Infernal Hero

Chapter 623 The Horizon Is Fragrant

There are two kinds of people in this world, the strong and the weak. Strong believers could face death and humiliation calmly, but they would never be subdued by humiliation. Even if they retreated temporarily, it was for a longer-term goal. As for the weak, they believed in power and were always filled with reverence for the rules. They would always follow the current blankly. Even if they stole a high position for the time being, they would not be able to get rid of the short-sighted nature and the fear and cowardice in their hearts.

Ye He pointed at a corpse in the ruins and questioned Gu Tianyou, "What kind of person are you? Is this how you handle things?"

Gu Tianyou said, "Many people escaped from the fire. Only a small number of people were burned to death. If you observe carefully enough, you will discover that every person who dies has a path to death." Pausing for a moment, he continued, "I'm not saying this to justify myself. I just want to tell you that this is the way the Heavenly Dao chooses the fate of all species. In your eyes, I'm a murderous devil king and a cold-blooded and merciless executioner. But under the Heavenly Dao, I'm just a Daoist on behalf of the Heavens."

"You are sophistry!" Ye He said disapprovingly, "If it weren't for the fire set by your Fate Firefox, these dead wouldn't have had to face this cruel choice at all, and you're just a bandit on behalf of the heavens."

Gu Tianyou didn't mind. He smiled gently and said, "If one of them were willing to stand up for Safina at that time, "There will be no fire. You might say that not everyone saw Safina's despair, but you have to admit that there were many people you saw, but none of them were willing to stand up. Obviously, the justice and morality you yearned for were not recognized by more people."

"I've never heard that person speak so righteously about killing innocent people." Ye He sighed and said, "And the most tragic thing is that he is speechless."

"This is a cruel world. The vast majority of people believe in the pursuit of power." Gu Tianyou continued, "Under this belief, there is no one who is innocent, and no one who is not a match for each other. I do not need such a partner. We pursue strength, but we must not superstition it. Compared to free and independent will and partners who live and die together, strength is sometimes meaningless."

"Don't be so grand." Ye He said, "Your target is the Earth Fire Dragon Crystal. Obviously, this thing can make you stronger. If you don't pursue strength, why would you risk finding the Blazing Fire Gate for this thing?"

Gu Tianyou laughed loudly and said, "You've been with me since the Spirit Mountain Buddha Realm. Have you ever seen me, Gu Tianyou, abandon any of my companions?"

'"The pursuit of power in this dangerous world entails taking risks. The path of the strong is destined to be uneven. From the moment I set foot on this path, I have already gained the consciousness of death. I absolutely believe that all my companions are the same. God's Blessed City does not need lofty ideals and great goals. It only needs to live a free and fearless and noble life."

"No matter how reasonable you are, it will not change the fact that if you only face this world in such a brave and ruthless way, you will one day meet someone stronger than you and take away everything from you in the same way," Ye He said.

Gu Tianyou chuckled and said, "So this is a game of bravery. We gamble on fate, trust each other, and walk this path of no return. If we are destined to end up in someone else's place, then we will embrace death."

"On this path, Blaze Island is just the beginning. In the future, you will see more slaughter. They have appeared here and embarked on this path just like us. They are our opponents. I will never show mercy to them, because doing so is irresponsible to my companions who live and die together with me."

"No matter how hard you try, it will only change the fate of a small group of people like you. To this world, what you have done is meaningless." Ye He continued, "It's a pity that I still can't convince you this time, but you can't make me agree with your point of view. I'll wait and see what your fate will be like in the future."

Gu Tianyou changed the topic and said, "Perhaps we will know tomorrow when the Earth Fire Dragon Crystal appears. After all, Immortal Monarch Fire Virtue is a direct disciple of the Fire Saint. Remember when you told me that in the power system of the Divine Kingdom, there are Eighth Grade Immortals and Ninth Grade Saints. Could it be that Immortal Monarch Fire Virtue has not cultivated to the Ninth Grade Saint Realm?"

