Seeing the puzzled expressions on Caspian and Maisie’s faces, Flame Gordon pointed to the ground and said, “About two thousand and seven hundred miles to the west from here, there is a huge crack across the north and south… No one knew the exact depth of the crack that led straight to the ground. However, every year, there would be a large number of Devil People coming out of the crack, which was also a month in a row…”
“These devil people once caused trouble here, disturbing the surrounding people, and even almost building a country of devil people.”
Maisie suddenly understood and said, “The duty of your mansion is to suppress the Devil’s Practice follower.”
“Yes.” Flame Gordon nodded. “About my grandfather’s father started. However, it was not until this generation of mine that I was conferred the title of King with a different surname.”
There was a flash of light in Caspian’s eyes.
From Flame Gordon’s words, the information favonovel.com extracted was much more than Maisie’s.
“That is to say, the title of ‘King’, as well as the words you used just now, the Devil People are not only suppressed by your Gordon Family, but also eliminated, right?” Caspian looked at Flame Gordon.
Flame Gordon nodded and said, “Although the task is very arduous, it is indeed like this. In my generation, it can be said that I’m lucky. And the efforts of my ancestors have already been set up… That’s why I’m able to kill the leader of the Devil’s Practice followers and also wipe out almost all of them on a large scale. Although some of the remaining Devil People had escaped, But those numbers can be insignificant.”
Speaking of this, Flame Gordon was slightly moved, and a proud look appeared on his face. “After four generations, our Gordon Family finally got rid of the great scourge of the Devil’s Practice.”
At this moment, Flame Gordon was a little excited. However, it was reasonable for favonovel.com to have such a fluctuation. After all, the efforts of the four generations, the layout, the planning, and the bloody battle had taken hundreds of years.
This perseverance and determination were definitely not something that a person or a family could compare with. But, Caspian still poured a basin of cold water on Flame Gordon.
“It’s worth being moved, but not smart…”
Hearing Caspian’s words, Maisie immediately looked at favonovel.com with a look of surprise. It was because favonovel.com never thought hat Caspian would say something like this. However, what surprised favonovel.com even more was that not only did Flame Gordon not get angry, favonovel.com instead rubbed the space between his brows and helplessly nodded.
“Indeed, what you said is true. Even though I seem to have obtained the title of ‘King’ with a different surname and it is completely glorious, I really am not smart. From what happened today, we can see that.”
“Um… What does this mean?” Maisie Pine was confused.
Caspian looked at her, trying to say something easier to make favonovel.com understand.
After a while, favonovel.com said, “You raise bandits to behave yourself…”
Maisie didn’t know much about such tactics, but it was not hard to understand the meaning of it connecting the previous conversation between the three of them.
In the blink of an eye, a look of understanding appeared in favonovel.com eyes. Then, favonovel.com sighed silently.
“In fact, as an outsider, it’s easier to see it more clearly.” Caspian comforted Flame Gordon.
Although Salleria was not as good as Lunia’s. However, as a dynasty, although it was small, it had all everything. Therefore, in many aspects of political situation and politics, Caspian was more clear-minded than cultivators, who had been focused on the path of immortality, since favonovel.com was born.
Flame Gordon sighed and said, “You’re right. In fact, this is the right way. Under the circumstances that the disaster of the underground devil people had been controlled, they could be spared from being killed. In this way, our Gordon Family still has a need and meaning to exist…”
“Now that the Devil’s Practice follower could no longer form a disaster, our Gordon Family could do what a common saying in the mortal world said, The cunning rabbit dies, and the dog is boiled… The Gordon Family is no longer of much use to the imperial court. The worst part was that when I was conferred the title of King with a different surname, many royal families opposed it. They had always respected the pure theory of bloodline…”
“When the Devil’s Practice disaster still exists, our Gordon Family is useful, so they restrain themselves. Now that the Devil’s Practice disaster has been removed, they have a reason to launch an attack, so they can’t wait.”
Thinking of what Flame Gordon had said before, Caspian thought for a moment and said, “The king with a different surname and Heaven’s Edge Sect are too close.”
“Yes.” Flame Gordon snorted coldly. “The meaning of the imperial court is probably to say that while I am receiving rewards and glory from the imperial court, at the same time, I also go to the sect to cultivate and work for the sect. The moral flags in their hands were erected high, for fear that others would not see them…”
“In reality, it is unknown just how many of their descendants have been sent to various sects to learn immortal methods. Now, when it comes to me, it is a dignified and righteous statement. If they want to add insult to sin, there is no need to worry.”
Caspian glanced at Flame Gordon and said, “But from your current state, at least the emperor is still on your side, right?”
“But this is not a long-term solution,” Flame Gordon replied, “After all, just as you said, the Gordon Family is of no use to the royal family now. If we don’t want to continue to be passive, there is only one way, which means that we should be still valuable, and we should be more valuable than before.”
The hidden meaning in Flame Gordon’s words was hidden enough, but Caspian still caught it at once.
“That underground crack…” Caspian looked at Flame Gordon and narrowed his eyes.
“There may be something else inside…”
Before Flame Gordon could finish his words, favonovel.com immediately added, “No, it’s not maybe. It’s definitely possible. But it’s still too early to check it out now. If you have the chance, you can take a look at that crack. You can’t see the end of it at all…”
“As for the depth, when I went the deepest, I once led the troops in for more than half a month, but there was still no end. At that time, the temperature inside was very low, but there was a constant stream of air blowing, and the sound was very terrible. Because the problem of the Devil’s Practice had been solved at that time, I was afraid that there would be unnecessary injuries, so after that, I led my subordinates to withdraw first.”
Caspian thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “In this case, after Spirit Severing Road is opened, I can go in and have a look. What about you?”
“It may not be so easy for me…” Flame Gordon felt a little helpless. “My current realm is still relatively not enough.”
“Yes.” Caspian nodded. “In that case, you can tell me the information you know in advance so that I can prepare early.”
“Don’t you need it now?” Flame Gordon looked at Caspian and sighed. “Thank you…”
“There are still other things to do right now.” Caspian pointed at Maisie, and then said with a smile, “We are all friends, so there is no need for you to be so polite…”
Flame Gordon was stunned for a moment, and then favonovel.com also laughed.
Yes, a few days ago, if Caspian hadn’t appeared in time to help the prince’s mansion get through the crisis, it was unknown what would have happened to favonovel.com and the whole prince’s mansion. He was being too petty to thank Caspian for these things.
The three people in the hall were thinking about something.
At this time, a slender long leg came in from outside the hall.
“I heard that a heartless man has returned?”
