"Backlash?" Lu Chen raised his eyes slightly and looked at the solemn Huo Yan. He asked in a slightly astonished tone.
Huo Yan frowned and said, "What, am I wrong?"
Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "You're thinking too much. Firstly, the demonization of warriors is a kind of witchcraft. If I don't use it, they won't be able to obtain that kind of power."
Huo Yan's expression did not relax. He stared at Lu Chen and said, "But if you continue to do this, there will be more and more warriors of the foreign races. Is there no risk? Once they reach a certain time, their numbers are too many, or they suddenly turn on us after demonizing on the battlefield, what will we do at that time? "
Lu Chen said indifferently, "This is the second thing I wanted to tell you earlier. That Blackflame Rune just happens to be able to control these Divine Wood Race members. Once someone has any disloyal thoughts, just by relying on this thing, I have a way to instantly kill them."
Huo Yan was startled. His face revealed an astonished expression. He said, "What? The Black Flame Seal Pattern has this kind of effect?"
Lu Chen looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. He said, "What do you think? If it wasn't like that, why would I spend so much effort to slowly cast the curse one by one? Right, I forgot to tell you. The true name of the Black Flame Seal Pattern isn't the Black Flame Seal Pattern. It is a variant of witchcraft. Its original name is the 'Black Flame Curse'. "
He smiled. His smile looked calm and serene, but there seemed to be an indescribable throbbing in his eyes at that moment.
"That isn't a seal pattern. It's a kind of curse!"
… …
The atmosphere in the stone house suddenly became a bit colder. No one spoke for a while. Then, after a while, Huo Yan suddenly stood up.
Standing before Lu Chen, his tall stature looked extremely out of place. Furthermore, there was a faint, biting cold murderous aura emanating from his body.
Lu Chen seemed to have sensed something, and he slowly stood up and said, "What's wrong?"
Huo Yan looked deeply at him, his gaze exceptionally sharp, like two daggers staring at Lu Chen. Then, he slowly said, "Did you cast this curse on me and my Black Fire Warriors?"
Lu Chen didn't seem to be frightened by the Barbarian's murderous aura. He even smiled faintly and said calmly, "I only know of one type of Black Flame Curse. Of course it's the same type."
Clang!
A crisp sound rang out. It was Huo Yan's sudden growl. He reached out his hand and pulled out the dagger that was hanging on his waist. The bright light of the dagger was pointed at Lu Chen. On the other side, the Giant Wolf Atsu, who was originally a little lazy, suddenly jumped up. With a roar, it bared its sharp fangs at Huo Yan and pretended to pounce on him.
…
In the dark stone house, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The two sides seemed to be confronting each other, and the situation seemed to be on the verge of exploding.
Huo Yan didn't pay attention to the growling Atsu beside Lu Chen. Instead, he stared at Lu Chen and gripped the dagger in his hand tightly. He said word by word, "Why?"
Lu Chen shook his head and said, "No reason. I've already told you, the Black Flame Curse is just like this. I can use the Fire God's Staff to cast a variant spell to demonize you and increase your strength for a short period of time. But in the end, this kind of curse is still a curse. It naturally has the power to kill. "He looked up at Huo Yan and said," It seems like you don't like it? "
Huo Yan's breathing was slightly hurried, his fangs crossed. He growled and said, "Who would like to have this kind of thing on their body? If that's the case, the lives of me and the other warriors will be in your hands …"
"I can help you get rid of it now." Lu Chen suddenly interrupted him and said calmly.
Huo Yan was stunned for a moment, as if he couldn't react in time. He looked at Lu Chen in shock.
Lu Chen said, "You, and the other Black Fire Warriors, if you need it, I can help you get rid of this Black Flame Curse. But correspondingly, you will lose the power of demonization on the battlefield. "
Huo Yan's expression changed intensely, but he still didn't say anything.
Lu Chen looked at this Barbarian man, a strange light flashed in the depths of his eyes. He said, "I think you're just afraid that I can control everyone's life and death. My power is too great, and I can even control the tribe? In fact, I still stand by my words. Your Barbarian Tribe is not worthy of my attention. I don't care about the things that you value so much. If you're afraid, give me the way to return to the north. I will get rid of all your curses now, then give up everything here and leave by myself. From then on, I will have nothing to do with your Black Fire Tribe. "
Huo Yan looked at Lu Chen. Lu Chen didn't look away either, calmly looking at him.
