Chapter 537: Hot Steam Profound

Translator: 549690339

The sky was gray, and white dust fell from the sky and landed on the black team.

In the crowd, children who were less than the height of an adult’s knee curiously picked up the dust and wanted to lick it with their tongues, but they were slapped away by their silent father.

“Father, is this snow?”

The eyes of the children in ragged clothes were sparkling, which was worlds apart from those of adult human slaves.

It was obvious that they had not realized their most tragic fate on this continent.

The skinny man whose head was covered in the dust shook his head, indicating that he did not know either.

He raised his head with difficulty and saw the City of Bones not far away, as if it was a monster that was ready to devour people.

On the way, two Orsaide soldiers were chatting.

Surprisingly, when they looked at the large groups of human slaves, there was no contempt in their eyes. Instead, there was sympathy.

“How many batches is this? During the week we were on duty, there must have been millions of natives who entered the City of Bones, right? Could such a small city accommodate so many natives?”

As the lieutenants of the imperial army, they were only ordered to guard the intersection outside the city and maintain order. As for what happened in the City of Bones, they had no clue at all.

Even if he asked the higher-ups, they would not say anything about it.

He only warned the young soldiers to complete their tasks properly, not to be curious, and not to ask too many questions.

Little did he know that this would instead arouse even greater curiosity.

Fortunately, there were strict military regulations, and these soldiers did not dare to cross the line.

However, they already had a vague guess in their hearts. Since five days ago, these two young soldiers had put on this hat to prevent the grayish-white dust from coming into contact with their bodies.

At the same time, they did not chase the indigenous slaves away. They watched them walk forward quietly and finally enter the dense City of Bones.

The leaders of the major families left the Keith family’s territory.

Second Uncle Hu De walked to Yang Xi’s side with a worried look on his face.”Dulan, are you sure you want to get involved in this? Everyone in the New Frye Plane knew of the Red Emperor’s reputation for being easily angered! ”

The youngest of the three Bernadotte brothers was famous for being violent and temperamental. He was often talking and laughing with you one second ago, full of noble manners. In the next second, he might laugh and take your head off, just because of your clothes today, which made him very unhappy.

“What can we do?” Yang Xi pretended to sigh. ”

“Second Uncle, you also know that I, the City Lord of Light City, am nothing without the support of the Hundred Cities Federation. Now that he has handed over the knife, if I choose to play dumb, once the truth is revealed, the Keith family will definitely be punished. ”

“The new platinum deacon, Venerable Storm, is not an easy target to fool.

Compared to him, Venerable Lei Ming is like a child who hasn’t grown up! ”

Lord Storm was called Wollaston, a Type 4 expert who had comprehended the ‘ Steam “. His strength was unfathomable. Although he was also a Platinum

Deacon, his status was not the same as the previous two who had died in battle. In the Hundred Cities Federation, he was highly regarded by Norton and Judge Bernice.

There were even rumors that the handsome Wolston was the lover of Justice Bernice.

However, no one dared to mention this gossip because it involved Tier 4 super experts.

If he was caught blabbering, he could basically prepare a suicide note.

Hood’s face was filled with worry.

“What should we do?”

To be honest, he was probably the one who had the most tiring life in the entire City of Light.

First of all, he had long suspected Yang Xi’s identity. He was already 70% to 80% sure that his nephew was an imposter.

However, he had no choice but to cover up for Yang Xi.

Once the news that Yang Xi was a fake was leaked, the first to suffer would be the Keith family.

Not to mention Yang Xi’s ruthless methods after taking office, he had already offended the major families of the City of Light.

Even without this matter, just the authority of the City Lord would cause the families who knew this secret to go crazy and cause trouble.

Other than that, Yang Xi basically did all kinds of complicated matters. The one who really balanced the interests of the various families was still the hardworking Hu De.

One could tell how hard Hood had been living recently just by looking at his ever-thinner waistline.

When he had brought Yang Xi back from the Crimson Frost Island, his stomach was comparable to a pregnant woman who was eight months pregnant.

“Then I’ll contact Lord Storm. Dulan, the Keith family can be the messenger for this matter. We can’t get too involved, or else there will be endless trouble.” Hood had no choice but to earnestly emphasize it again.

