Time Waits for No One, a Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity
The Crimson Blood Wolf, a cultivator at the Qi Refinement Great Perfection in Three Graves Mountain, was severely injured last July by Han Dahai of the Azure Origin Sect and Wei Chen of the Azure Palace, both Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivators.
In particular, the Crimson Blood Wolf was struck by Wei Chen's Mystic Nether Palm, which not only prevented it from improving its cultivation, but also meant it would undoubtedly die within ten years.
Even so, the Tang Household siblings, along with Tang Miao and Cui Xueyong, Meridian Opening Fifth Layer, and the white lynx, were no match for the Crimson Blood Wolf.
When Tang Tiansong said he killed the Crimson Blood Wolf, he meant telling Wu Changgeng of the Azure Origin Sect the exact location of the Crimson Blood Wolf's lair, so that Wu could coordinate with his sect to have the Azure Origin Sect disciples kill the Crimson Blood Wolf.
"Mystic Spoon Immortal Venerable said that this Crimson Blood Wolf must not be killed..."
"Could it be that Mystic Spoon Immortal Venerable knows this Crimson Blood Wolf?" Tang Tiansong wondered.
Brother, I don't know either.
However, the Mystic Spoon Xuanshao, through Tianya's words, told me that this Crimson Blood Wolf must not be killed.
As long as this Crimson Blood Wolf doesn't harm our Tang Household, we Tang Household must not launch an attack on it.
"We can't provide any information about it either, leaving the Crimson Blood Wolf to fend for itself or be killed by someone else," Tang Tiandong explained.
"Without the [Aperture-Opening Pill] bestowed by the Mystic Spoon Immortal Venerable, none of us seven siblings of the Tang Household would be able to cultivate immortality."
"Of course, our Tang Household will listen to what Mystic Spoon Immortal Venerable says." Tang Tiansong curled his lip.
The great fortuitous opportunity at the northern foot of Gazing Dragon Lake has not yet arrived.
With this Crimson Blood Wolf at the Qi Refinement Great Perfection in Three Graves Mountain, we dare not go and kill the Demon Beast.
Since you haven't decided whether to marry Tong Lingling from the Tong Household, we're too embarrassed to ask to borrow Spirit Stone.
What will happen to the Spirit Stone in the future?...
The path to immortality is indeed long and arduous..."Tang Tiansong smiled helplessly.
"Brother, Tong Lingling from the Tong Household has been poisoned by the [Nether Bone Poison], and her appearance has indeed become quite ugly."
Long Zhiyu, the eldest daughter of the Long Household on Divine Dragon Island, has tried to marry me time and again.
Although I might be a son-in-law who lives with his wife's family, she promised that our child could have the surname Tang.
Moreover, she gave a dowry of one hundred Spirit Stone and sent a giant dragon to reside permanently in our home.
The Long Household is no less powerful than the Tong Household, otherwise I would become a son-in-law of the Long Household.
Brother, don't think I'm being wronged.
Firstly, I did it for the Tang Household.
Our Tang Household has just entered the path of cultivation and is still weak, but a great fortuitous opportunity has suddenly descended upon us at the northern foot of Prosperous Dragon Lake.
At that time, someone will definitely covet it, and the Tang Household will be in danger.
Secondly, I also had selfish motives.
"I don't know why, but even though we haven't interacted much, I've actually come to like this Long Zhiyu." Tang Tiandong scratched his head.
After a few moments of contemplation, Tang Tiansong patted Tang Tiandong on the shoulder, "Fourth brother, marriage is a major life event."
Although we cultivators should take a detached view of human emotions.
But as the saying goes: a virtuous mother strengthens three generations.
For the sake of our future generations, you should think this through carefully.
I've also asked around, and the eldest daughter of the Long Household, Long Zhiyu, although she has a forthright personality that rivals any man, is obsessed with the dragon.
She wants to marry you simply because she thinks my family might have fossilized dragon eggs that could hatch into a divine dragon.
I also had Tianzi examine them carefully. The three substandard dragon egg fossils that we kept next to the Mystic Spoon could not possibly hatch into a giant dragon.
When the Long Zhiyu realizes this, she might take her anger out on you.
Tong Lingling of the Tong Household, aside from her appearance, was indeed a woman of good character, and her branch of the family had declined, leaving her alone.
So even though she's from the Tong Household, my Tang Household can still manage things...
Alright then, the wedding day of Jin Can and Ye Hailiang's second daughter will be held on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, which is a little over two months from now.
They requested that I be the officiant.
If you still have the same idea after I finish my work on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, I will take you, prepare generous gifts, and go to the Long Household on Divine Dragon Island to propose marriage.
Tiandong, you should consult with your parents more often. Although they are only human, they have a clearer understanding of matters of marriage than your parents.
Tang Tiandong nodded heavily. "Brother, I've got it."
I will ask my father and mother for their advice more often...
"Report!" a tribal soldier came to report.
