A faint smile appeared on his face.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't afraid.
Wild Lion's expression changed again and again. He had already guessed that if the other party was really the Starry Sky Domain Lord or Starry Sky Domain Emperor, his chances of escaping were close to zero.
Thinking of this, Wild Lion calmed down.
"You're not afraid?"
Seeing the wild lion calm down in an instant, Long Ao was a little surprised.
"Black Wolf, although I don't know your purpose, I know very well that with your strength, if you want to kill me, I won't be able to resist at all."
Smart.
Long Ao had already guessed Wild Lion's thoughts.
Since he could appear in front of Wild Lion without anyone noticing, there was no doubt that he could kill Wild Lion.
Not wanting to dawdle, he went straight to the point.
"Wild Lion, have you heard of Wan Tong?"
Wild Lion was shocked.
Nodding, Wild Lion asked, "I know. Why are you asking about Lord Wan Tong?"
With Wan Tong's status and strength, not to mention Wild Lion, even if a random person came out, it would be impossible for them not to know.
"You don't need to know about this. Tell me what happened three years ago."
Wild Lion's expression changed as if he had guessed something.
He didn't say it out loud, but he had already guessed the other party's identity.
Long Ao, the lunatic who killed the Third Prince, Shen Feng, and didn't put the Heaven Devouring Empire in his eyes.
Wild Lion never imagined that the legendary Long Ao would suddenly appear. He finally understood why the other party was here and why he was asking about Wan Tong. However, it was almost impossible to save Lord Wan Tong.
"Three years ago, Lord Wan Tong suddenly left the empire. His Majesty was furious, but due to Lord Wan Tong's strength, he chose not to act for the time being. However, not long after, Lord Wan Tong took the initiative to return, saying that he had let down His Majesty and the empire."
Hearing this, Long Ao sighed deeply in his heart.
This was his master.
If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have returned.
Only his master.
Long Ao admired his master, but there were times when there was no need to do so. However, everyone had their own principles. Strictly speaking, no one was right or wrong.
"Continue."
Wild Lion nodded and continued, "The entire Empire is also very shocked because no one expected that Lord Wantong would suddenly return. While blaming him, they also respect him."
Long Ao didn't say anything. He just listened quietly.
Because here was the main point.
"Of course, His Majesty is unwilling to kill Lord Wan Tong. He hopes that Lord Wan Tong can repent and be saved. It is strange that Lord Wan Tong did not fight back from the beginning to the end, allowing the Empire to deal with him."
Long Ao had already guessed this.
Since his master had chosen to return to the empire, there was no doubt that his master was prepared to die.
He had already imparted all of his knowledge on formations to him, and he felt that he had let down the Empire and that only death awaited him.
Was Master's way of doing things right or wrong?
Different people have different views.
Some people might say that his master was a fool who was sending himself to death in vain, but some people would say that his master was noble.
However, in Long Ao's heart, he did not agree with his master's actions.
"His Majesty requested Lord Wan Tong to repent. However, Lord Wan Tong said that he would never regret his choice. Thus, Lord Wan Tong was sealed in the Myriad Swords Valley."
Valley of Ten Thousand Swords?
It turned out that his master was sealed in the Myriad Swords Valley.
Wild Lion was smart enough to know that even if he didn't say anything, the other party wouldn't let the matter rest. When the time came and he asked someone else, they would still say it.
If he didn't say anything, he would die.
Rather than letting others say it, he might as well say it himself.
Wild Lion was very clear that the matter of Lord Wan Tong being sealed in the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords was known to all. It was not a secret at all. Because even if others knew about it, would anyone dare to move the earth above the lion's head and pull out the teeth from the tiger's mouth?
No one dared.
Not to mention ordinary people, even the Starry Sky Realm Lord wouldn't dare. No one was willing to offend the Empire for Wan Tong, not even Wan Tong's old friends.
As for Long Ao …
He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Based on his master's strength, it was almost impossible for the Heaven Devouring Empire to seal him. It wasn't that his master was strong, but even if it was a formation, who could resist him?
"I have already told you everything I know. I hope Lord Wan Tong won't kill me."
In Wild Lion's opinion, the other party only wanted to know about Wan Tong. As long as he told them obediently, everything would be fine.
But what happened in the end?
Long Ao would definitely not leave Wild Lion alive. The reason was very simple. He had already guessed that Wild Lion must have guessed his identity. It was better to be safe than sorry. What if Wild Lion revealed his identity?
In order to be sure, Long Ao attacked before Wild Lion could say anything. The difference in strength between them was too great. Wild Lion couldn't resist at all. His body went limp and fell to the ground.
Devouring the primordial spirit of a Grade 9 Starry Sky Realm cultivator wasn't too bad.
Long Ao could be said to have split his forces into two. One side was devouring primordial spirits, hoping to break through to the Starry Sky Realm Lord realm as soon as possible. The other side was letting Long Fu refine a corpse slave or a soul slave. This way, he wouldn't delay either of them.
Long Ao didn't want to stay any longer. He already knew where his master was sealed.
Thousand Swords Valley, as long as one was from the Heaven Devouring Empire, they would know of this place. This was because countless years ago, a Thousand Swords Realm Lord had cultivated here. In just a short hundred years, he had successfully broken through to the Starry Sky Realm Lord.
Three years ago, the number one formation master of the Heaven Devouring Empire, Wan Tong, was sealed in the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords.
The Valley of Ten Thousand Swords was a forbidden ground of the Heaven Devouring Empire. Without the Heaven Devouring Emperor's orders, no one was allowed to enter.
Long Ao captured an outer disciple and easily found out the exact location of the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords.
There was a huge valley about twenty mountains away from the main camp of the Heaven Devouring Empire. Long Ao's expression changed the moment he arrived outside the valley. He could clearly feel the tyrannical sword qi within the valley. What a terrifying sword qi!
Long Ao didn't enter the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords as soon as he arrived outside the valley. He knew nothing about the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords. He knew how terrifying the Valley of Ten Thousand Swords was. As a forbidden area, there was no one guarding it. This meant that the Heaven Devouring Empire was confident that no one would be able to enter.
The more this was the case, the more cautious Long Ao became. Under such circumstances, the slightest carelessness could lead to eternal damnation. Not to mention saving his master, he might not even be able to escape.
