Chapter 455 - Concealment
As the night fell, two bonfires were lit on the island.
In the center of one of the bonfires, Tang Huan, Gu Ying and Qiu Jian were sitting around a circle, while Xiao Budian had a full stomach and was fast asleep on his feet.
Not far away, a dozen young men sat around another bonfire, while Flamewing Phoenix King sat cross-legged on a huge rock that was dozens of meters away on the sh.o.r.e of the ocean. Her face was calm, and the ma.s.sacre that happened in the evening had completely vented all of the anger she had acc.u.mulated within her chest.
"Feiyun?"
Tang Huan was a little surprised as he looked at Gu Ying and Qiu Jian, "You guys want to go to Feiyun city as well?"
Gu Ying slowly nodded his head and said in a heavy voice, "Actually, this trip of ours was under the orders of Your Highness w.a.n.g. He thought that his whereabouts would be a secret, but to think that he would still be exposed. I had originally thought that they had inadvertently broken through Xing Zang"s secret. However, upon thinking about it, it is clear that they have already been waiting here. "
"Perhaps, the news was already leaked before you set off."
Tang Huan frowned, "According to what I know, the Demon Clan Draconians live in the southern part of the Origin Continent and in the sea area between the Origin Continent and the Tranquil Continent. spiritual storehouse
")"
Before this, Tang Huan had once met the Demon Clan Draconian.
When they were ambushed and a.s.sa.s.sinated outside the Crescent City, the Sha Long Empire Draconians fought fiercely against Tang Xiong and the others. Those fellows had long been hiding within the ocean of anger. After that a.s.sa.s.sination attempt, they did not leave, and in the end, were all exterminated by the Human Clan army.
The Goblin Sea was a land that only the Origin Continent and the Glory Continent could pa.s.s through, it could stir up wind and rain there. However, the sea area between the Origin Continent and the Goblin King had no value in hiding, the Goblin King obviously came here to deal with Gu Ying and the others.
Furthermore, only by leaving at the same time as Gu Ying and the rest would the Draconians be able to ambush them.
"It"s really like that, could it be that our Human Allied Forces has spies?"
Gu Ying and Qiu Jian had obviously thought of the same thing. After quickly exchanging glances, Qiu Jian asked in a somewhat bewildered and uncertain manner.
"How is this possible?" Gu Ying subconsciously shook his head, "The ones who know about our trip were only the three generals of the Human Allied Forces, how could they be spies?"
"..."
Qiu Jian was speechless. Indeed, the possibility of the commander of the Human Allied Forces becoming a spy for the Demon Clan was close to zero, but how did the news leak out?
"Big Brother Gu Ying, Big Brother Qiu Jian, Your Highness Sunlight King has sent you guys to the Flying Cloud City. Is there any important mission?" Tang Huan asked somewhat curiously.
"Brother Tang Huan, there"s no harm in telling you this."
The two of them looked at each other, and then, Gu Ying immediately moved closer to Tang Huan"s ear. He was just about to speak, but seemed to have thought of something, and quickly lowered his voice: "If we speak here, will she hear us?"
With that, Gu Ying pointed to the Flamewing Phoenix King in the distance.
That terrifyingly strong "Tian Clan woman" caused both him and Qiu Jian to be extremely afraid. They even faintly guessed in their hearts that she was most likely the Stage Nine Law Saint of the Tian Clan, for such a strong pract.i.tioner, even if they were tens of metres away, they would still be able to clearly hear the sound of things.
"Don"t worry, even if she heard it, she wouldn"t leak it." Tang Huan smiled slightly.
"Then I"ll say it."
Seeing Tang Huan"s confident expression, both Gu Ying and Qiu Jian were a little skeptical. However, Gu Ying knew that Tang Huan was not a person who would speak without thinking, and after a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Qiu Jian and I discovered a huge magic essence stone vein at the Two Realms Plain"s side. The quality of the magic essence stones produced there are extremely high, almost all of them being above Heaven Ranked, and many of them are even at the Holy-Ranked level."
After a slight pause, Gu Ying added, "If all of them are extracted, I estimate that the number of Saint rank demon essence stones will exceed 5000."
"5000 Saint rank demon essence stones?"
Tang Huan gasped. All along, he had only had high quality demon essence stones in the Holy Spirit Continent. He never thought that the Two Realms Plain would also have them. In this instant, Tang Huan realized that this kind of vein would definitely have an extremely fatal attraction towards a Tian Clan.
"Aside from us, only our Suns.h.i.+ne King"s Your Highness knows about this demon essence stone mine. Even the commanders of the Sha Long Empire and the Mo Yun Empire do not know about it."
"Regarding this mission, royal Your Highness only told Sha Long and the commander of the two Mo Yun s that he was sending us to the Flying Cloud City to exchange the "Golden Silkworm Spirit Dew" with the Tian Clan for a few precious ingredients to be gifted to His Majesty, the Great Ancestor Emperor, in order to forge the Divine Armament." Gu Ying continued, "The other brothers on the s.h.i.+p also thought that this was our mission, and did not know that our real mission was actually related to that mine."
"Oh?"
Tang Huan nodded, and asked subconsciously, "Your Highness Sunlight is planning to use that vein?"
Currently, the number of gems Glory Continent and Origin Continent could find were becoming fewer and fewer, and the demon essence stones of Holy Spirit Continent were probably no exception. The effect of such a large vein of demon essence stones on Tian Clan could be imagined.
If they knew about this mine, all of the Tian Clan mages would have their eyes turned red.
"I"m not sure about that."
Gu Ying shook his head, "I have a letter that royal Your Highness wrote to the Great Clan Elder. According to what Your Highness w.a.n.g thinks, it should be written on it. " Speaking to here, Gu Ying laughed. With this vein, even if he called for Tian Clan to join forces and attack Demon Clan, Tian Clan would probably agree.
"Your Highness Sunlight King, don"t tell me that he wants to borrow the Demon Source Stone lode to join hands with the Tian Clan and attack the Demon Clan together?" Tang Huan"s heart was moved.
However, the Tian Clan had always been outside of it, and always had been powerful. If the Human Clan and the Tian Clan united, it would be impossible to exterminate the Demon Clan, but to be able to completely destroy it, it would take thousands or even hundreds of years.
"This..."
Gu Ying and Qiu Jian looked at each other.
"Forget it, we will take care of such a big matter according to Your Highness w.a.n.g. We just need to be in charge of delivering the letter and we can be considered as having completed the mission."
After a while, Gu Ying waved his hand and laughed, then looked at Tang Huan with some antic.i.p.ation and said, "Brother Tang Huan, since we are both going to the Cloud Sky City, why don"t we go together tomorrow. With you here, even if there are more Demon Clan ahead to intercept us, we don"t have to worry."
"Sure, let"s go to the Flying Cloud City together."
"Great!" Gu Ying laughed and said loudly, "Brothers, from now on, the Tang Huan Brothers will set off with us. With brother Tang Huan, this expert, everyone"s lives do not need to be worried."
"..."
Hearing his words, Tang Huan laughed, while the other dozens of young men beside the bonfire exclaimed out in excitement. When they looked at Tang Huan, they found it hard to hide the admiration and admiration in their eyes. Dozens of meters away, the Flamewing Phoenix King couldn"t help but pout her red lips.
