Chapter 3871: What a Pity...
But in an instant, Ye Wuque's brows were wrinkled just right, and his face showed a mixture of helplessness, unwillingness, and fear!
"Master, if I tell you that you are the one hundredth person who asked me this question along the way, do you believe it?"
"Really?"
At the end of the hall, the voice of the Dark Hall Master was still gentle, his eyes staring at Ye Wuque, and he smiled faintly.
"So what's your answer?"
Hearing this, Ye Wuque spread his hands immediately, and the complex expression on his face became more intense, with a trace of fear: "Before, I really wanted it to be there, but now I think about it, I can continue to live well, maybe it is the greatest reward, after all, a man is innocent but guilty of holding a treasure..."
At this moment, Ye Wuque looked directly at the Dark Hall Master at the end of the hall, without any evasion in his eyes, but only a deep feeling and fear.
"An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure... Indeed, I don't know how many lives have been killed by this principle..."
"So, has your peerless opportunity really been taken away?"
The voice of the Dark Palace Lord was always accompanied by a faint smile.
"Yes. If I hadn't been lucky, the five legendary realms who came together to kill me would have probably crushed me to death. I was lucky and escaped with my life."
"If there really was a peerless opportunity, if you were me, would you join the Dark Palace like me?"
Ye Wuque's expression was calm and his tone was also calm.
The hall became quiet, and the Dark Palace Lord did not speak again.
"What you said does make some sense..."
"But wouldn't it be clearer if this hall master took a look at it himself..."
After a long time, the Dark Palace Lord's voice sounded again, and then...
Swish! !
The whole hall suddenly lit up with a blazing light, as if two scorching suns appeared out of nowhere and projected from the end of the hall! !
Those were the eyes of the Lord of the Dark Palace, like two beams of light piercing the sky, directly covering Ye Wuque!
In an instant!
Ye Wuque felt that he could not move at all!
Then he felt as if he had been seen through from head to toe! !
This feeling was very uncomfortable!
But Ye Wuque did not resist, but accepted it calmly, as if he was not worried at all.
The beam of light swept back and forth three times, and after ten breaths, Ye Wuque suddenly felt his whole body relax and regain his freedom. The feeling of being seen through also disappeared, and the originally lit hall became dim again.
The hall returned to its previous quiet and dim, and the Lord of the Dark Palace retracted his gaze.
Ye Wuque still stood still, his face calm, his eyes looking straight at the Lord of the Dark Palace at the end of the hall. He could feel that the Lord of the Dark Palace's eyes were still focused on him.
The atmosphere was still tense and solidified! !
Until a certain moment...
"It seems that you are not lying..."
When the voice of the Dark Palace Lord sounded again, Ye Wuque's expression remained unchanged, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He put away the escape world breaking talisman that appeared in the palm of his right hand.
He could feel that the Dark Palace Lord was telling the truth, and this was the other party's hall, and it was under the dark abyss. There were only him and the other party. If the other party wanted to attack or was about to attack, there was no need to talk nonsense with him.
"As long as it is a living being, there will be greed."
"Ye Wuque, this hall master is also a living being, so naturally I will have a strong interest in the unique opportunity of Tianqing Disaster. This hall master will not hide this from you."
"So, if I don't check and identify it myself, this hall master's heart will still be restless and difficult to calm down."
"As the hall master of the Dark Hall, and you have made great contributions to my Dark Hall, this hall master has just given you the position of elder. Doing this is too mean no matter how you look at it..."
"If it gets out, how will the world view my Dark Hall and this hall master?"
"So, Ye Wuque, this hall master will compensate you once."
The Dark Hall Master said this, and at the same time, he seemed to stretch out his finger and lightly tapped Ye Wuque.
Swoosh! !
I saw a ray of light shooting over, directly covering the elder token still held in Ye Wuque's hand, flashing a few times and then slowly disappearing.
"This hall master has left a clone power in your elder token. It can help you once when you need it, but only once."
"This is a compensation from this hall master, Ye Wuque, what do you think?"
The words of the Dark Hall Master echoed in the quiet hall, with a hint of warmth.
A touch of surprise instantly emerged on Ye Wuque's face, and he quickly grasped the elder token and said excitedly: "Thank you, Lord Hall Master! With this clone power of Lord Hall Master, it is equivalent to having an extra life! Such an opportunity, such a generous gift, I dare not imagine!"
Ye Wuque was obviously very happy at this moment.
"Leave, as I said, the elder seat represents not only identity and status, but also responsibilities and obligations, but this hall master believes that you can do well..."
When the Dark Hall Master's words sounded again, Ye Wuque naturally understood, bowed to the Dark Hall Master, and turned to leave again.
This time, Ye Wuque's back slowly disappeared outside the door.
The hall became quiet again.
At the end, the tall and majestic figure of the Lord of the Dark Palace stood still, like a god sitting in the years, exuding an unpredictable aura.
In the distance, it seemed that a pair of deep and unfathomable eyes could be seen flashing.
"He didn't lie..."
"What a pity... Alas..."
A sigh sounded slowly, and disappeared in an instant, and the whole hall returned to dead silence.
At the same time!
Outside the hall, Ye Wuque walked out of the passage and slowly stepped into the darkness again. He looked up at the exit of the dark abyss, and the surprise and excitement on his face had disappeared completely.
Looking down at the elder token in his hand, a sneer flashed in the depths of Ye Wuque's bright eyes.
A clone power?
Can you make a move once?
It sounds good. After all, the strength of the Lord of the Dark Palace is unpredictable, which is equivalent to having one more trump card!
But!
How could Ye Wuque not see that this seemed to be a means of appeasement by the Lord of the Dark Palace, but in fact, this clone power was equivalent to a shackle, a warning!
Once he really took out something related to the so-called "unparalleled opportunity", it might touch the perception of the Lord of the Dark Palace.
Moreover, the last sentence of the Lord of the Dark Palace was also a vague reminder that he was now the elder seat of the Dark Palace, and naturally he had to carry the elder token with him.
Holding the elder token, the sneer in Ye Wuque's eyes became stronger.
Can a clone power shackle himself?
Haha.
Just find a legitimate reason to use it and it's done!
When he thought of this, Ye Wuque's mind suddenly emerged with the pseudo-king spirit who had decisively slipped away from the Tianxia Auction House in Chaori Domain, and a faint smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Originally, he had no sense of belonging to the Dark Palace, and at most they just used each other. Now that the Lord of the Dark Palace has done this, there is naturally nothing to say.
Besides, Ye Wuque never planned to stay in the Dark Hall headquarters for a long time.
With a flip of his right hand, Ye Wuque put the elder token into a brand new storage ring, kicked his right foot, and suddenly soared into the sky, disappearing at the bottom of the dark abyss in an instant.
Now that the elder seat he wanted was in hand, his plan could finally begin legitimately!
