Chapter 599 - Monarchs

On the Red Mist Peak, Spiritual Master Red Mist watched as Senior Brother Gong and Ma Wei left. Unknowingly, a middle-aged cultivator with slightly similar facial features had already appeared behind him.

Spiritual Master Hong Lan seemed to have long known about the person behind him. He asked without turning his head, “Father, do you think that Sang Gensheng really raised the Spirit Mulberry King?”

The Adept Qingyu shook his head: “It’s just that it’s very possible, but one thing we can be sure of, and that is that Sang Gensheng definitely knows about our sect’s inheritance in nurturing the Spirit Sage Seed. Although he has been excluded from the school in the past few years, and is unable to mobilize too much cultivation resources, Sang Lin Feng’s mulberry trees that fill the mountains makes people suspicious!”

Daoist Master Hong Lan was puzzled as he said, “Father, such as the inheritance for the nurturing of the Spirit Sage King’s seed, it is a secret within our sect. Only a few cultivators with Taihang Realm or higher know the contents, and Sang Sen can only produce a single Gangli Accumulation Realm, how would he know such a secretive matter about our sect?”

Adept Qingyu walked over and handed an elm box in his hand to the Honorary Master Hong Lan, saying, “This involveublic case in the past, and this matter has been going on for many years. This also involves the competition between our sect’s Sect Leader, Daofather Bluegrass, and our other heaven’s pride level expert, the Guru Lansheng. Thus, in the future, no one in the sect would mention that you were unaware of this matter.”

“Adept Lanesang?” In the end, however, it was all to no avail. Thus, she could only ask, “How is it that your son has never heard of this Guru Lansheng? If he truly was able to match up to Daofather Bluewood back then, he wouldn’t be a nobody.”

“That’s because he lost in the competition for the Sect Leader position against the Blue Sunflower Daofather. Afterwards, he perished after a great battle, so there were very few people who spoke of him afterwards.”

When the Honorary Master Hong Lan saw the Adept Qingyu, he knew more about the secrets of the past. However, with just these few words, he could already guess what had happened.

The Adept Qingyu continued to speak, “At that time, Sang Gensheng was the lackey of the blue locust Taoist, and was also oncising star in the sect. Later on, when the blue locust Taoist lost, he was also loyal and did not change the course of events, but for many years, he was always suppressed by the crowd. However, I found out by chance that the blue locust Taoist had given him the inheritance to cultivate the Spirit Sage Seed before he fell, but there was no evidence.”

At this moment, Adept Red Mist could probably guess that her father had always been a supporter of the Sect Leader, the Bluegrass Daoist Ancestor. Sang Gensheng had been suppressed for many years, and the mastermind behind this had been her father who had contributed greatly to the fight for the Sect Leader.

“After Old Demon Sang passed away, this disciple quickly sent people to take over the Sang Lin Hall, but I did not find any Spirit Sang Wang seed. Thus, I guessed that if this thing really exists, there iigh chance that it is Sang Shener, since they are all from the same sect, and if the appearance is too ugly, someone else might catch hold of it.”

Adept Qingyu nodded his head and praised: “You are right, but there is one other thing you need to pay special attention to. Back then, there waumor that before participating in that war, Master Lan Sang was destined to die, and he even left Sang Gensheng a treasure. This was originally even more unreliable than the inheritance of the Spirit Sang Imperial Seed, but there were people who had sought confirmation of this matter back then.

Daoist Master Hong Lan tried asking, “Was it about the matter of Old Devil Sang being seriously injured all those years ago?”

The Adept Qingyu hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still nodded his head and said: “That’s right, since I have a great treasure, I will not take it out to protect my life when I die. However, Sang Genji looked like he wanted to die, but he did not take out the great treasure left behind by Master Lan Sang.

Adept Hong Lan knew that if an outsider were to make a move, then there was no reason not to cut the grass. Back then, Sang Genshou was severely injured and was on the verge of death, but the person who made the move did not leave.

Thinking about it here, Spiritual Master Hong Lan finally had a better understanding of the ruthlessness of Ling Yizong’s internal strife.

The Adept Qingyu purposely spoke these words to his son, naturally having a deeper meaning. Seeing him meditate, the Adept Qingyu did not disturb him, but instead had a pleased look on his face.

The moment she opened it, a dense cloud of spirit energy rushed over. She could not help but take a deep breath, giving off a relaxed and happy feeling, and at the same time, a sweet and fragrant smell rushed straight to her nose. She actually felt that her stomach was letting out a “gulu gulu” sound, as if she was actually feeling hungry.

“This is …” The mulberries produced in our sect’s mulberry garden secret plane? ” A look of joy flashed in the eyes of the Spiritual Master Hong Lan.

