Seeing the reaction of the Yate Conglomerate's staff, Tie Tuo and the other realm five fighters exchanged glances and shook their heads. They had all heard of the intense inheritance dispute in the Yate Conglomerate.
It was said that the current CEO of the Yate Conglomerate was dissolute by nature and had more than 30 illegitimate children, many of whom were talented. It was normal for them to hire assassins to fight for the inheritance.
This assassin had set up such an exquisite trap, but he had only crippled Fu Mo's genitals. It was easy to understand his intentions.
"The valley maze is complicated. Even if we go in, it will be difficult to find Fu Mo's exact location. How did this assassin find him? "
Master Feng frowned and looked at Deacon Jono, wondering if it was an insider who leaked the information.
Fat Eagle Deacon immediately swore in the name of the Sacred Palace that it could not be someone from the inner circle. After the valley was opened, only a realm six peerless master of the Sacred Palace with six sacred marks could accurately find out the movements of the people in the valley.
However, would a level-six cultivator take action against a mere Fu Mo? And with such a sinister attack.
Of course, it was impossible.
Master Feng nodded. This made sense. This assassin was skilled enough. From the course of events, this was a top-notch assassin from the Western Continent.
"No matter what, this happened in the holy land. The Holy Palace must give an explanation," General Tie Tuo said in a low voice.
Deacon Jono nodded, indicating that the Holy Palace would do its best to treat Fu Mo and compensate him generously.
A moment later —
On the plaza, the crowd understood the conclusion of this incident and immediately began to discuss it. It was very lively, and all kinds of gossip spread like wildfire. Some people were very excited that there would be more gossip to eat later.
Hayashi River, on the other hand, was in a daze. This was different from what he had expected!
He had thought that after this incident, the valley would be sealed and everyone in the plaza would be interrogated. He had even prepared a set of excuses.
How did it turn into a cruel struggle for the inheritance of the Yate Conglomerate, and Fu Mo became the sacrificial lamb?
"Such a skilled assassin was able to track Fu Mo's location in the valley maze. Looks like I have to be careful. It would be great if I could contact him. Such a skilled assassin costs a million gold coins. I wonder which bastard of the Yate Conglomerate spent a lot of money to hire him. "
Yi Xing murmured with a serious face.
Hayashi River opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. Why was the wind getting more and more slanted? He had suddenly become a mysterious top-notch assassin.
A million gold coins as a commission!
Thinking of this, Hayashi River felt that he had suffered a loss. He had only collected such a small amount of interest from Fu Mo, and those potions and materials were at most a few hundred thousand gold coins.
At this time, Deacon Jono, Master Feng, and a group of people walked out of the emergency room. After seeing Yi Xing, the four level-five powerhouses nodded slightly.
"Miss Yi Xing."
"Miss Yi Xing, would you like to come over and have a seat?"
When the students behind the four level-five elites saw Yi Xing, their eyes lit up, and they did not hide their admiration for him.
When these people saw Lin Chuan and his handsome and devilishly charming face, as well as the Mechanic badge on his chest, their faces darkened, and they were filled with intense hostility.
"Can these male animals stop? To think that you're the students of a level-five elite …"
Hayashi River frowned inwardly. He noticed that among these people, only Ken had a natural expression and a determined look in his eyes.
This Ken is far more ambitious than the others. His future achievements will definitely far exceed these people, Hayashi River thought.
Yi Xing frowned slightly and held onto Hayashi River's arm. "My boyfriend is a Mechanic, and he wants to visit the Holy Land's Holy Monument. Excuse me."
This was exactly what Hayashi River wanted. He glanced at these people indifferently, then turned around stubbornly and left with Yi Xing.
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, White Werewolf Denton coldly snorted. "Girls these days are too vain. They all like to find a Mechanic as a partner. That brat's face is covered in makeup. His future achievements in the Mechanic field will probably be limited."
Hearing this, the two level-five White Dwarfs fell silent. They often came to the Blue Agate Winery to drink, so they could not express their opinions. Otherwise, they would not be able to drink anymore in the future.
Master Feng smiled and did not speak. He actually felt that this young couple was a good match because this Mechanic was a human.
…
In a corner of the Holy Land, a Holy Monument stood tall.
"We finally got rid of those annoying fellows. You did well today."
After leaving the square, Yi Xing smiled and praised Hayashi River's response. She pointed to the front and said, "That's one of the six Holy Monuments. I don't think the Holy Imprint on it will be of much help to you Mechanics."
Yi Xing was very clear about the history of the six Holy Monuments. They were formed by the Holy Palace's level-six peerless powerhouses with their own power. They claimed that they were miracles, and there were no mechanical devices on the monuments.
"Many of the Holy Palace's mechanical devices are Heart Energy Equipment. When combined with the Holy Palace's combat techniques, their power is multiplied. This is also a way for the Holy Palace to develop believers …"
Yi Xing said with assurance.
As the successor of the Blue Star Conglomerate, she was very knowledgeable and knew about all the organizations on the continent.
Hayashi River nodded. He had come to visit the Holy Monument because he wanted to observe the Holy Imprint up close and see if he could peek into some of the mysteries of the Holy Soul Energy.
He had always lacked the ability to use his Soul Energy, but he had no way to learn it.
After all, this kind of usage was a secret that was not passed on to others. It was not that easy to obtain.
"So this is the Holy Imprint …"
Arriving before the monument, Hayashi River looked at the imprint on it. It was a divine script created by the Holy Palace.