Yang Xi ” solemnly ” nodded.” Don’t worry, Second Uncle. No matter what, I’ve been the City Lord for a period of time. I can still understand this kind of thing.

Although he said so, Yang Xi had already made up his mind to make this matter big.

Wouldn’t it be a waste of his appearance fee if he didn’t let a few Tier 4 Ossaids fight?

Even if it was just a clone, he had allocated a lot of Soul Energy to it. If he didn’t have enough benefits, wouldn’t it be good for him to use the Soul Energy to comprehend the Profound Meaning?

After Hu De left, Yang Xi pretended to close his eyes and rest for a while. He then said indifferently,””Xue Li, after eavesdropping for so long, have you gained anything?”

From the beginning, Yang Xi had noticed that Xue Li, this cheap cousin, was eavesdropping.

Cher, who was dressed in an Ossaide style style dress, walked out from behind the pillar. She pretended to be indifferent and just listening. Don’t think about going to my father to complain! ”

In Xue Li’s heart, even though her unreliable cousin had become the City Lord of Light City, she was still more afraid of her father.

Especially her father, who used to have a good temper, had become a powder keg during this period of time. She did not want to get into trouble.

Looking at the proud Osaide girl in front of him, Yang Xi smiled and shook his head.

Actually, after getting to know her more, he knew that Cher was a pretty good kid. If it wasn’t for the restriction of her faction, he might have a good impression of her.

After all, Xue Li’s appearance was quite good. Her slim waist and long snow-white legs were all top-notch.

However, there was one bad thing. The women of Ossaide were too open -minded.

The customs were different.

In the two different regions of the inland, they might not be able to accept each other’s customs, let alone the difference in concepts between the humans and the Ossaids.

Just like those few family leaders, they were not angry that their legitimate daughter was tortured and killed, but that their bloodline was tainted by the natives.

Looking at his little cousin’s proud face, Yang Xi stood up and covered her little face with his big hand.

Xue Li, who was caught off guard, lost her balance. After swinging her hands wildly, she managed to save Yang Xi’s arm.

Feeling the gentle breath coming from his palm, Yang Xi let go.

He laughed and said,”l want to tell you that I want to pay a price.

Xue Li finally regained her composure. When she heard Yang Xi’s words, she rolled her eyes at him, leaving Yang Xi with a proud look on her face.

She was not willing to pay any price!

In a valley outside the city.

There was a huge waterfall that was 100 meters tall.

Before it was colonized, it was once a famous tourist destination in the

Southern Continent.

Now, it had become the private territory of a certain big shot.

The two huge Pale Eyed Dragons broke through the clouds and landed on the ground, turning back into their human forms.

They were Dulan and Hu De, who were played by Yang Xi.

The three-meter-tall stone-skinned guards crossed their spears in front of Yang Xi and the other man, blocking their path.

“Anyone who comes, please stop. Only those who are not allowed to enter!”

Hood hurriedly stepped forward and handed over an invitation. This was a token to meet Venerable Storm.

The two stone-skinned men opened the invitation and glanced at Yang Xi and

Hu De before slowly opening up the passage, revealing the stairs behind them.

Yang Xi looked around and saw that there were at least ten thousand steps. It was said that Venerable Storm ordered an earth-type ability user to build it after he came here.

If this was the Southern Continent before it was colonized, this kind of behavior would be considered destroying cultural relics.

Yang Xi coldly glanced at the two stone-skinned men, as if he had put in a little effort to shape the characters.

It wasn’t until the two of them had walked far away that the two stone-skinned men said disdainfully, “”lsn’t he just a piece of trash who used his connections to become the City Lord? I can do it too!”

“I heard that this guy has destroyed several small families before he temporarily stabilized his position as the City Lord of Light City. I think that the Keith family won’t be able to enjoy its glory for long. This time, they probably encountered some difficulties, so they came to seek Lord Venerable Storm’s help. ”

“Then they’ve made the wrong decision. With Lord Venerable Storm’s status, they want to invite him out of the mountain, hehe. ”

The two stone-skinned people were jealous of Yang Xi’s luck in getting the position of City Lord. Their words were full of lemon flavor.

After taking a few steps, Yang Xi was too lazy to use his feet anymore.

He extended a pair of wings on his back and slowly flew along the stone steps.

