Chapter 867 Ancient Mirror
"Where did you find him?" Zhou Wen looked at Liuyun. He was a little surprised as to why Liuyun was so concerned about this matter.
"What a coincidence! I was originally here waiting for you. I figured that after you possessed the Earth Beast, you would most likely come to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. But after waiting for so long, I didn't see you. Instead, I spotted Xie Yukun selling things at the market. I recognized him as one of those people. So I secretly followed him, but he discovered me."
Liuyun paused, then continued, "Who am I, Liuyun? He's naturally no match for me. To save his life, this old guy told me some things. I then learned that he had indeed gone to Zhuolu and, along with several other people, was responsible for supervising the work of the expedition team. However, later on, the others disappeared along with the expedition team. He claimed that he escaped the disaster because he returned to the base due to illness that day. Naturally, I don't believe this."
"Then what?" Zhou Wen felt that this matter was becoming more and more strange.
He felt that the old man was most likely Jing Daoxian, but Liuyun said he was Xie Yukun and was related to the Zhuolu expedition team, which was a bit strange.
"Then he talked to me about some random things, saying that there were some good things in the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, and that he had a way to get in. I saw that he seemed to really know a lot about the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, and I was also very curious about why he was so anxious to get in. So I agreed to cooperate with him first, to stabilize him temporarily, and then wait for you to come." Liuyun said.
Zhou Wen looked at Liu Yun for a long moment before asking, "Why are you interested in the expedition team?"
"Ahem, of course it's because I care about you, Junior Brother. I know you're very concerned about this matter, so I helped you check it out." Liuyun changed the subject and said, "If you don't believe me, we'll capture Xie Yukun and torture him yourself. Then you'll know if I'm lying to you."
"I hit him? I'm afraid that we will both be beaten to a pulp." Zhou Wen said with a sneer.
"Don't worry. Although the old man has some skills, he is no match for us brothers. I can deal with him alone." Liuyun said proudly.
Zhou Wen looked at Liu Yun and saw that he didn't seem to be faking it, so he said to him, "I don't know why you're interested in this matter, but that old man, I don't know if he's Xie Yukun, I just think he looks like someone."
"Who?" Liuyun saw Zhou Wen's serious expression and felt something was wrong, so he asked hurriedly.
"Jingdaoxian." Zhou Wen said those three words.
When Liuyun heard these three words, his expression suddenly changed. He said in disbelief, "Impossible? How could he be Jing Daoxian?"
"Anyway, I won't go to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. You can do whatever you want." Zhou Wen said as he was about to leave, but he and Liuyun passed each other. He looked ahead and his face suddenly changed.
The old man suddenly appeared on the road ahead, smiling at the two of them. Zhou Wen immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Liuyun wanted to call Zhou Wen, but when he turned around, he saw the old man and his expression changed.
"Old man Xie, when did you come?" Liuyun also knew that something was wrong. Xie Yukun appeared so close to them, but he didn't even notice it.
The old man ignored him, looked at Zhou Wen with a smile and said, "I didn't expect you to recognize me. It's a bit beyond my expectation."
"It's hard not to recognize someone like you." Zhou Wen said to Jing Daoxian. The old man's words had clearly admitted that he was Jing Daoxian.
Jing Daoxian remained noncommittal. "Since you're interested in the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, why don't we go in together? You should know that even if I kill everyone in the world, I wouldn't want you to die. There's no need for you to be wary of me."
"You...you are really Jing Daoxian?" Liuyun widened his eyes and looked at Jing Daoxian in disbelief.
The number one devil in the Federation, he actually beat the number one devil in the Federation before, and now he is still standing here safely. Now Liuyun himself feels his legs a little weak.
"It seems you are waiting for me too?" Zhou Wen stared at Jing Daoxian and said.
"Originally, I wanted to wait until the Zhang family's Earth Beast was auctioned off before taking it back. However, since you took the Earth Beast, it's naturally not appropriate for me to take your things back. I can only wait for you here." Jing Daoxian said.
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. I have to leave. You and my senior brother are both so interested in the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, so you should go together." Zhou Wen said.
Liuyun's face turned green, and he forced a smile and said, "I'm not really interested. I was just joking before. Don't take it to heart, old man."
Jing Daoxian remained expressionless and sighed, "Originally, it wouldn't have mattered if you two didn't go, but now one of you has taken the Earth Beast and the other has the Qin Emperor Sword. These two items are essential for entering the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, so no matter what, I have no choice but to ask you to accompany me."
"What if I say no?" Zhou Wen was ready to fight or flee.
Jing Daoxian smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. I've already said that even if everyone in the world dies, I will keep you alive, so you don't need to consider me an enemy. However, you must accompany me on this trip to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor. I'm too old and too weak. I need some help to stay alive."
"That's your business, what does it have to do with me?" Zhou Wen said as he stepped back. Although Jing Daoxian treated him as an experimental subject, the possibility of him killing him was indeed not high.
But who knows what kind of plans Jing Daoxian has, it’s better to stay away from him as much as possible.
Zhou Wen witnessed the fate of Jiu Ye and Xia Jiuhuang with his own eyes. There was no doubt that those two people were also Jing Daoxian's experimental subjects.
"Zhou Wen is not going, so it's pointless for me to go. I'll leave this sword to you. I'm leaving now. If you have anything to say, please talk to my junior brother slowly." Liuyun put the ancient sword on the ground and he was also backing away.
Jing Daoxian did not stop them, but slowly took out something. It was an ancient bronze mirror. The mirror surface was blurry and the shadow reflected by it was also blurry.
When Zhou Wen saw the ancient mirror, he felt that something was wrong, so he immediately summoned the earth beast and wanted to escape underground.
The speed of the flowing cloud was not slow either, like a meteor, it rushed into the woods quickly.
Jing Daoxian had no intention of stopping them. He took the ancient mirror and slowly turned it. Then a strange scene happened. Zhou Wen, who had already escaped through the earth, and Liuyun, who had rushed into the woods, actually retreated back.
"Follow me!" Jing Daoxian walked with the ancient mirror in his arms. Zhou Wen and Liuyun were unable to control their bodies. They were pulled like puppets towards the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor.
