Nameless' eyes gleamed with embers of hope at the sight of the Great Marshal.
“Great Marshal, please save my son! I don't know what happened to him. He's now gravely injured.”
Seeing that it was the mynah that was wounded, Zeke's heart was finally at ease.
Nevertheless, he knew the mynah was of utmost importance to Nameless.
“I know nothing about veterinary, but I can prolong its lifespans using Ammo Needle,” he suggested.
“Sole Wolf, get the best veterinarian to treat Zippy right away.”
“Noted,” Sole Wolf replied before leaving to contact the veterinarian.
Meanwhile, Zeke got down to Ammo Needle to extend Zippy's life for eight hours.
“Nameless, who hurt Zippy?” he asked.
“I have no idea,” Nameless answered helplessly while shaking his head.
“I usually let Zippy wander freely. That's why I was not bothered when it left me this morning. When Zippy came back, it was already badly wounded.”
Missy came over and said tentatively, “Daddy, Zippy came back with this thing just now. I can feel this little thing giving off a unique aura.”
On her palm lay a crystal clear item.
Huh? What is this? It is giving off spiritual energy!
Zeke hurriedly picked it up from Missy's hand.
Sure enough, the crystal clear item was exuding faint spiritual energy.
“This... this is a thousand-year-old snow lotus! And it is freshly plucked from the plant. Oh, my God! I never expected there are still some thousand-year-old snow lotuses growing in this world,” Zeke said with much excitement.
What? A fresh thousand-year-old snow lotus?
Every warrior present went into an uproar.
The thousand-year-old snow lotus was a rare gem.
It was the most potent spiritual drugs.
Although it could not bring the dead back to life, it could save a life as long as the person was still breathing.
It was immeasurably precious to martial artists.
But thousand-year-old snow lotuses have become extinct centuries ago. Even if there were leftovers, they should be in the national treasury or in the hands of the Four Hidden Sects. Why is there still a freshly pluck snow lotus? Where is it growing then? Besides, This plant only thrives in stringent environmental conditions, which is why the plants had been extinct for many centuries.
Suddenly, Zeke thought of a question.
“Missy, how did you know Zippy was the one that brought back this thousand-year-old snow lotus?” he asked.
“I felt a unique aura falling from the sky just now. I glanced up and spotted Zippy. After it fell onto the ground, it spat something. Then I realized it was this item that was giving off the unique aura is from,” she answered.
Zeke was blown away. “It's the sensing capability! Missy, perhaps you have the sensing capability.”
The sensing capability!
The revelation enthused everyone present.
“Haha! Sensing capability! What a great honour for the martial arts world!”
“This is a blessing bestowed by God!”
“The Great Marshal is really exceptional that he has given birth to a daughter with the sensing capability.”
Missy was lost.
“Daddy, what is the sensing capability?”
Zeke squatted down to gaze into her eyes and explained patiently, “Sensing capability is an extraordinary physical attribute that can sense spiritual energy. Eurasia is vast, yet sparsely populated, so there might be rare plants growing in many secluded areas. Only people with the sensing capability can detect the spiritual energy from those plants and find them for the benefit of martial artists. Regrettably, over the past few decades, there are only a handful of people with this capability, if not none. Hence, numerous spiritual drugs remained hidden and undiscovered. After hundreds of years ago, there is finally someone with the sensing capability in Eurasia, which is you, Missy. You have a great responsibility on your shoulders from now on.”“
