Chapter 1899 Are You the High Priest?
To be honest, Ling Tian couldn't bear to look at Zhou Xiaoxiao's current appearance.
This doesn't even look like a villain anymore - this is a pure villain!
However, Zhou Xiaoxiao was not self-conscious at all. She showed a smile that she thought was cruel but was actually cute.
"Wu Chaoyang, do you want to gamble?"
"You have to think it over carefully."
Zhou Xiaoxiao's acting is very poor and her performance is very exaggerated.
But I have to admit, it works.
An old man with white hair and beard walked out from the mound behind Wu Chaoyang, leaning on a cane.
"Senior, please wait. I am here to apologize to you."
The old man bowed deeply with an extremely respectful attitude.
Zhou Xiaoxiao loosened her grip slightly.
Wu Chaoyang got a chance to catch his breath and gasped.
But he didn't say anything else.
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Ling Tian.
Ling Tian narrowed his eyes and said.
"If I'm not mistaken, you are the high priest?"
"Yes."
The old man admitted it directly.
He glanced at Wu Chaoyang who was pressed to the ground by Zhou Xiaoxiao, and sighed.
"It was my idea to deceive the two seniors."
"Please let Chaoyang go, senior."
Ling Tian was unmoved and just asked.
"Is her last name really Wu?"
The high priest nodded.
Ling Tian asked again.
"Is Wu Heng really her great-uncle?"
"Yes."
The high priest said slowly.
"At the beginning, my ancestors and my great uncle came here together and helped us gain a foothold here."
"I don't know what happened later, but my great uncle passed away."
"After this, we lost track of our great-uncle."
"The ancestors waited for 180 years, but they couldn't wait for the return of the great uncle."
"Senior, have you met my great uncle?"
Unlike Wu Chaoyang, the high priest is obviously more cunning.
He started to build relationships right away.
Little did he know that Ling Tian didn't buy it at all.
"Oh……"
"So that monster is actually fake?"
The high priest was about to open his mouth subconsciously, but he reacted the moment before he opened his mouth.
said hurriedly.
"Of course not!"
Although he reacted quickly.
But Ling Tian still noticed it.
Ling Tian glanced at Wu Chaoyang who was captured by Zhou Xiaoxiao, and said coldly.
"Kill her."
This trip was originally led by Ling Tian.
Zhou Xiaoxiao just followed Li Jiuer's instructions to protect Ling Tian.
Ling Tian asked her to do it.
She started to act.
Killing is something that is unacceptable to many people.
But Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had witnessed countless scenes of life and death, had no such concerns.
And just at the moment she increased her strength.
The high priest panicked.
"wait wait wait!"
"I said!"
Wu Chaoyang's face had turned purple from being pinched.
She wanted to resist, but she was no match for Zhou Xiaoxiao.
Can only wait for death in despair.
Just then.
Ling Tian spoke.
"Xiaoxiao, that's enough."
Zhou Xiaoxiao let go of her hand and retreated behind Ling Tian.
The meaning is obvious.
She was just a guard, or a thug, and she obeyed Ling Tian in everything.
This meaning was also clearly conveyed to the high priest.
He didn't see Zhou Xiaoxiao last night.
But he had secretly observed Zhou Xiaoxiao's every move.
I thought it was a scam...
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xiaoxiao was not the one in charge.
Wu Chaoyang coughed violently, and before he could recover, his eyes had already fallen on Ling Tian and the other person.
He hesitated and looked at the high priest again.
She naturally knew that the high priest was still alive, but she just didn't understand.
Why did the high priest give in?
for her?
impossible.
The high priest only thinks about the whole clan, how could he bow his head for her alone?
Just as she was thinking this, the high priest whispered.
"Do you two seniors know Manshan?"
The word Manshan reminded Ling Tian of Zhou Manshan.
But that was obviously not what the high priest meant.
Zhou Xiaoxiao frowned.
"You mean the high-level monsters are everywhere in the mountains?"
"Exactly."
The high priest nodded, his tone becoming more helpless.
"What I said before was not entirely a lie..."
"Half a month ago, we were attacked by a high-level monster."
"That monster is Manshan."
"Although I tried my best, I still couldn't repel it."
“Someone helped me to drive Manshan out of our habitat.”
"But the other party also left a condition - if someone comes here, no matter what method we use, we must ask that person to take action and eliminate Manshan."
As he spoke, he raised his head.
His gaze paused on Zhou Xiaoxiao for a moment, and finally fell on Ling Tian.
"If I'm not mistaken, you are the one he is waiting for?"
Ling Tian said nothing.
obviously.
If the high priest had not lied.
So the people who were secretly targeting him had actually started planning for a long time.
Half a month ago...
At that time, he had just arrived in Pancheng.
Just as the martial arts competition was about to begin.
In other words, that guy knew at that time that he could ruin the martial arts competition?
No, to be precise, he can survive.
Who is it?
As far as he could remember, no such person existed.
There was no point in making random guesses, he asked directly.
"anything else?"
"Gone."
The high priest shook his head.
"That's the only condition they offer."
After a pause, he added.
"But what we said before was not completely a lie. Chaoyang is indeed a descendant of the Wu family, and Wu Heng... is indeed our great-uncle."
Ling Tian didn't care about this.
The great-uncle is not the ancestor.
Since Wu Heng is leaving, it means he has broken off with this group of people.
It's useless to make friends with him.
He pointed to the mountain in the distance and asked the high priest.
"Is that the mountain you mentioned?"
"Yes."
What is the strength of the monster in Manshan?
Can they really deal with it?
Ling Tian had many questions in his mind, but he didn't say them out loud.
Letting the high priest and Wu Chaoyang wait here for a while, he pulled Zhou Xiaoxiao to a distance.
"Tell me about Manshan."
"have nothing to say."
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at the mirage in Ling Tian's arms.
"Manshan is indeed a high-level monster, but it is not difficult to deal with."
"But the size isn't that exaggerated. Manshan... just as the name suggests, it's all over the mountains."
"Manshan is not a single monster, but a tribe."
“It looks like a flower.”
"Although it is a high-level monster, it is actually very easy to deal with."
"The trouble is that Manshan has a strong ability to reproduce, and it is almost impossible to completely eliminate it."
The mountains look like flowers and reproduce like flowers.
As long as a seed survives, within a few years, it will grow all over the mountains.
It sounds confusing, but that's the nature of Manshan.
Ling Tian raised his eyebrow and asked.
"What if we set the mountain on fire?"
"Set fire to..."
Zhou Xiaoxiao widened her eyes.
No, setting the mountain on fire? Are you serious?
Water can be blocked, mountains can be moved, but fire cannot be controlled.
No matter how powerful a warrior is, it is impossible to control the fire!
Once out of control, the harm will be unimaginable!
Just when he thought of this, Zhou Xiaoxiao suddenly realized that this was not the central city.
This is the main city.
And it is an almost desolate place.
Even if we burn the mountain...there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it?
She scratched her head.
“No one has used this method before, and we don’t know if it will work.”
"but……"
"The whole mountain is full of living things, so they can't burn, right?"
