The Story of the Swordsman

Red Throne

"Water temperature rises again?" Hua Litong muttered to himself as he stared at the boiling river in front of him.

After walking along the river for a day, he saw the temperature of the river continuously increasing.

"Does this have anything to do with an object like the sun?!" Hua Litong's eyes sparkled as he suspected the temperature rise was due to an object like the sun from his mother's words.

"Maybe this place is the core of the true mythical realm?" He suddenly became happy.

Hua Litong sped up his pace in the hope that he could soon reach the middle area. Suddenly, he halted his steps, whipped out his sword, and said coldly towards his front. "Who?"

"Along?" A female silhouette appeared behind the wall.

"Well?" Hua Litong was surprised. He had not expected to meet Yang Mengli here.

Since Yang Chen and Hua Wanru loved each other, the relationship between Yang Mengli and Hua Litong was definitely very close. They can be considered good friends.

"How are you?" Hua Litong kept his sword and approached Yang Mengli with a smile.

"I'm doing fine. I'm trying to find my sister right now." Answer The Mengli. He paused for a moment and asked further, "How long have you been here?"

"I arrived here yesterday. How's yours?" Answer Hua Litong.

"I've been tracking Luo Kun for a few days but I'm losing him now." Yang Mengli then lowered her head apologizing. "Sorry, Litong. I can't bring Wanru back from Luo Kun." He saw Hua Wanru together with Luo Kun, but he himself did not have enough strength to save him.

"Is he okay?" Hua Litong hurriedly asked. His face was full of worry.

Yang Mengli nodded his head. "He should be fine. I think he has already separated from Luo Kun after coming here. Along the way, I have killed three people from the Luo clan and they don't seem to know of Luo Kun and Wanru's whereabouts."

Hua Litong sighed in relief. He said, "That's good ... Did you find the black jade of those people?"

Yang Mengli took out a black transmission jade and said, "This one?"

Hua Litong explained, "Yes. People from the Luo clan could use this jade to contact each other. Before coming here, Yun Lintian had modified our transmission jade by using this black jade. Now, we can call each other."

"Doctor Yun? He can do this too?" Yang Mengli was surprised ... What kind of talent is that? He doesn't know what else to say.

Hua Litong nodded firmly, "Yes. He's a real genius ... I'll call him now. Maybe he's met someone else."

He then took out a transmission jade and tried to contact Yun Lintian. However, there was no reply after waiting for a full minute.

Hua Litong frowned. "Did he get in trouble?" He then switched to contacting Yun Chan, but the results were still the same. No response to him.

The wrinkle on Hua Litong's face deepened. He tried again. This time he contacted Yun Li. "Sister Yun Li, are you there?"

"Sister Hua? We met Luo Kun and his men. Right now, we are together with Young Master Yang Chen. Yun Chan and Yun Ting were seriously injured." Yun Li's voice sounded.

Both Hua Litong and Yang Mengli glanced at each other with serious expressions. Hua Litong asked, "Where is Luo Kun? Did you kill him?"

"No. Young Master Yang Chen said he ran away." Yun Li replied.

"alright. Find a place to recover first." Hua Litong said with a heavy tone.

"Let's go." Hua Litong did not wait for Yang Mengli to reply, he quickly walked forward while Yang Mengli followed behind.

....

"It's a beautiful place." Yun Lintian exclaimed while looking around.

When he first stepped into this place through the middle door, a faint heat wave immediately struck his face, followed by a bright light that could possibly blind him. However, when the mysterious rat raised its hand slightly, everything disappeared instantly, and an extremely beautiful hall appeared in front of Yun Lintian.

The first thing that attracted Yun Lintian the most attention was the deep red throne in the middle of the hall. He was somehow able to sense a powerful aura that kept emitting from him.

As Yun Lintian raised his head to look at the ceiling, he was shocked when he saw a red-colored ball floating above him, issuing heat waves from time to time.

"Is this what we call the Sun?" Yun Lintian muttered with a frown. Now, he was very confident this place was the center of the mythical realm.

The rat tilted his head slightly before shrugging innocently.

He asked further, "Then did you know the Blazing Sun King?" He asked this because he thought this rat must have some connection with the Blazing Sun King. Otherwise, how could he open the door so easily?

The rat pondered for a moment before shaking his head and then raising his tiny hand towards Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian was silent. He helplessly took out a few servings of meat and gave them to the rats. "Here we go. Do you want me to cook it for you?"

The mouse nodded.

Yun Lintian found a suitable place to set up a simple fireplace and started cooking. During this time, he kept a close eye on the Sun from time to time to find clues about it. From the diary of the Blazing Sun King, the Sun was abandoned by the 'man' and guarded by the Blazing Sun King, waiting for 'he' to arrive at this place.

A while later, Yun Lintian handed the meat to the rat and decided to take a look at the place. He started with a deep red throne first.

Booms!

As he drew closer to the red throne, a powerful gust of heat burst forth and threw Yun Lintian a few meters away.

"What the fuck!?" Yun Lintian exclaimed furiously. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and did not sustain any injuries while landing on the ground.

"What's going on?" Yun Lintian turned around to ask the rat.

The rat was busy eating meat voraciously.

He turned towards the red throne once again. This time he carefully approached her.

Booms!

Yun Lintian was thrown once again, but it allowed him to obtain a piece of information. He could not be within 20 meters of the red throne. If not, he will immediately bounce.

"What am I supposed to do?" Yun Lintian touched his chin and thought hard. Now he was sure there was something on the dark red throne. It could be the secret of this place or the treasure. Therefore, he had to find a way to approach her.

He glanced at the mouse and sighed. "Tell me. What do you need?" Of course, the quickest way was to let the rat solve the problem for him.

The rat grinned and raised his hand towards Yun Lintian, asking for more food.

"Hey, I still need to eat, okay? I don't have much food left ... What about this knife?" Yun Lintian took out the knife he had obtained from the treasure room earlier.

The rat rolled his eyes as if to say, "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Yun Lintian sighed in disappointment. It seems like the rat is not stupid. He looked at the food in his space ring and finally took out a chicken. "This. Do you want me to cook it for you?"

The rat sniffed the chicken a little and felt it did not smell like meat, but in the end still nodded.

Yun Lintian sighed helplessly and set up another fireplace.

Twenty minutes later, Yun Lintian finished cooking the roasted chicken and handed it to the rats. He quickly bit the roasted chicken.

Yun Lintian patiently watched the rat eat happily without saying anything. The roast chicken disappeared within two minutes, leaving a bone on the floor.

"It's time to do your job now." Yun Lintian said to the big mouse.

The rat slowly walked towards the deep red throne and gently knocked on the invisible barrier 20 meters in front of the throne. Instantly, Yun Lintian felt that something had disappeared from that place. The invisible barrier had disappeared completely.

Yun Lintian followed the mouse behind. When they arrived in front of the throne, Yun Lintian could see beautiful fire patterns carved carefully on it.

While Yun Lintian was focused on the red throne, the mouse's eyes became sad as he stared at the throne. His expression was completely different from before.

Of course, Yun Lintian did not notice it. His attention was only focused on the red throne and searching for his secret. Then, he was unable to find anything and turned to the rat. "Is there a secret on this throne?"

The rat did not react to Yun Lintian's question, but he extended his hand to gently touch the deep red throne. After which, the pattern on the red throne suddenly shone in a red light, causing Yun Lintian to involuntarily take a step back.

"Finally, you're coming." Suddenly, a voice echoed throughout the hall.
