The Queen travels through time and dominates the four realms

Chapter 227

"Then when do we set off?" asked Baimei Heying.

"Let's go now, we can't delay any longer." Ren Xiaoyao said.

The three of them packed up their things and headed for the ghost market. They hurried along the way and soon arrived at the ghost market. They entered the ghost market carefully and found that it was still as quiet and mysterious as before.

They began to search for the mysterious boy in the ghost market, but found nothing unusual. They were about to continue searching when suddenly a cold laugh came.

"Do you think you can find that mysterious boy?" The man in black suddenly appeared in front of them.

Ren Xiaoyao frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

The man in black said coldly: "I am the owner of this ghost market."

Ren Xiaoyao was stunned and asked, "You? The owner of the ghost market?"

The man in black nodded and said, "Yes, it's me. I know you are looking for that mysterious boy, but you can't find him."

Ren Xiaoyao frowned and asked, "Why?"

The man in black sneered, "Because he has already left here, you can't find him."

Ren Xiaoyao's heart tightened, and he asked, "Left? Where would he go?"

The man in black did not answer, but turned around and prepared to leave. Ren Xiaoyao was about to speak when he saw the man in black suddenly turn around and attack them. Ren Xiaoyao reacted quickly and immediately fought. Baimei Heying and Aniu also joined the battle, and the three of them besieged the man in black. However, the man in black's strength was beyond their expectations, and the three of them combined were still unable to resist his attack.

"You'd better surrender, or don't blame me for being rude." The man in black said coldly.

Ren Xiaoyao frowned, feeling that the black-clothed man's words were a little strange. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly attacked them. His attack was very fierce, and he seemed to no longer hide his strength. Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying barely resisted the black-clothed man's attack, but Ah Niu was knocked to the ground because of his lack of strength.

"Aniu!" Ren Xiaoyao exclaimed. He was about to rescue Aniu, but saw the man in black slap him. Ren Xiaoyao was unable to resist and was knocked to the ground. Baimei Heying also fell to the ground. They were no longer able to fight.

The man in black looked at the three of them falling to the ground, snorted coldly, and turned away. At this moment, a mysterious voice suddenly came from a distance: "It seems that my plan has succeeded."

Ren Xiaoyao struggled to stand up. He looked at the man in black who had gone far away, and his heart was full of doubts. Who was this man in black? Why did he attack them? Ren Xiaoyao did not realize at this time that this was actually a manifestation of his deep fear and uncertainty. He did not dare to believe that this man in black was the mysterious boy they were looking for.

"Are you okay?" Baimei Heying struggled to stand up. He looked at Aniu who was lying on the ground and felt a little worried.

"I'm fine, just slightly injured." Aniu said painfully, gritting his teeth.

"We have to leave here quickly. We can no longer deal with that man in black." Ren Xiaoyao said.

"Then let's go quickly." Baimei Heying helped Aniu up, and the three of them immediately fled from the ghost market.

They were running through the forest, and they didn't know how long they had been running. Suddenly, Ren Xiaoyao stopped. He looked ahead, his eyes full of confusion.

"What's wrong?" asked Baimei Heying.

"There seems to be someone in front." Ren Xiaoyao said.

The three of them approached the front cautiously and found that a group of people were besieging a person. Ren Xiaoyao and the others were immediately surprised that the person being besieged was actually the mysterious young man.

"Let's go over and help." said Aniu.

"No rush, let's take a look at the situation first." Ren Xiaoyao stopped Aniu. He found that this group of gangsters did not want to kill the mysterious boy, but wanted to force him to hand over something.

"You'd better hand it over obediently to avoid physical pain." said a gangster.

The mysterious young man sneered and said, "I will never give you what you want."

The gang members were furious, and one of them drew his sword and stabbed the mysterious boy. The mysterious boy dodged the attack and punched the gang member. The gang member screamed and fell to the ground.

Ren Xiaoyao and the others were stunned. This mysterious boy was so powerful. They also had an idea in their minds: Who is this mysterious boy? What is he hiding?

"Let's go ahead." said Baimei Heying.

"Wait, let's see." Ren Xiaoyao stopped Baimei Heying. He found that the attack of this group of martial artists on the mysterious young man was not very fierce. It seemed that they were just testing his strength.

The mysterious young man moved like the wind, dodging the crowd's attack. He suddenly shouted and slammed his hands to the ground. A large crack suddenly appeared on the ground, and a powerful force burst out instantly. Before the group of people could react, they were blown away by the powerful force.

The mysterious boy looked at everyone coldly and said, "Don't you understand? You will never find that thing."

Hearing this, Ren Xiaoyao and the others were shocked. Why did this mysterious boy say this? Did he know something?

"Let's go." Ren Xiaoyao looked at the mysterious boy's back as he left, his heart full of doubts. They decided to follow the mysterious boy to see if they could find some clues from him.

Ren Xiaoyao, Baimei Heying and Aniu hurriedly chased after the mysterious young man, and the air was filled with an unknown tension.