Seeing this scene, Hu De was scared half to death. He quickly grabbed Yang Xi’s wings.” Dulan, what are you doing! If Venerable Storm saw it, he would be angry!

Venerable Lord Storm had a rule. If one wanted to see him, they had to walk up the stone steps obediently.

Of course, this rule was for those who were weaker than him.

If it was Norton, then Venerable Storm had obediently run down the mountain to see him.

Yang Xi said indifferently,” Why do you care so much? I’m the City Lord of Light City, after all. My status in the Hundred Cities Federation is not much different from his! ”

“Second Uncle, we’re not asking him for help. What are you afraid of?”

“Didn’t you say that it’s best not to get involved in this matter? If I fly up, maybe he will disappear?”

Hu De was originally a little scared by Yang Xi’s ” arrogant ” approach, but after hearing what he said, he felt that it made sense.

In addition, he knew that this imposter probably wouldn’t care about him, so he simply gave up on persuading her.

Yang Xi smiled and turned his head. He spread his wings and accelerated, shooting up the stone steps like an arrow leaving the bow.

However, when they were still a few hundred meters away from the ancient pavilion on the top of the mountain, a cold snort came from above.

Immediately, the surrounding temperature rose sharply. Yang Xi was hit by the hot steam in a moment of carelessness. Almost instantly, Yang Xi felt that he was cooked!

If it wasn’t for the Pale Eye Flame Dragon bloodline’s strong vitality, he might have been sent back to Yang Xi’s consciousness.

“Roar!”

Yang Xi had originally wanted to cause trouble, so he did not hesitate to transform into a huge Pale Eyed Flame Dragon and began to resist the power of the heat.

“However, this Venerable Storm probably just wants to teach me a painful lesson. This guy controls his power very well. It seems that he is a difficult enemy. ”

A difficult enemy was basically equivalent to a new profoundness chain for Yang Xi.

“I have to find an opportunity to kill this Venerable Storm! ”

The temperature of the steaming wind was getting higher and higher. Even Yang Xi, who was in his Pale Eye Flame Dragon form, could not hold on any longer.

If this was lava, it would be fine. Yang Xi, who was a fire-type, would be like a fish in water.

However, Venerable Storm’s power was derived from the profoundness of the water element and the temperature of the heat profoundness. Yang Xi could not rely on his attributes to reduce the damage.

Just as Yang Xi was about to put on an act and try to break through on the spot, the hot steam suddenly disappeared without a trace.

A handsome middle-aged man in a simple robe appeared on Yang Xi’s shoulder.

He was less than two meters tall, and he was a refined man. He had black hair that looked like silk. Compared to Yang Xi, who was eight to nine meters long, he looked like a pet.

However, in the eyes of Hu De, who had just arrived, the huge Yang Xi was the pet of this Venerable Storm.

Hu De naturally noticed the injuries on Yang Xi’s body and became anxious.

If this imposter died, the foundation of the Keith family would be destroyed.

He quickly knelt down in front of Venerable Storm.” Please calm down, my lord. The mayor didn’t choose to go up the stairs because he wanted to tell you the important information as soon as possible!”

” What information is so important that the City Lord of Light has to deliver it himself?” Venerable Storm said casually.”

“My temple is small, it really can’t accommodate you two stupid dragons. It’s better to go back to where you came from! ”

Although Norton had asked him to take care of the major cities in the coastal area, Venerable Storm would not do as he was told.

He had always been subtly obeying Norton’s orders. If it wasn’t for Bernice, he might not have stayed in the Hundred Cities Federation.

With his strength, he would be able to become a distinguished guest in any force.

Hood was overjoyed. If Venerable Storm did not want to deal with this matter, it would be a good thing for the Keith family.

At the very least, he did not have to be afraid of being on Red Emperor’s must-kill list.

Who knew that at this moment, Yang Xi opened his mouth and said, “”Sir Deacon, are you sure you don’t want to hear this information?”

“The person involved is the Red Emperor! ”

Venerable Storm’s aura immediately changed.

If Yang Xi’s disregard of his rules had only made him a little angry, then the appearance of the Red Emperor’s name had really made him want to kill him.

The powerful Type 4 expert said coldly, “”0h, it has something to do with Red Emperor? Then I’m interested to hear about it..”
