Chapter 636: Thirty Years Like a Dream (IV)
There was silence all around, complete stillness, except for the rising and falling howls of beasts in the distance that echoed in the air.
Facing the calm Wei Changtian and looking at the Bailing Mountain that had fallen into chaos, Su Xiu's body slid down the wall of the Dragon Locking Formation little by little until she fell to the ground powerlessly.
She clenched her teeth tightly, and the hatred in her eyes had reached its peak.
"stop."
He uttered the two words hoarsely, but his tone was not pleading.
Su Xiu stared at Wei Changtian with red eyes, her voice full of determination to die together.
"Otherwise, I will order the fox demon to be killed right now."
"Wei Changtian, don't think I don't dare."
“.”
As mentioned before, Su Xiu's only bargaining chip is Yang Liushi.
Now that the situation has developed to this point, she can only play this trump card in an attempt to threaten Wei Changtian to stop killing.
Su Xiu was very clear that the more decisive she was now, the greater the deterrent effect would be.
Whether it is a threat or revenge, only by making Wei Changtian believe that he really dares to kill people, the latter will be afraid.
Therefore, at this moment, she was still holding on to her last bit of courage, and her psychological defenses had not been completely broken.
But "Demon King."
Facing Su Xiu's threat, Wei Changtian's expression remained calm, and there was even a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth.
"If I remember correctly, I never told you my name before?"
“.”
Her eyes suddenly widened, and Su Xiu instantly realized her slip of the tongue.
Panic flashed across her eyes, but she forced herself to suppress the panic in her heart, staring at Wei Changtian without saying a word, making it clear that she would not say another word.
On the other hand, Wei Changtian didn't ask any further questions.
"Okay, I'll just assume you're well-informed."
"As for the murder you just mentioned, the person is in your hands, you can kill him if you want, what do you need me to believe?"
"Didn't I just tell you?"
"This person is the same as the demon. The more he wants to prove something, the more false it is."
"What? You forgot this sentence so quickly?"
Having said that, Wei Changtian stopped looking at Su Xiu and turned his head to glance at Li Huaizhong.
"Eunuch Li, why did you stop?"
"Well"
Li Huaizhong shuddered and shivered because of Wei Changtian's look.
Just now, after hearing Su Xiu's threat, he stopped killing the monster, for fear of angering the latter and actually killing Yang Liushi.
But now. "Old, old slave knows his mistake!"
After admitting his mistake with his head down, Li Huaizhong immediately waved his palm again, and in an instant it hit a maid in a red dress.
"Bang!!"
Like a stone falling into water, blood mist filled the sky.
The maid's death was more tragic than that of any other monster before her. It must be because Li Huaizhong failed to control the strength of his attack in his haste.
Seeing this scene, Su Xiu's pupils suddenly contracted, and she felt as if she had been hit by an invisible boulder, and her body was shaking.
And Wei Changtian actually said something with a smile at this time.
"Well, remember to catch up with the ones you missed just now."
“.”
Make up for the ones that were missed just now. The cold-bloodedness and cruelty implied in this sentence made everyone gasp.
However, Wei Changtian didn't care about all this. He just turned around and looked at Su Xiu again.
"Monster King, I am a man of my word. Since I said I would kill one monster in three breaths, I cannot leave any behind."
"As for my concubine, you can kill her if you want."
"But I still have to remind you that if she dies, you will no longer be able to complete the two things I mentioned."
"You should know what this means"
Although Wei Changtian did not finish his words, Su Xiu understood his meaning very well.
If that "Miss Liu" was really dead, then according to what Wei Changtian said, he would definitely kill all the monsters on Bailing Mountain one by one.
At this moment, Su Xiu no longer doubted whether Wei Changtian could do this, but she was still unwilling to believe that the latter did not care about Yang Liushi's life or death.
After all, if this was really the case, why would he bring so many experts to Bailing Mountain to ask for someone? "Wei Changtian, you can't fool me."
Looking at Wei Changtian coldly, Su Xiu really used up the last bit of her strength to pretend to be calm.
"I will also give you the last three breaths of time to consider."
"After three breaths, if you still don't stop, then wait for that fox demon to collect his corpse!"
"three!"
“.”
Su Xiu's hoarse voice was filled with hatred. The word "three" echoed in everyone's ears, and also changed the expressions of Wei Zhaohai and others.
Li Huaizhong, in particular, immediately turned his head to look at Wei Changtian, waiting for the latter's decision.
However, he learned his lesson this time. He did not stop on his own initiative before Wei Changtian spoke, and continued to swing his palm towards the monster according to the rhythm.
"Bang!!"
There was a muffled sound, and in the distance there was a mass of blood and flesh churning.
At the same time, Su Xiu uttered the second word coldly.
"two!"
“.”
Two breaths had passed after three breaths, and Su Xiu's expression became increasingly cold.
Wei Zhaohai frowned, took a few steps forward, and was ready to do something.
He knew very well the purpose of their visit to Bailing Mountain.
Therefore, Wei Zhaohai knew that Wei Changtian would definitely not care about Yang Liushi's life or death.
However, Wei Zhaohai glanced at the expressionless Wei Changtian from the corner of his eyes. He felt somewhat puzzled, not understanding why his grandson could be so calm at such a time, as if he was not prepared to say a word at all.
Such doubts also exist in the minds of Li Huaizhong, Yu Qi and Zuo Huiyu.
They all knew Wei Changtian's friendship for Yang Liushi, otherwise the former would never have borrowed them all the way from the capital to Liangzhou, let alone made the trip in person.
But since Yang Liu’s poem is so important, why is Wei Changtian silent now?
Isn’t he afraid that Su Xiu will really kill Yang Liushi?
The four of them couldn't figure it out, but they all knew that they must not speak carelessly at the moment.
The room fell into dead silence, and the coldness in Su Xiu's eyes faded away little by little in the silence.
When Li Huaizhong had killed another monster, but the last word "one" had never been heard, everyone finally understood the answer to the question.
It turned out that Wei Changtian had already determined that Su Xiu was bluffing, and that she would never dare to use the entire Bailing Mountain to bury Yang Liushi.
"Go, go and bring her here."
Su Xiu knelt weakly on the ground, lowered her head and spoke in a low voice.
The maid in green who had been standing not far away suddenly widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Your Majesty! This."
"Go ahead."
Su Xiu slowly raised her face, a few strands of messy black hair covering her eyes that no longer had any spirit.
She looked at the maid in green, shook her head sadly, and interrupted, "Hurry up, one more person will die every three breaths."
“.”
The maid was stunned, but in the end she didn't say anything more. She turned around and ran quickly in one direction.
Wei Changtian turned around and nodded slightly to Wei Zhaohai, who immediately understood and followed him.
The two of them quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, and the atmosphere in the room finally eased for the first time.
However, when Wei Changtian opened his mouth again and said something calmly, the air immediately became stagnant again.
"Demon King."
"Don't forget, there is another thing."
