Chapter Eighty-Nine: Four Conditions
Chen Jinnan looked at Fang Hong's eyes, and suddenly laughed, laughing very heartily. Fang Hong's refusal did not make him disappointed, but made him more determined to let Fang Hong go to the battle. Originally, Chen Jinnan was just looking at Fang Hong's strength, but now he found that Fang Hong had a calm brain in addition to his strength. Sometimes in battle, the mind is often more important than strength, and it can determine a person's life and death.
In fact, there is a great danger lurking in this covenant war. Because the target of your battle is not each other, but the demons. Chen Jinnan said.
"Demons!"
It's the demon clan again, it's the demon clan who killed Su Lie's parents, and Chen Jinnan found himself to fight the demon clan. I really have a relationship with the demons! I am in the farthest natural forest from the demons, and I can have something to do with them. Fang Hong thought about it and said, "To be specific, how can a battle be related to the demon clan. β
"You are so naΓ―ve that you have come up with such a battle for the sake of a battle of will. Our real aim is to find a cure for Ah Shi. After years of investigation, the demon who injured Ah Xi belonged to the Silver Demon Clan. They are just a small clan on the Heavenly Demon Continent, and their strength is not outstanding, but the unique silver poison is very powerful. Ah Xi is the silver poison in his body, maybe only by finding the silver demon clan can he find a way to detoxify. β
"This Silver Demon Clan lives in the hinterland of the Heavenly Demon Continent, and this covenant battle is for you to go deep into the Heavenly Demon Continent and find a way to detoxify. β
Chen Jinnan's words sounded reasonable, but after Fang Hong's careful thinking, he still found a lot of flaws.
Since you know that the method of detoxification is on the Silver Demon Clan, why do you have to wait for five years, isn't it good to go directly? and why let the students go, you must know that even if Fang Hong is a genius, he will only be a low-level general when he graduates. Although at their age, low-level generals are already very powerful. But that also has to be compared with whom, not to mention the Blue Dragon Academy, just the White Tiger Academy, there are more people who are stronger than him. Like Phantom Moon, Snow Dragon, Snow Phoenix and even City Lord Chen Haonan, the one who is not better than him.
In the face of Fang Hong's doubts, the smile on Chen Jinnan's face was even worse, he looked at Fang Hong with satisfaction, and said, "Your analysis is correct, but things are far from being as simple as you think." Although the Tianwu Continent and the Heavenly Demon Continent are connected, there is a Falling God Mountain Range in the middle, this mountain range has never been crossed by anyone since ancient times, even if some War King powerhouses enter, there is no return. So the only place where the two continents connect is the Canyon of Annihilation. β
"The demons have a heavy army at one end of the canyon, and with the strength of a single person, even if the king of war goes, it will be in vain. Unless war is waged, no hope will be passed. β
Fang Hong lit another cigarette, gave Chen Jinnan a look, and motioned for him to continue. Since the Canyon of Annihilation was so difficult to pass, they would definitely not let themselves die in vain, they must have found some way.
Chen Jinnan shook his hand, and a blood-red fruit appeared in his hand.
"This fruit is called the Blood Devil Fruit, and it was discovered by the eldest brother in the depths of the natural forest. When it was discovered, there were twenty of them, and now there are only six left. The biggest effect of this fruit is to convert the energy in the talisman master's body into the blood evil qi, which is very similar to the blood qi of the blood demon clan, and ordinary people can't distinguish it at all. β
"As long as you eat this fruit, you can disguise yourself as a Blood Demon Clan and sneak into the Heavenly Demon Continent. However, the fruit is only effective when eaten for the first time, and the duration depends on the age of the person who eats it. The younger the age, the longer it lasts. If you eat it after four years, it will last for about half a year. Half a year is just enough time to make a round trip from the Silent Annihilation Canyon to the hinterland of the Heavenly Demon Continent. β
"The demons stationed in the Canyon of Annihilation are not static, but rotated by the three major races. They basically change their defenses every five years, and that's when the defense in the canyon is the most lax and the easiest to blend into. β
Then it all makes sense.
The room was surprisingly quiet, and after Chen Jinnan finished explaining, he didn't speak, but looked at Fang Hong quietly.
Fang Hong smoked cigarette after puff, the cigarette butt flickered on and off, and the sound of the cigarette burning was very clear.
To go or not to go.
Fang Hong was caught in a painful choice. He is no longer alone now, and he has a lot more ties than when he first crossed over. Jiang Hu went to the Spirit Clan, and his whereabouts are unknown. Although Su Xiaomei is fine for now, she doesn't know what will happen in the future. Although Jiang Rou had not confirmed the relationship with him, Fang Hong's heart was already tied to her. Monkey, arrogant, Ji Xiaolan, this is not the focus of his worries, they will still live well without themselves.
With so many entanglements, the road to the demon race is a life of death, which seems to be an easy choice. But Fang Hong didn't make a decision so easily, because there was another person, or a soul, that was his biggest fetter.
Su Lie!
