Chapter 210 Encounter
Chapter 210 Encounter
Along the way, Xu Yuan and Xu Yan sat on the broom that the dragon ball had transformed into. Xu Yuan sat in the front, and Xu Yan sat in the back. Xu Yan put his arms around Xu Yuan's waist and lay on Xu Yuan's back.
It was naturally Xu Yan's idea to turn the dragon ball into a broom. After all, Xu Yuan had no memory of this.
Xu Yan felt that Xu Yuan was doing well now. He would do whatever she was told to do, as long as she didn't feel uncomfortable.
Xu Yan, lying on Xu Yuan's back, looked very comfortable and thought to himself: It's so sweet and soft, so comfortable.
On the other side, Chen Kongyuan and Xue Li also chatted for a long time along the way.
They met in a teahouse two years ago. When Chen Kongyuan first saw Xue Li, it reminded him of his memories from long ago, which surprised him a little. He suspected that Xue Li was a time traveler.
Chen Kongyuan has traveled to this world for more than seven hundred years. Through observation over the years, he has also discovered that there are other travelers besides him.
However, most of the time travelers are not very powerful and cannot make much splash, but there are exceptions, like Chen Kongyuan, who is doing very well now.
Chen Kongyuan also got to know several time travelers among the high-ranking officials of the kingdom, and they all knew each other's identities.
Chen Kongyuan also felt that Xu Yuan and Xiao Yuan were time travelers, but he did not care too much about it. After all, their outward strength was not up to his standards.
When Chen Kongyuan met Xue Li for the first time, he found that his aura was steady and profound, like a towering mountain that seemed to cover the sky. Knowing that he was no ordinary person, he wanted to make friends with him.
Both of them had certain insights into tea, so they initially discussed the tea ceremony. Later, after getting to know each other, they became friends and knew each other's relationship.
When Xue Li first learned from Chen Kongyuan that there were other time travelers, he was very surprised. He thought he was an exception, but he didn't expect there were so many in this world.
After being shocked, Xue Li immediately thought of Hu Tao, wondering if she was also a time traveler.
However, he did not dwell too much on this issue. After all, a time traveler was just a slightly special identity in this world.
Xue Li mentioned this to Hu Tao later. Hu Tao was very surprised at the time, but soon calmed down, accepted the matter, and told Xue Li that she was also a time traveler.
After the identities were revealed, the two of them lived their lives as they should. After all, whether there was a time traveler or not, it would not change the fact that "she was his hall master and he was his guest official."
Back to the present, Chen Kongyuan and Xue Li are flying while discussing the war between gods and demons more than a hundred years ago, that is, the war in which the gods and celestial beings assisted the various races in the mortal realm to defeat the demons.
"Brother Chen, is the Demon King really that powerful?" Xue Li frowned, looked at Chen Kongyuan and asked.
"Yes, there is a gap between the gods. The Demon King is obviously the top one. The gods of the Celestial Clan and the God Clan can only wait to be slaughtered in front of him. In that battle, corpses were scattered everywhere, and the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas were all in ruins. Dark clouds covered the universe, and the sky was filled with blood and the gods' tears." Chen Kongyuan said solemnly.
Only those who have experienced the battle between gods and demons can truly realize how powerful the Demon King is. Chen Kongyuan is a survivor of that battle, so he knows very well what kind of monster the Demon King is.
"If the Demon King was so powerful, how did you get rid of him?" Xue Li asked.
Chen Kongyuan shook his head and sighed, "Alas, unfortunately, I don't know either. With my strength, I am not qualified to participate in that battle. I only know that a ray of dawn broke through the darkness and took the Demon King away from this world. I don't know what happened after that. About a day later, news came that the Demon King was sealed."
Xue Li crossed his arms and said, "So the Demon King is still alive."
Chen Kongyuan unfolded his folding fan, fanning it continuously, nodded and said, "Yes, the Demon King is still alive. Every fifty years or so, the various tribes in the Mortal Realm will send people to reinforce the seal. The specific method is to select five Saint-level strongmen, bring the five artifacts given by the Celestial Clan and the God Clan to reinforce the seal."
Hearing this, Xue Li was a little confused and asked, "Hmm? The God Clan and the Celestial Clan don't care about the seal?"
Chen Kongyuan replied: "They didn't really ignore it. I heard they sent some people to guard the seal to prevent the people from the Demon Realm from causing damage."
Xue Li was still confused and said, "It's a bit hard to understand their behavior. The Demon Realm is the base camp of the demons. They let the saints take the artifacts to reinforce the seal. Aren't they afraid that the artifacts will be snatched away by the demons?"
Chen Kongyuan said: "I don't know about this either. But they came back successfully every time. But after they came back, the artifacts would leave them, and they were no longer qualified to use them. So the people who went to seal the artifacts twice before were different people."
After listening to this, Xue Li couldn't help but complain: "What a weird rule."
After hearing what Xue Li said, Chen Kongyuan laughed and said, "Haha, it's quite weird. It gives me the feeling of choosing a hero in another world."
"Now that you mention it, it does look like it. Brother Chen, you've been here for so long, have you ever seen a divine weapon?" Xue Li said.
Chen Kongyuan thought for a moment and said, "I have seen one. It is a sword with destructive power. It is now in the palace of the kingdom. Brother Xue Li, are you interested in becoming a 'hero'? It will take another 20 to 30 years."
Xue Li nodded slightly and said, "I am indeed interested in this matter. But I prefer my current life and have no intention of becoming a part of it."
"Is that so? What a pity." Chen Kongyuan said with some regret.
The two chatted for a long time and then talked about some other topics.
Since everyone present had a magic level of King or above, they arrived at the forest above the ancient ruins at three o'clock in the afternoon.
The ancient ruins are underground and the entrance is a cave.
When the group just arrived at the cave, they found a girl wearing a black windbreaker and black-framed glasses standing in front of the cave.
The girl's hair was light green and fell to her waist.
Seeing this, Barus walked towards the girl with black-framed glasses and said, "Miss, this cave is very dangerous. Please leave here."
Upon hearing this, the girl with black-framed glasses turned around, showing the group a face that was 70% similar to Xu Yuan, but looked much more mature than Xu Yuan.
The girl with black-framed glasses smiled at Barus and said, "Well, thank you for the reminder. But my destination is right here."
The girl with black-framed glasses was none other than Xiao Yuan.
As for how Xiao Yuan found this place, it was because Xiao Yuan's map function was updated in real time, and all the ruins in this world, whether discovered or not, were displayed on her map.
The ruins in this cave suddenly appeared on Xiaoyuan's map a month ago.
Faced with this situation, Xiao Yuan was naturally interested, but she did not take any action until Xu Yuan woke up. After Xu Yuan woke up, she did not come here to check the situation because of her amnesia and dementia.
This time, based on the movements of Xu Yuan and Xu Yan, Xiao Yuan guessed that the final destination was here, so he arrived here in advance to wait for their arrival.
This was a two-pronged approach. I could accompany Xu Yuan and check out the ruins that suddenly appeared.
