The vice-chairman shook his head and said: "It's not very clear yet, what happened in the Dark City shocked the entire high-level of the Sunset Empire, the emperor personally ordered and sent trusted ministers to deal with the matter there, and all news was blocked. The Thieves Guild only got the news, and they don’t know the details. In my opinion, we can only wait for the news.”
The Lord said: "It has been such a long time, have you found the descendant of Pluto?"
The vice president said with some embarrassment: "Our own people, and people from the Thieves Union are all looking for it, but the kid seems to have disappeared into thin air, and there is no news at all."
A cold light flashed in the Lord's eyes, and he said coldly: "A group of trash, that kid is not important, what is important is the Pluto sword on his body, you should be very clear about how much the Pluto sword can bring us, and send more manpower immediately If you want to see a person, if you want to see a dead body, find him as soon as possible."
The vice president wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his one arm, and repeatedly agreed. He is the clearest about the master's fear. After losing an arm, his skills have been greatly reduced, and he has lost a lot of use value. If he can't find the disciple of the king of the underworld, it is very likely that the master will find a reason to kill himself. Kicked down from the current position, even killed himself, in order to save his life, this time no matter what he said, he had to find the trace of that kid.
Does the Thieves Guild really not know the specific news about the Dark City? Of course not, as the most well-informed group on the mainland, how could they not be clear about such a big matter.
Mie Feng was holding the reports of her subordinates in her room, her eyes flickering coldly. When she received this news two days ago, she became murderous. According to the news, among those who died in the dark city, a large part of them turned into mummies. It quickly reminded her of the death of her fourth uncle. Only the Pluto sword can cause such a result. After half a year, there is finally news of the murderer who killed the fourth uncle, and he is in the sunset empire. It is time to take revenge. She clearly knew that the Killer Guild was also looking for Dumb's whereabouts, so she only reported part of the situation to her father, and concealed the specific details on the grounds that the Sunset Empire blocked the news. Only when no one else knows the news can he secretly seek revenge. He gathered the note in his hand into a ball, and under the burst of fighting spirit, it turned into a pile of powder.
"Hmph! You are the murderer who killed Fourth Uncle. I will never let you live again. Just wait. I will definitely kill you to comfort Fourth Uncle's spirit in heaven."
In the hall of light of the Holy See.
Xuan Ye and his father-in-law, another priest in red, Nayan, watched the information from the Sunset Empire together. The Holy See is not engaged in production and is maintained entirely by donations from believers. The royal family of the Sunset Empire donates tens of millions of gold coins every year, and the sum of the other three countries cannot reach this amount. largest source of income. It's not that they don't know about the rampant dark forces of the Sunset Empire, but for the sake of the Holy See's better development, they have to turn a blind eye and close their eyes, pretending not to know, not to mention, although those dark forces are very powerful in the Sunset Empire, Rampant, but judging from the information they received, those forces could not threaten the Holy See at all, so they were allowed to go.
Na Yan murmured: "It is impossible for a golden divine light to appear in the dark city. Even those of us who are closest to God have never seen the divine light. How could it appear there? Could it be that it really is Are the gods appearing to warn us?" The other two red-clothed priests were not in the Holy See, so the information naturally fell into the hands of him and Xuan Ye. Nayan has always been in charge of the affairs of the Sunset Empire, and he was naturally nervous when such a big event happened.
Xuan Ye has never had a good impression of the Sunset Empire. He frowned and said, "It shouldn't be a miracle, otherwise, how could we feel it? Hundreds of square kilometers have been razed to the ground. If we join hands and add white-clothed priests Support, the forbidden curse issued can also achieve this effect. Could it be man-made? The Sunset Empire should indeed be punished. A few days ago, through the Sacrifice Hall of Sunset City, I ordered the Emperor Quanyi of the Sunset Empire to arrest him. The elves who left were released, but they actually refused to admit it to me, saying that they had never seen any elves appearing at all. Hmph, these guys are too arrogant now. If it weren’t for the Holy See’s economic need for them, I would have supported Hua The Sheng Empire will completely destroy this despicable race."
