Chapter 943
It was only at this moment that Woruo dared to take a moment to glance at Ji Chen, one of the group of young prodigies.
Judging from his expression, he didn't seem to notice anything unusual about Ji Chen.
After just one glance to confirm that Ji Chen was not seriously injured, Woruo looked away.
But as soon as he looked away, he inexplicably bumped into the leader's first alliance.
In that instant, Woruo's heart stopped beating, and his whole body tensed up.
Fortunately, the First Alliance simply followed his gaze and glanced at the group of young prodigies on the other side.
Starting with this, he spoke in a deep voice:
"I have already been to the land of the dead."
“These ‘young prodigies’ were snatched back from the Lord of the Underworld.”
"With your discerning eyes, you can surely see the strangeness of this matter."
As he spoke, he glanced at the Second Alliance, signaling them to continue.
The human race from the second alliance looks older than the little silver dragon.
He also possessed a carefree and detached air, looking like an ordinary old man who loved fishing.
Even his attire was a simple straw raincoat, quite reminiscent of ancient times.
Of the four acting alliance leaders, this second alliance leader is the only one who has a close personal relationship with Little Silver Dragon.
Having received a signal with his eyes, he naturally and tacitly replied:
"really--"
"These young prodigies are almost all under 100 years old."
"Yet some people, with wrinkled faces and white hair..."
"This is clearly a sign that someone has overburned their lifespan."
Indeed, some innate abilities can actively burn through one's lifespan.
Jiang Yi himself also possesses the talent to burn life.
However, upon hearing this, those few elderly "young prodigies" instantly showed a look of grievance in their eyes.
Some exceptional individuals seemed to want to say something.
In such a scene filled with big shots, he dared not interrupt and eventually kept quiet.
Fortunately, although the two alliance members had been out of touch with worldly affairs for many years, they looked like somewhat confused old men with white hair.
But he wasn't truly senile. He glanced at the expressions of those young prodigies and continued:
"However, given the temperament of such a young prodigy, he would naturally not do something like burning away his lifespan and ruining his future."
So, if I'm not mistaken—
"They must have been forcibly burned by someone else."
Just as the Second Alliance was analyzing Little Silver Dragon's words.
The other bigwigs present were also carefully considering their options.
Following the Second Alliance's words, the Fifth Alliance, feeling that as the current leader, bore the greatest responsibility, also took the initiative to speak:
"Who else could it be... the Lord of the Underworld?"
Upon hearing this, Woruo, the city lord of the City of Ten Thousand Races, was startled.
He subconsciously glanced at Ji Chen again, a chill running down his spine.
"The Lord of the Underworld abducted a young prodigy and forcibly burned away his lifespan?!"
"How dare he do such a blasphemous and taboo thing?!"
The four alliance members, who were just watching the show, snorted as if nothing had happened:
"Why wouldn't he dare? The Lord of the Underworld has no ties, so he can act without any scruples."
"But speaking of which, to dare to be so reckless... could it be that one's lifespan is coming to an end?"
Woruo was alarmed and quickly replied:
"So, he abducts young prodigies and burns their lifespans, perhaps to prolong his own life as his own lifespan is about to end?"
At this moment, the little silver dragon in the head seat addressed a rather aged young prodigy:
"Why don't you tell yourselves what you've been through?"
As he spoke, the little silver dragon waved his hand.
The young prodigy, who had been listless, suddenly became alert.
He looked at the silver-robed man in the head seat, feeling extremely grateful.
After all, it was this man in silver robes who saved them from the abyss.
The young prodigy quickly and respectfully replied:
"Reporting to all the esteemed elders, I am Zhuo Er, a member of a collateral branch of the Ziyun Kongyan clan."
"I was abducted by a plume of black smoke in the primary realm battlefield of the newly emerging race, the Riftwave Zerg."
"When I regained consciousness, I was in the underground space where my senior had rescued me."
"In that space, it seemed that all spatial techniques were unusable, and I could not sense any change in time."
"He was simply bound by chains by a mysterious man in black robes and fed elixirs of immortality every day..."
"In the beginning, my mental state was okay, and I tried to struggle to survive."
"But soon, my mental state deteriorated, and I became less and less lucid."
"At the same time, my physical body is aging rapidly as I consume large amounts of longevity pills every day..."
"If it weren't for your rescue, senior, I'm afraid..."
The rest is self-evident.
The bigwigs around the square table were filled with surprise and doubt upon hearing this description.
after all--
Woro spoke first: "Should I immediately compile a list of personnel from the same batch as this person who logged into the primary realm battlefield of the Riftwave Zerg?"
His subconscious thought was to consult the current leader of the Five Alliances.
After a moment's thought, the Five Alliance members nodded and said, "Investigating is fine, but I think—"
"Given the Lord of the Yellow Springs' mastery of spatial rules, perhaps he has reached the point where he can directly trespass into the primary realm battlefield by utilizing spatial rules?"
"After all, I've heard that not long ago, the Lord of the Underworld also kidnapped people directly from the black market?"
He glanced meaningfully at Que Yun and Lu Li, the two young prodigies who had been abducted directly from the black market by the Lord of the Underworld.
After pondering for a moment, he said in a deep voice:
"But why—"
"The Lord of the Underworld previously abducted the prodigy quietly and without causing much of a commotion."
"But this time, they kidnapped people directly from the black market, and one of them was even the young master of the black market..."
"There's something fishy about causing such a commotion."
This suspicion is justified.
However, Woro quickly speculated:
"Could it be because the Lord of the Underworld is indeed nearing the end of his lifespan, and is therefore acting more and more recklessly, completely disregarding everything else?"
After speaking, he seemed to realize that he had been a bit too talkative, so he cautiously looked at the chief of the alliance.
