Chapter 2126: Passing the Buck Quietly
Zheng Qingcang naturally didn't want to leave.
After all, you have to recognize that human favors will eventually run out.
If possible, he would rather stay with Ling Tian, gain more favor, and hold on to this thigh.
If you are lucky, you might be able to get in touch with Qi Zhenhuan.
But the powerful auras that had appeared repeatedly before made him feel extremely uneasy.
If he stayed here any longer, he was afraid he would die.
"Should we tell Ling Tian?" Zheng Lixian suddenly asked a very stupid question.
Zheng Qingcang looked at him coldly as if he were an idiot.
Zheng Lixian was stunned for a moment, then realized belatedly that there was no need for them to remind Ling Tian.
If I don’t have this intuition, how could Qi Zhenhuan like me?
Zheng Lixian rubbed his face and wanted to slap himself twice. He prided himself on being smart, but he did too many stupid things today.
Fortunately, Zheng Qingcang did not educate him any further, but just picked him up again.
The grandfather and grandson quickly headed towards the thousand-mile territory of the monster.
They had to get out of the cage as soon as possible.
"Brother Ling, do you still remember the pressure that appeared intermittently several times before? You have been to the bottom of the abyss, did you see anything unusual?"
Unlike the grandfather and grandson, Fang Qing's target is not the stubborn ones.
He followed the powerful aura all the way here just to find out the current situation of that being.
Since Ling Tian came up from the bottom of the abyss, maybe he knows something?
Ling Tian felt a little embarrassed when he heard that.
The first time the pressure appeared, it had nothing to do with him, it was Yan Chengyu who did it.
But afterwards it was like crazy, sometimes it would stop and sometimes it would stop.
He can't get away with it.
"Well, I have no idea about this matter, but I guess it may be related to Yan Chengyu."
Ling Tian coughed dryly and passed the buck calmly.
Anyway, if it weren’t for Yan Chengyu, he wouldn’t even be able to find the altar, let alone know how to unseal the Monster King.
It's not unfair to shift the blame.
"Yan Chengyu?"
Fang Qing was stunned. He hadn't thought about the other party. "What does this have to do with him?"
Ling Tian pretended to recall: "When I went to the bottom of the abyss, I saw Yan Chengyu fiddling with something..."
"What is that?" Fang Qing asked to get to the bottom of it.
Ling Tian looked at him straight without saying anything.
Do you really have to find out so much?
He suddenly began to doubt whether Fang Qing had ulterior motives in asking this.
Fang Qing saw this and immediately realized that he had been rude. He quickly apologized and explained, "Brother Ling, you don't know that this matter may lead to a great disaster."
"What do you mean?" Ling Tian asked.
Qi Zhenhuan died a long time ago. If he hadn't died, he would definitely have preferred to get in touch with the Qi family.
Now I can only choose the Fang family as a second choice.
But if Fang Qing is not sincere, he will just treat it as a free ride.
There is no need to contact us again after we go to Yongzhou City.
Fang Qing fell silent, obviously thinking.
This matter is of great importance. It's not that he doesn't trust Ling Tian, but the more people know about it, the more likely it is that trouble will arise.
However, after thinking for a long time, he chose to tell the truth.
"The powerful pressure that appeared several times before came from a terrifying existence. It is said that... it might be a demon beast."
"That being was suppressed in a cage."
“Once they escape, not only the cage, but also Yongzhou City and Langyue City will face a catastrophe.”
This is true.
The monster called the Beast King is at the Heaven-shaking level.
Although it is not the peak of the Shaking Heaven Realm, it is still very useful for Yongzhou City and Langyue City, whose highest realm is only the Spirit Transformation Realm.
It is still an invincible existence.
"What else?" Ling Tian asked.
Fang Qing shook his head, then looked at the new graves and smiled bitterly, "That's all I know, otherwise I wouldn't have brought my brothers here to investigate the situation."
"pity……"
The situation was not investigated.
Instead, it cost the lives of the brothers.
He didn't blame Ling Tian.
Although the root cause lies with Ling Tian, the man was killed by Zheng Qingcang.
He was not familiar with Ling Tian, so there was no reason for the other party to help him. He was already very grateful that he could save his life.
Ling Tian patted his shoulder, wanting to comfort him, but opened his mouth and swallowed the words back.
The words "my condolences" seemed inappropriate for him to say.
So he changed the subject and said, "Don't worry, the monster won't be able to come out in a short time."
"Um……"
Fang Qing nodded subconsciously, then realized something was wrong, raised his head quickly, stared at Ling Tian, "Brother Ling, what did you just say?"
Ling Tian repeated it and said, "Yan Chengyu is already dead. No matter what he wanted to do, he has already failed..."
At this point, he paused.
"But whether he has any companions or not, I do not know."
Of course, it's useless.
The stubborn soil is in his hands, and no one can release the monster king unless he is willing.
But it’s not a bad idea to let Fang Qing check it out.
It’s better to have fewer crazy people like Yan Chengyu.
Fang Qing frowned and said solemnly: "I will find a way to find out."
Ling Tian nodded, naturally skipped this topic, and asked: "How much do you know about the beastman?"
"Not much." Fang Qing shook his head, "But there is someone who should know clearly."
"Who?"
"Courtesy photo."
This was the first time Ling Tian heard of this name.
"The monster beasts attacking the city is related to the beast tamers..."
Fang Qing hesitated for a moment, "It's also related to us. We have reached a cooperation with the beastmen. They helped us trap the people in the three cities to prevent them from disrupting our plan to obtain the stubborn soil."
"We promised to help them release a powerful monster."
Although he used the word "powerful", he did not mention his concerns about that terrifying existence. Obviously, the two are not the same.
"Li Zhao is the person in charge of communicating with the beastmen."
"Where is he?" Ling Tian asked.
Fang Qing shook his head. "I'm not sure. Each of us is responsible for different tasks and areas. But I guess it might be in the Beast Territory."
"The Beast Leader?"
Ling Tian raised his eyebrows, that was exactly the place where he appeared when he first arrived here.
It seems that we need to focus on investigating the Beast Territory.
He noted this and asked, "So what are you responsible for?"
Fang Qing was silent for a moment, "Kill people... If anyone leaves the city and luckily passes through the group of monsters besieging the city, we will take action."
Ling Tian felt something was wrong, "Then why didn't anyone stop me when I came out?"
"You came out during the monster siege?"
Fang Qing looked at Ling Tian in surprise. He had tried his best to overestimate this guy, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated him.
"Sure enough, it's not easy to climb out of the abyss."
He couldn't help but mutter.
Ling Tian didn't quite hear, "What did you say?"
"Nothing." Fang Qing came back to his senses and said, "I am in charge of Shanyin City. I don't know the situation in Wuan City."
After saying this, he suddenly realized something.
Isn’t Ling Tian Qi Zhenhuan’s man?
Even though he was born in a cage, since he followed Qi Zhenhuan, it was impossible for Qi Zhenhuan, the person in charge, not to tell him about the Wantu plan.
The key points cannot be mentioned, but it doesn’t matter if the staffing is mentioned.
The caged man is too weak and has no chance of competing with them. Even if Ling Tian turns against them, it will have no impact.
What's more, there were monsters attacking the city, so they had no chance to cause trouble.
But why does he seem to know nothing about it?
