War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens
chapter-355

Zhang Shou Yong didn’t have to say what happened after that as Duan Ling Tian was able to roughly guess what happened.

It was nothing but that Chen Xuan Chi didn’t give up.

Then, coupled with Wang Qiong’s own lack of confidence, it caused Chen Xuan Chi to feel that there was an opportunity to take advantage of.

So, Zhang Shou Yong and his wife had always been at a standstill with her.

Zhang Shou Yong spoke in an unrestrained manner. "This time, the feelings of you and sister-in-law, not leaving each other even in death, had infected Qiong… Qiong seemed as if she’d come around in an instant. She didn’t feel she didn’t deserve me anymore, and her past lack of confidence didn’t exist anymore. To the extent that she even took the initiate to suggest wanting to leave the Ancient City of Everlast with me and travel around."

"It was practically impossible for something like this to occur in the past." As he spoke up to here, Zhang Shou Yong had an excited expression.

"Congratulations Big Brother Zhang." Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled as he congratulated Zhang Shou Yong.

Zhang Shou Yong continued. "Earlier, Xuan Chi realized that Qiong had renewed her confidence, and she knew that she didn’t have a chance anymore… So, she came around and will be leaving within the next few days. This time, you and sister-in-law have really done me a great service. Otherwise, if Xuan Chi was really allowed to continue on like this for a few more years, I don’t know how guilty I would feel."

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

One hour later.

Duan Ling Tian, Li Fei, and Xiong Quan left the Ancient City of Everlast again.

But there were another two people beside them.

It was precisely the husband and wife pair, Zhang Shou Yong and Wang Qiong.

Duan Ling Tian gave away his Ferghana Horse to Zhang Shou Yong and Wang Qiong, and he sat on the Ferghana Horse with Li Fei.

Duan Ling Tian hugged Li Fei as he spurred the horse forward.

Currently, Zhang Shou Yong had changed into clean clothes and he didn’t possess the slovenly appearance from before. Moreover, the stubble on his face was already shaved, making him look elegant and unrestrained.

However, a wine gourd still hung on his waist.

This wine gourd was like his treasure that never left his side.

"Big Brother Zhang, why does the wine in this gourd seem as if it can’t be finished?" Half a month later, Duan Ling Tian was finally unable to refrain from asking.

During this half month, he could be sure that Zhang Shou Yong hadn’t replenished the wine in the wine gourd. His wine gourd was like a bottomless pit that contained wine that couldn’t be drunk to the bottom.

Zhang Shou Yong was stunned when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s question, then he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Brother Ling Tian, the wine gourd of your Big Brother Zhang isn’t any ordinary gourd… This is a grade five spirit weapon, and it’s able to contain 10,000 pounds of wine." Wang Qiong lightly smiled as she explained to Duan Ling Tian.

Grade five spirit weapon?

Wang Qiong spoke casually, but when it entered Duan Ling Tian’s ears, it was instead like a thunderclap.

"Grade five spirit weapon?!" Li Fei who sat before Duan Ling Tian and lay on his chest couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, then her beautiful eyes flickered with a gleam of disbelief as she gazed at the wine gourd in Zhang Shou Yong’s hands.

Xiong Quan who spurred his horse in the lead was slightly moved as well and was shocked.

"I’ve really misjudged it." Duan Ling Tian sighed with emotion, now, when his Spiritual Force extended out, he was able to noticed that the wine gourd in Zhang Shou Yong’s hand was indeed a grade five spirit weapon.

Grade five spirit weapon!

Duan Ling Tian’s mood surged.

According to his knowledge, even throughout the entire Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, this grade five spirit weapons was still an existence like phoenix feathers and qilin horns.

The Seven Star Sword Sect he’d joined was one of the top sects in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.

However, a formidable sect like this seemed to only have one grade five spirit weapon, a grade five spirit sword. Supposedly, this grade five spirit sword was in the Sect Leader’s control.

That grade five spirit sword was the Seven Star Sword Sect’s Sect Leader’s sword for generations and generations.

