Chapter 894: Chapter 877: Muling’s Remaining Veins, Damaged Royal Arms! (Supplementary Update 24)

Above the floating island, the terrain was undulating with stone houses built according to the land, and occasionally warriors swept past Xiao Chen and his two companions, their eyes filled with a trace of perplexity, but they did not stop and mostly kept their distance.

"Husband, it’s in the house just ahead!" Mu Qing quickly said excitedly, her eyes gleaming.

At this moment, the Purple and Green Lotus Mark on her forehead was becoming more mystical, with its fluctuations growing more intense, as if it was about to detach from her body.

Mu Qing’s ancestral bloodline had deepened ever since she started at the Blood Refining Realm, up to her current status at the Grand Honored Level, and even more so in the past two months, her King’s Blood Vessel had intensified.

Now her power had already advanced to the late Stage Seven of the Towering Realm, just one step away from complete culmination.

Similarly, since the time of bloodline ancestral return, the Dao that Mu Qing perceived was solely that of wood, involving vitality, desolation, healing, and all branches derived from the Wood Dao, her understanding of these Mysteries astonishingly swift.

The Purple and Green Lotus Mark on her forehead was the repository of her bloodline’s ancestral return.

At this point, the settlement that Xiao Chen and his group were facing covered about one square mile, with nearly a hundred stone houses. Despite being on the Tianyuan Floating Island, it was a relatively weak settlement.

As they entered this settlement, the three of them naturally drew attention. However, they headed toward the edge of the gathered area.

"This is the place."

A stone house crafted from Qing Stone, surrounded by a ring of Green Color creepers enclosing two stone houses into a courtyard, spanning merely dozens of yards. Through the creepers, one could see some Spirit Grass growing inside.

While not particularly precious, they were somewhat valuable. Currently, a girl about ten years old, with a wooden basket slung over her arm, was carefully digging up some of the mature medicinal herbs and placing them into the basket.

The initially cheerful girl, upon seeing Xiao Chen and his companions through the creepers, suddenly stopped humming, her mouth froze in mid-song, and even the freshly dug up herbs dropped to the ground, her face turning pale in an instant.

These changes all occurred in the moment after the girl saw Xiao Chen and his companions, and he was keenly aware of her overwhelming fear.

It was as if she saw them as monstrous flood beasts!

It was hard to imagine what sort of experiences had instilled such profound fear in this young girl, who was just over ten years old.

"Don’t come any closer, my grandfather has already been tortured horribly by you people, what more do you want?"

With a crying voice, the girl became frantic, her small frame rooted on the spot and trembling all over.

"This...?"

Xiao Chen and his two companions exchanged looks, but then Mu Qing motioned to Xiao Chen, her figure turning into a streak of light as she entered the courtyard.

"Leave quickly, Lian’er does not like you, and you won’t find the Treasures you are looking for here."

"You bad people hurt Grandpa, and now you want to harm Lian’er."

Embracing the girl, Mu Qing was far too strong for the girl to break free, but she did not bind her, allowing her to struggle.

Hum!

Soon, a wispy Purple-Green radiance fell from Mu Qing’s body, and feeling that Mu Qing had no malice, the girl gradually began to settle down.

"Little sister, I’ll call you Lian’er," Mu Qing gently spoke as the girl calmed down.

"Your sister comes from the distant Border Wasteland Region and is not affiliated with the bad guys you mentioned."

"You’re not with those bad guys?" Feeling a gentle aura emanating from Mu Qing, the girl could sense something highly familiar in it.

However, the villains who hurt her also possessed this aura, though their presence was not as refined and profound as this sister’s.

"Lian’er." Soon, a frail and elderly voice arose from inside the stone house.

"Grandpa." The girl, originally held by Mu Qing, was startled, not minding Mu Qing, she shouted out loud, "Grandpa, you’re awake."

Soon, Xiao Chen and his companions saw the girl’s grandfather.

Inside the stone house, it was very simple, filled with the strong scent of medicinal herbs, with several messy herbs piled together.

An old man lay on a black stone bed, covered with a tattered Beast Skin, which could no longer be identified as having come from any particular Evil beast.

The old man’s aura was very weak, and even his spirit had been heavily damaged.

A desolate aura was emanating from his body, devouring his life force.

"Grandpa." The girl quickly ran to the stone bed, her eyes filled with tears.

"Grandpa, Lian’er will make some medicine for you."

Immediately, the girl started to reach for the pile of medicinal herbs in the corner, but Xiao Chen, with just a glance, understood that the house’s ordinary herbs would be of no help to the old man’s condition.

"Lian’er, no need," said the old man weakly, a bitter smile in his eyes as he reached out feebly to grasp the girl’s hand, his eyes filled with sadness.

Then, glancing briefly at Xiao Chen and his companions and finally fixing his gaze on Mu Qing, he spoke after a few moments, "It seems there’s no escaping this. I only ask that you leave Lian’er alone."

