Chapter 588
But he had definitely offended some terrifying faction.
As for who.
He actually already had a guess in his heart.
At the same time, he now had another thought about why the Zong Sect had chosen him as Shao Sect.
"I'm heading back to the Southern Border tomorrow, so I probably won't be able to come again anytime soon."
The Grand Elder said.
"In such a hurry?"
Meng Zhangqing's brow lifted slightly.
"Mm, I was supposed to have left long ago. Mainly, I waited to see you break through successfully before I could rest easy."
The Grand Elder nodded, then took out a jade slip glowing with light from his bosom. "This is the fourth scroll of the Heavenly King Art. Before leaving, Xi Yingqing gave it to me, saying that if you mastered it, I should give you this scroll."
"I thought it impossible you'd master it before the Life and Death Realm, who would have thought..."
Speaking to here, even the Grand Elder felt it was absurd.
"The fourth scroll, huh."
Meng Zhangqing's eyes lit up.
Although he could obtain it directly from the Zhang Sect, after all there was no open-and-aboveboard source.
If he were to use it later on.
It would be hard to explain.
But now there were no worries left.
He took the inheritance jade slip, pressed it to his brow, and the related content immediately surged forth one by one in his sea of consciousness, transforming into golden chapters.
"And then there are these things."
Seeing the inheritance jade slip vanish after being absorbed, the Grand Elder set his mind at ease—this was the Zong Sect's supreme art, an incomparably precious existence!
Even Holy Lands would... be tempted!
Saying so.
He took out four tokens.
Of entirely different styles.
The names inscribed on them were also completely different.
They were respectively the Black and White Academy, the Questioning Heaven Hall, the Duan Family of Divine Edge Sea, and the Listening Rain Tower.
"These are?"
Meng Zhangqing was puzzled.
"All are factions you can trust in the Central Province. If you encounter any difficulties, you may seek their help."
"However, among these four families, there's one you need to pay a little attention to."
"The Duan Family of Divine Edge Sea."
"Why?"
"That Chixiao sword of yours—our ancestor snatched it from them, and then nearly two hundred years ago, Xi Yingqing went and snatched another one."
"..."
Meng Zhangqing was speechless.
How can this still be called worth trusting?
Chapter 265: Bloodline Purification Card, Awaiting the Ancient Phoenix Bloodline! (3/4, seeking subscriptions!)
"The specifics are hard to elaborate on. In any case, it was within the Duan Family's rules, fair and square, so they have nothing to say."
"Also, although the Duan Family people have rather poor tempers, their character is still decent."
"Consider it not fighting means not making acquaintances."
"Afterwards, Xi Yingqing helped them with a big favor, so you could say they owe us one."
The Grand Elder said.
"If that's the case, then what's there to watch out for?"
Meng Zhangqing was baffled.
"Actually it's nothing major—it's just that being robbed of two famous-edge weapons, the Duan Family's impression of us is rather poor. If you go seeking help, you might get cold looks and verbal abuse and the like."
"So once you've used up the favor, leave quickly."
"Otherwise, with no favor holding them back, you'll surely get beaten up by a mob."
"..."
Meng Zhangqing held his forehead.
Just imagine—if he himself had been robbed of two famous-edge weapons in a row, he'd probably have a terrible impression of the Duitaixuan Sect too.
Then.
The Grand Elder introduced what these four factions did.
Then informed him of the whereabouts of Mo Xiaoyu and the others.
So Meng Zhangqing had a rough idea.
"Lastly, since you've chosen to stay in the Central Province, then go out and make a name for yourself!"
"A young man should indeed, on a stage like the Central Province, command the winds, constantly defeat the strong, and thereby ascend to the pinnacle of the martial Dao."
"Same as always—no need to worry, the Zong Sect is right behind you."
The Grand Elder slowly rose, smiling as he said, "That fellow Xi Yingqing—if he were to stake his life, even the sky above our heads, he could poke a hole through it."
His words carried a hidden meaning.
GLOSSARY: 【Meng Zhangqing, Mo Xiaoyu, Xi Yingqing, Xuan Sect, Zong Sect, Keshizong Sect, Zhang Sect, Duiyuzong Sect, Duitaixuan Sect, Congzhang Sect, Shao Sect, Dangshao Sect, Elder, Life and Death Realm, Black and White Academy, Questioning Heaven Hall, Duan Family of Divine Edge Sea, Listening Rain Tower, Heavenly King Art, Chixiao, Central Province, Southern Border, Holy Land, Sea of Consciousness, Bloodline Purification Card, Ancient Phoenix Bloodline】
"Good."
Meng Zhangqing smiled slightly, understanding the meaning.
"Besides, I know your heart is full of questions. If you truly wish to know, go to Listening Rain Pavilion."
"There lies everything you wish to understand."
The Grand Elder's expression became unusually serious. "However, once you know, you will also face a choice."
"Of course, no matter how you choose, we will support you."
A very familiar line of words.
He remembered Senior Sister Hua had said it too.
Once the truth is known, one must face a choice.
Having finished speaking,
the Grand Elder departed.
"A choice, huh."
Meng Zhangqing's gaze shifted slightly.
He could actually guess what kind of choice it was.
Strictly speaking,
he did not have many choices.
Some things are destined from birth; there is no escaping them.
"Take it slow. After all, striving to cultivate can never be wrong."
Meng Zhangqing withdrew his thoughts.
He would not waste extra mental energy on internal conflict.
In his view, as long as his strength was sufficient, even facing a violent storm, he could stand immovable, or even raise a hand to suppress it!
Rising slowly,
Meng Zhangqing walked outward.
Next, he prepared to open that Spirit Beast Bag.
A Level Six Mutated Beast was worthy of cultivation.
If using the Bloodline Purification Card could raise it significantly, its value would be even higher.
Although Meng Zhangqing now possessed a bloodline too.
But it was his own bloodline.
It belonged to the Progenitor.
The ancestor who would one day create a family.
