Chapter 441: Chapter 366 Sun Iron Essence, Demon Path Sect Master
Crack!
With the heavy bronze relief gate in front of him slowly opening, a scorching wind hit him in the face.
Liu Wenhuan did not hesitate; he stepped forward in two strides and then his head heavily knocked on the ground, making a “thud” sound. He spoke with a tone full of gratitude, earnestly saying, “Thank you, senior, for your assistance. I shall never forget this even in death.”
He glanced at the scenery in this reception hall using the corner of his eye.
The light inside the room was sowhat dim; the floor was smooth, subtly reflecting so blurry images.
On both sides stood fully ard Dragon Guards, and on the raised platform in front, a bronze throne was placed. The master of the throne leaned by the window, holding a blue and white porcelain tea set, presently gazing at the vast landscape of rivers and mountains outside.
Su Heng put down the tea cup in his hand, turned around, and spoke in a casual tone, “You should know that all gifts in the world co at a price, there is no such thing as a free lunch, nor unreasoned blessings. Especially since you ca to my territory to avoid disaster, you have brought trouble upon , do you understand?”
Liu Wenhuan hung his head low, speaking in fear, “I hope the senior forgives .”
"Uh-huh.” Su Heng nodded, “You should know what to do.”
When Wang Xindong took Liu Wenhuan away, he had already anticipated what would happen next. He thought he had been prepared, but in the end, he was still hesitant.
Even if… he truly took out the items from the treasure vault, could he really contend against the Heart Demon Sect?
Moreover, the current situation was very dangerous.
Even though this legendary Demon Dragon still appeared amicable.
But he had witnessed the end of Xu Hongshu and knew what would happen if he said “no” at this mont.
"Well Liu Wenhuan sighed inwardly, shaking his head. As he released the pent-up resentnt along the way, his shoulders also relaxed and drooped. He reached into his bosom and pulled out a dark Token, presented it upwards with both hands to Su Heng, “This Kunwu Seal is the key to opening the manor’s treasure vault.”
"As for the exact location of the vault, I could draw a map,” added Liu Wenhuan.
Su Heng’s eyebrows briefly raised, showing an interested expression on his face.
He stretched out his hand and motioned forward. The Token imdiately flew up, crossing half the hall, and landed heavily in Su Heng’s hand. Su Heng rubbed it lightly with his rough fingers. The layer of grease covering the Token was imdiately cleaned off, and in the dim environnt, the tal underneath burst out with a golden light, appearing quite mystical. Ꞧἁ₦ŏᛒĚȘ
At that mont, Su Heng’s eyes narrowed, sensing a familiar feeling from the tal.
He pondered briefly.
Soon realizing the special power contained within the tal.
It was sowhat similar to the Golden Crow Heart within his own body.
"Could it be… radiation?”
Su Heng was sowhat surprised; his Second Heart was obtained from the body of a Golden Crow Corpse. By the ti he found it, the Golden Crow had been dead for many years, and the heart left behind was naturally damaged. Afterwards, Su Heng spent so effort trying to repair it, but the effect was not very noticeable.
He speculated that absorbing so radioactive minerals and changing his own physique might repair the inherent deficiencies of the Golden Crow Heart.
During this ti.
Su Heng had recorded so characteristics of radioactive minerals he rembered.
And then specifically arranged for people to search for them.
Regrettably, to this point, there had still been no findings.
Su Heng had almost forgotten about this matter, not expecting that by coincidence, he would gain an unexpected joy in this affair.
Hmm…
Indeed not bad!
Su Heng thought for a mont and asked, “What material is this Token made of?”
"Reporting to senior,” Liu Wenhuan hurriedly answered, “It is made from a rare tal called Sun God Iron Essence.”
"I’ve heard that Wanliu Manor is ranked among the three major assassin organizations in Central State because you practice a certain Secret Technique that greatly suppresses the undying aspect of Earth Immortals,” Su Heng asked, “Does this Secret Technique have a connection with the Sun Iron Essence in my hand?”
Liu Wenhuan was shocked, his face visibly flustered.
This matter, even within Wanliu Manor, was a secret only known to a few.
He did not expect that soone completely unrelated, thousands of miles away, would have discerned the secret. Could this Demon Dragon truly possess the ability to comprehend all things? Liu Wenhuan dared not think further, but in his eyes, Su Heng’s image beca even more unfathomable.
"Senior’s insight is like a torch, that’s exactly it!” Liu Wenhuan suppressed the panic in his heart and answered respectfully.
"Is there a lot of Sun Iron Essence stored in the heritage vault of Wanliu Manor?”
"I only visited once with my father when I was young,” Liu Wenhuan recalled, “It seed indeed there was a considerable amount stored.”
"I see.” Su Heng nodded.
A Dragon Guard brought over paper and pen, and Liu Wenhuan recorded the location of the vault from his mory. Then he bowed to Su Heng, and after receiving the promise that his safety would be ensured, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave the room.
Su Heng looked at the record left by Liu Wenhuan, pondered briefly, clapped his hands, and sent a ssage.
