Towards Eternity
Ch 499's. Beast Mounts
Maybe if the people closest to Weng Lou knew that Weng Lou had raised a disciple, they would assume it was a lie because Weng Lou was not even fifteen years old.
Although a few more weeks he was actually fifteen, but it did not help at all.
A Martial Practitioner when raising a disciple is usually at least seven or eighteen years old. About the age of Weng Ying Luan.
Very young Weng Lou will make some people feel that Weng Lou is not worthy to be a teacher for someone. But if you look at personality, mentality, knowledge and experience, maybe Weng Lou is more than enough to be a teacher for Du Zhe who is only eight years old.
Although Du Zhe was his first student, you could say Weng Lou had taught others first. They are Weng Wan and Weng Hua, his two best friends.
While still in White Star City, it was Weng Lou who gave them guidance and also gave them martial techniques. So both can be called unofficial students of Weng Lou, although in fact both will not want to admit Weng Lou as their teacher.
Du Zhe on the other hand, felt that he was still dreaming of successfully becoming a disciple of Weng Lou who was the strongest person he knew to date on Fanrong Island.
He did not know the strength of the Emperor of this island, or his subordinates whom he had yet to see, yet one he believed that Weng Lou could definitely defeat all of them.
As Weng Lou had previously gone to City 7, he vaguely saw Weng Lou flying in the sky. Since childhood, Du Zhe often heard stories about Gods and Goddesses who can fly in the sky freely like a bird. Seeing with his own eyes and head that Weng Lou was able to fly in the air, made him even more confident in the power possessed by Weng Lou.
After giving some direction to the former slaves as well as the soldiers, Weng Lou then went with Du Zhe back to the building where Wuyong was located.
Upon their arrival, Wuyong immediately handed over all the information he had combined in one thick paper scroll to Weng Lou. Weng Lou instantly read all the information he gave.
In just one minute, Weng Lou finished reading it, and rolled back the scroll, then handed it to Du Zhe.
"You read it too, so that your knowledge becomes more extensive" said Weng Lou.
Du Zhe immediately accepted the paper scroll, and opened it. He was shocked after reading some of the words present on the early parts of the paper roll. His head nodded like it was enlightened.
Looking at her who was very serious at reading, Weng Lou could only smile a little. It seemed that in addition to being interested in martial arts, Du Zhe was also thirsty for knowledge.
Weng Lou seemed to be looking at himself as a child when he looked at Du Zhe who was always excited about everything.
After a moment of silence due to seeing Du Zhe who was still reading, Weng Lou then raised his head and looked at Wuyong.
"I'll be gone again, and probably won't be back in a day or two. So I need you to guard this place until I get back. I don't care what you'll do when I leave, which is for sure if I find this place doesn't match my arrangements that I've set, then be prepared to pay with your life.
Don't think about escaping or anything, I can find you all the way to the end of this island, wherever you hide, I'll find you."
Listening to Weng Lou's explanation, Wuyong could not help but break out in a cold sweat. He could feel the seriousness and killing lust from every word that came out of Weng Lou's mouth.
He hurriedly nodded in return for Weng Lou's explanation. How dare he do as Weng Lou said.
In his mind, Weng Lou likely went to other cities in the slums and conquered all the existing cities. The shadow of the fall of the empire by the hands of a teenage boy made Wuyong goosebumps instead of playing.
Only the Gods knew what the fate of this empire was with the emergence of Weng Lou as a power capable of destroying the Fanrong empire alone.

Weng Lou and Du Zhe then went out of the city after giving some other explanations to Wuyong.
Unlike before, Weng Lou chose to take a simple walk because he was unsure whether Du Zhe could withstand the pressure of the wind if they both flew.
This was also all he used to train the physical Du Zhe who was still a child in order to grow.
At this very easy age, muscle and bone growth is very good, so this was a good opportunity to strengthen Du Zhe's foundation foundation to become stronger before he started teaching martial techniques to him.
Because it was impossible for Weng Lou to move quickly with Du Zhe, Weng Lou chose to run slowly. Even so, Du Zhe still could not keep up with the speed of motion of Weng Lou, and slowly he was getting left behind.
Inevitably Weng Lou finally decided to equate his steps with Du Zhe. The two of them had only arrived at the waterfall after a few minutes due to Du Zhe's extremely slow moving speed.
But Weng Lou did not mind him at all, nor was he able to run fast when he first learned martial arts, not even as fast as Du Zhe when he was eight years old.
At the waterfall, Weng Lou turned to his right and left, like he was looking for something. Du Zhe looked at him curiously and asked what he was looking for in this place.
"Our mount." Weng Lou gave an increasingly curious answer to Du Zhe.
But it seemed like Du Zhe could guess the mount that the Weng Lou was referring to.
Before long, Weng Lou smiled looking one way, then suddenly, immediately jumped high into the air and shot towards the direction he had seen before.
A few dozen meters in front of Weng Lou, the Black Ape of Combat was seen lying among the trees, with many fruits beside him. His hand every few seconds took the fruit beside him and ate it without opening his eyes.
While he was still leisurely enjoying his solitude, suddenly the Monkey opened his eyes to see the figure of Weng Lou was moving down towards him.
