Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 109: The Old Man the Ruler
On the sixth floor.
"One day they were on top. But there's no sign they're coming back."
The Yan Clan group, the Hong Clan group and the Imperial Academy group were waiting for the descent of the five people who ascended to the seventh floor.
No one knows exactly when they will return. So everyone can only wait without clarity while gathering with their respective groups.
"At that time I asked Zhang Yu to throw away his plaque as it looked worn and worthless. Who would have thought it turned out that the plaque was access to ascend to the seventh floor." Wu Zetian hugged his knees and imagined that he was the one who climbed to the top. That must be very lucky.
"It's not just you. I also felt that the plaque was worthless. But ... From here we can learn, never judge something by its cover alone. Because what seems ordinary, sometimes is far more precious than what shines." As she said so Tang Yue took out some resource crystals.
He smiled bitterly then threw the silvery-blue-colored crystal at Sun. "Eat a lot. Don't let your master get angry when he comes back!"
Cit...
Sun who was on Wu Zetian's shoulders directly jumped at Tang Yue. He ate those resource crystals like eating peas. In a few flashes one crystal of ludes resources was eaten.
Wu Zetian looked at the gluttony of the little ape then began to think of something. He smiled then took out some resource crystals. "Eat this! You have to eat a lot!"
The change in expression Wu Zetian showed was so quick that it left Tang Yue stunned. "What are you planning?" tanyanya.
"none. What can I plan?" Wu Zetian flicked his shoulders and continued to throw the resource crystal at Sun.
After that he approached while stroking it. "Tell your master if I treat you well. Remember that? Just me."
Cit!
"Smart monkey!" Wu Zetian took that as an agreement. Then it re-emits more resource crystals.
Somewhat far from where the three of them were, Jiang Fu secretly clenched his hands and hit the wall quite hard.
Seeing how Zhang Yu was able to ascend to the seventh floor to obtain the inheritance actually made him very angry. Moreover his plan to utilize the Yan Clan did not go smoothly after Zhang Yu had the support of the first prince.
"Bad! Why is his luck so good?! I can't take it!" Jiang Fu stomped his feet on the floor. Coincidentally the floor under his feet instantly shook.
The sound of cracks coming from the surrounding walls also attracted attention. Those who gathered there became vigilant.
"What's going on?" Jiang Fu looked at his feet. Couldn't it be that the tremors were caused by him? He was even still at the expert level, so it was impossible for his foot to be able to make this room shake.
The tremors that occurred on the sixth floor were also felt on the other floor. One to five, even the seventh floor was shaking violently accompanied by the sound of wall cracks.
Xuan Yin opened his eyes. The energy that he had originally been able to maximize suddenly vanished without a trace. He woke up with a frown on his forehead and looked confused.
At first he thought it was just happening to him. But the three people around him also experienced it. They woke up simultaneously and gazed towards the black cage in confusion.
As they were still wondering what was really going on, the tremors on the seventh floor grew stronger to the point of making them almost fall off the stone stage.
"What the fuck?! Is there a group of spiritual beasts attacking?" muttered them.
Xuan Yin turned to pay attention to Zhang Yu. At another moment, this man was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
"What's he doing? Want to sit like that?" inner Xuan Yin. He could not see any energy that could be converted by him, so he thought Zhang Yu did nothing but sit unmoved on the spot.
"Who are you?"
Zhang Yu's consciousness suddenly moved into a vast empty room. Under his feet was like a cloud, but it felt warm.
In front of him was an old man wearing white clothes. Don't know who he is, because since coming to this place he just kept quiet as if he didn't hear his voice.
"How did I suddenly get to this place! How do I get out?"
"Stay here. You won't be able to get out without my consent."
Finally after a long time of silence the white-clothed old man spoke up.
"What does Senior mean? Why do I have to stay here?" ask Zhang Yu.
The old man smiled in a friendly manner. He walked over then pressed his hand against Zhang Yu's head.
Zhang Yu felt anxious to avoid it. But the body seemed locked and could not step anywhere.
"Obey, I just want to show you something."
After Zhang Yu calmed down, the old man injected a memory into Zhang Yu's head. In an instant his gaze darkened and a projection screen appeared before his eyes.
A big fight. The battle between the spiritual beast led by the dragon god with all humans from all corners of Zhen Yang Land. Forty days and forty nights. Killed millions of people and injured many more.
But in that extremely tense fight the human army was finally able to defeat the army of spiritual beasts after the dragon god fell from the figure of the man carrying the spear.
The end of the fight also ended those memories. Zhang Yu started to regain his sight and looked at the old man carefully.
"Are you the man who defeated the dragon god?" tanyakanya.
The old man smiled. "really. I'm the man who defeated the dragon god. I'm master of this place. Who locked the remains of the dragon god's soul in the sacred cage."
Zhang Yu could not help his surprise hearing this. He silently watched her and averted his gaze once their gazes met.
"What business is it that senior calls this junior to come?" zhang Yu asked filled with courtesy. He tries to put himself in the right place and the right time.
The old man smiled again. Then he said, "I see your body structure very well. Unlike the other four people who managed to reach the seventh floor. They're not as good as you. Even though she has a special physical condition, you're still better."
A lady?
Zhang Yu held his breath for two seconds as this sentence came out of the old man's mouth. He even knew of Xuan Yin's disguise. So it was obvious this old man had the ability.
"Sorry Senior, I still don't understand."
The old man was silent and looked very serious. "I want you to be my heir! Inherited my power and all that I have."
"Are you ready?" ask the old man.
Zhang Yu began to imagine what kind of power he would gain. He raised his hand confidently while smiling quite wide. "I ...."
