Chapter 559: The Identity of the Sackcloth-robed Monk

"Then go up and see where this kid comes from."

Hei Lie had a gloomy face and quickly chased after him.

"Be careful, this whole city on alert might be caused by this guy."

Chi reminded.

As soon as Hei Lie chased out, the man in black robe stopped, and his wagging tail remained motionless.

Hei Lie stopped suddenly and tried to dodge, but the other party suddenly turned around and stared at him with a pair of lizard-like vertical eyes, locking onto him.

Hei Lie's entire body was wrapped in a dark energy, revealing a pair of black pupils, and the two men looked into each other's eyes.

The black-robed man's lizard eyes shrank slightly, then widened, as if he had discovered something interesting.

"Not good! Let's go!"

Chi shouted fiercely.

He was aware of a deep sense of uneasiness.

Hei Lie also sensed that the man in front of him was extremely dangerous, and his figure flashed and turned into a black shadow, escaping to the back.

But the next second, his scalp went numb, and a hand patted his shoulder. It was that person who said, "You are not from the sea tribe."

"Take action!"

Almost at the same time, Chi shouted, "Trigger the restrictions in the city and escape in the chaos!"

He transformed into a red glow and merged into Black Crack's body, boosting his strength.

Heichai was not vague either. He slapped his arm with his backhand, and the entire arm changed from a shadow state to a solid crystal state, covered with irregular lines.

"what?"

The black-robed man was surprised, looking at the black crack, and said in a daze: "Black Abyss creature, evil body?"

He recognized Hei Lie's identity at once, which made Hei Lie and Chi feel scared. They did not dare to hold back at all and attacked with all their strength.

At the same time, several golden lights shot out and shot towards the man in black robe from different angles. They were the five Yu bees at the peak of the Jindan stage.

The man in black robe was not in a hurry. He gently stretched out his hand and clapped it forward, blocking the black crack with one palm. When he saw the Yu bees, he let out a cry of surprise again. He drew a circle in front of him and completely suppressed the five Yu bees. They stopped in the air with a "buzzing" sound, motionless.

Black Crack took the opportunity to flash back.

"The second intersection ahead, turn left at the second intersection!"

Chi shouted desperately.

He didn't know why he had to turn left at the second intersection, but he had a strong premonition that it would be safer to turn left.

The fight between the two just now was brief, but it had caused fluctuations in the restriction, and a large number of sea creatures flew over.

The man in black robe grabbed the five Yu bees into his palm with his backhand, then swung his lizard tail and chased after the black crack. The ground under his feet shrank to an inch, as if he had crossed the entire space in one step.

Hei Crack felt like he was suffocating. Ever since he was born in the Black Abyss, even when he met the people from West King Island or Xie Huan, he had never felt such a terrifying sense of oppression.

"Don't look back, go!"

Chi was also terrified and felt that he was about to die.

He turned into a ball of red light, gathering in front of Heichai's chest, ready to shoot out at any time.

As soon as Hei Lie was caught up, he would immediately abandon him and run away.

Black Crack rushed to the second intersection, turned around and pounced to the left.

The next moment, the man in black robe arrived at the intersection and looked to the left.

The black crack had disappeared, leaving only two huge fish-headed monsters standing there, with four bulging eyes looking over here.

The three of them looked at each other.

The black-robed man's pupils shrank sharply, and he stared directly at the fish-headed monster behind him, exclaiming, "Could it be a divine treasure?"

The fish-headed monster was none other than Xie Huan. Not long after coming out of the City Lord's Mansion, he sensed the danger of Hei Lie, so he rushed over and rescued Hei Lie in one go.

Boze was full of questions and didn't understand what was going on.

The black crack had appeared inexplicably before, and it also disappeared inexplicably now.

At this moment, when he heard the man in black robe shouting "Shenzhen", his whole body trembled, and his two fish eyes suddenly became transparent, but returned to normal in an instant.

Xie Huan stared at the other party coldly, feeling an indescribable sense of oppression. Moreover, the other party could guess that it was a divine treasure from his first reaction, and it was very likely that he was also the owner of a divine treasure.

As the thought came to mind, the feeling became stronger and stronger.

Moreover, Chi had already told him that this person was the monk in sackcloth clothes.

Without waiting for the monk to react, Xie Huan took a deep breath, used the Dragon Roar Technique, and shouted, "The human spy is here, come and catch him!"

The huge water waves turned into a dragon shape, rumbling out and spreading throughout the city in an instant.

The shock made him, Bozer, and the sackcloth-robed monk feel numb all over.

"You have your..."

The hemp-robed monk pointed at Xie Huan and cursed, then his body disappeared in the turbulent waves.

