At the end of the street, two people suddenly appeared.
They were wearing clothes that were completely different from the cultivation world, but they looked almost the same. One was tall and thin with a gloomy gaze, while the other was much shorter and kept rubbing the mustache on his chin.
Both of them had a dignified aura.
The leader of the group ran forward and bowed: "Sirs, why have you come personally?"
The two of them looked at Liu Ping: "We're here to meet the new Saint"
Above their heads, a similar line of words appeared:
[Saint of Agony (pseudo)]
[This is a subordinate of the Goddess of Agony, a Saint (pseudo), he can become a card of the Lady of Agony at any time]
Liu Ping instantly understood.
Actually, he almost fell into the Lady of Agony's trap like them.
Fortunately, Yana saw through this matter, and he was able to obtain a clean Saint title.
Liu Ping smiled and clasped his fist: "Greetings, I'm the new Saint that the Goddess has arranged, Liu Ping"
"Chen Ling" the tall one said.
"Chen Feng" the short one said.
Chen Ling said: "There were originally seven Saints, but recently, the Goddess suddenly announced that the other Saints have reached the standard of strength and can leave"
Chen Feng said: "So only the two of us are left here"
Chen Ling couldn't wait: "Brother Liu, may I know what happened outside?
Why did the Goddess take away so many people at once? "
Liu Ping smiled.
Very good —
They didn't even know this, it seems that this place is isolated from the outside world.
The two of them were probably the weakest among the Saints, or else Lady Agony would have brought them out.
After all, the Lady of Pain needed manpower.
As for the two of them, they asked such a question right away. Either they were too careless, or they were frightened and couldn't care less.
"Everything is fine outside, but the Divine War is very intense, so we need a lot more manpower" Liu Ping said.
"How's the situation?" Chen Feng hurriedly asked.
"We lost a lot of people" Liu Ping looked at their nervous faces and continued: "But overall, we still have the upper hand and are gradually moving towards victory"
The two of them looked at each other and sighed in relief.
Liu Ping slowly said:"But there's a new situation, I don't know if I should tell you — —"
The two of them became nervous again.
"Brother Liu, we're all on the same side. Go ahead and speak. It's fine" Chen Ling said.
"That's right, we're all working for the Goddess. Just tell us" Chen Feng said.
Liu Ping said, "The Ancient god has betrayed the Goddess and is preparing to summon something to destroy the cultivation world."
"What?!"
"Is there such a thing?"
The two of them said in unison.
Chen Ling's face was filled with disbelief. Chen Feng wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Yeah, I'm afraid there will be Card Masters coming to cause trouble soon" Liu Ping said.
They were very timid.
Why would Lady Agony send such people to the cultivation world and use a large number of cultivators to nurture them?
As soon as they saw him, they called him "Brother Liu".
He was a newcomer, yet he was able to receive such a form of address. Was it because they liked to address others as brothers, or was it because they had a low opinion of themselves?
"Brother Liu, what kind of contribution did you make for the Goddess to arrange for you to come to the cultivation world?" Chen Ling asked.
"Oh, actually, it's nothing much. In the recent few battles, no one can beat me. Luo Sheng wanted to trick me, but I killed him" Liu Ping said casually.
This time, the two of them held their breaths.
"Brother Liu, you just arrived — — if there's a chance, how about we spar a bit?" Chen Ling asked.
"Sure, no problem, let's place a bet" Liu Ping smiled.
"Then we'll be going first. About the Ancient God, after you've settled down, use this to find us." Chen Feng gave Liu Ping a card.
There was a black walkie-talkie drawn on the card.
"Thank you, take care, I'll find you later" Liu Ping received the card and said.
"When I first arrived, it was quite difficult to recruit followers, do you need our help, brother Liu?" Chen Ling asked.
"No need — — right, how many followers do you have?" Liu Ping asked.
"I have over 300" Chen Ling said.
"I have over 500" Chen Feng said.
"What about the previous seven Saints? how many followers did they have?"
"Over 3000"
"That's right. See you later."
"Alright, see you later."
The two of them nodded at Liu Ping, then took a step back and disappeared.
They appeared directly inside a Temple.
"Do you think that brat is actually strong, or is he just here to make himself look good?" Chen Ling asked.
"I don't know why, but when I look at him, I feel a bit uneasy. he's probably not just bluffing" Chen Feng said.
