Chapter 482 Capital Concert Tai Lung’s Encounter


Chapter 482 Tai Lung’s encounter at the Capital Concert

With the invasion of the cold winter wind.

The capital of Noxus seems to have completely entered winter, and the bustling and noisy atmosphere is gradually extinguishing.

Occasionally, the cold wind from the Sea of ​​Guardians will sweep over the mountains and ridges.

Facing the cold weather, the Noxians living in the capital wore thick clothes one after another to resist the cold wind.

Many caravans have also begun to reduce travel and choose to wait for the end of winter.

On the narrow streets extending in all directions, there are only a few people, and most of the people who come out are ordinary people who are tired from running around.

Wrapped tightly in thick coats, they walked hurriedly and entered the silent and deserted stretches of buildings, suffering the oppression of life.

In this cold season, the Black Rose Incident is gradually coming to an end.

Things went very smoothly. Under the strong suppression of Darius, Kled and other imperial heroes, the Black Rose fell into a desperate situation.

In the past, the members of the Black Rose were all famous people. Their power spread all over the empire, and no one dared to compete with them.

But now they have almost become rats on the street, everyone shouts and beats them, and they are full of silence.

At noon, the streets and lanes of the capital became increasingly noisy, with people talking about the destruction of the Black Rose.

Those who were once in awe of the black rose have come forward to accuse the black rose of its insidiousness, as if this can wash away their former fear and submission.

People who were oppressed by the Black Rose in the past took to the streets to celebrate the downfall of the Black Rose.

The only bad news is that despite the tragic loss of the Black Rose, LeBlanc, the leader, never showed up.

It seems that he has completely given up on Black Rose and disappeared from the sight of many spies.

No one knows where LeBlanc has gone, and no one knows why she chose to disappear at this moment.

Huo Jixing followed Elise's advice and searched for forgotten ancient corners of the empire many times, but still found no trace of LeBlanc.

But this seemingly simple thing has always yielded no results, making Huo Jixing and Swain even more wary of LeBlanc who has no trace.

After all, LeBlanc is the soul of the Black Rose, and her ingenuity and skill have influenced the empire for thousands of years.

Hidden like this, the remaining people of LeBlanc and Black Rose must be plotting an unknown conspiracy secretly.

But no matter what, the destruction of Black Rose's overt forces is a foregone conclusion.

Many swaying nobles and magic secret societies saw the fate of the Black Rose and firmly devoted themselves to the Trifali Council camp.

Under the pressure of the general situation, the Trifali Council and Swain completely stabilized the situation in the empire and continued the purge operation.

They transformed into scavengers of the empire, plucking out the black roses stuck in the empire's body to ensure its absolute stability.

In front of the Imperial General's residence.

The biting weather seems to be unable to stop the noisy atmosphere.

The imperial nobles rode in gorgeous and exquisite carriages, swarming in front of the heavy mansion, blocking the streets.

These carriages are inlaid with gold rims, beautifully carved patterns, and have badges representing noble status on both sides.

The guards responsible for driving gathered their thick clothes and leaned against the car door, gathering together and talking softly.

Occasionally, they would use the corner of their eyes to look at the nearby mansion and the soldiers of the Trifali Legion guarding it, full of envy.

In the field of vision, the soldiers of the Trifali Legion were wearing red cloaks, ignoring the cold wind, wearing sharp armor, and guarding the safety of the general's mansion.

During this period, Katarina's name resounded throughout the Imperial Legion and beyond as the Black Rose incident progressed.

Many chapter leaders marveled at Caterina, believing that she had restored the former prestige of the Du Cacao family.

As the sun sets over the west mountain, crimson glow fills the sky.

The heavy iron door opened from the inside, and nobles dressed in gorgeous dresses and exquisite headdresses came out with smiles on their faces. They must have met Catalina.

After a while.

The gorgeous carriage in front of the door gradually drove away, no longer noisy, leaving silence and tranquility.

In the distance, Huo Jixing waited until all the carriages left, then strolled to the door of the mansion.

After he finished dealing with the urgent matters of the Reiser Guards, he did not choose to return to his residence, but came to find Catalina.

The recent black rose incident has made the two rarely meet. Now they are much more relaxed, so Huo Jixing came over to take a look.

The guarding Cui Fali Legion soldiers knew Huo Jixing, and after saluting respectfully, they opened the door.

Huo Jixing walked along the corridor, his steps brisk and familiar.

