Chapter 131: The Czar
Two icy cold auras suddenly appeared from behind Yang Yu Xi's sides, aiming straight for her vitals.
"Hum"
The Supreme Domain was activated at the first moment, and the air behind Yang Yu Xi was compressed instantly, with a sudden increase in pressure. The two cold lights behind him were slightly slowed down due to the obstruction.
Taking advantage of the precious time gained in the Supreme Domain, Yang Yu Xi's body leaned forward, and his right foot tapped lightly. His body quickly spun through the air, and the Thunderbolt Gun was somehow already grasped in his hand, firing out dozens of shots in rapid succession.
The dark lake bottom was deep and the purple gun muzzle was extremely dazzling. In an instant, it enveloped the two people behind Yang Yu Xi.
Everything happened in a flash, the low male voice had just faded away the previous second, and this second Yang Yuxi was already holding a gun and moving.
The two people behind Yang Yu Xi obviously did not expect him to move so quickly, originally thinking that the prey that was within their grasp suddenly launched a swift counterattack against the hunter.
The two men roared in anger, their killing moves appearing one after another. The sneak attack that was supposed to be a sure kill had been dismantled under Yang Yu Xi's dense and explosive gunfire. At this moment, they began a head-on confrontation with Yang Yu Xi.
Yang Yu Xi moved like lightning, every time he made a move, his gun was surrounded by electric arcs flashing around him. The Thunder Gun in Yang Yu Xi's hands at this moment burst forth with power to the extreme. Although the Thunder Gun was not as good as Nangong Cang Jie's Qing Lian, it was still a rare fourth-generation Yuan Qi instrument. With Yang Yu Xi's extremely strong foundation and the fourth-generation Yuan Qi instrument combined, the resulting power was something that the two people in front of him could not withstand.
Yang Yu Xi grew more courageous with each battle, and the Supreme Domain enveloped a circular area with a radius of five meters, making it impossible for the two to harm Yang Yu Xi. The outcome of this battle was decided from the moment Yang Yu Xi counterattacked.
Although the Supreme Domain is still a bit inadequate in the face of that terrible enemy, it's obviously not something that just any two people can contend with.
In just a few rounds, the two of them fell into an absolute disadvantage. Yang Yu Xi's gunfire became increasingly dense. For Yang Yu Xi, who had already mastered the "Thunderbolt Shooting Technique", these two were indeed somewhat weak.
"Honk honk!"
Two guns fired, and a flash of killing intent flickered in Yang Yu Xi's cold eyes. The Thunder Gun pierced through the chests of the two men in front, and Yang Yu Xi landed steadily behind them.
The two defeated men did not bleed, but instead turned into a pile of sand that fell from Yang Yu Xi's tightly furrowed brow, and in the blink of an eye, two piles of sand appeared in front of Yang Yu Xi.
"Not bad. To have such strength at the Three Heavens of Extreme Dust, his future is immeasurable." The male voice came out again, still unable to discern its direction.
Yang Yu Xi's body was still surrounded by electric arcs, making him look like a war god. He furrowed his brow and stared at the two women in the two crystal coffins in front of him.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you like you did." The male voice saw through Yang Yuxi's thoughts and transmitted the sound.
Upon hearing this, Yang Yu Xi let out a soft breath and coldly replied: "What do you want?"
The male voice had a hint of teasing: "You've finally found me, don't you want to know who I am?"
"I thought so just now, but I don't think so anymore." Yang Yu Xi replied.
"Why?"
Yang Yu Xi's voice was calm as he pointed at Zhou Yu Xiao and Huo Qi Ma, saying: "Because compared to knowing who you are, I'd rather rescue them."
"Hmm?" The male voice was laced with a hint of profundity, "Perhaps once you know who I am, you'll be able to rescue them."
Yang Yu Xi's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, he couldn't figure out the purpose of this guy in front of him, but judging from the current situation, it seemed that this person didn't have much malicious intent towards them, otherwise with his divine power, there was no need to waste time using two handfuls of sand.
"What do you want me to do?" Yang Yu Xi finally asked tentatively.
The reason he asked this was that Yang Yu Xi felt that the person who trapped Zhou Yu Xuan and Huo Qi Ma was using them to threaten him into doing things, while those two piles of sand were purely used to test his abilities, to see if he had the qualifications to do things for him.
Yang Yu Xi even felt that if he hadn't successfully defeated the two sand worms just now, he and Zhou Yu Xiao Huo Qi Ma would probably have been three corpses.
"Very clever." The man's voice was full of surprise and admiration.
"Then you say it." Yang Yu Xi was very concise, if this was indeed the other party's intention, then he had no way out, in any case, Zhou Yu Xiao and the others must be rescued.
"You're very decisive, I appreciate that," said the male voice.
"Hurry up and say what you want to do." Yang Yu Xi frowned, he didn't want to waste time.
"No rush." The male voice said slowly, noticing Yang Yu Xi's angry expression. He continued, "Don't worry, with me here, the two of them won't come to any harm. Once you've succeeded, I'll naturally let them go."
Yang Yu Xi thought for a moment, and his expression finally relaxed, saying in a low voice: "Alright. But before speaking, shouldn't you show your true face? Otherwise, wouldn't that be too insincere?"
"Haha, you're quite the talker, alright. I'll indulge you this once." As soon as the words fell, Yang Yuxi's line of sight was again covered by the endless yellow sand, and she couldn't open her eyes to see things clearly in front of her.
