Chapter 542: Come One After Another
Trantor: Law Editor: AntiGod
This was meant to be an extra busy day with a multitude of things to happen.
Ji Hao followed Si Xi and his son, Si Wen Ming, with thepany of Candle Dragon Gui and Zhu Rong. When he was getting acquainted with all those earls and marquis and human ministers, Wuzhi Qi, the real one, left the water eye of Huai Water and silently came to Pu Ban city.
Wuzhi Qi, who was tall and slim, and entirely wrapped in a denseyer of watery mist, slowly walked into Gong Gong Wuyou’s new pce. He saw the other ‘Wuzhi Qi,’ who was sealed in dark ice. He snorted coldly and slightly pointed his right forefinger on the dark ice.
The thickyer of dark ice quietly cracked, transforming into streams of watery mist which slowly drifted away. The sealed ‘Wuzhi Qi’ opened his pair of eyes that were shining dazzlingly with a fierce blood-red light, seeming to roar out in rage towards the sky. However, abruptly, he saw the real Wuzhi Qi, who was much taller than himself. The fierce light shining in his eyes dimmed down immediately, as he smilingly cupped his hands and bowed to Wuzhi Qi.
"You’re here?"
"I’m here." Two ‘Wuzhi Qi’ suddenly reached their heads forward and their necks extended to meters long. Two ape heads heavily thudded against each other, after which, within a glistering sphere of watery mist, only one Wuzhi Qi was left on the spot, as if two shadows had just merged into one.
"Hm, you have indeed caused some troubles in these few years." Wuzhi Qi narrowed his eyes as his eyes sparkled brightly, then waved his hand and continued, "But they are all small things... nothing more than killing some people, snatching some woman... no big deal."
Gong Gong Wuyou stepped forward, deeply bowed to Wuzhi Qi and said, "Master, you are here."
Wuzhi Qi raised his head, narrowed his eyes and nced at the warm sun in the sky. He gave a mild smile and said, "I’m here, so is this Prince Wuyou? I have never met you before. Today is the first time, and just as I’ve been told, you are indeed a handsome young man. I am sure that your talent is as exceptional as your physical appearance."
The middle-aged man who had invited Wuzhi Qi here walked into the hall step by step, and said smilingly, "Old monkey, you’re the most cunning one. No one knows what you have been doing deep down in the water eye of Huai Water, and you just left honest men like us out here doing all kinds of hard work. Now that you’re here, everything will be under your control."
Wuzhi Qi smiled and nodded, "That’s fine, that’s fine." Clicking his tongue, he continued, "So, tell me first, at present, among the entire humankind, how many young men can truly be counted as talents?"
Outside Fine Jade Snow Pce, water curtains rolled up into the air. The dark water curtain blocked the sky and sealed the pce inside. No voice from the hall could be transmitted to the outside anymore.
After big half an hour, a personal written instruction from Gong Gong Wuyou, came out from Fine Jade Snow Pce — From this day onwards, all Gong Gong Family’s warriors who were under the Water God’smand would listen to Wuzhi Qi’s order.
When Wuzhi Qi walked into Fine Jade Snow Pce, in Southern Wastnd Market, on the tform which was specially designed for starry spirit turtles to park, a fiery cloud suddenly tore the thickyer of clouds apart. It evaporated all the snow in a hundred miles squared area, and slowly descended down with a dazzling fiery light.
Thirty-six fire dragons roared towards the sky, gasped quickly and deeply, as they dragged a small-scale city that was around five miles in radius, and was entirely made from me divine iron, down towards the ground through the thickyer of cloud. The city was shining with a faint fiery light, and numerous sturdy men with red armors were standing on the city wall. Each of them had been releasing a strong and steady sense of power, and the great heating from their bodies made them seem like volcanos that were about to erupt.
People fromrge Southern Wastnd ns confusingly looked at this city that was slowly descending from the sky.
Not a single n could ever have so much me divine iron all at once. Therefore, they surely couldn’t possibly build such a city merely with me divine iron. Among the entire Southern Wastnd, only Zhu Rong family could have a resource of me divine iron that was great enough to allow them to afford a portable city like this.
Elders from Fire Dragon n, Fire Phoenix n and a few other powerful Southern Wastnd ns hurriedly walked over against the terrifyingly great heat released by the city, politely standing straight on the ground.
