A Man Like None Other

Chapter 5195

Hu Mazi came back to his senses, swallowed hard, and quickly followed David’s footsteps.

Youyue looked at the backs of the two, her eyes flickered a few times, and she hurriedly followed. Crossing

the wide square, the three of them walked into the towering black palace.

The interior of the hall is more magnificent than it looks from the outside. The dome is dozens of feet high, carved with countless hideous magic patterns, emitting a faint fluorescence.

On both sides stand huge black stone pillars, with lifelike dragon statues wrapped around the pillars, as if they will come alive at any time.

At the end of the hall is a tall throne, carved from a whole piece of obsidian, inlaid with countless gems, exuding a luxurious and cold atmosphere.

Youyue asked David and Hu Mazi to sit on the stone chairs on both sides of the hall, and then clapped her hands.

Soon, two demon women dressed in maids’ clothes came in with tea. They lowered their heads, put the teacups on the stone table in front of the three people, and then quickly retreated, not daring to look up at David from beginning to end.

“Wait a moment, I have asked someone to check the ancient books of the Demon Palace.”

Youyue picked up the teacup and took a sip. “The history of Jiupan Mountain may be recorded in the ancient books of the Demon Palace.”

David picked up the teacup, took a look at the dark green tea inside, frowned slightly, and did not drink it.

The tea exuded a faint fishy smell, which was obviously not prepared for the human race.

Hu Mazi also imitated David, just holding the teacup, but looking around in the hall, with a hint of complicated emotions in his eyes.

This was once the ancestral land of his Hu family, but now it has become the palace of the demon clan. Things have changed and people have changed, which makes him feel a lot of emotions.noveldrama

The hall fell into silence for a while, only the fluorescence emitted by the dome magic pattern occasionally flickered, reflecting on the faces of the three people, and the atmosphere seemed a little subtle.

David closed his eyes, seemingly resting his mind, but in fact he was running his consciousness in secret, exploring the situation of the entire palace.

This Black Demon Palace is even larger than he imagined, with a complex internal structure. He can faintly feel dozens of powerful auras, some of which are as powerful as Youyue, or even stronger.

It seems that the water in this Black Demon Palace is much deeper than he imagined.

After an unknown amount of time, an old man in a gray robe walked in quickly, holding a yellowed ancient book in his hand. He walked up to Youyue and bowed, “Witch, I have checked all the records about Jiupan Mountain and found some information about the Hu family.”

Hu Mazi stood up suddenly and looked at the old man excitedly, “How is it? Is there any record on it? What happened to my Hu family?”

The old man glanced at Hu Mazi, then at Youyue, and when he saw Youyue nod, he slowly said, “According to records in ancient books, there is indeed a Hu family living in Jiupan Mountain. They were a famous talisman family in the Fourth Heaven at that time. There have been several talisman masters in the family. In its heyday, there was even a fourth-grade cultivator in the Earth Immortal Realm.”

“What happened later?” Hu Mazi asked, his voice trembling with excitement.

The old man sighed and continued, “About 2,800 years ago, the Hu family was suddenly attacked by an unknown force. The entire mountain was razed to the ground, and almost all the disciples in the family were wiped out. Only a few people escaped by chance and disappeared from then on.

As for who the attackers were, there is no detailed record in the ancient books. It only says that it was a group of powerful black-clothed men with extremely cruel methods.”

“What?” Hu Mazi was struck by lightning and staggered back a step, his face pale. “The family was exterminated? My Hu family… was exterminated?”

His eyes were full of pain and disbelief. His hands were clenched tightly into fists, his nails deeply embedded in his palms, and blood dripped down from his fingers. Although he had been mentally prepared, he still couldn’t accept the news when he heard it in person.
