Chapter 825
The three girls hurriedly saluted and left.
"Come in."
"Yes!"
With Lord Huo Rong's permission, Captain Chen, who was handling affairs in the temple before, walked in.
Lord Huo Rong asked impatiently: "Where have we arrived now?"
Seeing the Lord's expression, Captain Chen knew he had disturbed his good deed, and hurriedly said with trepidation: "Reporting to the Lord, we are now above the neutral zone of the Tongtian Forest!"
"Tongtian Forest neutral zone..."
Hearing this place, a strange look flashed in Lord Huo Rong's eyes.
He naturally knew this place.
Here, even human powerhouses are unwilling to come, because it is mixed with fish and dragons, and maybe they will fall here if they are not careful.
Not to mention that many Lords are suspicious by nature and act very cautiously.
But he, Huo Rong, was an exception.
Because the task of offering three-year-old children in the temple was issued by him to the people here, and he met with the person in charge at that time.
So he couldn't say he was very familiar with this place, but he definitely couldn't say he was a stranger.
"May I ask... Lord, should we land?"
"Land."
Lord Huo Rong thought for a few seconds and nodded.
He believed that it was impossible for him to swallow Zhuyue's bounty task alone this time. Since that was the case, he might as well be generous.
Discuss some specific benefit distribution issues with the people here. After all, these people are all figures who cannot be seen in the light.
"Yes, this subordinate will go arrange it now!"
Captain Chen got the permission and hurriedly ran to the command room.
A few seconds later,
the Void Shuttle accelerated suddenly, rushed out of the void, and arrived above the Tongtian Forest.
Then it slowly began to land toward the center of the Tongtian Forest.
Then the cabin door opened.
Lord Huo Rong was in front, Captain Chen was behind, and the two walked out.
The guards saw the Void Shuttle above and said with confusion: "Strange, I haven't seen a Void Shuttle for several years, what's going on today? Today is already the second 950 Void Shuttle to come here."
After complaining to the person beside him, the guard looked up, operated his own energy, and shouted at the two people more than a hundred meters away: "Report your names!"
"Are you blind? This is the Lord's shuttle!"
This was Captain Chen's first time here. Although he had heard of this gray zone before, he always felt that it was exaggerated by rumors.
So he had no fear of the people here. After all, his superior was Lord Huo Rong.
Hearing the person speak so rudely, the guard narrowed his eyes and looked at the person who spoke with killing intent: "What did you say? You have the guts to say it again!"
"I said you are blind..."
"Slap!"
Just as Captain Chen wanted to say something else, a crisp slap sounded, and then he felt his face swell up.
This big slap directly stunned him, and little stars were still appearing in front of his eyes, obviously not having sobered up yet.
Lord Huo Rong didn't even look at him, walked forward two steps, and smiled: "A few, please do me a favor, go in and report, my name is Huo Rong!"
Hearing Lord Huo Rong give him enough face, one of them said with surprise: "So it is Lord Huo Rong, sorry for the neglect just now!
Please wait a moment, I'll go now!"
"Thank you."
Lord Huo Rong said with a smile, but a look of contempt appeared in the depths of his eyes.
After a few seconds of buffering,
Captain Chen also began to slowly sober up. The little stars in front of him had disappeared, but there was still a throbbing pain in his head.
He looked at Lord Huo Rong with full confusion and asked tremblingly: "Lo... Lord, what happened to me?"
Captain Chen was very confused now.
He didn't know why.
He was clearly boosting his boss's momentum, how could he be beaten back?
Lord Huo Rong heard this and his eyes flashed: "Shut up! If it weren't for the fact that we have been through life and death together, I would have killed you now!"
"I..."
"I what I? I don't even dare to act recklessly here, you actually thought of showing off using my name?"
After speaking,
Lord Huo Rong looked at the towering ancient trees around him and stopped paying attention to Captain Chen, who was still confused.
This person is good at everything, just a bit problematic in the brain.
Dozens of seconds later,
the guard who went to report ran back hurriedly: "Lord Huo Rong, when Boss Gong heard you were here, he was very happy. Please come in."
Lord Huo Rong smiled indifferently, then stepped forward and walked inside.
Captain Chen behind him also recalled his boss's words at this moment and hurriedly ran toward Huo Rong with his head down.
Chapter 269: God Arrives, Plan Starts!
"I haven't been here for a year, there hasn't been much change."
Looking at the familiar scene around him, Lord Huo Rong muttered to himself.
Although the overall strength of the people here is not high, they rely on the Demon race as their backing, and they also hold a lot of black material on God-level powerhouses.
So it has never been eradicated, but has become a gray zone.
As long as there are things that are inconvenient to do, they can basically be properly resolved here.
Soon,
he arrived at the guest hall.
Gong Jian was sitting on the first floor drinking tea and waiting.
When he stepped inside, Gong Jian heard the sound and slowly stood up to greet him: "Lord Huo Rong, please sit down, I just boiled a pot of tea."
"Gong Jian, you have been doing well recently. Are you satisfied with the reward I gave you before?"
"Eh... what are you talking about? Aren't we mutually beneficial? Didn't you also make a lot of money?"
"I don't know if Lord Huo Rong is here to issue a new commission or a personal commission today?"
Gong Jian was very confused.
Because this Lord Huo Rong came here two days ago to discuss the issue of offerings in the temple.
He didn't expect that he would come again after only two days, and this time he came very coincidentally.
It happened to be after the mysterious youth before.
Wait...
Thinking of this, Gong Jian was shocked.
Could it be that this Lord Huo Rong is the person the mysterious youth named to intercept and kill?
After all, this timing is too coincidental.
Originally, he was only suspicious, but Lord Huo Rong's next words directly confirmed this: "It's like this, I discovered a suspicious Void Shuttle that came here and disappeared. I want to come and ask if the people on the shuttle have come here?"
Hearing this,
a trace of deep astonishment appeared in the depths of Gong Jian's eyes, but it was immediately hidden by him.
After all, if he showed any abnormality now, it would not only ruin this matter but also put himself in a passive position.
He hurriedly collected his mind and pretended to ask with confusion: "Lord Huo Rong, a Void Shuttle did land just now. I thought it had passed the audit of your Void Patrol Team."
Actually, he was also confused about the identities of Zhao Xing and the two. Although he agreed to take this task, some necessary understanding was still needed.
Even if what Lord Huo Rong said was not the truth, he could still understand a bit about this matter.
Hearing that Gong Jian did not deny that someone had landed, Lord Huo Rong was overjoyed and hurriedly asked: "Then can Brother Gong tell me where the people are now? I want to visit them personally."
Gong Jian shook his head with a bitter smile: "Those two guests did indeed arrive in a God-level Void Shuttle, but you know the rules here, we won't disclose any situation about the guests."
"Um, I naturally know this."
Lord Huo Rong knew about this matter, but he had to bring up the topic.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Gong Jian mysteriously, and asked back: "But do you know the true identity of the person in that shuttle?"
