CHAPTER 1258: CHAPTER 1243: MASTER JIANGG IN DANGER
"Since both of you honored guests have arrived at our Wuchuan Wasteland City, you are our most esteemed guests! Please, both of you, come in!"
Under the guidance of City Lord Chuan Mu, Shi Feng and Huo Yu quickly arrived at the ancient and majestic City Lord Mansion hall.
"Please have a seat!"
City Lord Chuan Mu sat back on the City Lord’s Throne above, while Shi Feng and Huo Yu casually sat below.
Soon, maids from the City Lord Mansion served two cups of tea, placing them on the coffee table beside Shi Feng and Huo Yu.
At this time, City Lord Chuan Mu spoke, saying, "With you honored guests gracing our Wuchuan Wasteland City, it is truly a great honor for us! Since you’ve arrived, both of you, stay in our Wuchuan Wasteland City for a few more days. It would allow me to properly fulfill my duty as a host."
Upon hearing Chuan Mu’s words, Huo Yu said, "This time, I’m afraid that’s not possible. We have urgent matters at hand and will be departing soon! Maybe next time."
"Oh, that’s really unfortunate!" Chuan Mu said with regret, "Then next time, if both of you visit our Wuchuan Wasteland Domain again, you must stay longer at my place!"
"Certainly, certainly!" Huo Yu nodded and said, "In a moment, we still need to use your city’s Teleportation Array. We hope City Lord can grant us this convenience later."
"Convenience! Of course!" Chuan Mu replied promptly, "Whenever you need it, just say the word."
This era is an era of face and status; tonight, this city’s Space Transmission Array was originally sealed but for Flame Saint Son Huo Yu, it’s ready at a moment’s notice!
Now, Shi Feng and Huo Yu’s issue with the Space Transmission Array can be considered resolved.
However, up to this point, Shi Feng had remained silent, listening to Huo Yu and Chuan Mu speak while his eyes continued to gaze at the intricately carved stone wall not far behind Chuan Mu.
Chuan Mu gradually became aware of this mysterious boy’s gaze, and then he turned his head to look behind him.
Looking again at the carved stone wall, Chuan Mu softly murmured, "I don’t know how things are inside now. Jiangg Family’s Divine Refiner Jiangg Ning, inviting her this time cost quite a price. Hopefully, she can completely resolve that abomination!"
Then, Chuan Mu’s gaze shifted back to Shi Feng and Huo Yu, noticing Huo Yu still looking at him. He realized he had been briefly distracted by matters inside, neglecting them. Chuan Mu immediately showed an awkward expression, apologizing to Huo Yu:
"I’m sorry, Saint Heir, I neglected you."
"Oh, it’s nothing," Huo Yu replied with a slight smile, shaking his head and expressing a generous disposition.
Speaking, Huo Yu’s gaze also turned toward the carved stone wall, secretly thinking, "Since entering, there’s been no sign of Jiangg Ning. Looking at the City Lord’s demeanor earlier, could Jiangg Ning be behind that stone wall?"
At this moment, Shi Feng, who had been staring at the stone wall, suddenly spoke: "The situation seems grim!"
"Hmm? What’s grim?" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Huo Yu turned back with a puzzled expression, asking him.
Although Shi Feng’s voice was soft, City Lord Chuan Mu also heard. He knew Shi Feng’s gaze had been fixed on the stone wall all along, and he was startled as he asked Shi Feng: "What’s wrong?"
Shi Feng slowly spoke, "The baleful and resentful aura from there is extremely heavy. This Wronged Soul is not simple! The Soul Power suppressing it is strong, but its application in Soul Attack is lacking. At this rate, both individuals inside are in danger!"
"What! Both individuals inside are in danger!" Hearing Shi Feng’s words, Chuan Mu was immediately astonished!
Inside, he naturally knew which two people were being referred to!
Because there were only these two inside!
But! Inside, there is Jiangg Ning, the Divine Refiner of the Jiangg Family! The use of Soul Power by a Divine Refiner has long reached the Extraordinary Realm; could she truly not deal with that abomination?
Following this, Chuan Mu began to doubt the mysterious boy’s words.
Then Chuan Mu saw the mysterious boy rise from his chair, and say again, "I’ll lend her a hand!"
"He will lend her a hand?" Hearing Shi Feng’s words, Chuan Mu’s heart was again stirred. Gradually, considering the boy’s previous words, Chuan Mu started to understand!
This person must have discovered that Jiangg Ning is behind there, and his words are just an excuse to enter and meet Jiangg Ning, right?
And approach her!
Chuan Mu is well-informed about the legends of Jiangg Ning, the Jiangg Family’s Divine Refiner.
Since Jiangg Ning became a Divine Refiner, renowned throughout the world, she has been constantly pursued.
Among her suitors are Saint Heirs from Sacred Lands, inheritors of ancient powers, and family successors.
Jiangg Ning, one of the Eight Great Refiners! If even she can’t handle the abomination, what help can he offer?
Although the boy’s identity is mysterious, in dealing with the "Evil Ghost," Chuan Mu does not believe that what even Divine Refiner Jiangg Ning cannot accomplish, he can.
Moreover, Jiangg Ning instructed before entering that once she entered, no one was to disturb her!
If his entrance interferes with her and something goes wrong, that’s not something Chuan Mu can bear!
If anything happens to Jiangg Ning in his Wuchuan Wasteland City’s City Lord Mansion, the wrath of the Jiangg Family is not something he can withstand!
At this time, Shi Feng had already stood up, looking as if he was preparing to walk toward the carved stone wall.
And at this moment, Chuan Mu promptly spoke, kindly stopping him:
"Honored guest, please do not! Master Jiangg instructed upon entering that no one was to intrude. If you enter and anger Master Jiangg, it won’t be good!"
"Oh?" Hearing Chuan Mu’s words, Shi Feng paused his steps. He did not become angry due to his obstruction, but maintained a composed expression, saying, "Can’t I go in?"
Chuan Mu’s face showed a troubled expression and he spoke again: "It’s truly because of Master Jiangg’s instruction; rash intrusion would indeed be improper."
After hearing Chuan Mu’s words, Shi Feng calmly said again, "If I don’t go in soon, Jiangg Ning and your daughter will truly be in danger."
But when he spoke of their danger, Shi Feng’s face showed no sign of urgency, making it hard to see any imminent peril for anyone.
This mysterious boy’s serene demeanor made Chuan Mu further believe he was exaggerating threats, and as the City Lord of Wuchuan Wasteland City, a regional ruler, Chuan Mu was not one to be easily frightened.
Chuan Mu smiled slightly, and said to Shi Feng, "We should not disturb Master Jiangg. I believe she will certainly handle that abomination. Let’s stay here calmly and await the good news from Master Jiangg."