The yellow sand rotated at high speed in a whirlwind shape in front of Yang Yu Xi before slowly shrinking down to the size of a person.
"Hehe, it's been a long time since I've shown up with this face."
A voice sounded in front of Yang Yu Xi, at this time Yang Yu Xi found that he could already lock onto the sound, and he immediately opened his eyes.
In front of Yang Yu Xi, a middle-aged man with a slender build stood with his hands behind his back. Faintly visible on his left ring finger was a ring emitting a soft glow. He had a head of tawny long hair and wore earth-toned clothing. The air around him seemed to be filled with floating grains of yellow sand. At this moment, the man was smiling at Yang Yu Xi, his facial features not handsome but pleasant to look at, giving off an inexplicable sense of reliability.
Yang Yu Xi's eyes widened in surprise, she had never expected that the voice from before would belong to such a honest and kind-looking old man!
Don't judge people by their appearance!
"What exactly are you?"
A middle-aged man chuckled and walked out from behind two crystal coffins, his radiance gradually brightening. He smiled and said, "I've been dead for a long time, it's not important who I am anymore." His tone was calm, as if he were talking about something ordinary.
Yang Yu Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, and after a long time, there was still such power, so this person must not have been an unknown name when he was alive.
"Even if it's unimportant, I have to know." Yang Yu Xi said, looking at him.
The middle-aged man stared at Yang Yuxi for a moment, and finally opened his mouth slowly: "Alright then. Before I died, people called me 'Tsar', now I'm just a lingering consciousness."
"Shahua......" Yang Yu Xi muttered this name, people who can use the character "Huang" as a suffix are absolutely the best in the world.
"Alright then, Emperor, what do you want me to do?" Yang Yuxi raised her head and asked.
"Do you know what evil energy is?" The tsar's light and airy words made Yang Yu Xi's pupils suddenly constrict.
"Oh? It seems you know it. And yet there's still someone as young as you who knows it?" The Emperor's face showed a hint of surprise at Yang Yuxi's expression.
"Uh-huh." Yang Yu Xi nodded and said, "A year ago, I just fought it."
"Huh?" The Emperor's face changed, and he looked at Yang Yuxi with an incredulous expression, but all he saw on her face was solemnity. At this moment, the Emperor's mood also sank, and he asked in a low voice, "How do you feel about it?"
"It's terrifying." Yang Yu Xi thought for a moment before giving a calm reply, but in fact he didn't know what else to say besides "terrifying".
"That's right, it's really terrifying." The Tsar nodded heavily in agreement with Yang Yuxi's view, then he changed his tone, "However, no matter how terrifying it is, we can't be afraid of it!"
As soon as his voice fell, the entire lake bottom shook, and the invisible aura of the Tsar spread out, with his clothes fluttering.
Yang Yu Xi looked at Sha Huang with some shock, and suddenly felt that Sha Huang's image had become more majestic. He hated the evil ability to the bone, could it be...
"Eh, senior, how did you die?" Yang Yu Xi asked.
"Hundreds of years ago, I died in a war against an evil force that burst forth. " The Tsar said calmly, only his gleaming eyes revealing the discontent in his heart.
Yang Yu Xi's heart skipped a beat, it was indeed like this!
Yang Yu Xi's gaze towards Sha Huang had all of its previous hostility instantly dissipate, replaced by reverence.
"That... senior, you instructed me to do..." Knowing the identity of the tsar, Yang Yuxi's tone became much more respectful.
The Emperor regained his composure and turned to Yang Yuxi, saying: "Little guy, I think you have a great future ahead of you, and your heart is also very kind. I'd like to ask for your help with something."
"Seniors, please speak, but whatever juniors can do, I will not shirk. If it's a matter of fighting against evil and injustice, then I'll be even more fearless!" Yang Yu Xi clenched his fist, speaking with passion and fervor.
The Czar's eyes had a tone of admiration, his tawny hair fluttering lightly as he said: "With people like you in the world, there is still hope for salvation!"
The Czar paused for a moment and said: "But you are still too weak now, can't do much. I only ask you to help with one thing."
Yang Yu Xi perked up her ears and listened very carefully.
The Czar's eyes shone with a sharp light as he said, "Although I died in battle, I still sealed an evil and strange power's stronghold."
"Huh? Down in this desert?" Yang Yu Xi was shocked.
"Not bad, this stronghold is very important for the evil powers. If they erupt again, this must be the place they need to reoccupy in a short period of time. All my strength has been used to seal the power underground, if the evil powers attack, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it."
"What can I do?"
The Tsar looked at him and after a moment of contemplation said: "I need you to find something that will help me, but it may be too difficult."
Yang Yu Xi furrowed his brow and then looked at the Tsar's eyes with a probing gaze, saying: "Yu Qi?"
"Not bad!" The Emperor nodded heavily again, saying, "If you want to help me, it would be best if you had one of the Nine Great Primordial Treasures, but that's too difficult. Otherwise, at least five Second-Generation Primordial Treasures are needed."
"Five pieces of Second-Generation Yuanqi..." Yang Yu Xi fell into silence, he had seen Second-Generation Yuanqi before, Cold Cloud's Four Spirit Divine Blade was an excellent Second-Generation Yuanqi.
But now I need five...
Yang Yu Xi's eyebrows were furrowed very tightly.
