"Qingyang... Master... this na sounds a bit familiar."
Wu Zhenglin thought for a mont, then slapped his forehead, "Didn't the old man ascend to immortality?"
Granny Wu glanced at Wu Zhenglin through the rearview mirror.
"Granny, I'll shut up," said Wu Zhenglin sheepishly, but he was obviously still curious.
"Yu Longting holds a grudge against Master Qingyang." I braced myself for Granny Wu to ignore
just like she did with Wu Zhenglin.
Granny Wu's expression softened, and she patiently explained, "It's not quite a grudge. Master Qingyang failed to ascend, and he cannot tolerate the existence of a True Dragon in this world."
"True Dragon... but none of us is a True Dragon..." Halfway through speaking, I bit my tongue and cursed myself inwardly for being a fool.
My finger brushed against the silver python on the cheongsam, and I said softly, "Could it be that by wearing this cheongsam, Yu Longting could have the potential to beco a True Dragon?"
If that were the case, this precious opportunity.
Why hasn't Yu Longting ever ntioned it to ? Doesn't he want to beco a True Dragon?
A cultivator who lacks ambition is no different from a salted fish.
"Miss Su Wan, you are the Spiritual Girl; by nourishing the Snake Lord, he is sure to beco a True Dragon," said Granny Wu seriously.
I didn't know what to ask Granny Wu at that mont.
I was profoundly shaken on the inside; could Yu Longting really beco a True Dragon because of ?
It felt like a cycle of samsara; my father killed him and cut off his path to becoming a True Dragon, but it might be possible for
to turn Yu Longting into a True Dragon!!
As we approached the Mass Burial Mound on the outskirts of the city, the distance was getting shorter.
I tried sending a ssage to Yu Longting.
Granny Wu glanced at it and said, "It's useless, there's no signal at the Snake Lord's cave abode."
"How la is that?" I grumbled.
As the car entered the area of the Mass Burial Mound, there were tombstones all around.
Suddenly, the sky darkened as if covered by an eclipse.
How weird!!
Just now it was a clear sky and broad daylight.
How did it suddenly beco night?
"Miss Su Wan, there's no need to be afraid, this is the Serpent Domain, it's very safe," Granny Wu had just finished saying it was very safe.
Wu Zhenglin hit the brakes hard and said, "Granny, you and your jinxing mouth."
"You little brat, how dare you talk to your grandmother like that~!" Granny Wu retorted.
I gazed at the white distant light in astonishnt.
The visibility around us was extrely low; it was pitch black, and I couldn't see my own hand in front of .
I could only see so of the scenery under the car lights at the edge of Mass Burial Mound.
At the end there was a Steles Forest that bore a distinct Buddhist essence.
We were just three or four ters away from entering the Steles Forest.
But I saw a person sitting on top of a huge black tombstone mounted on a stone Black Tortoise.
The person was bowing his head, cradling a golden sword with a dragon carved on it.
He wore a red brocade Taoist robe that was so fancy it didn't seem fitting for soone who practiced Taoism, with silver hair wildly flying in the night wind, and I could see his lips slightly raised.
Despite the white hair, the skin on his face and the rest of his body was so supple it seed one could squeeze water out of it.
You could call him a young man of twenty-eight and plenty would believe it.
"Darn it, Master Qingyang has beaten us here, blocking the entrance to the Steles Forest," Granny Wu muttered in annoyance.
I was stunned, "He... looks pretty young..."
From Granny Wu and Wu Zhenglin's earlier conversation about Master Qingyang, I had imagined an old man with a white beard.
"Isn't the Snake Lord quite young too? Master Qingyang is the greatest master of past and present; he's my idol," Wu Zhenglin muttered.
The mont Granny Wu opened the car door, the night wind poured in. "Wu Zhenglin, drive through to the Steles Forest, I'll go deal with Qingyang."
"Granny, Master Qingyang has been cultivating for five hundred years, how can you possibly fight him..." Before Wu Zhenglin could finish, Granny Wu's frail figure had already gotten out of the car.
Wu Zhenglin clenched his teeth, shut the door, and decided to risk it all, "Su Wan, I'll get you into the Steles Forest, then co back to pick up Granny."
Granny Wu faced danger alone, yet Wu Zhenglin chose to follow her wishes and take
to safety first.
But in my heart, I clearly understood, "Getting to the Steles Forest might not be so easy."
Wu Zhenglin stepped on the accelerator, intending to break through.
In the blink of an eye, the man sitting on the tombstone slowly lifted his head, a smile filled with chilliness, "A re Granny Mi dares to stop ?"