"Grandpa." The old man’s words immediately alarmed the girl, whom, despite her young age, understood much.

Waving his hand to silence the girl’s cries, the old man struggled to sit up from the stone bed, breathing heavily.

"Can you tell this old man which branch you are from?"

However, the old man’s next words puzzled Mu Qing. She was certain that the grandfather and granddaughter before her shared the same origin of bloodline as her, but evidently, there was much hidden beneath the surface.

"The Black Lotus lineage, or the Purple Lotus lineage," the elder’s voice was exceptionally weak.

However, Mu Qing was indeed unclear about the branches he mentioned; even the Muling Family knew only through bloodline inheritance.

"Elder, we come from the Border Wasteland Region, and are not the individuals you speak of,"

Mu Qing’s words shockingly halted the elder. If not for his immense weakness, he might have risen from the stone bed. It took tens of moments for him to calm down.

"This is impossible!"

Despite this, the elder still muttered to himself, filled with disbelief.

"Husband,"

Seeing the elder’s frail body flickering like a candle flame, Mu Qing softly called out to Xiao Chen beside her.

Being married for many years, Xiao Chen naturally understood the meaning behind Mu Qing’s words. The next moment, a clear brilliance formed in his hand, and a beam of green light fell towards the elder.

"What is this?"

Soul Replenishing Pill, yet it wasn’t the nine-stage Soul Replenishing Pill Xiao Chen had traded for; it was merely at stage six, sufficient to repair the spirit of the elder before them, since the elder’s strength was only at the Grand Honored Level.

The dense fragrance of the elixir spread; though heavily injured, the elder still had keen sight and finally consumed the stage six Soul Replenishing Pill.

"Then can you tell this elder how you found this place?" asked the elder after taking the elixir, quickly regaining some spirit, although the enormous power of the Soul Replenishing Pill had not yet fully assimilated.

"It was due to sensing a summoning that we came," Mu Qing voiced in response.

What!

"This is impossible!"

This cry of shock from the elder now carried some energy, and the astonishment in his eyes was even more intense than before.

But the next moment, as if realizing something, the elder’s gaze shifted to Mu Qing, and he spoke word by word, "You are from the Main Vein of the Wood Lotus."

"Indeed, only those of the main vein could resonate with that object,"

he then muttered to himself as if comforting himself.

"However, the main vein has long been destroyed. How could there still be remnants of the main vein?"

After a quarter of an hour, a bitter smile finally appeared in the elder’s eyes again.

"Truly, it’s fate. It originally belonged to the main vein, yet here I am, pitifully watching as the three branches have struggled over it for tens of thousands of years, only for it to be in vain,"

he said with a sorrowful laugh.

"For this treasure, my Azure Lotus lineage is left with only Lian’er and myself, while the Purple Lotus lineage has been destroyed leaving only some tribe people scattered across the Great Wasteland. The most prosperous now is only the Black Lotus lineage. Compared to the time when the Main Vein of the Wood Lotus looked proudly over the Great Wasteland, the difference is like that between the bright moon and the dusty earth."

"Since the main vein has returned, the treasure shall rightfully return to the main vein!"

In an instant, the elder exclaimed, and a stream of light unexpectedly burst out from the little girl’s body—it was a lotus.

However, to those present, it was indescribable, for at that moment, they could find no words to describe this lotus.

Whoom!

Suddenly, the lotus emitted a soft hum, and a green figure emerged from it.

What!

This figure, with hair cascading like a waterfall that seemed to contain the spirit of the entire world, trailed by a ring of colorful lotuses that spread divine brilliance, appeared like a goddess from the heavens, stirring the hearts of those who beheld her.

"Soldier Soul!"

The true king’s soldier soul!

It was a king’s weapon that had attracted Mu Qing!

Xiao Chen was also frozen in place; this was his first encounter with a true king’s weapon!

Now he understood, a king’s weapon was equivalent to the continuation of a king’s life, also regarded as a king itself. Even if a king perished, the king’s weapon could still be passed down.

Because of this, the king’s weapons among the Hundred Clans of Heaven were also rare, and not all supreme kings possessed king’s weapons.

No other reason, the forging of a king’s weapon was equivalent to recreating the might of a king. Kings suppressed the Ten Thousand Miles Mountains and Rivers, their power permeating the Star River, making the creation more difficult than a warrior’s advancement to king.

Indeed, the materials for forging king’s weapons were exceedingly scarce; even divine metal could not manifest such power that suppressed the Star River.

However, at this moment, Xiao Chen noticed that the spirit of the soldier soul before them lacked some liveliness, as if it had been severely damaged.

"Could it be a damaged king’s weapon?"

Ps, recommend two books, "Calabash Brothers with System of Killing", big ideas, limitless fantasy.

Ps "The Greatest Saint Throughout the Ages," fellow readers can take a look, it’s said to be about the reincarnation of Guan Yu.