In his eyes, it was a materialized form of Soul Energy, and the power contained within it was immense.
Even an ordinary person could see the Holy Light. No wonder the Holy Palace dared to claim that this was a miracle.
On his forehead, the image of an eyeball appeared. It glowed faintly and produced a suction force, trying to absorb the Holy Soul Energy within the monument.
However, the Holy Imprint's Soul Energy was too condensed. Even though Hayashi River's Soul Energy was of a higher grade, he could not absorb even a tiny bit.
However, Hayashi River still noticed some clues. The Holy Imprint on the monument had an amplifying effect on the ball of light in the deepest part of the valley.
This discovery puzzled Hayashi River. Who was the Holy Palace targeting by setting up such a trap?
Yi Xing?
Or the students of four level-five powerhouses?
Thinking of this, Hayashi River asked, "Sister Yi Xing, are you really going to give up on something as good as the Fruit of the Spirit? With your strength, will the last stage in the valley be dangerous?
Or are you going to give face to those level-five powerhouses and give the Fruit of the Spirit to them …? "
Hearing this, Yi Xing's beautiful eyes widened. "You're just a mechanic. How would you understand the power struggles between the powerhouses on the continent …?"
"The danger of the last stage is actually different from what you think. There's a special statue of the Holy Palace there. If you trigger the mechanism, you'll easily be brainwashed by the Holy Palace's teachings."
"But it's not a big deal. The White Dwarf Kingdom already has a way to minimize the risk of brainwashing …"
Looking at the monument, she sighed. "I'm a descendant of the Deep Blue Sea Tribe. To the White Dwarf Tribe, I still belong to the Western Continent. The royal family doesn't trust me that much. "
"In the eyes of the Western Continent's races, the Deep Blue Sea Tribe isn't considered a race of the Western Continent. Now that they've taken root in the White Dwarf Kingdom, the Holy Palace naturally doesn't want the Fruit of the Spirit to fall into my hands."
Hayashi River nodded in understanding. He knew about the Deep Blue Sea Tribe's past. It was normal for both sides to not trust each other on such matters.
At this moment, Hayashi River finally understood. The danger in the depths of the valley was actually the brainwashing of the Holy Palace's teachings.
However, for him to feel threatened, the setup this time was probably much stronger than before.
But could it be that the Sacred Palace had made such an arrangement to deal with the students of the fifth realm?
Although those students were geniuses of the first echelon, they weren't truly top-notch geniuses. If they wanted to target them, they should be targeting the descendants of a battle-type race like Yi Xing.
At this moment, Yi Xing said, "I'm obviously not giving the Fruit of the Spirit to the students of General Tie Tuo and the others. They aren't qualified yet.
"I'm giving it to the successor of the Lionheart Tribe, the Little Lion King who just turned 20. In the future, he'll be the main force in the Battle of the Kings of the Eastern and Western Continents.
"I heard that not long ago, the legendary genius' Ling 'passed away, and the Little Lion King's will was a little depressed. He's always treated' Ling 'as his greatest opponent and goal to chase after. This matter shortened the period of his Psychic Force's eruption.
"Compared to a businessman like me, the Little Lion King needs the Fruit of the Spirit more …
"Hayashi River, are you listening?"
Yi Xing turned his head and found that Hayashi River was a little distracted.
Hayashi River was in a daze. His memories drifted away in an instant, and he remembered two years ago …
…
On the Alliance College's virtual platform.
In a fiery red forest, a golden-haired, lion-eyed, strong-built man filled with explosive power stood there.
Looking at Hayashi River opposite him, he laughed and said, "Ling! In half a month, I'll graduate. I want to use this victory as the best gift for me to leave the virtual platform! "
"Oh. Little Lion King, are you graduating? I can let you win this battle … "Hayashi River said.
"Get lost … I don't need you to let me win! I've always been stronger than you … "The golden-haired young man let out a long roar like a lion's.
In that battle, the golden-haired man still lost …
"Damn it! If this was in reality, you definitely wouldn't be my opponent. I broke through the early stage of Psychic Force at the age of 16, and I'm also a pure-blooded descendant of the Lionheart Clan. I'm the peerless genius who's most likely to awaken the Lionheart … "
In the forest, the golden-haired man lay on the ground, exhausted, and said so.
Opposite him, Hayashi River leaned against a tree and said, "These are all excuses that losers often find. Please maintain your bearing as the Little Lion King."
"What bullsh * t bearing! I've already lost for two years, why won't you let me win once … "
"If we meet in reality, I'll definitely let you win once."
"Okay. 'Ling', it's settled. When the time comes, you're not allowed to fight back. I want to beat you to my heart's content. "
After a long time …
The golden-haired man got up, waved his hand, and bid farewell to Hayashi River.
Before he left, he pondered for a long time and said, "'Ling', do you know what happened to the three geniuses ten years ago …"
"Who? The three geniuses? "Hayashi River was a little curious.
"You don't know?"
The golden-haired man frowned slightly, revealing a worried expression. "If you encounter a bigger problem in the future when you graduate, you can look for me at the White Dwarf Kingdom's Lionheart Ridge. I can at least protect you for a while. Don't worry, I, the Little Lion King, will never betray my friends. "
Hayashi River smiled but did not say anything.
As for the Little Lion King's last words, he had never understood it when he was in the academy. It was only after he heard Su Duanpo's words in the White Arrow Harbor that Hayashi River understood …
