The Glory of Noxus

Noxcaria Arena.

As time passed, more and more Noxians poured in, filling up the huge arena.

From a distance, the seats were almost full.

The noise of the crowd rose and fell like waves, telling that the performance of the Reckoners had become the favorite hobby of Noxians.

In this lively atmosphere, Huo Jixing took Heini into the inner passage of the arena.

The passage was slightly narrow, and the Noxian Legion soldiers they met along the way gave way after seeing the tokens in their hands, without any obstruction.

Huo Jixing looked around, and the familiar environment and passage made him feel nostalgic.

This was once his stage, and he left an indelible mark in this arena.

Heini followed behind Huo Jixing, looking a little nervous, and his fingers kept rubbing his armor.

Because many Noxian legion soldiers and fierce-looking reckoners passing by would occasionally cast their concerned eyes on them.

Many people saw Huo Jixing's appearance, as if they remembered something, and surprise and horror appeared on their faces.

The walls on both sides of the passage were carved with complex patterns. They were witnesses of Noxian history and the unique symbol of this arena.

Huo Jixing and Heini came to the end of the passage, where a huge iron-clad wooden door stood, blending into the surrounding walls.

The soldiers of the Trifari Legion guarding the door saluted Huo Jixing immediately when they saw him.

Huo Jixing waved his hand, pushed open the iron-clad wooden door, walked in, and saw Draven with his feet on the table and a leisurely look.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed, Draven looked a little unhappy.

In the Noxcaria Arena, no one dared to violate his rules, especially when he was resting, he hated people coming to disturb him the most.

But after Draven saw the person coming, the displeasure on his face disappeared and turned into a smile.

"Long time no see, Xing!"

Dreven quickly stood up, his tall body covered with dark green armor, and his shoulders were plush shoulder pads.

Huo Jixing looked at Draven, laughed softly, and hugged Draven.

"I heard that you have been back for a long time, why did you come to the arena to see me?" Draven stroked the black beard at the corner of his mouth and joked.

"Some things delayed me." Huo Jixing replied.

"I just finished dealing with it and came to find you."

"You guy." Draven shook his head gently, feeling helpless about Huo Jixing's handling.

Boom!

Just as the two were chatting, there was a deafening roar.

Draven walked to the glazed floor-to-ceiling window in the room and overlooked the blood-stained yellow sand arena below.

At this moment, the battle in the arena has entered a white-hot stage. Both sides are shirtless, as if fighting for life and death, and the red blood drips on the ground.

"How is it, do you miss the previous battles?"

Draven pointed to the Noxians who were cheering because of the fierce battle below, with a hint of meaning.

Since the end of the performance of the Ring of Fire, the name left by Huo Jixing has not been surpassed so far.

Even if the arena carefully composes the story for the liquidators and promotes it, it cannot reproduce the glory of the past.

Draven thought of many ways, but to no avail.

He himself has also left the arena, although the initial popularity is higher than Huo Jixing.

However, after frequent exits, it is impossible to save the gradually declining and returning to the normal popularity of the arena performance.

Huo Jixing shook his head gently, using his actions to show his thoughts.

"Performances in the arena are not suitable for me."

"Even if I agree to your participation, Lord Swain and General Darius will not agree."

Dreven paused, turned his head and stared at Huo Jixing beside him, looking at the young and calm face, and sighed inwardly.

Now Huo Jixing is indeed no longer a new Noxian who has just arrived in the capital.

"Tell me, what do you want to find me for?" Draven crossed his arms and said with a smile.

"I don't believe you came to me specifically."

Huo Jixing did not hesitate and directly stated his request.

"I want to purchase some rune items, but I am a new Noxian, and I am not as useful as your reputation as the Glory Executioner."

"Tsk tsk!"

Hearing the compliment in Huo Jixing's tone, Draven raised his eyebrows and was very pleased.

"No problem, I will help you keep an eye out."

"But what do you want so many rune items for? Isn't it enough to have Statik Electric Blade?"

Dreven's intelligence information is very well-informed.

