Chapter 105: 105. Go and boil water for me!
Translator: 549690339
Chen Luoyang’s tone didn’t reveal any emotions, but the people from the Demon Cult felt a chill in their hearts.
They bowed to Chen Luoyang in unison.
“This subordinate is guilty. Please calm down, Master.”
Chen Luoyang’s gaze swept across everyone.
It was very awkward. He did not recognize many of their faces…
To him, almost all of these Demon Cult experts were new acquaintances.
Moreover, there were too many people. It was a difficult task to identify these people in a short period of time.
However, since he didn’t know anyone, he realized that the number of people present seemed to be a little small.
According to Azure Dragon 3, Desolate Yuntian, Su Wei, and the others, there should be the First Elder, Fourth Elder, Sixth Elder, Seventh Elder, White Tiger Hall Chief, and at least six high-level Demonic Sect experts at Ancient God
Peak.
There were quite a number of people waiting to welcome him, the sect master, but looking at their positions, there were only four leaders.
“Where is he?” Chen Luoyang asked indifferently.
Among the four people in the lead, a young man replied respectfully, “Reporting to Cult Master, the Great Elder is currently stabilizing the Zhurong Burning Sky Array and suppressing the earth fire at the foot of the mountain. He can’t leave for the time being. The Vermillion Bird is currently leading people to take care of the tunnel. He will come to see Cult Master immediately.”
Chen Luoyang glanced at the youth.
Among the six Demon Sect officials who stayed behind to guard the headquarters, the first, fourth, sixth, and seventh elders of the Senior Elder Pavilion were all old Demon Sect elders.
There were only two relatively young people.
The first was the Chief of White Tiger Palace, one of the leaders of the Young Faction, who was personally promoted by the Cult Master.
The second one was a trusted expert that the Patriarch Sect had recruited and nurtured since he was young. He was the leader of the Vermillion Bird Seven Constellations and the second person in the Vermillion Bird Palace, second only to the Chief.
According to the other party’s words, the Vermilion Bird was not present.
Then the identity of the young man who spoke was no longer a mystery.
Among the four halls of the Demonic Sect, the Chief of White Tiger Hall,”Black Vulture” Nie Guangyuan, was in charge of punishment, interrogation, and imprisonment.
Among the four palaces, the Azure Dragon Palace Lord was the most notorious in the Divine Lands.
Although the White Tiger Hall was known for its ferocity, its reputation in the Divine Lands was relatively small.
However, within the Demonic Sect, when the middle and bottom level disciples mentioned the White Tiger Palace Hall, most of their expressions changed.
The White Tiger Hall was also the Punishment Hall within the Demon Cult, and it was in charge of punishments.
Chief Nie Guangyuan was ruthless and cruel. He was a trusted aide of the Hierarch.
The White Tiger Palace Hall and the Black Turtle Palace Hall even shared a portion of the headquarters ‘internal guard work.
The Azure Dragon Hall mainly gathered information from the outside world.
The White Tiger Palace Hall was secretly monitoring the Demon Cult’s internal intelligence.
Nie Guangyuan was the number one sharp knife in the Sect Leader’s hands, and he had outstanding military achievements.
Previously, when Chen Luoyang browsed through the personal information of the Cult Master provided by Black Pot, his life experiences showed that Nie Guangyuan was one of the capable generals that he had promoted earlier.
Even though the description was very concise, Chen Luoyang could roughly guess that with such a person overseeing the White Tiger Hall, he would definitely wantonly search for the doyen faction’s faults so that it would be convenient for the Sect Master to suppress and manipulate the other party. Chen Luoyang glanced at Seventh Elder Shangguan Song from the corner of his
eye.
Shangguan Song stood quietly at the side.
His previous position as Guardian Zhurong had been stripped off, and he had been demoted from a real Guardian to a nominal Elder. Perhaps the White Tiger Palace was behind this.
When he thought of this, Chen Luoyang immediately thought of another person.
There was a person mentioned in his resume.
