Chapter 5225 Master and Apprentice(2/2)
As the thought came together, Wang Pingbei's eyes widened, a chill ran through his heart, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"Pingbei, tell me, where is the treasure now...and Chen Xiao from Sanjie Mountain, who is he?"
The old man pressed his hand on Wang Pingbei's shoulder and gently clasped it.
"As long as you tell me, I will give you a way out."
"Master... Chen Xiao is from Three Realms Mountain..."
Wang Pingbei tried hard to calm down and regretted coming to meet him.
"In the eyes of the outside world, you are also from Sanjie Mountain and are Chen Xiao's follower... No one knows that you are the genius of Qingyun Tower."
The old man shook his head.
"So, I have doubts about Chen Xiao's identity."
"..."
Wang Pingbei's thoughts suddenly changed. Master had already become suspicious of Xiao Chen's identity. How should he make it up?
"Pingbei, I know you, so don't try to deceive me... As long as you tell the truth, no matter what I can't bear to do to you, I will definitely give you a way to survive."
The old man said again.
"Master, Chen Xiao really comes from Three Realms Mountain... He saved my life, and I happened to be unable to return to Qingyun Tower, so I followed him."
Wangping North Road.
"Is he the one who saved you in Tian Jueyuan?"
The old man's eyes flashed.
At that time, Qinglu spoke through the sound transmission stone, but did not mention much about who saved Wang Pingbei.
"Yes."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"In other words, he saved you and met Qinglu together. Later, Qinglu, Chen Jiangtao and the others died, but you lived."
The old man stared at Wang Pingbei.
"The nine-star divine spear and other treasures are all in Chen Xiao's hands?"
"No...no."
Wang Pingbei's expression changed. Except for Xiao Chen's identity, everything else... was pretty much the same.
"Chen Xiao..."
The old man frowned. If the Qingyun Tower and other treasures fell into Xiao Chen's hands, it would be a bit troublesome.
Nothing else, Xiao Chen is too strong.
It's not that easy to get the treasure back.
What's more, he still wants to get the treasure without anyone noticing.
"Master, the Nine-Star Divine Spear was snatched away by Chen Jiangtao..."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"Chen Jiangtao was not dead at that time. As for how he died, I don't know."
"You lied to me."
The old man's voice turned cold, and the hand on Wang Pingbei's shoulder moved to his neck.
Wang Pingbei trembled and did not dare to resist at all.
He knew very well that as long as the master exerted force, he could break his neck, leaving him unable to fight back.
"Pingbei, master, I owe you as much kindness as a mountain, right?"
The old man's tone softened a bit.
"As long as you hand over the treasure, I will not kill you and let you go... From now on, no matter whether you follow Chen Xiao or remain anonymous, no one will know anymore."
"Master, will you...really let me live?"
Wang Pingbei felt bitter in his heart. Yes, his master was also a ruthless character... Fortunately, he thought that the master-disciple relationship would allow his master to let him go.
Now it seems that, as he guessed, the reason why he came to him without making any announcement was not because of the relationship between master and disciple, but because he wanted to monopolize the treasure!
"I'm afraid, if I hand over the treasure, you will kill me immediately to prevent me from spreading the news."
Upon hearing Wang Pingbei's words, a cold light flashed in the old man's eyes, but was quickly suppressed.
He did think so.
This proud disciple, after leaving Qingyun Tower, can no longer be used by him.
What's the use of keeping it?
No matter how proud you are, if it is no longer useful, it will become worthless waste.
"How could that be? You are Master's proud disciple. In my eyes, you are equivalent to my child."
The old man shook his head.
"The treasure is indeed in your hands... As long as you hand over the treasure, I will let you leave."
"Master, since you can see it, I won't hide it from you."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"That's right, Qingyun Tower, Nine-Star Divine Spear, etc. are all in my hands, not only them, but also the East Pole Shield of Shanhai Tower, etc."
"oh?"
The old man's eyes flashed with greed, more than he imagined.
"However, I didn't bring it with me, and even Chen Xiao didn't know about it... If he knew about it, do you think I can still keep it?"
Wang Pingbei said again.
"I buried them all in a place in Tianjue Abyss, and I thought about digging them out later."
"where?"
The old man's eyes lit up.
"It's not far from Tianjue Peak... So you probably don't have any idea. If you have a pen and paper, I'll draw it for you."
When Wang Pingbei said this, he paused.
"I wish I had drawn it and you could have let me live."
"Can."
The old man was filled with treasures and released his hand from Wang Pingbei's neck.
The main thing is that he is confident that he can handle Wang Pingbei.
He is the master!
"Follow me inside. There are pens and paper inside."
"good."
