Chapter 270 Seemingly True but False



The masked emperor instantly appeared in front of Li Xiu. Li Xiu stepped on the accelerator and accelerated madly, sprinting towards the city gate.

Such a small white-shelled turtle is already at the light-based level, and this big turtle, which is as big as a house, no one knows what level it is.

The masked emperor accelerated madly, and the magic light behind him hit the beach, blasting a huge hole in the beach. The surging magic light poured out from the hole and rushed towards the masked emperor like a flood.

The Masked Emperor's speed increased to the extreme, but it was still not as fast as the flood-like magic light. Fortunately, Li Xiu was not far from the city gate and was about to rush to the front of the city gate.

The magic light behind him was about to touch the rear of the motorcycle. Li Xiu jumped off the motorcycle and took back the masked emperor at the same time.

The moment he landed, Li Xiu reached out to grab the city gate, trying to close it to block the terrifying magic light.

But Li Xiu's hand was held down by a white and tender little hand. The little girl held his hand, and at the same time, with the other hand, she held the wooden revolver and pulled the trigger towards the monstrous magic light.

Bang!

A light bullet actually flew out from the muzzle of the wooden revolver, and the small bullet flew into the flood-like magic light.

Li Xiu suddenly saw an incredible scene. After the bullet rushed into the magic light, the flood-like magic light actually began to rotate along with the magic light, turning into a tornado and rolling back.

Bang!

The bullet hit the top of the huge white turtle that was riding the wind and waves, and made a bloody hole in the turtle's head.

The magic light that came with the bullet wrapped around the white turtle's body and the waves, sweeping it up into the sky.

Boom!

When the corpse of the white turtle and the sea water fell down, a big hole was created on the beach, and the sea water fell like a torrential rain.

"Uncle, what's the point of closing the door? This broken city gate can't withstand the attack of the magic light. Even if you hide behind the city gate, you will be killed." The little girl said with blinking eyes.

"Is that so?" Li Xiu was a little depressed. He always felt that this place might have some relationship with the Black Death City, so he regarded this place as the Black Death City.

If it was the Black Death City, the city gate should be able to withstand the impact of the magic light. After hearing what the little girl said, he realized that he had made a mistake.

This is not the Black Death City, and the things here cannot be equated with the Black Death City.

The little girl walked up to the corpse of the giant white turtle, jumped into the shell, and picked out a magic core and a gem from the decomposed corpse.

"Is that a super spiritual gem?" Li Xiu saw the white gem in the little girl's hand. There was a faint constellation-like pattern flowing inside it. The pattern formed by those shining lines looked like a turtle.

Li Xiu counted them and found that there were twelve light veins on it. This thing was a light-based demon spirit with twelve light veins.

"This is not a super-spiritual gem, it's a light-based gem." The little girl corrected, "Uncle, you can't even deal with a light-based demon spirit, so you'd better stop running around."

After the little girl put away the magic core and light-based gem, she pulled the huge turtle shell into the city with her little hands.

"Let me help you." Li Xiu helped push the little girl into the city from behind.

This little girl was able to kill a light-based demon spirit with twelve light veins with just one shot. Her power was truly terrifying.

Judging from her age, she is probably only about 6 or 7 years old, but she already possesses such strength. The people of Demon Country are indeed much stronger than humans on Earth.

"Wait, could it be that all the demons in this city have such terrifying powers as the little girl?" Li Xiu looked at the demons of all kinds in the city and had such a terrible thought in his mind.

Perhaps those old men sweeping the floor, the blacksmith, and the lady selling vegetables may all be more powerful than the little girl.

Looking at the bustling streets, Li Xiu felt extremely strange in his heart. Everyone seemed to him to be a hidden monk.

"It shouldn't be possible... Are the people of Demon Country really that strong? I remember that the Demon Country's Emperor was able to rise only after he created the "Jade Emperor Sutra", which shows that the people of Demon Country are not born that strong, at least they can't be born light-based... Then what about this little girl... At her age... She shot and killed a twelve-pulse light-based demon spirit with one shot... To say that she was not born light-based... that doesn't make sense..." Li Xiu was full of doubts.

