Chapter 1327: Father and Son
Editor: Atlas Studios
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What was the situation?
They had racked their brains and tried all kinds of methods to open the mechanism box, but it was opened by the little fellow with a light pat?
Ghostfear was the first to express disbelief, “I… I clearly used so much internal strength but I didn’t open it…”
Su Xiaoxiao said awkwardly, “Could it be that… we had been thinking too much? It can actually open with a pat?”
Ghostfear closed the box without a word!
Wei Ting’s eyelids twitched. “Brother, what if it was a coincidence just now and you can’t open it again? At least take out the things inside before trying!”
Ghostfear muttered, “Uh… I didn’t think too much about it.”
Wei Xiaobao looked at the mechanism box that suddenly closed again and frowned solemnly. “Woo!”
Ghostfear had never recovered from offending Wei Xiaobao.
Su Xiaoxiao tried to pat the mechanism box gently.
Click.
The mechanism box opened.
Everyone was speechless.
Wei Ting hurriedly took out the things inside. No matter how many times they could open it, as long as they could not open it again, all their previous efforts would be in vain.
Wei Xiaobao was only interested in the mechanism box.
Wei Qing closed it for her and she slapped it open. Wei Qing closed it for her again and she slapped it open again, enjoying it.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the obsidian on Wei Ting’s table and said, “It’s not the heirloom seal.”
Wei Ting narrowed his eyes and said, “It’s a dragon crystal, identical to the three dragon crystals in the martial arts competition. No, the bottom is slightly different, but it’s generally the same. I can tell that it’s a set of treasures.”
“The Xiahou family said that the dragon crystal is used for blessings, but why did they let you risk your lives to bring them down from the top of the mountain? I didn’t hear the Xiahou family say that they would build another dragon temple to worship the dragon crystals.”
Wei Qing had already learned about the martial arts competition in detail, including the different duel methods from previous years.
He said, “It’s more likely that the Xiahou family changed the final battle method to obtain the dragon crystals.”
Ghostfear disdained such actions. “Why didn’t the Xiahou family go themselves? Didn’t they say that there are a few more elders like Feng Wuchang in the City Lord Manor?”
Wei Qing said, “It’s risky. The higher the martial arts, the better.”
Su Xiaoxiao agreed.
The altitude was too high. There was no oxygen at the top of the mountain. No matter how high one’s level of attainment was in martial arts, there was a low chance of survival.
It was said that after the two disciples of the Assassin Alliance left the mountain, they were seriously hurt.
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin and said thoughtfully, “I keep feeling that the dragon crystals have other uses.”
Wei Qing said, “Perhaps it’s related to Emperor Wu’s tomb. Have you seen the other three dragon crystals of the Xiahou family?”
Wei Ting shook his head. “No. After we left the mountain, we immediately handed over the dragon crystals.”
At that time, he did not suspect the Xiahou family’s motives, so he did not draw them for his father to see.
Wei Qing looked at Wei Xiaobao, who was finally sleepy in his arms, and said softly, “Xiaoxiao, put away the dragon crystal first. We’ll think about it when Dad comes back.”
“Yeah.”
Su Xiaoxiao took the dragon crystal. “Speaking of which, Dad and Sixth Brother have set off for many days. I wonder if they found that island.”
–
On an isolated island.
After a month of searching and drifting, the Hundred Flowers Palace’s ship had docked again.
Everyone on the ship, including Wei Xu, was much tanned and their lips were cracked.
Wei Liulang stood on the deck and looked at the island. “Dad, this is the third island. It looks bigger than the first two and the mountain is very tall!”
The herbs they were looking for were on the cliffs. There had to be mountains. The two islands they had passed by previously did not have high mountains.
Wei Xu said, “Go down and take a look.”
The father and son alighted from the ship with the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace and anchored the ship.
After a short rest, Wei Xu left two disciples to guard while the others followed him to find herbs.
As Wei Liulang walked, he sighed. “That mountain seemed quite close on the ship. I didn’t expect to not reach it after walking for so long.”
Wei Xu observed his surroundings. “This island is very big.”
Wei Liulang quickly followed his father. “Will there be fishermen living on such a big island?”
Wei Xu said, “It’s hard to say.”
At this moment, a disciple behind him suddenly fell.
Wei Xu hurriedly stopped and turned to help him up.
Looking at his tired expression, Wei Xu said, “Little Six, carry Qianrong back to the ship.”
“Oh.”
Wei Liulang jumped down from the rock and squatted in front of this disciple called Qian Rong. He patted his shoulder. “Come up!”
Qian Rong hurriedly said, “There’s no need, Sixth Young Master. I can walk. I just slipped.”
Wei Liulang simply carried him on his shoulder and ran forward, afraid that he would not be able to catch up to his father if he was a step slower.
Wei Xu continued forward with the other five.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Wei Liulang caught up with them.
