Chapter 1163 Human Greed
The dull knock on the door sounded again.
Princess Longji glanced at me and motioned for me to open the door.
I nodded, came to the door, and opened the door.
The visitor was none other than the old Taoist who came to this inn with us.
Before I could speak, the old Taoist priest grabbed my arm and said, "Quick! Get out of here with me! We can't stay here any longer!"
The old Taoist priest looked very anxious, with a look of fear in his eyes.
I shook his hand away and asked, "Why?"
The old Taoist priest looked around and whispered in my ear: "Someone wants our lives!"
"who?"
I asked.
The old Taoist priest looked a little anxious.
"There's no time to explain. Please leave with me quickly."
As he said that, he reached out and grabbed my arm again.
I ducked sideways, my brows furrowed into a frown, and I stared at the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest was still chattering.
"No time! No time! When someone comes from Yaochi, we won't be able to leave!"
I looked back at Princess Longji, only to find that Princess Longji had disappeared.
It seems to be hidden.
I want to see what this old Taoist priest is up to today.
I nodded and followed the old Taoist priest.
At this moment, the white conch shell in the pocket suddenly emitted a faint white light.
Immediately afterwards, Princess Wencheng's voice sounded in my ears.
"This old man is very malicious, you have to be careful."
I said to Princess Wencheng, "I know."
I followed the old Taoist priest and walked downstairs. When I reached the stairs, a black figure quietly appeared from behind me.
My heart trembled, and the corner of my mouth raised a sneer.
Suddenly!
The dark wind howled behind me, and I turned around suddenly to see a pale ghost claw attacking my chest.
I flipped my right hand, and Jingxiao was held in my hand. I raised my sword and slashed forward at an extremely fast speed!
I just heard a puff, and the pale ghost claw was cut off by me. In an instant, blood splattered everywhere!
I looked at the old lady coldly.
If I didn't have the slightest precaution, I might really have fallen into the trap of these two guys.
At the moment when I cut off the old lady's hand, a golden light flashed from behind, illuminating the dark corridor.
I turned around and saw the old Taoist priest clasping the formula with his hands and muttering something in his mouth.
When he saw me turning around, he shouted loudly!
As soon as he finished speaking, the old Taoist priest threw the talisman in his hand towards me.
Thunder Talisman?
The talisman burst out with dazzling light in the air, and the next moment, countless thunder and lightning came towards me.
I activated the pure lotus mark on the palm of my left hand, and holy white light enveloped me.
The turbulent thunder and lightning struck the white light and did not cause any substantial damage to me.
I opened the Nine Eyes Heaven Realm and disappeared instantly. When I reappeared, I was already directly in front of the two old Taoist priests.
I looked at them coldly and asked, "What do you want to do?"
The corners of the old Taoist priest's mouth raised, revealing a cruel smile.
"What? Of course I will kill you! The Queen Mother of the West said that as long as we can kill you! We will be able to ascend and become real immortals!"
When he said this, the old Taoist priest's eyes flashed with greed.
In response, I sighed helplessly.
When meeting two people for the first time, they give people a very upright feeling.
However, through an illusory promise, you can make it lose its original intention.
It seems...greed can indeed make people worse than pigs or dogs.
"Getting ascended? Are you sure I didn't make you puppets?"
