"This old man is really shady!"
Zhang nglong looked at the tiny bottle with only 10 drops of Cold Marrow Jade Dew left.
Initially, they had agreed to split it fifty-fifty, but just now, Qi Congyun claid that his life-saving effort entitled him to an extra 10 drops, calling it a 'protection fee'.
"Hmph! You're still a rookie compared to !" Zhang nglong took out the bottle filled with 87 drops of Cold Marrow Jade Dew, "Luckily, I kept a secret stash, otherwise you'd have taken all the benefits!"
…
"What the heck happened?" When Zhang nglong returned to the capital of the Hong Yun Empire, he saw a chaotic scene at the city walls — almost a stretch of dozens of kiloters broken into fragnts, even these fragnts were covered in a thick layer of frost.
On the ground, large feathers remained, and aside from that, there was blue blood emitting cold air.
The people on the city wall were busy transporting the wounded, appearing exceptionally busy.
"Brother, what happened here? It wasn't like this when I left," Zhang nglong asked a passerby.
"Lucky you returned now," the man said with lingering fear, "You don't know, not long ago, this place was attacked by a Dao Realm Warcraft, it clearly intended to destroy the entire Capital City. If there hadn't been an Elder from a superpower here, it would have been catastrophic."
"Is this white-feathered bird that vicious?" Zhang nglong muttered to himself.
Having its treasure stolen and its child killed, the Ice Dragon Clear Sky Sparrow couldn't find them and so vented its anger on the humans of the Hong Yun Empire, which led it to attack this place in a mad rage.
"That Warcraft truly was formidable, that one Elder alone couldn't hold it back, then three Dao Realm masters from the Hong Yun Empire joined in, along with seven Elders from superpowers assisting, only then was the Warcraft repelled," the passerby explained, "If it weren't for this year's assessnt happening here, the capital could have been in danger."
"But you should know, today was a real eye-opener, the Dao Realm battle, you don't see that happen but once in a hundred years, brother you missed it, what a loss!"
"That's a real sha," Zhang nglong replied with a smile. Not only did he see the Dao Realm masters and Warcraft fighting earlier, but he also roasted the Warcraft's chick to eat. Speaking of which, he had to admit the taste was indeed savory.
"However, this old-tir is truly formidable," Zhang nglong thought of Qi Congyun, who could almost fight on par with Warcraft, seven Elders of superpowers plus three Dao Realm masters from the Hong Yun Empire together barely repelled the white-feathered bird, and that on human territory.
Indeed in comparison, Qi Congyun is much stronger than the other Elders, and the Sunset Sect isn't as inferior as he thought.
"Really bizarre," Zhang nglong couldn't help but feel curious, "Clearly the Sunset Sect's solo combat power is strong, yet it's ranked last among the 18 sects?"
With this question, Zhang nglong returned to his hotel, now he needed to quickly absorb the gains from this ti!
He and Qi Congyun had already eaten most of the chick, the Warcraft's blood and flesh is imnsely nourishing for Warcraft, if lower level Warcrafts consu higher-level Warcraft corpses with good luck, they can directly rank up, even inherit so of their diluted bloodline.
Even though now Gu Xiao's body remains human, this kind of bloodline can still play a role, Zhang nglong clearly felt a warm flow surging in his body, slowly advancing to the Fourth Grade Spiritual Body.
Zhang nglong took out the Cold Marrow Jade Dew, making the room instantly turn cold; Zhang nglong even had to wrap it with Strange Fire, otherwise the surrounding area within a few dozen kiloters might be affected by the dew's low temperature.
"Gou Dan, how do I use this thing?" Zhang nglong asked.
[Dissolve it in water, soak directly!] Gou Dan replied.
[Given the dean's current physical strength, one drop at a ti is enough, any more and the body won't withstand it, rember not to use Strange Fire!]
"Got it!" Zhang nglong went to the bathroom, dropped one drop of Cold Marrow Jade Dew into the water; before it even contacted the water, the pool froze solid, but the next mont, the drop perated through the ice, acting like a catalyst, causing the insanely cold ice block to start lting.
Of course, the diluted water was still extrely cold.
"Gou Dan, if you want my life just say it, no need to beat around the bush." Zhang nglong grumbled as he stepped into the pool.
In an instant, Zhang nglong felt his body almost go numb.
Though Zhang nglong was attached to Gu Xiao's body, their bodies experienced things synchronously. If Zhang nglong detached from Gu Xiao's body, he wouldn't endure the cold, but equally, his own body wouldn't undergo any enhancent, aning all the good stuff would go to Gu Xiao.
Luckily, under such low temperature, the pain nerves nearly numbed, Zhang nglong protected the Soul with Strange Fire, the Cold Marrow Jade Dew didn't harm his body but slowly perated inside starting to strengthen his physique.
The chick's blood and flesh alone almost pushed Gu Xiao's body to breakthrough to the Fourth Grade Spiritual Body, under the Cold Marrow Jade Dew's catalysis, the transformation completed in just a few minutes.
"Looks like it's going to take all night to absorb,"
"Gou Dan, play Jay Chou's songs, I'm taking a nap!" After experiencing so much today, Zhang nglong felt so ntal fatigue, he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
…
Early in the morning, the hotel's Heavenly Prides were getting ready to head out like usual, so planned to learn about superpower information, others sought ways to improve their ranking among the Heavenly Prides, and so wished to use the remaining precious ti to boost their strength.
With the influx of nurous Heavenly Prides, the trading market these days also beca exceedingly lively, various elixirs, weapons, cultivation techniques were circulating, what truly were good things, though, was unknown.
"Really strange, why can't I reach Brother Gu?" Long Sen planned on inviting Zhang nglong to check out the trading market today, but since last night, he couldn't contact Zhang nglong, despite his room showing occupancy, making him very curious.
He was about to head out and stroll himself, suddenly an imnse pressure descended from above, pinning Long Sen to the ground unable to move.
Not just him, others residing in the hotel experienced the sa, this sudden pressure caught almost everyone off guard.
"What's happening?" Soone painfully gritted through this, the uneventful morning suddenly brought such an inexplicable situation, "This aura is at least Peak Divine Cultivator level, has soone in the hotel offended soone of this caliber?"
"Who the fuck caused us all this discomfort!"
Everyone fell into confusion and frustration, only two people in the hotel suddenly revealed excited expressions.
Hong Yang and Mu Xiang had been locked in the hotel bathroom by Zhang nglong all night. Being pampered, they'd never suffered such treatnt.
"Second Grandpa is here to save us!"
"It's my grandpa! My grandpa also ca!"
Mu Xiang had thought his family might not even show up, being a bastard, but unexpectedly, his grandpa appeared.
Two Dao Realm masters, two among the three Dao Realm masters in the entire Hong Yun Empire.
"Hahaha, Gu Tianle, you're dood, and you're not releasing us yet?"
"Our grandpas are here, your show-off ti is over!"
…
Soaking in the water, Zhang nglong awoke at this mont too, the entire room was shielded by the Cold Marrow Jade Dew's energy, not affected by the two Dao Realm masters' aura, but Mu Xiang and Hong Yang's shouting woke him from his slumber.
Zhang nglong's face darkened; anyone who had crossed him knew his morning temper was in its advanced stage!
His face dropped, "Who the hell allowed you guys to speak loudly?"