"Xiao Bu'er, did you kill another big turtle today?"

"With such a big turtle shell, I can go to Father Wu and exchange it for gem coins..."

"Xiao Bu'er, you're lucky to have received such a great deal. Can you treat us to a drink tonight?"

Only then did Li Xiu know that the little girl's name was Xiao Bu'er. The name was a bit strange, but she seemed to be very popular. When she walked on the street, neighbors on both sides of the street would see her dragging the big turtle shell and would take the initiative to say hello.

"Stop making so much noise. I get it. I'll treat you guys to drinks tonight, you drunkards." Xiao Bu'er said loudly.

After Xiao Bu'er said this, the neighbors in the city let her go.

Li Xiu pushed the turtle shell from behind and looked at the neighbors with smiling faces. It felt similar to when he was in the orphanage.

Most of the residents in the orphanage in Gucheng are orphans whose parents were killed by evil spirits. Li Xiu is one of the younger ones, and many staff members in the orphanage take good care of him.

The way these neighbors looked at Xiao Bu'er was very similar to the way the orphanage staff looked at him back then.

It's not just love, it's more of pity.

Xiao Buer dragged the turtle shell to a shop with a sign that read "Wu Jia Pu" and threw the turtle shell directly onto the open space in front of the shop.

"Old Man Wu, see how many gem coins this can be exchanged for." Xiao Buer shouted towards the shop.

After a while, a bearded old man came out, took a look at the tortoise shell on the ground, and said with a smile: "Xiao Bu'er, today's harvest is not bad. The light-based white tortoise shell with twelve light veins is a good thing. I will give you a gem coin."

"Old Wu, you want to cheat me again, at least two." Xiao Buer stretched out two fingers very firmly.

"Two gem coins... okay..." Old Man Wu took out two gem coins with some pain and threw them to Xiao Bu'er.

Xiaobuer caught the gem coin and put it away carefully.

"Old Wu, let's go to the square in the evening and I'll treat you to a drink." Xiao Buer said and turned to leave.

Li Xiu followed Xiao Bu'er and walked for a while until Xiao Bu'er arrived at the square. He threw a few small white-shelled turtle shells on the wine stand at the edge of the square and shouted to the female boss, "Madam, I'll treat you to a drink tonight. Please prepare enough wine."

"Don't worry, Xiaobu'er, there will be enough wine." The charming proprietress threw a wink to Li Xiu who was following behind Xiaobu'er.

Li Xiu nodded slightly to the proprietress, then left with Xiao Buer.

"Uncle, why are you following me?" Xiao Bu'er saw that Li Xiu was following her, so she turned around and looked at Li Xiu, saying somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"I'm unfamiliar with this place and have nowhere to go. Can you take me in for a night?" Li Xiu said.

"There are chairs in the square, go and sleep there by yourself. There is no place for outsiders to sleep in my house." Xiaobuer said and turned away: "Don't follow me anymore. Come to the square at night, drink as much as you want, then take a nap, and leave as soon as you wake up. This is not a place for people like you to come."

"Okay." Seeing Xiaobuer walking away, Li Xiu did not chase her anymore and turned to walk in another direction.

Li Xiu wanted to take another look at whether this place had any connection with the Black Death City. He always felt that this place was a bit similar to the Black Death City.

Li Xiu had gone out of the city gates in three directions of the Black Death City. There was indeed a sea on the other side of the Black Sea, but it was not the Black Sea, and the sea water had no corrosive ability. It was just ordinary sea water.

Outside the other gate of the Black Death City is a desert, and in another direction is a canyon.

Li Xiu first went to the city gate on the other side of the canyon. After walking out of the city gate, Li Xiu's expression became even weirder.

This is indeed a canyon, but it looks much smaller than the canyon outside the Black Death City. Moreover, the canyon is full of exotic flowers and plants, and is not as desolate as the canyon in the Black Death City.