Chen Ling said: "Then if other Card Users really do come in — —"
Chen Feng said: "How can we take the risk ourselves? Isn't he strong? Let him do it."
Chen Ling nodded in agreement "I think so too, but what if — — he doesn't?"
Chen Feng's expression darkened, and spoke in a low voice "Hmph, if he doesn't know what's good for him, then he can't blame us."
Chen Ling thought for a bit "You mean — —"
"That's right!"
Chen Feng drew a card and showed it to him.
There was a white flag drawn on the card.
"A white flag"
"Surrender Card, a rare Card"
"After using this card, the Card user will be considered to have given up the battle, allowing the opponent to draw a card from them, and be protected by the Law of Reality from then on"
With the card in hand, Chen Feng's presence became even stronger, speaking with a pressuring tone: "If he doesn't come, we'll surrender first!"
"That's right! We'll surrender first and show him the consequences of not listening! "Chen Ling clapped his hands.
Chen Ling looked at the white flag card, thought for a bit, then said: "That's still not enough, just in case, it's best that we do both at the same time"
Chen Feng doubtfully asked "You mean …"
Chen Ling proudly took out another card and showed it to Chen Feng.
Two beams of light were drawn on the card.
"Designated Return Card"
"Movement Card, a rare Card"
"Using this card will immediately leave the current world and return to the predetermined coordinates"
"We can directly return to Purgatory?"
Chen Feng was overjoyed "That's great, this way, no matter who comes, they won't be able to keep us here."
"That's right, even if it's a Professionist from the Age of Nightmare, they won't be able to do anything to us brothers!" Chen Ling proudly declared.
…
Liu Ping walked into the restaurant, sat on a chair at the entrance and silently waited.
The two people just now were a bit strange.
They clearly looked scared, but still looked arrogant and imposing, as if they had a card up their sleeve.
Tch.
So contradictory.
Could it be that I'm a bad judge of character?
While Liu Ping was silently doubtful, he suddenly saw a cultivator wearing a large hat walking towards him from the main road.
"Guest, please come in!"
Liu Ping stood up and greeted him with a smile.
He looked at the other party.
A line of text appeared above his head:
[Ninth Abyss Demon Beast King, Divine Reflection realm]
It's the Demon Beast King … not the previous Demon Beast King.
Wherever the Demon King went, death would follow.
It's best if I don't expose myself.
Liu Ping silently muttered in his mind.
The other party nodded, walked into the restaurant and sat down at a table near the window.
A hoarse and thick voice came from under the hat:
"Bring me 8 dishes, 4 meat and 4 vegetables, as well as a warm jug of good wine"
"Very well, please wait a moment, guest"
Liu Ping went to the kitchen and ordered the dishes.
When he turned back, he was stopped by the other party again.
"Waiter, come here, I have something to ask you. If you answer well, I'll reward you" the man in the hat said.
"Very well, guest" Liu Ping went forward.
"Sit"
"I'm not sitting"
"Sit if I tell you to"
Liu Ping sat down.
"Let me ask you, have you seen those unruly heretic cultivators here?" the man in the hat asked.
"… Guest, I'm just a waiter. I've seen quite a few people, but I can't differentiate between normal people and heretic cultivators" Liu Ping said helplessly.
"Let me tell you, there's a blind, one-armed guy with missing meridians who might be passing by recently. He's very dangerous, tell me immediately if you see him" the man in the hat said.
"Very well … Hmm?"
Liu Ping was stunned.
Blind, one-armed guy with missing meridians, wasn't that the original him?
The hat lifted slightly, revealing a pair of bright and moving eyes, looking over with a smile.
The previous Demon Beast King, Cat Demon Zhao Chanyi!
She had already rushed over after receiving his transmission talisman.
But her title was the Ninth Abyss Demon Beast King …
In that case, she had already regained the position of Demon King?
"How did you become the Demon King again? Where's the guy who chased you off? "Liu Ping asked.
"He disappeared, I don't know where he went" Zhao Chanyi said.
"Disappeared …" Liu Ping was stunned.
This was a storyline world, people who died by accident would be resurrected.
But the Demon Beast King had disappeared.
That meant that he was captured and used as a slave.
Tsk —
Wait a minute.
Now that Zhao Chanyi was the Demon King, wouldn't it be faster to ask her for information than him running around like a headless fly?
(TN: Demon beast king is too long. let's use Demon King for short)
