Chapter 789 The Whereabouts of the Five Battle Spirit Guardians
‘Today, I was fortunate enough to witness the world of a bigshot. I’ve learned a lot.’
“Su Chen, the expert entrusted you with such an important job because he thinks you can do it, so you must do this job well. Don’t let him down, okay? And under no circumstances should you eat the manure!” said Su Changhe solemnly.
Su Chen pursed his lips while thinking something sounded off about what his father said. However, he still nodded and said, “Don’t worry, father. I’ll definitely make you and the expert proud of the work I do!”
Suddenly, the stele shook violently, and then, an earth-shattering might erupted, condensing into a phantom who looked over to where Su Chen and the others were. Everyone in the Su family widened their eyes in horror when they felt the terrifying pressure bearing down on them.
“Sh*t, that stele’s actually alive!”
“Not only is it alive, but it’s also very powerful. It’s definitely a Wisdom Dictator!”
“It’s too terrifying. It’s worthy of being on the mountain where the expert lives. We can only blame ourselves for being too narrow-minded to think that everything was simple.” “Even the stele’s so awesome, I really don’t deserve to be here at all.”
Everyone took a gulp and spoke in awe. They were not afraid that this stele would hurt them. After all, it lived at the foot of the mountain, so it would definitely not be an enemy.
Third Elder quickly cupped his fist in a salute and apologized, “Greetings, senior. I’m sorry if we’ve offended you. Please, forgive us for not paying our respects sooner.” The stele did not care about all that. It kept its gaze fixed on the Su family and in a voice trembling with excitement, it said, “I can feel Third Brother’s aura on you. Did you see him?!”
Then, he turned to Blackie and the others and asked expectantly, “Lord Dog, Goddesses, did you?
‘Thi… Third Brother?’ Everyone in the Su family was dumbfounded.
However, there was a hint of surprise in Nanan’s eyes. When she was in the Origins Realm before, she felt a familiar aura coming off Master Thunder’s longbow. She immediately knew where the familiar aura came from when she saw the stele. That longbow must be one of the original seven Battle Spirit Guardians! “Uncle Stele, is Third Brother a red longbow?” asked Nanan.
Boom! The stele shook violently and it almost could not control its aura. “Yes, that’s exactly it! You really saw him? How is he? Where is he?” it asked excitedly.
“Uncle Stele, we’ll tell you everything, but please, calm down first,” said Dragin soothingly. Then, she told the stele everything that had happened in the Origins Realm.
“Heaven Plundering Alliance? How dare they refine Third Brother into a treasure?!” The stele shook violently and bursts of incomparably tyrannical and murderous aura erupted out for it. It was as if it would burst out into the sky and fly straight to the Origins Realm in the next moment.
The seven Battle Spirit Guardians were transformed from the supreme powers of the world in order to suppress Heaven. They contained the pride and blood of the supreme powers, but now, one of them had been refined into a treasure. This was a monstrous humiliation!
“Please, calm down, Uncle Stele. We don’t know where Third Brother is now. Acting rashly won’t do any good,” said Dragin hurriedly.
“How did Third Brother end up in the hands of the Heaven Plundering Alliance?” asked the stele in a low voice.
“Senior, it was the Heaven Plundering Alliance who first entered the Ancient Forbidden Area,” answered Su Changhe.
The stele immediately figured out the link and said angrily, “So, the Heaven Plundering Alliance’s target is us? Dammit!”
Just as its namesake, the Heaven Plundering Alliance, claimed to plunder all the opportunities between heaven and earth. The Ancient Forbidden Area carried the catastrophe of the previous years, and also carried the heaven-sealing remains of the original superpower, so it was only natural for the place to become the target of the Heaven Plundering Alliance. Surely, they would not let go of the opportunity to get their hands on the seven Battle Spirit Guardians when they invaded the Ancient Forbidden Area.
“This means there’s a chance five of my other brothers are all in the hands of the Heaven Plundering Alliance!” The stele’s voice was hoarse with raging fury. The thought of the five brothers being refined into treasures by the people of the Heaven Plundering Alliance made its heart feel as if it was being stabbed by a knife.
Nanan’s face flushed red and she said angrily, “The seven Battle Spirit Guardians are the projections of the heroes who suppressed the catastrophe, and you all should be worshiped by the world. What the Heaven Plundering Alliance did is unforgivable. We must rain down payback on them!”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Stele, we’ll definitely find a way to help you save your brothers,” promised Dragin.
After appeasing the stele, Nanan, Dragin, and Blackie carried the fruit trees back to the four-part architecture. They arrived there in no time.
At that time, Shi Tuqin was moving a small bench to the corner of the chicken coop. She then sat down on the small bench and started to carefully draw a chicken. Her face was fixed in concentration as she drew the outlines of the chicken, stroke by stroke. Endless Wisdom intertwined with Origins flowed from the tip of her brush, bringing the drawing of the chicken to life. She was no longer painting but creating a powerful creature! The level of difficulty was not for the faint of heart. She felt that her fingers were as labored as carrying a heavy burden, and that was only from drawing a few feathers!
“I shudder to think how difficult it would be to draw Lord Dog if a chicken is already this difficult. But, I’ll only consider myself proficient if I can draw Lord Dog. If only I could draw the expert… No, that’s impossible! I shouldn’t even think about it!” She hurriedly threw out this unrealistic idea from her mind. Having a goal was a good thing, but not if the goal was unattainable. It would not be a stretch to say that the thought of drawing the expert itself was a kind of blasphemy, given the indescribable level that the expert was in. At the same time, Qin Manyun was playing the Guqin. Her music was completely different from before; there was no fixed rhythm, and it was obvious that she was not playing from any sheet music. If one listened carefully, one would hear the sound of the gurgling stream, blowing wind, and the rustling of leaves harmonizing with the sound of the Guqin. The Guqin sound was blending with nature, using nature as the score to make music together. Endless power flowed around her, interweaving into the most beautiful notes. At the same time, it could instantly explode with enough force to destroy the sky and earth.
In the pavilion, Little Fox was staring blankly at the chessboard, obviously bored out of her mind. Her initial passion for chess had waned after playing the game for a long time; she was no longer so keen on playing chess, or in other words, she was no longer satisfied with playing chess by herself. She thought of the pleasure she felt when she abused her opponents during the chess game last time. This made her want to go out and abuse others again.
Little Fox sighed and said, “I envy Nanan and Dragin. I want to go out to play, too…”
It was at that time, the sound of the creaking door being pushed open could be heard.
“Brother Li, we’re back,” said Nanan happily.
Li Nianfan, who was drinking the last bit of the wolfberry tea, was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise, “Back so soon? Oh hey, you really brought back the fruit tree! Well done. These are…wolfberry vines and a red date tree! All good stuff!”
