Chapter 391 Vanished in an instant
"Yes, although this little guy is greedy, his contributions in the Tiannan Cave are probably second only to Lu Hao. After all, he blew up the royal city, lured away two ninth-rank cultivators, and brought back the remains of Grandmaster Yang, and rescued two eighth-rank golden bodies. These are all real achievements."
Nan Yunyue smiled.
"Let's wait and see. Maybe Fang Ping is also a chosen one of the times, with some great potential to turn bad luck into good."
Are you talking about yourself?
Zhang Tao chuckled and said, "We'll have to go back there sooner or later. After all these years, we need to find out what's going on with that demonic plant."
"You go and heal your wounds first. I'll have a chat with Lu Hao," Zhang Tao said.
"Alright, remember to keep an eye on Zhenxing City. They suffered heavy losses there this time, more than on the main battlefield—"
Nan Yunyue didn't continue speaking, and Zhang Tao knew that too.
After all, a Grandmaster died in Zhenxing City, and in the end, a few Rank 6 cultivators got the benefits.
After Nan Yunyue left, Zhang Tao turned his attention to Lu Hao and asked with a serious expression, "Your combat strength—are there any potential problems?"
After all, in Zhang Tao's opinion, Lu Hao's combat power had increased too much after his trip to the restricted area. Perhaps those old-timers had added something to him again.
"It's alright, don't worry. I know my own situation. I'm not walking an ordinary path, it's the path of slaughter. The more people I kill, the faster I'll improve."
"The Path of Slaughter?" Zhang Tao's furrowed brows relaxed somewhat.
"If this were peacetime, I would definitely put it out, but now—"
Lu Hao said with a smile, "Right now, as long as it brings improvement, it doesn't matter which path we take. After all, a great battle is coming soon, and if we lose, we'll have nothing left."
"Could you promote your path of slaughter to some smaller branches and let those military personnel try it out? If they could have half, or even a fifth, of your combat power, that would be incredibly powerful."
"I'm afraid not. I stumbled upon this purest path of slaughter by accident. For others, even a similar path would be very difficult, and they might even get lost in the slaughter itself."
Lu Hao said that this was not something he made up, but something he learned from the Killing Seed. After all, the Killing Seed was a powerful figure in the path of killing, so he naturally knew about the situation of the path of killing.
"Alright, by the way, what's the situation with Fang Ping and the others, especially Fang Ping? The others could all more or less see the traces of a resurrected martial artist, but that kid—"
Zhang Tao had expected this; he had only asked casually. After all, it would be truly incredible if such combat power could be promoted.
"Fang Ping—he's fine. There's some scheming behind him, but it's not a bad thing. He's wholeheartedly devoted to humanity, so you don't need to worry too much about him. As for Wang Jinyang, Li Hansong, and Yao Chengjun, these three are indeed resurrected martial artists. They're from the same group. There should have been another group of resurrected martial artists in Zhenxing City before, right?" Lu Hao asked.
"Yes, there were a dozen or twenty in the previous batch, but it's been several years. That's why I didn't think Wang Jinyang and the others were resurrected martial artists at first. I initially thought they were mutated, until they started to show their immortal matter and I realized they were like resurrected martial artists."
Zhang Tao said.
"That's it. These three are special, and their situation is naturally incomparable to ordinary people. Their improvement will not slow down. But you don't need to worry. Even if the three of them have regained some memories, they are still mainly human. So there is no need to guard against the coming trend of the era. That's why they have all stood out. Otherwise, how could so many geniuses emerge in peacetime? The Golden Age is also the time of decisive battle."
Lu Hao explained.
"I feel much more at ease with you here. Also, what's the situation with Qin Fengqing? He hasn't undergone any mutations, yet he's able to keep up with their progress?"
Zhang Tao nodded and continued to ask.
"Qin Fengqing—he has great fortune. Although he hasn't experienced any major changes, he has a heart that dares to fight and is ruthless. You don't need to worry too much. They are all on the side of humanity and are all the pride of humanity. Nothing unexpected will happen to them."
Zhang Tao nodded. Since Lu Hao said that everyone was trustworthy, he stopped worrying about it.
"By the way, this time when you were in Tiannan, Fang Ping and the others really didn't bring out the remains of the Yang family's top expert. If they had, we can't hide it at all."
"No, they're still in the boundary territory. Even if a top expert goes outside, they can still see. They only managed to get some benefits outside this time. If they really go in, it won't be so easy for them to come out—"
"Alas—the pinnacle of the Yang family—I actually understand his choice, and I can also understand the choices of the other patriarchs of Zhenxing City."
After all, there has been no progress for a century, so naturally people want to try their luck in the realm of the boundary. But hundreds of years have passed, can't we really wait any longer?
At that critical moment, you rashly entered the boundary territory—Lu Hao, do you know how disappointed I was that day!
Centuries of immense achievements, reduced to nothing in a single day!
Zhang Tao said it in a somewhat complicated way.
Lu Hao knew this wasn't the ultimate choice of the Yang family, but rather that the King of Zhen Tian had seen that he had already betrayed them, so he used his spiritual power to tempt him to go to the Boundary Land to seek death. "Sitting guarding Yuhai Mountain for hundreds of years! What kind of merit is that? I, Zhang Tao, am ashamed of my inferiority. I know that I cannot do it, nor dare I be ranked with him."
Why not persevere? If you had persisted for a few more years, just a few more years would have been enough to ensure humanity's ultimate defeat. I have nothing to say about Yang Laozu's choice.
His death in the boundary lands is the end of it, but the entire Tiannan Cavern lost tens of thousands of disciples because of him. It would have been better if he had been informed beforehand. In the end, he was branded with a crime—”
Zhang Tao shook his head and sighed, without saying anything more.
"By the way, what do you think about sending these kids to the Battlegrounds of Kings?"
"Sure, let them go and feast on the underground resources. They all have good fortune, so they generally won't have any problems. There's also a lot of stuff in the King's Battleground."
"You got your sourceless energy from the Battlegrounds, right?" Zhang Tao asked. "Yes, it came from the Battlegrounds. I went in there once and looted a lot of things."
Lu Hao said, "I guessed it. After all, you had quite a lot of haul last time. There aren't that many good things anywhere else." Zhang Tao said with a smile.
"These life essences are yours now. Distribute them as soon as possible. It's better to use them than to keep them. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
As Lu Hao spoke, he took out 100 jin of life essence from his storage space. This stuff was useless to him, so it was better to let Zhang Tao distribute it, which would also reduce casualties.
"I thank you for the warriors fighting on the front lines," Zhang Tao said, giving Lu Hao a martial arts salute.
Lu Hao returned the martial arts salute, and seeing that Zhang Tao had nothing else to do, he left and returned to the camp.
