Chapter 895: Chapter 878: King Soldier Soul, Black Lotus Marquis Department!

[There will be another update tonight. The tribe leader has visitors at home, so the update will be a bit late, around 10 p.m.!]

Even if it was a damaged King Soldier, it was incomparable to the lesser half-king weapons, as they were inherently of different levels—a difference as vast as between heaven and earth.

This kind of might, even peak realm experts of the half-king stage had to avoid, in a flash, time seemed to have halted within the Stone House, and the entire fabric of time and space solidified. It was unimaginable what kind of power this could be, as time and space were the most elusive of the Mysteries.

Because Xiao Chen had realized that the Stone House they were in was sealed off, isolated from the outside world. However, he made no move and even stopped Luli’s actions, facing the Soldier Soul before him with equal puzzlement.

At this moment, he could confirm that the ancestral bloodline that Mu Qing had reverted to really belonged to an ancient regal family, the Mulin Family, and that past monarch had eventually fallen, leaving only damaged King Soldiers behind.

"Thirty thousand years have passed, and finally, someone has awakened me," a cold female voice resounded, yet it carried a strong resonance, echoing in everyone’s ears.

"I didn’t expect the descendant of the Cai Lian bloodline to be so weak. The three profound Mysteries of the Wood Dao aren’t even talking about deriving laws, they haven’t even fully grasped the Mysteries."

The Soldier Soul, like a fairy of peerless beauty, tried to conceal the profundity of ages in her eyes but failed.

"But after so many generations, they were still able to revert ancestrally and even reached a level of fifty percent, and there’s even a dense royal blood lurking within, not yet fully stimulated."

At that moment, the Soldier Soul’s gaze fell on Mu Qing, continuously sizing her up, seeing through her entirely.

"Little girl, I hope you can grow up."

Soon the rosy clouds descended, the lotus hidden, and that figure, like a fairy, vanished into thin air, leaving only the lotus flower before everyone’s eyes. This was a nine-tiered lotus, with nine petals.

However, at this moment there were only three petals on the lotus, lacking six.

Buzz!

The next moment, with the glow of the rosy clouds, the lotus flower entered towards the middle of Mu Qing’s forehead.

As the Soldier Soul disappeared, the seal inside the Stone House vanished as well, and even the Warriors passing by outside the Stone House didn’t notice a thing.

Sigh!

Fortunately, this manifestation of the Soldier Soul did not unleash too much overwhelming power; it seemed to be triggered by Mu Qing’s presence, as if the Soldier Soul itself was under some constraints.

"Mulin Family, Azure Lotus lineage tribe people have seen our lord," said the elder tremblingly as he got up with the young girl and knelt before Mu Qing.

The elder had clearly seen all that had transpired before. The King Soldier Spirit, a remnant of a once-sovereign from the Mulin Family, had personally confirmed Mu Qing as someone of the main lineage.

Even this lotus, which had been in the hands of the Azure Lotus lineage, had been passed down for tens of thousands of years and had never revived until Mu Qing appeared and awakened it.

Main lineage reverting to royal blood, these words he had heard clearly!

The main lineage of the ancient Mulin Family had a monarch ruling that was renowned across the Great Wasteland, with the other three lineages collectively respecting the main lineage.

The Azure Lotus, Black Lotus, and Purple Lotus lineages each inherited one of the three profound Mysteries of the Wood Dao: vitality, destruction, and restoration, but only the main lineage practitioners cultivated all three Mysteries.

When the monarch of the main lineage fell, the main lineage was destroyed, and the remnants of the tribe members disappeared. The Mulin Family fell, and the three branches separated and crumbled.

With the fall of the monarch, the King Soldier was shattered, and the three branches each took a piece of the broken King Soldier, subsequently establishing their own tribes.

However, to repair the damaged King Soldier, the three branches had hardly stopped openly and covertly competing, not to mention the killings, as the temptation of the King Soldier was irresistible.

Over the long years, the Purple Lotus lineage, originally mastering the Mystery of restoration, was obliterated by the Azure and Black Lotus lineages, its remnants of King Soldier’s shards divided, and subsequently, only the rivalry between the Azure and Black Lotus lineages remained.

Unfortunately, the elder’s Azure Lotus lineage was defeated once again, now only left with him and the young girl. Perhaps there were other Azure Lotus lineage tribe people in the Desolate Wilds, but they were scattered and unknown.

The Black Lotus lineage, however, grew increasingly strong, passing down through generations, though far less formidable than the former Mulin Family, yet it had become the current Black Lotus Marquis Department.

The elder, with the young girl, had been fleeing everywhere and had finally settled down in Eastern Emperor City, while the warriors from the Black Lotus Marquis Department followed them there.

Perhaps out of apprehension and fear of exposing the message of the King Soldier, the warriors of the Black Lotus Marquis Department did not act but also temporarily settled in Eastern Emperor City, keeping a watch over the grandfather and granddaughter.

A quarter of an hour later, Mu Qing finally understood all this. However, the Mulin Family no longer existed, only some scattered tribe people across the Desolate Wilds, similarly blending into the vast land, difficult to find, as one might pass by without recognizing each other.