As soon as he mentioned this matter, he became angry. Quan Yi, the emperor of the Sunset Empire, didn't seem to take himself seriously at all.
Na Yan is very satisfied with her son-in-law. Xuan Ye is not only the son of the Pope, but also his own strength is admired by everyone. He has reached the status of a priest in red at a young age. He is the most likely candidate to inherit the position of Pope. Knowing that he fell in love with her daughter, Nayan smiled even when she was sleeping, "Well, Ye'er, don't be impulsive, and be more prudent when things happen. What you said earlier makes sense. However, this matter should not be that simple ... must be handled with caution."
A cold light flashed in Xuan Ye's eyes, and he said coldly: "Although I don't know how the divine light appeared, I know who did it when the City Lord's Mansion was washed with blood." , Dumb, what kind of god of death do you call yourself, hum! I remember I told you at the beginning, if you use the Pluto sword to do evil things, I will definitely not let you go, even the Sword Master of Tiangang can't protect you.
Na Yan asked in surprise, "Do you know who did it?"
Xuan Ye nodded and said, "Father-in-law, I want to visit the Sunset Empire. Let me handle this matter for you."
Na Yan frowned, and said, "Should we report such an important matter to the Pope before making a decision."
Xuan Ye's heart moved, and he woke up from his anger. He remembered Yueyue's words. Yueyue said that dumb is the savior, can he move him? Regardless of whether Dumb is really the savior or not, his father would never allow himself to touch him until he figured it out. It has been more than half a year, and Yueyue has been in seclusion. Although his father did not say how Yueyue is progressing, it can be seen from the excitement on his face when he saw his father several times that Yueyue must be making rapid progress. All the Pope's thoughts were on Yueyue. If I deal with Dumb now, my father will definitely be very angry. With a flash of inspiration, Xuan Ye suddenly remembered that his father had ordered the four holy judges to monitor Dumb, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Father-in-law, let's talk about this matter first, you use us in the Dark City Let’s calm down the hearts of the people first. I’ll go to the court.”
Na Yan said in surprise: "What? You're going to find that guy Xuan Yuan, don't you know his temper?"
Xuan Ye smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know, he doesn't give face to anyone except my father, but after all, he is my uncle, and I work for the Holy See, so it should be fine." The news was passed to the pope and the presiding judge, and the pope has been supervising Xuanyue's practice now, and there was no one at all, so he had to go to the presiding judge.
Xuan Yuan is the presiding judge of the Holy See Inquisition and the Pope's younger brother. He disappeared suddenly when he was three years old, and he didn't return to the Holy See until he was over forty years old. With his superhuman ability, he took over the position of presiding judge. Xuan Ye would rather face the most evil enemy than face his own uncle. Xuan Yuan's personality is extremely withdrawn. Unless something important happens, he rarely leaves the Holy See, and no one dares to approach him. The general affairs of the court are handled by two deputy judges, and he just quietly in the secret room In practice, no one is seen except the Pope. In the Holy See, although he is nominally offering sacrifices to Qiping with Hong Yi, Xuan Ye is deeply aware that his uncle, who is over seventy years old, has only the most powerful martial arts among the people he has ever seen. Second to the Sword Saint of Tiangang, far surpassing the strength of the four priests in red. If it weren't for the fact that this matter involved Duan who might be the savior, Xuan Ye would never want to see his uncle.
Na Yan chuckled, and said: "Since you are not afraid of running into trouble, go ahead and leave this matter to you. I am also getting older, so I need to think about being happy for a few more days. By the way, I haven't seen the moon for more than half a year." It's been a month, is she still practicing in closed doors? The Pope is really serious, Yueyue is just sixteen years old, let her work so hard, what should I do if she is exhausted." He has always loved his granddaughter the most. When my daughter was young, in order for her to occupy a place in the Holy See, she was too strict with Nasha. For this granddaughter, Na Yan poured out almost all her feelings, which made Nasha often jealous of her daughter.
