”The Holy Maiden said that if she did not return, she would have to trouble Little Principal Chen to temporarily lead us.”
The female disciples of South Stream Temple seriously bowed to Chen Changsheng, their white dresses slightly drifting in the breeze.
”There's no need to worry. The Divine Empress regards her as her own daughter, and His Holiness, out of regard for you, won't do anything to her.”
After returning to the house, Tang Thirty-Six attempted to ease Chen Changsheng's anxiety.
Chen Changsheng truly did understand this reasoning, but why had Yourong given this sort of order to the South Stream Temple disciples before entering the Imperial Palace? Could it be that she knew that it would be very difficult for her to leave the Imperial Palace after entering? Why? What did she want to do in the Imperial Palace? Was she still in there?
He took the sheath from his waist and took out a suit of flexible armor. Throwing it in front of Tang Thirty-Six, he said, ”Remember to send this to Scholartree Manor for me. Give it to Wang Po.”
This flexible armor was covered in blood, as well as both deep and shallow sword slashes. There was also an extremely tiny sword hole. Only the ties of the armor were cut, so it should be easy to fix.
Su Moyu and Zhexiu did not know what this flexible armor was or why Chen Changsheng wanted to especially send it to Scholartree Manor and gift it to Wang Po.
The Tang clan was the wealthiest in the world, so Tang Thirty-Six's gaze was naturally different from others. Hearing the words 'Scholartree Manor' and 'Wang Po', he very quickly guessed at something.
”This is the Six Protections Divine Armor?” He picked up the flexible armor from the ground and looked at Chen Changsheng in shock.
Su Moyu and Zhexiu froze.
”Yeah, this was originally the Wang clan's, so it's best to return it to Wang Po. He will probably be very happy.”
Chen Changsheng then took out a bronze mirror and handed it over, saying, ”I don't know what this is, but it should be something good. If my guess isn't wrong, it should be able to control the Orthodoxy's power of light.”
This bronze mirror was probably the one Zhou Tong had prepared to deal with the Orthodoxy's Divine Staff. In the battle, it had not shown much use, but to remain undamaged under the Halving Blade made it rather interesting to him.
Tang Thirty-Six took the mirror and gasped, ”The Mirror of Pure Virtue?”
Chen Changsheng only knew that the Li Palace had a Hall of Pure Virtue, but he did not know that there was a bronze mirror in this world that shared the same name.
Zhexiu arched his brows and Su Moyu could no longer hold himself back. Walking over to Tang Thirty-Six, he took the mirror and used his sleeve to carefully wipe the blood off its surface.
”Is this mirror famous?” Chen Changsheng asked.
”You've never looked at the Tier of Legendary Weapons?” Tang Thirty-Six countered. ”Its position there is even higher than your Stainless Sword!”
Chen Changsheng was surprised, thinking, at the time when I was slashing down with a kitchen knife, I didn't see anything amazing about this mirror.
”Just what did you go there for? To kill Zhou Tong or to rob him?”
Tang Thirty-Six carried the Six Protections Divine Armor and walked up to him, quite perplexed. ”You only went for such a short amount of time, so how did you come back with two items on the Tier of Legendary Weapons?”
Chen Changsheng explained, ”These were all things Zhou Tong was carrying. When I was killing him, I just took them with me.”
In the following pause, Zhexiu and the other two all glanced at each other.
After learning that Chen Changsheng had gone to kill Zhou Tong, they were extremely shocked, but they didn't ask about too many of the details. This was because they had never believed that Chen Changsheng could really accomplish this task, and were even expecting for Chen Changsheng to soon after admit his defeat. But if he really was no match for Zhou Tong and relied on the protection of the Orthodoxy's powerful figures to return, how had he obtained these two treasures from Zhou Tong?
They turned to Chen Changsheng, awaiting his explanation. Chen Changsheng narrated what had occurred in the alley of the Northern Military Department, but he did not give many specific details.
”You actually won?” Tang Thirty-Six stared at him like he was a monster.
Chen Changsheng replied, ”Since what I was fighting for was life or death, victory or defeat has no meaning.”
Tang Thirty-Six said in shock, ”But in the end, you still won.”
Chen Changsheng ignored him, saying, ”See how to deal with this bronze mirror. If none of you want it, then it's fine to leave it in the Orthodox Academy as school property.”
Tang Thirty-Six was displeased at these words. ”A matter like last words is fine if you communicate just once, or is it that you insist on constantly reminding us that you're going to die soon?”
Chen Changsheng thought this over and then answered, ”These aren't last words, this is a question of inheritance.”