After a while, Huo Yan's expression changed. Suddenly, he turned his head away. The anger on his face quickly dissipated, and he slowly put away the blade in his hand.
After a while, he said in a low voice, "Let me think about it first."
Lu Chen smiled mockingly, then his expression returned to normal and he nodded.
Huo Yan turned and walked out. Just as he was about to reach the door, he suddenly squatted down and turned back to Lu Chen. "Don't tell anyone about this secret."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "I know."
Huo Yan looked at him deeply, then turned and walked out.
… …
The day's tense atmosphere gradually calmed down as Huo Yan silently walked out of the black-robed priest's stone house and took away all the Black Fire Tribe warriors.
As for Lu Chen, he didn't seem to be affected by this matter. After Huo Yan left, he continued to summon people into the stone house and cast the mysterious Black Fire Seal on them.
No one knew what happened between Huo Yan and the black-robed priest in the dark stone house, or what they talked about.
Iron Bear, Black Bull, and the other Black Fire Tribe warriors were very curious about this. They secretly asked Huo Yan a few times, but Huo Yan kept a straight face and didn't say anything.
With the help of the Black Fire Tribe's powerful divine weapon, the Fire God's Staff, the black-robed priest, Lu Chen, spent a day's work and finally cast the Black Fire Seal on all twenty people. After this, the abnormally tired Lu Chen drove them away. He only said that he would send Ye to summon them again in two days, and that they would know what he was going to do next.
This answer obviously didn't satisfy the twenty Divine Wood Warriors, but facing the black-robed priest, no matter how fierce they were, they didn't dare to be impudent. In the end, they could only leave dispiritedly.
However, many people secretly warned Ye to act according to the situation and try to find out what this terrifying black-robed priest was thinking.
Yes, for this goal, they must do everything they can …
Although they didn't say it explicitly, the meaning was very clear.
Leaf also understood, but she did not seem to have any more emotional fluctuations. At most, she just nodded silently. Finally, after sending everyone off, she slowly walked back to the dark stone house.
Ever since Lu Chen brought Atsu to live here, the stone house had never been lit with any torches or candles. It seemed that this mysterious black-robed priest was very disgusted with things like flames.
When this thought flashed through Ye's mind, she couldn't help but be a little surprised. She thought to herself, "Your tribe is called Black Fire, and you worship a Fire God. Why would the tribe priest hate flames and light?"
But for some reason, when she left the familiar crowd outside and returned to this dark place, when the darkness and shadows quietly blocked the light behind her and the eyes of those people, Ye suddenly felt a sense of relief.
She actually seemed to be relieved from the bottom of her heart.
She was shocked by this feeling, and then she quickly felt a sense of guilt. She secretly clenched her teeth and scolded herself.
"What's wrong with you?" A voice suddenly came from the front. It was the black-robed priest's deep voice in the dark corner. He still sounded a little tired, but he seemed to have noticed something. His eyes penetrated the darkness and fell on Ye. There seemed to be some light in his eyes.
Ye was startled and quickly bowed her head, "I'm fine."
"That's good." Lu Chen said lightly and then closed his eyes. It seemed that he didn't want to pursue the matter, or perhaps he had no interest in the feelings of these barbarians.
Ye, who was a little nervous, was startled for a moment. After a while, she finally understood that her new master seemed to be too lazy to talk to her. She was a little embarrassed and a little cramped. After turning her head to look around, she wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. It seemed that she wanted to stand up and lean against the corner.
Lu Chen suddenly said, "You sleep here."
Ye glanced at him and found that the place Lu Chen pointed to was the farthest wall from her. She was relieved, but soon she remembered the important task entrusted to her by the villagers before she came here.
Those eager eyes, so many people's hope of life and death, all seemed to depend on her alone … even if it might make her sink into the terrible hell to spy on the most terrible person in the world.
Ye felt a little cold, but she still gritted her teeth and quietly cried for herself in the deepest part of her heart. Then she squeezed out a smile and slowly approached the black-robed priest.
"Your Excellency … do you need me to serve you?"
Lu Chen, who had closed his eyes to rest, frowned slightly and opened his eyes again. He found that Ye, who was approaching him, was trembling slightly, but it seemed that she had summoned up her courage and slowly reached out to untie her clothes.
Lu Chen was silent. After a moment, he said, "Don't smile. I think your smile is ugly."
