Chapter 2522: Heavily Injured (6)
Translator : MoonWhisperer, TWIP, JiaLat Editor : Brook
They were in a vast garden that sprawled over the whole area.
It was like an ancient royal dwelling with many pavilions, halls, and garden rockery.
But it also seemed very old and worn, as if it had undergone countless years of erosion and weathering by the elements. The walls, doors, and windows looked like they could collapse at any moment.
What was very strange was that the garden had no vegetationä¸not a single blade of gra.s.s. It was a bare patch of red earth, which made for a ghastly sight.
The Fourth Elder hadn’t said a word since entering the garden. His movements and mannerisms conveyed much more reverence than his appearance from before.
It felt like he was having an audience with the emperor.
Su Luo was filled with doubt. However, she knew it wasn’t a good time to speak out, so she just followed behind the Fourth Elder and carefully observed the situation.
In front of a mottled red attic, the Fourth Elder bowed respectfully as he reported in.
After a moment, a distant voice came from inside: “Enter.”
The one simple word resonated in the depths of Su Luo’s brain, giving her a quiver from a sudden sense of total enlightenment.
After the Fourth Elder received the reply, he carefully opened the door and brought Su Luo in.
As Su Luo followed the Fourth Elder, she realized that the antiquated loft she saw from the outside hid a completely different world inside.
It was obvious that the s.p.a.ce in the loft had been used to open up a separate s.p.a.ce.
The latter was a huge place.
But it was also completely empty—a plane of nothingness. However, the enormous pressure of a powerful individual lingered throughout.
Within the void, an old man sat on a woven mat, but only his back was visible.
His build was very skinny, to the point where you could call it emaciated and withered.
He wore a wide flowy robe that fluttered in the wind.
“Master,” the Fourth Elder said as he kneeled.
This was the Fourth Elder’s master? Su Luo was stunned.
For the Fourth Elder to be so respectful, Su Luo thought that this old man should, in regard to herself, be an existence akin to an ancestor.
But as the adopted daughter of the City Lord, she was an existence above the ma.s.ses here in Purgatory City. So she didn’t need to kneel to anyone.
Upon seeing that Su Luo still standing straight, the Fourth Elder immediately panicked and pulled at Su Luo, speaking in a lowered voice, “Hurry up and kneel!”
Don’t be fooled by the fact that the Fourth Elder’s master was currently as calm as a light breeze. A hundred years ago, his violent temper was provoked, and he caused a great upheaval in the world; his t.i.tle of Mad Lion King was not to be taken lightly.
Su Luo smiled and said, “I don’t need to kneel.”
No matter how much this old man was revered, she had no obligation to kneel to him.
The Fourth Elder panicked: “Quickly, kneel!”
He really wasn’t joking!
What the master hated most were people who didn’t abide by the rules and showed no respect for their elders. It was only because he had been cultivating in seclusion for the past few decades that the kids at Upstream Mountain hadn’t been subject to misery.
At this time, the Mad Lion King had already turned around.
Su Luo’s eyes lit up at her first sight of him.
What kind of face was this?
The Mad Lion King’s body was just skin and bones, and the robe he wore looked almost ready to fly. But his head was very big, and his full beard and mustache only accentuated it.
Upon seeing the Mad Lion King’s head, it was obvious where his name came from.
As the Mad Lion King watched Su Luo stand there—completely at ease and stock still—while the Fourth Elder persistently pulled at her to kneel, he couldn’t help but think it was funny.
“You, come over,” the Mad Lion King beckoned to Su Luo.
“Orh~” Su Luo widened her steps and closed the distance.
The smiling Mad Lion King didn’t seem frightening at all.