In an instant, a large number of sea warriors swarmed in.

The right fish eye of Xie Huan showed a blue-silver glow, and he immediately caught the trace of the monk in hemp clothes. He pointed in that direction and shouted, "That's where he went. Chase him!"

The sea creatures have a strong sense of water waves. No matter how powerful their escape techniques are, they will cause water waves to react. Once Xie Huan points out the direction, they will immediately chase after them.

"Could that person just now be the human slave that Butler Hou mentioned?"

Bozer asked as his face returned to normal.

"Maybe."

Xie Huan replied calmly.

But when he thought that the other party might also be the owner of a divine treasure, his heart was filled with waves.

"Is it one of the two very difficult ones mentioned by Butler Hou?"

"Maybe."

"That's another very tricky one..."

"Why are you looking at me? How would I know?"

"Oh, sorry."

Boze retracted his gaze, returned to his subordinates, and said hurriedly: "The city is in complete chaos now. Should we go and watch the fun, or..."

Before he could finish his words, he sensed several powerful auras coming in an instant from a distance, chasing in the direction of the hemp-robed monk.

Xie Huan clearly sensed that one of the auras was Hai Yin, and he said, "Go back and wait for news from the housekeeper."

The two of them swam slowly towards the rare goods shop.

After returning to the rare goods shop, Xie Huan summoned Black Crack in front of Boze.

There was some ripples in Boze's heart, but his expression remained normal.

He didn't know what Xie Huan meant by not hiding anything from him, so he could only ignore it.

"What's the gain?"

Xie Huan asked Hei Lie.

"We found nothing while searching for the energy source, but we discovered that a large number of workshops in this city seem to be operating on a large scale. A large number of evil elixirs and magic weapons are being produced in batches. There are no restrictions on those large-scale sacrificial techniques here, and they are extremely bloody and terrifying."

Hei Lie replied while half kneeling.

"It is indeed as this fellow Taoist said. Although the former Hell City was an evil city, it did not blatantly perform forbidden techniques or conduct large-scale sacrifices. It has changed in the past few years."

Bozer explained hurriedly, "In the past, Hell City was suppressed by the royal family, and the use of large-scale sacrifices and other magic was prohibited. But now not only is the suppression gone, but they are also secretly supporting it, and this support has even become semi-overt. In other words, it is the royal family that has fully activated Hell City to prepare for the war."

"Why didn't you pass on such important news?" Xie Huan turned around and asked with a cold gleam in his eyes.

Boze sensed his dissatisfaction and bowed hurriedly, saying, "The blockade has been severe in recent years. I am afraid of exposing my identity. Unless necessary, try to have as little contact with the market as possible."

"Let's forget about the past. From now on, you will do your best to help me find the dark wreckage, otherwise both you and I will be in danger."

Xie Huan said calmly.

"Yes, my lord!"

Bozer responded hastily.

He finally understood why Xie Huan did not hide Shen Zhen from him. It was because he wanted to bind him deeply so that both of them would suffer together.

He even had a feeling that the other party seemed to have discovered some of his secrets.

I can't explain why I have this feeling, but it's there.

Moreover, it was only at this moment that he realized the importance of this mission. The market actually sent an owner of a divine treasure here, and he was not afraid of losing it. This showed that the importance of the Dark Corpse was beyond imagination.

After Boze left, Xie Huan began to retreat and directly entered the Shenxuan space.

If that monk in hemp clothes is really the master of the divine treasure, he will definitely come in to find him.

Sure enough, a few hours later, a faint sensation appeared in the Shenxuan space.

The other party also discovered him at once.

The two of them sensed each other in this way, neither showing up nor speaking, as if waiting for the other to speak.

"Who are you?"

Finally, the person on the other end couldn't help it and asked, but his voice was obviously processed.

"Let me guess, you're going to Haidu?"

Xie Huan did not answer, but asked back.

"Interesting, you're trying to trick me right away. Do you think I'm stupid?"

The other side sneered.

"My sacred treasure is the Nine Heavens Pearl."

Xie Huan said word by word.

The man on the other side was stunned for a long while, then suddenly laughed out loud: "Haha, if you really want to communicate with me, you'd better be sincere. Ridiculous, ridiculous. I'll tell you the truth. I know the owner of the Nine Heavens Pearl."

"Oh, but Xie Huan?"

Xie Huan asked directly.

The other person's laughter stopped abruptly, and after a pause, he asked, "Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, but I already know who you are, Fellow Daoist Long Xiu."

Xie Huan said with a smile.

The other party fell silent, obviously shocked, and became extremely passive. After a while, he said, "I won't pretend anymore. Since you came to see me, you didn't just want to confirm my identity, did you?"

