The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me
Chapter 1832 - 1830: Divine Stone Shattered"Shut up, there's no place for you to speak here!"
Tang Rao was tied up but still talked a lot. At this point, it was inevitable that he would receive a whip.
"Oh dear, you bandits and robbers, it's one thing not to follow Law Enforcement, but you also hit people. Where is the law? Is there no law at all?"
Slap!
Another whip lashed over, this time harder than before, even someone as resilient as Tang Rao couldn't help but cry out in pain.
"You can't be sure if I'm allowed to stay here yet, and you treat me like this. Aren't you afraid of wronging a good person?"
Before there's confirmation from the Divine Stone, touching Tang Rao is a risky move for anyone; nobody on Cimu Mountain wants to offend someone without reason.
Even if this person isn't as powerful as them, it's the same.
"Stop, let's wait until the Divine Stone arrives and then talk."
Under Tang Rao's persuasion, these people thought a lot more clearly.
"The Divine Stone is here!"
Just as Tang Rao was arguing with these people, the announcement of the Divine Stone's arrival came from outside.
"Welcome the Divine Stone!"
"Get down on your knees, quickly!"
Those who understood quickly knelt down, while the ignorant ones were kicked to the ground by the more experienced, without leaving room for complaints.
Among all these people, Tang Rao was the only one who didn't kneel, as he was tied to a wooden cross; even if he wanted to kneel, he was unable to.
"How dare you, not kneeling when the Divine Stone is here, who gave you the right?"
The person holding the Divine Stone knew full well that Tang Rao was bound to the stake, yet they deliberately picked on Tang Rao, clearly making things difficult for him.
"Big brother, you better open your eyes clearly, your brothers tied me to the post and beat and scolded me, I can't even retaliate, let alone kneel down. You're really going too far with your bullying."
They openly targeted Tang Rao, without even a thought of giving him face.
Since they treated Tang Rao like that, he had no reason to be polite to them.
"Being here, just look at all the whip marks on you, and you still haven't learned your lesson."
See? Tang Rao knew this person had ill intent, and it turned out to be true.
"The person who whipped me didn't even know how to do it properly, but I remember the face of whoever hit me just now."
Tang Rao swept his eyes casually, and those who had hit him earlier were now restless, for whenever his gaze passed, those who had struck him felt his glare.
Was this a threat or a warning?
"So what if you remember my face? Do you believe I can crush you right now?"
The one who struck the blow was startled at first, but once they came to, they realized Tang Rao was just bluffing. Who knows how long it will take before Tang Rao could really hold sway on Cimu Mountain.
"I believe, I certainly believe, you're so capable. But before you crush me, we should follow the rules and let the Divine Stone speak first. If the Divine Stone doesn't recognize me, you can deal with me as you like. But if the Divine Stone does recognize me, then you better be prepared for my revenge in the future!"
An incense stick's time ago, Tang Rao wouldn't have brazenly boasted such things. Why was he now daring to say anything?
This goes back to the change happening to Tang Rao.
Before the Divine Stone entered, there wasn't a hint of change on Tang Rao. But when someone brought in the Divine Stone, the one on Tang Rao started reacting vigorously.
It was a familiar, comforting feeling Tang Rao hadn't felt for a long time.
He realized it once the Divine Stone was mentioned by these people; initially, he didn't connect it to himself. But as soon as his Divine Stone relentlessly tried to approach the one held by the others, Tang Rao became alert.
"Big talk, in a moment I'll have you in tears!"
They couldn't quite understand where the confidence in Tang Rao's gaze was coming from. That little look, filled with confidence, was almost overflowing.
"Bring out the Divine Stone."
The person who was intimidated now just wanted to see Tang Rao humiliated, the higher you stand, the harder you fall. He intended to take advantage of Tang Rao's distress by stomping on him harshly.
Unveiling the red cloth revealed the unique glow of the Divine Stone, a light exactly like the one on Tang Rao's divine stone.
"This is the Divine Stone, isn't it different from what you imagined? For lower people like you, seeing the Divine Stone even once is a great blessing; to be killed by it, even more so a grand fortune!"
If dying is such a grand fortune, then Tang Rao really couldn't bear this kind of fortune.
"Well, thank you then."
Once the Divine Stone appeared, Tang Rao immediately knew it was inevitably connected to the one he had.
"We come by the will of the gods, to verify whether you are of Cimu Mountain's bloodline."
As soon as the main subject was brought up, everyone became serious, indicating their profound respect for the Divine Stone!
"Come, I'm ready for your verification. But before that, I need to ask what the verification rules are. Don't think I don't know your tricks. If I find something wrong halfway and you change the rules, I'll be at a loss?"
Tang Rao was clever, knowing to ask clearly first, lest he be tricked by these people without knowing why.
"You're quite smart, so I'll tell you. The Divine Stone recognizes its master; it will glow in seven colors. If you're eligible to enter Cimu Mountain, it will turn red. If you're an intruder, it will turn black, and..."
At this point, the person holding the Divine Stone let out a less-than-kind sound.
"And you should know, if the Divine Stone shows black, you'll be punished and die immediately!"
This was getting quite serious!
No matter how bold, Tang Rao wasn't about to go against himself. What if his assumption was wrong?
"Is it that serious?"
Tang Rao looked surprised.
"Whether you're afraid or not, you have to go through with it. Coming to Cimu Mountain means shouldering the consequences!"
With words at this level, how could Tang Rao waver? He had to steel his neck and go through with it. Heaven had long marked Tang Rao as the successor, hadn't it? Since he's the future successor, the world would be Tang Rao's. Could Tang Rao really not come here?
"Bring me the Divine Stone. I refuse to believe someone as awesome as me would die here!"
After being untied one hand, he hesitated for two seconds, then placed it atop resolutely!
The Divine Stone was unresponsive at first, Tang Rao placed his hand several times, still nothing. After several more tries, Tang Rao noticed the temperature in his hand was off, then the Divine Stone emitted a crisp sound.
