"Ling Yi, you're Shanshan's boyfriend, so from now on you'll have to protect your Second Grandpa too!" Song Xianghua laughed along with the others. "I'm retiring and heading home. If the Overseas Cultivators' Association comes looking for me in the future, you'll have to shield me a bit."
"No problem at all!" Wei Zhao nodded.
"Haha, Shanshan, this boyfriend of yours is really something. He's your good fortune—and the Song family's good fortune too!" Song Xianghua teased with a smile.
"Second Grandpa..." Qiu Lingshan blushed slightly, though she looked rather pleased with herself.
"Lingshan, you all clean up the battlefield first. I'm going to rest a while. And these corpses—don't dispose of them just yet," Wei Zhao said.
"Understood." Qiu Lingshan nodded quickly. She knew as well that Wei Zhao had only just broken through and would need to consolidate his strength.
Wei Zhao beckoned to Xiao Yi and led him back to the Song family's guest room.
Once inside, Wei Zhao shut the door, then waved his hand and drew Xiao Yi into the jade pendant space! At this moment Xiao Yi existed in a very strange state—not a living person, yet not exactly a dead one either.
That was why Wei Zhao's jade pendant space had no restrictions on entry.
"Senior Ghost, what was going on with you today? It's one thing that you couldn't use Xiao Yi's Heaven-rank divine weapons, but why didn't you unleash any martial techniques?" Wei Zhao asked with a somewhat puzzled, bitter smile.
One might say today had been a comedy of errors. If the ghost thing could have used martial techniques or Heaven-rank divine weapons, the battle today would never have dragged on so long! But by the same token, Wei Zhao would never have had the chance to break through!
"Hmph. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!" Xiao Yi, possessed by a sliver of the ghost thing's primal spirit, snorted coldly. "This puppet is too inferior. There's no way to unleash my martial techniques! His constitution won't allow it!"
"Ah?" Wei Zhao was stunned. In the entire cultivation world, Xiao Yi counted as a top-tier existence. Even if he couldn't match Wei Zhao, he was still a disciple of the Five Luminaries Sect, and his overall strength was a cut above other cultivators at the peak of the late Heaven rank who had achieved Great Perfection. And yet the ghost thing called him inferior—too inferior. It left Wei Zhao deeply frustrated. Just how powerful must the ghost thing's true body be?
"All right, then what about those other late Heaven-rank Great Perfection experts? Do you need me to turn them into puppets or something?" Wei Zhao asked.
"Useless. Throw them away. Making one puppet already cost me no small amount of primal spirit. I've barely recovered a bit of my primal spirit power—I've no intention of wasting it!" the ghost thing said impatiently. "Enough. Don't disturb this old man. I'm going into dormancy!"
"Fine..." Wei Zhao had no choice but to nod in agreement.
The ghost thing fell silent. Wei Zhao, too, began circulating the third layer of the Xuanyuan Dragon Taming Art and started consolidating his strength. He had only broken through today, so he did not yet attempt to unleash his martial techniques. It would be easier to succeed once his strength had settled.
Since the Song family's troubles had been resolved, Wei Zhao felt at ease while consolidating his strength. He needn't worry about any sudden incidents—at least for the next few days, things would be peaceful!
Even if the mastermind behind those men discovered that the four Fire Wolf War Gods had lost contact and tried to find them, it would inevitably be days before anyone came!
Wei Zhao rapidly and ceaselessly circulated the mental cultivation formulas, intending to consolidate his strength as quickly as possible. Because he still held great expectations for the twelfth stance of the Frenzied Fire Eight Trigrams Palm!
