Ye Tian grew frustrated after asking for a long ti without a reply from the War Dragon Remnant Soul. 'That old geezer always knows how to keep in suspense, and there's absolutely nothing I can do about him.'
Ye Feifei saw the slightly dejected look on Ye Tian's face and asked, "Brother Tian, what's wrong? Is sothing on your mind? Or did the legend of Bibo Lake move you?"
"A little bit," Ye Tian said. "This Fairy Bibo must have been heartbroken by soone she loved, turning her into Bibo Lake. I just wonder who on earth could break the heart of such an ancient powerhouse?" Of course, he wasn't about to admit that his frustration was actually caused by the War Dragon Remnant Soul inside him.
"Heh, you have quite the imagination to co up with sothing so absurd. Bibo Lake has been here for at least hundreds of millions of years! Why are you dwelling on things like that?" Ye Feifei said softly with a small smile.
Ye Tian nodded without speaking, still waiting for the War Dragon Remnant Soul's answer.
"There is only one secret to Bibo Lake. Within this lake are three Dragon Scales. They contain an imnse amount of Dragon Spiritual Power. While it can't compare to the power of the Dragon Pearl, it can be absorbed directly. If you were to obtain them, the boost to your strength would be incredible." Just then, the voice of the War Dragon Remnant Soul sounded in Ye Tian's mind again.
'Senior, are you saying I should get these three Dragon Scales? But Bibo Lake is so vast, how could I possibly find them!' Ye Tian, overjoyed, imdiately asked in his mind.
"Obtaining the Dragon Scales is not so simple. Bibo's power back in her day was formidable. There is a powerful Restriction at the bottom of Bibo Lake that you have no hope of breaking with your current strength. Furthermore, the water pressure at the bottom of the lake is also imnse; your physical body would not be able to withstand it," the War Dragon Remnant Soul said.
Ye Tian knew it was telling the truth. 'Obtaining these Ancient Treasures really does require imnse strength. Even if I got them, I definitely wouldn't be able to absorb the energy. Such powerful energy would probably make my body explode the mont I started absorbing it.'
"You just need to rember that when you are powerful enough, you can co to Bibo Lake and retrieve the three Dragon Scales. Back in the day, this Fairy Bibo was known as one of the three greatest beauties in the world. Perhaps you might even see an image she left behind and witness for yourself what a truly ethereal, otherworldly fairy looks like," said the War Dragon Remnant Soul.
'The three great beauties? Who are the other two? Don't tell you don't know. I haven't spoken with you in a long ti; you can't just disappear on again,' Ye Tian imdiately asked.
"The Phoenix Saintess and Fairy Bibo are the world-renowned beauties. As for the other one, there's no need for you to know. In any case, that one was no good," the War Dragon Remnant Soul said.
Hearing the War Dragon Remnant Soul say this, Ye Tian seed to understand sothing. 'That one must have been its forr lover, who hurt it for so reason. That's why, even after so many years, it still holds a grudge.'
At this thought, an image of the scene from the cave flashed through Ye Tian's mind. 'That woman in red must be the Phoenix Saintess. Although I couldn't see her face clearly, her aura was truly rare in this world, an almost overwhelming presence.'
'And that other woman, the Demon Dragon, also had an unparalleled aura. Her beauty, without a doubt, was also second to none. It's highly likely that the other woman is the Demon Dragon from back then.' However, Ye Tian didn't dare say this out loud, for fear of angering the War Dragon Remnant Soul.
"Kid, you'd best not let your imagination run wild, or you'll regret it. I told you about the Dragon Scales in the hope that you can obtain them one day. That's how your strength can see a massive improvent. The Dragon Pearl's energy in your body can at most help you break through to the Seven Veins, so you need to be clear about that," said the War Dragon Remnant Soul.
'Thank you, Senior. I understand. By the way, why was Lisha City an Ancient Battlefield back then? What's the story behind that?' Ye Tian couldn't help but ask.
"You will understand that in the future. Now is not the ti for you to know. I am a little tired. Don't disturb !" said the War Dragon Remnant Soul.
Ye Tian knew the old geezer was definitely just saying that to dodge the question. 'But who knows when "in the future" will be.'
After composing himself, Ye Tian opened his eyes. He saw Ye Feifei staring intently at him. "Brother Tian, your skill in ditation is really amazing! It's been two days already. I didn't dare disturb you!"
"Two days? Are you sure?" Ye Tian was shocked. 'I only rember exchanging a few words with the War Dragon Remnant Soul. This is just too bizarre.'
"Of course I wouldn't lie to you. We'll be at Linyuan Academy soon. It's a good thing you woke up, otherwise I wouldn't have known whether I should wake you or not!" said Ye Feifei.
"Yeah, I get it! I'm not sure why I suddenly entered ditation, but the gains weren't that great. Sorry for making you worry on the way here!" Ye Tian said, feeling a little bad.
"Brother Tian, Linyuan Academy is right in Lin Yuan City. I've heard that Lin Yuan City is a Level 1 City Wall and it's enormous. Do you want to go check it out?" Ye Feifei asked.
"Of course we can. Our drinks the other day were ruined. I'm sure no one would dare to cause trouble so casually in a big city like this!" Ye Tian grew angry just thinking about that day. 'If sothing like that happens again, I might really have to stop showing up at inns and restaurants so casually.'
The incident with Qin Xiaowan was still vivid in his mory. It was precisely because of that event that the Qin and Liu Families were successively wiped out by the Ye Family.
The carriage wasn't moving very fast. After all, they were getting closer and closer to Lin Yuan City, and the number of pedestrians and vehicles on the official road was increasing. So people were even riding directly on Demon Beasts, which was quite a sight.
Using Demon Beasts for transportation was a normal sight in a Level 1 City Wall. However, it was still a step down compared to the Imperial City. Of course, there were also people who used Flying Bird Demon Beasts as mounts, but only mbers of truly great families could afford such a luxury.
After about two more hours, the carriage stopped. "Miss, Young Master, Lin Yuan City is just ahead. This is as far as I can take you. I hope you achieve great results at Linyuan Academy and co back to make the Ye Family even stronger."
After Ye Tian and Ye Feifei got out of the carriage, Ye Feifei took out several Spirit Stones and gave them to the old man. "Thank you for your hard work on the road. Don't worry, Brother Tian and I will definitely make a na for ourselves. Please be careful on your way back!"
The old man initially wanted to refuse Ye Feifei's Spirit Stones, but after seeing the firm look in her eyes, he had no choice but to accept them. His old eyes welled up with tears, a clear sign of how moved he was.
He then drove the carriage away. Ye Tian and Ye Feifei slowly walked forward. In the distance, they could see the towering city walls, which gave off a magnificent and imposing aura.
"Feifei, we've finally made it to Lin Yuan City! We'll definitely beco the most outstanding students. Let's go check out this Level 1 City Wall!" Ye Tian said excitedly.
"Okay! I'd love to see how a city of this level differs from our Lisha City," Ye Feifei said with a smile. The two then followed the crowd on the official road, heading toward Lin Yuan City…