Ye He sneered, "although you pursue strength, However, he didn't know anything about strength. The word 'Fire Virtue Immortal Monarch' represented the title given to him by the secular royal court. It had nothing to do with his strength at all. Fire Virtue Immortal Monarch Liu Yan was already the most talented Xiantian Fire Virtue practitioner in the Divine Kingdom many years ago. Even though he had been stuck at the Sub-Sage level for many years, he was someone that many Great Saints wouldn't dare willing to provoke easily. "

"That's why." Gu Tianyou nodded his head in satisfaction and said, "Brother Dao is indeed worthy of being the light guiding the way. Looking at the mirror in its shape, you have indeed not wasted any time in the Jade Void Heavenly Secrets Pavilion for many years, but I wonder what powerful magic treasure Liu Yan has on him?"

Ye He said, "Xuanyuan Sect is as famous as Yuxu Sect. Yuxu is in charge of the Golden Lake of the Ancient Earth. Xuanyuan holds the secular Divine Kingdom in his hands. Although they belong to the same camp, they are actually at odds with each other. There are often conflicts between them. Even public duels between disciples are common. Therefore, how can I, a member of the Jade Void Sect, know about the treasures of Xuanyuan Sect?"
Gu Tianyou said, "Know yourself and know your enemy. Tell me about the people you know about this."

"You just let Big Lang Liu go, but now you're asking me about Liu Yan. Aren't you worried that our group won't live until tomorrow?" Ye He's mood wasn't high, and his tone was stiff, "Or do you really think that Ancestor Blazing Fire has become famous for 800 years, and that he has completely lost his reputation?"

Gu Tianyou said, "It's because he's been famous for 800 years, After living for 900 years, I am even more certain that this old fellow cherishes his life more than anyone else. I dare to publicly burn down his Joyful Union Pavilion and then almost trample on Liu Dalang's toad. When this old fellow hears the news, he will only be even more cautious. He already knows that I am here for the Earth Fire Dragon Crystal. The best choice for him is to wait for Liu Yan to arrive in time.

Safena suddenly interrupted, "Boss, you're so smart, This Blazing Fire Ancestor had always been the most afraid of death, A few years ago, a big Aryan man came up from Blaze Island, "There was a dispute over the alcohol. In the end, that person's sword slashed down the Flying Flame Tower in the north of the market. Many people from the Blaze Sect surrounded that person and were chopped into pieces by that person. In the end, Patriarch Blaze personally arrived. We all thought that there would be a heaven-destroying battle. We were worried that in the end, this old fellow would actually reconcile with that person!"

Gu Tianyou chuckled, "This old bastard really doesn't have much of a beating." "So many of our subordinates have died and finally reconciled with each other. We don't need to care about him just for this matter," he added.

The flames dissipated and the sky darkened.

There were three suns in the Sinian Origin Realm, but there was no moon. Only in high latitudes would there be night, and the further north, the longer the night would be, until it finally entered the Evernight Dark Region. In the depths of the Terminator Forest. It had been almost a month since he left Great Sun Dragon City. This was only the sixth night that Gu Tianyou had experienced.

Actually, life on the ship wasn't easy. Gu Tianyou spent most of his time hiding his primordial spirit in the Primordial Chaos Realm to participate in the evolution of the Heavenly Dao and comprehend the various Dao phases and Spiritual Rhymes in the nature of heaven and earth. This kind of boring life had been going on for a long time, and it was really a bit boring. After finishing the matter with Safina , Gu Tianyou decided to find something to be happy about in the face of the long night.

This island was located between the northern subcontinent of the Divine Kingdom and Terminator Forest. It was equivalent to a resource transfer station. There were as many adventurers as a feather. With these adventurers, there would naturally be no shortage of industries that served adventurers. Long streets are full of wine shops. Gu Tianyou said. It seems that Liu Nanbing, that old fox, doesn't intend to send anymore people here today. We can't wait here all the time. It's rare to encounter a long night. If we don't have a good drink, we'll be sorry for this rare night.

Gu Tianyou took the lead, Ye He didn't have time to follow him, and the others were a step behind. Along the way, wherever they passed, the crowd looked sideways, pointing and discussing, and even the juniors of the Blazing Fire Sect fell behind and quietly monitored. After walking for a while, they found that there were many shops, but everyone could not avoid them. Seeing the few people approaching, they immediately said that they were closed and would rather close their doors than do their business.

