Chapter 178 - 178 The Unfilial Son of the Panlong Family!
178 The Unfilial Son of the Panlong Family!
“Greetings, City Lord.”
Arriving in front of Lin Wudao, Li Heishui and Li Qingcheng bowed.
“Alright, no need for formalities. The main reason why I summoned you here is to tell you that I will be making a trip to the Panlong Ancient City, and then the Taicang Ancestral Land in the Myriad Great Mountain Range. Li Heishui, are you going to follow me or stay in the Heishui Ancient City?”
What? Were they going to the Panlong Ancient City?
Hearing this, Li Heishui could not help but be stunned.
However, he didn’t hesitate much.
“I’d like to go outside with the City Lord to broaden my horizons…”
He rubbed his hands and laughed.
“Don’t be in a hurry to answer. Perhaps you’ll change your mind later.”
As he spoke, under Li Heishui’s puzzled expression, Lin Wudao flipped his hand and took out a piece of white paper. A picture of an ancient token was printed on it.
“City Lord, this is…”
Looking at the white paper handed to him and the mysterious pattern on it, Li Heishui had a puzzled expression. He couldn’t understand why Lin Wudao gave him this.
Lin Wudao smiled mysteriously.
“The picture on it is the ident.i.ty token of the True Martial Divine Palace’s Sword Sage, Marquis Ling Tian. It is also the token that Marquis Ling Tian gave to Dongfang Bubai at the end of the Path to Heaven. I heard that Brother Dongfang obtained the Sky-mending Divine Water for your sister. That’s a supreme divine item that can improve one’s apt.i.tude and make one’s body return to its innate state. With the help of the Sky-mending Divine Water, Li Qingcheng will definitely become a peerless talent in the future.”
“Since that’s the case, it’s a pity that if she stays in the True Dragon Academy. To give her a wider stage and a better cultivation environment, I specially copied the token of Sword Sage Marquis Ling Tian from Dongfang Bubai. With Dongfang Bubai’s recommendation, I believe Li Qingcheng will most certainly be able to enter the True Martial Divine Palace. At the very least, she will be a successive disciple. In this way, you will be free from worries and can work for me in peace,” Lin Wudao said calmly.
What was that? Li Qingcheng was to go to the True Martial Divine Palace to cultivate?
The surprise came too suddenly.
Hearing this, both Li Heishui and Li Qingcheng widened their eyes.
Thump!
When he regained his senses, Li Heishui hurriedly pulled Li Qingcheng and knelt heavily on the ground, kowtowing respectfully to Lin Wudao.
His face was filled with endless surprise and grat.i.tude.
“Thank you, City Lord. The City Lord is our great benefactor. Even dying ten thousand deaths will be hard to repay you!”
Thump, thump, thump!
Excited, Li Heishui kowtowed crazily.
Lin Wudao was really too good to him.
The True Martial Divine Palace was a top faction in the Great World of Divine Desolation that had been pa.s.sed down for more than 10,000 years. Whether it was in terms of power or foundation, it was far from what the True Dragon Academy could compare to.
If Li Qingcheng could cultivate in the True Martial Divine Palace, it would be a great blessing for her.
This great kindness made Li Heishui shed tears of grat.i.tude.
Similarly, Li Qingcheng was also overwhelmed with emotions. Until now, she was still immersed in the huge shock brought by Lin Wudao.
“Li Qingcheng, are you willing to go to the True Martial Divine Palace?”
“I…”
“Qingcheng, what are you still hesitating for? This is a great fortune that trillions of geniuses can’t even dream of! Hurry up and agree to it,” Li Heishui urged anxiously.
Hearing this, Li Qingcheng nodded.
“I’m willing. But City Lord, if I go to the True Martial Divine Palace, then the True Dragon Academy…”
“Don’t worry. The True Martial Divine Palace will handle this matter, and the True Dragon Academy won’t dare to stop you. Moreover, if you go to the True Martial Divine Palace to cultivate, it will be an honor for the True Dragon Academy. They can’t be happier,” Lin Wudao smiled faintly.
As he spoke, the piece of white paper fell into Li Qingcheng’s hand with a flick of his finger.
