"Lie Xin, continue. Remember the feeling of the fire. Imagine yourself as a volcano, the calm before an eruption … Lie Guang, shut your mouth and come with me for a while." Odin could not stand this disciple of his anymore. Perhaps it was time to tell him.
"Yes, Master. Sister, I'll be back soon. Good luck!"
Lie Guang exhaled deeply, and stopped his training. After leaving Elite Academy, he thought that he could finally take a breather. Actually, he had worked hard in Elite Academy, except that he usually had a sloppy personality. In the end, after returning to Mars, he had been summoned by his master. These days had been a little painful.
"Master, is there something good? Can I eat now?"
Odin looked deeply at Lie Guang. "Let's go."
Lie Guang grinned as he followed behind. After a few turns, they arrived at Odin's retreat.
This was the first time he had entered Odin's retreat. He looked around curiously. The room was very big, but the decorations were very simple. There was not a single extra piece of furniture. In the middle of the room, there was a fire cauldron. It was very similar to the one in the Lie family's secret room, except that it looked a little older and more compact. On the surface, there was a strange glow that made people feel very warm.
"This is the Lie Inferno Mother Cauldron. The one in the Lie family is a replica. Sit down." Odin pointed to a seat at the side.
Odin's expression was very serious. In Lie Guang's impression, every time his master had such an expression, it was definitely something very important. Except he did not know why he had come to him so seriously.
The smile on Lie Guang's face disappeared, replaced by seriousness. "Yes, Master."
"Lie Guang, have you ever had doubts? Why were you adopted by the Lie family?" Odin looked at Lie Guang, his eyes filled with a trace of sadness.
Ping!
This question struck the deepest part of Lie Guang's heart. There were so many orphans, why him? How many times had he asked himself, was he really the luckier one?
"Master, I've always wanted to know." Surprisingly, Lie Guang was surprisingly calm.
"Actually, it wasn't a coincidence that the Lie family found you. The Sage Sect spent a lot of effort to find you. Destiny is about to open, and the era of the Solar System's recovery has arrived. We have waited for a very, very long time, but it is a pity that this generation of the Lie family's bloodline only has Lie Xin. However, she is not perfect. The ancestor of the Lie family who mastered the Lie Flame Technique was a man," Odin said, staring at Lie Guang.
"As for Mars, in order to truly keep up with the pace of the rise of the Solar System and walk at the forefront of the sequence, the current Lie Xin is far from being able to shoulder the heavy burden. Moreover, we hope that Mars will no longer be a vassal, but will seize this opportunity to create a new era. I think that after returning from Elite Academy X, all of you should have felt the difference."
A miracle did not happen. Earth and the Moon were both showing signs of rising, but Mars was lagging behind.
"Master, I'm sorry. I have failed to live up to your expectations." Lie Guang said.
Lie Xin had the talent, the ability, and the wisdom. The only thing that limited her was the Lie Flame Technique.
And for Mars to rise, it had to be the Lie Flame Technique. This was a spiritual symbol that was carved into the bones of every Martian. She was the heir of fire.
Lie Guang lowered his head. "Sister has tried her best. In Elite Academy X, she has never relaxed …"
Odin acted as though he did not hear. "The Sage Sect spent 10 years to find a boy with a natural fire constitution in the entire Mars, no, the entire Solar System. A natural fire constitution is the only constitution that can perfectly transfer the Lie Flame Technique. Have you heard of the Yin Yang Fire Fusion Technique of the Lie Flame Technique?"
Lie Guang's face paled. From the start, the Lie family had never expected Lie Guang to become a great person. This was because he did not have the Lie family bloodline. The Yin Yang Fire Fusion Technique was basically a cauldron. Everything he had trained was prepared for someone else.
Odin looked at Lie Guang, but very quickly Lie Guang's face broke into a smile. "I am willing."
Lie Guang's straightforward smile gave the serious Odin pause. At his age, of course he could tell that this was a genuine smile. "Lie Guang, you have to be clear. Once it is completed, you will lose all your power. You may even be weaker than a normal person."
"Haha, Master, actually these years have been worth it. What will come will come. I think that even if I am crippled, the Lie family and the Sage Sect will not leave me alone." Lie Guang's smile made Odin feel a stab of pain.
As his own disciple, how could Odin not have feelings? But this was predestined from the start. Odin had also participated in this plan. It was precisely because he felt that it was unfair to Lie Guang that he had accepted him as a disciple. But in the end, he found that the more feelings he had, the more pain he felt.
"Master, don't be sad for me. Actually, this is quite good. I have always wanted to live a life of eating, drinking, and playing. Killing two birds with one stone. Besides, the more powerful Sister is, the better off I will be in the future." Lie Guang turned around to persuade Odin. "What to do? You have to hide it from Sister, or she will not agree."
Odin nodded. This had been prepared long ago. If Lie Xin could break through the bottleneck, this was a step that Odin did not want to take. But reality had proven that they were falling behind. If this dragged on, it was very likely that even their last chance would be lost.