Xuan Ye sighed, why didn't he miss his daughter? Nasha had already mentioned several times that she wanted to see her daughter, but how could she say so to her father. "Father keeps Yueyue's affairs very secret, even I don't know the specific situation, it seems that we have to wait. Father-in-law, you go to rest first, I will go to find uncle now." After finishing speaking, Xiang Nayan After saluting, he left the Guangming Hall.
After leaving the Hall of Light, Xuan Ye walked to the northeast of the court alone. The court was built next to several halls of the Holy See, and thousands of judges lived in the court.
"Ah! Isn't this the cardinal? What wind brought you here." A clear voice sounded.
Xuan Ye looked intently, and saw that it was Babulun, one of the two deputy presiding judges of the court, who was known as the blade god. Babulun was about the same age as Xuan Ye, and was the son of the previous presiding judge. The two had grown up together since childhood. We have grown up together, and we have a very close relationship. He is about 1.7 meters tall and has an ordinary appearance, but he has extraordinary skills. He is good at using a bright short blade, and his skills are extremely strong. At the age of 37, he relied on With his own strength, he stepped into the position of deputy presiding judge and is the best successor candidate for the next presiding judge.
Xuan Ye walked towards his old friend, and said with a smile, "Why, old man, don't you welcome me?"
Baburun laughed and looked at his best friend, "Why don't you welcome me. Since you became a cardinal, we have spent much less time together. Let's have a drink together when we have time."
Xuan Ye said: "I was afraid that you would not succeed. You have been busy a lot since you became the deputy presiding judge. You have been so busy that you can't be free now."
Babulun spread his hands and said helplessly: "There is no way! There are too many things, and our Lord Judge is too lazy to deal with it. Only Uncle Feng and I are busy."
Xuan Ye smiled and said: "Let's go, take me to my uncle's place of meditation, I have something to do with his old man."
Babulun frowned slightly, and said, "Brother, I didn't hit you. Although you are the nephew of the chief judge, he may not meet you. Do you want to hit a snag?"
Xuan Ye smiled wryly and said, "If it wasn't for something very important, you think I would come to see my uncle! I still don't know his temper? Let's go, I'll bite the bullet and I'll do it too!"
Babulun laughed and said: "Since you are not afraid, then I will take you there, I really want to see how you look deflated."
Xuan Ye said angrily: "You are the deputy presiding judge, and you still have a childish temper." The two walked towards the interior of the court together, and gradually sank into the tall building.
While walking, Xuan Ye suddenly asked: "By the way, how are my sister-in-law and my godson doing? I haven't seen them for a long time."
Babulun looked around and saw that no one noticed him, so he smiled wryly: "You don't know your sister-in-law's temper, but it's hard for me! The past few days have been arguing with me again, which makes me feel uneasy of."
Xuan Ye whispered: "Didn't she get kicked out of bed by sister-in-law again?"
Old Baburun blushed and said, "What do you think? I don't know how many times this is. I can't do anything about her. Be careful with her every day. She always picks on me?" He is a strict wife, and he was very famous in the Holy See when he was young. There are countless goddesses who like him, but he fell in love with a girl who is not a member of the church when he was performing a mission. , but people ignored him at all, and didn't take him as a young hero of the Holy See's generation at all. Later, he found out that this girl was actually the daughter of a great nobleman in the Guangming Empire, so he begged his father, and the presiding judge of the Holy See at that time went out to ask for marriage in person. After a lot of hard work, everyone was finally welcome back. After marrying back the love in his heart, Babulun naturally cherishes him very much, but he seems to have no affection for him at all, no matter how he pleases him, he will not give him a good face. Married for 20 years, he was a glorious deputy judge outside Babulun, but once he returned to his home, he became his wife's slave. Almost everyone in the Holy See knew about his wife-phobia, and was made a laughingstock. But Babylon didn't care, his love for his wife was old and strong, as long as his wife wanted something, he would definitely do it for her. The two have a son, who is nineteen years old this year. He has inherited his mother's appearance and his father's martial arts talent, and he is already well-known in the court.