After walking two streets, they finally arrived at an elegant restaurant. When they saw a few people walking forward, no one came out to say that they were closing. Gu Tianyou had been shut out all night. He didn't care about it at all. He walked up and saw that there was a front at the door. It was written on the left and right of the Hundred Herbs Pavilion. It said, "There are flowers that are not thanked at four o'clock, and there are evergreen herbs at eight o'clock." The handwriting was ancient, elegant, and clear.

Many disciples of the Blazing Fire Sect followed and stood across the street. After whispering, a few people hurriedly ran away. It seemed that they were most likely going to report to someone. Gu Tianyou and the others only did not see it, as if no one else had seen it. They walked straight into this restaurant that looked like there were more pharmacies than restaurants. The lower steps of the corridor were filled with Jasmine, Suxin, Musk Vine, Hibiscus, Cinnamon, Red Banana, and other items. The hall was also hung with Garan Wood, True Wax Dragon Saliva, and other fragrant pearls. However, Juexin's intent was intimidating, and the room was fragrant.

Gu Tianyou was knowledgeable, and he couldn't help but praise that this shop was really generous!

The shop assistant's green hat was neat and neat. He quickly came forward and chanted a fatty before leading everyone into the shop. Then he asked, "Are you here to drink or buy medicine? Or do you have any hard currency to sell?" He glanced behind Gu Tianyou and the others and said, "We are an old shop run by the Chen Clan of Xingyang. No matter what you are here for, you will be our guests once you enter this door. We guarantee that you will be fair and honest, and that no one will chase after you to cause trouble."

Xingyang Chen Clan? Isn't this the old home of the Blessed Army? Why did you open the branch on Blaze Island? Gu Tianyou understood the reasoning behind this. The Chen Clan's ancient medical skills were unparalleled in the world, so they naturally needed large quantities of herbal ingredients. Terminator Forest is undoubtedly an important source of raw materials. Their main purpose in setting up the restaurant here was not to sell wine, but to deal with the demon cores that the adventurers had brought back from the Forest of Terminator.

Ye He smiled and said, "After walking two blocks, this one opened the door to welcome guests. However, it turned to my family of the Divine Blessed Army. No wonder the disciples of the Blazing Fire Sect didn't dare to follow."

Gu Tianyou said to the waiter, "We are here to drink. What good wine do you have?"

The clerk said, "The best wine here is Chen Clan's Hundred Herbs Yellow. It's eaten. There's a Hundred Herbs Banquet passed down from Chen Clan in Xingyang. It's a bit expensive with meat and vegetables. However, the Snake Soup Bear Paste is available everywhere. Not only is it tasty, but it can also clear the wind, clear the eyes, and calm the mind."

Gu Tianyou sounded interesting. This Chen Clan of Xingyang was indeed not ordinary. A mere clerk from a branch shop on Blaze Island had such a bearing. He truly deserved to be called a caste noble with a family background and heritage. He replied casually, "I'm new here and I don't know what's good for me. You can choose the best one and arrange a table for us."

The waiter answered. He turned around and shouted loudly to the kitchen, "Grass essence is mushroom, wood Huawei ears, mountain treasures, old ginseng from the seabed, you never tire of eating, you never tire of praising me. VIP guests come to the door and order a table of first-grade dishes!"

Gu Tianyou sounded interesting and couldn't help but sigh, "This isn't just selling wine and vegetables. It's simply selling culture. If a shop like this were to open in the surface world, it would definitely make a lot of money."

Ye He said, "The Chen Clan's old brands are all over the world, not because of that little copper stench."

Outside the shop, more and more people gathered at the Blazing Fire Sect, but they didn't dare to take a single step over the lightning pool. The other guests in the shop were obviously affected. Everyone was worried that they would be affected by the fish in the pond, so they got up and checked out one after another. Gu Tianyou was the only guest left in the spacious lobby.

After waiting for a long time, the first dish was finally served. It was a soup dish called Dragon-Phoenix Chengxiang. It was made from a hundred-step Red Chain Snake and a caragan mixed with some medicinal herbs. Immediately after, other dishes appeared on the stage, all of them exquisite delicacies with good color, fragrance, and taste. Each dish has an elegant name and a unique medicinal value.

Ye He sighed in admiration, "This is the world famous Chen Clan's medicinal cuisine. As expected, its reputation is well-deserved."