After all, his status and position are there, and no one in the Noxus Empire dares to ignore it.

"Some uses are inconvenient to say." Huo Jixing concealed the purpose of the rune item.

Draven nodded gently, indicating that he understood.

Then the two chatted, occasionally commenting on the reckoners performing below.

Huo Jixing also knew some interesting things.

At the beginning, he proposed to create the character and story of the reckoners, and Draven fully implemented it.

But these rude guys, the stories they made up themselves, have no characteristics.

Draven had to find someone to tailor a story for them that suits his temperament.

Time passed, and night fell.

The brightly lit Noxcaria Arena gradually lost the hustle and bustle of the day, and the originally lively scene became quiet.

The bloody performance in the arena also came to an end with the arrival of night.

The audience left one after another, leaving an empty venue.

After a day of fierce fighting, the liquidators also rested or treated their wounds.

Before leaving, Huo Jixing casually told what happened outside the Knoxkaria Arena.

"I didn't expect you already have loyal fans to promote the arena for you."

He pointed to Heini who was following him and continued: "Do you have extra autographs? Give me one, this little guy likes you very much."

Draven blushed when he heard this, then patted his chest and signed a special autograph for Heini on the spot.

Since leaving the Knoxkaria Arena.

Huo Jixing's life has once again entered an orderly training state, working hard to improve himself.

Most of his time is either spent in meditation or in the training room.

Sometimes he would think of his technological life in his previous life.

But after comparison, he found that the pleasure of improving himself was more attractive.

In addition to training.

Huo Jixing also went to meet his former subordinates.

Devitt and his family have already moved into the Immortal Fortress, and now he is the centurion of the capital guards, which makes him more mature.

Korda's life is similar.

However, he chose to serve as a local garrison officer in a town outside the capital, and is about to start a family.

The two were very happy to see Huo Jixing, and they chatted for a long time and agreed to meet often in the future.

Time gradually slowed down.

A leisurely and peaceful life surrounded Huo Jixing.

Draven and the Du Kecao family would occasionally purchase rune items and send them over.

There is no news about Katarina and Talon.

Huo Jixing is not worried. With their strength, as long as they don't encounter legendary extraordinary people, they can still leave safely.

The dawn glow cut through the dark sky.

Heini pushed open the door and saw the swaying snowflakes in front of him, and a touch of excitement appeared on his face.

"Is it snowing?"

He immediately came to the street outside, looked around at the scattered snowflakes, stomped his feet, and stepped on the ground.

As if remembering something, Heini returned to the room, took out the sleepy Snow White Poro, and gently rocked him.

"Look, snowflakes!"

The Snow White Poro opened his hazy eyes, saw the falling snowflakes, quickly woke up, and shouted happily.

One person and one Poro, playing on the street.

Heini held the falling white snowflakes in his hands, and suddenly remembered the battle at the border of the North. His eyes turned back and fell on the room behind him.

"Master Huo Jixing said before that he would go into seclusion, but he has not come out for three days and does not eat food."

A trace of worry flashed in the corner of Heini's eyes. He stretched out his hand to scratch the horns of the Snow White Poro and spoke softly.

"Do you think there will be danger?"

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!"

The Snow White Poro cried, and his head shook like a rattle.

"Oh, you mean that the master is safe and there is no danger?" Heini seemed to understand what the Snow White Poro meant, and his expression was much more relaxed.

Then he put aside his worries and continued to play with the Snow White Poro.

In a quiet bedroom.

Huo Jixing crossed his legs and floated off the ground.

There was a red-gold glow around him, covering his bare upper body.

He could faintly see the Vermillion Bird surrounding him, and the air was filled with a majestic and luxurious atmosphere.

Clang!

As Huo Jixing opened his eyes, the sound of the Vermillion Bird rang out.

The surrounding Vermillion Bird spread its wings.

Then it swooped down towards Huo Jixing's body, turning into a lifelike mark, engraved on Huo Jixing's chest.

"Vermillion Bird Seal!"
