Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 1256 - 1241: Escaping Disaster
"Who exactly are those two people, that even General Hu Tuo treats them like this!"
In Wuchuan Wasteland City, not only were the people below talking amongst themselves, but after General Hu Tuo left with the two people, even the Black Iron Divine Army were whispering to each other.
"No idea! We've never seen those two people in our Wuchuan Wasteland City before! But did you notice, that red-haired one's forehead flashed with a Flame Rune just now."
"Yes, I saw it too! It seemed that as soon as General Hu Tuo saw that Flame Rune, his whole demeanor changed!"
"Hmph! You all have no idea!" Just as the Black Iron Divine Soldiers were filled with confusion and puzzlement, a voice filled with disdain sounded.
Immediately, everyone's gaze was drawn to it.
They saw, the one who snorted disdainfully was the most senior Black Iron Divine Soldier in this unit!
"Brother Luo, do you know them?" someone quickly asked him.
"Yes! Brother Luo is the most senior in our army, he must know!" another person said.
"Brother Luo, who is that person? What is the Flame Rune all about?"
"Haha!" Hearing everyone calling him "Brother Luo," this Black Iron Divine Soldier named "Brother Luo" let out a mysterious laugh.
Having been in the Black Iron Divine Army for the longest time, the most senior, usually silent and overlooked, he rarely received respect from others.
Today! Haha! Finally, the day has come!
They finally understood who was the most senior and most knowledgeable in the Black Iron Divine Army!
At that moment, Brother Luo's weathered face revealed a proud expression as he slowly began to speak, "Actually, those two young men, I have never seen them before either. But I recognize the Flame Rune that appeared on that person's forehead."
As he spoke, Brother Luo suddenly paused.
Immediately, the other Black Iron Divine Soldiers knew what to do, and they quickly spoke up, "Indeed! Indeed, the key lies in that Flame Rune! Brother Luo knows indeed!"
"Brother Luo truly is insightful!"
"Didn't I always say? Brother Luo is the most knowledgeable among us Black Iron Divine Soldiers."
"Ahem!" Hearing these words, Brother Luo coughed, and immediately those Black Iron Divine Soldiers fell silent, waiting for Brother Luo to continue.
"Haha!" Brother Luo let out a laugh again, his expression becoming even more proud, as if all the oppression of the years had dissipated, and he felt a refreshed spirit.
He slowly began to speak again, "The Flame Rune that appeared on that person's forehead is none other than the Fire Talisman Order! But this person's Fire Talisman Order is different from ordinary ones. If I'm not mistaken, this person is the Flame Saint Son from the Flame Sacred Land, Huo Yu!"
"What!"
"What!"
"What!"
"What!"
As soon as Brother Luo's voice fell, exclamations of surprise immediately erupted. One by one, the Black Iron Divine Soldiers were shocked, their eyes wide open and mouths agape!
"Flame... Flame Sacred Land!"
"Flame... Flame Saint Son!"
"Huo... Huo Yu!"
One by one they exclaimed, unable to believe that the person turned out to be the Flame Saint Son, Huo Yu from the Flame Sacred Land!
Gradually, people seemed to realize something!
What if just now, General Hu Tuo's Demigod Power had fallen upon those two young people!
Then... what kind of nightmare would have befallen our Wuchuan Wasteland City!
Fortunately, thank goodness! Fortunately, General Hu Tuo recognized the Fire Talisman Order!
Thinking back to what had just happened, recalling the person's identity, each Black Iron Divine Soldier's heart trembled slightly, secretly relieved.
If they had offended the Flame Saint Son, then just a few strong practitioners from the Flame Saint Son could have wiped out all the living beings in this Wuchuan Wasteland Domain!
Such a scene would surely be bodies scattered everywhere, rivers of blood!
And they would become cold, incomplete corpses on the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea.
Just thinking about it made one feel terrified!
Thinking about what happened tonight leaves one with lingering fear!
Wuchuan Wasteland Domain seemed to have narrowly escaped a great calamity due to General Hu Tuo's insight in recognizing the Fire Talisman Order and the Flame Saint Son!
"Then... who was that boy next to the Flame Saint Son?" At this moment, someone asked Brother Luo again.
"That boy?" As he heard this, "Brother Luo" softly repeated the words and replied, "Since that boy is with Flame Saint Son Huo Yu, he must be some Inheritor from another Sacred Land, a Great Family, or a Great Force!"
"Anyway, this person's identity is certainly not simple."
"Hmm!"
Consequently, one by one the Black Iron Divine Soldiers silently nodded, agreeing with what "Brother Luo" had said.
Then, each of them subconsciously turned their heads, looking toward the direction of the City Lord Mansion behind them. It's as if they saw two new stars rising slowly, flashing toward the City Lord Mansion.
Today was truly a grand day for Wuchuan Wasteland City! Not only did it welcome the Divine Refiner Jiangg Ning from the Jiangg Family, but also the Flame Saint Son and a mysterious Saint Heir!
Truly a gathering of geniuses!
What kind of scene will unfold there?
It's something that these Divine Soldiers could never comprehend.
...
The grand, ancient atmosphere of the City Lord's mansion hall in Wuchuan Wasteland City.
The City Lord Chuan Mu was alone in this spacious hall, sitting high on the main seat, expressions changing unpredictably on his face, sometimes gritting his teeth full of hatred, and other times, filled with worry.
He occasionally turned his head to look at the stone wall behind him.
Behind Chuan Mu was a stone wall engraved with exquisite carvings, but it actually held secrets. At this moment, his daughter Chuan Wen and the Divine Refiner Jiangg Ning, whom he had invited at great cost, were inside that stone wall.
At this moment, the City Lord Chuan Mu seemed to recall a source of hatred, his face contorted and he spoke with resentment, "How... hateful it is! That the wronged soul won't disperse, has turned into an Evil Ghost to return! Back then, I should have shattered your soul, never to be reborn! Ah! Hateful! Hateful!"
Uttering these fierce words, Chuan Mu's fists clenched tightly, making cracking sounds as if he were about to crush his own fists.
"City Lord, General Hu Tuo requests an audience!" Suddenly, from outside the hall came the voice of the fierce man, General Hu Tuo.
"Hu Tuo? What is it, come on in quickly," Chuan Mu responded.
But at this moment, Chuan Mu was in a foul mood, his tone sounding a bit annoyed and impatient.