Before long.
The door nearby suddenly opened, and a tall and burly figure walked in.
The man had bronze skin, his hair standing tall like a wild horse. It was Solban, whom he had not seen since they parted in the Dragon Abyss.
"It seems your injuries have recovered well.”
Su Heng handed over the Kunwu Seal and the records left by Liu Wenhuan to him, saying, “I have a task for you to handle.”
"What is it?” Solban bowed with clasped fists.
Su Heng repeated the important parts of his previous conversation with Liu Wenhuan, “I need to guard against the Mythical Battlefield here, and with Ming Daoist on the brink of breakthrough, I can’t leave. This task can only be entrusted to you.”
"Rest assured!” Solban’s expression turned solemn, sensing a hint of danger from the Sun God Iron Essence.
He instantly understood that the value of this tal must be extraordinary.
Undying properties are almost the greatest reliance of Earth Immortal warriors, who sotis even deliberately engage in damaging trades. Caught off guard, they could be crippled on the spot, likely resulting in imdiate death.
Solban is strong, and additionally, he is cunning.
Su Heng felt very reassured having him handle matters.
"Be mindful of your safety.” Su Heng thought for a mont, flicked his finger, and a drop of scorching Dragon Blood flew out, hovering in front of Solban.
"This is a Blood Seal I’ve condensed, containing the strength of my normal strike.”
"If you encounter any inescapable special situation, activate it to escape,” Su Heng instructed.
"Understood!” Solban carefully stored it away.
"Go quickly and return quickly.” Su Heng waved his hand.
Solban turned and left.
…
…
…
Linjiang, Qingchuan State.
A gray mountain range enshrouded in miasma.
Inside, ancient trees of strange and bizarre shapes intertwined with spider webs, and huge demons roared skyward, with a blood-red moon hanging high in the sky. Accompanied by a rustling sound, a large swarm of blood-colored bat-like creatures flapped their wings, flying towards a steep cliff.
This cliff, known as Wangchen Mountain, was where the headquarters of the Heart Demon Sect was located.
At that mont—
Inside a dark and chilling temple.
With a “snap” sound, a black-clothed woman with deep eyeshadow, black lips, and a face full of hostility, smashed a tea cup in her hand onto the ground.
The valuable Jade Tea Cup shattered instantly upon hitting the floor.
The black tea inside splashed out, hissing as it hit the stone tiles.
Furthermore, a whiff of smoke rose, revealing a sinister red skeletal ghostly figure, emitting a sharp, bizarre laughter.
On the floor knelt a young disciple responsible for reporting news.
Although the Heart Demon Sect was a sect of the Demon Path, it exceedingly emphasized the cultivation of inner nature. Having practiced for so many years within the sect, he had never seen the usually dignified and graceful Sect Master lose her temper so fiercely.
At this mont, the disciple trembled with fear, not even daring to breathe heavily, afraid of becoming an innocent bystander caught in this wrathful fire.
Fortunately, such unlucky events did not occur.
Nangong Yue waved her hand, and the young disciple, relieved, hurriedly left the sinister temple.
"After all these years of hard planning, to think that at the critical mont, a cursed dragon suddenly snatched the prize!”
"I’m absolutely furious!”
Nangong Yue paced back and forth in the hall, unable to suppress the frustration in her heart.
With a flick of her black flowing cloud sleeves, a whirlwind blasted past, and all the doors and windows opened with a “bang,” startling countless birds on Wangchen Mountain to take flight.
"Please Sect Master, calm your anger!”
Amidst the flickering firelight, an elderly voice was heard.
It belonged to an old man with hunchbacked posture and a rat-like appearance, seemingly indulging in excesses, making him look sowhat sloppy.
This old man, known as Huang Xuzi, was a Supre Elder from the Yellow Wind Sect and held an esteed status. His thieving eyes lingered covetously on Nangong Yue’s graceful contours before he swallowed and said lewdly, “Sect Master, with your beauty that overshadows all others, if you were to harm your health from anger, that would be truly regrettable.”
"If you dare to look any further, I will pluck out your eyes and make you eat them,” Nangong Yue snorted coldly.
"Also, the Yellow Wind Sect has put quite an effort into this matter. Now that it has ended like this, are you willing to just accept it?”
Nangong Yue seed to think of sothing, her brows lightly furrowed, and while pacing, she continued:
"I received news from Central State that Emperor Wu’s life will end soon. A monarch of a nation, unmatched in the world, even in death, it will not be peaceful, and perhaps a world-shaking war will erupt. Once the Central State Mythical Battlefield breaks open, the entire Dynasty will be affected, with no one able to stay out of it.”
"So
"Retreating a step in such a chaotic ti could an a plunge into an abyss,” Nangong Yue coldly said. “To not fight is to die, yet now all is lost, how could I possibly be content?”
"There might still be another turn around in this matter,” Huang Xuzi said, a cryptic smile on his face.
Nangong Yue’s heart shifted, surprised she asked, “Could it be that you have so plan?”