Within the Spirit Sealing Box, there were twelve mulberries neatly placed. They were black and purple, almost the size of an egg. The rich spirit energy contained within them was almost bursting out.

The Adept Qingyu smiled as he shook his head: “No, it’s not an ordinary spirit tree mulberry. It’s the three-hundred-year-old mulberry fruit on the only seven spirit mulberry trees that exist in the Mulberry Garden Secret Realm. The amount of spirit energy contained in this fruit can save you one year of cultivation time after refining it.”

He asked, “Father, from what I know, the number of mulberries planted on the seven spirit mulberry trees is extremely limited. They can only be used to supply the cultivators that are at the late stage of realms of life realm or higher in our sect, and even if you have the status of Heavenly Dipper Realm, you will only be able to get one out in less than two years, Father.”

There’s no possibility for me to advance my Taihang Realm any further, so I might as well leave these things for you. Before your cultivation is not ideal, so you might as well waste more than half of these things to refine, but today, with your current cultivation, refining these mulberries has saved you almost twelve years of cultivation time. At that time, it would not be impossible for you to advance your Profound Constellation Realm, so you would be considered one of the top three disciples in our sect. ”

Speaking up to here, Adept Qingyu spoke sincerely: “Father is already old, you are the only one who can accomplish the task for seven or eight of our children. In the future, our Huang Family will depend on you for support.”

At this time, An Xia was roughly aware of his son’s situation in Ling Yizong, and she knew that things could not be done. He was much more cautious than his hot-blooded son, and did not agree to meet him at his place of residence, but rather directly abandoned his family business in the town, giving the impression that he had not left, and secretly brought Yang Tian Yan to another secret location to meet An Xia and An Xia, who had escaped.

In reality, even though An Hao had made up his mind, when he was really going to make preparations to escape, the seemingly weak Sang Shener had thought about things much more meticulously than An Hao, who had planned to only flee with his head held low.

“The Sang Lin Peak has always been ostracized by the sect. Father had actually already prepared for the worst.”

There were naturally some people who were monitoring them from the top of Sang Lin Peak, but they were not to the extent of following their shadows. In a room filled with junk, Sang Shener took out a wooden sculpture’s necklace from around her neck, and the necklace flashed a little when it was close to the ground, and then lifted up a wooden board carved with runes on the back. Below was a deep cave that only one person could enter.

“This passage leads directly to the forest that is dozens of miles away from Sang Lin Peak. Although we are still not out of the range of Ling Yizong’s Great Protection Array, we can temporarily escape the surveillance of the people under Hong Lan’s command. By the time they sensed us, we had already left the sect long ago.”

An Hao looked at the passage on the ground with his mouth wide open in shock, and muttered: “Teacher is actually, actually.”

Sang Shener stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at An Hao’s similar changing expression. In the end, he only saw her swiping a few times amongsile of junk within this wooden house, and when she stood up, she was holding a wooden stick that was one and a half feet long. The wood of the wooden stick was a light red color, and a three-pronged fork that was only two inches long.

Seeing Sang Shener’s actions, An Hao looked at the wooden stick in her hand and asked: “Senior Sister, what are you doing?”

Sang Shener did not directly answer, but instead looked at the wooden stick in her hand and asked: “Junior brother, do you still remember the reason why I told you two days ago that your father wanted you to suppress your cultivation and not advance to realms of life?”

An Hao answered: “Of course I remember. Teacher wanted me to definitely advance to the realms of life after I found a high rank cultivation method. That way, I would have more achievements in the future.”

An Hao handed over the wooden stick in his hand, and An Hao subconsciously caught it. He heard Sang Shener nod his head: “You’re right, but in reality, there is an even more important reason why my father did not say it, and that is because the wooden stick in your hand is the one you’re holding right now!”

“This stick?”

An Hao looked at the light red wooden stick in his hand in bewilderment. He didn’t sense anything special about this stick at all, but said: “Since it’s what Teacher has said, then I’ll keep this wooden stick on me at all times.”

“This is still not enough! You still want to use this rod as your life’s magic treasure to refine it!”

Sang Shener similarly did not know where the precious wooden stick was, but this did not stop her from informing An Hao about her father’s instructions to him when he was still alive: “Father said thaerson of great status once entrusted him with the custody of this item, and told him to choose a suitable disciple to pass this treasure down to in the future. And the person my father chose for that important person was you.”

Sang Shener didn’t pay any attention to An Hao’s astonishment and returned the wooden sculpture necklace back to his neck. Then, she walked into the passage and said, “Let’s go, we need to escape Ling Yizong before the people from the Red Mist Peak can react.”