Chai Han, the current Fourth Elder of the Senate.
At the same time, he was also the former Chief of the White Tiger Palace.
Nie Guangyuan had taken his place.
This person was also in front of Chen Luoyang.
Chen Luoyang secretly observed carefully and discovered that one of the two old men standing with Seventh Elder Shangguan Song had a head full of red hair. When he swept his gaze across Nie Guangyuan, his gaze contained disdain and loathing.
Looking at his appearance, Chen Luoyang had a rough idea. He knew that this red-haired elder was most likely Fourth Elder Chai Han.
Beside him was a skinny old man in black. He was probably the remaining Sixth Elder, Zhou Pancheng.
“Have you found out the reason?” Chen Luoyang’s gaze swept across the crowd and asked the obvious.
Nie Guangyuan replied softly, ” Please forgive us, Cult Master. We are incompetent. We still don’t know why the Earth Fire suddenly erupted so violently. We can only investigate while doing our best to deal with the aftermath, especially to prevent the Earth Fire lava from erupting again.
Chen Luoyang suddenly thought of something.
The First Elder stabilized the Zhurong Burning Sky Array to dissipate the terrifying explosion of the Earth Fire and Yang Flames. This was understandable.
However, the first night of the Vermilion Bird…Digging a tunnel?
What the hell was this?
Was it an emergency measure prepared by the Demonic Sect to deal with the sudden eruption of the Earth Fire Lava?
Chen Luoyang vaguely recalled something and had a bad premonition.
He wasn’t sure, but he couldn’t ask directly.
After thinking a few times, Chen Luoyang asked in a seemingly casual manner,
How far has the Vermillion Bird gone?”
” The seniors have already prepared a tunnel, ” Nie Guangyuan replied. ” The Vermilion Bird will be able to dig through the originally blocked area without much effort.
The water volume of the Dragon River is large enough, and it’s as majestic as the sea. When the time comes, the river water will flow back. I believe it can help suppress the Earth fire…”
The White Tiger Palace’s Chief didn’t doubt his Sect Master’s true intentions at all. He immediately explained the situation in detail.
After Chen Luoyang heard this, he almost couldn’t maintain his demeanor.
He reacted in time to avoid a dumbfounded expression.
The next moment, when he came back to his senses, he didn’t know whether to laugn or cry.
Otherwise, why did he have a bad feeling just now?
He recalled the Blue Planet in his previous life, where people had also pondered about how to extinguish volcanoes.
In theory, that was almost impossible.
There were many active volcanoes under the sea.
The boiling lava could maintain its burning state even in water. It was truly incompatible with fire and water.
Someone had proposed the idea of drawing seawater into the crater.
However, there was only one result. The lava could not be extinguished. Instead, a large amount of water would evaporate in an instant, forming a violent expansion.
The space inside the mountain pass was limited. A sudden increase in air pressure could cause the rock wall to collapse.
In the end, the mountain collapsed and the lava rushed out.
Extinguishing the lava was not about the water, but the temperature.
However, the requirements were too harsh.
At the very least, it was very difficult for Chen Luoyang to extinguish an active volcano based on the standards of the Blue Planet in his previous life.
If even ordinary volcanoes were like this, then there was no need to even think about super-large volcanoes.
At this moment, the Ancient God Peak under their feet was not near the sea.
However, the Demon Cult’s method of breaking the dike and causing the river to flow backward was really similar.
Chen Luoyang felt his temples throbbing in pain.
According to Nie Guangyuan, this method had been prepared by the predecessors…
The first few generations of founders of this demonic sect were really poisonous!
Chen Luoyang seemed to be able to see the Ancient God Peak exploding beneath his feet once again. This time, even he was blasted into the sky.
“Inform Vermillion Bird to stop.”
Chen Luoyang ordered helplessly.
Everyone in front of him was stunned.
“Silence.” Head Cult Master Chen said word by word, “Go to the kitchen.
Everyone, boil a pot of water yourself. Watch the lid carefully for me..”
