Chapter 336: Top-tier Savior Heir!

He heard the warm, moist voice and felt the warmth from his shoulder.

Bai Lin steadied herself again, and earnestly nodded at Gu Han.

The two immediately walked side by side toward the Triumphal Gate.

Gu Han had no confidence in whether they could pass the Triumphal Gate's inspection.

His means of treating the Black Tide aura relied entirely on the Heavenly Universe Spirit Fruit and the Demon King Yin Li Yun.

Rather than the Savior Heir's ability.

If the Triumphal Gate could truly discern a Savior Heir, he feared he would not be able to pass its trial!

While Gu Han was anxious, the two had already arrived before the Triumphal Gate.

As the two stepped into the Triumphal Gate, it burst forth with a blinding golden light!

The Sheng Cheng Guards on the City Tower, seeing the golden light suddenly coming from below, instantly changed expression,

"Which Savior Heir has returned to the Sheng Cheng?"

The Sheng Cheng Guards captain nearest the Triumphal Gate was even more so stabbed by this golden light, instinctively closing his eyes.

That stabbing pain made his eyes involuntarily tear up!

However, as one of the Sheng Cheng Guards captains, his physique naturally far surpassed that of most people.

Moments later, he opened his eyes, filled with bloodshot veins.

Looking at that bright but no longer blinding golden light, he remained dazed for a long time.

He did not know the principle by which the Triumphal Gate discerns Savior Heirs.

As a Sheng Cheng Guard, he only knew that when the Black Tide approaches, the Triumphal Gate emits a black light.

And when Savior Heirs approach, the Triumphal Gate bursts forth with golden light.

The stronger a Savior Heir's ability, the more intense the golden light becomes.

That burst of golden light just now—probably only a handful of people in the entire Sheng Cheng could rival it.

And those few are all beings who have received the demigod mantle from the hands of fallen gods!

Could it be that one of these two before us has already become a demigod?

Just thinking of this possibility, the Sheng Cheng Guards captain felt a chill run down his spine!

"As far as people now know, only a few gods have fallen; could there still be other gods unknown to them that have fallen outside?"

"O Great Savior Heir, previously I was blind and offended you; I beg your forgiveness!"

Under the captain's lead, the Sheng Cheng Guards hastily lowered their weapons and bowed to Gu Han and the two.

If they were ordinary Savior Heirs, they would respect them but not be overly fearful.

Savior Heirs are powerful, but not exalted above all.

They guard the Sheng Cheng's entrance, and all they have done so far is enforce the law impartially—no one can find fault.

But the other side is actually a top-tier group of Savior Heirs—that concept is completely different!

"Gu Han, older brother."

Bai Lin looked up at Gu Han with a lovely, lively expression.

She had only just awakened her Savior Heir ability, so she naturally wouldn't think that relying solely on her could cause the Triumphal Gate to burst forth with such astonishing golden light.

Surely, this must be the work of Gu Han, older brother.

Gu Han's heart stirred; he guessed that it was the Kun-Peng and the Heavenly Universe Spirit Fruit currently in his Battle Pet Space that caused the Triumphal Gate to mistake him for a Savior Heir.

Speaking of special abilities, the healing effect of the Heavenly Universe Spirit Fruit is absolutely top-notch in the Chong Yuan world!

Speaking of combat power, a Yao-Emperor-level Kun-Peng would surely be hard to find an opponent for.

No matter from which angle one considers it, he is thoroughly and completely a 'Savior Heir'!

As for Little Wolf, Gu Han didn't even consider it.

Little Wolf's combat ability is not bad; bullying these Sheng Cheng Guards would probably not be a problem.

But these are merely the people responsible for guarding the city.

Those Savior Heirs tasked with combat—probably even Gu Han himself might not be a match for them, let alone Little Wolf.

The Triumphal Gate certainly would not blaze with golden light just because of Little Wolf.

Bai Lin hadn't forgotten the matter at hand, and looked toward the leading Sheng Cheng Guards captain,

"Sir, can you now release everyone?"

"Sir, you have overwhelmed this humble servant!"

The captain immediately retreated a step with a frightened expression and bowed.

He did not know exactly who had caused the Triumphal Gate to burst forth with such astonishing light.

But no matter which of the two it was, he dared not act arrogantly before either of them.

"Haven't you heard the sir's order? Quickly release everyone!"

This is not because he fears the strong.

Rather, the Lu Chui Zhen magistrate had earlier mentioned that among the accompanying Savior Heirs, someone possessed the ability to treat the Black Tide aura.

Regardless of which of the two this person is, they can clear the Black Tide aura from these people.

Naturally, it's not up to them to worry!

"However, after the two adults enter the city, they will likely need to have someone write a written report."

The Sheng Cheng Guards captain, not forgetting his duty, spoke with a stiff scalp,

"These stones filled with Black Tide aura are, after all, an unstable factor; if brought into the Sheng Cheng without a reasonable explanation, we guards cannot bear the responsibility."

Gu Han lightly nodded.

He is not an unreasonable person; all previous actions of the Sheng Cheng Guards were in accordance with regulations.

He naturally would not make things difficult for the other party.

Gu Han took the raw stone from Bai Tie and the others, and with a swipe of his hand, all the Black Tide aura on it entered his storage space.

When Bai Tie and the others passed the triumphal arch again, the triumphal arch gave no further warning.

Seeing this, the Sheng Cheng Guards couldn't help but feel astonished.

"Lord Ye Heng possesses the ability to dispel Black Tide aura, but he can release it at most ten times a day."

"Even if only ten times, for the Savior Heirs it remains an extremely important effect."

"But this Savior Heir just dispelled such a strong Black Tide aura from these stones, yet showed no change in expression or heartbeat—truly rare!"

"Just this purification effect alone is probably already superior to Lord Ye Heng!"

"With this lord's addition, our hope of resisting the Black Tide has increased somewhat!"

Gu Han had already led his team into the renowned Sheng Cheng, so he naturally didn't know the Sheng Cheng Guards' discussion.

As soon as he stepped through the City Gate, he found that the inside and outside of the Sheng Cheng were like two different worlds—no exaggeration.

Outside the Sheng Cheng, the vast wilderness for thousands of miles is almost devoid of human habitation.

They have basically encountered no one from other regions along the way.

Inside the Sheng Cheng, whether it's the vendors' calls along the streets or the upbeat attitude of pedestrians strolling about.

Are things not found among the people of Lu Chui Zhen!

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Gu Han hadn't walked long before he saw a blacksmith's shop.

The blacksmith's shop wasn't surprising; whether it was Bai Tie or Bai Ka beside Gu Han, they were both skilled smiths.

Even if one were to boast across the entire Chong Yuan world, they would likely be among the top.

But what is surprising is the person doing the forging!

This person is pitch black all over, wearing a bronze mask on his face.

The key point is his height—he is likely a full one zhang tall!
