In the past, Yang Hong was willing to be the King of Men because he wanted to protect Great Wei. But now that Zhou Shu was back, it didn't matter if he was the King of Men.
Moreover, he didn't think that Yao Qing could take away the King of Men Seal.
The King of Men Seal was not an ordinary divine weapon. It was impossible to snatch it by force. Otherwise, the Grotto-Heaven Masters wouldn't have sat back and watched Yang Hong become the King of Men.
Besides, if a mere Yao Qing wanted to snatch it away, not to mention Zhou Shu, even the few of them could easily suppress Yao Qing.
"Wait," Zhou Shu suddenly said. "Yao Qing, what do you want this King of Men Seal for?"
He looked at Yao Qing, and an invisible force seemed to spread from his body.
Looking at Zhou Shu's gaze, for some reason, Yao Qing didn't have any intention of rejecting him.
He really wanted to tell Zhou Shu everything in his heart.
"I want the King of Men Seal to save someone," Yao Qing said seriously.
If someone else had asked him, he might not have said anything.
But facing Zhou Shu, he couldn't hide anything at all.
He felt that Zhou Shu was the person he trusted the most in the world.
Before Zhou Shu could ask, Yao Qing continued, "I have to use the King of Men Seal in order to save my mother.
"I can promise you that as long as my mother is saved and the King of Men Seal is still around, I'll give it to you after that."
"Your mother? Yao Wenxin?" Zhou Shu asked. Is Yao Wenxin still alive? Is she the reincarnation of the Qingqiu King?
"Where is your mother? Why is the King of Men Seal needed to save her? If I'm not wrong, only the King of Men can unleash the power of the King of Men Seal."
Although he had never seen the King of Men Seal, his forging skills were at the pinnacle. Just from the name, he could roughly guess what kind of weapon the King of Men Seal was.
If the King of Men Seal didn't acknowledge someone, then this person wouldn't be able to borrow the providence of the human race, and it would be useless to them. It couldn't even compare to ordinary weapons.
Only in the hands of those who were acknowledged could the King of Men Seal become a peerless divine weapon with unbelievable power.
Yao Qing was a human-demon. It was impossible for him to obtain the approval of the King of Men Seal.
Otherwise, why didn't Ji Lutian give him the King of Men Seal?
"I don't need to activate the King of Men Seal," Yao Qing said.
He explained, "I just need to bring it over, and the King of Men Seal will work on its own.
"My mother is trapped in a place. According to the method my father left behind, I have to bring the King of Men Seal over to save her."
"In that case, why didn't you come to Yang Hong in the past?" Zhou Shu asked. "Why didn't your father go himself?"
"I don't know." Yao Qing shook their heads. "I only found out about this not long ago. I always thought that my mother was already dead.
"Not long ago, I opened a brocade pouch my father left behind and found out about all this."
Yao Qing explained everything clearly.
Yang Hong and the others clicked their tongues in wonder. Yao Qing has just been acting aloof. Now that His Highness asked, he explained everything clearly.
Indeed, His Highness is more influential than the heavens.
"The brocade pouch left behind by Ji Lutian?" Zhou Shu pondered. This is interesting.
If Yao Wenxin is the reincarnation of the Qingqiu King, with Ji Lutian's deep love, why didn't he save her himself?
"Yao Qing, since it's to save your mother, there's no need for you to take away the King of Men Seal. Yang Hong and I will accompany you," Zhou Shu said.
"Yang Hong, do you have time?"I think you should take a look at
"Of course." Yang Hong couldn't ask for more than to be able to follow Zhou Shu.
He didn't forget that every time he followed Zhou Shu, although there were dangers, he would gain a lot.
Although Yang Hong was the King of Men now, the King of Men didn't have any surplus food at home.
Of course, he wouldn't let go of anything that could benefit him.
"Your Highness, are we leaving now?" Yang Hong was even more proactive than Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu looked at Yao Qing and asked, "Yao Qing, how far is the place where your mother is trapped from here?"
"Thousands of kilometers," Yao Qing said.
"Then, let's make a trip first."
Zhou Shu pondered for a moment and glanced at Yin Wuyou and Lu Wenshuang. They had reunited after a long time. Although he wanted to stay with them for a while, this matter was urgent. Saving people was like putting out a fire.
Moreover, he also wanted to figure out what Ji Lutian was up to.
He definitely didn't believe that Ji Lutian could live from ancient times to the present, but now, he had disappeared.
…
Just as Zhou Shu and the other two left the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven to save Yao Wenxin, a massacre was taking place a thousand kilometers away from the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
"Tang Tang, hand it over, and I can leave your corpse intact." A middle-aged man laughed arrogantly as blood dripped from the saber in his hand.
On the surface of the Endless Sea, numerous corpses were floating.
These were all members of the Tang family of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
Zhou Shu had killed Tang Lan and captured Tang Qianluo alive. As for the other members of the Tang family, he had only driven them out of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven and didn't kill them.
But after the Tang family left the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, they were ambushed.
After the series of battles, they suffered heavy casualties, and there were not many people left alive.
Tang Tang, who had interacted with Zhou Shu back then, stared at the people facing him and growled, "Don't even think about it!"
He hated Zhou Shu. If not for Zhou Shu, his ancestor wouldn't have died, and the Tang family of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven wouldn't have fallen to such a state.
But he hated these people in front of him even more!
The Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven was Zhou Shu's enemy. Since they were enemies, it was normal for the other party to do anything.
Winner takes all. The Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven was inferior to them, so there was nothing to say.
But the people in front of them were all from the Grotto-Heavens and had called them brothers in the past!
The Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven had never owed them anything.
These fellows who used to call them brothers had now drawn their weapons and slaughtered the people of the Tang family wantonly. How could Tang Tang not hate them?
His hatred for these people had already exceeded his hatred for Zhou Shu. He even felt that Zhou Shu wasn't that hateful!
"Let me tell you. Even if the Tang family of my Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven dies, I will definitely not let you succeed! Zhou Shu is right. You're a group of shameless villains!"
"You really don't know what's good for you." The man opposite sneered. "Tang Lan is already dead, and so is Tang Qianluo. Your Tang family is already finished. Hand over Tang Lan's intrinsic divine weapon, and we might be able to avenge your Tang family in the future.
"Don't tell me you still have fantasies that your Tang family can make a comeback?"
The smile on the man's face was very cruel as he looked at Tang Tang. "Stop dreaming. Since I've already made a move, I won't give you any chance. Your only choice is to hand over the item and die a quick death."
The man's aura erupted as he walked toward Tang Tang. "If you continue to be stubborn, my methods will make you regret being a human. At that time, you will still have to hand over the item. Why bother?"
