C508 Palaces in the Valley
"You came for that little girl, right?"
The man in front of them suddenly spoke again. His tone was still as calm as ever, but Lee Hongtian and Ye Guloong were shocked. It was as if their hearts were being pounded by this faint sentence.
Who was this person? What level had his strength reached?
Both of them were silent. It wasn't because they didn't want to say anything, but because they couldn't. The aura of the person in front of them was so strong that it almost made them lose their minds. They didn't have the time or energy to think about anything else.
Seeing that they did not say anything, the man slightly frowned, but then relaxed and smiled: "Speak, what are you guys doing here? From your puzzled eyes, it seems like you do not know anything about that little girl, so why did you come here? "
As this smile spread, Lee Hongtian and Ye Guloong suddenly felt their bodies relax. The feeling of oppression from before disappeared without a trace and they could not help but be greatly astonished. With just a wave of their hands and feet, they could freely switch the aura.
The relaxed Ye Guloong quickly said: "Senior, we came here because of a family called Abe. As for the little miss you spoke of, the two of us really don't know."
Lee Hongtian had only seen Ye Guloong use honorifics against Elder Ji, but at this moment, he did not look down on Ye Guloong's thoughts at all. Instead, he felt that Ye Guloong was very proper in doing so.
The man's eyes were glazed, as if he was thinking about something.
Very quickly, he regained his senses, smiled at the two of them, pointed in a direction, and said: "From here onwards, five kilometers, you can see the location of the Abe Family. However, that place has been rather lively recently, and I hope you two can achieve your goal."
The two of them did not hesitate and immediately bowed towards the man. Lee Hongtian said, "Thank you."
The man laughed again. "No need. When you get there, perhaps you won't be thinking about thanking me, but about hating me. Quickly go, the sky is going to turn dark."
The sky was already dark. The meaning behind the man's words was clear. However, Lee Hongtian and Ye Guloong did not dare to complain and hurriedly left.
There was no helping it, just the aura of the other party alone was enough to prevent the two from having the thought of opposing him. Moreover, the two of them would always be smiling at each other, the two of them would not be stupid enough to rush to their deaths.
After they left, the man laid back down on the ground and suddenly muttered to himself, "That young lady really does have some of that person's demeanor back then. It's a pity that she's a woman, it's not easy after all these years. But Abe's family has grown a little too much in these recent years, and someone was able to frustrate their spirit … "
… ….
… ….
Following the direction pointed by the man, Lee Hongtian and Ye Guloong quickly covered a distance of ten miles.
The man didn't deceive them. Ten miles away, there were indeed traces of a human. However, the scene in front of their eyes caused them to be incomparably shocked.
Both of them walked out of the forest. What appeared in front of them was a cliff that was dozens of feet high. Below the cliff was a valley. In the deepest part of the valley, a huge palace was built on top of a mountain, stretching for several miles.
There were many palaces in this world, but even those that were called miracles were not as large as the one in front of them. At least, that was not the case for Lee Hongtian and Ye Guloong.
At this moment, even though it was night time, the palace was brightly lit, and the entire valley was illuminated as bright as day.
After which, the two became even more shocked.
Above the palace, there was a huge black cloud. However, it was not a real cloud, but the crown of a large tree.
This tree was larger than any of the trees they had seen before. It was even taller than the peak of the mountain, and the crown of the tree eventually covered the entire valley.
If not for the fact that they could see the towering tree trunk at the side of the palace by the light of the lamp, the two of them would have thought that the tree crown was a dark cloud.
After calming their hearts, the two walked along the side of the cliff into the valley. The valley was still filled with forest, but the trees here weren't as large as the one they came from before. They were only a small forest.
There was a path in the forest. Looking at the direction, it should be leading to the palace.
If the man by the water had not deceived them, then the Abe family should have lived in that palace.
It was hard to imagine what kind of status the Abe Family, who had the financial power to construct such a huge palace in this place, possessed in the Luomann Country, or even in the entire world.
But at this point, Lee Hongtian and Ye Guloong had no reason to back down.0
No matter how strong the opponent was, the thirty-eight lives in the northeast base would still be repaid.
The two of them walked along the path in the forest, vigilantly walking forward as they conversed.
Ye Guloong said worriedly, "With just the two of us, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with such a big family. We'll do our best to get some information back and have Elder Ji send more people over."
Lee Hongtian's face did not look good either. He said in a deep voice, "That's for the best, but our strength is not weak at home. Are there any stronger fighters on Elder Ji's side?"
"Even if Elder Ji doesn't have it, there should be more top-notch departments. I don't believe that there is no one stronger than us in the entire Huaxia. The lives of 38 people are not something that can be easily taken." Ye Guloong became a bit excited as he said that.
Lee Hongtian also suddenly became angry. He didn't think that this tiny Luomann Country was actually a crouching tiger and hidden dragon. A middle-aged man sleeping by the water's edge was actually so strong that even he couldn't fight against him.
Adding on the Abe Family, Ye Guloong and himself only saw the tip of the iceberg between the two of them and felt extremely strong.
"No matter how strong they are, we will act according to the circumstances. If possible, we will directly uproot them and also remind those fellows who are eyeing our country covetously from the shadows. We are not that easy to bully!" Lee Hongtian squinted his eyes.
"Well said! "Haha, hearing you say that, I suddenly feel like I can fight ten!" Ye Guloong laughed.
Lee Hongtian also laughed. He had never doubted Ye Guloong's loyalty to Elder Ji and to his country, but at this moment, he got to know Ye Guloong once again. He didn't expect that this guy was also a man of character.
Afterwards, the two continued to move forward. They didn't expect that this patch of forest would look so small on the cliff, but it was actually quite big on the inside. They had walked for more than ten minutes but still hadn't walked out.
Suddenly, the two of them stopped at the same time. They looked at each other, and then, with tacit understanding, leaned against each other as they faced the depths of the forest with vigilance.
Someone was coming!
