Chapter 172: Chapter 139: The Gift from the Mountain God and the Monarch
Translator: 549690339
“His name is Wan Li!”
The Eastern Sovereign who easily collected the giant skeleton handed the jade belt to Feng Qing’an. As Feng Qing’an took the belt, he suddenly said.
“Wan Li?!”
There was both confusion and surprise in Feng Qing’an’s eyes,
“Is that the name of the giant?”
“Yes, he possessed the bloodline of the Dragon Uncle Country, but he was too young and died before he came of age. If given enough time to reach adulthood and fully revive the bloodline of the Dragon Uncle Country, no one can take him down easily unless the Immortal Monarch makes a move!”
Feng Qing’an instantly fell silent. The Eastern Sovereign was so clear about the giant’s origin, which revealed a lot of information. At least this ancient battlefield site that had survived countless ages suddenly had a myriad of connections with the Eastern Sovereign.
“Are you very familiar with this giant?”
Feng Qing’an carefully chose his words and asked.
“Wan Li watched me grow up, and he also watched Nan Ge grow up. In the end, I witnessed the luminance ground from Wan Li as he fell in the most tragic way!”
Although the Eastern Sovereign spoke calmly, Feng Qing’an could feel the anger that had accumulated since ages long past. Youyou had told him before…
When the giant was killed, he endured extreme pain. So much so that his enemies did not bother to take his remains after his death, as there was no value left in them.
While Youyou was explaining this, the Eastern Sovereign was nearby, without uttering a word, as if she had nothing to do with it. But now she suddenly reveals that this giant is an elder who watched her grow up.
It seems that both the Eastern Sovereign and Nan Ge were from the same era as the giant, whose remains have turned into rocks. The time when these sisters were born might be much earlier than he had thought.
“Then why didn’t you stop me?”
Clutching the jade belt in his hand, Feng Qing’an’s face appeared complex. Although he had bestowed the spirit, he respected the past of the giant whose skeleton he climbed on every night.
“If you can resurrect Wan Li, wouldn’t that be a good thing? What reason do I have to stop you?”
“Even if I can resurrect Wan Li, I’m afraid that it’s not the elder who watched you sisters grow up that will come back to life!”
“It doesn’t matter, as long as he is resurrected. The giant elder that I remember has already fallen. I only hope that when you resurrect his remains, you can call him Wan Li and continue to carry this name!”
“Alright. If I can truly resurrect the giant, I will call him Wan Li and let him…”
“That’s enough!”
Eastern Sovereign interrupted what Feng Qing’an was about to say, staring at him with a particularly serious and earnest expression,
“Just inheriting the name is enough, he doesn’t need to shoulder everything else. From the moment he is resurrected, he merely shares the same body and name with the giant elder that I know. He will be a new spirit and does not need to bear anything. All of that is too superfluous!”
“Fair enough!”
Feng Qing’an stared at the Eastern Sovereign for a moment, then immediately agreed.
“Is there anything else you need my help with?”
“Not at all!”
Feng Qing’an shook his head. He had collected the Burning Sun Tree and brought the giant skeleton with him. Upon his return, he would pack up the books his elder brother had left him.
“And yes, after taking the County Exam and before progressing to the Prefecture Exam, return Black Mountain to me. I will take it to Prefecture City!”
Although Black Mountain wasn’t yet a powerful demon, it was very close. Even an ordinary demon might not be able to defeat Black Mountain at this stage, especially since it was also undergoing a unique method similar to Nine Refinement(in Chinese, Jiu Lian), and the progress was not inferior.
“Sure!”
Eastern Sovereign agreed, since originally she had only trained this Ghost Wolf, who was not impressive in her eyes, because of Feng Qing’an. Now, he seemed to have achieved some results.
“Does that chicken need to be brought back too?”
“No need, you keep rearing that chicken. I can’t find such big bugs for it to eat in the human realm!”
“Alright!”
The sovereign of the Ghost Country casually agreed, then added,
“I’m preparing a treasure for you. By the time you go to the Prefecture City, it should be ready. I’ll have Youyou deliver it to you then!”
“What did you prepare for me?”
Feng Qing’an’s eyes lit up as he asked, curious and anticipating. The Eastern Sovereign’s gifts were never inferior.
“It’s not finished yet, you’ll find out when the time comes!”
However, the dignified sovereign was teasing him at this moment. Knowing that insistence was futile, Feng Qing’an could only watch the Eastern Sovereign leave. The Eastern Sovereign came this time at his request, so she didn’t bring Youyou along.
Besides, to most ghosts in the Ghost Nation, the Undead Nether Phoenix’s presence signified that their sovereign was around too. “Feng Qing’an, let’s go back to the human realm!”
“Alright”
Now that the Burning Sun Tree and the giant skeleton were no longer here, both having been put in his belt, there was no need to stick around here.
It wasn’t until he got the belt that Feng Qing’an collected these two things because he didn’t want to bother. The belt contained a desolate space isolated from the outside world. Although living things could survive there, it required regular replenishment of substances..
