Chapter 1563 A scene in the living room
"This group of dull and stubborn people do not understand what art and comfort are. Every time I come here, I can smell a disgusting smell of dust and dirt in this giant castle."
In the spacious and bright living room of the Stone Giant's castle, a skinny man with cloudy eyes full of disgust spat on the carpet and said impatiently, "You made me wait for so long. I think the good days of the Stone Giant are over."
After saying that, the skinny man shook off his colorful flame-colored robe, glanced at the two stone giant followers waiting at the door, and said sternly: "Go and urge your useless master, I don't have time to waste here!"
Hearing this, the two young stone giant followers did not respond. Instead, they nodded silently with an expressionless face and were about to turn around and leave.
"You bastard, you dare to put on such a stinky face in front of me?"
The skinny man had a gloomy look on his face and slammed the armrest of the chair heavily.
With flames swirling in his palm, the entire armrest was turned into a ball of ash that fell to the ground.
As soon as the skinny man said this, a team of black-armored guards who were guarding him immediately walked forward and stopped the two stone giant followers.
The black-armored captain who was leading the group grinned fiercely, jumped up from the ground, raised his fist and hit one of the stone giant followers in the abdomen.
With a dull "bang", the stone giant follower was caught off guard and flew backwards. His huge body slammed into the wall of the living room like a rag bag, and a mouthful of blood spurted out immediately.
At the same time, the other black-armored guards also rushed forward and soon beat the other stone giant follower into a bloody mess, causing a strong smell of blood to fill the room.
Judging from the playful and arrogant looks of the group of black-armored warriors, it is obvious that they are already accustomed to this kind of scene and have an unbridled look on their faces.
Despite being severely injured, the two young stone giant followers remained neither humble nor arrogant. They just glared at the skinny man and kept breathing heavily.
The two were only at the early fourth level, while the group of black-armored warriors were all genuine sixth-level warriors. With just a flick of their fingers, they could easily crush the two to death on the spot. The reason they didn't take action was that they just treated the two as sandbags for the time being.
Therefore, even though the two of them were much larger than the group of black-armored warriors, due to the huge gap in strength, they had no room to fight back.
"It seems that you still haven't learned your lesson, so don't blame me for being ruthless and cruel."
Looking at the eyes of the two stone giant followers, murderous intent flashed in the skinny man's eyes, and he waved to the black-armored captain who was in the lead.
"Hey, yes, sir."
The black-armored captain gave the skinny man a flattering smile, and then his body was filled with a powerful aura, and he walked quickly towards the two dying stone giants with a ferocious look on his face.
At this moment, the door of the reception room opened, and the figures of Lei Xiao, Lila and other stone giants appeared at the door.
"what happened?!"
Looking at the two stone giant followers lying on the ground, Lila's beautiful eyes widened and she asked the envoy who was sitting firmly on the high seat: "What on earth is going on?"
"It's nothing, just two disobedient dogs. I am just giving them a lesson on behalf of the clan leader."
The skinny man looked indifferent. Although he called Lila "Mr. Chief", there was no respect in his tone. He said with disdain: "Why? Mr. Chief, you are not going to blame me for them, are you?"
"Knox, you are really going too far!"
Before Lila could respond, Kaila stepped forward and said to the high-handed messenger with her eyebrows raised: "Who did it just now? Don't even think about letting it go!"
"Oh? Everyone here is from the Throne Corridor. Could it be that the Great Elder is representing the Stone Giant to oppose the Throne Corridor?"
Knox shook his flame-colored robe again, and said confidently, "Then I, the envoy, will have to have a good talk with my Lord."
"you……"
Kayla's temper was obviously more aggressive, and she was about to continue to refute, but was stopped by Lila.
Lila just shook her head at the former, with a helpless look on her face.
In fact, this was not the first time that a similar situation had occurred. At the beginning, the messengers from the throne corridor were impolite, but not to the point of being unscrupulous.
