Chapter 13117 Xiao Lianzhu's whereabouts
The Lord of the Palace smiled gently, and that smile showed his insight into the situation and a bit of admiration for Ling Xiao:
"In that case, we will hold our ground and continue to keep a close eye on him. Ling Xiao is Chen'er's friend, so we should do our best to take care of him. Even if we cannot directly become enemies with the Holy Hall and the Empress' Palace, it is also our responsibility to secretly lend a helping hand when he needs help."
After saying this, a gentle light flashed in Fu Zun's eyes. He would take care of anything his son liked.
"I understand. I will do my best to live up to your trust." The black-armored warrior bowed and accepted the order. Then he remembered another thing and added:
"In addition, according to the intelligence we have collected, Ling Xiao is currently looking for two women. One is named Yue Nu, whose identity is mysterious and we have no definite information yet; the other is Xiao Lianzhu, about whom we can provide some clues."
Having said that, the black-armored warrior's tone became more serious. It was obvious that Xiao Lianzhu's identity or whereabouts was not as simple as imagined.
"Oh? Where?" Fu Zun tilted his head slightly, frowning slightly, and his tone revealed his attention and concern for the sudden situation. His eyes penetrated the air, as if trying to cross the distant distance and look directly at the Huangquan Bulao Mountain where the incident happened.
"Just a month ago, Huangquan Bulao Mountain, that mysterious holy place shrouded in mist, was suddenly shrouded in a layer of dark clouds."
The black-armored warrior spoke in a low voice, and every word seemed to hit the heart of the Palace Master like a heavy hammer. "Xiao Lianzhu's master, the senior who enjoyed a high reputation in the martial arts world, unfortunately died in a carefully planned plot. Xiao Lianzhu seemed to have been abducted by a powerful force in the chaos, and her whereabouts are still unknown."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of the Mansion sighed softly. That sigh contained both mourning for the deceased and deep worry for Xiao Lianzhu's safety.
"Huangquan Bulao Mountain, this idyllic place, can't escape the fate of internal strife." He murmured to himself, with a trace of helplessness and regret in his eyes, "Do you know who kidnapped Xiao Lianzhu? What kind of conspiracy and calculation is hidden behind this?"
"It was a force inside Huangquan Bulao Mountain that did this. They are ambitious and ruthless, and now they have almost taken control of the entire Huangquan Bulao Mountain."
The black-armored warrior replied, his voice mixed with indignation and unwillingness, "Xiao Lianzhu's disappearance is undoubtedly one of the extreme measures they took to consolidate their power."
"Alas, the world is unpredictable and people's hearts are hard to predict." Fu Zun shook his head, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
"No matter what, we can't just sit back and do nothing. You must start right away and continue to investigate this matter in depth. Make sure you find out the true face of that force and the whereabouts of Xiao Lianzhu. If Ling Xiao goes to rescue people, help if you can, but don't reveal your identity!"
After saying that, the Palace Master gently waved his hand, signaling the black-armored warrior to leave. "Go ahead, be careful and be sure to pay attention to safety." He added, his tone full of care and expectations for his subordinates.
The black-armored warrior bowed, then turned around quickly and strode out of the room. His back stretched out in the dim candlelight, appearing particularly resolute and determined.
After the black-armored warrior left, Fu Zun started reading again: "Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao, I hope you won't let my son down. He admires you very much!"
……
Inside the inn, in a room decorated in a simple and elegant style, soft candlelight is sprinkled in every corner, adding a bit of warmth and mystery to this quiet space.
Ling Xiao sat at the table, his eyes focused on the pile of rings in front of him that were glowing with a faint light. The smile on his face was like the brightest sunshine in spring, warm and dazzling.
These rings were carefully selected and obtained through skillful negotiation between Sitong and Bada Commercial Banks after going through untold hardships. Each one carries a lot of wealth and adventure. He gently stroked the delicate lines on the surface of the rings, and an indescribable sense of accomplishment and satisfaction surged in his heart.
Among them, the number of high-quality spirit stones is simply staggering - the huge number of more than 300 million is enough to move any practitioner.
Adding what he had accumulated before, the total amount was approaching one billion. This huge resource of spirit stones would undoubtedly become the most solid backing on his path of cultivation, helping him to break through one bottleneck after another.
What’s even more precious is that these storage rings also contain two mid-grade Earth Venerable treasures. They emit a faint spiritual light and reveal an extraordinary aura. They are obviously extremely rare treasures.
In addition, there are dozens of lower-grade treasures at the Earth Venerable level, as well as a wide variety of miscellaneous items, each of which may be an indispensable aid on the path of cultivation.
But what moved Ling Xiao the most were the magic tools. They lay quietly in the ring, but seemed to contain endless magic power and possibilities.
A top-grade magic tool of the Earth Honor level was prominently on the list. Its quality was so high that it was extremely rare even in the entire Demon Suppression Mansion.
The thirty-two mid-grade Earth Honored magic tools and over a hundred low-grade Earth Honored magic tools formed a huge magic tool system that was enough to make any warrior jealous.
These magical tools can not only help him gain an advantage in battle, but also play an immeasurable role in the process of cultivation, helping him to rapidly improve his cultivation.
Ling Xiao's eyes were shining with excitement and anticipation. He knew the value of these treasures and how he would use them to improve his strength.
He secretly made up his mind to make good use of these resources and not let them be wasted in the slightest, so that his cultivation could be taken to a higher level and reach an unprecedented height.
He knew very well that although he was no longer the same as he was in the past and his strength had made a qualitative leap, there were many gifted people on this continent full of strong people.
On the road ahead, he will surely encounter more challenges and face more powerful enemies.
Therefore, being able to recover to his former martial soul realm, or even go further and break through to the legendary Tongtian realm, is not only a leap in strength for him, but also a continuous transcendence of his own limits. It is the only way to the peak.
Whenever he thought of this, an indescribable sense of urgency and desire surged in his heart.
However, he also understood that a true strong person is not only powerful, but also relies on the reasonable use and control of power. Tianluo magic tool, as a trump card in his hand, is his trump card to turn the tide of the battle at a critical moment. Naturally, he cannot show it to others easily, let alone use it in every small fight.
As for Tongtong and Ali, he was even more reluctant to let them get involved in any danger.
In their world, there should be only carefree laughter and pure dreams, instead of the intrigues and life-and-death struggles of this cruel world. Therefore, he secretly vowed to do his best to protect this innocence so that she can continue to live happily.
