Last Totem Novel - Chapter 325
Chapter 325 Army
After a long while, Hui Yan gradually regained his calm. He invited Mu Yu Ling Lan into the room and moved the chair he usually sat on. He enthusiastically said, “Sit down … Granddaughter-in-law, sit here …”
Actually, he had already heard a little about the name and deeds of this girl in front of him. Although he was trapped deep underground, the three old foxes would send people to deliver newspapers every day to let him understand the current situation and make some judgments and suggestions in order to play his role as an Origin Energy Cultivator. According to the evaluation of Silver City No. 13 over the years, this priest of the Divine Hall of Prayer for Rain had always handled things calmly and ruthlessly. Moreover, he was arrogant and cold as ice. He did not falsely say goodbye to anyone. However, once such a woman fell in love with him, she would persevere until death. As an elder, he was naturally overjoyed at the sudden appearance of this exceptionally outstanding cheap granddaughter-in-law.
“Yes.” Mu Yu Ling Lan blushed, nodded slightly in greeting, and then sat down. Looking around, there was only one armchair in the narrow room. Although the elders were standing and she was sitting, it was a bit ungraceful. However, in the face of the elders’ enthusiasm and earnestness, she could not refuse, so she had no choice but to obey respectfully.
Then, Hui Yan pulled out a small bench from under the bed and sat down beside Mu Yu Ling Lan. Because Hui Yan was very tall, even if he sat on a short stool, he was no shorter than Mu Yu Ling Lan, who was sitting on a backchair.
At this moment, a strange yet harmonious scene appeared in the quiet hut. An elegant girl was sitting upright on the throne. Beside her was an old beast with a large body and white fur. It looked like a guardian god.
“Child, what difficulties have you encountered? Tell grandfather.” After sitting down, Hui Yan asked in a gentle tone. That concern flowed into words, but the feeling of licking a calf was not something that words could describe.
“Grandpa, this is what happened” Then, Mu Yu Ling Lan told Hui Yan Northess the whole story, as well as the current predicament.
After listening to Mu Yu Ling Lan’s narrative, Hui Yan pondered for a while and asked, “Do you wish to obtain the support of Peter, Burns, and Leylin through me?”
“Yes.” Mu Yu Ling Lan nodded.
“Although I’m not sure, we can try.” Hui Yan smiled and said.
“Thank you, Grandpa.” Mu Yu Ling Lan said obediently. At this moment, she was like a daughter-in-law doted on by an elder. Her timidity hid a bit of nimbleness, and her innocence revealed a trace of maturity. She looked completely obedient and sensible.
Not long after, Brandon Peter’s loud voice came from outside the door, “Little girl, you’ve crossed the line. Come out quickly!”
“Fuck off!”
However, his response was a louder voice. In comparison, his voice just now was like the cry of a lamb, the cry of a young bird. The moment Hui Yan’s roar sounded, the three Saint Rankers all turned their heads and looked at each other with astonishment on their faces.
“Hui Yan, what do you mean?” Brandon questioned as he pushed open the open door. Hui Yan and Mu Yu Ling Lan were standing in the hut. The former was slightly forward, subconsciously blocking the latter with half of his body, while the latter was holding a long object wrapped in rags, staring coldly at them.
“I told you to scram. Didn’t you hear me?” Hui Yan said in a very angry tone.
Brandon’s face darkened as he threatened, “Old man, think of your grandchildren.”
Hearing Brandon’s words, Hui Yan stomped on the floor in anger. “Bang!” With a loud explosion, the bricks and stones on the ground instantly shattered, as if the entire prison was shaking.
‘”Aiya … I’ve been an old friend for many years. Is there anything I can’t sit down and talk about? A temper that’s so old …” Morton hurriedly stepped forward to make things right.
Hui Yan ignored Morton and took a step forward. He stared at Brandon and said in a deep voice, “Brandon Peter, Colin Burns, Morton Leylin, I, Hui Yan, have been imprisoned in the deepest part of the earth by you all these years, and have not seen the sun for twenty years!” But I have tried my best to advise you and put in all my effort for the development of your clan. I ask you, is there anything I have done wrong to you? ”
The three Saint Rankers looked at each other and did not say anything.
Hui Yan’s gaze swept across the faces of the three of them and he suddenly roared, “Answer me, did you?”
The three of them still did not answer, only quietly looking at this prisoner who was covered in shackles but was furious.
“But today, more than twenty years have passed. You still want to threaten me with my descendants!” Hui Yan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Let me tell you, they are all grown up now and will no longer be threatened by you.”
Brandon laughed coldly and said disdainfully, “So what if they grow up? Just them? A few wet-breasted little fellows?”
“Yes, with them!” Hui Yan shouted, “Brandon, let me tell you, every Northess is a vast army!”
“Brandon, I advise you not to provoke them …”
“If you don’t believe me, you can try. Let me see just how powerful and powerful your Saint Rank might is.”
“But don’t regret the day when Northess returned with his army and crushed your family into pieces!”
“Be friends with us, or stand against us. Have you all thought about it?”
In an instant, a faint but incomparably clear sense of fear came from the deepest part of his soul. Brandon, who had always maintained a high level of martial power, involuntarily took a step back. This was a deep fear. It came from the glorious holy war 180 years ago, and also from the determination of the Vast Expanse Sword 20 years ago.
No one who knew of the war, no one who had seen Northbloodlust, would question their courage and faith. It was this thick history that forced him to believe Hui Yan’s words. If it was someone else, he might just treat it as a fool’s dream and laugh it off.
However, when the person who said those words was a Norse, then …
Anything is possible.
Amongst the three people present, Morton was even more convinced. The young Northess, who had been raised by his comrades, had actually spent only three years as a Silver City noble and a meager startup capital to form the eighth-ranked guild of the Central Silver City Military Academy-the Spartan Warriors.