But in recent years, as more and more second-rate forces bowed their heads, these messengers from the Throne Corridor became more and more arrogant.
Not only the Stone Giants, but also the Demi-Titans and some other second-rate forces encountered the same situation, and the clan leaders had no choice but to swallow their anger and were unable to do anything to the other side. After all, no one wanted to follow in the footsteps of the Frostfire Giants and other forces.
For a moment, not only Lila and Kayla, but even Peyton and the other stone giant elders who were accompanying them all lowered their heads helplessly.
As the black-armored warriors from the throne corridor were still trying to stop them, they didn't even have the chance to help up the two stone giant followers. They could only watch as the two followers became increasingly exhausted.
"Haha, it seems that the clan leader is more reasonable."
There was a hint of obscenity in Knox's eyes, and he looked back and forth at the slender bodies of Lila and Kayla with interest.
Before the other party could finish his words, a tall figure had unknowingly bypassed the strong men who were blocking the throne corridor and gave two healing potions to the two dying stone giant servants.
Needless to say, the one who was treating the stone giant servant was undoubtedly Lei Xiao.
After receiving the blessing of the healing potion, the pale faces of the two stone giant servants soon turned red, and even their breathing became steady.
Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a wave of space energy, before everyone could react, the two stone giant servants were instantly teleported away by Jasmine beside Lei Xiao.
"Who is this kid?"
Knox's eyes darkened again, and he said to Lila with disdain: "Mr. Chief, you stone giants really like to play the game of weak ants."
It was not difficult to tell from the other party's contemptuous tone that he obviously regarded Lei Xiao and others as stone giants who had used shapeshifting potions.
At this point, Knox's voice became sharp again, and he asked sternly: "Does this messenger allow you to send those two things away?"
After the other party finished speaking, a group of powerful men in black armor immediately surrounded Lei Xiao, all of them looking murderous.
"This……"
After seeing this scene, Lila and other stone giants were at a loss.
Before entering here, Lei Xiao had told them that they did not need to reveal their identities to the other party and just need to go with the flow. However, they did not know to what extent Lei Xiao meant by going with the flow.
But what is certain is that if Lei Xiao had not acted in time, the two young servants would not have been able to hold on.
"What do you want?"
Lei Xiao simply ignored the black-armored warriors who surrounded him and glanced at the messenger from the throne corridor.
Since he had already agreed to the request of Lila and others and decided to make the decision for the stone giant, he naturally would not take the messenger from the throne corridor seriously.
"What a fool!"
Knox's face was immediately bulging with veins, and he ordered the black-armored warriors around him: "Teach this kid a lesson for this messenger!"
Since Lei Xiao and others had deliberately concealed their strength, he had no idea of the former's weight. In addition, since becoming an envoy, he had been accustomed to being unscrupulous and would not allow anyone to challenge his authority. It was not surprising that this situation occurred.
However, as Knox's words fell, those powerful black-armored warriors who had been showing off their might just now all stood where they were, as if they had not heard the order.
"You bunch of rubbish, what are you still standing there for?"
Knox was stunned at first, and then he noticed that the bodies of the thugs he brought with him were extremely stiff, obviously restrained by some kind of spell!
"Is it space restraint?!"
Knox remembered the scene of the teleportation just now, and when he looked carefully, he found that the space around the thugs was slightly distorted and they could not move at all.
"You are really treacherous. How dare you attack the people in the throne corridor?"
Knox's momentum suddenly dropped by three points, and he was extremely surprised.
Ever since he became the messenger of the Throne Corridor, he has always acted like a bully wherever he goes. Even the leaders of a clan have to be respectful to him. How could he have ever encountered a situation like this?
In addition to being surprised, Knox's doubtful gaze fell on Lei Xiao again.
You know, in the past ten years or so, the stone giant has always been submissive and didn't even dare to neglect him in the slightest. How could he suddenly make such a bold move now?
"Boy, who are you?"
Knox's eyes became even gloomier, and he questioned Lei Xiao again.
