The big man said, "I am Zhong Chao. May I know how to address young master?"

Ding Hong was about to announce his name, but his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He changed his tone and said, "Golden Butterfly."

Zhong Chao was stunned for a moment. Then, he saw the Golden Butterfly Mask on Tang Wulin's face, so he didn't ask for more details. Xiao Yun laughed, "The surname that Young Master asked for is actually not a problem. "Because every generation of Jusan is not a biological one, but an adoptive one. But I don't know if there are any cat tricks among them."

Ding Hong was stunned. He did not pay attention to Zhong Chao's words. Instead, he was puzzled by the word adoption and asked, "Adopt?"

"Yes!" Zhong Chao said, "And these so-called princes and princesses are all orphans that they adopt. As for the reason why, I do not know, because this rule was set by the leader of Fusang City. "

Ding Hong said, "This is quite interesting."

Zhong Chao nodded and said, "That's right! Not to mention any other places in the Country of Fusang, just this itself is enough to make the people of the world gasp in admiration. "

Ding Hong saw that Zhong Chao didn't look like he was here for the Groom Search Competition, so he had some other intentions. He couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhong, are you here to participate in the Groom Search Competition as well?"

"What?" Zhong Chao laughed, "How is that possible?" I'm just here to visit the Fujisan Palace, aren't you? "

Ding Hong said, "Of course it's the same as Big Brother Zhong."

Zhong Chao laughed and said, "You are indeed the same kind of person." Little brother, you probably don't know that very few people have seen this palace before, right? "

"What?" Ding Hongqi said, "Could it be that no one has seen this palace since the Flame Dragon's generation?"

Zhong Chao replied, "Not really. There were a few times when it was open to the public, but that was a long time ago. It's as if it wasn't open to the young ones like us." After saying that, he looked ahead of him carefully and said: "Little brother, do you see that door of profound light up ahead?"

Hearing his words, Ding Hong noticed a purplish black door not far ahead. The door of light revealed a huge triangular shape, surrounded by a huge bronze sack. The door was carved with a giant bird-like monster, perhaps due to the passage of time, but it was hard to tell what it was.

Zhong Chao said as he walked, "Does little brother know what was carved on that door?"

Ding Hong said in a daze, "Could it be that Big Brother Zhong knows about it?"

As if he had thought of something, he waved the mace in his hand and said, "Naturally, I know of the Golden Crow on the Sangang Divine Tree that uses sculptures! A few days ago, I went to great pains to find the Fusang Tree to look for their bad luck. In the end, there were too many of them and they were forced to come out. "

"This …" Hearing his words, Ding Hong stopped looking at him. When Zhong Chao saw that he had stopped, he could not help but feel a little curious. "Little brother, what happened to you?"

Ding Hong coughed dryly. After looking around, he whispered, "Big Brother Zhong, could it be that you don't know that the Divine Bird Golden Crow is now a Divine Beast, and that your actions are now known by outsiders …"

Zhong Chao glared at him and said, "You think that poor golden bird can become a divine beast? That golden bird was only a guard that was protecting the palace. Why should we go respect him? I won't believe that they would dare to do anything to me! "

Ding Hong's heart skipped a beat as he thought of how he would be able to help Elder Brother Zhong if he went with him to look for the Golden Crow. He asked, "Could it be that Elder Brother Zhong wants to look for the Golden Crow again?"

Zhong Chao "Heh" said, "Naturally."

Ding Hong smiled and said, "I wonder if Big Brother Zhong would be interested in travelling with me tomorrow?"

Zhong Chaoqi said, "You want to go too? Well, then, let's go find the bad luck of the Golden Crow. I wonder where we'll meet tomorrow? "

Ding Hong said, "A pavilion on the banks of the Kwai River, a mile away from the north gate of Fusang City."

Zhong Chao nodded. "Okay."

At this moment, they had already arrived at the light gate. The door stood by itself in the darkness, emitting light. It looked rather frightening. The two of them looked at each other, but didn't move forward. Zhong Chao looked at the door for a while, then pulled out a scarecrow from his chest. He bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the scarecrow.

Ding Hongqi asked, "Brother Zhong, what about that scarecrow?"

Zhong Chao laughed, "It's a small toy. If you drip blood on it, you will be able to get a good view of it." It's just that the beauty of it is that it can't move around. " As he said this, he shook his head. Suddenly, he exclaimed in surprise and could not help but say in a daze, "This..."

Seeing his strange appearance, Ding Hong couldn't help but ask, "What happened to Big Brother Zhong?"

Zhong Chao came back to reality and seemed to be deep in thought. Then, he said to Ding Hong, "Little brother, when we entered, you already knew why I was so surprised."

Listening to Zhong Chao's words, Ding Hong's heart was filled with anticipation at the scene that would follow. Why was Zhong Chao so surprised?

After stepping through the door of light, Ding Hong felt the same feeling as before, as if he had been covered by a layer of water. What followed was a blinding sunlight that dazzled the world. The strong light caused Ding Hong and Zhong Chao, who just came out of the darkness, to narrow their eyes. Ding Hong raised his hand to block the light before slowly opening his eyes.

However, when he saw the scenery before his eyes, he couldn't help but be stunned.

They were standing on top of a high, steep rock peak. There were very few trees on the hillside, and most of them were yellow weeds. This was nearly all that could be seen within a few miles of the rocky mountain.

A few lonely trees, weeds spreading everywhere.

On the opposite side of the road, there was a city in a plain. The city was very big, so it was probably not much different from the one in Fu Sang City. Standing at the top of the mountain, one could still see the shadows of people in the city from a distance.

