261 Chapter 259 : : The Trio's Arrival - 2

After greeting and a quick chat with Fred, Jiang Shuang directly took the trio to the guest hall on the second floor of the castle.

The trio was surprised again when they entered the guest hall because the walls of the hall were curved and had no corners whatsoever, furthermore, almost everything inside the hall was made of different glass-like materials, even the walls had a glass coating with flowery design on them. There was a cuboid-shaped green glass table in the center of the hall and ten sofa-like chairs around it.

Sung Lee slightly frowned when he looked at the ten light green chairs that also seem to be made of some glass-like material, those chair didn't have four legs but were like a cuboid whose upper side was carved into a chair-like shape, the problem that bothered Sung Lee was that their surface was flat as a mirror and there was not even a cushion on them.

Although he lived a very simple life in the sect but whenever he was invited by others he always got highly luxurious treatment and here he needed to sit on hard flat chairs that was after he ignored the fact that he needed to walk all the way without even a carriage and on top of that his two ancestors were also with him.

When he was still thinking, Sung Suyin and Sung Huang walked forwards without a delay and took the seat, they could guess what he was thinking but according to them every person has a different way of treating others they would not reach a conclusion without enough facts, for example, if Rex had also invited someone else and gave them better treatment then they would, of course, feel humiliated.

But right now they were the only ones and they were also the ones that needed to come here for their own good not the other way around so there was no need for Rex to flatter them in the first place.

Sung Huang was pondering and trying to figure out the hidden meaning behind Rex's actions as he sat on the chair, but suddenly his eyes got wide in surprise the second he sat on the chair.

He discovered that when he just sat on the chair its flat and hard looking surface turned soft like jelly, he felt like his body got sunk in it to experience the greatest comfort, he also realized that the jelly-like substance was sucking the coldness on his body resulting in a warm feeling to balance his body temperature.

He closed his eyes and enjoyed the long lost feeling of someone embracing him.

Sung Suyin and Sung Lee were confused when they saw the hard looking chair slightly changing the shape like it was gripping on Sung Huang's body but the thing that surprised them more was he seem to be.... enjoying it.

They too quickly sat on the chair near him and soon found out the reason behind it.

Jiang Shuang only slightly laughed when he saw them like that, his reaction was the same when he first witnessed the effect of Jellinoid Sofa for the first time.

Jellinoid was the name his non-metal used to make those lite-sofas, as the name says it had jelly like properties, and one the shape was given to it using Transmutate it won't get deformed easily even in extreme change in temperature, it's density at different places was altered to not let it completely lose it's shape when someone uses the sofa.

This has its natural ability which could manage the temperature around it, if the person in contact with it has a high body temperature then it will suck heat until it becomes the same as room temperature, and if it's cold it will also suck the coldness until it reached the room temperature.

The only reason Rex didn't use it to make his bed is, it can also suck any liquid spilled on it and lock it inside, so if baby beast drooled while sleeping then it gonna suck that too which won't be pleasant in long term use.

After Sung Huang comfortably sat down he removed the hood which he found annoying all of a sudden and showed his face.

Jiang Shuang had already seen the faces of the other two and if Rex came to check his body then he would need to reveal his face anyway so he wasn't bothered by revealing it in advance and it wasn't that big of a secret for him.

When the other two saw him doing that they didn't remain reserve either and also removed the annoying hood.

Sung Huang was also an ordinary-looking old man like Sung Suyin but he had an oval-shaped face and was taller than him.

The trio had long been made themselves comfortable for who knows how long but suddenly they heard a stomping sound with the rhythm of footsteps approaching the hall, their slightly drunken state body look like it received a bolt of current as they got on full alert within a second, it was one of the ability they developed in all these years they would be like this even when they are in deep sleep, even the slightest noise of any unhidden malicious intent directed at them could wake them up.

When they looked at the gate they, saw a green-haired woman walking inside the hall, it looked like she was stomping the ground with every single step she took, she seemed to be in quite a bad mood.

The woman had long green hairs and emerald green eyes which were standing out stating the fact that there were very low chances for her being a human.

