Chapter 657 Compassion
"Perhaps the first two times left a bad impression on Mr. Murong. We just need to make it clear."
Lady Gai picked up Huan Du Luo Lan and said, "I will make him recognize the princess."
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly chased after Huang Shiren, almost turning into a shadow, and disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye.
He quickly caught up with Huang Shiren, and actually caught up with Huang Shiren's speed and kept pace with him.
Huan Du Luo Lan looked at Murong Ji with his eyes closed, and smiled what she thought was a very kind smile. She looked up at Murong Ji and said, "Let's make peace. Can you accept me as your disciple?"
Murong Ji shook his body, pretending not to hear, bowed slightly to Lady Gai, then patted Huang Shiren on the back, signaling him to leave quickly.
Huang Shiren's pair of ox eyes, as big as copper bells, glanced at Huan Du Luolan. The next moment, he spread his ox hooves and left quickly with an extremely strange pace.
In the blink of an eye, the man and the cow disappeared from sight.
Gai Taijun and Huan Du Luolan stared at their figures in a daze. They still didn't understand how those four ox hooves could walk with such a slow pace.
I really deserve a beating!
Lu Zu Step can relax the meridians of the whole body and quickly adjust to the best state. It is an extremely practical method for fighting enemies and traveling.
This is Murong Ji's trump card.
If combined with sword energy, its power is unpredictable.
Murong Ji breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to accept any apprentices, he accepted Tu Shan Rongrong only because of pressure from the Third Young Master, and accepted Mu Mie because of personal relationships, as for this yellow cow, was there any need to ask?
As for Huan Du Luolan, she had nothing to do with the Poison Emperor, let alone any emotional ties between them. Why should she raise a daughter for him?
When he turned his head, Murong Ji's pupils shrank and he almost lost his temper.
It was unknown when Huan Du Luolan caught up with Huang Shiren, and she held on to his tail tightly, almost flying like a kite.
She looked at Murong Ji with tearful eyes. Her pitiful look, coupled with her innocent look, deeply touched Murong Ji's girlish heart.
Gai Taijun followed closely behind, protecting Huan Du Luolan to prevent her from falling.
Murong Ji exhaled deeply, closed his eyes and didn't look at her. [This old panda really has some skills! After all, he is a great demon king! There are very few in the world. ]
Murong Ji waved his hand casually, and a force directly fell on Huan Du Luolan's hand.
There was a sudden pain, "Ah!" Huan Du Luolan subconsciously loosened her hand, and was thrown backwards and fell into Gai Taijun's arms.
Gai Taijun was a little worried and checked hurriedly. Seeing that Huan Du Luolan was not injured, she once again mobilized all her magical power and caught up.
Murong Ji opened his eyes slightly and looked, but was speechless for a moment.
Gai Taijun's speed has increased significantly compared to before. Even if Huang Shiren runs at full speed, he can hardly get rid of her.
"Is this... a natural magical power? This shouldn't be possible? I haven't heard that pandas are speed-type monsters?" Murong Ji was a little puzzled. It would be fine if it was any other avian monster.
The innate supernatural powers are there, and the techniques are almost the same. What is being competed is the depth of cultivation.
But this old panda... is completely beyond the speed of a bear! For a moment, Murong Ji was a little confused.
In just a short while, Huan Du Luolan was picked up by Lady Gai again.
When Huan Du Luo Lan saw Murong Ji looking over, she instantly became excited and said expectantly, "Are you going to take me as your apprentice? Tell me what you want, I can find anything! I can also give you my toys."
Murong Ji rolled his eyes and said calmly: "Don't think about it. My mother asked me to play with idiots to lower my IQ."
Huan Du Luo Lan's tone paused, and she said angrily, "I am the smartest child in the South Country! How could I be a fool? It's your blessing to accept me as your apprentice!"
Lady Gai thought to herself, "It's going to be bad!" She whispered in Huan Du Luo Lan's ear, "Princess!"
"Ha! Ha! Ha!" Murong Ji laughed loudly, "I can't afford such a blessing."
Then, with a wave of his hand, a wind barrier appeared out of thin air, directly stopping the two of them, and their speed dropped sharply.
Lady Gai looked solemn as she placed Huan Du Luo Lan on the ground. "Princess, wait a moment. I will break this wind screen!"
As soon as the words fell, Gai Taijun broke through the almost transparent film in an instant.
Lady Gai picked up Huan Du Luolan again, took a step forward, and let Huan Du Luolan grab Huang Shiren's tail again.
Huang Shiren's speed was not slow. With one step, he could cover a distance of nearly a thousand meters. With his current level of cultivation, few people or monsters could match his pace.
Lady Gai was risking her life, chasing after Huang Shiren and not falling behind at all.
"Zheng!"
The sound of piano music came one after another, and in an instant, it was as if time was reversed, everything was gradually slowing down, and Huang Shiren's speed slowly decreased.
Murong Ji opened his eyes and looked around. Nothing around him had changed, but... it was a little weird.
The sound of a piano came, and he was a little stunned. This kind of sonic poison skill is quite something.
"Manipulate time?"
