Chapter 843: 639 Chapter Once Again Asleep_1

"Ten thousand years ago, their strength was already greater than mine is now. I wonder, after ten thousand years have passed, what level they have reached," Wang Heng said as he clenched his fists.

"If eldest brother, second brother, and Eighth Younger Brother can all make it, then in this world, we will no longer need to fear anyone," Zhang Kuo also lamented.

Ming Jing said, "Zhang Kuo, aren’t you still the ’Lord of Troy City’? You hold a high position and wield great power. Is everything going to be alright if you suddenly leave?"

Zhang Kuo shook his head and said, "The Lord of Troy City has treated me quite well. However, when I accepted his invitation to become the enforcer, I had already made it clear that I might leave without notice in the future. He gave me his blessing to leave freely."

Su Yu watched their casual conversation, with questions stewing in his mind, until he couldn’t hold back any longer and asked, "Honored predecessors, what exactly is the Demi-God Realm?"

A group of Black Warriors immediately looked towards Su Yu.

The strength of this group of Black Warriors was not something the current Su Yu could measure. Although they were exceedingly respectful to Ada, they didn’t seem to think much of Su Yu as Ada’s present-day Master of Companion. Su Yu knew he had not shown any outstanding performance yet and had not gained the approval of these Black Warriors.

Hearing Su Yu’s question, Zhang Kuo smiled slightly, glanced at Su Yu, and said, "To transcend a Silver Soldier is to be a Demi-god."

Su Yu was taken aback. To transcend a Silver Soldier was to be in the Demi-God Realm? And since he was currently a Third-Level Silver Soldier, he theoretically shouldn’t be too far from the Demi-God Realm. So why was there such a vast difference in strength? Could it be that beyond the Silver Soldier, each level’s strength gap was extremely large?

At this moment, more Black Warriors continued to appear. After arriving, the first thing each of them did was to kneel respectfully before Ada. Many were overcome with tears, while others had white hair and faces that spoke of great age and experience. In ten thousand years, almost every one of them had different fates. Some had built families with numerous descendants, forming large clans, while some wandered the land alone, some held high positions and were influential in their domains, and others were destitute, with the whole world for a home.

The first day ended quickly. Aside from the thousand Black Warriors led by Wang Heng, fewer than eight hundred Black Warriors from all sides had arrived. The strongest three Black Warriors and the other major squadron leaders that all the Black Warriors were looking forward to, did not appear. The faces of every Black Warrior turned ugly with unease, as a sense of anxiety they could not describe bubbled up in their hearts.

In ten thousand years, how many Black Warriors still lived in this world?

On the second day, the "Fire Meteor" was still twinkling in the sky. From afar, another figure finally appeared. However, this figure was not clad in black armor, but wore a plain green tunic. His speed was incredibly fast, and he arrived at the "Hundred Clans Settlement" in just a short while. Seeing a group of Black Warriors coming forward to greet him, the man stopped of his own accord.

Confronted by a group of Demi-god powerhouses, the atmosphere was no joke. Though the man in the green tunic was not weak, he didn’t dare to charge straight through.

"Who are you?" one of the Black Warriors asked, noting that the man in the green tunic did not appear old enough to be one of the Black Warriors from ten thousand years ago. Yet, the black armor carried in the hands of the green tunic man resembled the attire of their Black Warriors.

"Excuse me, is Lord Ada present here?" the man in the green tunic asked respectfully.

"You are looking for Lord Ada? Who exactly are you?" Qi Ming approached from behind. He noted that the man in the green tunic was fairly strong but definitely not on par with the Demi-God Realm. He was curious how this man knew the name of Lord Ada.

With great respect, the man in the green tunic said, "I am a descendant of Shi Kai’s ancestor, Shi Fangzheng from ’Stone City’."

Qi Ming’s expression changed, and he exclaimed, "Shi Kai?" His demeanor shifted instantly, and he hurriedly bowed to the man in the green tunic before leading him inside.

Soon, these Black Warriors received the news. Zhang Kuo stood up and said, "A descendent of Shi Four?" Seeing that Ada’s face showed slight confusion, he explained, "Shi Kai, the fourth brother, was the captain of the fourth squadron."

As he spoke, he went out to greet them. Qi Ming had already brought the green tunic man, Shi Fangzheng, inside.

Shi Fangzheng had a solemn expression as he carried the old and damaged blood-stained black armor with great reverence. He advanced forward, and upon seeing Ada, he knelt, laying the battered black armor before Ada.

Shi Fangzheng’s inheritor rose quickly. "What exactly has happened, and where is Shi Fourth Brother?" Wang Heng asked as he rushed forward.

Kneeling on the ground, Shi Fangzheng respectfully said, "Shi Kai, my ancestor, has long passed away. Before his passing, he left a will, entrusting his armor and a ’Fire Meteor’ to us. He commanded his descendants that if one day they saw the ’Fire Meteor’ reacting, they must bring this set of armor to the gathering place and hand it over to Lord Ada. Additionally, he asked that we convey a message to Lord Ada on his behalf..."

