Chapter 168
The old man was very angry, but he was still very angry.
In the past, Lu Tongxing was worried that Xu Ming might suffer after entering the dark forest-like society from school.
If he saw this scene, he would sigh that he was worried in vain.
Why should he worry?
What should he worry about is other beast masters.
Xu Ming is not a fledgling little fat sheep, but a tiger entering the forest, and all beasts submit.
There is no use in submitting, just eat it!
Dabai threw Wang Dafu on Qianhuan's back and ignored him, eating the bamboo shoot snacks that Xu Ming fed him.
Although this old man was seriously injured, he was a sixth-level beast master after all, and his physical fitness was not to be underestimated.
In terms of physical strength alone, he might be as good as a young man like Xu Ming.
If he is not killed directly, he will not die. He will be alive and kicking after a period of recuperation.
The premise is that Xu Ming gives him this opportunity.
A bottle of cold water was poured on him, and this guy woke up.
"You..."
Wang Dafu looked at Xu Ming with eyes as if he had seen a ghost.
What's more terrifying is that when he turned around, he saw the monarch-level iron-eating beast, as if it could sit on him to death at any time.
Therefore, he did not dare to act rashly.
"From the Heavenly Demon Palace? It doesn't look like it."
"I'm not from the Heavenly Demon Palace, I'm just here for the reward."
Wang Dafu quickly denied it.
"Where is the bounty?"
"From the black market. If I can capture you alive, I won't have to worry about my life for the rest of my life."
"Oh? How much am I worth now?"
"Five hundred million spirit stones."
"Only five hundred million? It's from the black market."
Xu Ming was speechless. The price offered to him by the Ten Thousand Races Alliance was more than ten times higher.
These days, the role Xu Ming played in the secret realm of disaster has gradually emerged.
The skeleton related to the abyss, according to a mysterious person, can not only dissolve the effect of the abyss's demonic energy, but also produce some kind of mutation, so it is so awesome!
In short, when in doubt, leave it to mutation.
Logically speaking, the Heavenly Demon Palace should be the one who wants to kill Xu Ming the most at this time.
However, although they also issued a bounty mission, they all have to be captured alive, and they must be intact, without any major damage.
The bounty amount directly reached several billion.
Xu Ming was a little suspicious whether the black market mission this guy received was subcontracted through layers of subcontracting.
"Yes, if I had known you were so powerful, I would not have dared to accept this mission, let alone 500 million, let alone 5 billion.
I admit defeat, what do you want me to let you go?"
Obviously, Wang Dafu also felt that he was too impulsive and regarded Xu Ming as an ordinary fifth-level.
Even if he guessed that Xu Ming might challenge him across levels, he did not expect that he would be subdued in one encounter.
If he really saw Xu Ming's 5 billion bounty, he probably wouldn't dare to have this idea.
5 billion, even a seventh-level or even eighth-level beastmaster might be tempted.
Who wouldn't be happy to make a lot of extra money?
If Xu Ming wasn't too slippery, there would probably be a long queue to catch him now.
Although Xu Ming was not afraid of those, he found it troublesome.
"Let you go?"
Xu Ming touched his chin and thought.
Killing him directly would not bring any benefit, and even the two king-level beasts were taken back.
In front of Zhuang You and the others, he couldn't force him to summon the beasts for him to kill.
After all, this guy is also a figure in Biluo City.
A sixth-level beastmaster is already a backbone force.
"...It's not impossible, but there is a condition."
"You say."
Wang Dafu saw that he could save his life, so he asked hurriedly.
Even if the other party killed him here, no one would pursue it.
"Since you attract the Styx so much, if the Styx appears within an hour, you can live, otherwise, I will kill you."
Wang Dafu: ? ? ?
What is this condition, completely leaving it to fate?
"There is no pattern to this. Besides, it has happened three times already. As the saying goes, things never happen more than three times..."
"I don't care about that. You also know that things never happen more than three times. Why do you insist on chasing me for the fourth time?
Have you ever thought that every time you chase me, you are one step closer to death. Maybe this is why you attract the Styx?"
Xu Ming analyzed casually.
Thinking about it carefully, it really makes sense.
"..."
Wang Dafu really wanted to slap himself a few times. The Styx saved him three times, but he didn't cherish it!
"Or, you can try to fight back. Try it, maybe your king-level beast can save
You. "
Xu Ming suggested with a smile.
Using cruel means to force the other party to summon the beast to let him kill, this may be a bit inhumane.
But if the other party fights desperately and seeks death, it is none of his business.
The reason why the other party can live until now is because he was defeated too early and was subdued by Xu Ming before he could make a move.
If he dares to resist a little bit, Xu Ming will definitely make him regret it a hundred times more than he does now!
"Then, wait a minute..."
Wang Dafu looked at Xu Ming's devilish smile and did not have the courage to summon the beast for the time being.
Until the last second, he still kept a glimmer of hope.
Next, Xu Ming simply stopped moving forward and stopped where he was and waited. Wait.
Anyway, whether you move forward or wait, you may encounter the Styx.
With this 'Styx magnet', it doesn't matter whether you move forward or not.
Zhuang Yuan and Sang Miao also looked around with interest, waiting for the Styx to appear at any time.
They had been to the Yellow Spring Secret Realm several times, but this was the first time they saw someone looking for the Styx in this way.
They were relieved that Xu Ming did not kill anyone directly.
Leaving the other person alive would be useful whether dealing with the Demon Snake Kingdom or the monsters.
-----------------
Half an hour later
A thick fog suddenly surged in front of them, accompanied by a wailing sound of "woohoo".
"The Styx appeared, appeared!"
Wang Dafu shouted.
He had been here for decades, but this was the first time he was so excited about encountering the Styx.
There was no way, this was not the Styx, this was his life!
"It actually works! "
Zhuang You and Sang Miao did not expect that this seemingly unreliable method would actually work.
Xu Ming asked Qian Huan to fly forward, through the fog, and a black "big lake" appeared in front of Xu Ming.
At a glance, it was difficult to see the other side, as if it was endless.
In the black water, many gray-white ghosts could be vaguely seen floating.
It seemed like a body that was soaked and turned white.
Some of those corpses looked numb, and some were still wailing.
Every wailing was accompanied by some gray mist floating out of the mouths of those ghosts and dissipated into this space.
The Styx was silent, just flowing quietly.
"Xu Ming, don't go forward anymore. All flying is prohibited on the Styx, otherwise you will fall down."
Sang Miao reminded.
"Well, so no one has crossed the Styx?"
"Uh, there shouldn't be."
"Then how can we be sure that this is a river? It's not impossible that it's a dark lake or a dark sea. "
Xu Ming felt that a river with a beginning and an end could come and go without a trace. Even the direction could change at will, just like a loach, which was a bit outrageous.
"..."
Xu Ming's imagination was novel, and the other party was speechless.
