Chapter 1257: The Gathering of the Armies (3)
Once Hua Xia’s commander returned to the tentage, Meng Fusheng, Linghe and Lu Shaoqing who were sitting inside immediately went forward.
“How was it? How was it? Did that scum Xing Hun find out anything?” Meng Fusheng asked urgently.
Lu Shaoqing and Linghe at the side looked at each other and smiled as they shook their heads.
“Leader Meng, if Grand Tutor Xing Hun had discovered our general, would he still be able to return alive?” Duanmu Hongru looked at Meng Fusheng and said.
Hua Xia’s commander laughed softly and removed his mask. He took out a porcelain bottle and poured the medicine inside onto his hands to remove the hideous scars on his face. Under the disguise was Chi Tong’s handsome-looking face.
“The thing prepared by the Queen is something that ordinary people could not tell. Right from the start, Xing Hun and Long Yue had been suspicious about me, but after seeing my look, they were no longer doubtful.” Chi Tong swallowed another elixir and his hoarse voice returned to normal.
Chi Tong was originally the young general of Sa Er and his reputation as a genius had been passed on throughout the entire Kingdom of Sa Er, so he had quite many interactions with Long Yue and Xing Hun. Those years, when Kingdom of Xi was in trouble, it was Xing Hun who had given the command to kill him and his army!
Publicly, the Divine Temple had been sly and overly ambitious, whereas personally, Xing Hun had caused Chi Tong to lose many comrades in the Kingdom of Xi during those years and it was a score that he would have to make Xing Hun repay!
The reason he had risked his life to go personally, was solely to determine whether they would find his identity out.
Just based on the outcome, it seemed to be decently desirable.
“That’s good, that’s good. Like what I said, how could anyone tell the thing that the Queen had given us?” Meng Fusheng finally heaved a sigh of relief and he did not forget to sing high praises for Ji Fengyan.
Everyone was already used to Meng Fusheng’s personality. Previously, the Blood Tribe seemed to be brutal and ruthless, but after being suppressed by Ji Fengyan, they had all become as docile as sheep. Moreover, with Ji Fengyan protecting them, they could finally reveal their true personalities.
“What did the Divine Temple say?” Linghe was still more reliable than the rest.
In fact, no one was suitable as the role of a commander, so they were assured when they gave all the powers to Chi Tong. Only Chi Tong could tell apart Xing Hun’s schemes.
“Tomorrow we shall set off towards the Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed. The Divine Temple’s plan this time is completely the same as what the Queen had predicted. They wanted to make use of the Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed to force the Demon Clans to fight against humans.” Chi Tong frowned slightly, and his expression did not seem optimistic.
The Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed was the life of the demons. Once there was any sign of attack, all the demons would gather to defend. Not only would they cannot harm the Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed, just by getting close to it would land them in demon attacks.
Moreover, the exact location of the Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed was still a mystery. Only the first terminator who had obtained the branch from the Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed knew its location, but he had also refused to talk about it initially, so the location had yet to be known.
“The Divine Temple must have found the exact location of the Tree of the Flowing Bloodshed, otherwise they would not summon so many people to take action,” Lu Shaoqing thought and said.
“The Queen has sent us instructions to not move. I believe that she has made her preparations and we just have to watch the situation closely,” Chi Tong said.
