immediately saw the location of the hidden entrance.
Yan Ji noticed Lin Bai’s somewhat indifferent and angry expression and curiously asked, "Brother Lin, what’s wrong with you? You seem to be in a bad mood!"
Lin Bai shook his head and said, "I was chased by rabid dogs for a while, that’s all."
As Lin Bai and Yan Ji chatted casually,
Ye Suxin, standing behind Lin Bai, fixed her gaze on the white-robed man.
Noticing Ye Suxin’s gaze, the white-robed man turned his head, silently glancing at Ye Suxin. His eyes were lifeless and gray, seemingly devoid of any luster.
"Bai Qing..." Ye Suxin exclaimed in her heart.
Bai Qing, one of the three legendary geniuses of the Southern Continent, rarely showed himself due to his reclusive nature. Therefore, many people were unaware that Bai Qing was actually a disciple of the Poison God Clan!
Bai Qing’s gaze met Ye Suxin’s, and at the moment their eyes collided in mid-air, Bai Qing’s heart stirred. He clasped his fist and shouted, "Lady, could it be that we know each other?"
Upon hearing Bai Qing’s words, Lin Bai also glanced at him silently, then turned his eyes towards Ye Suxin.
Ye Suxin withdrew her gaze, chuckled softly, and said, "We’ve never met!"
Bai Qing said expressionlessly, "That’s strange, why did I feel a sense of an old friend long lost in your eyes!"
Lin Bai listened to the conversation between Bai Qing and Ye Suxin, and was amazed.
Yan Ji chuckled, "Brother Lin, this is Bai Qing. You might have heard his name before, one of the three legendary geniuses of the Southern Continent, a core member of the Poison God Clan!"
Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, and he said, "Turns out a disciple of the Poison God Clan!"
Yan Ji then said to Bai Qing, "Bai Qing, this is Lin Bai, who won first place at the recent birthday celebration of the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures. His background might be no less mysterious than yours!"
Bai Qing glanced at Lin Bai without much interest, without further greetings.
Lin Bai also didn’t want to engage much with Bai Qing.
Lin Bai asked, "Yan Ji, what are both of you doing here?"
Yan Ji looked at the old tree in front and said solemnly, "This place is the entrance to the Dragon Tomb!"
Lin Bai was surprised, looking at the old tree before him.
In Yan Ji’s eyes, the flash of golden light from the Guan Tian Mu was clear, and Yan Ji could clearly see the rich seven-colored divine light emanating from the old tree in front, slowly drifting to the sky, gathering in the clouds!
Currently, all the seven-colored glows in the Seven Star Mountain Range were emanating from within this old tree.
Of course, only Yan Ji could see it; Lin Bai was unable to see the seven-colored divine light spreading from the old tree.
Ye Suxin curiously asked, "Since you’ve found this place to be the entrance to the Dragon Tomb, why not go in, instead of standing here for so long?"
Yan Ji chuckled lightly, "Miss Ye Suxin, you say it quite easily. Even after finding the entrance, going in might not be an easy task!"
Lin Bai was surprised and asked, "How so?"
Yan Ji smiled slightly, casually waved his hand, and summoned a stone from afar, tossing it towards the old tree.
Lin Bai watched the stone, when it flew three meters before the old tree, suddenly disintegrated into powder, as if crushed by a powerful force!
"Magic Circle?" Lin Bai’s eyes flashed.
Yan Ji whispered, "Yes, there is indeed an ancient magic circle hidden in this world. Bai Qing and I have searched here for a long time, but haven’t discovered the exact location of this magic circle!"
"The magic circle clearly exists, yet hasn’t left any traces!"
"This is very strange!"
Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, looking at the old tree, vaguely seeing a few sword marks and knife wounds.
Lin Bai curiously asked, "Traces have been left on the old tree!"
Bai Qing said faintly, "It was done by the Daogu Tribe! They found the entrance to the Dragon Tomb long ago, but unable to get in, attempted to use brute force to destroy the magic circle on the old tree!"
"Unfortunately, despite all their efforts, they couldn’t open the entrance’s magic circle. Instead, it was broken slightly, allowing the Dragon Qi within to spread out, which led to the seven-colored glow on the Seven Star Mountain!"
"I discovered this upon arriving here!"
Bai Qing said indifferently.
Ye Suxin asked, "Did you kill the Daogu Tribe warriors?"
Bai Qing nodded slightly, "Yes!"
While everyone was discussing in front of the old tree,
The powerful ones from the Daogu Tribe chasing Lin Bai also arrived at the scene.
Upon seeing the old tree, their eyes instinctively flickered. The leading old man coldly said, "Despicable thief, I’ll see where you can run to today?"
Yan Ji was taken aback and turned to look at Lin Bai.
Lin Bai coldly said, "I just mentioned that I was chased by rabid dogs, and now those rabid dogs have caught up!"
Yan Ji sighed, now realizing that it was the strong ones from the Daogu Tribe who were chasing Lin Bai.
Lin Bai suddenly turned back and coldly said to the hundreds of Daogu Tribe strong ones, "I’ve made it very clear, the Daogu Tribe warriors here weren’t killed by us! You’ve got the wrong people!"
The old man coldly retorted, "There are only a few outsiders here. If not you, then who else could it be? Regardless, today you must come with me back to the Daogu Tribe, until things are clarified, none of you can leave!"
Yan Ji was taken aback and asked, "Do I have to go too?"
The old man looked at Yan Ji, clearly recognizing Yan Ji’s identity, and said coldly, "Of course!"
Yan Ji chuckled, "It seems the Daogu Tribe is expending quite an effort to guard this secret!"
The old man coldly replied, "I don’t understand what you’re saying!"
Yan Ji chuckled lightly, "Isn’t it? You clearly discovered the Dragon Tomb long ago, which is why you dispatched warriors to guard here. But to mislead others, you pretended to explore the Seven Star Mountain Range along with us!"
"Haha!"
Yan Ji sneered and said.
The old man’s face darkened upon hearing this and coldly said, "Speaking nonsense, arrest them all and take them to the Daogu Tribe; let the Clan Leader decide!"
"Forward!"
The old man said coldly.
Lin Bai and Yan Ji maintained a composed demeanor, despite being in the presence of over a hundred Daogu Tribe warriors, they showed no fear or apprehension.
Bai Qing, on the other hand, paid no attention to the strong ones from the Daogu Tribe, his eyes firmly fixed on the old tree.
Suddenly, from the old tree came a thundering vibration.
Layers of ripples spread, revealing a dark door as if leading to the Nine Netherworld Hell.
As the dark door appeared, tiny bugs flew out from around the old tree, entering Bai Qing’s beast-controlling bag.
Bai Qing didn’t care about others and stepped inside.