"Besides being able to store wine, this wine gourd is probably an extremely formidable offensive spirit weapon as well…" Duan Ling Tian was able to notice the difference in this wine gourd, unlike the Spatial Ring which was a spirit weapon purely used for storage, the wine gourd still carried along traces of killing intent.

This was the killing intent that only an offensive spirit weapon would possess.

"Grade five spirit weapon… There are extremely few within the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. Even if it’s the Empire that surpassed the Imperial Kingdom, there probably wouldn’t be many as well. Could it be that Big Brother Zhang is from the Darkstone Empire?" Duan Ling Tian secretly guessed in his heart.

Along the way, he’d tried to ask Zhang Shou Yong about his background, but Zhang Shou Yong would only laugh it off, then say they he wasn’t related to the past any longer and didn’t want to mention it.

Duan Ling Tian could feel the aloofness and resoluteness in Zhang Shou Yong’s tone.

It looked like the clan of this Big Brother Zhang of his had hurt Zhang Shou Yong greatly.

Zhang Shou Yong wasn’t willing to say anything so Duan Ling Tian naturally didn’t ask anymore. This also caused the background of Zhang Shou Yong and Wang Qiong to become a riddle in his eyes.

"Big Brother Zhang, sister-in-law, do you two have any plans?" Duan Ling Tian asked.

"We don’t have any specific plans for now. But, we should be going to take a spin around the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom… So we’ll send you and sister-in-law back to the Seven Star Sword Sect before we make any plans." Zhang Shou Yong lightly smiled.

A trace of warmth flowed within Duan Ling Tian’s heart.

He naturally knew Zhang Shou Yong’s intentions, it was undoubtedly wanting to escort him and Li Fei back to the Seven Star Sword Sect.

After all, now, Xiong Quan’s cultivation was different from before.

Even if it was a first level Void Prying Stage martial artist, so long as the person used a spirit weapon, then Xiong Quan wouldn’t be a match.

Although Xiong Quan was able to execute the Advanced Sword Force that’s comparable to the strength of 2,000 ancient mammoths, the strength bestowed by the Advanced Sword Force was unable to be amplified by a spirit weapon.

A spirit weapon was only able to amplify the strength of the body and Origin Energy…

Currently, Xiong Quan had lost all his Origin Energy, and only a ninth level Body Tempering Stage cultivation remained in him.

When the strength of his body exploded out completely, it would only be comparable to the strength of one ancient mammoth…

Even if he did utilize a grade seven spirit sword and obtained the amplification from it, Xiong Quan’s strength wouldn’t even reach the strength of two ancient mammoths!

"Xiong Quan…" Duan Ling Tian sighed then looked at Xiong Quan who rode his horse in the front and asked. "Xiong Quan, what plans do you have?"

Xiong Quan took a deep breath when he heard this, then said slowly, "Young Master, with my current strength, I can’t help you with anything… I want to return to my hometown."

Xiong Quan’s tone carried slight bitterness within.

"Then we’ll send you back to your hometown." Duan Ling Tian nodded, he respected Xiong Quan’s choice.

He’d already decided in his heart that he would surely help Xiong Quan restore his Dantian in the future!

Restore a Dantian…

If anyone knew of Duan Ling Tian’s current thoughts, they would surely insult Duan Ling Tian as a madman and think Duan Ling Tian was indulging in the wildest of fantasies.

After all, once the Dantian was damaged, even if one consumed the best healing medicine in the entire Cloud Continent, the grade one Life Recovery Pill, it would still be powerless to save the person’s Dantian…

This was a fact that was publically acknowledged within Cloud Continent.

Once the Dantian was crippled, one’s life was over.

This was an iron law.

However, as the person who’d merged with the memories of Rebirth Martial Emperor, Duan Ling Tian wouldn’t care about these so-called iron laws.

According to the memories of Rebirth Martial Emperor, there were two ways that could restore a crippled Dantian…

The first, find a legendary medicinal herb called the Immortal Spirit Herb.

