455: Rogue Brothers

The youth with the sword had his brows tightly furrowed.

“How terrifying is it?”

“Is it more terrifying than Lilith?”

“Much more terrifying!” the Blind Youth said excitedly.

“I’ve never seen such a young and terrifying monster!”

“Brother, Tianhe Pass cannot be stayed in.”

“Go, leave quickly.”

“The further away from that black-robed man, the better, otherwise it’s too dangerous!”

“Is it really that serious?” The youth with the sword frowned and said, “There are many people in Tianhe Pass who can kill us, why are you so scared just because there’s one more?”

The Blind Youth shook his head and said, “He’s different, he’s really different.”

“He entered here using Space Laws.”

“If we encounter him, we won’t even be able to run away!”

“What’s more, I can confirm that he has already remembered me. Being targeted by such a powerful individual, I can’t even sleep at night!”

“Alright, alright.” The youth with the sword sighed and said, “Then let’s report to the Saint and go to the Seventh War Zone.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a crystal ball.

He placed his hands on the crystal ball and infused a small amount of special power, and the sphere slowly began to glow.

One second, two seconds, three seconds…

Finally, an image appeared in the crystal ball.

A figure wearing an Earth Goddess Church Saint mask sat quietly at a desk, enjoying the breeze that drifted in from outside the wooden window.

He leaned back comfortably on a soft long chair, and asked gently, “Xiao Jian, Xiao Nian, what’s wrong?”

The elder brother’s name was Swordsman Zou.

The younger brother’s name was Ri Tian Nian.

Both names were very strange, but there were many uncultured people among the alien races, and they named themselves whatever sounded pleasing to them.

Swordsman Zou respectfully bowed to the Saint and reported what Ri Tian Nian had just encountered.

After listening, the Saint let out a soft “Oh?” and asked, “Much stronger than any Genius you’ve ever seen?”

“And you’re sure he’s also very young, the same age as Lilith?”

“Confirmed, I’m certain!” Ri Tian Nian nodded quickly.

The Saint rubbed his thumb, his eyes under the mask filled with doubt.

He had recently compiled the latest information on thirty-something alien species, and had people investigate the strength and power of their internal Geniuses.

There were none who were several levels stronger than Lilith.

Could it be the remaining alien species he hadn’t investigated yet?

When did such a Genius appear among the alien races? Kong Fangxiang couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy.

Ri Tian Nian wouldn’t lie about something like this.

He and his brother, Swordsman Zou, were a famous Wuxia duo among the alien races, constantly engaging in activities of robbing the rich to help the poor.

Ri Tian Nian possessed a unique ability; he was naturally undetectable by others, as if his Mental Energy was born at the finish line of others, but this was impossible and could only be explained by a special talent, allowing him to easily detect what was inside other people’s homes.

However, this inscrutable talent also brought him a major flaw.

His Physical Body was too weak, as fragile as a piece of paper, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.

Any strong alien giving him a punch could potentially kill him on the spot.

This led to Ri Tian Nian’s personality being very introverted and timid; only when he was with his brother would he feel at ease.

His brother, Swordsman Zou, was even more special.

Kong Fangxiang had given him a Human Race sword art to learn, and he actually learned it to the Realm of Perfection in just two hours.

It was as if he was born for the sword.

He had only seen such a talent in Ying Zheng.

However, because the place where the two lived since childhood was too poor and remote, they simply did not have enough resources to grow up when they were young.

Therefore, Swordsman Zou’s Realm and strength, in reality, couldn’t even reach the tail end of the Demon King Group.

However, Swordsman Zou had a chivalrous heart; he liked to read Wuxia novels that flowed in from the Human Race, chopping trees with a wooden sword while reading, reading day and night, and from a young age, he would shout the phrase, “A true Wuxia serves the country and its people.”

So, he always let his younger brother scout ahead, checking which families were oppressing the common people.

If they could defeat them, they would go in the middle of the night, kick their butts, throw their treasury into the sky, and let the people of that city experience what it was like to have a rain of money.

They also let the people of that city know that the Wuxia had arrived, and their good days were coming too!

After Kong Fangxiang learned this information, he ordered that these two brothers must be found.

These were super talents.

Especially Ri Tian Nian, who could hear what the high-ranking alien officials were discussing, even through countless isolation doors.

And even Martial Saints and even Martial Gods could not detect his presence.

So, Old Kong recruited these two brothers, bringing them into the organization to become secret members of the Earth Goddess Church.

Now that the war in the Eighth War Zone was the most intense, he sent them to gather intelligence.

As a result… they encountered a mysterious black-robed man.

And were actually targeted?

Wait a minute…

“You just said that a flame was burning inside that black-robed man, right?” Kong Fangxiang asked with a frown.

Ri Tian Nian said in a deep voice, “Yes!”

“Then… what color was the flame?”

Ri Tian Nian was stunned for a moment, and said, “Red?”

“Golden?”

“It doesn’t seem to be, it’s a bit redder than red, but not that red.”

“I… I’m not well-read, I can’t think of how to describe that color.”

Kong Fangxiang took a deep breath and asked, “Scarlet, right?”

Upon hearing this, Ri Tian Nian immediately nodded excitedly and said, “Scarlet, yes, yes, yes, it’s scarlet!”

“Scarlet flames!”

“Scarlet flames?”

When Kong Fangxiang asked this rhetorical question, his voice inexplicably trembled.

Ri Tian Nian and Swordsman Zou exchanged glances, both a little puzzled.

Did I hear wrong?

The omnipotent Saint is trembling?

“Ah… yes, scarlet flames.” Ri Tian Nian swallowed and replied again.

“Good… scarlet flames.” Kong Fangxiang exhaled a long breath, then his emotions suddenly became somewhat agitated.

“Good, good, good, scarlet flames are good…”,

“Good…”

This excited, even trembling, laughter startled Ri Tian Nian and Swordsman Zou.

Suddenly.

Kong Fangxiang suddenly cleared his throat and said, “I was a bit out of sorts just now.”

“It’s nothing.”

“Now that the Eighth War Zone is over, you two can find any other war zone to go to.”

“If you encounter that black-clothed man again, remember to contact me.”

“Immediately, right away, contact me!”

“Hanging up!”

As soon as the words fell, the light on the crystal ball instantly dissipated, becoming dim.

Ri Tian Nian and Swordsman Zou, both brothers, were a little confused.

Why was the Saint so mysterious today?

Never mind.

The two brothers immediately packed their things, preparing to go to another war zone.

At this moment, Kong Fangxiang, who had urgently hung up the communication, was still sitting in his original spot, enjoying the gentle breeze of the foreign land.

He leaned back in his chair, head tilted back, staring blankly at the ceiling, still muttering: “Scarlet flames… good… good…”

He seemed to have become an emotionless repeating machine.

But unknowingly, his vision became increasingly blurry.

Suddenly, two streams of clear tears flowed down from beneath the sacred mask, which was carved with golden patterns, tracing down his neck and becoming increasingly turbulent.

Yet, he didn’t even bother to wipe them away.

A mask could conceal all emotional changes caused by expressions.

But at this moment, how could Kong Fangxiang’s emotions be hidden by a mere mask?

Finally, he stopped repeating and whispered tremblingly, “It’s good… that he’s back.”
