Chapter 484 Beg For Death

Xu Han's expression changed when he saw the ten foot thick lightning python howling towards him. Without even thinking, he helped the unconscious Guang Lingui retreat to the side.

In the blink of an eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the monster king kneeling on one knee where the lightning python was bombarding.

His naked upper body was covered in scorched black wounds, and purple demon blood flowed down the hundreds of wounds all over his body. But even so, the Demon Lord raised his head high and stared at the roaring lightning python.

He was like a king, even if he died, he still had to maintain his dignity.

Xu Han's heart was inexplicably touched.

He was naturally not a sentimental person. He just remembered that he had brought Ye Hongjian to the Exquisite Dragon Pavilion back then. His sword seed had just been planted, but the lightning tribulation that filled the sky was howling towards him. He couldn't help but feel a strange feeling of sympathy or sorrow for the Demon Lord.

However, this feeling was limited to feeling.

He wasn't stupid enough to resist such a huge bolt of lightning for the sake of someone who had just taken his life.

Ding!

However, just because Xu Han didn't save her, it didn't mean that someone could just stand by and watch.

A crisp sound of clear golden stones could be heard. At that time, an incomparably fine but incomparably dazzling golden streak of light pierced through the sky with lightning and thunder, cutting through the dark clouds. The haze that pervaded the summit of Dragon Hidden Mountain.

That streak of light was extremely fast. Compared to it, the thunderbolt that descended from the sky and the strange expression on Xu Han's face seemed to be like a still image. It was so slow that it was almost stagnant.

The golden light came to the Demon Lord's head and stopped between the Demon Lord and Heavenly Lightning the moment they came into contact.

At this moment, Xu Han could clearly see that the golden light was actually a…

Golden copper.

"Master Wei!" When he saw the appearance of the copper plate, Xu Han subconsciously let out a cry of alarm.

As soon as this voice fell, the copper plate trembled slightly. A golden light overflowed from the copper plate, enveloping the dying Demon Lord.

Rumble!

At this time, heavenly thunder had already descended.

Along with a loud explosion, the copper plate and the golden light emanating from its body trembled violently.

Clang!

A crisp sound rang out after a breath. The copper plate suddenly shattered. The golden light it stimulated naturally could no longer wrap around the Demon Sovereign's body and immediately dispersed. However, the Heavenly Lightning seemed to have exhausted all of its strength. At this moment, it abruptly stopped and did not land on the Demon Sovereign's body.

"This?" Yao Jun's expression changed. Compared to this Yao Jun, he was clearly more confused about what had happened.

Right at the entrance of his puzzled stall, a stooped figure appeared in front of him.

It was an old man.

The old man was dressed in a white robe and carrying a wooden box on his back.

The Demon Lord, who had been sleeping in the Demon Suppressing Tower for thousands of years, naturally did not recognize this old man. Therefore, the Demon Lord's heart was filled with confusion regarding his rescue.

So he asked with a deep brow, "Who are you?"

The old man tilted his head and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face, "Friend."

As he said this, he suddenly stretched out a hand and pressed it on top of the Monster Lord's head. The Monster Lord, who was already seriously injured, did not even have time to react and was restrained by the old man.

"This is all because of this old man. Great Lord has worked hard. Leave it to this old man." The old man didn't care if the other party could understand his words. After saying this, a white light shone in his hand. At this moment, the Demon Lord turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the wooden box behind the old man.

At this moment, the nine Kunlun Tribulations once again surged forward, but they did not stop the old man from doing what he had done before. Instead, they stared at the old man.

Xu Han's expression changed slightly. He could smell something unusual from the state of the Kunlun Tribulation.

If these Kunlun Tribulations were really powerful existences that Xu Han could not understand and came to kill the Demon Lord, he should not have watched Master Wei finish all of this and let the Demon Lord escape helplessly. It was fine for them to turn a blind eye to this, but Xu Han could clearly feel that ever since Master Wei appeared, the nine Kunlun Tribulations had clearly locked onto Master Wei's body.

Could it be that their target was Master Wei from the very beginning?

Such a guess inevitably appeared in Xu Han's mind, and his gaze towards the old man also became worried at that time.

The old man seemed to have sensed Xu Han's gaze as well. At that time, he turned his head to look at the youth, and a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.

"Xiao Han, remember the story I told you a long time ago?" The old man asked in a calm tone. He didn't have the slightest bit of self-awareness that a great calamity was imminent. Instead, it was more like he was chatting with someone.

Xu Han frowned. He did not think that this was a good time to discuss this matter, but the smile on the old man's face allowed him to read out some determination. So he thought for a moment and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart. He replied, "Sir is talking about the old man who wanted to travel ten thousand kilometers, but was trapped in the great calamity of the Immortals?"

It was a story that Master Wei told Xu Han a long time ago.

And relying on the story, Xu Han suddenly came to an epiphany. He broke through the Nether Opening Realm and arrived at the Heavenly Hunt Realm. Naturally, he remembered this deeply.

"Yes." The old man nodded, "Of course it's a good thing to be alive."

"You can travel ten thousand miles. You can read ten thousand books."

"You can eat what you want, listen to or tell stories you like."

"You can meet a lot of people. They are good or bad, you are happy or disgusted."

"But you have to do this. To be alive is to be alive."

"But some people only live for the sake of being alive. That's not enough. They want everyone to live like them."

"But there are some people who don't like this. He wants to give it a try and use a better way to live."

"He has lived for a thousand years in this world for this. There have been some mistakes and some changes in his plans, but he still has to give it a try."

"Because he has been living for this for the past thousand years. If he doesn't go now, then these thousand years will be meaningless like those people."

At this point, the old man paused. He looked at Xu Han, whose gaze was somewhat empty, and asked, "Do you understand?"

Xu Han was stunned. There seemed to be something surging in the depths of his eyes, but he forcefully suppressed this surge. He laughed, and he laughed incomparably brilliantly.

He used up all of his strength and nodded with difficulty and straightforwardness, "I understand."

The old man also laughed. He patted the youth on the shoulder and walked to the center of the nine Kunlun Tribulations. He walked to the vortex formed by the dark clouds.

He raised his head and looked at the horizon, his gaze clear like a youth.

His white robes surged and his long beard stirred.

He laughed loudly and said, "Dao Sect Wei Changming, come and beg for death!"
