Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 1788 - 1738: Coercion

Capítulo 1788: Chapter 1738: Coercion

Outside the abandoned temple.

Amidst the raging snowstorm. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Silhouettes gradually emerged into everyone’s sight.

The leading figure was clad in black animal skin, his head also wrapped in a mask made of animal skin, but his eyes emitted a chilling light as if ready to devour someone.

He was the leader of the Black Tiger Gang.

Also known as a Snow Walker himself.

Black Tiger surrounded the dilapidated temple with over ninety of his men, his cold gaze fixed on Xiao Yi and the others, finally settling on Old Wolf Head. With a sinister grin, he said, “Old Wolf Head, it’s been a long time. I’ve missed you terribly!”

Old Wolf Head snorted coldly, extremely disdainful of Black Tiger, and replied icily, “Missed me? I think you’re figuring out how to finish me off!”

There was a deep-seated hatred between them.

This was Xiao Yi’s first reaction upon witnessing the two meet.

Black Tiger laughed heartily, indifferent, and said casually, “You can’t say that. After all, you were the one who brought me into the ranks of the Snow Walkers. But, you old man, you’re too stubborn, not adaptable…”

Xiao Yi looked at Old Wolf Head in surprise.

He didn’t expect Old Wolf Head to have such history with Black Tiger.

Of course.

While surprised, it also made Xiao Yi somewhat puzzled.

If Old Wolf Head held such regard for him, why did they now meet as if enemies ready for battle?

Old Wolf Head snorted coldly, full of disdain, and said, “The last thing I’ll regret in my life is bringing you into the Snow Walker trade. If I hadn’t brought you into it, the vast Northern Territory wouldn’t be in such a state!”

Kan Ze, Old Wolf Head, looked ferocious and angry.

Xiao Yi pondered.

His eyes were fixed on Black Tiger, wanting to see how he would respond.

The facts did not disappoint him.

Black Tiger scoffed, his hands spread in an innocent gesture, and said, “How can you blame me for the Northern Territory’s state? Even without me, such a dramatic change was bound to happen. I merely hastened the process. Besides…”

Black Tiger slowly approached Old Wolf Head.

He then placed a roasted beast leg on the campfire Old Wolf Head and his people had lit, rotating the stick to heat the leg more evenly, and said with a sneer, “You should know it’s the trend… All forces are racing against time to excavate various perilous secret realms. We are merely going with the flow.”

“Going with the flow, indeed!”

Old Wolf Head laughed in fury, “Excavating and exploring secret realms isn’t wrong, but you can’t disregard the lives of countless innocents for selfish desires. You should know how dangerous your actions are now. If your plans fail and that place loses control, neither the entire Northern Territory nor the ancestors of the Northern Territory will spare you. Aren’t you afraid at all?”

“What’s there to be afraid of?”

Black Tiger laughed heartily, not taking Old Wolf Head’s words seriously, “I’m just following them; the true culprits are you all!”

Gulp!

Old Wolf Head swallowed hard: “Stop your nonsense and trying to smear us; this matter has nothing to do with us… Clearly, it’s your own greed for wealth and the benefits promised to you, leading you to become an accomplice and helping the wicked!”

This time, Black Tiger didn’t refute.

As Old Wolf Head said, he indeed betrayed them for the high stakes promised by the Extreme Bliss Heavenly Palace.

However.

He wouldn’t admit it face to face.

Black Tiger sneered, “I don’t know what you’re talking about… but I know those so-called ancient relics and life-threatening treasures are precious legacies left by ancestors. All I’m doing is bringing these treasures into our hands faster; how is that wrong?”

Old Wolf Head was furious, “Scoundrel, you still don’t understand where you went wrong! As you said, those places indeed have treasures left by predecessors, and seeking them isn’t wrong. But you know full well the Heavenly Sword Tomb suppresses those things, yet you still insist on excavating the Heavenly Sword Tomb for your own desires. How can I become complicit with you?”

Within the Heavenly Sword Tomb are not only demonic weapons but also the legendary owner of the Sword God Tower, Sword God Nie Xiaofeng’s true form!

You must understand.

This Nie Xiaofeng’s true form is a divine weapon.

He transformed from a divine weapon into a human.

He even founded the Sword God Tower, an organization that was a dominant force in the Nine Heavens Domain during the Ancient Times, and eventually, to stop the extraterrestrial invaders, he sacrificed himself to suppress those beings beneath the Heavenly Sword Tomb.

Such a divine weapon.

Not only in today’s world, but even during the Ancient Times when the Nine Heavens Domain was intact, it was unparalleled.

Plus, the Northern Territory to which the Heavenly Sword Tomb belongs is under the jurisdiction of the Extreme Bliss Heavenly Palace.

They naturally wouldn’t want to miss this opportunity.

Over the years…

The Extreme Bliss Heavenly Palace has paid high stakes and a hefty price to excavate the Heavenly Sword Tomb and obtain the legacy of Sword God Nie Xiaofeng within it.

However.

As the Heavenly Sword Tomb was gradually developed, the demonic shadows suppressed beneath it also gradually lost control.

Initially, occasionally, one or two demonic shadows would escape, wreaking havoc.

Now.

A large number of demonic shadows have begun to move in all directions, slipping from their control. Just like the demonic shadow Xiao Yi and the others exterminated earlier, it was one of those that escaped from the Heavenly Sword Tomb, and as more of these shadows fled.

The demonic shadows suppressed beneath the Heavenly Sword Tomb have started to get out of control.

The Extreme Bliss Heavenly Palace has been forced to search everywhere for stronger beings capable of dealing with the demonic shadows, and Black Tiger knew that Old Wolf Head was one of those who had mastered this skill.

Because of this.

Black Tiger brought people through the blizzard to find Old Wolf Head, attempting to recruit him into the team dealing with the demonic shadows. After all, the Extreme Bliss Heavenly Palace’s excavation of the Heavenly Sword Tomb has reached a critical point, only needing one more step to succeed.

Bringing Old Wolf Head back would definitely be a major achievement.

However.

Old Wolf Head, who had been betrayed by Black Tiger when he joined the Extreme Bliss Heavenly Palace, harbored deep resentment and could not possibly join them now, coldly replied, “Go back; I can’t help you!”

“Heh heh, it’s not up to you…”

Black Tiger let out a sinister laugh.

Suddenly, beams of cold light shot in from outside the temple, each beam connecting with the others, forming a massive blue cage.

It tightly enveloped the entire dilapidated temple.

The blue rays shimmered and flickered as Black Tiger menacingly pressured, “Either come with me, or all of you will die…”