He initially only saw the ordinary figure of Weng Lou, but the closer he got to himself, the unpleasant feelings began to spread throughout the monkey's body.
And sure enough, just before Weng Lou arrived above his body, Weng Lou's right hand immediately clenched, clenched, and the next second a fist with a hundred percent physical strength of Weng Lou landed on the Black Ape Fighter.
A crack appears on the ground surface where it lies. The ape opened its mouth wide, and Weng Lou immediately stood on top of the ape's body after giving it a crushing blow.
The Black Ape Fighter looked like he was out of breath, Weng Lou punching right at his weak point.
"I thought you'd stay away from me, but you seem to have changed your mind, huh?" said Weng Lou casually.
"What changed his mind?! I'm relaxing, you brat!"
His right hand immediately moved swiftly patting his chest, the place where Weng Lou was standing at this moment.
But then, Weng Lou's right hand immediately brushed off the great ape's right hand casually, making the Black Ape Fighter surprised instead of playing.
How could this child have such immense physical strength?! He seemed to be unable to believe what he had just seen.
"Don't be so angry, I came here to make you an offer. If you want to be my riding beast, I'll give you the resources to grow stronger, how will you?" weng Lou asked with a big smile on his face.
Weng Lou's smile, when viewed from the perspective of the person who received it, will look like a smile that is very scary and full of many meanings in it.
But clearly, Weng Lou's smile was currently successful in making this Black Ape Brawler break out in cold sweat.
"You-You still want to make me your riding beast? Let me tell you, I don't want to be anyone else's slave anymore, I told you, did I? I only accept that it is an equal agreement, where no one is a master and a slave among us. If you don't want to, then forget it," the ape explained as he turned his gaze to Weng Lou.
"Come on, don't be."
Weng Lou swung his hand, and the two hammers he had never seen were removed from his storage ring and pierced the massive body of the Black Ape Fighter.
The heavy load immediately felt by the ape, he turned back to Weng Lou and looked at the two hammers. When he tried to lift his chest, the weight of the two hammers made him unable to move even a little from his place.
"W-What?! Impossible! How can I not lift these two hammers?!" it's panicking.
Both of his hands immediately moved and held the two hammers. He was seen trying to lift the two, but then the two hammers did not budge at all.
"This is a lie?!"
The heavy and sinister snarling sound of the Black Ape Fighter echoed, and he tried his hardest to lift the nail that was piercing him.
One minute, no change at all. Weng Lou who was just watching from earlier laughed softly while putting on a smile mocking him.
"I myself can't even lift 1 hammer, where maybe you can lift both" he said.
These two hammers he got from the old man of the inn while still in Hundan City. Surely he did not get it for free, Weng Lou had to pay dearly for this 1 hammer alone.
One hammer was worth five thousand gold coins, so he took out ten thousand gold coins just to buy these two hammers. Hammer that looks old and worn, there are even some rust on the sides, but miraculously this hammer has a weight that is not playing. So far, Weng Lou had only been able to lift one hammer with both of his hands as high as one inch off the ground. More than that, he couldn't do it at all.
Then why did Weng Lou instead buy these two hammers, which he could not even lift? It was because his old hammer he felt had already become light in his hand, so he needed a new training hammer with a heavy weight that many times over.
The only reason why Weng Lou was able to carry both of them was because he had a storage room.
"Give up, and be my riding beast. I'll put these two hammers back in if you'll take them."
"Damn....Do you not know shame?! Using this cunning manner, even for us beasts, is an act of cowardice!"
"Yeah. What's clear is that until you accept my offer, I won't take back these two hammers."
Weng Lou jumped down, and landed a few meters away from the monkey.
At the same time, the figure of Du Zhe following Weng Lou had reached the place where Weng Lou was.
He looked at the Black Ape Fighter who was lying on the ground with a question mark filled gaze. As he was going to this place, he continued to listen to the roar from this ape, thus making him very curious whether Weng Lou was fighting against him.
But what he saw was very different from what he thought. The ape was apparently just lying on the ground without sustaining any injuries, Du Zhe thought.
"Ck! Oi! Alright alright! I agree! Now take this hammer back! My chest already feels like a crumble!" Black Ape Brawlers whine at Weng Lou.
It was seen that Weng Lou laughed softly at the ape who finally gave up after putting on some resistance that was completely meaningless according to him.
He jumped up on the ape's body, then asked for his blood which was given quickly by the ape without asking a single question. Weng Lou did bond between himself and the Black Ape Fighter, which then made the relationship of the two bound in the bonds of Master and Beast Mount.
It did not take long, the bond was established, and Weng Lou was now able to feel the inside of the ape's body more thoroughly. After finishing drawing, Weng Lou descended from the top of the ape's body and stood with Du Zhe
Having become the beast of Weng Lou's mount, the ape got up and bowed in front of Weng Lou and Du Zhe.
Weng Lou then took Du Zhe with him. Du Zhe was a bit scared at first, but after he went up and saw the view of the forest from above the body of the Black Ape Fighter, he was blown away as well.
"Where are we going....Mister?" asked the monkey in a somewhat forced voice.
"To the north, we'll go to cities 4 and 5."
