Chapter 5528 Unexpected
"Don't worry, this is not a place where those monsters can easily set foot."
The Fire King shook his head, stepped forward, and raised his hand to signal Zhang Yifeng and others not to act rashly.
When the Fire King walked to the huge bonfire, two arrows were suddenly shot out from the dark and hit the Fire King in front of him.
Obviously this was a warning attack, meaning that if the Fire King took another step forward rashly, they would launch an attack.
"who are you?"
A somewhat unclear voice came from the darkness, but it was full of questioning.
"There should be many things about my identity in your records, but the most convincing proof is nothing more than this."
The Fire King responded in a deep voice, and at the same time, a ball of fire in his hand lit up and threw it into the bonfire.
The flame was thrown into the bonfire, and the originally dim flame suddenly became much brighter, illuminating all directions.
Seeing such a strange change, the pupils of the person hiding in the dark shrank, and an ancient legend flashed through his mind.
"You are able to awaken the power of the divine flame. Could it be that you are... the Lord of Fire?"
As the voice fell, two young men with extremely pale skin walked out of the darkness, their red eyes fixed on the Fire King.
They looked up and down at this mysterious man wrapped in a curtain of flames, and felt more and more that he was similar to the legendary God of Fire.
"The God of Fire? Maybe that's my name in your records."
The Fire King looked at the two young men with unusually fair skin, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
It seemed that the appearance of these two people was very different from what he remembered.
"Greetings, Lord Kagami!"
After receiving a positive answer, the two young men hurriedly dropped their longbows and knelt down to salute the Fire King with solemn expressions.
Zhang Yifeng felt weird watching from the side, but he thought that this might be the backup plan left by the Fire King in the dark space.
After all, Zhang Yifeng heard something was wrong from Tai Qingyu's previous conversation.
The relationship between the Dark Emperor, the first Snow King and the Fire King does not seem to be that simple.
"No need to be so polite. Who is the head of your clan now?"
The Fire King spoke in a deep voice, motioning for the two to stand up and answer.
The two young men looked at each other, and finally stood up carefully.
"Reporting to Lord Kagami, our clan has not yet decided on a leader..."
The two of them lowered their heads and replied in a low voice.
"Ok?"
"Why is that? Didn't I set down the clan rules in the beginning, asking you to choose a leader every hundred years to take over?"
"Is your tribe experiencing internal strife?"
The Fire King's face darkened and he said in a cold voice.
"No, Lord Kagami, you misunderstood. That is not the case."
"What's more, with the current manpower of our tribe, we can't support the internal struggle at all."
“The reason why we have not been able to elect a leader is because there are too few young people in the tribe.”
A young man sighed and revealed the root cause.
"what?!"
The Fire King frowned and looked at the two young men in disbelief.
"How is this possible? When I left, I clearly left all the magic weapons that could provide food and water here."
"As long as you have these two magic weapons, you won't have any problems with reproduction."
The Fire King said this with a stern face, and the curtain of flames around him crackled.
"Master Vulcan, you are right. These are indeed recorded in the legends."
"But within a thousand years after you left, someone in the tribe could not withstand the temptation of darkness and betrayed the tribe."
"They were unable to do anything with the divine fire you set up, so they secretly took the two magic weapons and escaped, and joined the Dark Emperor's army."
The two young men immediately narrated the past of their tribe.
When the Fire King heard that it was actually a turmoil within their own tribe that led to the current situation, a look of confusion flashed across his eyes.
According to his plan, by the time they returned to the dark space, the Fire Clan should have grown stronger.
Even if he cannot confront the Dark Emperor head-on, he is still capable of developing a powerful force, which is definitely not the case now.
"hateful……"
The Fire King growled.
Zhang Yifeng stepped forward and said calmly, "Senior Fire King, sometimes we should not underestimate the greed in people's hearts."
"Even if you have satisfied all their needs in the past, no one could have expected their ever-expanding greed."
Zhang Yifeng has already seen the two young men in front of him and the tribes they belong to.
This is the backup plan that the Fire King left for himself to return to the dark space.
Just from what they just said, it can be seen that this tribe has completely declined and even reproduction has become a problem.
It was because of the protection of the flames left by the Fire King that it was not completely destroyed by the Dark Emperor's subordinates.
After observation just now, Zhang Yifeng also found that these bonfires and even the torches at the entrance of the cave still had the breath of the Fire King.
From this it can be seen that this place does have a deep connection with the Fire King.
"Forget it. Now that this has happened, it's useless to worry about it anymore."
"Take me in first to see what the Fire Tribe looks like now."
The Fire King waved his hand and was about to lead Zhang Yifeng and others to fly towards the cave.
The two young men's eyes narrowed upon seeing this, and they hurriedly followed and blocked the entrance of the cave.
"Master Vulcan, who are these people?"
They have absolute trust in the Fire King. After all, he is the legendary God of Fire who saved their ancestors.
But Zhang Yifeng and his companions were no different from strangers to them.
Even if they came with Lord Kagami, they could not let their guard down.
"These are my friends, and they are here to help you."
"Do you still think I will harm you?"
The Fire King frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Of course not."
"It's just that the cave where the tribe lives is a bit dirty at the moment. Lord Fire God, please..."
The two young men were speechless at the moment, but they were still unwilling to let the Fire King enter the cave.
It's because they knew very well how dirty and messy the situation in the cave was.
"How could I dislike you?"
The Fire King just left behind some unclear words and walked straight into the cave.
Seeing this, Zhang Yifeng and others behind him also followed, including Fang Han who had just joined their team not long ago.
The two young men's expressions changed several times when they saw this, and finally they could only grit their teeth and hurry to catch up.
As soon as I entered the cave, a strong stench swept over me.
Zhang Yifeng frowned as he looked into the bright cave, which was filled with a large amount of beast remains and even various filthy things.
It’s no wonder that the two young men were unwilling to let them enter the cave.
After all, the Fire King was the savior in their legend, so they naturally didn't want him to see this scene.
