Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 191 - 146: From the Imperial City to Beyond the Dragon Capital

Chapter 191: Chapter 146: From the Imperial City to Beyond the Dragon Capital

"Besides asking your Elder to come, is there no other way for you to completely awaken Xiao Ran?"

Han Dong spoke in pain.

"Alas, my skills are shallow, I am powerless."

Tree Vine Immortal had a look of apology.

"Rest assured, as long as the Emperor of the Great Tang invites our Elder, he will surely have a way to wake the Little Prince."

Daoist Heihu added.

"Although the Little Prince hasn’t fully awakened yet, please be rest assured, King Xiao, the Little Prince is no longer in life-threatening danger. Take this time to nurture his body well, and when our Elder arrives, the Little Prince will be lively and vigorous."

Tree Vine Immortal, being a cunning fox, said a few good words fearing King Xiao would be displeased.

"Thank you both, Immortal Masters, I am eternally grateful."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan did feel somewhat relieved. No matter what, Xiao Ran’s life was preserved, and as for inviting the Elder of Yun Gui Sect to awaken Xiao Ran, Xiao Zhan believed, given his legendary battle achievements, the Emperor would surely comply.

"My vitality is greatly depleted, I must return to recuperate, I take my leave now."

Daoist Heihu cupped his hands. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Tree Vine Immortal weakly nodded his head.

"Take care, Immortal Masters, tomorrow Mr. Xiao will pay a visit."

Xiao Zhan dared not retain them and instructed Yang the Third: "Quickly escort the two Immortal Masters back to the Imperial City without delay."

Yang the Third’s forehead was covered in dark lines, but when facing Tree Vine Immortal and Daoist Heihu, he cheerfully said, "Immortal Masters, please follow me!"

With that, the three of them descended the mountain together.

At this time.

The guards had already cleared away the phoenix tree blocking the road.

A luxurious carriage was parked in front of the temple.

Daoist Heihu and Tree Vine Immortal got into the carriage one after another, while Yang the Third rode alongside on a horse to escort them.

"Heh heh, those with the surname Xiao, the Three Spirits—Celestial Impact, Spirit Wisdom, and Central Hub—are all in our hands, and Xiao Zhan truly believes that only when the Sect Elder arrives can Xiao Ran truly be awakened."

Daoist Heihu sneered.

From his Black Gourd emerged three green lights, which were precisely the Celestial Impact, Spirit Wisdom, and Central Hub belonging to Xiao Ran that he spoke of.

Only when these Three Spirits are returned.

Can Xiao Ran truly awaken, otherwise, he would be no different than a vegetative man, lying in bed for life.

"Xiao Zhan is nothing but a brute, how could he understand the magical techniques of our Yun Gui Sect? Earlier he dared to urge us to cast spells, appearing polite yet in essence, he didn’t take us seriously at all."

Tree Vine Immortal was very perceptive.

He sensed that if they couldn’t awaken Xiao Ran, in Xiao Zhan’s eyes, they would be nothing.

"I have long noticed; in his eyes, our specialized magical techniques are no more than ordinary innate level. I heard that after Xiao Ran’s accident, Xiao Zhan went alone to the Turkic Border Defense Camp and beheaded two Innate Realm wizards."

Daoist Heihu nodded.

Both knew that with Xiao Zhan’s overwhelming combat power, known as the Great Tang War God, guarding the National Gate, he had the lives of more than ten innate powerhouses in his hands.

So in facing Xiao Zhan, they dared not act as they would with Yang the Third.

"No matter how strong, so what? We turned his son into a living dead, and he can’t even see it yet still shows us gratitude."

Tree Vine Immortal mocked.

"Senior brother is right. Once we thoroughly investigate, if Xiao Ran has no ties with the Demon Sect, we’ll return the Three Spirits to him; if he is truly with them, I’ll crush these Three Spirits, making him bedridden for life."

Daoist Heihu said.

"Don’t be hasty in destroying them; I’m sure the Emperor of the Great Tang will invite us again."

"Alright, then we’ll claim that upon returning, we studied meticulously and finally found the method. By then, wouldn’t Xiao Zhan be entirely in our grip?"

"Hahaha!"

The two laughed loudly inside the carriage.

Yang the Third, riding his horse alongside, slightly frowned; the conversation between Tree Vine Immortal and Daoist Heihu was all through transmitted sound, hence he had no clue of their content.

Nonetheless, Xiao Ran didn’t awaken tonight.

He had a feeling it was deliberate on their part.

Recalling the injury Xiao Zhan inflicted on him earlier, Yang the Third was only gloating, without intending to expose them, he was happy to see Xiao Zhan in pain and helpless.

"Uncle Xiao, I will go to the Holy Emperor with you to invite the Elder of Yun Gui Sect."

Han Dong said.

"Are you qualified?"

Xiao Zhan retorted.

"I..."

Han Dong was at a loss for words.

"My son became like this because of you, now his life is preserved but he’s still not awake. In the meantime, I want you to take care of him completely; when he wakes up, I want the first thing he sees to be you."

Xiao Zhan knew the feelings Xiao Ran had for Han Dong.

"No way, Dong’Er cannot serve Xiao Ran, I have warned him long ago, to not approach Dong’Er, he wouldn’t listen, and you didn’t guide him well."

Han Tieshan exclaimed in anger.

Letting Han Dong stay by Xiao Ran’s side day and night, how could that be? If word got out, how could Han Dong maintain his purity?

"Boom!"

Xiao Zhan was enraged.

He struck a palm towards Han Tieshan.

"Bang!"

Han Tieshan, aware of Xiao Zhan’s character, had anticipated this, and launched a defensive palm technique, summoning the power of heaven and earth, forming a whirlwind that wrapped around Xiao Zhan, and quickly distanced himself from Xiao Zhan.

Before Xiao Zhan could approach him, he shouted, "If you have the guts, find those who injured your son like this; that would truly be avenging your son!"

"I don’t need you to remind me!"

Xiao Zhan threw a punch.

Hitting Han Tieshan’s defensive fortress with all his might.

Han Tieshan couldn’t withstand it.

His body flew down from the mountaintop.

"Father!"

Han Dong cried out in shock.
