Chu Shaoqing nodded: "Indeed, so over the years, we in Lihuo City have developed an architectural style that is unique to us. You see -"
Chu Shaoqing pointed to the buildings on both sides and said to Su Luo, "We live in houses made of reinforced concrete and stone. These houses are good; they're strong and sturdy, they also dissipate heat, and they can be built very high. We're heading towards the city's core area now. By the way, have you noticed a pattern?"
Su Luo nodded: "The further you get towards the core area, the taller the buildings become."
Chu Shaoqing nodded: "Yes! The place we are going to now is Jinwu Tower. Do you know Jinwu Hall? Forget it, you were born in the Central Empire, how would you know about Jinwu Hall?"
Su Luo coughed twice. If she was asked this question before Butler Jiang appeared, she really wouldn't know the answer, but now... Jinwu Hall was her home. What was there for Su Luo not to understand?
Su Luo nodded: "Of course I have heard of it. There are seven stone lions in the Jinwu Tower in Lihuo City."
Butler Jiang had previously informed Su Luo that there were stone lions placed at the entrance of each branch of the Jinwu Hall.
The Qinglong Empire is represented by six stone lions, so the leader of the Jinyan branch of the Qinglong Empire is the Six Ding Elders.
The current Lihuo City is one level higher than the Qinglong Empire, so there are seven stone lions at the gate. In other words, the branch master in charge of Lihuo City is Elder Qiding.
And Su Luo now holds the identity of the Seven Ding Elders.
Chu Shaoqing didn't know Su Luo's identity, so he continued to explain to her, "In our Lihuo City, there are a few places you must know. If you haven't been there, you'd be embarrassed to say you've been to Lihuo City!"
Su Luo: "Oh?"
Jin Yan had given her a book about Lihuo City before, and she had read it at that time, but there was still a big difference between books and reality. At least Su Luo didn't know that the architectural style of Lihuo City was so similar to that of modern metropolises on Earth.
Chu Shaoqing is proud to be a member of Lihuo City.
He proudly said, "In our Lihuo City, the tallest building is the Nation Father Tower. Have you heard of the Nation Father Tower?"
Su Luo: "Lava City Lord?"
Chu Shaoqing shook his head: "The Lord of Lava City is the Lord of the City, but the founder of our Lihuo City is indeed our supreme Lord God Suzaku! We call him the Father of the Nation."
"Did you know? Every year on the birthday of our founding father, the local residents of Lihuo City will receive red envelopes. Each red envelope is worth 10,000 Lihuo coins."
Chu Shaoqing was very proud of being a native of Lihuo City. "The Nation Father Tower, soaring into the sky, is the tallest building on the entire continent...including your Central Empire. It is the tallest building on the entire continent, bar none!"
Su Luo: "Really?"
Chu Shaoqing: "Yes, it is said that when the Suzaku God descends to the human world, he will appear on this Nation Father Tower. At that time, those of us who possess his bloodline will bathe in his divine light and our strength will automatically increase. This is called riding on the divine light."
Su Luo: "Can my strength continue to increase?"
Chu Shaoqing said proudly, "Of course it should be. After all, we are the people of the Lord God Suzaku! In two months, the Lord God will descend. Then you will see miracles."
In two months... Su Luo thought to herself, in two months, won't the Lava City Lord be weak?
Is there any connection between his weak day and the birthday of Lord Suzaku?
