In fact, Su Yang did not tell the whole truth.
The golden pagoda he obtained, he existed in that dark space, why did he stay there for a full thousand years?
According to Xiao Jiang, all the treasures in the Purple Gold Pagoda were left behind by its previous owner, who was a 'god'! Even gods can perish, and all the treasures were imprisoned in the Purple Gold Pagoda. So how did this pagoda come about?
In particular, why was he only brought back to life when he signed in and received the Purple Gold Pagoda? And what was the meaning of the dreams he had during those thousand years, which were like experiencing a hundred lifetimes?
It seems as if, in some mysterious way, all of this is just a scheme orchestrated by someone.
They control what he now lives in: Ziyun City, the entire Jiang Kingdom, and even the entire continent!
Su Yang moved the chess pieces on the board and said, "I think the situation I'm in now is like that we are all pieces on the chessboard, but the way to really break the deadlock is still unknown."
After saying that, the two sat there quietly for a long while.
Li Zhong crossed his arms and waited a moment before saying, "The fact that you can tell me all this means you acknowledge me. But perhaps you've asked the wrong person. What I seek is only supreme power; I have no interest in exploring the mysteries of this world."
Su Yang smiled faintly: "Perhaps you can't escape?"
Li Zhong tilted his head slightly: "Oh? Why?"
A sharp glint flashed in Su Yang's eyes: "Because I think that those who are strong enough will inevitably get involved in this situation."
Li Zhong remained silent, deep in thought.
Will all the powerful ones get involved?
Doesn't that mean there's an even more powerful being?
Hmm, that's interesting.
Just as Su Yang was staring at the chessboard, seemingly lost in thought, Su Huang nervously pushed open Su Yang's door.
Hearing the commotion, Su Yang composed himself and asked the newcomer, "What is it?"
Su Huang cleared his throat and chuckled, "Ancestor, a wandering monk wishes to see you."
Su Yang said calmly, "Let him in."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a man dressed in slightly worn clothes walked in through the door. He was covered in dust, had a bronze complexion, and a face full of wrinkles. He wore a straw hat and had his hair shaved clean. It was indeed difficult to tell his age from his appearance.
The most crucial thing is the monk's whereabouts. With his profound understanding of the world, he didn't even notice the monk's presence at first!
This wandering monk is also very strong!
"Hmph, so it was you."
At this moment, Li Chong glanced at the traveling monk, his face full of disdain.
The monk was not surprised, and just smiled faintly: "I really didn't expect that the dignified Demon Lord would be so calm and peaceful in such an ordinary residence. I'm afraid no one has ever seen such a scene before."
Demon Lord?!
Su Huang, who was guarding the door, panicked immediately.
Demons revere power above all else, and the only one who can lead the entire demon race is the most powerful being among them! Such a being is known as the Demon Lord in the demon realm!
He never imagined that the rumored killer who kills without shedding blood, the nightmare of every child, would one day come to their Su family. Moreover, such a being did not kill them at first, and even became brothers with their ancestor.
Su Huang's mind went completely blank; he felt like he had gone mad!
Su Yang frowned slightly.
It's clear that this wandering monk and Li Zhong know each other; you can sense it from their conversation just now, and it's likely that the two have fought before.
Su Yang remained seated, calmly asking, "Are you a Realm Daoist?"
The wandering monk laughed: "Haha! I didn't expect this young friend to be so knowledgeable. But unfortunately, I am not a Realm Daoist. But if I had to say, I would be considered the successor to the next Realm Daoist."
Li Zhong snorted lightly: "He's just a guy who only knows how to run away and use petty tricks. He can't be considered a real strongman."
The wandering monk smiled innocently as before: "Your Majesty the Demon Lord is too kind. The techniques I cultivate are primarily movement-based; in a direct confrontation, I am no match for you. However, since Your Majesty is here chatting so calmly, does that mean you acknowledge this young friend's strength?"
The two chatted here, while Su Huang, who was guarding the door, looked completely bewildered.
Demon Lord, Realm Daoist?
What are these terms?
At that moment, he seemed not to exist in this world, and everything he said was like a dream.
Seeing Su Huang standing at the door looking somewhat bewildered, Su Yang waved his hand and said, "You go back first, I'll handle things here."
Su Huang cupped his hands in greeting, then turned and left.
The pressure he felt in that courtyard just now was immense! He was almost certain that it was beyond anything he could comprehend!
So, just how strong are they?
"Could the ancestor be a god...?" Su Huang felt a chill run down his spine.
He dared not think too much about such things; he might lose his life if he wasn't careful!
After Su Huang left, the monk casually sat on the stone chair next to the two of them, watching Su Yang fiddling with the chess pieces, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"Huh? This thing is interesting." The traveling monk looked at the chess pieces curiously.
Li Zhong snorted coldly and turned his head away, clearly showing that he had no good feelings towards the wandering monk.
Su Yang shook his head with a wry smile and asked, "I heard you came to see me? What brings you here?"
At this moment, the traveling monk seemed to remember something and said with a smile, "Right, right, look at my memory, I forget my business as soon as I see an old friend. The main reason I came here was to see who fought with the Demon Lord. I followed the trail and found this place, but I never expected that the Demon Lord would actually acknowledge you. In that case, it has saved me a lot of trouble."
Su Yang glanced at Li Zhong and said calmly, "Does Li Zhong rarely acknowledge others?"
The monk, sitting upright, said, "As far as I know, this Demon Lord has only acknowledged you."
Su Yang's lips twitched.
Goodness, that means if Li Zhong hadn't acknowledged him back then, he wouldn't have been able to calmly sit down and play these games with him. What he would have faced afterward would most likely have been countless visits to spar with him.
That'll kill him sooner or later!
At this moment, the monk suddenly looked at Li Zhong and said, "By the way! There is another matter I came here to tell the Demon Lord."
Li Zhong frowned: "Spit it out."
The monk continued with a smile, "Because the battle between the Demon Lord and this young friend caused quite a stir, the people from the Cangzhou Exorcising Sect have already rushed to the edge of the Demon Realm..."
"snort!"
Before the monk could finish speaking, Li Chong snorted coldly, and the pressure brought by the demonic energy instantly enveloped the entire area under the eaves, making the whole space extremely silent!
"You ants, how dare you presume to trespass upon my Demon Realm! You're courting death!"
After saying that, Li Zhong waved his hand, and a pair of black wings immediately appeared behind him. In the blink of an eye, he soared into the sky and disappeared from sight.
Su Yang frowned, then withdrew his gaze and focused on the wandering monk.
What exactly is your purpose?
