Chapter 77 Reunion with Duan De
The group returned to their original appearances. Shi Feng concealed his double pupils, so as long as he didn't use them to attack, ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell anything was wrong.
Shi Feng was surrounded by a hazy blue light. Hei Huang also took out a bell from his ear, carried Xiao Nannan on his back, and protected Shi Feng in front of him. Ye Fan summoned the Fire Furnace to cover their retreat.
Since it's a cemetery, not a forbidden zone for life, as long as you're careful and use an imperial weapon, you should be able to ensure your safety and get out safely.
"There are many vicious restrictions here, probably to prevent tomb raiders."
Shi Feng's double pupils swept across the area, revealing all restrictions as clearly as the lines on his palm.
Ye Fan also took the opportunity to refine his Heavenly Eye, but his Heavenly Eye was not yet fully developed and was still lacking.
The two took the opportunity to verify the source of the book. Shi Feng lamented, "It's a pity that Master Yuan doesn't rob tombs. He only mentioned the terrain of the tombs, but he didn't understand the various possible malevolent restrictions."
Shi Feng could see the restrictions, but he had never seen many of them before and did not understand their function.
He remembered an old friend, Duan De, who was an expert in tomb raiding.
It's safe to say that no one in the entire universe knows more about tomb raiding than him.
If he were here, he could sweep the entire gravesite clean, leaving not a single grain of rice untouched.
Something's not right.
Shi Feng stopped in his tracks, and Hei Huang raised the bell high:
"What? Has some filthy thing come back to life?"
"Some of the restrictions here have been broken."
"ha?"
Black King poked his head out. "Could it be that tomb raiders have been here?"
The thought that the treasures buried with him in the tomb might have been taken by someone else made him scratch his head and plead: "My treasures! Go check if they're still there."
Shi Feng stepped aside: "I can't walk fast, you go ahead. Let me see if the dog raised by Emperor Wushi really has any ability."
Black Emperor wanted to protect Shi Feng in front of him, but since Shi Feng mentioned the name of the Great Emperor Wushi, Black Emperor had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it in order not to embarrass the Great Emperor.
Shi Feng also took the little girl off Hei Huang's back to prevent her from wandering off with him.
"Woof!"
Seeing that his greatest reliance had been taken away by Shi Feng, the Black Emperor couldn't help but bark like a dog. After glaring at Shi Feng, he lay down and carefully studied the restrictions, especially the damaged ones, and found that he could barely piece together a path.
He stood up, took two big steps, used the "Travel" technique, and transformed into a black shadow, rushing through the gap in the restriction at lightning speed.
He occasionally stepped on some of the restrictions along the way, triggering various kinds of dark lightning and curses, which made him howl in pain.
Shi Feng took in all of this and figured out the location of these remaining restrictions, so he could bypass them later.
It has to be said that Black Emperor is indeed worthy of being the dog of the Great Emperor Wushi. His body is really tough. Although he was injured, his bark was full of energy. I feel that we can definitely use him to scout the way when we go to the tomb in the future.
Holding the little girl in his arms, he simultaneously used the Xingzi Secret Technique and the Kunpeng Treasure Technique to deftly avoid the places where the Black Emperor had stepped on landmines.
Ye Fan followed closely behind, and as soon as he entered, he heard Black King's dog barking, along with an exasperated voice:
"You damn dog, get your mouth off me!"
"Woof woof woof!"
He saw the Black Emperor fighting a fat Taoist priest, causing chaos and confusion.
It's that wicked Taoist priest!
Ye Fan recognized Duan De at a glance. He kept a mental record of everyone who had bullied him.
On one side was Duan De, who had stolen his things, and on the other side was the Black Emperor.
Neither of these guys wanted to help; they just wanted to see them beat the dog brains out, and ideally, die together.
Shi Feng watched the play with great interest, while the little girl said in a soft, sweet voice:
"Stop fighting."
Unfortunately, Duan De wouldn't listen to her, so the Black Emperor wouldn't give in either.
Shi Feng sighed, "Duan De, you're finished. You took Da Nannan's imperial weapon and still don't listen to her. You're courting death."
However, I decided to petition the little girl to spare your life. Now it seems you owe me another life.
You owe me so much, how are you going to pay me back!
"You damn dog, if you don't give in, I won't be polite!"
Duan De unleashed the Devouring Demon Cover, which looked unremarkable, but the Black Emperor had excellent eyesight and immediately opened its mouth upon seeing it.
"How did you, you fatso, end up with something like this?"
He immediately shielded Shi Feng in front of him, saying, "Do you think I'd be afraid of you with just half an Emperor-level weapon? Come and fight!"
"You cowardly bully, trying to shift the blame, huh?"
Ye Fan was very disappointed; why hadn't he killed the dog?
Duan De saw Shi Feng and knew he possessed the Azure Emperor's Weapon, so he put away the Devouring Demon Cover.
"Fellow Daoist, is this your dog? It has such a foul mouth!"
His expression was one of extreme grief and indignation: "I was doing archaeological work, commemorating the sages of the past, when he suddenly rushed out and bit my butt! Is there any justice in this world?"
"What a load of rubbish! Archaeology, commemorating the ancients—you're just robbing tombs!"
The Black Emperor spat at him, "I, the Emperor, uphold justice and despise tomb raiders like you. I've come here specifically to teach you a lesson!"
"You're no better than me!"
The moment Duan De saw the Black Emperor, he sensed that he was a fellow traveler.
"You come up here and bite me, and you even try to steal my things. You have no conscience! If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Shi, I would have smashed you to death with this lid."
Shi Feng said, "You don't need to consider my feelings; this isn't my dog."
Duan De looked at Ye Fan, who quickly distanced himself from the situation:
"This isn't mine either; it's Emperor Wushi's dog."
The Black Emperor roared, "That man surnamed Ye is my pet! Go, Ye Fan, and show him your power!"
"You're the one who's a human pet! No, you're a dog pet!"
Ye Fan smacked the Black Emperor's head repeatedly, only to be bitten back by the Black Emperor.
Shi Feng was already used to the fights between the man and the dog, but Duan De was quite surprised:
"Emperor Wushi even kept dogs?"
Black Emperor proudly raised his head, "It is my honor to be the dog of the Great Emperor Wushi!"
Duan De's eyes flickered. As the saying goes, "One glimpse of Wushi and all worldly wisdom vanishes." This great emperor was truly legendary. If I could get a clue from this dog and visit the tomb of the Great Emperor Wushi, it would be a monument in my remembrance of the sages of the past!
Who knows, we might find an imperial weapon and an imperial scripture? Wasn't his Devouring Demon Canopy something we dug up from a grave?
Black Emperor suddenly became alert: "You wouldn't be thinking of digging up the Emperor's grave, would you?"
"How is that possible?"
Duan De was full of righteousness. "I have nothing but reverence for Emperor Wushi. I want to pay my respects to Emperor Wushi, admire his glory, and hope that his brilliance can shine on the earth again."
"You freaking want to rob graves."
Black Emperor lunged forward, determined not to allow tomb raiders to covet the Great Emperor Wushi, even though he himself did not know where the Great Emperor Wushi's tomb was.
Watching the man and dog locked in combat once again, Shi Feng said leisurely:
"There is no tomb of the Great Emperor Wushi, but I know where the Great Emperor Wushi's Daoist temple is. There are the Great Emperor Wushi's imperial scriptures, imperial weapons, and a complete elixir of immortality."
