Chapter 624 Orb
Liuyun fled back to the town, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he went back to the small supermarket on the corner, picked up some things, and came out after a while.
"Junior brother should be fine, right? He won't be killed, right?" Liuyun glanced in the direction of the lake and muttered to himself.
But a moment later, Liuyun muttered to himself as if to comfort himself, "The one the teacher has chosen shouldn't die so easily. Besides, since he dares to target the Chimera, his companion pet must be extraordinary, no less powerful than the Lamp Demon. Add to that the golden sword and the six-winged guardian dragon, even if he can't defeat the Mountain God, he should be able to escape with his life."
After thinking for a moment, Liuyun took out a bottle of wine from the package and placed it on the table at the door. He transformed his finger into a sword and wrote a line of words on the wall next to it: "Junior Brother, thank you for your help. I stole this bottle of old wine from the God's Family with great difficulty. It is over a hundred years old. I thank you for your kindness. Don't worry about me, Senior Brother. We will meet again if we are destined to meet again."
"What a pity! I don't know if my junior brother knows anything about wine. If he doesn't, it would be a waste." Liuyun took a look at the bottle of wine and muttered to himself reluctantly.
After saying that, Liuyun prepared to leave.
"Keep the wine for yourself, and keep what you just took from the flower as atonement." A voice came from the roof not far away.
Liuyun's expression changed drastically. He looked up and saw Zhou Wen standing on the rooftop opposite. A smile immediately spread across his face. "Junior brother, you are truly better than me. You killed that mountain god so quickly. You are much stronger than me, your senior brother. No wonder the teacher values you so much and called you to his side before leaving. You are indeed outstanding people."
Liuyun said this as he stepped aside, looking like he was about to escape.
"If I were you, I would just stand there and not move." Zhou Wen did not try to stop him, but just said it lightly.
"I also want to have a good chat with you, little junior brother, but the Supervisory Bureau is chasing us too closely. If I stay here, I'm afraid that I will implicate my little junior brother, and that wouldn't be good. Senior brother, I'd better go first." Liuyun said as he suddenly exerted force on his feet and wanted to rush out.
But as soon as he exerted force with his feet, the ground beneath his feet suddenly exploded, as if he had stepped on a landmine. Liuyun reacted quickly enough and rolled out, relieving most of the force of the explosion. However, wherever his body rolled to the ground, the ground exploded.
"ah!"
Screams and explosions were heard. When Liuyun stopped, his body was charred all over, his hair stood up and was still smoking.
"Junior brother, I didn't expect you to be proficient in life explosion? No, what you are exploding is not a living thing, it shouldn't be life explosion, what kind of skill is this?" Liuyun stood where he was, not daring to move, and asked Zhou Wen with a forced smile.
"I don't know what skill it is. If you are interested, you might as well go and try it." Zhou Wen said lightly.
Just now when Liuyun was packing up, he had already controlled the Explosive Demon to set up many timed explosions nearby, just to prevent Liuyun from escaping.
"Junior brother, you and I are from the same sect, so why bother? How about this, you and I can each have half of this treasure." Liuyun took something out of his pocket.
Zhou Wen looked carefully and saw that the thing in Liuyun's hand was a blood-colored bead, as big as a billiard ball, blood-red and crystal clear all over, like an alluring red gem, flashing with red light, and there seemed to be something flowing inside.
"You can choose between leaving your life or leaving the bead." Zhou Wen said.
"No need to be so cruel?" Liuyun said with a wry smile.
"If it weren't for the teacher's sake, you would have died for leading the mountain god to me just now." Zhou Wen said.
In fact, Zhou Wen didn't kill Liuyun entirely because of this. Firstly, Liuyun's abilities and companion pets were quite strange, and he didn't know what other tricks he had. Zhou Wen was not completely sure that he could keep Liuyun alive without him destroying the red bead.
Zhou Wen’s interest in treasures is far greater than killing people.
Secondly, Liuyun told him information about the mountain god when he left, and it was most likely that he was Wang Mingyuan's student, so there was no need to fight him to the death.
"Well, since you are my junior brother, I will give you this treasure." Liuyun said and threw the red gem in his hand to Zhou Wen.
At the same time, he summoned the lamp god to clear the way and quickly escape in another direction. The direction he chose was not to leave the town, but to the lake.
Liuyun thought that Zhou Wen had set a trap to prevent him from escaping, and that he would have set one away from the town. He would have fled into the woods first, then over the mountain, and that would have allowed him to escape. After all, time was running out, and Zhou Wen probably didn't have enough time to set traps everywhere.
Zhou Wen reached out to grab the red gem, but found that it was just a bubble and shattered when he touched it.
"Junior brother, you are still a little naive if you want to fight with me." Liuyun secretly held the red gem in his hand and quickly rushed to the woods outside the town.
The lamp demon led the way ahead and no explosion occurred. Liuyun thought that as he expected, Zhou Wen did not set a trap in this direction.
The lamp demon was fine when it rushed into the grass, but when Liuyun rushed into the grass, the grass and trees suddenly exploded like bombs, and there was another series of screams and explosions.
When everything quieted down, Liuyun had already fallen to the ground covered in wounds. His handsome face had turned black and most of his hair was burnt.
"Run again." Zhou Wen came to Liuyun, stretched out his hand and sucked the red gem out from Liuyun's sleeve and fell into Zhou Wen's palm.
"What's the point of plotting conspiracies and setting traps to harm people? If you really have the ability, remove the traps around and fight me openly. Whoever wins will get the treasure." Liuyun's eyes turned and he said righteously.
Zhou Wen curled his lips in disdain. This wasn't the first time he'd been at a disadvantage. Walking down a dark path, wasn't he afraid of ghosts? Wang Mingyuan's students all looked handsome, but starting with Wang Mingyuan himself, none of them would challenge him to a fair duel. Unless Zhou Wen was crazy, that was.
"Why are you being hunted by the Supervisory Bureau? Is it also because of the teacher's matter?" Zhou Wen asked.
"That's not the case." Liuyun shook his head.
This answer was somewhat unexpected to Zhou Wen, so he continued to ask: "What's that for?"
"Because I stole some things from the six major families and the Supervisory Bureau headquarters." Liuyun puffed out his chest with some pride, but combined with his appearance as if he had just been struck by lightning, it really didn't look very impressive.
