Chapter 340: Just You Wait

Na Li Yang and Na Li Bo were stimulated by everything Lu Zheng had said and at the end, they were short of words.

"Amazing" Na Li Yang was the first to find his bearings. "An alliance with a Palace! You've truly outdone yourself this time"

Na Li Bo's focus was on another thing: "An inheritance ground full of incomplete inheritances? That alone is enough to elevate our Na Clan to a whole new level"

Immortal Star was surprised that Lu Zheng would actively share his gains with this Na Clan. This meant that the connection between them was definitely not simple.

But he already knew this when they called him Elder.

"Na Li Bo, there's a place I want you to go to. As it stands, word that I am connected to Na Clan will spread to the four clans and any of them might attack us for the aperture fragment at any moment. It is important that the strength of the Clan rises quickly"

Na Li Bo was suddenly interested: "What place is this?"

Lu Zheng smiled as the Vermillion Sacred Prism flew out of his spatial ring. The crystalline artifact flew around before using its methods.

In an instant, both Lu Zheng and Na Li Bo disappeared from the hall, stunning Na Li Yang and Immortal Star.

…..

The red eyes shone maliciously inside the building as the chains that bound its body creaked and rattled as it struggled vehemently.

For ten breaths of time, the beast roared and groaned as it struggled to set itself free but to no avail. After this time, it lost its vigour and laid limply on the ground.

It was already exhausted.

Another being inside the room suddenly said in a calm but cold voice: "Do not strain yourself. These Demon Sealing Chains will continue to suck your vitality till you cannot move again. You should know this already, Themur"

The beast calmed and snorted lazily as its red eyes shut close. It had already used up most of the energy it had stored in this period of time.

"Hong Haoyu, I sensed him" The beast said to the other person inside the room.

Yes, these two were Hong Haoyu and Themur who were captured by an Extent realm expert of Xiong Clan.

Hong Haoyu's gaze flickered as a warm expression formed on his aloof face for a short instant before disappearing as quickly as it came.

"I see" His tone was gentle but one could sense the depths of despair from them. "It's a pity, now that you have sensed his presence; we do not have the freedom to warn him of what is coming"

Hong Haoyu looked at the glass walls of the cage he was kept in. Unlike Themur, he was not bound with the Demon Sealing Chains of Xiong Clan.

He was a bearer of the Supreme Ice Physique and could absorb ambient Qi at a frightening rate. The Demon Sealing Chains would be useless against him.

Instead, he was imprisoned in a large glass cage that isolated him from the outside world. Talismans were engraved inside his body so that he could not circulate his Essence and a small formation was set up around the glass cage.

He could not escape at all.

In such manner, both men had been captured and imprisoned in total darkness for three months without any interaction with the outside world.

The darkness seemed to coil and churn as shadows flickered around. Themur's gaze turned cold as Hong Haoyu snorted in anger.

"You've come again" Themur rose to his feet as he bared his fangs at the man before him.

"Hmm" The Xiong Clan Head smiled faintly as he walked towards Themur. He tried to pat him on the head but Themur only bit his hand.

Yet, he did not show an expression of pain. His hand melded into dark shadows that poured from Themur's mouth.

"Ugh! Distasteful!" Themur spat out in anger.

"I have given you more time to think. Will you accept my offer and become my beast pet?" Xiong Clan Head said with a smile as the dark shadows formed into his hand again.

"Tch! You dream too much! This Purple Flame Lion will never succumb to you, never!" Themur roared in anger as he bared his fangs again. Purple flames licked his body but the Demon Sealing Chains reacted and shone with a red light.

Immediately, the purple flames died out and Themur fell to the ground limply.

Xiong Clan Head shook his head and walked towards Hong Haoyu: "Supreme Ice Physique, have you given it some thought? If you swear your loyalty to my Xiong Clan and make an alliance agreement with us, I can set you free"

Hong Haoyu snorted in disdain at the man before him and turned his face away: "You are only wasting your time with me"

Xiong Clan Head shook his head again and clicked his tongue: "I admire your perseverance. It is truly awe-inspiring but I wonder, how long can you keep it up? It's been three months and I am in no rush, I will exercise my patience with you"

Themur's voice was weak and he could barely open his eyes: "Just you wait. Lu Zheng has already returned to Southern Border, he'll burst into this place and save us. Then, you will pay"

Themur was already drained completely and after saying this, he fainted and lost consciousness.

"Lu Zheng… this name… It seems I must speak with Xiong Ba once more" Xiong Clan Head thought to himself before melding into the darkness. After two breaths of time, his aura completely disappeared from the room.

Hong Haoyu's gaze was forlorn as his lips parted: "Lu Zheng…"