When he was in the Land of Inheritance, Long Aotian had said that Su Lie could only hold out for four years at most. But after Fang Hong came back, he found that Long Aotian might be wrong this time.
Half a year had passed since he accepted the Haoyue inheritance, but Fang Hong really felt that Su Lie's soul was getting weaker and weaker. This can be seen from the number of conversations between Su Lie and Fang Hong. Originally, Su Lie was talking to Fang Hong almost all the time, but then the number of conversations became less and less. To this day, Su Lie couldn't say a few words to Fang Hong for almost a day.
It can be seen how weak Su Lie's soul has become. Four years, this number is too impressive, Fang Hong even feels that Su Lie can't hold on for even a year. What Fang Hong really lacks now is not to quickly improve his strength, but time, time to keep Su Lie alive.
"I have four conditions. β
Fang Hong extinguished the cigarette butt in a pot of unknown plants on the table, and said lightly.
Chen Jinnan looked at the cigarette butts in the flower pot, the corners of his eyes twitched, and said, "Say it! What conditions." β
"First, I need something that can repair my soul. β
As soon as Fang Hong finished saying the first condition, Chen Jinnan's brows furrowed. There are many spiritual things in the world, but there are really not many that can repair the soul. But with the strength of the White Tiger Academy, if it is really at any cost, there is still hope to find it.
What really made Chen Jinnan frown was that Fang Hong didn't want anything else, why did he just want to repair the spiritual object of the soul. This made Chen Jinnan instantly guess the news that Fang Hong's foundation was damaged that Xue Feng had reported to him before. Although Fang Hong later proved that his foundation was not damaged. But it may not be the foundation that he has damaged, but the soul.
The damage to the soul is no less serious than the damage to the foundation. However, it seems that Fang Hong's injury is not serious, otherwise he would have been seen by Chen Jinnan a long time ago.
"No problem, even if I try my best, I'll help you find it. β
The importance of Fang Hong in Chen Jinnan's eyes is self-evident, and the first condition is naturally to be satisfied.
"The second condition, before I entered the White Tiger Academy, I was a member of the Evil Tiger Mercenary Group. Some time ago, Jiang Hu, the leader of the Evil Tiger Mercenary Group, entered the Spirit Clan alone, and his life and death were uncertain. I'd like you to help you find out as much as you can about him. β
Chen Jinnan nodded, agreed, and motioned for Fang Hong to continue.
"The third condition, I have two good friends, one is Jiang Rou, and the other is Su Xiaomei from Qingfeng Academy. If I can't make it back from the Heavenly Demon Continent, I hope you can take care of them. Also, don't tell them that I'm dead, just make up a lie when the time comes. β
Fang Hong was very relaxed when he said this, but Chen Jinnan saw a hint of gloom in his eyes. It was also this glimmer of gloom that made Chen Jinnan feel guilty. As a high-ranking person, he really shouldn't have this kind of emotion. What's more, this is a transaction, Fang Hong has benefited from him, so he should naturally pay the corresponding price.
Before Fang Hong, there were already six people who had died in the Heavenly Demon Continent. These people didn't know until the time of the war that they were going to the demons, and they knew that it was a matter of nine deaths. But they didn't have to refuse, and they didn't mention any conditions. Because they all got the benefits of the White Tiger Academy, they naturally had to work hard for the White Tiger Academy.
Later, they died, and Chen Jinnan only had to lose. Lost, they were unable to find a way to cure Su Axi. As for the loss of his death, I guess there were! But that was never the point.
The reason why he told Fang Hong about the content of the battle now was not because of how outstanding he was, but because he had Luo Hou by his side and arrogance. It is impossible for these two people not to know the grievances between the White Tiger and the Green Dragon, and it is impossible not to know that those who made an appointment to fight never came back alive.
Telling Fang Hong now is because he is afraid that after these two people tell him, Fang Hong will have negative emotions and affect the trip of the demon clan.
Now Fang Hong has not yet gone to the Demon Clan, and he has not even agreed to Chen Jinnan's request. But Chen Jinnan felt guilty because of one of his eyes. Is it because Fang Hong has any charm? Or Chen Jinnan's conscience found out.
Neither.
It's just that Fang Hong's eyes reminded Chen Jinnan of some past events. At that time, they were still in the Blue Dragon Academy, and they were teenagers at that time. At that time, blood-colored flowers fluttered in the wind.
"Hey, that's not too much to ask!"
Fang Hong ruthlessly interrupted Chen Jinnan's thoughts. Chen Jinnan smiled slightly awkwardly and said, "This request is no problem, you say the next one." β
Fang Hong took off the Inheritance Ring given by Long Aotian from his hand and said, "This ring is sealed with a teleportation array. I'll give you the ring before I enter the demon race, and if I die, you activate the ring and go in with a billion gold coins. β
Chen Jinnan looked at the ring in Fang Hong's hand, and a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes. It's not that the ring is peculiar, it's that he's seen it, and he'd seen it more than once. The person wearing this ring was none other than his eldest brother, Chen Haonan, the city lord of White Tiger City.
