Supreme Emperor of Swords - Chapter 1271

Chapter 76 Temptation

From the introduction of Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai, Ding Hao learned about the general situation of these reclusive elders. Their cultivation might not be high, but they knew a lot of unknown things. In addition, their seniority was higher than others, so their status in the Evil Yang Tribe was quite high.

Of course, because they lived in seclusion, most of the members of the Evil Yang Tribe didn’t know of their existence.

When Ding Hao heard the news, he agreed without much hesitation.

He also wanted to see if these reclusive elders could give him a surprise and if he could get some useful information from them.

Led by Xing Mo, Ding Hao visited seven or eight elders who had been in seclusion for many years and inquired about the things in the scroll from them.

However, the results were not satisfactory. It took some time for Ding Hao to get some clues from them, but most of them were scattered and of little value to him.

Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai were also a little embarrassed when they saw this. They had thought that they could help Ding Hao and please him, but they did not expect such a result.

Ding Hao did not regret it too much. He was indeed looking forward to getting the answer he wanted just now, but he did not think it would be so easy to get the information he wanted.

Since Ding Hao had got the scroll and had no more information, he began to carry out his next plan.

In the next plan, he needed the cooperation of Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai.

Therefore, as soon as he returned to the main hall, he told Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai his plan.

After listening to Ding Hao’s plan, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai were shocked and hesitant. They didn’t know if they should agree.

“Milord, you want to deal with Lord Ding. Do you know him?” Xing Mo asked the question in his heart before giving his answer.

The one who responded to him was not Ding Hao but Evil Moon, who was speechless but didn’t want to say too much. “My Human Pet’s surname is Ding. Do we know him? What do you think?”

“His surname is Ding!”

At this moment, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai knew that the man in front of them had the same surname as Lord Ding.

“Could it be that they are brothers?

“Or do they have some other relationship…”

Despite their doubts, seeing that Evil Moon and Ding Hao didn’t want to say more, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai didn’t dare to ask more. But in any case, they knew that Ding Hao knew Lord Ding, so they relaxed a lot.

Evil Moon glared at them first and then tempted them with a smile. “Don’t be long-winded. Ding Hao asked you to lure that man out because he wanted to give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. Don’t pretend to be in a dilemma. Although Lord Ding has conquered you, I don’t think you want to be inferior to him. If you succeed this time, you will no longer need to yield to him, and you will be second to no one once more.”

However, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai did not think so. Instead, they felt very bitter in their hearts.

“After Lord Ding is dealt with, we indeed will no longer need to yield to him, but you two will still be around. How can we be second to no one? And we are still sealed by your Human Pet!” Of course, these words were only the complaints of Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai inwardly, and they did not dare to say them anyway.

“Well, okay…” After thinking about it again and again, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai felt that they could not disobey Ding Hao’s orders, so they could only do what Ding Hao asked them to do obediently. In fact, it was not difficult for them to do what they were asked. They just needed to lure Lord Ding to Gold Yang City.

“Milord, this is what Lord Ding gave us before he left. He asked us to use this to call him after we finish our plan…” As Xing Mo spoke, he took out a jade pendant that seemed to have black mist flowing around it and handed it to Ding Hao.

Ding Hao took it and looked at it. Then, he heard Xing Mo continue, “He said that as long as we crush this jade pendant after the plan is done, he can sense it and rush over as soon as possible no matter where he is.”

Ding Hao nodded. This black jade pendant did have the same dark power as the Dark Lotuses. He could tell that this jade pendant was definitely left behind by that Lord Ding.

With this jade pendant, the conditions to lure Lord Ding into the game would be met. Now, Ding Hao needed to make some other preparations.

Ding Hao put away the dark jade pendant and waved to Evil Moon. When it came to him, he whispered a few words in its ear and then took out some strange things before handing them to it.

Evil Moon put the things that Ding Hao gave it into the storage bag on its belly. Then, it squinted at Ding Hao and asked incredulously, “Just trust me with whatever task you give me. I will definitely be able to complete it at once. However, do you mean what you said just now? After the task is done, you’ll give me delicious food. You’re not deceiving me, are you?”

Ding Hao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “When have I ever deceived you? Just go. If you’re too slow, I’ll do it myself, and you won’t have the reward I promised you. Don’t regret it then!”

“Until now, indeed, you haven’t deceived me. You do have nice credibility. Well, I’ve decided to believe you. Remember, you can’t go back on your word since you’ve promised to give me that thing!” After that, a pair of white wings spread on Evil Moon’s back. After flapping the wings a few times, it turned into a white shadow and flew out quickly, disappearing in an instant.