Xuan Ye shook his head helplessly, thinking, it's better to be his own wife! "You've been married for so many years, but sister-in-law's temper hasn't changed at all?"
Baburon shook his head dejectedly, and said: "You know, it was all my wishful thinking at the beginning, she didn't have any feelings for me at all, even though it's been so long, I never felt that she liked me. But, the more she behaves like this , the more I want to treat her better, when, if she can really like me, I will let it go even if I die."
Seeing Babulun's sad look, Xuan Ye quickly changed the subject, and said, "Where is my godson? How is his skill now?" The two families are good friends, so Babulun's son naturally recognized Xuan Ye as his son. Father, and Xuan Yue also recognized Babulun as her godfather. Babulun likes Xuanyue very much, and is eager for her to marry his son as soon as possible. When Xuanye asked, he hurriedly said: "Is the son I taught not good enough? My little thing is almost I have passed it on to him, but now it is just not ready. Last year, the judge personally guided him for a month. This is an honor that even I have never received! From now on, this kid's future will definitely be higher than mine. By the way, how is Yueyue? I haven't seen that girl for a long time, and I still miss her."
Xuan Ye didn't know what Babulun meant, and said with a smile: "The girl is now practicing with the Pope, and she has been in seclusion for more than half a year?"
Baburun smiled and said: "When did this girl change her sex, but that's fine, you and the Pope are the leaders of our Holy See, it would be a pity if Yueyue couldn't inherit your divine power. The children are all grown up. We're getting old, and we're getting old too. How did you think about what I told you last time? Shouldn't you decide on the marriage of the child first? My silly boy is just like me back then. He's obsessed with your Yueyue family. It's terrible, I told me a long time ago that I will not marry unless Yueyue."
Xuan Ye smiled wryly in his heart, how could he tell Babulun about the relationship between his daughter and dumb, he could only hope that his daughter would forget about that silly boy after practicing with her father. "The children are still too young. My Yueyue is only sixteen years old. I am not willing to marry her off so early? Why are you so anxious!"
Baburon smiled and said: "Can I not be in a hurry? Yueyue is so beautiful, and there will be fewer people chasing her in the future! I don't care. Although there is no rush to get married, you can always get engaged first. I will take it as your promise." .”
Xuan Ye smiled and said: "You, you are so old, you are still like a child, I didn't agree to you, wait until I go back and discuss with Nasha. Besides, Yueyue has to agree. I I won't force my daughter to do things she doesn't want to do." He is actually willing to marry Baburon, but in this situation, how can he agree.
Baburun said with some dissatisfaction: "My silly boy is not good enough for your Yueyue, and he pushes back and forth."
Xuan Ye said: "Ah! Here we are, this is the place where my uncle meditates." At this time, the two of them had already walked to a garden at the end of the Holy See. At the end of the garden was a lonely small house. Made of solid granite.
Baburun stopped in his tracks, with a look of fear on his face, "Go by yourself, I can't stand the temper of the presiding judge."
Xuan Ye shook his head helplessly, and walked towards the small house alone, about ten meters away from the room, he could clearly feel the slightly undulating huge energy in the room, he couldn't help secretly marveling in his heart, and said in a respectful voice: "Red priest Xuan Ye, please see the Lord Judge." Although the two have the same rank in the Holy See, Xuan Ye respects this uncle no less than he respects his father, the Pope. He wrapped his voice with the magical power of the light system, and slowly sent it into the room, and the energy in the room suddenly converged. A low voice sounded, "Who told you to disturb me, don't you know I'm cultivating?" The voice was low and cold, without any emotion, as if the presiding judge didn't even know that the person standing outside was himself nephew.