The other party's voice returned to normal, and it was indeed Long Xiu.

"Just to confirm your identity."

Xie Huan said: "Now that the Hell City is sealed, even the teleportation arrays of several nearby cities are blocked. How are you going to get to Haidu? It will take you half a year to swim there."

"Sir, there is no need to chat like this. Since you know my identity, you should also know that this city defense can't stop me at all. I come and go freely. If there is no benefit value, then log off and go away."

Long Xiu said bluntly.

Suddenly he froze and screamed, "I know, you are Xie Huan!"

"How did you guess it?"

Xie Huan didn't comment or deny, and asked with a faint smile.

"Well, you kid, you have been lying to me since the beginning! You said your magic treasure is the Nine Heavens Pearl, and you said it has been broken, turned into a fruit, and lost the magic treasure space. I have always believed it, so when I saw you collecting people today, I didn't expect you to be Xie Huan. Moreover, your fish-headed monster costume really looks like a sea creature. Even I was deceived by you!"

Long Xiu said angrily.

"Then why did you guess that I was Xie Huan?"

"You're the only one who can confirm my identity with just a few words. I've only had a deep conversation with you. And I feel uncomfortable. Whenever I talk to you, I don't get any useful information. Instead, you keep digging for information from me. This feeling is extremely uncomfortable. It's exactly the same as when I talked to you before. Damn it!"

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Long Xiu is indeed smart."

Only then did Xie Huan admit himself.

"Good boy, where are you now? Come out quickly so I can chop you a few times and vent my anger!"

Long Xiu said angrily.

"I didn't offend you, fellow Taoist."

"Heh, you're the country bumpkin I punched on the boat, right? Then you shot an arrow at me, exposing my identity, which put the whole city on alert and ruined my plans. Also, the people from Shadow Market beat me and cut off my brother. Although I don't have direct evidence, it was most likely you who ordered it!"

"My friend, you hit me, and it's proven that someone from Shadow Market cut off your brother. What can you say without evidence?"

"Let's not talk about this anymore. What are you doing in Hell City?"

After Long Xiu learned of Xie Huan's identity, he felt relieved, extremely relaxed, and started to talk about business.

"Oh, I told you last time that I wanted to go to Haidu. You invited me to go earlier, but when I really went, you said your house was on fire and you had to go back to put it out. When I arrived in Haidu, you were there too. This sincerity really touched me."

Xie Huan said with a sneer.

"I came here right after putting out the fire. I didn't expect to meet you by chance. Haha."

Long Xiu laughed awkwardly a few times.

He had invited Xie Huan before because they were both masters of divine treasures. Although they had never met each other, he believed that Xie Huan must be at least a great master in the Spirit Transformation Realm. Later, when he learned that Xie Huan was just a Jindan minion, he immediately lost interest in meeting him in person and disappeared with an excuse.

"Xie has joined the Sea Clan and become a member of the Sea Clan. I am planning to stay here."

"Bah! Is it fun to talk nonsense?"

"Yeah, is it interesting?"

Xie Huan asked back sarcastically.

"Well, I was wrong about what happened before. I apologize to you. I hope you don't mind. Now we are deep in the sea tribe. We are alone and it is easy to be defeated. If we complement each other's resources and unite, our chances of winning will be much greater."

"So your goal is the ancient ruins of Haidu?"

Xie Huan remembered that in the early days, Long Xiu wanted to take him to Haidu to explore ancient ruins, saying that he had important clues on him.

"Yes, I was going to go a long time ago, wasn't I delayed by the matter of the Wuji Realm? When you mentioned the Wuji Realm, I thought it was nonsense, but I didn't expect you to really make it happen and cause chaos in the world. Tsk tsk, you are really amazing. What's more terrifying is that you are only at the Jindan stage. After several years, are you still at the Jindan stage now?"

Long Xiu said with emotion.

"You won't play with me after you've formed your elixir?"

"No, I'm just asking. You can do things everywhere with your Jindan and still be alive until now. You are a hundred times stronger than many Huashen. Why don't you take me out to play? I'll call you big brother."

"The city of Hell has been sealed off. How are you going to get to Haidu?"

Xie Huan asked.

"I was at a loss, but now that I've met you, I don't have to worry or be anxious anymore. You're sure to have a solution."

Long Xiu began to lie down with his arms around his thighs.

"There is a way. For example, you can turn yourself in and let the sea tribe chop you up. Then the guards and teleportation array will be automatically released."

"Haha, Brother Xie Huan, do you think the sea tribe wants to kill me more, or you more?"

Long Xiu smiled fearlessly.