Zhong Chao picked up the scarecrow that was lying alone on the ground and said, "I'm afraid this is another world!"

"Another world?" This was Ding Hong's first time hearing of such a thing. Even though he had heard about the existence of the Ghost Hell Region underground from some books in the Penglai Immortal Pavilion, he had never heard of this other world.

Zhong Chao nodded, then turned around and pointed at the door. "Little brother, take a look at the back of this door."

When Ding Hong heard their words, he hurriedly turned around and discovered that the door of light was like a piece of paper. It did not block the space like the first time he entered the door of light.

Zhong Chao sighed, "I didn't expect this Flame Dragon to occupy such a good place. It actually became a space by itself, but …" His tone changed as he smiled and said, "But the quality of the land here isn't very good. "Hahaha …"

Just the two of them saw such a barren land. Perhaps the quality of the land was not that good, but why were there so many residents in the city?

At this moment, the door of light flashed and a man and a woman walked out. Their clothes were purple and blue. Both of them were dressed extravagantly. Moreover, there was a jade plate hung around their waists with the word "Worry" engraved on it.

When they came out, they were stunned to see two people standing in front of the door. The man frowned and cupped his hands as he said: "I am the Valley Lady of Worryfree, I wonder if the two of you …"

Zhong Chao was also stunned for a moment. He hadn't thought that someone would suddenly come in. He returned the courtesy and smiled, "I am Zhong Chao. This is my friend, Jin Die. She is here to observe Princess Yu Die's match."

When Ding Hong heard this, he also cupped his hands and bowed. "I am Golden Butterfly." In fact, Ding Hong had been observing that woman. That woman had a familiar feeling, but he couldn't figure out where it was.

When the woman heard that, she couldn't help but say, "I'm Violet Shuang." After introducing himself, he took a few more glances at Ding Hong. He felt that Ding Hong's aura was similar to that of an old man he met a few years ago.

Ji Tai also looked at Ding Hong. It was not because he was familiar, but because of his dressing and the strange power he was emitting. However, he only took a few glances and did not look any further. He said to them, "We still have some matters to attend to, so we will be leaving first. Goodbye." Afterwards, the two of them left the area and left by the side.

Zhong Chao looked at the surrounding scenery again and said, "Little brother, let's go as well?"

Ding Hong nodded and said, "Alright."

The two of them went down the stone mountain through the gangway. Beneath the rocky mountain, there were nine people dressed in black darksteel armor, each holding a black halberd in their hands. Those guards' entire bodies were covered by the black iron armor, and even their eyes were not revealed!

After Ding Hong came down, the guard did not move at all. He remained as motionless as a rock. When he saw these people, he thought they were well-trained guards, but when Zhong Chao came down and saw these people, his expression immediately changed. He had been wondering why there was no one to guard such an important passage. In the end, he saw these people in Darksteel Heavy Armor right here.

Seeing his strange expression, Ding Hong curiously asked, "Brother Zhong, what's wrong?"

Zhong Chao only regained his senses after hearing Ding Hong's question. He hurriedly pulled him away from this place. During this time, Ding Hong asked several times why he walked so fast, but Zhong Chao didn't say anything. Only when the two of them were near the Imperial City did he frown and say, "Little brother, do you know why those guards were like that?"

Ding Hong did not notice anything special about the group of guards. Instead, he asked, "What's wrong with them?"

Zhong Chao replied seriously, "Of course not! Several thousand years ago, the Ghost Clan invaded the mortal world once. Little Brother, do you know? "

Ding Hong did not know why he would ask such a question, but he still said, "Of course I know."

Zhong Chao said, "At that time, the Ghost Clan sent four Ghost Kings and ten million Ghost Demons. Among them, there are twelve of the most ferocious Ghost Generals under the Ghost King, and they are the Twelve Generals of Nether Realm. Little brother, you may not be able to recognize them, but I have seen the appearance of these armors in the clan's secret scroll, and those nine guards just now were definitely the armors that the Twelve Generals of Quiet Sky wore! "

"What!" Ding Hong exclaimed.

Zhong Chao said, "Little brother, I actually know the origin of your mask." That was one of the famous magical equipment used by Heavenly Palace Elder Yun Ziran in his early years, the Illusory Aurora! But although this illusion is magical, it can't even compare to a small portion of the armor! "

Ding Hong had just seen him recognize the armor of one of the twelve generals so it was not strange that he could guess that he could recognize the mask. But when he thought about how powerful the armor was, he couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is the effect of this armor? Why is it so exaggerated?"

Zhong Chao sighed and said, "Its greatest effect is that it can completely eliminate all spells in this world that are triggered by Spiritual Energy!"

A light flashed in Ding Hong's eyes and he instantly shouted, "How is this possible!"

When Zhong Chao saw him in such a state, he was also surprised. Back then, when he read the book, he was even more surprised than Ding Hong! He said, "This is true. It is recorded in the book that nearly a million cultivators died in the hands of the Twelve Generals of Nether Realm, including a tall monk from the Great Brahma Monastery who perished."

Ding Hong frowned and said, "Doesn't that mean that with these few sets of armor, Fu Sang's military strength will increase!"

Zhong Chao pondered for a moment before replying, "That is not necessarily true! That set of armor still has a big drawback, which is why I brought you here all the way here! "

"Disadvantages?"

Zhong Chao said, "Yes." Pausing for a moment, he then said with a face full of impatience: "Then the downside is that the person who wears this set of armor must have all seven orifices closed! Furthermore, once you wear this set of armor, you will become a murderer without blinking an eye, and your mind will only be filled with the thoughts of slaughtering and dismembering a corpse! "
