Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Four stone coffins had been placed in the center of the hall. Including the one Smile sat in, there were five stone coffins in total.
Smile pointed at the stone coffin he was sitting on. "Nieruo."
He pointed at the stone coffin Shi Pantou had brought. "Mietangya and Cai Nü."
He pointed at the stone coffin Le Yu had brought. "Qin Leyin and the Instant Annihilator."
"And Feng Lü." Smile looked at the refined scholar standing nearby and nodded.
Although Le Yu had already learned this from Wuzhiqi's memories, he still couldn't help raising his brows at the sight. Feng Lü had actually been a Beast Tamer born among the tribes, a half-demon specially raised by the tribes and sent to Radiance as a spy. Yet because of his outstanding strength and the National Salvation and Relief Society's arrangements, he had actually become a sword sheath in the Sword Quest for Succession.
If nothing had gone wrong, and Feng Lü had successfully helped his Sword Master ascend the throne, it would have become an epic tale of an enemy spy becoming the supreme leader...
"Malaka! Aren't we still missing one sword sheath!?" Zong Taiji was so furious that his dreadlocks trembled. "Smile! How did you screw this up?!"
"There is one more sword sheath, Thousand Faces. He possesses the Ultimate Divine Weapon: Water of Variants and can transform into countless forms, so he has no fixed appearance. I had no way to find him." Smile spoke calmly. "Besides, Nieruo took quite a bit of time as well. Keeping him alive was no easy task."
As the strongest member of the demon race, Smile naturally had to be responsible for capturing the strongest combatant among the sword sheaths, Nieruo. No one else could replace him—not even Wuzhiqi.
