483: Chapter 483: The Crazy Hu Li 483: Chapter 483: The Crazy Hu Li According to Sally, oh no, it should be Hu Li, according to her, her father Tu Tan used the Four Elents to create the Immortality Elixir, but how did she manage to keep it to herself without giving it to the King?
“Unexpectedly, you’re still an old demon that’s lived for thousands of years,” Ye Shikai jeered with a cold sneer.
“Yes, so many years have passed.
I’ve been living alone in the tomb, but now, Atlantis has reopened, and you’ve co too, haven’t you?” Hu Li laughed hysterically.
“How did Tu Tan give you the elixir?” Ye Shikai asked.
“Back then, I was in charge of building the tomb, and the King gave a secret decree: apart from , anyone who knew about the tomb would be buried with it,” Hu Li said through gritted teeth, as if she harbored deep hatred for that King.
“The people you’re referring to…
are they the hundred thousand citizens who built the tomb?” Ye Shikai probed tentatively.
Although he had guessed as much, deep down he didn’t want to believe that a ruler of a nation would go so far as to bury a hundred thousand citizens to keep a secret.
Such a tyrant would be no surprise if the common people resented him.
“Who else do you think?
He was a tyrant, deserving of death by everyone,” Hu Li shouted.
“Every single citizen of Atlantis should kill this tyrant.”
“So it was for this reason that you and your father agreed to definitively never give this divine dicine to him,” Ye Shikai continued.
“What we did was for the sake of all the citizens of Atlantis; it was perfectly justifiable,” Hu Li pointed at Ye Shikai’s nose and yelled loudly.
Ye Shikai was shocked; Hu Li seed extrely agitated, and the topic seed to have struck a nerve with her.
She was very sensitive, seemingly a bit… neurotic.
“Yes, yes, you’re the noble one,” Ye Shikai rolled his eyes and then his expression suddenly turned very solemn.
“That King probably didn’t just kill those citizens, you…”
“Exactly, to such a person, it’s quite normal to kill the donkey once the grinding is done.
When I received that secret decree, I knew he wouldn’t let go.
In his eyes, everyone was just an ant, an animal to be used for his service, and would naturally be gotten rid of once they were of no use,” Hu Li suddenly collapsed to the ground, her expression fierce.
“I was the designer of the entire tomb.
Keeping alive was like providing tomb raiders with an accurate ‘human flesh map,’ so, he probably dread of killing .”
“So after designing the tomb, you ran away, right.”
“Yes, I went ho and discussed with my father.
We absolutely couldn’t give the Immortality Elixir to him; otherwise, it would curse many generations, and the people of Atlantis would have to live forever in the agony of enslavent.”
“But sohow, the King found out about my father’s and my secret plot, and as a result…”
“That bastard killed my father, beheading him,” Hu Li cursed loudly, and in anger, she kicked the golden coffin several tis.
“Ah!” With a push of her arms, she actually overturned the pure gold coffin.
Ye Shikai felt a powerful energy; Hu Li turned out to be a master of cultivation, hiding her strength all along.
Ye Shikai bit his teeth in resentnt; vulnerable-looking won were indeed deadly to him.
And now, her hatred for her father’s murder was rekindled, with all her endless fury being vented on this coffin…
Without thinking any further, Ye Shikai could guess the subsequent plot: Tu Tan must have given the Immortality Elixir to Hu Li, and she naturally ingested it, thus surviving for tens of thousands of years until now…
“The King couldn’t find , and in the end, he died with indignation.
But before his death, he listed as a top-wanted criminal.
The tyrant’s death should have been a happy event, but in the end…”
“It must be the ancient flood,” Ye Shikai said indifferently.
“You said that the Four Elents are the key to maintaining the natural stability of Atlantis, and their energy was used for Alchemy.
As a result, the flood occurred.”
“No, Alchemy was not the main cause.
This bastard, he actually dared to use the Four Elents for his burial, wanting to be a King underground.
Ridiculous.
It was when the Four Elents were placed in the tomb that led to the whole city being subrged by the flood.” Hu Li cursed vehently, even Ye Shikai felt that this King was truly a scoundrel, for his actions caused the entire nation to be obliterated.
“And the spirits of those Soldiers are still carrying out the tyrant’s orders from thousands of years ago.
I dare not go out because they’re still relentlessly hunting for .”
“So, you’ve spent these ten thousand years in this tomb,” Ye Shikai gasped, this woman in front of him, what exactly had she gone through?
“Yes, so now I must destroy this tyrant, haha.” Hu Li laughed maniacally, she seed to have gone mad…
“Then why did you want to harm ?
I have no grudge against you,” Ye Shikai clenched his fists; he wanted to understand.
“You outsiders, all coveting the treasures of my nation, you all deserve to die, hahaha.”
Ye Shikai’s expression grew serious; this Hu Li was like a madwoman, capable of anything.
Suddenly, his pupils shrank sharply, as if he had rembered sothing.
“Those two won, where did you take them?” Ye Shikai suddenly demanded in a stern voice.
“Oh, you an those two won?
Seems like you’ve finally realized.
But rest assured, they are both unhard.” Hu Li spoke with a smile, walked over to the wall, and pressed a switch.
A stone door opened.
“Umm…
umm…” Ye Shikai’s face showed shock as the two won were bound hand and foot, a piece of white cloth stuffed in their mouths.
The won were none other than Athena and Iga Kawa; they struggled to break free, but the ropes were tied tightly, to no avail.
They wanted to shout, but the cloth sealed their mouths shut.
Indeed, they had been kidnapped by Hu Li and brought here.
“Haha, these two foolish won were easier to deceive than you,” Hu Li said coldly, walked up to Athena, and slapped her hard, shouting, “Smack, be quiet!”
“Hu Li, we bear you no grudge; we won’t interfere with your business.
We just ask to leave.
What do you think?” Ye Shikai forced himself to stay calm; getting agitated now would only harm the two won.
“That won’t do, they are my sacrifices.”
“What…
what sacrifices?” Ye Shikai’s brow furrowed tightly, a bad feeling surging in his heart.
“It’s only I who can lead Atlantis back to its glory.
Of course, they are sacrifices for my coronation ceremony.” Hu Li stood in place, laughing madly, the dagger in her hand pressed firmly against Athena’s neck.
“You want to be the King, are you mad?”
“Haha, Hades, you’ve helped before, so I can show you rcy and let you leave this place.
How about that?
As for them…”
“These two won, I must take them with .” Ye Shikai interrupted Hu Li coldly before she could finish speaking.
