I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

346 To Say One Thing but Mean Another

“Xia… Xia Donghai…”

After an unknown period of time, Chi Yanli spat out a sentence in a daze, “Xia Donghai… What exactly have you done inside?”

All the citizens of the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons knew this majestic figure.

The First Ruler!

However, at this moment, the First Ruler did not appear in his complete form. Instead, there was only an incomplete skeleton left. Even so, his aura was still earth-shattering. The skeleton emitted a weak golden light and looked extraordinary and divine. His entire body seemed to be cast from divine gold. From afar, he looked like a deity that had descended to the mortal world.

“How… how can this be?”

“That Xia Donghai… What exactly did he do on the second level?”

At that instant, the same question surfaced in the minds of countless demon beasts.

Before this, there were demon beasts which swore that no matter what Feng Xia did, they would not be surprised at all.

They said they would feel the same even if the First Ruler was resurrected!

As it turned out, they were still too naive.

This was because…

The First Ruler had really been resurrected!

“Can that Patriarch Muchen do all this?” Xuan Qinghe trembled and lowered its head involuntarily. Thousands of thoughts surged and flashed through its mind. “No, Patriarch Muchen is still far from being able to do so. In this case, there’s only one answer…”

Xia!

Dong!

Hai!

“Xia Donghai… He actually resurrected the First Ruler?”

At this moment.

The huge skeleton in the sky suddenly moved, and a deafening voice entered all their ears.

“Everyone…”

…

“Achoo!”

Deep in the darkness of the second level of the Demon Imperial Tombs.

Feng Xia sneezed for no reason, and the expression on his face became even stranger. “Strange, why does it seem that many people have been talking about me recently? Have I become so popular?”

Moreover, for some reason, he had a bad premonition that kept lingering in his heart.

“Yes, I’m the kind of person who will help old grandmas when I go out… Any old grandma whom I have helped before will say good things about me, and even rush to give me good reviews and likes. I don’t think it’s anything bad.”

Feng Xia muttered instinctively.

His gaze suddenly moved slightly. He had spotted a faint light at the far end.

Although this ray of light was extremely weak, due to the fact that this was a dark wasteland, it appeared even more resplendent than a bright lamp and more blazing than the sun!

What surprised Feng Xia even more was…

In the direction of the light, there was a faint sense of vitality!

If he “looked” at it using the perception of a divine being, he saw a patch of sparkling green that lit up at the end of the horizon. Spots of spiritual light formed a thin canopy and it looked quite pleasing to the eye.

“That’s the village that the girls found? No… there’s actually such an oasis in the second level of the wasteland? What exactly is this place?”

Feng Xia was initially delighted.

However, he immediately frowned.

It was obvious that the entire second level had been turned into a wasteland without any signs of life. No matter where they went, it was shrouded in gray fog, and countless corpse monsters would attack them…

To be able to preserve an oasis filled with vitality here, be it natural or man-made, it meant that this place naturally had something extraordinary inside!

However, whether this extraordinariness was good or bad, that was unknown for the time being.

“There’s almost only darkness left in the second level. Even if divine beings use their soul power to sense around, it will be seriously blocked by the gray fog. Is it purely an accident that the girls are able to find this place, or is someone secretly plotting something…”

“There’s actually… an oasis in such a place?”

Next to Feng Xia, Patriarch Muchen’s eyes widened as well.

Immediately after, a look of surprise appeared on his chubby face. “No matter what, we can take a breather now that we have a place to rest. Xia Donghai, what are you waiting for?”

Upon hearing this, Feng Xia immediately turned around with a faint smile. “Of course I’m waiting for you to be a scout.”

Patriarch Muchen’s expression changed.

Although his reputation was extremely bad, he was actually quite cowardly. Facing such a strange place and the earlier terrifying experience of almost being dragged into the darkness, he immediately became extremely vigilant the moment Feng Xia spoke.

“Xia Donghai is definitely a guy who doesn’t get up early without benefits. This guy hasn’t taken the initiative to rush forward but stops here. This means that there might be a big problem with that oasis!”

The moment Patriarch Muchen thought about this, he realized that something was wrong. He instinctively took a few steps back.

However, before that, Feng Xia had already quietly raised his hand.

In his hand was a shining butcher knife!

“Muchen, obey me.” Feng Xia smiled brightly.

“Xia… Xia Donghai!!” Patriarch Muchen’s face was filled with grief and indignation. “I will never submit to you! If you threaten me with that butcher knife again, believe it or not, I will…”

“Go and scout around.”

Feng Xia casually said a few words.

...

“Alright.”

A brilliant smile immediately appeared on Patriarch Muchen’s chubby face. He raised his hand and slapped his belly. Then, his entire body exploded into blood clouds. After that, an incredibly ancient war drum tore through the air and headed straight for the oasis in the distance.

“Xia—Dong—Hai—”

“I’m not done with you—”

“You’re indeed not done with me.”

Looking at Patriarch Muchen’s departing figure, the corners of Feng Xia’s mouth curled up slightly. He muttered to himself with a smile, “After all, there are still many dangerous places to explore in this wasteland… You need to be the one to scout around.”

Patriarch Muchen, who was flying at high speed, felt a terrifying chill.

“What, what’s going on!”

“Why do I suddenly feel so cold?”

“Oh no! I’m flying too fast. I’m going to hit the person in front!”

Rumble—

...

Only when the earth-shattering impact occurred did Patriarch Muchen realize a problem.

In the huge wasteland of the second level, how could there be a living person for him to bump into?

Based on his previous experience, even if he really bumped into something, it would most likely be those corpse monsters!

“Damn it…”

Patriarch Muchen, who had returned to his original form, flew up unsteadily. Not far in front of him, a skinny old woman was lying on the ground face down. She moaned in extreme pain with a hoarse voice.

“Oh my… My waist is broken… Am I going to die…”
