Lord Sovereign - Chapter 98
He couldn’t refine those ice jelly stones now, but the only thing he could use now was the mysterious titan thorne. Moreover, he destroyed Bai Xiaoxiao’s weapon half a year ago and wanted to refine another one for her. Handle the weapon in hand.
“How to get there?” Mu Shuang took a step forward, looking at Fei Hong and asked.
At this moment, Mu Shuang was no more than a foot away from Fei Hong, and Fei Hong could clearly see those charming eyes in the dark. Coupled with the body scent from Mu Shuang’s body, it made Fei Hong a little fascinated.
“That…” Fei Hong didn’t know how to get there, and hurriedly turned his head to look at the rushing river with a wry smile.
Suddenly, Fei Hong saw a dark shadow drifting past the distance of the river. He hurriedly pointed to Mu Shuang, “What is that? It looks like a human figure.”
After that, Fei Hong walked two steps forward to the river, and saw the dark shadow drifting over. Mu Shuang on one side snorted coldly, and threw the long whip in her hand into the river with a “pop”, which happened to be wrapped around the dark shadow and slowly pulled over.
Fei Hong held the Dragon palms nervously to prevent any unforseen incidents.
When the black shadow slowly drew in front of the two of them, their eyes met, and he was extremely surprised: the black shadow was a dead body. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the elder Li who was chasing Yunzhuang.
When they were on the ground, Fei Hong and Mu Shuang had seen Elder Li seem to have been dragged down by the swamp, while the two female disciples under them seemed to have seen something and went straight to chase after him. Unexpectedly, within a few hours, Elder Li turned out to be a corpse.
Fei Hong took out the titan thorne and cut off Elder Li’s coat, wanting to check where the wound was. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened it, there was only an empty skeleton left under Elder Li’s clothes.
“Oh…” Mu Shuang couldn’t help retching upon seeing this scene.
Fei Hong also felt a little apprehensive. Apart from anything else, they needed to cover the body. He slammed his Dragon Palm into the river beach, blasting out a big hole in it. He kicked Elder Li’s body in with a shove, and buried it.
“Who killed him?” Mu Shuang muttered to herself as she watched Fei Hong burying Elder Li.
Before Fei Hong could reply, the river surface suddenly changed.
They saw countless whirlpools on the river slowly rushing towards a point, making a huge deafening sound in the darkness. Fei Hong and Mu Shuang involuntarily took a step back, looking at the scene on the river.
Not long after, the countless large and small vortexes on the river surface combined into a huge vortex with a diameter of several meters. It looked like a big dark mouth, about to swallow everything in front of them.
And something that surprised them even more was that with the formation of this huge vortex, the water level was dropping rapidly.
This was a big mouth. A big mouth that was swallowing the river.
Fei Hong and Mu Shuang’s eyes widened, looking at the dwindling river in front of them. Finally, after a few seconds, this wide underground river disappeared, leaving only the riverbank and the dry riverbed.
“This…” Fei Hong had never seen this scene before. When the place became quiet, he took two steps forward, standing on the edge of the river and looked down.
At this sight, Fei Hong took a breath. Just on the riverbed, several feet high, were several large and small square buildings. There were no windows, no doors, and the squares looked like they were tombs.
Mu Shuang also saw this scene. “This is?”
The two looked at each other and walked towards the bottom of the river together. Not long after, the two of them stood on the riverbed, looking at the smallest square in front of them, which was more than one foot high and three feet wide.
In the dark, these things looked like wooden boxes. On closer inspection, these squares were made of blue bricks, because they had been soaked in water for a long time, and the surface was very smooth.
Fei Hong stretched out his hand and gently touched the bluestone wall. The surface was extremely cold, and he hurriedly retracted his hand.
At this time, the cyan beads on Fei Hong’s chest flashed suddenly. Mu Shuang didn’t pay attention, but Fei Hong was overjoyed: It seemed that the minerals should be nearby.
“Pa pa pa pa…”
Just as Fei Hong was about to look around, there was a rush of footsteps in the darkness in the distance.
“Hide first.” Mu Shuang whispered. She couldn’t allow Fei Hong to hesitate, and so pulled Fei Hong aside to hide.
Soon, the sound of footsteps reached the river.
“Hey, Master, there is a dry river here.”
Fei Hong frowned when he heard this voice. It belonged to Luo Dong. The master he was talking about was the elder Han from Luoyegu. That was right. But it only sounded like the footsteps and voices of two people. If he guessed correctly, the other one should be dead.
“Yeah.” Elder Han also walked to the river and looked to Hezhong: “Huh? It’s really easy to come by. If I guessed it correctly, this should be the Tomb of King Wu.”
Tomb of King Wu? Fei Hong glanced at Mu Shuang for unknown reasons. When he saw Mu Shuang shook her head slightly in response, he didn’t ask anything, and listened to the conversation between the two with his ears up.
“There are only those two little girls left from Yun Zhuang. It’s not enough to be afraid.” Elder Han said, and continued. “On the Sacred Sect side, that Fang Wei is probably seriously injured. Zhang Long is not much better. For Mu Shuang, I haven’t seen her all this time. Only Fei Hong is left, which is a bit tricky.. These people have been introduced by us, and they will all die here in a while.”