Xuan Ye's mind trembled slightly in the low voice, his heart was awe-inspiring, and he hurriedly mobilized the divine power in his body to protect his whole body, "My lord, Xuan Ye came here this time to inquire about something important."
The deep voice sounded again, "Speak, I hope the important things you said can satisfy me."
The corners of Xuan Ye's mouth trembled slightly, "It's like this. About half a year ago, His Excellency the Pope issued an order for four holy judges to monitor a person. Recently, the Holy See suddenly received information from the Sunset Empire. The Mansion of the Lord of the Dark City was bloodbathed. From the death of those people in the mansion, I judged that it was the person supervised by the Holy Judge. Therefore, I came here to ask you where the Holy Judge is now. "
"Those guys in the Dark City should have died a long time ago. What are you meddling with? Only the Pope can command the Holy Judge. What are you asking me for? Leave quickly."
Xuan Ye said anxiously: "However, the holy judge will send back some news every once in a while, and these news should be in your hands."
"This matter is nothing important, don't bother me anymore." A surge of energy came out from the room through the wall, and Xuan Ye was shocked, and the energy had already been sent out, falling on the ground. Beside Baburon, although he was protected by the divine power, he still felt out of breath. My uncle is really unreasonable!
Babulun sniggered in a low voice, and he seemed very happy to see Xuan Ye hit a snag. Xuan Ye glared at him, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said loudly: "Mr. Judge, I met the Sword Master of Tiangang a few days ago and fought against him. Don't you want to know the details?" He deeply knows that his uncle's only hobby is to practice martial arts, and the Four Great Sword Masters have always been his goal. He once said that when he is eighty years old, he should be able to reach the level of the Four Great Sword Masters. degree.
Sure enough, Xuan Ye's words had an effect, the door that had been closed tightly opened, and a figure flashed out from the door. It seemed that in just a split second, there was another person in front of Xuan Ye. This person is wearing a white robe, his hair and beard are messy, his skin is as delicate as a baby, and his pair of red phoenix eyes are opening and closing, shooting cold light. It is Xuan Yuan, the presiding judge of the Holy See. He stands one foot in front of Xuan Ye, Said lightly: "Have you seen the Sword Master of Tiangang? Tell me what he looks like."
Xuan Ye felt that his whole body was bound by the surging energy, and the huge pressure kept frightening his mind. He looked at his uncle and said: "More than half a year ago, His Excellency ordered the four holy judges to monitor Before that person, I went to Tiangang Mountain, where I met the long-known Tiangang Sword Master. He looked about the same age as me. Except for his white hair, he looked like a middle-aged man People. His skills are terrifying. With a wave of his hand, he can use the clouds and mist in the mountains as his own weapon, and penetrate a hole in a mountain peak far away. I lost, and I lost without a chance to chant the spell , He is the strongest fighter I have ever seen. His Excellency the Pope said that in a one-on-one situation, there is no one in the world who can match him." The whole body relaxed, and the huge pressure suddenly disappeared. Xuan Yuan put his hands behind his back, his eyes flashed with light, and his eyes were a little confused, as if he was imagining the scene when Xuan Ye saw the Tiangang Sword Saint, and sighed softly, "It seems that I am still not as good as him Ah! The gap is too great."
Xuan Ye saw that his uncle didn't seem to be as unkind as before, so he hurriedly said: "The four holy judges sent by the pope to monitor are the reincarnated disciples of the Sword Master of Tiangang, and he also has the sword of the world's most evil Hades on him, so , I just came to ask you about the whereabouts of the holy judge. Many people died in the dark city this time. We must find out the situation clearly."
