Li Gang said pitifully. "I was poisoned when I was very little. I don't know what poison it was, but I remember father saying one of it's component was Purification Fern. It not only degraded my talent, but also destroyed my Spiritual Imprint. Initially, I possessed Grade A talent, but now I am reduced to Grade D!"
"I just want to know, is there a way to at least increase my talent?"
Jiang Wushuang looked at him and understood. 'So that's why he had so high Secret Techniques accomplishment. Without Spiritual Imprint, it is really difficult for him to improve. I don't think he can increase his Cultivation anymore. Rank 3 early stage is probably his limit!'
Jiang Wushuang sighed and said. "I am sorry, but I don't have any methods to increase your talent. Although I do know a way to let you gain an artificial Spiritual Imprint. In the Western Continent, there is a sect called Wonderous Sect. They possess a secret technique that allows them to steal other's Spiritual Imprint and engrave on their own soul. In fact, they even possess methods to increase the Upper Limit of the Spiritual Imprint."
Li Gang immediately memorized this name: Wonderous Sect
Li Gang looked at him and asked. "Is there no one who knows how to increase the talent?"
Jiang Wushuang thought about it and said. "Those Celestial Sect higher ups might know about it. They are the strongest sect in the world, with a history of millions of years. So, they should know about it!"
Li Gang nodded and requested again. "Can you send me to Central Continent, I would repay your grace right away!"
Jiang Wushuang felt guilty. 'He didn't gain anything, but still wish to repay me. He is worth entrusting.'
He asked. "Are you sure you want to go?"
Li Gang nodded firmly.
Jiang Wushuang laughed. "Good good."
He took out a token and a sword and said. "This is a transportation token I created with my Spatial understanding. As long as you have sufficient Spirit Stones, and have been to the place you are going to, you can use this token to travel anywhere! I don't have anything else to give you. So, take it as part of my inheritance to you. And also take this Sword, I hope you can take this Sword back to the Sword Gate and return it to them. This can make up for my biggest regret. Do you want to go right now, or leave some words for your family?"
Li Gang thought about his mother, he said. "Let me speak to them."
Jiang Wushuang nodded and motioned his hand. The barrier instantly shattered.
Li Gang went to Li Yuxong and said. "Tell mother, I am going somewhere far away. Don't worry about me. Within 10 years, she will be able to hear me safe and sound. This is my promise."
Then he looked at Wang Xueyao and came to her. He said. "Let's talk"
Wang Xueyao nodded. She went with him alone.
"Can you help me take care of Tranquil Vale Village?"
Wang Xueyao said. "You are asking this to me, someone who just tried to kill you?"
Li Gang sighed. "I have no other option. Initially, I schemed against Huang Ling, so that I can use power behind her to protect my family when I leave this place. Even though I didn't know if I can leave so quickly. I thought of leaving as soon as I return!"
"Spirit Dragon faction might attack us, I know Huang Ling will help, but I have to be prepared for unforeseen circumstances. I can only trust you. Even though you tried to kill me, I am sure, you were just testing me."
Wang Xueyao looked at him and nodded. "Okay, but this promise is limited to 10 years only. After this I am no longer responsible for it."
"It is more than enough." Li Gang smiled.
Li Gang suddenly thought of something, take out a sword and asked. "Can you tell me the grade of this Sword?"
Wang Xueyao was surprised. "This is peak Grade 8 treasure! Did that old geezer gave you?"
Li Gang nodded and smiled meaningfully. "He entrusted me to return it to Sword Gate."
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
Wang Xueyao laughed, as if she heard some kind of joke. "He entrusted you? It seems even he fell for your trap. He is just a soul, no matter how smart he was when he was alive, his current intelligence isn't that high like those Kings and Monarch."
Wang Xueyao looked at him and said deeply. "You did well, I hope we can be ally in the future."
Li Gang looked at her and smiled. "When I become strong enough, I will come back and marry you."
She looked at him with disdain and teased him. "You have to surpass me if you want to obtain me..." She paused and as if thinking something, she suddenly asked. "Why did you manipulated them to fight among themselves? In this Inheritance all those seems to be pointless!"
Li Gang looked at her and said. "It may be pointless to you but not me. If I hadn't done that, then even if Yuxong won this Inheritance, they would have forcefully snatched it back. There is also a situation, where they might take it out on our family. And, there is one more reason, I didn't know what kind of Inheritance was going to take place and I was not sure if I would win the inheritance. So, I decreased the competition from the beginning, and I also got various benefits by looting those 4 factions like Spirit stone, all kinds of Spiritual plants and treasures. After you, I am probably the richest here. You can see, they were not pointless. When you people leave this place, you will see, they won't dare to attack you."
