The Glory of Noxus

In front of the majestic palace complex.

Huo Jixing stepped towards the triumphal steps. The Statik electric blade was hidden in the black scabbard and hung at his waist.

This visit was a fruitful one.

Not only did he obtain the Empire's secret treasure, the Statik Electric Blade, but he also used his legendary strength to almost fill the favorability levels of Swain and Darius.

After all, Huo Jixing's net worth is very innocent.

In the Northland battlefield, with his efforts and military exploits, he gained the appreciation and trust of Darius.

Later, he was seconded to the Reiser Garrison and completed many secret missions, winning Swain's attention and recognition.

Under the premise of such a full stack, everything becomes logical.

Huo Jixing went down the steps and not far away, he saw a strange team coming down the steps in front of him.

Looking from a distance, there was a group of fourteen people, wearing black armor and gray cloaks, holding swords.

There are six people on each side, protecting the two people in the center.

They were slowly leaving under the cold gaze of the soldiers of Trifali Legion.

Huo Jixing smelled the aura of the northern border in them, mixed with the arrogance of the nobility.

"A member of the Varrocan family?"

Huo Jixing's heart moved, and he immediately understood the identity of the team in front of him.

Then his eyes fell into the center of the team and saw two people who were obviously different from the attendant guards.

They have similar attire and equipment.

Her long black hair was braided into delicate and dense braids, hanging down her shoulders. There were sharp-edged tattoos on her cold face, and she was covered with a slate-gray cloak outside her armor.

The armored man walked in front, and the black-haired woman trailed half a step behind, silently expressing their status in the Varrokan family.

Hearing the light footsteps coming from behind, the two of them quickly looked over and looked a little surprised when they saw Huo Jixing's young face.

"Please step aside." Huo Jixing said politely.

Although he was in the side hall just now, he had already learned from Swain the fate of the team in front of him.

But he couldn't show it so obviously.

"you"

In the marching team, the armored man with a higher status was about to reprimand, but after seeing Huo Jixing's cold eyes, he swallowed all his words.

Then Huo Jixing passed them and disappeared on the triumphal steps.

"Who is he?"

The armored man looked around and spoke with a gloomy expression.

However, no one among the soldiers of Trifali Legion on the steps paid attention to his words.

"you."

"Let's leave as soon as possible."

Beside him, the pale black-haired woman grabbed the man's arm and spoke softly: "Don't forget what just happened in the palace."

Thinking of the humiliation he had just suffered, the armored man's face turned red and he spoke angrily.

"Swain will definitely agree to our terms, I can guarantee it."

"He knows that Dredge Fort is too important to the Empire to let us close the door."

"But Darius will never agree." The black-haired woman thought of everything that happened in Trifali Council, her tone was difficult.

"Darius?"

The armored man chuckled softly, noticed the cold eyes of the soldiers of the Trifali Legion around him, and said into his sister's ear.

"Darius is an arrogant mad dog. He thinks he can capture the Diver Fort casually?"

"But you are right about one thing, Darius will not agree." The armored man looked quite conceited, as if he had already mastered everything.

"But you have to understand how the Trifari Council works, the Council of Three."

"If we convince Swain, then we only need to win over one more person to recognize our terms."

"Any matter can be passed as long as two people agree."

"You mean the Faceless Ones?"

The black-haired woman spoke subconsciously, feeling suddenly uneasy in her heart. She was vaguely aware that a net was slowly opening towards the Varrokan family.

"of course."

The armored man's eyes flashed with danger as he thought of Darius' humiliation to him just now.

No one in the Noxus Empire knows the identity of the third member of the Trefari Council.

This is the cunning power of Noxtali, who is the embodiment of cunning in the Council of Three.

However, there are always surprises in everything.

The midday sun penetrates the clouds and casts a layer of golden glow on the stretching buildings.

Huo Jixing returned to his residence.

He was about to knock on the door, but his eyes flickered to the dark shadow in the corner.

In the capital of Noxus, every street and alley is very narrow, and the roof of every building is built with crenellations, just like the fortifications of a castle, which is cold and forbidding.

This kind of architectural style is designed for war. Any Noxian can occupy the high ground and launch an attack on the enemy in a short period of time.

The combination of the two makes it difficult to hide people in the streets and alleys, but there are indeed exceptions for some people.

"Tailong!" Huo Jixing spoke softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow flickered, and Tai Lung came out wearing a silver cloak.

"Long time no see!"

When Huo Jixing saw Tailong, he walked over with a smile on his face and stretched out his right hand.

Tai Long looked at the familiar young man in front of him, the cold expression on his face relaxed slightly, and a smile appeared on his lips.

But in the next moment, his eyes became serious, and he felt a terrifying dangerous aura approaching him.

This reminded him of the feeling he had when he was a child, facing General Du Quecao.

That unspeakable sense of oppression, as if the whole world is putting pressure on you, making it impossible to breathe.

Even though Huo Jixing's concealment was perfect, Tai Long still noticed something unusual about him.

Tai Long hesitated for a moment, but finally stretched out his palm and gently shook Huo Jixing's hand.

Huo Jixing noticed Tailong's emotional changes and sighed inwardly, the intuition of Blade Shadow.

"Let's go in and sit down."

Then he invited Tai Lung into his residence.

They had worked together on a mission in Rocklund before, and it had been quite some time since then.

"This is Mr. Tai Lung?"

Heini opened the door and saw Tai Long beside Huo Jixing, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

As a sword boy, Heini had served many extraordinary beings. During a mission, he saw Tai Lung from a distance.

However, at that time, Tai Lung had a cold expression and refused to let strangers in. However, his unique dress and silver blade cloak left a deep impression on Heini.

"Yes."

Huo Jixing nodded, told Heini to prepare food, and then entered the room with Tai Long.

In the study room, the two of them sat opposite each other.

"Come to me, what's the matter?" Huo Jixing said straight to the point.

He understands Tai Lung's character. If there is nothing important, he will basically not come here to see him.

Tai Long looked at Huo Jixing. Compared with Rocklund, Huo Jixing had changed very obviously.