He is very familiar with this place because he comes here often.

The walls on both sides of the corridor are hung with exquisite murals, describing the many wars in the rise of the empire.

Perhaps winter has arrived, and the corridor floor is covered with thick carpets, brightly colored, soft to the touch, and giving people a comfortable feeling.

At the end of the corridor is a carved door. There are swords hanging on the left and right door leaves, and the atmosphere of war is filled with it, showing the merits and glory of the Du Kecao family based on the empire.

Huo Jixing opened the door and entered the room. A slightly warm breath hit his face instantly.

It is the flame burning in the fireplace.

Orange flames danced, illuminating the spacious conference hall and driving away the winter chill.

Katerina, dressed in military uniform, stood in front of the rectangular conference table, staring at the map of the empire laid out in front of her.

There were also some opened letterheads and many important documents piled around. It looked like a meeting had just ended.

Hearing the sound of the door, Catalina raised her eyes and saw Huo Jixing, a gentle smile appeared on her cold face.

“You’re here!” Catalina said softly, with unbearable fatigue in her eyes.

Huo Jixing walked over, came to Catalina's side, and took her into his arms.

Smelling the fragrance in his nose, Huo Jixing gently stroked Catalina's hair, running his fingers through her hair, bringing a trace of comfort and tranquility.

Katrina closed her eyes, enjoying the gentle touch, and her body gradually relaxed.

Neither of them spoke, they just hugged each other quietly, feeling each other's heartbeats.

The orange firelight of the fireplace reflected on their bodies, giving their figures a golden halo.

Time passed slowly, and the dark night filled the sky.

"Lady Catalina, dinner is ready."

The voice of the guard came from outside the door, breaking the quiet atmosphere in the room.

Katrina reluctantly left Huo Jixing's arms and looked at the face in front of her, her eyes full of love.

Huo Jixing chuckled softly, brushed Catalina's face, and took her out of the conference hall to the restaurant on the left.

Inside the restaurant.

The glazed chandelier sheds soft light, and the round table is filled with delicacies and the aroma is fragrant.

Huo Jixing and Catalina sat around the round table, enjoying dinner.

They chatted, talking about recent events and sharing each other's moods.

Katrina chatted casually about the meeting that just ended, with a hint of complaint in her tone.

After the empire eliminated the forces on the surface of Black Rose, many key positions and many profit channels were vacated.

These vacancies have attracted the attention of many imperial warlords and nobles.

Like hyenas that smelled flesh and blood, they quickly gathered around and wanted to take it for themselves.

Most of the nobles who came to visit recently were motivated by these interest entanglements.

With false smiles and expensive gifts, they tried to show their sincerity and strength in front of Catalina and win relevant benefits.

And Catalina also knew the intentions of these nobles.

After the meeting, she did not give any promises or statements easily, just a simple conversation.

The nobles were not annoyed either. Even if they did not get any benefits in the end, it was not bad to leave an impression on Catalina.

Katrina is no longer what she used to be. She was once just the top assassin in the empire.

But now he has become an imperial general, with many forces behind him.

"Don't pay too much attention to them, just find some excuse to deal with it." Huo Jixing said softly.

“After the deliberations of the Trifali Council, Swain is preparing to promote the mid-level officers of the battle group, as well as the new nobles who have been promoted based on their military exploits.” This purge of the Black Rose brought many changes to the empire, and many people emerged. A heroic figure with outstanding achievements in battle.

They are the perfect replacement for the Black Rose members.

These newly promoted officers and nobles are elites tempered in the flames of war, and their abilities and loyalty have been rigorously tested.

Compared with the original old nobles, they are more suitable for the current Noxus Empire and have a very strong sense of honor.

“We must ensure that these new forces can be smoothly integrated into the core structure of the empire.”

“At the same time, we must ensure that they will not be squeezed out by the old forces and old nobles. "

After saying that, Huo Jixing shrugged his shoulders and swallowed the food in his mouth.

“Actually, you don’t need to be too concerned about those nobles. Don’t forget that I am still behind you.”

Catalina pursed her lips, nodded slightly to Huo Jixing, and put down the tableware in her hands as if she was full.

Before getting up and leaving the table, she glanced at Huo Jixing, with a hint of shyness in the corner of her eyes, coupled with a noble aura, which was unique.

"I'm going to take a shower first."

Huo Jixing knew the elegant meaning after hearing the song. After clearing the food in front of him, he went straight to Catalina's bedroom.