Murong Ji murmured something, and then denied it. If time was really so easy to control, he would not have plotted against Xiao Tianhao and Li Muchen.
After careful analysis, he found that it was a neurotoxin that could affect Murong Ji! It was different from Huan Du Qing Tian's sonic poison. This poison could be transmitted into the nerves when heard by the ears.
Then, Murong Ji looked in the direction of the sound and saw two of the Five Poison Guardians, Poison Master and his wife, Poison Mother, on a hillside not far away.
The Poison Lady was constantly transferring her demonic power to the Poison Master, who was desperately trying to play the piano in his hand in order to delay Murong Ji for a moment.
Murong Ji casually clapped his hands, and his true energy flowed into Huang Shiren's body, helping him detoxify.
The next moment, he frowned slightly and looked at Huang Shiren with some displeasure. This guy was not poisoned at all thanks to the Wuding Flying Ring! Then why did he slow down? !
Murong Ji didn't say anything and let Huang Shiren slow down.
Lady Gai brought Huan Du Luolan before Murong Ji again, and tears welled up in the little girl's big eyes.
"Just accept me as your disciple. I apologize for my previous rudeness!" As soon as Huan Du Luolan opened his mouth, a lot of anger filled his mouth.
I don’t know if it was the wind that blew me, but tears started to flow down my face.
Murong Ji sighed and asked, "Why do you insist on taking me as your master? The poison techniques I know are not as complete as those you have in Nanguo."
Huan Du Luo Lan choked up and said, "Daddy said that after I finish learning from you, I will be able to see mom."
The corner of Murong Ji's mouth twitched. What did Huan Du Qingtian mean by this? He was trying to pass the buck!
He said helplessly, "Even if you learn from me, you may not be able to see your mother. Go back."
As soon as Murong Ji finished speaking, he didn't even look at the two old men on the distant mountain top. He just pointed his finger and two swords shot out.
The speed is extremely fast and it arrives in a flash.
"puff!"
"puff!"
It penetrated the bodies of the two men directly, and with such a huge force, it sent them flying backwards. After they fell down the mountain, it was unknown whether they were alive or dead.
Just as she was about to remind Huang Shiren to leave quickly, Huan Du Luolan hugged Murong Ji's thighs and cried without saying anything.
Murong Ji's face darkened and he tapped Huan Du Luolan on the forehead with a finger.
There was a "bang" sound.
A bump appeared instantly, and Huan Du Luolan cried even louder but refused to let go.
Murong Ji: "..."
Rubbing his forehead with a headache, Murong Ji looked at Huan Du Luolan, raised his eyebrows, patted Huang Shiren on the back helplessly, and signaled him to stop.
Huang Shiren had been waiting for him for a long time. He stopped and turned around to look at the huge bull head.
Murong Ji wanted to pick up Huan Du Luo Lan, but the little girl hugged his thighs and refused to let go, crying heartbrokenly. She kept saying, "I want my mother! I want my mother!"
"Don't cry." Murong Ji pulled the corner of his mouth and was silent for a moment. After Huan Du Luolan's crying became much quieter, he said, "I'm in the South Country and I won't leave for some time."
"I will give you a test. If you can answer it to my satisfaction, I will accept you as my apprentice. How about that, Princess?"
Huan Du Luo Lan wiped away her tears and said with a sob: "Then you set the questions."
The childish voice was choked and hoarse, but it made people feel sad.
Murong Ji thought for a moment, then said, "You are practicing poison skills. I will ask you a question about poison skills. Humans practice spiritual power, and the demons practice demonic power. Why do you, the Southern Country, practice poison skills? Why do you practice poison skills?"
Seeing that Huan Du Luo Lan was about to give the answer, Murong Ji waved his hand to stop her and said solemnly, "Think carefully before you answer. The answer I want is the most essential answer, not your casual perfunctory one."
As soon as he finished speaking, Murong Ji pointed his finger at the numb tendons of Huan Du Luolan, and while she was in pain and numbness, he lifted her up with all his strength, flipped her in the air, and she fell into Lady Gai's arms.
"Let's go." Murong Ji said softly.
Huang Shiren then walked leisurely out of the mountain.
Huan Du Luo Lan thought about it with sobs in her eyes, remembered Murong Ji's words, wiped away her tears, looked at Murong Ji who was gradually disappearing, and turned away.
After walking a long way, Murong Ji opened his eyes again and asked in a deep voice, "You want me to accept that Southern Princess?"
Huang Shiren's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't dare to hide it. He then said sullenly, "Yes, sir. I've become a little soft-hearted. I can't bear to see a child that old crying so sadly. If possible... so I..."
Murong Ji nodded, said nothing, and asked no more questions.
Huang Shiren felt somewhat uneasy and did not dare to say anything more.
Having compassion is not a bad thing. For the demon race, compassion is even more rare.
The demon race has always adapted to the law of the jungle where the strong are respected. How can they have any sympathy for the weak? Survival of the fittest and worship of the strong are their only rules.
The powerful demon tribes can do whatever they want to the weaker demon tribes, and they don’t care about right or wrong.