One of the city gates opened along with a deep ng, after which, a stream of fiery light flew out. Scorching hot liquid metal flew out in a stream, transforming into a stairway. The liquid metal then quickly cooled and solidified. A few strong men with strong power vibrations releasing from their bodies and faintly visible red scales on their faces walked out from the city whileughing loudly.
With surprise, elders from those powerful Southern Wastnd ns nced at these men, then hurriedly showed a thousand percent carefulness.
In Southern Wastnd, Zhu Rong family stood high above the masses, and other than the humankind, some small ns of people who possessed demigod bloodlines orplicated mixed bloodlines had also been living in the Southern Wastnd. These few men seemed to be much taller than ordinary human beings, even much taller and stronger than those Jia n big warriors. They had red scales on their faces; they were clearly mix-blood, and were from the n called ‘Fire Qi Lin n.’
Fire Qi Lin n, their people had Fire Qi Lin’s bloodline mixed with their blood. Different from other human ns, which merely inherited the power systems belonging to ancient powerful creatures, the ancestors of Fire Qi Lin n mated with ancient Fire Qi Lin, and gave birth to their mix-blooded descendants to create this n.
Fire Qi Lin n people were born with an extremely great strength and the special ability to manipteva; they had great talents in cultivation, and almost all male adults in their n could reach the level of Divine Magus. The only weakness of their n was the difficulty of procreation, because of which, the entire Fire Qi Lin n only had the poption of less than thirty-thousand. But apart from this, Fire Qi Lin n could be counted as a perfect n.
With the total poption of less than thirty-thousand people, the number of adult males was over two thousand. In other words, Fire Qi Lin n, this small n, had over two-thousand Divine Magi.
Besides, same as Ji n warriors, Fire Qi Lin n warriors could definitely suppress same-level warriors in terms of power, which meant, a Divine Magus who came from Fire Qi Lin n could at least rival three-to-five same-level human Divine Magi at the same time. Nevertheless, how small were the numbers of Divine Magi elders of thoserge Southern Wastnd ns who stayed in their n and were free to move?
If the territory range of Fire Qi Lin n wasn’t limited by generations of leaders of Zhu Rong family, and if Fire Qi Lin n people were allowed to live in areas other than the surrounding area of Zhu Rong Mountain, they would have suppressed or even upied ns like the Fire Dragon n, Fire Phoenix n long ago.
Same as the other few mix-blooded ns that possessed demigod bloodlines, Fire Qi Lin n people had been kept in the Southern Wastnd by Zhu Rong family as their important properties. Therefore, normally, one could hardly see them walking out there. But today, a few strong men from Fire Qi Lin n abruptly showed up, and the elders from the Fire Dragon n and the other ns had nearly lost their heads, not knowing what to do.
Which Lord from Zhu Rong family came from Southern Wastnd who could make such an impressive disy of power and influence?
A heavy series of footstep came next, and soon, a troop of Fire Qi Lin n warriors walked out in an ordered array. Following behind them wererge groups of beautiful young boys and girls, wearing red robes and carrying trays or bottles made of jade or gold,nterns moon-shaped fans and other ritual objects, slowly walking out.
A few Fire Luan flew across the sky in above, opened their beaks and sprayed a wave of petals of fire star thoroughwort. Instantly, the air was suffused by an amazing aroma.
The group of Southern Wastnd n elders were all dumbfounded. In their eyes, only legendary ancient heaven Gods could make such a great scene.
After quite a long while, troops of warriors moved out, and over ten-thousand young boys and girls walked out in groups, lined up orderly on the tform. After all this, finally, Zhu Rong Tianming, who was surrounded by over thirty powerful Fire Qi Lin n warriors, proudly walked out of the city gate with big steps.
Raising his head and looking at the sky, Zhu Rong Tianming couldn’t help but praise, "So this is Pu Ban city? And this is the heavy snow I’ve been told about? Indeed interesting!"
All Fire Qi Lin n warriors surrounding him knelt down simultaneously, growling loudly and politely, "Prince Tianming!"
The group of Southern Wastnd n elders hurriedly knelt as well, all trying extremely hard to think about the source of this title, ‘Prince Tianming.’
Suddenly, these elders popped out their eyes and felt like being enlightened — It was him, the seventh son of the present Fire God! The prince who was a demigod, given birth by the Fire God Zhu Rong and a human woman!
