Chapter 1041 Is this the footprint of a strong man’s growth?

Heilong was startled. He was about to say yes, but when he turned around, he saw Ye Qingxuan and Ye Linglong standing there watching the excitement.

"Wait a minute."

The black dragon quickly ran to Ye Qingxuan's side.

"What's going on?"

“I don’t know.”

Ye Linglong said lightly with his hands spread out.

"Then what are you doing standing here?"

"If you stand here you won't get beaten."

…

Black Dragon glanced back at the man who was beaten by Bilian, then turned back to Ye Linglong and the others and lowered his voice.

"He was originally in the Mahayana stage, but now he's pretending to be in the late stage of the fusion stage. Although he has hidden his cultivation, I don't know if he can win if we really fight, but I can buy you some time and let you run away, and then I can run away."

Ye Linglong tilted his head and asked in confusion.

"But if we don't run, we won't be beaten. Why do we have to be beaten?"

???

Heilong's face was full of question marks. Even though what she said made sense and he had no way to refute it, he still felt that something was not right.

So how about... just go with them?

So, the Black Dragon simply gave up thinking and stood obediently beside Ye Qingxuan.

"Although I am not a human, I am not in the same group as that rabbit demon. If you don't believe me, check if I have any demonic aura."

The old man stared at him for several seconds and confirmed that there was indeed no demonic aura about him. Although he was not a human, he was definitely not from the demon world.

So he snorted and asked again: "Then why are you smashing the wall?"

Black Dragon scratched his head. He didn't want to say that he had some brain problems due to the influence of the Sixth Abyss, so he asked back, "Isn't it a rule here that you can't smash the wall?"

…

These words left the old man silent.

“No rules.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Bilian appeared in Luoshi City. The old man's eyes fixed on her, and he raised his hand and slapped her in the face.

Bilian didn't expect that the person who came in to greet him was not Ye Linglong and the others but the terrorist who had been beaten by him. Although he didn't understand the situation, his survival instinct after living in the Nine Netherworlds and Eighteen Abysses for many years was aroused at this moment, and he simply bent his knees and knelt down.

This kneeling blew away the old man's great struggle.

…

Bilian moved forward and hugged his thighs.

"I was wrong! When I was in the Sixth Abyss, I was affected by the fragments and my brain was damaged. Although I didn't mean to do it, I really know that I was wrong. Senior, you are magnanimous, please forgive me this time!"

After saying that, Bilian hugged her thighs and slapped herself several times.

He cannot be allowed to give this slap. After all, with his level of cultivation, he would be very hurt if he really used all his strength.

So he, who always knew how to survive, chose to do it himself.

No one is better than him at giving a slap that's loud but not too painful.

Seeing that Bilian admitted her mistake so quickly and was so docile that she knelt down as soon as she was told to do so, the old man's eyes were filled with surprise.

Logically speaking, those who can come down from above to the Fourth Netherworld are all strong people, and strong people usually have determination. This is the first time he has seen a situation like the rabbit monster.

Maybe he was really old, but after hearing the loud slap from the rabbit demon, he really didn't want to pursue the matter anymore.

After all, judging by the intensity, any slap would be harder than the one he got, not to mention that he got slapped so many times. Plus, he had excusable reasons, so he should just let it go.

"That's enough. Who are you going to show off to? I'm not a monster like you. How can I feel sorry for a monster like you?"

Bilian's face lit up with joy. He had indeed made the right bet, because just now he saw Ye Zuzong and the others standing aside and nothing happened, so he guessed that this man looked fierce, but was actually tough on the outside but soft on the inside.

"Thank you for your generosity!"

Bilian stood up happily.

"Who forgave you?"

The angry rebuke frightened Bilian so much that she was about to kneel down again, but he added another sentence.

"Have the fragments been removed?"

Bilian quickly stood up straight and walked towards him with a flattering look on her face.

"Except that, we have an expert on our team, and we can get rid of it."

"An expert?"

The old man turned around and glanced at Ye Linglong and the others.

"But they said they were not in the same group with you."

Bilian was stunned. What's going on? Is it sold now?

Even though he was at fault first, even though he would be beaten if he admitted it, even though...

Forget it, it would be the same if it were him. Why should he just pass by if he can avoid getting beaten? It's not a life-and-death moment. How much is this loyalty worth?

It's obvious at first glance that this old man is not a vicious person, nor does he really want to kill anyone.

So Bilian quickly reconciled with everyone, with a sly smile on her face.

"A gang? Of course we are not a gang. We are all good people. How can we use the word accomplice? We are called companions."

…

The old man was silenced again. This was definitely the most flexible demon he had ever seen. So it was understandable that he could get to this point, but...

"You slapped yourself so many times just now, why are there no marks on your face?"

"Because I have thick skin and can take a beating. I can't compare to your delicate face."

…

The old man was silent again. He thought for a long time but couldn't think of any words to describe this rabbit mouth.

Forget it, business is more important.

"Alright, I won't bother with you about what happened before. Now that you are in Luoshi City, you must abide by the rules here. Follow me."

After saying this, the old man walked in front alone, and the four people behind him followed him obediently.

"What's going on? Is he the mayor of Luoshi City?" Bilian asked in a low voice.

"Awesome Bilian! She is the grandson of Luoye City, the VIP of Luohua City, the city lord of Luoshui City, and the city lord of Luoshi City is directly rewarded with a big competition. Yet she endured it. Is this the footprint of a strong person's growth? I admire you so much!" Ye Linglong praised.

…

The eloquent Bilian was embarrassed by Ye Zuzong.

"Stop laughing at me and get down to business, please, my Ye Zuzong!"

"Why are you asking me this? Haven't you been here for eight hundred years? You should know who he is better than I do."

"You may not believe it, but I have never met this person, so..."

Ye Linglong was stunned. So this person had been here longer than Bilian? More than eight hundred years?

"This doesn't make sense. His cultivation has reached the Mahayana stage. He shouldn't be stuck in the Fourth Netherworld and unable to move forward, right? Is this place more terrifying than the Third Netherworld?" asked the Black Dragon.

While they were still muttering, the old man in front of them had already led them to stop in front of a house.

Unlike the dilapidated Luoshui City, and unlike the prosperous Luohua City, Luoshi City is very clean.

Clean and simple, so simple that it seems a bit primitive.

There are no busy streets, no bustling crowds, but it is not deserted either.