Of course, there were no mechanical skeletons in this canyon. Li Xiu walked into the canyon and soon saw the building that looked like a dam.

The door of the building was open. Li Xiu walked into the building and found that the style of the building was exactly the same as the one outside the Black Death City, but there were no evil spirits inside, nor were there any strange statues enshrined.

The doors inside are all open, and there are some tablets in each palace. They are normal tablets, which are used to commemorate deceased relatives.

When Li Xiu walked to a gate, he saw a man worshiping.

The man was in his twenties, wearing a knight-like armor and looking quite handsome. After he finished his worship, he saw Li Xiu standing outside and smiled at him.

"My friend, this is the resting place of our ancestors in the City of Love. If your relatives are not here, it is best not to disturb them." The man said to Li Xiu.

"Sorry, I thought this was a church or something, so I came in to take a look. Sorry to bother you." Li Xiu felt weird. How could someone build a place like this to place ancestral tablets?

The man smiled and said, "I can't blame you. This was indeed a church before, and a certain god was enshrined in it. But later, the people who believed in that god were gone, so it was changed to this."

"So that's how it is." Li Xiu felt more and more strange.

Everything here is similar to the Black Death City, but also very different. This made Li Xiu unable to figure out for a moment what the relationship between this city and the Black Death City was.

In the past, the God of Death Tablet could only drag him into the Black Death City, but this time, while he was drunk, he was dragged to such a place, which was really confusing.

"What's your friend's name?" the man asked cheerfully.

"Li Xiu." Li Xiu replied.

The man smiled and said, "Everyone in the city calls me Black Knight, you can call me Black Knight too. I haven't seen friends from outside for a long time. If you don't mind, can you come to my house and tell me about what's happening outside?"

"Outside?" Li Xiu keenly felt that the word was used a little strangely.

"Aren't you from outside?" Black Knight asked in confusion.

"I came from outside, but I don't know where the outside you are talking about is." Li Xiu said with a smile.

Black Knight smiled and said, "Outside is of course the place outside the City of Love."

"Haven't you ever left the City of Love?" Li Xiu became even more confused.

"I left when I was young, but later I lost the way out and never left the City of Love again." Black Knight continued, "Come to my house first, and we can drink and chat."

"Xiao Bu'er will treat me to a drink tonight. Why don't we talk later? I just arrived in the City of Love and want to go around for a walk." Li Xiu felt a little confused.

What Black Knight said seemed somewhat contradictory. If the road out of the City of Love was blocked, then wouldn’t the people in the city find it strange that he, an outsider, came to the City of Love?

Moreover, Black Knight said that he went out when he was young, but judging from his age, he was only in his twenties. How young could he be? It couldn't be when he was a teenager, right?

Before Li Xiu could ask the question in his mind, Heiqi said, "Xiao Bu'er is inviting us to drink, so we must go. How about this, where do you want to go? I'll be your tour guide, and when we come back, we'll go to Xiao Bu'er's place for a drink together."

"How can I feel embarrassed about that?" Li Xiu said.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You're free anyway. Where do you want to go?" Heiqi was very enthusiastic.

"I want to go outside the city and take a look." Li Xiu said.

"What's there to see outside the city? There's no road behind us. On the other side is the Aegean Sea. It's a bit dangerous over there and it's not easy to go out." After thinking for a while, Black Knight said, "You can go for a walk on the other two sides. The scenery is pretty good."

The two returned to the city together and walked towards another gate of the Land of Love. Li Xiu remembered that there should be a big desert over here in the Black Death City.

But after walking out of the city gate, I didn’t see a desert, but an endless stretch of white mountains.

"This is the White Jade Mountain Range connected to the Sea of ​​Love. There are many gemstone veins in the mountains. Many residents in the City of Love make a living by mining..." Black Knight pointed to the endless white mountains outside and said, "If you have time, I can take you to the mine. Maybe you can pick up some gemstones as a souvenir."

"Let's go to the mine another day. I want to take a look at the other side." Li Xiu saw that this place was different from the desert in the Black Death City, so he wanted to go to the other side to take a look.

