Chapter 1397 The Identity of the High Priest

In Tianyong City, the black unicorn is forbidden.

Duguxiu and the high priest walked to the forbidden area.

The black unicorn's forbidden place is an ancient stone tomb.

To enter the stone tomb, one must pass through nine stone gates, each of which has a special magic restriction.

As long as there is a mistake, the mechanism will be activated.

In the forbidden area are enshrined tablets of black unicorn patriarchs. There is an ancient magic circle arranged here. Duguxiu came here once under the leadership of Hei Yao only when he recognized his ancestors and returned to his clan.

After hearing the news of Hei Linlin's death, Hei Yao was furious. He led an army of 100,000 black unicorns and besieged Luochuan City.

Hei Yao originally planned to take Dugu Xiu as a striker, but Dugu Xiu said that at this time Tianyong City's defense is empty and needs to be guarded.

Hei Yao only thought that Duguxiu was unwilling to do anything to that woman Yun Sheng, cursed "useless things," and left with the army.

As soon as Hei Yao left, the high priest and Duguxiu entered the forbidden area.

Duguxiu didn't know what the high priest was going to do in the forbidden area, but what surprised him was that those ancient magic circles, even black Yao had to spend a lot of effort to control the magic circles, the high priest was actually very proficient in controlling them. One by one closed.

"The last door." The high priest stood in front of the stone door, looking at the last stone door.

The high priest closed the last magic circle, the stone door made a crackling sound, and the heavy stone door slowly moved away.

"Do you know what is inside this last stone gate?" the high priest suddenly asked.

"The Qilin King's empty tomb left from ancient times." Duguxiu heard Hei Yao mention it.

The black unicorn cemetery is to commemorate the empty tomb of the black unicorn king Sheli who died in battle on the Wuji continent back then. The real body of the black unicorn king is still left in the eight wilderness continent.

"Hehe, is that so? It turns out that later generations say that." The high priest let out a weird laugh.

Duguxiu looked suspiciously at the high priest.

"After following for so long, come out." Just as the high priest and Duguxiu were about to enter the stone gate, the high priest stopped suddenly.

Yushang and the big witch doctor came out.

Duguxiu was very surprised when he saw the two of them.

"Who are you? Why did you break into the black unicorn king's forbidden area?" After meeting Ye Beiming in Tianhu Palace, Yushang tried her best to find clues to prove that Ye Beiming was the black unicorn. The reincarnation of Qilin King Yexiu.

Finally, she remembered that there might be a clue in the Qilin forbidden area.

"Hu Yushang, I didn't expect you to live again, and you are still so stupid." The high priest snorted coldly.

Yushang's expression became weird.

"It's you! Are you the shadow of Ye Xiu?"

"Shadow? Hehehe, yes, for so many years, in the eyes of the world, I am just a shadow, with no name and no identity, I can't think of anyone remembering me." The high priest smiled sinisterly, and he uncovered the priestly robes.

When they saw the high priest under the priest's robe, Duguxiu, Yushang and the big witch doctor couldn't help but exclaimed.

It was a person... It's just that his face was riddled with holes, and his appearance was ruined by others.

"As the shadow of Yexiu, why did he die but you didn't?" Yushang looked at the high priest in disbelief.

The so-called shadow is Ye Xiu's closest shadow guard. He has followed Ye Xiu almost since he was born, never leaving him.

Under certain circumstances, the shadow will also serve as Ye Xiu's stand-in.

After being reminded by Yushang, everyone also felt that the high priest was somewhat similar to Yexiu in terms of body shape and voice.

"If it wasn't for Fox Smoke, how could the patriarch die!" When the high priest mentioned Fox Smoke, hatred arose.

The relationship between the high priest and Ye Xiu is very hidden, even Hu Yan and Hu Yushang are the last to know about it.

"In the black unicorn tribe, there is a legend that if there are twins, it means bad luck. The qi is the elder brother and the lin is the younger brother. The qi is an auspicious beast, but the lin is a disaster beast. The elder brother will bring hope, but the younger brother will It will bring disaster and disease." The high priest fell into deep thought, and he also brought everyone present to a certain night thousands of years ago.

That night, the patriarch's wife gave birth to a pair of identical twins.

According to the ancient teaching of the Qilin clan, the birth of twins will bring bad luck to the clan.

In order to keep this secret, the patriarch's wife killed the witch doctor who delivered the baby that night, and even her maid was killed on the spot.

The patriarch's wife originally wanted to kill the younger brother of the twins, but when the patriarch's wife was about to do it, Ye Xiu, the elder brother, kept crying. Fearing that others would notice, the patriarch's wife could only destroy the face of the twin brother, Quietly abandoned outside the house of an unsuspecting couple in the clan.

The patriarch's wife originally thought that the child would disappear forever like this.

But she ignored it. After all, that child is the same as Ye Xiu, and is the blood of the Black Qilin King.

Even in an ordinary poor family, he gradually showed his talent, but unlike Ye Xiu, his talent in magic was even better.

But because of his looks, he has lived in humility.

Maybe it was fate, when the two brothers were nine years old, Yexiu went out hunting and met his younger brother, who was later the shadow, by chance, and the two became very good friends.

Even more, Ye Xiu didn't mind his ugly appearance, so he kept his Wuming's younger brother by his side as his personal bodyguard.

But when Yexiu returned to the Black Kylin tribe with Wuming's younger brother, the patriarch's wife immediately recognized that this so-called bodyguard was the twin brother he had discarded back then.

In order to avoid exposure, the patriarch's wife arrested him.

Only then did the high priest know his identity.

The patriarch's wife also discovered the magical talent in the high priest, and Ye Xiu was unwilling to let this confidant who was like his own brother leave. In desperation, the patriarch's wife threatened the lives of his adoptive parents and forced him to die for the rest of his life. You can't tell Yexiu the truth.

Although the high priest hated the patriarch's wife to the core, he had a deep friendship with his elder brother, Yexiu.

He finally promised the patriarch's wife that he would never betray Ye Xiu for the rest of his life.

The high priest has been following Ye Xiu all the time, and the two have grown from a teenager to a majestic man. Watching the unparalleled Ye Xiu gradually become the number one master among the beast tribes in the wilderness, although the high priest occasionally envies him, Da That was because he was still happy for his elder brother from the bottom of his heart.

Together, the two laid down piece after piece of territory for the prosperity of the Black Kylin tribe.

"All this changed because of Huyan's appearance. Yexiu, he betrayed the friendship between our brothers. For that woman, he even forgot the vow we made to unify the Qilin tribe at the beginning." Falling into memories The high priest's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were full of resentment.