She was wearing a long green frock covering her from chest to her toes, it made her look like a head madam in a noble household, coupled with her strong presence she would have even looked like a queen... if her temperament was not taken into account.

The second the trio saw her, they all stood up not because they found the woman too attractive or anything but the aura of Calamity Lord she was not even bothering to hide.

Sung Huang became alert when he saw her, he mobilized the Qi in his body to take action within a moment's notice but outside he still maintained his calm expression and greeted her.

But Lerna completely ignored them and sat on a sofa beside Jiang Shuang, after she sat she folded her left leg on top of her right leg to make herself more comfortable, she then took out a round spirit fruit from her storage ring and started munching on it.

Sung Huang was a little embarrassed but he didn't show any dissatisfaction and quietly sat down, he also told the other two to lay low and not to make any commotion.

Jiang Shuang gave a brief introduction of Lerna, saying she was Lady Lerna: The Fourth Guardian of Frozen Flame, he was trying to hold a conversation but Lerna also ignored him without a second thought.

Lerna was in a really bad mood, she was enjoying her time seeing the sleeping face-s of her baby but then Rex suddenly barged into the room and told her to attend some useless meeting with him so how could she be in a good mood to hold a conversation with these three shady humans.

He felt like he was a local weapon dealer who was invited for a business deal and saw a nuclear bomb lying in the corner of the meeting room.

Lerna was uncomfortable when she noticed the creepy old man staring at the spirit fruit in her hand, as a former wild beast she gets really angry when someone eyes her food especially when she is in a bad mood like right now so she fiercely stared back at him.

Sung Suyin quickly shrunk back his neck in response.

Sung Lee was quiet but his back was cold even though the sofa was trying to adjust his body temperature with the best of its ability, earlier he felt slightly assured because Jiang Shuang was weaker than him and when he entered the castle he found out that there were no guards, all the maids and servants were even weaker than Jiang Shuang, so he began to think that his teacher and the other ancestor was being overly cautious this place wasn't as dangerous as they think.

Only now did he realize how naive his thoughts were, they didn't have guards because there was no need too, who in the right mind will rush into the castle where beasts at Calamity Lord stage were residents.

I am still too young... he thought.

Sung Huang was running the horses in his head and then another light of wisdom flashed through his eyes.

{When we arrived at this city I felt that the temperature here was a little colder and the spiritual Qi was denser than usual but I was confused when I thought how could such a place remain hidden in the continent from over eyes when we lived here for so long, after all, there are not many important places in Golden Bird Continent that we haven't visited yet.

Sung Suyin and Sung Lee, both of them almost fell off their sofa when they heard that.

{Most likely... actually there is one more possibility in which she is not the King of Forest, if she is really working for Frozen Flame and is a guardian as he said then maybe the King of Forest is non-other than Shadow Lord himself who has taken over this Misty Maze Forest long ago.

Sung Lee broke in a cold sweat, Sung Suyin was no better they only believed Shadow was an extreme business trying to hastily expand the range of his business but now it felt like he was like a dragon with a visible head but a hidden tail.

Everyone knew him by the title King of Forest all along but then he revealed his title and no one recognized him even when his deeds throughout the years were something that made others don't dare show their face in his territory... the felt like all the fact were always in front of them but they still didn't realize it.

After thinking for a few seconds Sung Huang spoke again.

The other two looked at Lerna then at each other before slightly nodding at him and trying to forcibly calm their heart down. Due to their intense training of controlling their emotions in situations likes these it wasn't too hard for them to calm down their fast-beating heart.

At the same time, they thought that they were lucky to have such a smart person beside them or they wouldn't have been able to see anything at all.

If Rex had listened to Sung Huang's hypothesis he would have saluted him on the spot while asking... brother are you interested in joining Frozen Flame? he was really having trouble coming up with new stories to cover up the old ones so such an imaginative person was a hidden treasure he was in need of all along.

"Am I too late?"

When the trio was still running their wild imagination an unfamiliar voice woke them up.