Wang Xueyao nodded.
Li Gang looked at her. "Thank you."
Saying that, he left without looking back. Wang Xueyao looked at him leaving and smiled. "Be proud, you are worth being my ally!"
Li Gang paused, and then left without speaking anymore. But as he was walking, he saw someone in front of him, waiting for him to arrive.
"Big brother..." Li Yuxong had complex emotions. He already got to know everything happened from Huang Ling, but he still couldn't accept the fact that he was almost killed by his own brother.
Li Gang looked at him and smiled. "You came at right time. Give me that sword scroll..." But, Huang Ling interfered immediately.
"Don't push your luck."
Li Gang looked at her and laughed. He still said shamelessly. "I just want to take a look, with your presence, you are still afraid I would steal it?"
Huang Ling narrowed her eyes, but Li Yuxong stopped her and handed the scroll.
Li Gang looked at it and started reading it's content. It was quite large and took him over 5 minutes to read the whole content.
Li Gang looked at it with surprised face. "It seems my memory has improved, with just one glance, I can remember the whole thing!"
Huang Ling looked at him with disdain. "Do you forget, your Soul Cultivation has reached Rank 5 mid stage!"
Li Gang nodded and thought about it. 'Even before, I was able to memorize large contents, but I was just a human, and a human can't be perfect in every aspect. If it were before, it would have taken me an hour to memorize such contents, and I may have made mistakes in some words. It seems Cultivation not only effect thinking speed but also memorization. I have to be vary of those old monsters.'
Li Gang has always sharpened his mind. When he was just at the age of 10, he was able to calculate 20 move ahead in the Chess, and could do calculations of multiple 15 digit numbers in a few moments! Even before he was reborn, he was a genius in mathematics, and could easily do calculations of 5 digit numbers in few moments. But, after his Soul Cultivation increased, now he can do the same for 30 digit numbers. This is the difference between a Warriors thinking speed and a Mortal's thinking speed!
He thought for a moment, and took out a paper and wrote something, then handed it to Li Yuxong along with the scroll. "Take this, and give it to mother when you return."
He, then looked at Jiang Wushuang who was standing nearby and said. "You can send me now."
Jiang Wushuang nodded and said. "I will send you to a periphery of Sword Gate. From there, you will be on your own!"
Li Gang nodded.
Jiang Wushuang utilised his Spatial Power, and opened a portal. He said. "Go fast, I can only maintain it for 10 seconds."
Li Gang acted fast and entered it immediately. He soon came out of the portal, but the place he fell was a forest. "It's good place to land. At least no one saw me."
"This time, the gain was huge. As for returning the Sword, dream!"
Li Gang laughed loudly.
---------------------------------------------------------------
At the same time, the Inheritance came to an end in Southern Continent.
Everyone came out one by one. But all those Jade Harbor factions face turned ugly as they looked at those who returned.
Long Chang looked at Long Yifan and asked, "What happened? Where are others?"
Long Yifan's face turned ugly. He replied. "They all died."
Long Chang looked at him and was shocked. "What happened, tell me in detail. Who did it?"
Long Yifan turned to look at Huang Ling, and said. "Let's return, we will explain later."
Wang Xueyao looked at them and smiled. 'They really didn't attack. It must be because they are unclear of Shadow Phoenix faction's relation with Azure faction. And as for Shadow Phoenix faction, Huang Ling should have stopped them.'
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ren Ying's deeds were completely suppressed by the 4 major power of Jade Harbor City. And, they also put him on a must kill list, but sadly, no one knows where he went.
His name became their biggest shame, that they can only hide.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Azure Mountain, Tranquil Vale Village, Li family Mansion
Song Yunlan looked at Li Yuxong and asked nervously. "Tell me where is Gang-er?" Li Minghui who was also near, looked at Li Yuxong, waiting for his reply. Even though his face had no changes, his heart was anxious.
Li Yuxong replied. "Don't worry mother, he just went to Central Continent to complete the wish of the Monarch. He had left a letter for you."
Li Yuxong took out a letter and handed it to her.
Song Yunlan quickly grabbed the letter and started reading it. Li Minghui sighed in relief after hearing him say so.
"Mother, I am going to Central Continent.
You remember? I told you, I want to become someone you can be proud of! I know you are worried about me, so, I will make my name resound in all the 5 regions soon. I have already found a way to increase my potential. So, I don't want to miss my chances.
Remember this name: Zhang Hao."
Song Yunlan smiled. "I will wait for you."