"The ancient King Soldier was in the shape of a complete lotus. The Black Lotus Marquis Department holds the remaining six petals and the flower core," the elder said again, but this time his eyes held a sense of relief.

Now that the King Soldier had been obtained by Mu Qing, and there was no longer the constraint of the King Soldier, the weight pressing on him like a mountain vanished.

Since the King Soldier belonged to the main lineage and now that a warrior from the main lineage had returned, it was naturally necessary for possession to revert to its original owner; even if it stayed in their branch’s hands, it would not unleash its full potential.

"My lord, now that you have inherited the King Soldier, do you not want to reorganize the Muling Aristocratic Family?" Finally, the elder spoke to Mu Qing again.

"Senior, I am not aware of the past events. Even now, I do not fully understand the once Muling Aristocratic Family. What’s more, I am now married, with my own tribe and tribe people," Mu Qing’s voice rose in response to the elder’s words, showing disagreement.

"Moreover, the people of the Main Vein of the Wood Lotus have long been displaced, the branch you speak of has become fragmented; as for the remaining Black Lotus lineage, I now possess the King Soldier. In future struggles for this King Soldier, the Black Lotus lineage might meet me in battle."

"Black Lotus Marquis Department."

Xiao Chen muttered softly. This was also a Legendary Marquis Department, but it was located in the Northern Territory of the Eastern Wasteland, north to south with the Border Wasteland Region, separated by countless miles.

However, this newly mentioned tribe already had ties with him and would become an enemy.

"My lord, with the bloodline reverting to its origin, you are the master of the Muling Family. How could the Black Lotus lineage defy your imperial command?"

The elder was still hopeful, speaking with uncertainty.

In his view, the people of the main vein were the rulers of the Muling Family. The struggles over the years were due to the destruction of the main vein, lacking a revered figure. They fought fiercely over the King Soldier before.

Now that Mu Qing had appeared, and the King Soldier had a master, there was no need for the remaining people to fight.

Even if the warriors of the Black Lotus lineage did not want to submit, there were many warriors within the Black Lotus lineage, not a unified force. Some would likely follow the people of the main vein.

"Hmph!"

Suddenly, Xiao Chen snorted coldly, and in the next moment, a majestic aura burst forth, piercing through the Stone House and surging out.

Boom!

Outside the Stone House, a warrior was struck by his attack and was sent flying.

Spurt!

In mid-air, blood spilled, and a warrior fell outside the Stone Courtyard, struck by lightning.

This sudden turn of events shocked the warriors inside the Stone House.

"It’s someone from the Black Lotus Marquis Department," the elder exclaimed.

They had settled on Tianyuan Floating Island, and the Black Lotus Marquis Department was aware, thus Xiao Chen and the other two’s arrival could not be hidden from them.

"Grandfather, are those bad people here again?" The little girl, frightened, hid in the elder’s embrace, trembling, clearly left deeply fearful by the outsider warriors.

In an instant, Xiao Chen and his two companions stepped out of the Stone House and finally saw the newcomers; besides the one severely injured by Xiao Chen, there was another warrior helping the injured stand outside the ivy fence, also looking towards Xiao Chen.

"Who are you? This is not a place you should be. This elder and the child are escapees from my tribe’s household; this is a private matter!"

Xiao Chen’s attack had deterred the two men, who now dared not make another move and stood outside the courtyard, shouting sternly.

"Husband." Mu Qing looked at Xiao Chen.

Then Xiao Chen patted her jade hand, signaling her to be at ease. He clearly understood her intent for him to intervene and save the grandfather and granddaughter.

In fact, even if Mu Qing had said nothing, Xiao Chen would not have ignored the situation, having obtained the King Soldier from the elder. Though damaged, it held immeasurable benefits for Mu Qing’s future growth.

If one day she was fortunate enough to be promoted to a king, having the King Soldier would greatly enhance her combat power, as not every king possessed one.

"Sir, this is a private matter of my Black Lotus Marquis Department. I hope you will not interfere. The Legend strong ones of my department are also in the Eastern Emperor City. Please do not bring trouble upon yourself and your tribe," they warned.

"You!"

Xiao Chen ignored them, which kindled a rage in them. However, before they could finish speaking, a serene light fell from Xiao Chen, in a blink, it covered the two warriors, suddenly making them feel restrained.

"What is this?"

Carrying immense shock, the two warriors lost all sensation in an instant, naturally having been taken into the Mountain River Seal. With Luli’s presence, capable of suppressing a king, the fate of the two Stage Eight Realm warriors was obvious.

In the Eastern Emperor City, Xiao Chen did not wish to cause a big fight, and now that Mu Qing had obtained the King Soldier, he did not want many to become aware. It was best for these two warriors of the Black Lotus Tribe to disappear.

"Husband, let’s take them into our tribe."

Mu Qing nestled against Xiao Chen, her breath sweet as she softly spoke to him again.

Soon, serene light cascaded down and the elder with the little girl, along with Mu Qing and Nianhua, vanished in a blink. Xiao Chen transformed into a streak of light, heading towards the Eastern Emperor Inner City below, leaving only the dilapidated Stone House behind.