Over time, he would become a vast army. As for Morton’s other two Northas, Raven and Hagrid, they had already been at the top of their heads and had lost their weight. If he was still alive now, he would definitely be a person who would raise his arms and respond with thousands of responses.
There is a saying in the Far East that people die more than people when comparing goods. Morton turned around to look at his grandchildren. If they were better compared to others, but if they were compared to Northess, they would simply be unsightly. In this regard, he could only comfort himself from time to time, saying that the environment in which they grew up was different. Those children who grew up in difficult environments would always understand things earlier, while those children who grew up in comfortable environments would always attach themselves to their elders and warm blankets, easily forgetting their responsibilities. However, in his thoughts, he had selectively forgotten about Hildebrand Sujia …
“No matter what, that will be a matter for the future. Besides …” Brandon calmed down and said, “There is no need for the grudges between us old fellows to continue into the next generation.”
Hui Yan nodded, agreeing with Brandon. Then the latter asked, “Then what do you mean by protecting this little girl now? Is she also a member of your Northess family?”
“For so many years, it has been rare for someone to come and talk to me. I feel like she is like my little granddaughter, obedient, sensible, smart and lovely.” “If you three old men want to bully her today, you have to ask me first. Agree! Or disagree!” Hui Yan said imposing.
“Old man, are you still reasonable?” Morton stepped forward and questioned.
“He’s just an old scoundrel!” Colin agreed.
“I’m not being reasonable today. What’s wrong?” Hui Yan suddenly grinned and said.
“You!” Brandon pointed at Hui Yan, speechless for a long time. After a while, he gritted his teeth and blew on his white beard, threatening in a low voice, “Hui Yan, don’t make me do it.”
Hui Yan snorted coldly and said, “Brandon, let me ask you, if I join hands with her and fight with my life, what are your chances of winning?” Without waiting for an answer, his gaze swept across Colin and Morton’s faces, and he continued, “You may survive, but your two old friends …” He stared at them and shouted word by word, “Death–Death!”
Hui Yan’s explosive shout frightened Colin and Morton to the point their faces turned pale, and they took several steps back in succession. They knew very well that even though Brandon was extremely powerful, if Hui Yan and Muyu Ling Lan were to risk their lives, the two weakest of them would definitely die on the spot.
“Grandfather, Ling Lan doesn’t think so.” Just as he finished speaking, Mu Yu Ling Lan raised her hand and shook it. The cloth wrapped around the sword instantly fell to the ground in circles. In an instant, a dazzling sword appeared, reflecting a cold sword shadow on the four walls.
“The Elegy of the Sky!” Brandon’s eyes widened as he cried out.
In an instant, the tense atmosphere rose to its peak, and the air seemed to freeze.
After a moment of silence, Hui Yan was the first to break the deadlock and said, “Old friends, I suggest that everyone sit down and have a good talk. Perhaps” At this point, his eyes shone with a purple light. “You will be interested in the location of the next Moon Prayer Sacrifice …”
When the two sides in the confrontation had the corresponding strength and the equivalent bargaining chips, they could sit down and talk properly. As a result, in the next few days, the five strongest experts of Silver City Number 13 sat down around a small round table in the narrow hut. At first glance, Mu Yu Ling Lan was sitting upright on the backchair, while Hui Yan and Brandon were sitting on the cot, while Colin and Morton were sitting on the bench.
After several hours of bargaining, he drank a few more bottles of wine and the heads of the first, second and third clans left one by one. Although the result was not very satisfactory, and it could even be said that it was far from their original expectations, but in line with the noble principle that “no matter how small the mosquito leg was, it was still meat”, they all received corresponding benefits.
After the three outsiders left, Mu Yu Ling Lan whispered, “Grandfather, can you really sense the location of the Moon Prayer Sacrifice in the future?”
Hui Yan smiled and said in a low voice, “Of course I don’t know. Origin Energy isn’t omnipotent.”
“Ah” Mu Yu Ling Lan couldn’t help but cover her mouth, revealing a surprised expression. Tie Zha’s grandfather also lied. It was hard for her to believe. After a short while, Mu Yu Ling Lan remembered the stakes and couldn’t help but feel a little worried. Then, she asked, “What if they find out?”
“What else can we do?” Hui Yan revealed a helpless expression. He sighed and said, “One day counts as a day …”
Actually, they all knew that if Brandon had really attacked just now, they probably wouldn’t have been able to defeat him. After all, Hui Yan was wearing alloy shackles and was unable to exert his full strength. Moreover, he was unable to display the true power of the sword in this inch of land. The reason why they were able to intimidate each other was partly because Brandon was old and his confidence had declined. On the other hand, Brandon only knew about the fame of the sword, but he did not know about the specific power of the sword. In addition, Colin and Morton were afraid of death. Especially Morton. After being seriously injured by Lena three years ago, he broke through his courage and didn’t dare to risk his life anymore. All in all, under the influence of many factors, Brandon’s judgment had plummeted and was somewhat confused.
Before leaving, Hui Yan brought Mu Yu Ling Lan to the door of the hut and said, “If you have the chance, please tell him that he is not alone in this world, because he has five brothers who are connected to his bloodline.”
Mu Yu Ling Lan nodded solemnly with tears in her eyes.
Hour to Dr3713-05-05, 10:00 a.m.
Silver City Thirteen was bustling with activity. People rushed into the streets, waving silver crosses with white bases and drawing small flags with rainclouds. They marched along the streets, shouting loudly to celebrate their return to the palace of Rain God as sacrifices.
On this day, Muyu Ling Lan officially entered the Divine Hall of Notre Dame in Silver City Diocese 13, becoming the 313th Rain Prayer Sacrifice in Silver City’s history.
