Outside Shanxia City.
Luo Qingxian and the other girls stared warily at the Wandering Fist King who was staggering toward them.
Dou Dou suddenly took a step forward, a sword in one hand and an umbrella in the other, puffing herself up in a cutesy fierce way as she said, "Co on then! Don't think Dou Dou's scared of you!"
Tu Tu clenched her two tender little fists and imdiately stepped up to pose, "Tu Tu's not scared of you either!"
In terms of montum, these two several-hundred-year-old little lolis had it completely under control, not losing out in the slightest.
And honestly, even if it really ca to blows, with Tu Tu around, given the Wandering Fist King's current state, he wouldn't be able to take any advantage anyway.
However—
Beyond everyone's expectations, the Wandering Fist King was quiet as if he were the only one left in this world. He walked straight forward, brushed past the girls, and didn't acknowledge any of them.
He didn't even respond when the three Gate Guards stepped up to greet him respectfully.
Tu Tu pinched her nose with her hand, face full of disgust. "Well aren't you sothing, you bad guy. Can't even bother with basic hygiene, you stink to high heaven. Just watch how Tu Tu's gonna fix you up!"
With that she raised her little fists, about to rush up and beat the Wandering Fist King.
Xu Qianqing and the others were so startled by this they almost had their souls scared out of their bodies.
Zhang Yi hurriedly ran up and grabbed Tu Tu, clapping a hand over her mouth.
"Enough, my little auntie, stop ssing around already. You trying to get us killed?"
"What's it to you whether he's hygienic or not? And you still want to go hit him."
"Is the whole ocean your backyard that you gotta管 everything?"
"Where do you even find such an overbearing little loli like you?"
"..."
Only when the Wandering Fist King's figure completely disappeared from sight did everyone let out a long breath of relief.
When he had just passed by, the invisible pressure he exuded made everyone feel nothing but despair and helplessness.
It was really hard to imagine what kind of monster Luo Xiu had been fighting for half a month straight.
At this mont—
The three Gate Guards looked in the direction where the Wandering Fist King had disappeared, all with complicated expressions.
The direction the Fist King was walking in wasn't toward Shanxia City, which ant he was leaving.
"He stayed here for hundreds of years and suddenly he's just gone. It's really hard to get used to."
"Must be that through this battle he gained so insight and is going to the place he really ought to go."
"..."
...
Luo Qingxian and the others flew into the sky, scanning that vast basin area at close range, their hearts all pounding wildly.
Within the range of Upside-down Sky, the quality of space and matter was far stronger than the outside world, so Taoist Arts that could collapse mountains and split the earth outside might only leave a small pit on the ground here.
Yet those two guys had only fought with their Physical Bodies, and still managed to cause such large-scale destruction here, forcibly altering the terrain for dozens of miles around!
A perfectly good stretch of plain had just been punched into a basin like this!
Very quickly, Luo Qingxian used her Divine Sense to locate Luo Xiu's figure within the basin.
What she saw was not what she had imagined at all. Luo Xiu looked like nothing had happened, sitting there hugging a chunk of spicy dried Demonic Beast at, wolfing it down. His mouth was shiny with grease, and plenty of chili flakes were stuck around his lips.
Luo Qingxian suddenly felt that Her Majesty looked really cute eating like this.
But she understood too. After brawling nonstop for half a month, Luo Xiu was definitely exhausted and starving.
Dou Dou was the first to fly over, directly lunging into Luo Xiu's arms.
"Chen Shuisheng, what are you eating? Let Dou Dou have so too!"
Tu Tu followed right after. "Tu Tu wants to eat too!"
And just like that, the dried at in Luo Xiu's hand was tyrannically snatched away and split between the two little lolis.
Dou Dou sat on Luo Xiu's thigh, and suddenly stretched out her greasy little hand, snapping her fingers with a not-very-loud snap at Luo Xiu.
Luo Xiu frowned in confusion. "You sick or sothing?"
Dou Dou said, "Sister Dou Dou doesn't eat your stuff for free. Sit still and don't move."
Before Luo Xiu could react, a thread of green Spiritual Power flowed into his body, bringing with it an indescribable comfort, as though all the fatigue in his body had been washed away.
And this feeling was very familiar. Back when An Ran had treated his injuries, it had felt pretty much the sa.
Luo Xiu asked, "A new ability you learned?"
Dou Dou said proudly, "This is the 'Green Light of Love'."
Tu Tu said, "Elephant Trunk, don't let Her Majesty the Queen fool you. This is our clan's 'Elf Holy Light'. Her Majesty loves giving things random nas."