Having said that, Shi Fangzheng slightly raised his head before abruptly lowering it, his face touching the ground as he loudly said, "Shi Kai is incompetent and can no longer protect Lord Ada. Please, Lord Ada, forgive Shi Kai’s incompetence. However, all of Shi Kai’s descendants will heed Lord Ada’s commands, marching through fire and water, and will not refuse any order!"

"What?" People around such as Zhang Kuo, Wang Heng, and Ming Jing all let out cries of shock. Although they had a bad feeling when they saw Shi Fangzheng holding Shi Kai’s blood-stained armor, hearing from Shi Fangzheng himself that Shi Kai had died still sent a violent tremor through their bodies, and all eyes widened in disbelief.

Ada stared blankly at the blood-stained, tattered armor before her. Initially unable to remember who Shi Kai was, memories from the previous era finally surged in her mind once again. In a daze, she saw a square and upright face, thick eyebrows and large eyes, full of boldness and an imposing aura reaching for the skies. Shi Kai, yes, he was the captain of the fourth squadron, Shi Kai.

That bold and ambitious Shi Kai, was he really dead?

Unconsciously, Ada’s eyes blurred with tears, and then, without a sound, she collapsed.

The incident happened so suddenly that everyone was taken aback.

"Lord Ada—"

"Ada?" Su Yu hurriedly caught Ada in his arms and realized that Ada’s eyes were closed, as if she had fallen into sleep. However, she was a normal temperature and seemed to have no abnormalities.

Confused, Zhang Kuo nodded and said, "I understand now. The events of the past two days have been truly shocking for Ada. She has fallen into a deep slumber, but when she wakes up, she will no longer be in the Seventh Growth phase."

Hearing this, Su Yu felt a burst of joy in his heart. Was Ada about to grow once again? Indeed, every time Ada grew, she first fell into a state of deep sleep.

The man in green, Shi Fangzheng, was also stunned. He had not expected Ada to suddenly fall asleep, leaving him momentarily frozen. Wang Heng suddenly grabbed him and barked, "Tell me, how did Shi Kai die?"

Though the man in green, Shi Fangzheng, was not weak, he was ultimately just a Silver Soldier in strength and had no power to resist Wang Heng’s pull. The fierce interrogation filled his face with a trace of fear, and he said, "Ancestor Shi Kai died at the hands of the Third Elder from ’Demon City.’ But that was a long time ago, it was said to be a fair duel..."

"Fair duel my ass! What Third Elder from ’Demon City’? Brothers, follow me, let’s storm into ’Demon City’—," Wang Heng roared, and the thousand Black Warriors who followed him stood up and joined the cry in unison.

At almost the exact moment, an old yet steady voice filled with strength rang out: "Nonsense, how long will you continue this foolishness?"

The voice wasn’t loud, yet it carried far into the ears of every Black Warrior. Wang Heng and the others shuddered, and almost immediately, they shouted excitedly in unison, "Second Brother—"

Qing Huang and Su Yu also felt a jolt in their hearts, and as they looked towards the source of the voice, they thought, Second Brother, was that one of the legendary strongest among the three Black Warriors, the leader of the second squadron Wang An, who had arrived?

Following the stable voice, in the distance, a man with white hair, dressed in a black armor, appeared silently. Step by step, he was slowly approaching them.

This man appeared average and could be easily overlooked if lost in a crowd, but from the moment he made his presence known, he captured the attention of everyone present. His figure, standing there, was imbued with such a stable strength, like a rock or a mountain, giving off an uncanny sense of being unshakeable.

"It’s really Wang An, the Second Brother—" Wang Heng cried out in extreme excitement, rushing forward to greet him. Thousands of years ago, Wang Heng had a great relationship with this Second Brother; they had the same surname, and were as close as real brothers.

Wang Heng, filled with excitement and indignation, called out, "Second Brother, Shi Kai was killed by some Third Elder from ’Demon City.’ Lead us, Second Brother, let’s go to ’Demon City’ right now and avenge Shi Kai."

The man with streaks of black and white hair looked at Wang Heng without saying a word, walking straight to where Su Yu was holding Ada. He observed the sleeping Ada, then slowly bowed, kneeling on one knee.

Wang Heng’s face, which had been filled with excitement, became frozen. He did not expect that his Second Brother would ignore him. The people around also involuntarily shut their mouths, watching the actions of this man with streaks of white hair.

Back in the day, this man with streaks of white hair was legendary among their eight thousand Black Warriors, hailed as one of the three strongest warriors of their generation. After thousands of years, had he remained stagnant, becoming like them, or had he grown to be beyond their wildest imaginations?

The man with streaks of black and white hair, Wang An, kneeled on one knee in a salute before standing up. He looked deeply at Su Yu and then slowly nodded, saying, "Indeed, Lord Ada has a remarkable eye. Although currently in a lower realm and strength, the potential is boundless, and the future achievement may not be inferior to the first generation..."