"… You go and prepare."
"Yes, Master. Give me a few days. Let me enjoy it." Lie Guang smiled.
Leaving Odin's room, Lie Guang looked at the sunlight outside. It was especially glaring.
He had been dispirited before. He had fallen because he knew that he had to repay what he had. Even if it was his life. If it had been someone else, Lie Guang would have thought of ways to resist, even if the outcome was not good. But that person was Lie Xin. The Lie family was nothing. What did Mars have to do with him? But Lie Xin, the only person in the Lie family who cared about him and treated him like family …
If he could help Lie Xin fulfill her wish, his life would be worth it.
Although Wang Zheng was on vacation, Xiao Fei did not intend to give up on this free labor. With an expert like Wang Zheng back, if he did not give a few lessons to the students, it would be a waste. Principal Xiao's plan was well thought out.
Yao Ailun and Chen Xiu were both very busy. Wang Zheng carried his backpack and wandered around Shangjing alone. He had lived in this city for so many years. Although he had not left for long, he realized that it had changed a lot upon his return.
The bookstore had not changed much. The new owner was running it well. Wang Zheng had passed by to see if there was any news from the Old Merchant, but there was none. The staff was very enthusiastic, encouraging him to buy things. Wang Zheng was tricked into buying a few books in a daze.
After eating, Wang Zheng suddenly realized that he was not used to a life of leisure. Perhaps he was suited to that kind of adventure and excitement. Peace was not fated with him. At most, he could steal half a day of leisure.
He wandered along the way, and unexpectedly came to the entrance of the Internet cafe. So this place had occupied a very important place in his memories.
It had been a long time since he had been here. The chubby boss was no longer around. The girl at the front desk was very beautiful, and the decorations were even more luxurious. It seemed like the popularity of CT had made the boss rich.
Wang Zheng chose a spot. The internet cafe was bustling with activity. It was now divided into three main areas. One was the viewing hall, one was the professional hall, and the last was the player's free hall. The newly opened professional hall was equipped with new equipment, and it was specially prepared for those amateur experts. Now that CT amateur leagues were also held, the whole place was very lively. When there were professional competitions, people would watch the professional competitions. When there were no professional competitions, the amateur leagues were also very popular.
"Sun Tianxiong is the best now. It's time for the prince to retire!"
"F * ck off. The prince can still fight for another ten years. Just the experience alone is enough for Sun Tianxiong to learn for a lifetime."
Sun Tianxiong is the number one expert of the Earth region. His individual win rate in the Pro League is as high as 91%. How much is Prince? "
"Motherf * cker, the Prince is a contribution to the team! “
"Only the old can only contribute to the team. What era is this? This is the era where heroes are king. In this celebrity invitational, I bet everything on Mu Guang. Regardless of popularity or win rate, he is the highest!"
A group of players were arguing in the hall. This celebrity invitational was officially sponsored by CT, and they had given a lot of publicity to attract some entertainment stars. There were two major prizes. The first was naturally the final winner, the champion prize. The other was the popularity prize.
That depended on the host's reputation, and whether or not he could invite a popular big shot.
Mu Guang was currently the most popular commentator. He could be said to be the rising star of the post-Skull and Old Deer era. His commentating style was sharp, he was handsome, and he was highly educated. He could even be considered a star. His battle level was also relatively high, and he could be considered to be at the professional level.
Mu Guang's nickname was God's Eye, but in terms of popularity, he was like Old Deer when he was at his peak. He also had a good relationship with the professional circle, so this time he invited the most popular professional player, Sun Tianxiong. His ID was I Lord of the Hegemony. Daring to use such an ID in the professional circle showed his confidence. Those who liked him all liked to call him Overlord.
As for the celebrity contestant, Mu Guang invited Zhang Ziyan, who was very popular in the Earth entertainment circle. She had just won the Solar System Best Supporting Actress Award, and was very popular. She was the sweet and cute type, and usually liked to play CT. She was also one of CT's spokespeople. Mu Guang being able to invite her to join his team was also very impressive.
This lineup was enough to kill everything in this celebrity invitational.
Besides Mu Guang, there were also a few other hosts who were the center of attention. One of them was Yao Ailun. Yao Ailun and Old Deer were both guest stars, but in reality, the main character was Old Deer. Once he and Old Deer were separated, he would not receive as much attention. But because of Old Deer's high regard, Yao Ailun had also been given a lot of trouble.
Prince had already promised Yao Ailun. No matter what, even if he could not beat them, Prince's popularity was still there, and he had enough status in the community. Prince had contributed a lot to the development of Earth's CT, so even though the others had retired, Prince was still there. In name, he was the leader, but he only played a supporting role in the team.
Actually, many people felt that Prince should retire, and retire with success. Why should he be beaten by a bunch of newcomers? How embarrassing.
When the prince heard this, he only smiled and did not reply.
When Yao Ailun had looked for him, Prince had agreed without hesitation. This was considered a pass, but he was still missing a star.