“In the next few days, wait patiently in Heishui Ancient City. In less than seven days, people from True Martial Divine Palace will come to welcome you. You don’t have to worry about being bullied there. No one would have the guts to do that since you are under the name Dongfang Bubai. Not only that, the True Martial Divine Palace will do its best to nurture you. Perhaps, it won’t be long before you become the face of the True Martial Divine Palace and become even more outstanding than Yan Huihuang.”
At this point, Lin Wudao took out a stack of G.o.d-summoning Paper and handed it to Li Heishui and Li Qingcheng.
“This is the G.o.d-summoning Paper. With this, you can connect and communicate with each other from hundreds of millions of miles away. Li Heishui, you should stay in the Heishui Ancient City for the next few days. When your sister goes to the True Martial Divine Palace, you can come and find me.”
“Yes, sir,” Li Heishui replied respectfully. In his heart, he was extremely grateful to Lin Wudao.
Lin Wudao smiled when he saw the change in the other party’s expression.
This move of buying people’s hearts was quite effective. From now on, Li Heishui would definitely be loyal to him.
This way, he would have a new capable helper.
“By the way, Dongfang Bubai has also told me about your cultivation technique. I will help you resolve the dharma techniques after the first volume of the Ancient Fate Energy Scripture). After returning to the City of Sin from the Taicang Ancestral Land, it should be done.”
The Ancient Fate Energy Scripture)?
Hearing this, Li Heishui was touched again.
At this moment, he didn’t know how to express his grat.i.tude to Lin Wudao. He could only nod and remember this kindness forever.
…
“City Lord, the Panlong family requests an audience.”
Suddenly, Yin Siming came to the courtyard and reported.
The Panlong Family? What were they doing here?
Lin Wudao was confused.
He did not have much interaction with the Panlong family.
Rather, he had previously killed a Heavenly Cycle realm patriarch of the Panlong family, Zhao Panlong. Could it be that the other party was here for revenge?
“City Lord, the Panlong family is here to send gifts.”
Gifts?
Lin Wudao was even more surprised.
“The person who came this time is the Seventh Young Master of the Panlong family, Zhao Zichen. According to him, what Zhao Panlong did in the Li family previously was not the original intention of the Panlong family. In view of Zhao Panlong’s boldness, they specially sent the Seventh Young Master, Zhao Zichen, to apologize,” Yin Siming said with a smile.
Interesting.
Lin Wudao smiled.
“Let him in.”
“Yes, sir.”
Soon, Yin Siming walked in with a handsome and extraordinary young man in embroidered clothes.
This person was the Seventh Young Master of the Panlong family, Zhao Zichen.
Hmm?
When Lin Wudao saw Zhao Zichen, a famous saying suddenly appeared in his mind: The young master was like jade, unparalleled in the world.
This sentence was very suitable for Zhao Zichen.
However, compared to the first impression which was quite good, when Lin Wudao’s G.o.d’s Spiritual Eye landed on Zhao Zichen, the admiration in his eyes instantly disappeared.
What replaced it was astonishment.
This was because the Seventh Young Master of the Panlong family was not as simple as he seemed on the surface.
[Name: Zhao Zichen]
[Ident.i.ty: Seventh Young Master of the Panlong Family]
[Cultivation: Early stage of the Heavenly Cycle Realm]
[Apt.i.tude: Outstanding]
[Cultivation Techniques: Panlong Scripture, Heavenly Sin Technique]
[Skills: Mountain River Ancient Fist, Heaven-plucking Hand, Heaven End Sword Art, secret skill – Great Shapeshifting Technique, secret technique – Great Teleportation Technique, Sinful Hand]
[Item: Scroll of Sin, Xuanming Ancient Sword]
[Lifespan: 886]
[Remark: 1. Sinful and heartless.]
[2. As he cultivates the Heavenly Sin Technique, the more sins he commits, the faster his cultivation rises.]
[3. A beast with a human face is nothing more than this.]
…
A lot of information was presented.
After reading it, even Lin Wudao found it unbelievable. The contrast between Zhao Zichen’s actions and his appearance was too great.
At this moment, he thought of another sentence when looking at Zhao Zichen: All is not gold that glitters.