Late in the dead of winter.

In the bedroom illuminated by candlelight, the swaying bed boards stopped, and the smell of heather filled the air.

Huo Jixing asked curiously while holding Catalina curled up in his arms.

"Did you use fragrant powder? You have a little more fragrance."

"Well, I specially ordered some fragrant powder in Piltover. There are many flavors." Carter Lina said in a lazy tone.

“Well, I can change it more next time, it tastes really good.”

Huo Jixing reached out and brushed away the wet hair from Catalina's forehead and whispered.

When Catalina heard this, her face turned red with embarrassment, her tight and tall body pressed against the warm embrace.

"Why don't you wait and change the flavor?"

Huo Jixing noticed Catalina's lustful look, but considering her body, he did not agree directly.

“Let’s take a rest first.”

After being gentle for a while, Catalina couldn't help but hugged Huo Jixing's body and let him carry her to the bathroom.

Wait until it comes out.

Katrina's body was weakly leaning on Huo Jixing, her skin showing moisture and luster.

"There is a concert in the capital recently, do you want to go and see it?" She looked at Huo Jixing and asked with a searching gaze.

Huo Jixing raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Catalina in surprise.

From what he knew, Catalina didn't seem to care much about this aspect.

“Concert?”

Huo Jixing repeated it, trying to make sure he heard it correctly.

Katrina nodded, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

“I want to avoid those nobles and relax.”

Obviously, Catalina was a little annoyed by the frequent visits from nobles.

"Well, that's okay."

Huo Jixing laughed softly, understanding what Catalina meant, and agreed directly.

“Whose concert is it?”

“Seraphine’s.”

"I heard that she is very popular in Piltover and Zaun. This time I was invited to come to the capital to hold a concert."

Xinglai Diva Seraphine!

Huo Jixing's eyes flickered, and information about Seraphine appeared in his mind.

Seraphine was born in Piltover, but her parents were Zaunites.

Unlike ordinary people, Seraphine has shown unique talents since she was a child.

She could hear other people's souls, as if the whole world was singing to her.

And she also uses her singing to respond to the world, using music to convey emotion and power.

Through hard work, Seraphine became the most dazzling star in both Piltover and Zaun, with many ardent fans.

These fans are crazy about Salefenli's music and fall in love with her charm.

Huo Jixing once met Seraphine's fan group in Piltover.

"Then let's go take a look and enjoy Seraphine's music."

Huo Jixing lowered his head and kissed Catalina's forehead, hugging her body tightly.

"Go to bed early."

"Yeah!"

Katrina closed her eyes, lay in the warm embrace, and fell asleep hugging each other.

The next morning, the gentle sunlight shines on the bedroom bed through the window.

Huo Jixing woke up automatically, looked at Catalina in his arms, and quietly left the bedroom, preparing to go to the Leiser Guard Corps.

When he walked out of the mansion, he happened to meet Talon in a silver cloak.

The two met at the door, smiled and hugged each other gently.

Tailon has already understood the relationship between Catalina and Huo Jixing.

He was not surprised by Huo Jixing's appearance.

Tailon understood that the important reason why Catalina could successfully inherit the position of general was Huo Jixing's support.

"Did the mission go well?" Huo Jixing smelled the faint smell of blood remaining on Tailong's body.

"It went very well."

Tailong replied in a low voice, without any joy in his voice, but his eyes were a little gloomy.

He originally thought that the disappearance of General Du Couteau might be related to the Black Rose.

Therefore, during this period, Tai Lung frequently went out to perform tasks and eliminate the members of the Black Rose,

but the results were not what he expected.

So far in Tai Lung's investigation, he has not received any news about General Du Quecao.

This made his heart full of frustration, and every failure hit his heart like a heavy hammer.

Huo Jixing saw through Tailong's thoughts and patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry too much, the empire is also trying its best to find traces of General Du Kecao."

Caterina also made a similar request during the chat last night, hoping that Huo Ji Star can help keep an eye out for news about General Du Cacault.

Huo Jixing agreed at that time.

After all, he is his future father-in-law, so he will definitely take notice.

Huo Jixing knew more information, mostly from Swain.

Swain has been looking for relevant clues since the disappearance of General Du Couture.

But unfortunately, nothing has been gained so far.

General Du Kecao seemed to disappear out of thin air without any warning.

Even if Swain used the power of the devil, he could not find any traces.
