Deng ChanYu instantly transformed into the form of the immortal Huaxia, her snake tail sweeping a large wave on the sea, as she forcefully struck the sea surface with her hands.
A blood-red sea swallow as long as a hundred zhang suddenly appeared in the water, its wings flapping, causing an infinite amount of turbid sea water to rush towards the sky with a trilling sound. The entire ShenAo world shook for a moment.
A large amount of filth was cleared, and she finally saw the things in the darkness, which was too familiar.
This is a willow tree towering tens of zhang in height, with deep roots and lush leaves, hollow in the center. It seemed to sense Deng Chanyu's gaze, enveloped by mist from all around, clearly intending to conceal the appearance of the hollow willow once more.
As Deng Chanyu raised the celestial ruler, preparing to give her full strength, the hollow willow quickly retracted the mist and begged for mercy: "Kind Daoist friend, please refrain from action. I am the hollow willow, not Yang Mei. I have also been heavily affected by that scoundrel Yang Mei. It was only with the help of Daoist friend and our peerless Daoist friend who is an elemental elder, that I was able to leave roots in this world in advance through their arrangements. Only in this way did I manage to escape from its control."
Feeling that she might not believe her, the hollow willow continued to explain: "Yang Mei was once the space demon of chaos. After being severely injured by Pan Gu the Great Creator, I saw that he still had a heart for the Dao. That's why I lent him a hand, hoping to practice the Dao together with him. Who knew that scoundrel would take over my body and then go on to do countless absurd things."
Deng Chanyu: "???"
Why does it smell like a woman wronged? How many rich women did Yang Mei deceive on his path of the Dao?
She asked softly to the celestial ruler, "Do you believe what the hollow willow said?"
Perhaps because they had similar experiences, the celestial ruler was somewhat hesitant: "What does it matter if I believe it or not?"
Deng Chanyu said, "The kaiming Gongde we are looking for should all be in its hands. If we believe it, we can negotiate with it to see if we can give us the kaiming Gongde, but if not, we will take it by force."
Celestial Ruler: (Silence)
"Now the ways of the Honghuang people are so wild! In our early years, they were still quite reasonable!"
Deng Chanyu also felt the disbelief from the celestial ruler. She neither confirmed nor denied it. Instead, she said that Longhun Old Ascendant lowered the baseline of the entire Honghuang to this extent, and Zhentini took this style to new heights. She can only say she is imitating it at best.
The hollow willow, unaware of their conversation, continued to beg for sympathy: "In fact, the true enemy of my friend is the space demon Yang Mei, not me. Over these years, I have not been idle. To counter Yang Mei's path of space magic, I have specially refined a precious treasure in the central area of the ShenAo world. If you have some leisure time, why not take a look inside?"
Countless tendrils slowly moved, and in less than half a column of incense, a deeper tunnel appeared in the depths of the sea. From a distance, one could see that a precious gas was emanating from inside, and there were countless rays of light as if there were truly precious treasures inside.
Deng Chanyu: "?"
Deng Chanyu: "This hollow willow must be out of date, telling such a clumsy lie. In the current Honghuang world, even a three-year-old child can't be fooled by it."
She exclaimed excitedly, "Is your treasure really capable of dealing with Yang Mei?"
"Yes, the humble one dare not guarantee it, but there's a good chance of it, about nine out of ten."
