The Journey of Immortal Cultivation-Chapter 264 - 163 Where Are the Old Friends_2

She also knew that this reason was really too flimsy, but what could she do? "Lord Miluo, I’m not lying to you. I’m just an ordinary mortal, who would be willing to give me such a treasure?" she said urgently, seemingly frightened. This time, she didn’t forget to quicken her heartbeat and breathing, "One rainy night, the next day I went behind Chixiao Mountain to dig some bamboo shoots, and I found a big hole mysteriously appeared in the mountain. I went in and found these daggers stuck between the rocks!"

There is indeed a deep cave behind Chixiao Mountain, which indeed appeared only last year due to a rockslide, but it’s completely empty inside, nothing is there. If he wants to investigate, he might as well go ahead.

He suddenly stepped forward, reached out to grab her chin and lifted it up. Ning Xiaoxian was feeling panicked and dejected, and this time she didn’t dodge.

He put away his smile and said word by word: "The reason I’m still being so polite to you now is because a few days ago on the river beach, you defended my honor, and I somewhat owe you a favor. If you don’t tell the truth now, don’t blame me for being harsh!" At such close distance, she could see his dark red eyes, like thick blood, emitting specks of red light, "I ask you again: is there nothing else in there, only this pair of daggers?"

She nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Lord Miluo didn’t speak, suddenly moved like the wind, trying to snatch the daggers. However, since the first day Ning Xiaoxian received whistle training, she was taught that a weapon must never leave one’s grasp, so she always held it very tight. When she saw him reaching to snatch it, she instinctively pulled back, and Lord Miluo only grabbed the dagger blade.

Tusk is extremely sharp, and immediately his hand was dripping with fresh blood, and if he hadn’t relaxed in time, he might have even sliced off all five fingers.

Lord Miluo suddenly drifted back seven meters, his face showing extreme shock. But it was not because Tusk wounded him, rather, when he touched the dagger, an immense oppressive force spread along the dagger blade into his body.

He has always been an extremely proud person, and aside from his own old man, he had never truly submitted to anyone else in the world. However, the sudden imposing presence that overwhelmed him was as deep and terrible as a prison, dredging up fear. It felt as if a pair of pale golden giant eyes were focused on him from countless worlds, the gaze devoid of happiness or anger, cold and constant, suddenly making him feel as small as dust, lowly as an ant. Under the gaze of these giant eyes, all his five senses were stripped away; unable to feel joy, sorrow, anger, or grief, he couldn’t even feel these absences, as if he was locked in an eternal time cage, with his mind frozen and preserved.

Fortunately, this feeling lasted only for an instant. As soon as his hand left the edge of Tusk, this sensation quickly receded like the tide.

Even so, it was enough. If before he had only a third of a guess—after all, he had only felt the aura from the thing in old man’s hand once—but now it was completely confirmed beyond doubt!

He no longer concealed his intentions, and shouted harshly: "Shaking Heaven God, where exactly is he?"

This moment, she was shocked to her core. Lord Miluo actually knew of Changtian’s existence, he was firmly convinced that the Divine Beast Ba Snake, even after thirty thousand years, was still alive!

Changtian once said that his True Body was hidden very well, almost no one in this world could find it. Other than that, everything he left in this world nearly vanished over the long span of thirty thousand years, thus many histories of the Nan Zhanbu Continent only recorded Ba Snake as a legend. However, what exactly made the fox demon in front of her so sure?

The most likely possibility was that she had a connection with the original master of the God Demon Prison!

As this thought just emerged, like a cold breeze, it dispelled the feeling of decay that was overshadowing her spirit platform. Now, Changtian’s safety was in her hands, she would fight with her life to protect him!

"What Shaking Heaven God? I don’t know him," she said calmly, suppressing her emotions.

Lord Miluo squinted his eyes. He was also angry: "This pair of daggers must have been made from some part of the Divine Beast Ba Snake, bone or tooth? Don’t you dare deceive me, I’ve felt his aura, there’s absolutely no mistake!"

His expression became darker, veins popping on his forehead, the image of the beautiful man completely gone.

She adamantly held her ground: "I really only found these daggers, I don’t know their origin. As for this Shaking Heaven God, why would he give these to me?"

"You really don’t know?" Lord Miluo scoffed, "Magic Artifacts also have a lifespan. Even if made from the bones or teeth of a Divine Beast, if the beast itself has perished, the artifact can last at most for a few thousand years. The Divine Power still so intact on your weapon only indicates that Ba Snake was still alive at least within the last thousand years!"

Damn it, she really didn’t know! Changtian, that tight-lipped man, never bothered to enlighten her, and now look, she was at a disadvantage.

"You also said, this God only remained alive within the last thousand years, whether he’s dead or alive now is still unknown!" She keenly seized the loophole in his words, beginning to make up plausible denials, "I’ve lived in this world for less than eighteen years, how could I possibly know where this immortal or demon is?"

This woman, from any angle, appeared too suspicious; she definitely knew more than a little.

"Hmph. The day you took Wen Liangyu and escaped by the Waterway, I was puzzled to no end," he crossed his arms over his chest. From this detail, Ning Xiaoxian could tell his emotions were starting to settle down, "Not until today, when I encountered these daggers, did I realize you used them to scare away that monster underwater, right?"