"Reporting to the clan leader, a Western Rong man wearing a cloak is requesting an audience outside the gate."
This is the jade pendant he gave me.
After receiving the jade token, Tang Tiansong instructed the tribal soldiers to invite the Western Rong in. He then looked at Tang Tiandong and said, "This is the jade token I gave to Yang Yue'ao."
Normally, when Yang Yue'ao provides information about the Western Rong and Gu Husha, he always sends a trusted confidant.
Why did you come in person this time?
Could something big have happened in the Western Rong?
"Hmph, it would be best if this Gu Husha a violent death." Tang Tiandong curled his lip.
Tang Tiansong smiled and shook his head. "If it really was Gu Husha died suddenly, I will never eat meat again; I will be a vegetarian for the rest of my life."
... The four cities built by Gu Husha — Northern Mystic City, Southern Vermilion Bird City, Eastern Slaughter City Buried Bones City —are virtually defenseless.
If we must launch an attack, it would be better to attack Northern Mystic City.
Firstly, Northern Mystic City was built in a short period of time, and its walls were not as strong as the other three cities.
Secondly, Yang Yue'ao belonged to the Gaoxin Clan, which was, after all, a branch of the Western Rong royal family and had some deep-rooted connections within the Western Rong.
Over the past six months, some of the garrison commanders in Northern Mystic City have secretly sworn blood oaths with Yang Yue'ao Yang Yue'ao under his gold and beauty offensive.
In matters of blood oaths, the Western Rong herdsmen are more trustworthy than city dwellers like the Tang Household of the Central Continent.
The territory of the Guishi Clan on the Gui River is the closest to Northern Mystic City.
Tang Tiansong had always wanted to make contact with the Guishi Clan, not seeking an alliance, but only hoping that the Guishi Clan wouldn't come to the Tang Household's aid when they attacked Northern Mystic City...
... You mean the Guishi Clan is currently lacking food and clothing.
"Now, as long as my Tang Household provides some money and grain, we can establish a harmonious relationship with the Guishi Clan?" Tang Tiansong looked at Yang Yue'ao, who had gained weight, with a serious expression.
"King Tiansong, it's absolutely true."
Even now, cannibalism has occurred among the Guishi Clan.
"Your Majesty, you only need to provide a small amount of money and provisions, Guishi Clan will surely be grateful." Yang Yue'ao said with a smug look on his face.
"Brother, this is a great opportunity to establish an alliance with the Guishi Clan." Tang Tiandong nodded with a smile.
"Not only that..."
Time waits for no one. We can't wait any longer. If we wait until Gu Husha fully grown, our Tang Household will be in danger. This is a golden opportunity to attack the Western Rong.
"If we can't kill Gu Husha, we'll at least break one of his arms. This time, we're going to take over Northern Mystic City!" Tang Tiansong's lips curled into a slight smile...
Seeing the spirited Tang Tiansong, Yang Yue'ao's slightly chubby cheeks instantly became covered in sweat, and he knelt down with a thud, "Your Tiansong, please forgive me."
Perhaps my relationship with those shepherd generals of Northern Mystic City isn't that good.
The key issue is that there are now witch cultivators in Northern Mystic City.
Tang Tiansong frowned. "Tell me in detail, tell me the truth!"
Yang Yue'ao immediately nodded in agreement, and reported back with trepidation...
According to Yang Yue'ao, the Western Rong generals guarding Northern Mystic City were merely drinking buddies with him, and now that Gu Husha powerful, he enjoyed high prestige among the Western Rong people.
The Western Rong people now believe that the Gu Husha was sent by Heaven to protect them.
They all firmly believed that the Gu Husha would bring prosperity to all the Western Rong people.
Originally, among the Gu Husha, besides himself who was currently at the Meridian Opening Sixth Layer, Yangshe Man was a miscellaneous cultivator at the Meridian Opening Fifth Layer Realm, and there were two or three other miscellaneous cultivators whose cultivation was only at the Meridian Opening First Layer.
In the past two months, Gu Husha has suddenly gained ten miscellaneous cultivators with Meridian Opening Late Stage cultivation levels around him.
Only mortals who have "Aperture Opener" can cultivate immortality.
However, those Aperture Opener are less than three in a thousand.
Among the Western Rong people, those Aperture Opener are less than one in a thousand.
Furthermore, since the Western Rong people lacked systematic Cultivation Method manuals, very few of Western Rong 1.5 million inhabitants were cultivators.
The Aperture Opener among the Western Rong people mostly became shamans and healers within their tribes, rather than becoming miscellaneous practitioners with offensive capabilities.
"According to the proportion, nearly a thousand people from the Western Rong tribe could indeed become cultivators, but as far as I know, most of them have become tribal shamans and healers, and their cultivation levels are not high."
"Why Gu Husha suddenly gain ten more cultivators at the Meridian Opening Late Stage? Could they truly be sent by heaven?" Tang Tiansong wondered...