"You now have two choices."
Lei Xiao did not answer the other party's question, but said calmly: "First, explain your purpose. Second, I hope you can hold on for a while during the interrogation, and then tell me your purpose."
"Are you threatening this messenger?"
Beads of sweat had already appeared on Knox's forehead, and he suddenly felt a chill on his back.
From Lei Xiao's eyes, he not only saw the unquestionable, but also the obvious murderous intent, which undoubtedly showed that the former was not bluffing, but the type of person who kept his word.
"I don't have a lot of patience."
Lei Xiao pulled a chair and sat down, and kicked over several black-armored warriors who were tightly bound in place around him. An extremely powerful aura surged out.
"Got it. This is exactly the purpose of this envoy coming here!"
Seeing Lei Xiao sitting down, Knox quickly took out a parchment scroll with gold edges from his arms.
At the end of the parchment scroll was engraved a jade seal that looked like a throne and a giant door. That was the symbol of the throne corridor.
He originally wanted to pretend to cough to show the majesty of the envoy, but after meeting Lei Xiao's slightly narrowed eyes, he even subconsciously jumped up from the seat at the top and trotted to Lei Xiao's front.
Even though he was also a genuine half-step seventh-level warrior, facing the powerful Lei Xiao, the mysterious Jasmine and Fei'er, and the three stone giants, Lila, he knew that there was no room for resistance at all.
After seeing this scene, Lila and other stone giants couldn't help but look excited.
For more than ten years, they have been walking on thin ice every time, helplessly listening to the orders of these high and mighty guys. But the arrival of His Majesty has completely reversed the positions of both parties, making the other side the one who bows its head. This is what they wanted to do but dared not do!
"In the name of the great Lord of the Corridor, the Broken Winged King..."
Nox's Adam's apple slid, and his voice lost its usual high-handedness. He whispered softly, "Summon the Lord of the Stone Giants, Lila, to lead the Stone Giant elders to the Throne Corridor headquarters for a meeting in one day."
"Let me wait for the meeting?"
Lila was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "What meeting?"
"Your Excellency, Patriarch, this is not something a lowly herald like me would know."
Knox's voice towards Lila was no longer as unscrupulous as before. He smiled helplessly and said, "I am just here to convey orders, that's all."
"Now you know you are just a herald? Where did your prestige go?"
Kira first subconsciously moved a little closer to Lei Xiao, and then snorted with disdain.
"Hehe, what the great elder said is right. I am ignorant of the immensity of the world."
Knox first glanced at Lei Xiao, and then had to nod in agreement.
"Sir, I have already conveyed my message, so I will not disturb you any more."
Knox smiled flatteringly at Lei Xiao, pointed at the black-armored thugs who had just been kicked all over the place by the latter and said: "Look..."
But Lei Xiao turned a deaf ear to it and still looked thoughtful with a frown on his face.
Since the meeting would be held a day later, it would definitely be the prelude to a head-on confrontation between him and his opponent.
Therefore, it is necessary to find out the content of the meeting as soon as possible and then make some small preparations.
Seeing that Lei Xiao did not respond, Knox no longer cared about these minions. He gritted his teeth and turned around to escape.
As he turned around, a barely perceptible grim look emerged on his thin face. When he returned to the throne corridor to meet the Broken Winged King, he would certainly describe the incident with exaggeration. By then, both this kid of unknown origin and the stone giant would be in big trouble!
Just when he was thinking about it, a calm voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Did I tell you to leave?"
"Sir, is there anything else?"
Knox's steps paused, and he turned to look at Lei Xiao again.
"Now that your business is over, it's time for mine to begin."
Lei Xiao rubbed his fists, slowly walked towards the trembling Knox, and said calmly: "Nothing, I'm just going to teach your master a lesson for the disobedient lackey."
As Lei Xiao finished speaking, the entire reception room was filled with wailing and the smell of blood filled the air. (End of this chapter)
