Tycoon War God

”Lin Wudi?”

The two Divine Envoys were somewhat surprised upon hearing the name.

The name seemed overly imposing.

To bear the name ’invincible,’ isn’t he afraid of being defeated?

The two exchanged glances, thinking that among the three Divine Spirits, Lin Wudi is likely the key figure.

Just from the name, it doesn’t seem ordinary.

”Then we must trouble Lord Mayor!” The Divine Envoys remained amiable.

Lord Kong Luo observed them but remained vigilant.

Even though the pair now appeared kind-hearted, almost humble.

It was all a facade.

Should a conflict arise, these two would be more violent than anyone.

The Hidden King Lineage is almost synonymous with madness.

Their mentality differs completely from ordinary cultivators in the Stone Gate Realm.

”Please take a seat, Divine Envoys; those two will likely arrive shortly...”

Lord Kong Luo offered Spirit Nectar, attempting to probe them.

Yet the previously conversable Divine Envoys were now tight-lipped, deflecting every inquiry with other topics.

Half an incense stick later, Mu Gui and Liu Yuan arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion hall.

In the past two days, they had enjoyed the best treatment Flowing Sand City had to offer, extending their lifespan considerably.

Liu Yuan now appeared merely middle-aged.

Even Mu Gui seemed notably younger.

”The two of you...”

Upon seeing Mu Gui and Liu Yuan, even Lord Kong Luo rose to greet them.

These two accompanied Lin Wudi into the Forbidden Sand Sea and were closest to him.

People would naturally show them some courtesy due to Lin Wudi.

”What matter does the Lord Mayor summon us for?”

Mu Gui and Liu Yuan bowed respectfully.

Though others treated them with respect, they didn’t lose their proprieties.

No matter how polite, Kong Luo was a Second Tribulation Ancestor, while they were merely at the Peak of Integration.

”The two of you...”

Lord Kong Luo was about to introduce the Divine Envoys when they suddenly stood.

Kong Luo and four Deputy City Lords immediately became alert, ready to unleash their Tribulation Thunder Thought!

Should the Hidden King’s men dare move aggressively, they would protect Mu Gui and Liu Yuan even if it means offending the Hidden King.

Anyone around Lin Wudi is absolutely not to be compromised.

Thud!

Thud!

An unexpected scene unfolded in the great hall.

Both Divine Envoys, twice visited by Thunder Tribulations, knelt before Mu Gui and Liu Yuan.

”Greetings, Divine Spirits!”

The two envoys prostrated themselves in a grand ceremonial salute.

Neither Mu Gui nor Liu Yuan, nor even Kong Luo, were prepared for this.

These Divine Envoys were Second Tribulation Powerhouses, yet they were bowing to those at the Peak of Integration.

It seemed excessive!

”Madmen!”

”Those of the Hidden King Lineage are indeed mentally unstable!”

The five City Lords exchanged glances, passing messages, each one derisive but their wariness somewhat eased.

Judging by the situation, these Divine Envoys likely won’t act violently.

Liu Yuan stared blankly at the kneeling pair, momentarily unable to react.

Though they’ve been respectfully treated in Flowing Sand City, it wasn’t to this extent.

The two before them were Second Tribulation Powerhouses, yet they knelt.

Even taking Lin Wudi into account, it was absurd.

Mu Gui furrowed his brow and spoke, ”I think you misunderstand; we are not Divine Spirits.”

The Divine Envoys did not rise, nor dared they look directly at Mu Gui and Liu Yuan.

”In reporting to the Divine Spirits, your lord’s fate line has severed; we cannot be mistaken; you are Divine Spirits walking the earth!”

Their attitude was impossibly reverent.

It rendered an awkward atmosphere in the hall.

Second Thunder Tribulation Powerhouses performing ceremonial bows to the Peak of Integration.

The five City Lords suddenly felt they might have not shown enough deference to Mu Gui and Liu Yuan these past days.

”Fate line?”

Mu Gui sensed a clue from these odd folks’ mouths but couldn’t grasp the meaning.

The Divine Envoys did not further explain and cautiously looked toward Kong Luo and the others.

Kong Luo’s group had their faces twitch.

Were they considered outsiders?

Their urge to curse these Hidden King individuals was strong — truly incomprehensible!

Mu Gui glanced at Kong Luo’s group and casually said, ”Speak freely; none of the five City Lords are outsiders.”

Kong Luo and his men still required Lin Wudi’s guidance to escape the Forbidden Sand Sea.

Until then, Mu Gui had no concern they’d betray them.

The Divine Envoys hesitated somewhat but noticed Mu Gui’s resolute stance and opted to speak truthfully to resolve the Divine Spirit’s doubts.

”In the Stone Gate Realm, everyone’s fate is locked within the Tower of Destiny — predestined the moment you enter! Those bound by fate meeting the Ghost Specter upon leaving Stone Gate cannot survive; only those severing their fate line gain a glimmer of hope...”

One envoy explained with a deep voice.

Kong Luo and the others remained puzzled, speculating the Tower of Destiny might be the Giant Light Tower above the Stone Gate Realm.

The notion of severing a fate line was beyond comprehension.

Contrarily, Mu Gui and Liu Yuan immediately recalled entering Stone Gate Realm and rays projecting toward the tower, which Lin Wudi destroyed with them in tow.

The fate line severing mentioned by the envoys was likely that very event.

”You may stand; there’s no need for this; first tell us your purpose in seeking us.”

Realizing the envoys weren’t fabricating, Mu Gui spoke softly.

Kong Luo and the others were suddenly startled.

”Mu Gui’s implication — he seems aware of what the fate line is!”

”Liu Yuan’s expression suggests he knows too!”

”Are the Hidden King’s members truly not mad — did they find something?”

In the Stone Gate Realm, the Hidden King has always advocated certain ideas, but they remained unverified.

Thus, the Ten Kings and subordinate City Lords, regarded the Hidden King Lineage as mad.

Considering Mu Gui and Liu Yuan’s reactions, the Hidden King Lineage’s mysticism proved genuine!

In this scenario, the grudge between the Hidden King and Ten Kings might need reassessment.

The five suddenly realized, despite tens of thousand years in Forbidden Sand Sea, their Stone Gate Realm understanding lacked compared to the Hidden King Lineage.

The Divine Envoys remained seated respectfully, ”Our deity knows the three Divine Spirits have arrived and is very pleased, wishing to invite you to gather in the Divine Realm...”

Mu Gui and Liu Yuan looked to Kong Luo’s group in confusion.

Was there a place called Divine Realm in Stone Gate Realm?

They hadn’t heard Kong Luo mention this before.

Kong Luo felt slightly embarrassed and quickly conveyed the enmity between the Hidden King and the Ten Kings Lineage telepathically.

Also, clarifying the so-called deity according to the Ten Kings’ side referred to the Hidden King.

Liu Yuan seemed surprised, apparently unaware of such secrets within Stone Gate Realm.

Mu Gui slightly furrowed his brow and asked curiously, ”In Stone Gate Realm, besides the Ten Kings, are there other rulers?”