The Immortal Spirit Herb only existed in legends, and even the Rebirth Martial Emperor had only heard of it, but not seen it.

Allegedly, the Immortal Spirit Herb was able to cause a cripple to regrow his limbs.

Its medicinal strength could be called heaven defying!

The second, was to become a Quasi Royal Grade Alchemist, and refine a Quasi Royal Grade Resurrection Pill.

The Quasi Royal Grade Resurrection Pill was a healing medicine that surpassed the grade one Life Recovery Pill.

Within the Cloud Continent, people only knew that the best healing medicine was the grade one Life Recovery Pill.

They didn’t know that since long ago, the Rebirth Martial Emperor had refined the Quasi Royal Grade Resurrection Pill and the Royal Grade Resurrection Pill surpassed the grade one Life Recovery Pill.

No matter how serious the injury was, so long as the heart hadn’t stopped beating, then they could be saved by consuming the Quasi Royal Grade Resurrection Pill.

As for the Royal Grade Resurrection Pill? It was even more exaggerated.

Even if the heart had stopped beating, so long as it hadn’t stopped for more than an hour, then the person could be save by consuming a Royal Grade Resurrection Pill.

"That Immortal Spirit Herb is too impractical… Looks like I have to wait until I arrive at the ‘Foreign Lands’ and obtain the great treasure that the Rebirth Martial Emperor left for his third lifetime to be able to help Xiong Quan restore his Dantian." Duan Ling Tian thought in his heart.

Within the pile of treasures that the Rebirth Martial Emperor had prepared for his third lifetime, the Quasi Royal Grade Resurrection Pill and Royal Grade Resurrection Pill were amongst them…

After spending an entire month of galloping the whole way, Duan Ling Tian’s group had finally arrived at Xiong Quan’s hometown.

Xiong Quan’s hometown was situated within a group of mountains, and it was considered a remote village.

"Xiong Quan, you grew up here?" Duan Ling Tian looked at the remote village and couldn’t help but exclaim in a low voice.

It was difficult for him to image how Xiong Quan, the formed guardian elder of the Boundless Sect, had such an ordinary and common birth…

"Yes." Xiong Quan nodded, and he was slightly excited as he looked at the faraway village.

Duan Ling Tian’s group had only just entered the village when they were noticed.

"It’s Uncle Xiong Quan." In next to no time, a 12 or 13 year old youth with sharp eyes had recognized Xiong Quan and he exclaimed in shock before dashing over. "Uncle Xiong Quan! Uncle Xiong Quan!"

"You are?" Xiong Quan was stunned as he gazed at the youth that leaped into his embrace.

"Uncle Xiong Quan, you don’t recognize me? I’m Er Hu!" The youth raised his head and looked at Xiong Quan with an excited expression.

"You’re Er Hu?" Xiong Quan was stunned then couldn’t help but laugh as he rubbed the youth’s little head. "Er Hu, we’ve only not seen each other for a few years and you’ve already grown so big…"

The youth laughed slyly. "Uncle Xiong Quan, I was only seven when you left the last time."

"Is everyone in the village still well?" Xiong Quan asked.

The youth nodded hastily. "Everyone is fine, just that we usually slightly miss Uncle Xiong Quan… Hmph! I’m going to become an outstanding martial artist like Uncle Xiong Quan in the future, then enter the Boundless Sect and become a great guardian like Uncle Xiong Quan!"

The youth’s naïve appearance caused Duan Ling Tian, Li Fei, Zhang Shou Yong, and Wang Qiong to be unable to refrain from smiling.

"Then you have to work hard, Er Hu." Xiong Quan smiled as he encouraged, yet a trace of misery flashed deep within his eyes.

"Xiong Quan!"

"Uncle Xiong Quan!"

…

Before long, a crowd of people poured out of the village and they were incredibly fervent.

Duan Ling Tian’s thought inwardly when he saw this scene. "Looks like after Xiong Quan became the guardian elder of the Boundless Sect, he didn’t forget his own hometown… These villagers all respect him from the bottom of their hearts."