The wine was the last to arrive. The yellow wine in the jar was slapped off the mud seal, and the fragrance of the wine immediately overflowed. The smell contained the fragrance of medicine, and it made one feel refreshed when they inhaled it into their noses.

Although Safina and the others were foreign visitors, they had lived in the Divine Kingdom for many years and were familiar with the etiquette and rules of the Divine Kingdom. Gu Tianyou did not move his chopsticks, and they did not move at all. Even though the wine and vegetables on this table gave off such an alluring smell, they still resisted the temptation.

Gu Tianyou picked up the cup, and Little Fox Maiden immediately poured a full cup and added wine to the others. Apart from Ye He who was calm, the others, including Gina, who could not speak, all stood up and politely spoke. A rank nine Demon King was already comparable to a vampire prince in the Witch Nation. In this world where strength was respected, people were already used to being filled with reverence for power.

Gu Tianyou raised his glass and said, "Tonight, we will be one family. This kind of courtesy is only for once. This daddy doesn't read much and is only a rough guy. He is the least used to the red tape. Everyone wandering in Jianghu is just having fun. If we continue to talk about the rules, wouldn't it be troublesome?" From this cup onwards, drink freely, eat and drink freely. There is no difference between rank eight and rank nine on the table, only like-minded families. If you want to be more restrained, you don't treat me as a family. "

The atmosphere on the table gradually became lively, everyone drank happily, and the conversation gradually grew louder and louder. Boyette talked about Big Lang Liu and touched upon the experience of being exploited and humiliated by this person in the past. Seeing his timid appearance under the boss's feet today, compared to his previous prestige, it was really hard to imagine the changes in this day.

At this moment, a big man with blonde hair and blue eyes suddenly appeared outside the shop. He had blonde hair and blue eyes, a huge nose and mouth, and his entire body was filled with muscles that exploded. He was like a lion, and his leather armor was simple and crude. He carried a two-handed greatsword on his back and strode in. He came straight to the table of Gu Tianyou and the others. He opened his mouth and asked, "Did you burn Gu Tianyou from the Joyous Pavilion?"

Gu Tianyou sat motionlessly and used his gaze to indicate that no one else should act rashly. "I am Gu Tianyou, who are you?"

"Trump is also!" The burly man said proudly, "Stand up and follow me outside to have a battle between warriors. How about it?"

Gu Tianyou smiled and asked, "Why should I fight with you?"

Trump said, "Someone asked me to cut off your head. If you don't fight with me, I won't be able to repay my debt to Liu Nanbing. I've been on this island for seven years. This is the first time he asked me to do something, so you have to fight with me."

When Gu Tianyou saw that this person spoke frankly and behaved with extraordinary heroism, he felt a bit of admiration in his heart. He smiled and said, "Even the Divine Kingdom Emperor knows that there are no lacking hungry soldiers. My stomach is empty now, so I'm not in the mood to fight with you."

Trump was slightly stunned for a moment. He stared at the table full of delicacies, smelled the alluring wine, swallowed his saliva, and said, "No, I haven't eaten two meals either. We're empty against empty. It's fair. Get your weapons and come out with me. You're not allowed to fight in this room. Let's settle this outside."

Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "Rather than empty stomach to empty stomach, why not fill man to fill man? Why don't you sit down and eat and drink enough with me? Let's go out and compete as much as we want, okay?"

Trump was stunned for a moment before suddenly pulling a chair and sitting beside Boyt, he said, "Eat as you please. Are you afraid you'll run away?"

With this lion-like outsider, everyone's chatter dimmed down a lot. Focusing on the food, he unknowingly drank a few jars of wine and most of the dishes were bottomed out. The burly man was like no one else, and he drank too much and ate too much without restraint, continuously clicking his tongue in praise.

Gu Tianyou repaid the debt with a full meal. Everyone stood up together. Trump stood up, looked at the broken cup on the table, and asked, "You don't want any of this, do you?" Then, he took off a sweat towel from his body and spread it on the table. He packed all the remaining straw mushrooms, dried mushrooms, fungi, dried meat, and celestial shells in the bowl, ignoring the filth of the soup and directly stuffed them into his bosom.

"Can we go out and fight now?" Gu Tianyou looked at him with interest.
