836 Mysterious Black Shadow (2/2)
Mo Wen looked up. The golden light in his eyes had disappeared.
The black shadow that had saved them all was the Black Gold Puppet that Mo Wen had stored in his medicine spiritual ring. The Black Gold Puppet had a combat ability that was akin to that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Besides, it had pure spiritual energy and could wield spiritual treasures as it wished. Its combat ability was above that of an ordinary first realm Martial Arts Grandmaster.
”We will talk about this later. Let's get back to the sect quickly,” Yun Pengqing said decisively. They could not stay here for long. It was impossible to tell whether any other parties might be after them.
With a wave of his hand, the Blue Silk Cloud Net flew into his hand. The Blue Silk Cloud Net was an important treasure—a legendary spiritual weapon. Just now, instead of taking the net, the mysterious man had left it to them.
Wang He stared at the Blue Silk Cloud Net with a complicated gaze. He felt like they had hit the jackpot. Not only had they survived, but they had also acquired an important treasure.
The team started moving again, heading straight back to the Five Tigers Sect. Once they reached the sect, Yun Pengqing ordered them not to utter a word about what happened today. Then, he went to the main hall of the sect with Wang He.
For Mo Wen, this incident was merely an interlude. His life returned to normal again, with him healing quietly.
Wan'er and Wang Qian's lives also returned to normal.
Two days later, Mo Wen went to the branch of the Huatian Palace again and received ten Dragon City Talismans from Lu Chuan.
The Martial Arts Circle Convention was approaching and Mo Wen's injuries were getting better. He decided to leave the Five Tigers Sect and look for a secluded place to complete the final part of his treatment.
The treatment method was risky, and he could not be disturbed by anyone. He planned to find a cave hidden deep in the mountains and stay there until the day before the Martial Arts Circle Convention.
One morning, Wan'er woke up early to get ready. Even though now she no longer needed to gather medicinal herbs every day, she still woke early.
”Huh? What's that?”
Suddenly, she noticed that something was pinned on the table. As she approached the table curiously, she saw two shiny sheets of silver paper placed under a small rock. There were many exquisite patterns printed on the rectangular-shaped pieces of paper. There even seemed to be a few mysterious runes leaping on and off them.
She thought her eyes had deceived her; however, upon taking a closer look, there were still runes visible on the paper. Clearly she was not hallucinating.
She lifted up the two pieces of paper curiously and two calligraphic characters appeared before her.
Dragon City!
”Could these be the legendary Dragon City Talismans?”
Wan'er's eyes were wide open as she stared at the talismans in her hands in disbelief. Even though she had never seen a Dragon City Talisman before, she had heard about them from others.
”Sister Wang Qian, quickly get up. Get up quickly!”
Wan'er dashed to Wang Qian's bedside and tried to wake her by pulling her arm.
”Wan'er, what are you doing? Why are you disturbing my sleep so early in the morning? Let me sleep for a little while longer…” Wang Qian said in a daze, her eyes still half-shut.
”Sister Wang Qian, I have discovered two Dragon City Talismans. Quick, have a look and tell me whether I am right,” Wan'er shouted into Wang Qian's ear.
”What?!”
Wang Qian was instantly wide awake. She got up from her bed nimbly, taking the silver talismans from Wan'er's hand. Only after she had examined the papers closely a few times did she ask with a trembling voice, ”Wan'er, where did you get these?”
Wang Qian's hand, which was holding the Dragon City Talismans, was shaking continuously. Her body shivered uncontrollably too. These were the Dragon City Talismans which could cause countless bloodshed in the martial arts circle! And there were two of them!
”They were placed on our table. I noticed them when I woke up. I have no idea where they came from. Are they really Dragon City Talismans?” Wan'er asked curiously.
”I am certain of it. I have seen a sample of the Dragon City Talisman.” Wang Qian nodded her head conclusively.
”Why would these appear on our desk?” Wang Qian felt that there were more and more bizarre things happening around her recently. Why would the Dragon City Talismans suddenly appear in their house? Such a free lunch had actually fallen into their hands!
”Sister Wang Qian, I feel like someone might have given these to us as a present. Look, there are two Dragon City Talismans. Doesn't it mean that each of us gets one?” Wan'er said, analyzing the situation.
Nothing more, nothing less. There were exactly two Dragon City Talismans. The meaning of it was obvious.
