Chapter 522

But in reality.

He had already completely rejected it in his heart.

If it were not for so many secrets within his Lord Chenxi territory.

Joining the Red Maple Gao Ta would not have been a bad thing.

But he had too many secrets.

Once leaked.

Then even if he joined the Red Maple Gao Ta and became an elder.

He would absolutely be swallowed up completely by the high command of the Red Maple Gao Ta!

It could be said.

Joining the Red Maple Gao Ta was the most dangerous thing for him. Upon hearing this, Tai's gaze at Li Yue shifted slightly, and he nodded gently: "My lord Baron, I will return in one month. Sorry to have disturbed you." As his words fell.

He and the other eight Legendary Stage mages bowed to Li Yue, then walked out of the hall.

Li Yue watched them leave, his expression calm and undisturbed.

But in his heart, the urgency to strengthen his power grew even greater. This matter of the Red Maple Gao Ta—definitely not over!

Tai and the other nine teleported back to the capital of the Lora Kingdom.

Of course.

Geros, the eldest prince of the Lora Kingdom, who had basically no presence, also returned with them.

However, the nine Legendary Stage mages paid no attention to this eldest prince.

Returning to the Magic Tower.

Tai took out a mirror covered in various strange magical symbols and activated it with mana.

Immediately, the mirror flickered with a faint light.

Countless magical symbols danced and swirled.

Very quickly.

An old mage appeared in the mirror.

This mage wore a crimson-red robe, sat cross-legged, and had a blank expression.

His eyes were also crimson, just like the long hair behind him.

Seeing this mage.

Was like seeing a flame burning fiercely.

A flame hot enough to burn everything to ashes! "Lord Nicker!"

Including Tai, the nine Legendary Stage mages bowed with extreme reverence.

Everyone's face bore deep awe. "The Baron badge is in the hands of Lord Chenxi?"

Nicker spoke, and although separated by a mirror, Tai and the other nine felt a gaze as substantial as a physical object. "Yes, my lord!" Tai said respectfully.

"He did not agree to join the Gao Ta?" Nicker asked again. "Yes, my lord!" Tai replied.

He was not surprised that this lord could know these things from tens of thousands of miles away.

The lifespan of a Legendary Stage mage could reach fifteen hundred years.

Hence the saying 'Millennium Legendary'. As for the Saint Domain—lifespan reached a terrifying five thousand years.

Existences who had lived such long lives, what things had they not seen?

Each was a living myth.

Seeing a fallen leaf and knowing autumn was simply the most basic technique. "Return now."

"Hand over the following matters to the Crimson Flame Department."

In the mirror, the expressionless Nicker gave the order. "Yes, my lord!" Tai bowed deeply.

He did not mention the one-month promise from Lord Chenxi.

It held no meaning.

As a Millennium Legendary.

He naturally understood very well what Lord Chenxi meant by saying those words.

A refusal without losing politeness.

That was all.

If he truly believed Lord Chenxi intended to consider it.

Then he would be a fool.

At the same time, he sighed for Lord Chenxi.

Refusing a good elder position.

Insisting on choosing to fight? Truly refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a penalty wine!

The Crimson Flame Department takes over.

No matter if you are Late Legendary Stage or even at the Legendary limit, you will be utterly destroyed!

Returning to Lord Chenxi territory.

Li Yue's expression was also very Solemn.

He knew very well that the other party would not believe the one-month delay.

"... ~Must obtain another Territory Time Acceleration Scroll."

"Only the Territory Time Acceleration Scroll can strengthen power again in the shortest time." He murmured softly, his gaze calm.

Of course.

What he said was not useless.

At least, there was no open break with the Red Maple High Tower.

And from the fact that the other party directly invited him to become an elder of the Red Maple High Tower.

The baron badge in his hand was far more important than he had imagined.

Not only was it a pseudo-artifact; more importantly, it was the significance the badge represented!

It belonged to the nobility of the Magic Empire!

And this significance was absolutely crucial to the Red Maple High Tower. Perhaps—it might even be a cornerstone of the Red Maple High Tower.

So.

As long as he did not openly make an enemy of the Red Maple High Tower.

Then the Red Maple High Tower would not directly act against him.

Of course.

The actions of a few individuals could not be counted as the actions of the Red Maple High Tower.

He guessed.

Behind the nine legendary mages including Tai, there must be a high-ranking figure of the Red Maple High Tower standing. Perhaps—it was a Saint Realm powerhouse!

But a Saint Realm powerhouse would certainly have to consider the cornerstone of the Red Maple High Tower and could not directly act against a baron of the Magic Empire like him.

He felt the most likely possibility.

Was the existence behind Tai and the others.

Additionally, they would dispatch hidden forces to act against him.

They would not bring it into the open.

"My lord, Lady Angel has sent news; two dungeons have been crushed. Please proceed to take possession!" At this moment.

The intelligence officer Tracy approached, bowed, and said.

Li Yue's eyes brightened slightly.

A satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Two dungeons; this meant at least two Shi Shi treasure chests. Perhaps—one could even open a Territory Time Acceleration Scroll!