Luo Xiu just smiled and said nothing.
Dou Dou liked giving Taoist Divine Abilities weird nas. He'd long since gotten used to it.
At this ti Luo Qingxian walked over and said gently, "Your Majesty, are we going into the city to look for people now?"
Luo Xiu stood up and stretched his limbs. His bones imdiately crackled and popped, sounding oddly therapeutic.
"Let's go. The fight's done, ti to get down to business."
"Your Majesty, you seem very happy."
"Who wouldn't be, running into that kind of opponent?"
"..."
The strongest cultivators in Shanxia City were undoubtedly the three Gate Guards and that mysterious Fist King.
Now that the Fist King was gone, the three Gate Guards alone naturally couldn't stop Luo Xiu.
As for those War Soldiers full of iron-blooded killing intent, they could be completely ignored.
...
In a base not far from the "Upside-down Gate", Luo Xiu t Aobangma.
Because the bodies and appearances of the Three-Star Clan were different from ordinary people, even the won were all over two and a half ters tall, making them extrely conspicuous in a crowd.
Luo Xiu walked up to that Three-Star clansman, cupped his fists, and said, "Might you be Senior Aobangma Ao?"
Hearing this, that Three-Star clansman froze for a mont, then hurriedly said, "No, no, brother, you've got the wrong guy. Aobangma is my dad, I'm Ao Wei."
Luo Xiu kept a straight face and pretended not to be embarrassed. "Could you take to see him?"
Ao Wei looked troubled, glancing at the various vicious-looking War Soldiers all around.
Luo Xiu swept his gaze over them and said faintly, "Before I ca into the city, I already dug graves for you lot. Any brother who doesn't want to lie in one had best not appear in my line of sight."
Hearing this, the War Soldiers all scrambled to scatter like they'd been pardoned, none of them wanting to stay.
Honestly, if they didn't have orders on their heads, none of them wanted to co face to face with this Great Demon King.
This Great Demon King already had the glorious record of "fighting six hundred Emperors alone", and he'd just gone toe-to-toe with the Fist King and fought to a draw, conveniently digging a huge grave pit outside the city in the process.
Tell , against a terrifying existence like that, what's the damn point of sending an army to suppress him?
...
A short while later.
Led by Ao Wei, Luo Xiu and his group entered the deepest part of the base, where in a laboratory they saw Aobangma, who was busy at work.
There was also a female Three-Star clansman present—that was Ao Wei's mother and Aobangma's wife, nad "Xiu Hua".
Right now Aobangma was working in front of so things that Luo Xiu couldn't understand at all, things that looked like "instrunts", as if he were testing so kind of tal and analyzing its material structure.
Luo Xiu shot Dou Dou and Tu Tu a look, signaling them not to touch anything here, then walked straight up to Aobangma.
He thought for a mont, then suddenly said, "Patriarch Ao, I am Luo Tian."
Before coming here, Luo Qingxian had told him that the Azure Emperor and the Three-star Clan Leader had a very good relationship, half teacher and half friend.
So Luo Xiu figured he'd just reveal his identity directly. It would also save a lot of unnecessary talking in circles.
A mont later—
Xiu Hua suddenly reached out and hugged Luo Xiu, actually crying tears of joy.
"That's wonderful, Ah Tian, so you're still alive!"
"I thought you already…"
Luo Xiu had to stand on tiptoe while Xiu Hua bent down. The posture of this hug was really weird.
He glanced over with a strange expression at Aobangma, whose eyes were brimming with tears, and thought, Aren't you gonna say sothing about your wife?
Aobangma wiped his tears away and asked with a smile, "Why has Your Majesty co here?"
Luo Xiu gently pushed Xiu Hua away and gave her a small smile, then said frankly, "Of course I've got sothing I need your help with, but that can wait till we've gotten you all out of here."
Aobangma smiled. "Since Your Majesty could make it in here, that ans you've already dealt with those three Gate Guards."
Luo Xiu asked, "Is there anything you need to pack up?"
Just then Dou Dou ca running over, reaching out her little hand to tug at the hem of Luo Xiu's clothes. She looked up at him and said, "What Dou Dou wants to remind you is, have Aobangma help you open that box. There's treasure inside."
Luo Xiu rubbed her head. "We've only just t and you already want to ask him for help. That's very impolite."
Dou Dou said, "But there's treasure inside."
Luo Xiu looked at Aobangma, a bit embarrassed. "Um… senior of the Primordial Divine Treasury, could you help open it?"
"..."
