The God of Sky and Earth

Chapter 781: Deadly Game!

"Oww oww..."

The Demonic True Realm's third-grade Three-headed Dragon-horned Python was overjoyed. It raised its head proudly and the menacing serpent head in the middle opened its mouth wide, flicking its forked tongue as it swallowed the Dragon Crystal Fruit. All around, the numerous Three-headed Dragon-horned Pythons roared and hissed continuously.

"Someone!"

Suddenly, Su Yi shifted his gaze towards the outside of the gorge. With his sharp spiritual power, he sensed that someone was approaching.

"Hiss hiss..."

Immediately, Xu Chen and the Three-headed Dragon-horned Python sensed it too, their gazes all turned towards the direction of the gorge entrance.

Under the scrutiny of those gazes, a figure cautiously emerged. Wrapped tightly in coarse clothing from head to toe, the person's entire body was concealed. A cloak and hat covered the head, extending far enough to only reveal a small portion of the face.

"Hiss, hiss..."

As they gazed upon the figure, the Three-headed Dragon-horned Pythons' serpent-like eyes instantly became menacing, emanating a fierce aura. Waves of cold, eerie breath burst forth, filling the gorge with a strong stench.

The figure looked up, locking its gaze on the large group of Three-headed Dragon-horned Pythons that appeared ahead, astonishment reflected in its eyes.

And as his gaze fell upon the two young figures, especially when it landed on Su Yi, who had cast a disguise spell, a look of astonishment mixed with joy filled his eyes. From a distance, he exclaimed, "You are Yi Su, you really are here!"

"It's you."

As Su Yi gazed upon this somewhat mysterious figure, he felt a sense of astonishment. At first glance, he recognized that it was none other than the scale-covered youth he had encountered a few days ago in the Central Region city.

"Hey, do you know this person?"

Xu Chen also felt curious and recognized him. He had glimpsed this young man briefly on the martial arts platform in Central Region city before, leaving a deep impression.

"At last, I found you!"

The scaly young man, with a hint of excitement in his eyes, quickly approached Su Yi and Xu Chen. He appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, fully covered from his neck down, tightly wrapped and sealed. His head was also concealed by a hooded robe, hiding his face, with only half of his face visible when he raised his gaze.

"Do you have something to tell me?"

Su Yi was somewhat surprised. He seemed unfamiliar with this young man, but he vaguely remembered him. The young man wanted to sign up for the Saint Martial Assembly, but he had mistakenly gone to the wrong registration area. Su Yi had once helped him find the right direction.

"There is something important, and many people have set a trap to kill you!"

The young man with scales on his face looked up. His entire face was covered in scattered black scales, and his hair was disheveled. Even his scalp had sparsely scattered black scales that intertwined with his sparse hair. Wrinkles and veins appeared on both sides of his scaled face, making him appear quite ugly. However, as he looked at Su Yi at this moment, there was a sense of relief in his gaze, as if his heart had been tightly wound up and had finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Someone wants to kill me?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yi felt slightly surprised.

As for the appearance of this young man with a face full of scales, Su Yi remained unfazed. He had already known, as Xi Wuqing had told him, that this was a half-demon body, a descendant of the union between the demon tribe and the human tribe.

However, the union between the demon tribe and the human tribe was not easy. They could not be accepted by the entire human and demon tribes. The descendants of this union, only had less than one in a thousand chance of being normal. The rest either died prematurely or became half-beast creatures, lacking any special talents. Some would even be bought in the underground black market to be used as livestock or playthings.

Half-beast creatures, beings that are part human and part beast, don't possess many of the talents of the demon tribe. Only those with a fierce half-demon body are truly formidable, surpassing ordinary humans.

From Xi Wuqing's words, Su Yi learned that the young man before him, with his scaled appearance, could barely be considered a half-beast creature. He seemed to be somehow linked to the lizard-like demon tribe, yet there was also something slightly different about him.

"They seem to be disciples of the Sacred Mountain, and there are other mountain gates too, with many people in them. They have set up a deadly trap, waiting for you!"

The scaled young man informed Su Yi that he had inadvertently witnessed everything. He overheard the conversations of those individuals, including disciples of the Sacred Mountain and other mountain gates. They had united together and set up a deadly trap at the very location where they had last emerged from the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm. They were waiting for Su Yi, intending to kill him!

"Sacred Mountain!"

Hearing the words "Sacred Mountain," Su Yi was already ninety percent convinced.

Su Yi, too, was not surprised. He had already received the news. A glimmer of crimson light flickered in his eyes, revealing a chilling aura. He then asked the scaled young man, "How do you know me and that I am the one they want to kill?"

"I have seen you before, I know your name is Yi Su. I overheard their conversation by accident. There are many of them, they are very strong, and they want to kill you. You are a good person, you have helped me before. I don't want you to die in their hands. I've been trying to find out where you are, and I heard some news. You have found a treasure in this place, and there are still many people waiting outside, but it seems like they are afraid to come in."

The scaled young man looked at Su Yi. On his fragmented scales and the face covered with green veins, his gaze towards Su Yi was very sincere.

He felt grateful for Su Yi's guidance back then. Among all the looks of disdain and unease from everyone else, only Yi Su showed no signs of avoidance or disgust. He knew that such a person must be a good person, even though there were rumors that Yi Su from the Overlord Sect was a ferocious individual.

"Thank you!"

Su Yi nodded and thanked the scaled young man.

"It seems like the disciples of the Sacred Mountain are getting ready to attack you. What do you plan to do?"

Xu Chen said, but he wasn't worried much for Su Yi. Not just now, even with Su Yi's previous strength, it wouldn't be easy for the disciples of Sacred Mountain in the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm to kill him.

"When something comes without any effort, it is as they wished!"

Su Yi said in a calm manner, his eyes filled with a menacing gaze, "I happen to be someone who is looking for the Sacred Mountain. In the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, there is no need to fear Sacred Mountain."

"Don't know your name yet?"

And then, Su Yi asked the young boy with scales.

"My name is Flame Scale, because I have scales all over my body."

Flame Scale felt a bit embarrassed. He had scales all over his body, and he was half-human and half-beast.

"I am Yi Su, from the Overlord Sect," Yi Su introduced himself. Su Yi was introducing himself.

"I am Xu Chen, the emptiness of emptiness, the dust of the mortal world," Xu Chen smiled faintly and also introduced himself to Flame Scale.

"I have seen you too, you are very strong and also a good person."

Flame Scale nodded and smiled at Xu Chen, appearing somewhat nervous and bashful. No one had ever treated him so warmly and sincerely, taking the initiative to introduce themselves. He had also seen Xu Chen before, but from Xu Chen's gaze, he couldn't detect any hostility or aversion.

"Compared to this person, I am definitely the good guy."

Xu Chen glanced at Su Yi and, compared to this guy, he felt that he was indeed a good person.

"Could you please tell me where the people from the Sacred Mountain are waiting for me?" Su Yi inquired, wanting to know the whereabouts of the disciples of the Sacred Mountain.

"In the center of the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm, they seemed to know roughly where you were, and predicted the path you would take. They plan to join forces and try to kill you!"

Flame Scale informed Su Yi, his expression moved and a hint of worry furrowed his brow as he said, "Are you still planning to go find them? They have many people, and they are all very powerful. It's just the two of you!"