After Evil Moon left, the main hall began to quiet down.

…

The thing that Ding Hao had instructed Evil Moon to do seemed to be quite troublesome. Evil Moon did not come back until the next day.

When it returned, it naturally asked Ding Hao for the reward he had promised before.

“I don’t know if you have finished it. How can I know if you went to took a rest…” Although Ding Hao said so, he still took something out of his pocket and threw it to Evil Moon.

Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai were beside him. Before they could see the thing clearly, it was swallowed by Evil Moon with shining eyes. Then, Evil Moon showed an intoxicated expression, closed its eyes, and seemed to be enjoying it very much.

After a while, Evil Moon opened its eyes and answered Ding Hao, “Meow. You can question the others, but you’re not supposed to question me, and you’re not supposed to doubt whether I’ve got it done. If you ask this question, you’re doubting my ability. I feel insulted. Hey, you have to take out that thing again to compensate me and make me feel better…”

While speaking, it covered its chest as if it were in great pain, but it inadvertently licked its pink tongue, which ratted it out. It was obviously not satisfied and wanted to trap Ding Hao.

Ding Hao was speechless.

Ding Hao naturally ignored it. He turned his head and looked at the sky outside. At the same time, he took out the dark jade pendant that Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai had given him before, rubbed the gully in it, and murmured, “Now all is ready except what is crucial.”

Then, he gently clenched his right hand, and with a crisp sound, strands of dark mist spread out and dissipated in the void. When his right hand unfolded, the dark jade pendant had already disappeared.

…

…

At the same time, in an unknown distant area, there was a boundless ocean.

The water in a corner of the ocean was different from other seawater. It was black, just like ink water.

The sea was filled with the corpses of marine creatures. Apart from the saltiness of the sea, there was also a strong pungent smell of blood in the air.

Some of these sea creatures’ corpses were as big as mountains, and their auras were as majestic as the sea. They were actually terrifying demons.

These demons were terrifying figures who would make the sea tremble and set off huge waves when they made a small move. But at this moment, they had become ice-cold corpses, lying quietly on the sea and slowly decaying.

On one of the island-like demon corpses, a dark figure sat cross-legged with his eyes tightly shut.

Although this figure was not majestic, it was as unshakable as a mountain. No matter how strong the wind and rain were, they could not get close to him.

Suddenly, the dark figure’s expression changed slightly, and his tightly closed eyes slowly opened.

When he opened his eyes, there seemed to be a shocking ray of light of darkness that shot out, and it seemed as if it was capable of shattering space. It was extremely terrifying.

When he really opened his eyes, unexpectedly, his eyes were actually extraordinarily dim, like that of an old man who had seen through everything in the world, and it caused others to have the illusion that he was unable to conceal himself. At the same time, it seemed as if all the darkness in the world came from within his eyes. So long as people glanced at him, they would feel as if they had fallen into Asura Hell and were unable to get out from it.

“It’s broken. It’s time for me to come on the stage. Hahahaha…” Devilish light burst out from the man’s eyes. At this moment, he suddenly changed from a calm man to a horrible Devil. Then, he showed an evil smile and laughed loudly. His laughter was like thunder and turn into a devilish voice that resounded through the world.

The originally calm surface of the sea was instantly stirred up. Circles of ripples spread, which grew larger and larger and became more and more urgent. After that, they formed waves that swept in all directions. Some of the corpses that were far away were rapidly swept away.

Some of the sea demonic beasts tens of millions of meters away from the sea area were actually shocked by this laughter to the point their eyes turned white, and then foam came out of their mouths before they fainted.

The laughter continued to fill the sky. However, the dark figure had disappeared without anyone noticing, leaving behind only this chaotic world.

…

…

In Gold Yang City.

Since Ding Hao crushed the jade pendant and knew that he was going to carry out his plan, although Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai did not show anything on their faces, they were still a little worried.

They didn’t know if Ding Hao could defeat Lord Ding. If not, would his plan irritate Lord Ding and implicate the entire Evil Yang Tribe?

Time passed little by little. For the first time, Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai, who had been staying in front of the Gold Yang Hall, felt that time was passing so slowly. The worries in their hearts became heavier and heavier, but they could only wait like this.

Under the circumstances, they could only trust Ding Hao and believe that he could deal with Lord Ding.

They let their imagination run wild. A few hours later, when there was no sound, another bolt of black lightning suddenly struck from the distance until it reached the sky above the Gold Yang Hall.

At the same time that the black lightning dissipated, the figure that made Xing Mo and Pei Qi’ai terrified finally appeared.
