Chapter 363

Let them misunderstand.

"Then aren't you curious how I passed the trial?" Jiang Li asked.

"Regardless of what means Your Highness used to pass the trial, I only know that Your Highness is the future King!" Lances said.

"Why does passing a single trial make one the future King?"

Lances glanced at Jiang Li and said, "Under the rule of the first Norland King, an order was issued: anyone in the world who has the ability to pass the trial of the Valley of Blazing Flames may become Norland and become the King of Norland."

"But thousands of years have passed, and no one has been able to pass the trial. Even I went to the Valley of Trials; it is simply something no normal living being could accomplish."

"Even the countless descendants of the first Norland King could not pass the trial. Some even willingly became ordinary citizens among the masses!"

Seeing Jiang Li somewhat surprised, Lances said, "Your Highness need not be astonished. I am telling you things that even Long Long Lisha and the others do not know."

"Because under the regulations of the second Norland King, such a rule was established: anyone who knows this is strictly forbidden from mentioning it!"

"Therefore, it is believed throughout the world that only those of royal bloodline can possibly pass the trial of the Valley of Blazing Flames smoothly!"

"And the second Norland King, who is Your Highness's father, for reasons unknown, personally instructed me that perhaps years later someone would pass the trial. At that time, I did not understand what he meant at all."

"Now, looking back, I finally understand—that was the return of the King, Your Highness! What the second Norland King Your Majesty spoke of was You!"

Jiang Li's heart gave a sudden jolt.

At the same time, he was utterly certain.

The first class-change quest; the Golden Skeleton King might very well be—the second King of the Norland Kingdom standing before him.

For reasons unknown, such a powerful Norland King had turned into an ordinary Golden Skeleton King.

And he had given the Ring of Norland to Jiang Li.

Finally, when Jiang Li attempted to assault the Eternal Instance, those Eternal Skeleton Soldiers might have been the subordinates of the second Norland King; even the Five Elements Jin Gang Skeleton King within the Eternal Instance might have been a subordinate of the second Norland King.

It is simply unclear exactly what occurred within.

Lances might have been slightly mistaken.

That is, the second Norland King knew Jiang Li was the class-changer, yet he still gave the Ring of Norland to Jiang Li...