Xuan Yuan glanced at Xuan Ye, and said: "The news came back a few days ago that those who were killed by the person under surveillance were all damned. He is still in the Sunset Empire. And this person has a very strong Ability. At a young age, fighting spirit has reached a very high level. According to the report of the holy judge, his skill is not inferior to any holy judge, even without the Pluto sword. At the same time, this People also have strong magical abilities, and they actually summoned two dragons, a giant dragon with silvery golden eyes, and a bone dragon. The miraculous light in the dark city may also have been created by them. It can be obtained from Thousands of troops rushed out of the dark city, and I was surprised. I didn't expect that a reincarnated disciple of the Tiangang Sword Master would have such abilities." It turns out that the four holy judges had been secretly protecting Duan and others , when they were besieged by Horton and fell into a desperate situation, the Holy Inquisitor was ready to take action, but Dumb suddenly summoned two giant dragons, which temporarily dissuaded them. Later, when Dumb and others were besieged by thousands of troops , They were watching not far away, until Shengxie released the Dragon Curse, the four of them could not escape and could only huddle together, relying on their own strong strength, they jointly resisted the attack like a forbidden curse, barely kept Killed, but also severely injured. They were the only ones who survived the golden devour of the Dragon Curse. Originally, they had lost sight of Dumb and the others, but later Dumb returned to the Dark City for revenge, and they were targeted again.
Xuan Ye lost his voice: "What? Summoning a giant dragon, this, how is this possible? Summoning magic has long been lost, and there is no record of the possibility of summoning a dragon in the ancient books of the Holy See!"
Xuan Yuan snorted coldly, "The facts are in front of us. This young man who calls himself the god of death has indeed summoned a dragon, and it's two ends."
Chills rose in Xuan Ye's heart. Could it be that everything Yueyue said was true, is Duan really the savior of the millennium catastrophe? Otherwise, how could he summon such a powerful creature as a dragon. Thinking of the agreement he had made with the Sword Master of Tiangang, he lost confidence for the first time. Although his ability was superb, the dragon he had never seen before was beyond his imagination. "Thank you, Lord Judge, I will immediately report this matter to His Excellency the Pope, and ask him to make a decision."
Xuan Yuan turned around and turned his back to Xuan Ye, "No need, he already knew."
Xuan Ye was taken aback, and just about to say something, a white figure suddenly appeared beside Xuan Yuan, "Yes, I already knew about it." The person who came was Xuan Ye's father, the current pope.
Babulun and Xuan Ye hurriedly said respectfully: "I have seen His Excellency the Pope."
The pope smiled slightly and said: "They are all from our own people, so there is no need to be polite. I was also shocked by this incident. It seems that everything Yueyue said is true. Although Duan killed many people this time, just as The presiding judge said that those are people whose souls have been corrupted by darkness. This incident will not shake the foundation of the Sunset Empire. Although they are very helpful to the Holy See economically, we will never support their dark forces , let them solve this matter by themselves. As for the savior, it is better to let him develop on his own. The local forces have calmed the hearts of the people."
Xuan Ye hurriedly said: "Yes, His Excellency the Pope."
The pope said: "Okay, go down, I still have something to say with the presiding judge." Xuan Ye and Babulun looked at each other, saluted and retreated. Looking at their leaving figures, the Pope said, "Brother, are you still so obsessed?"
Xuan Yuan said lightly: "Martial skills are the only goal I pursue. My wish is to defeat the four great sword masters. You should know that."
The Pope sighed, and said, "Actually, your current skill, except for the Tiangang Sword Master, should be almost the same as the other three Sword Masters. Why are you bothering?"
Xuan Yuan said: "However, the Sword Master of Tiangang is my goal. If he can do it, I can do it too. Brother, you don't have to persuade me."
The Pope sighed and said, "Go out and relax, don't you want to go and see that young man?"
Xuan Yuan's body shook, and he said, "Are you willing to let me leave the Holy See?"
The Pope nodded and said, "You've stayed in the Holy See long enough, it's good to go out for a walk. However, you should know that it's too early to challenge the Four Great Juggernauts with your current skill. I don't want to hear I heard the news of your death. That kid named Dumb, I hope you go and see for yourself. If he is really the savior, I think you should be the driving force to stimulate his potential."
