Chapter 198 Triggering the Wife-Marrying Mission
The place where the sword is hidden is brightly lit.
At the end of the Sword Sacrifice Ceremony, Fatuna prepared a grand dinner to entertain the powerful men from the major imperial clans in the Western Regions.
At this moment, the heat of the dinner party has been completely seized by Zhao Mu.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhao Mu, and everyone wanted to get to know Zhao Mu.
Zhao Mu was still arranged to sit at the main seat at the dinner party.
Those who sat at the same table with him were all the patriarchs of the major imperial clans in the Western Regions.
Originally, Zhao Mu didn't like this kind of social occasions, and he also had certain ideas about the land of the Western Regions. If he became too familiar with these Western Region powerhouses, it would be inconvenient for him to take action in the future.
But I couldn't resist Fatuna's enthusiasm.
The tribal leader is youthful, lively and free-spirited. The key is that the look in her eyes when she looks at Zhao Mu is full of admiration. She has completely become Zhao Mu's little fan girl. How can Zhao Mu have the nerve to reject her?
After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became more harmonious.
After continuous conversation, Zhao Mu had a general understanding of the situation in the Western Regions.
There are three major tribes and seven imperial clans in the Western Regions.
The Turan tribe is the leader of the three major tribes, and its comprehensive strength is considered to be the strongest in the Western Regions.
Among the imperial clans, the You family is the most powerful.
Moreover, the You family has even greater development potential because it has produced a top-level genius, You Xun'er.
"Taking over the Western Regions is actually easier than I thought. All we need to do is take over the Turan Tribe and the You Family."
Zhao Mu murmured in his heart, his eyes fell on Fatuna and Youxun'er.
"Ding, wife-marriage mission announced: Marry Fatuna and Youxun'er. Rewards: ten large-scale mineral veins, ten resource-rich imperial-grade cave paradises, and the Earth-grade immortal art [Shrinking the Earth into an Inch]."
Brother Tongzi really understands me.
Moreover, the rewards this time are also very generous, especially the magic of shrinking the earth into an inch. If I remember correctly, this should be a space-based magic, similar to teleportation.
The specific effect will not be known until you get your hands on it, but it will definitely not disappoint you.
Our brother Tongzi is not a errand boy.
Later in the night.
The dinner finally ended.
Fatuna warmly invited Zhao Mu and Ji Zi to stay in the tribe and arranged accommodation for them.
The other members of the imperial family had to return overnight.
You Xun'er was also taken away by the head of the You family.
Zhao Mu was a little disappointed, but then he thought that now was not the time.
It’s better to go to the abyss first, and talk about getting married when I come back.
At that time, he would definitely go to the You family in person.
Well now.
After Ji Zi returned to her room, Zhao Mu did not follow her, but called Fatuna alone.
It was late at night and there was no one around. Fatuna and Zhao Mu were alone in the courtyard, and the atmosphere was a little subtle.
The little leader looked at Zhao Mu's handsome profile shining in the moonlight, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and his cheeks became hot.
But she didn't think much about it, she just thought that Zhao Mu wanted to discuss something with her.
"Chief Fatuna, thank you for your hospitality today. Actually, I came to Huangquan Canyon this time to find the entrance to the abyss. The Turan tribe has guarded this place for generations. I wonder if you know anything about it?"
"You're going to the abyss?"
Hearing Zhao Mu's words, Fatuna stood up in surprise and looked at Zhao Mu in disbelief.
She really knew something about the situation. It seemed like I had found the right person.
Zhao Mu nodded: "I still have a grudge to settle with the demon race."
"Is it because of the demon tribe's invasion of the Southern Territory?"
Fatuna questioned.
The previous invasion of the demon tribe in the Southern Region caused considerable panic in the Western Region.
Fortunately, the Southern Region quickly resolved the crisis of demon invasion and prevented the harm from spreading.
"That's it."
Fatuna hesitated for a moment and said, "In that case, I won't hide it from Master Zhao. In fact, the ancestors of our Tulan tribe were subordinates who followed the Human Ancestor back then. After the Human Ancestor killed the Black Mountain King with a single sword, the Black Mountain King's true spirit did not die immediately. A part of his true spirit drilled through space and took the opportunity to escape back to the abyss, leaving behind a spatial rift. In order to prevent the demons from using this spatial rift to return to the human world, our ancestors of the Fatu family volunteered to stay here and guard the spatial rift for generations."
"In fact, our Fatu family has also sent many powerful warriors to sneak into the abyss through space cracks to gather intelligence on the demon race. Therefore, our family has a relatively good understanding of the abyss."
"In principle, we won't allow outsiders to use space cracks to enter the abyss. The abyss is a terrifying place. It's not just the demons that are terrifying, but many other threats as well. However, Mr. Zhao has inherited the legacy of Emperor Xuanyuan, and your strength is considered to be at the pinnacle of the Holy Xuan Continent. If it's you... perhaps..."
Having said that, Fatuna's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed.
Zhao Mu saw that she was worried, so he said, "Just tell me. I will do my best to help you wherever I can."
Fatuna took a deep breath and said, "Before, I said that my father had passed away and I inherited the position of tribal leader. In fact, I told outsiders that my father disappeared while exploring the abyss... That happened more than ten years ago. Since then, we have sent many tribesmen into the abyss to try to find my father's whereabouts, but to no avail."
"But I know that my father is probably not dead yet!"
"Everyone, including my brother, advised me to give up the search. I also didn't want to bring unnecessary sacrifices to my people, so I sealed the entrance to the abyss and no longer allowed anyone to enter."
"Master Zhao, I can reopen the entrance to the abyss for you, but I have one request... You must take me with you to the abyss."
"Forehead……"
Zhao Mu thought that she wanted Zhao Mu's help to find his father's whereabouts in the abyss.
I didn't expect that she actually wanted to go in person.
"This is very dangerous." Zhao Mu advised.
Fatuna nodded. "I know, but I'm the only one who can sense my father's presence. If he's still alive, I'm the only one who can find him. I'm the most suitable candidate. But no matter how I explained it before, the elders and my brothers refused to agree. They didn't want me to risk my life in the abyss."
Zhao Mu thought for a moment and then came up with a plan.
"I can take you to the abyss, but you must follow my instructions throughout the journey and not act on your own. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee your safety."
With the Ten Thousand Demons Banner in hand, the threat posed by the abyss to Zhao Mu will be greatly reduced.
Bringing one more person shouldn't be a big problem.
What's more, Fatuna is a candidate for his wife, so he will definitely not miss this opportunity to increase her favorability.
Fatuna was overjoyed: "No problem, Mr. Zhao, I will definitely behave myself."
"Then when do we set off?" Zhao Mu asked.
"There are twelve keys to open the gate to the abyss. I only have two. The other ten are in the hands of the tribal elders. All the elders must come forward at the same time to open it. I will gather the elders after dawn and convince them."
"What about you? The elders probably won't agree to you going to the abyss with me."
"Don't worry, I have a clever plan."