And he didn't know when the God of Death Tablet would take him back, and he wanted to understand this strange city of love as much as possible.

On the way, Li Xiu asked Hei Qi: "Brother, why is the road between the City of Love and the outside world cut off?"

Black Knight laughed and said, "There used to be a pier over the Aegean Sea. If you wanted to go out, you had to take a big ship. Later, for some reason, the ships that traveled to the Aegean Sea stopped coming, and no one could go out."

"Can't we get out through land?" Li Xiu asked.

"It's possible to go out, but it's too dangerous. There are evil spirits everywhere outside, and generally no one would go out by land." said the Black Knight.

After a while, the two men arrived at the last city gate.

The corresponding place here is the city gate in the Black Death City that Li Xiu has never been out of, and Li Xiu does not know what is outside the city gate of the Black Death City.

The city gate here is open. Looking out from here, there is a meadow full of colorful flowers, and outside the meadow is an endless forest.

"This forest is called the Love Seed Forest, because of the love mushrooms that grow in it. If you have a girl you love, you can go to the forest and pick a love mushroom for her. This is our way of expressing love in the City of Love... Every time the love mushrooms grow, the annual Fire of Love Party is held here... It's a pity that you came at the wrong time, the Fire of Love Party just passed not long ago... Otherwise, with your looks, maybe a girl would give you a love mushroom..." Black Knight told various stories about the Love Seed Forest.

The more Li Xiu looked, the more he felt that this place was indeed different from the Black Death City. After the Black Knight finished speaking, he asked Li Xiu: "What is the situation outside now? Has the Emperor of Heaven conquered the Eternal Life Island?"

"The Demonic Kingdom has been destroyed for a long time, and the Emperor of Heaven has disappeared." Li Xiu answered truthfully.

It seems that this place has indeed lost contact with the outside world, and the Black Knights don’t even know that the Demon Kingdom has been destroyed.

"What? The Demon Kingdom is destroyed? Who can defeat the Emperor of Heaven and destroy the Demon Kingdom?" Black Knight looked incredulous.

"I don't know either." Li Xiu shook his head and said, "I only know that Tiancheng is now in ruins."

"Could it be that Changsheng Island defeated the Emperor of Heaven... This is impossible... With the Sea of ​​Heaven as a constraint... How could Changsheng Island defeat the Emperor of Heaven..." Black Knight became more and more confused. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he looked at Li Xiu and asked, "When was the Demon Kingdom destroyed?"

When Li Zheng was about to answer, he suddenly saw a girl in a long skirt walking out of the city.

"Li Xiu, let me introduce you. This is my fiancée, Kaduoer. She is the most beautiful girl in this city..." Heiqi proudly took the girl and introduced her to Li Xiu.

Li Xiu saw that Kaduoer was indeed beautiful and was in no way inferior to Li Qingyi.

"Xiao Bu'er wants to treat everyone to a drink. The proprietress is busy over there. Let's go and help." After greeting Li Xiu, Ka Duo'er said to the Black Knight beside her.

"Okay." Black Knight said to Li Xiu with a smile, "Let's go together. Tell me more about what's happening outside."

When the three of them returned to the city, they saw that there were quite a few tables and chairs placed in the square, and on each table were some fruits that Li Xiu had never seen before.

The beautiful and sexy proprietress was carrying bottles of wine and placing them on the table.

"Madam, we are here to help you." Black Knight walked straight into the tavern and carried out a box of wine.

Li Xiu followed him into the tavern and discovered that the location of the tavern was actually the location of the Hades House in the Black Death City. Some doubts arose in his heart.

Before, Li Xiu didn’t think much of the wine stall that was placed outside, but he didn’t expect that there was a tavern inside, and it was the location of the Hades House.

Li Xiu looked at the layout of the tavern, which was surprisingly similar to the underworld house, except that there were no bookshelves or books, only wine bottles placed everywhere.

"Move this box of wine out as well." The proprietress came over, picked up a box of wine and handed it to Li Xiu, looking at him with seductive eyes that seemed to seduce him.