"We have to be careful." White-browed Crane Shadow warned, "The strength of that mysterious young man is unfathomable."

"We have to find out what he knows." Ren Xiaoyao's eyes were fixed on the front.

"What do I know?" Suddenly, the voice of the mysterious boy sounded in front of them.

The three were startled to find that the mysterious boy was standing in front of them, his eyes gleaming with amusement.

"What are you following me for?" he asked.

"We..." Ren Xiaoyao hesitated, "We would like you to tell us what you just said."

The mysterious boy smiled, "Do you really want to know?"

"Yes." Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying said in unison.

The mysterious boy looked at them and then slowly said, "Do you know what the most precious thing in this world is?"

"Is it a treasure?" Aniu asked tentatively.

The mysterious boy shook his head, "No."

"What is that?" Ren Xiaoyao was a little confused.

"It's power." The mysterious young man looked at them with a deep gaze, "Only power can allow you to truly stand at the top of this world."

"Power?" Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying were still a little confused.

"Yes, power." The mysterious boy looked at them with a sly look in his eyes. "Come with me, I will tell you the truth."

The words of this mysterious boy filled Ren Xiaoyao and the others with doubts and expectations. They also wanted to know what the most precious thing in the world was. They followed the mysterious boy into the deep forest.

In the deep forest, ancient trees towered and the light was mottled. The mysterious boy led them through the forest in many twists and turns. They didn't know how long they had walked. Ren Xiaoyao and the other two had long lost their direction, but they followed the boy silently without any complaints.

"We're here." The mysterious boy stopped and pointed ahead.

Ren Xiaoyao and the others looked up and found an ancient temple standing in front of them. The temple looked very old, but it was miraculously kept clean and tidy without any trace of decay.

"This is..." Ren Xiaoyao asked hesitantly.

"This is the master's residence." replied the mysterious boy.

"Your master?" Ren Xiaoyao was stunned.

"Yes, my master." The mysterious boy didn't explain much. He pushed open the temple door and walked in.

Ren Xiaoyao and the other two looked at each other and followed him in. The temple was filled with smoke and a golden statue of a god was enshrined. The mysterious young man knelt down in front of the god and kowtowed three times respectfully.

"Master, they are coming." The young man said to the god.

"Who is your master?" Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but ask.

The mysterious young man did not answer, but turned and walked to the corner of the temple, where there was a shabby wooden bed. He picked up a cloth bag on the bed, returned to the god, and took out a dagger with a cold glow from it.

"Do you want to know what the most precious thing in this world is?" He looked at Ren Xiaoyao and the other two with a deep gaze.

"Yes." Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying nodded at the same time.

The mysterious boy smiled and said, "Then I'll tell you, that is - power."

He raised the dagger and stabbed it into his shoulder. Blood splattered, but the boy didn't care at all. Instead, he showed a relieved smile.

"What are you doing?" Ren Xiaoyao exclaimed.

"What should I do?" the mysterious young man asked, "I want to use my blood to wake up the sleeping master."

Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying looked at him, their hearts filled with shock. At this moment, the god suddenly emitted a golden light, and the entire temple was instantly enveloped by the golden light. A powerful force surged out of the god and rushed straight towards the mysterious boy.

The mysterious boy shouted loudly, and his whole body was filled with true energy, blocking the force. He held the dagger tightly and rushed towards the god. Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying wanted to stop him, but found that they could not move. They could only watch the mysterious boy approach the god step by step.

Just as he was about to touch the god, the temple suddenly shook. A huge figure emerged from behind the god and knocked the mysterious boy away with one palm.

"Master." The mysterious young man spat out a mouthful of blood, but did not dare to complain at all.

Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying were also stunned. This mysterious figure looked like an old monk, but his strength was unfathomable. Just a casual attack almost killed the mysterious boy.

"Master, what did I do wrong?" The mysterious young man knelt on the ground and asked in a trembling voice.

The old monk did not answer him, but turned to look at Ren Xiaoyao and Baimei Heying. His gaze was like a torch, irresistible.

"What are you doing here?" His voice was a little hoarse, but full of majesty.

Ren Xiaoyao swallowed his saliva and said with gritted teeth: "We are here to find the legendary treasure that can give people power."

The old monk didn't say anything, just looked at them. His gaze made Ren Xiaoyao feel like a thorn in his back, as if he could see through his thoughts.

The temple instantly fell into silence. Ren Xiaoyao and the other two looked at the old monk nervously, waiting for his answer.

Finally, the old monk spoke, "You young people are always curious about these legends." He glanced at Ren Xiaoyao indifferently, "You can't take that treasure now."

"Why?" Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but ask.

"Because you are not ready yet." The old monk slowly stood up, walked in front of the deity, and bowed respectfully. "You need to learn respect and humility first."

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Ren Xiaoyao and the other two looking at each other in bewilderment. They watched the old monk's departing back, their hearts filled with doubts.

"What should we do?" asked Aniu.

"We..." Ren Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment, "Let's wait here for the treasure to appear."
