Chapter 356 Ailao Mountain
"Congratulations to father on his great progress in cultivation! I hope he can soon break free from the mortal world and ascend to heaven!" After the compliments, the smile on Zhao Yunlong's face widened.
Although the compliment is tacky.
But it was very comfortable to hear.
"How's it going recently? The Wu family should have been removed from the list. I personally arranged for them to marry into the Wu family, but they dared to fool me~"
"And what about that naughty boy Zhao Linghuang? Ask him to come over! He's still too playful after all these years. This time I'm going to personally give him some enlightenment so that he can improve his cultivation, otherwise he'll get killed outside one day and I won't know what happened."
After practicing in seclusion in the room for several years, Zhao Yunlong was obviously eager to relax.
"The Wu family... they have some connection with the old man of the Yu family now, and the little girl of the Wu family is very close to a guy in the Tribulation Realm... it's difficult for us to take action for the time being... but please rest assured, old man, they are fish on the chopping board and we will eat them sooner or later~"
The Zhao family patriarch explained somewhat embarrassedly.
"Useless! Can't you even deal with the Wu family? Can a mere Tribulation Realm cultivator stop our Zhao family?" Zhao Yunlong cursed with some disdain.
To him, a cultivator in the Tribulation Realm was really not worthy of being on the stage.
Killing a person in the Mahayana stage is as easy as crushing an ant.
Even if there is a difference in combat power, they are just bigger ants.
"What about Zhao Linghuang? Even though this brat doesn't have much talent for cultivation, at least he can have some cultivation. Not to mention saving his life... at least he can live longer~" Zhao Yunlong stroked his white beard that had grown as long as a broom after not being trimmed for several years, and his tone softened a bit.
"this......"
The head of the Zhao family was a little frightened and didn't know what to say for a moment.
After all, Zhao Linghuang is the old man’s favorite grandson.
"Huh? What happened to my grandson? Did something happen?" Zhao Yunlong looked back with some confusion.
"Ling Huang...is already dead..."
As the words fell, the expression on Zhao Yunlong's face froze for a moment.
"Who did it? Doesn't he know that Zhao Linghuang is my grandson?" After a few seconds of silence, Zhao Yunlong asked with a frown.
"Old man, the one who killed Ling Huang was the guy who was very close to the Wu family! I have already investigated it clearly... He is now a teacher at the Fire Department College of Demon City Xiuxian University, and his cultivation level is perfect in the Tribulation Realm..."
"Old man, you have to avenge Ling Huang! These days, our Zhao family's reputation has been almost trampled under the feet of those aristocratic families..."
"Recently, they have begun to mention whether our Zhao family's ranking among the top ten families in Magic City should be adjusted..."
"He is just in the Tribulation Crossing Realm... You can solve the problem with just a wave of your hand, old man... We must get our Zhao family back!!!" The Zhao family's patriarch became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and he didn't even care about his tone.
Zhao Yunlong sighed after hearing this: "You are still so immature. I shouldn't have given you the position of the head of the family..."
"A mere Perfection of the Tribulation Realm? How dare you say such a thing?"
"There are only a few cultivators in the Tribulation Realm in the whole of China? Moreover, how dare you, an ant in the Nascent Soul Realm, say that?"
"Let him die and forget about it. Don't bother him anymore. The most important thing in cultivation is the state of mind. You don't need to care about anything other than the state of cultivation!"
"Even including family affection! Remember what I said, otherwise even if you are my son I will destroy your cultivation~" Zhao Yunlong said in a calm tone, words that made his son in front of him tremble with fear.
The matter of cultivation.
The further you go, the calmer you feel.
The old man is basically not tempted by external things in this state.
"Okay, no need to kneel. I'll give you one last chance to manage the family well. As for the one who is in the Tribulation Realm, I'll go meet him in person when I have time!"
Looking at his son's useless appearance, Zhao Yunlong sighed deeply, then waved his sleeves and walked out of the main hall.
On the other side, after casually flipping through the information about the secret realm of Ailao Mountain for a while, Luohou turned off the bracelet in boredom.
The only information that could be contained therein was information about danger, fog, etc.
According to historical records, Ailao Mountain was once the location of the mysterious Ailao Kingdom, also known as the "Dragon Kingdom".
Even before the revival of spiritual energy in Ailao Mountain, countless people had died mysteriously.
It is said that it is eerie and scary inside, with poisonous fog and insects everywhere that make people's backs chill.
Even during the day, it is difficult to see the sun, and the range of activities is limited to a small scenic area of 1600 meters.
The Ailao Mountains are covered with dense vegetation, poisonous forests, and floating mist and methane.
After the revival of spiritual energy, the primeval forest and uninhabited area inside are even more densely populated and the terrain is complex.
It is hard to imagine what the forest looks like if one has never been there.
Visibility in the forest is extremely low.
The visual range is less than 2 meters!
Not to mention the ferocious beasts and spiritual beasts, there are even horrible zombies that appear when the bodies of dead monks fall into the extremely dark land.
“The zombies are here, but I just don’t know if these so-called zombies can withstand the power of the nine-fold thunder tribulation~~” Luo Hou recalled the most classic Mr. Zombie movie with great interest.
I was young and ignorant at that time and I only remember that the most powerful Taoist priest was the eldest brother of Maoshan, Shi Jian, who rubbed the heavenly thunder with his hands.
Now he is slowly making the transition and has actually become a powerful person who can thwart thunder disasters with his own hands.
A few days had passed since the end of the black market transactions, and Luohou's life had been quite stable, attending classes, fishing and guiding students every day.
During this period, Luohou also used the ability of the natural Sen Sen fruit to help Luo Shui catalyze a seed.
However, what surprised him was that after being catalyzed by the power of the devil fruit, the growth rate of this seed was still abnormally slow.
It took Luohou just over ten minutes to grow it from a seed into a snow-white sapling less than one meter tall.
Although using the power of the devil fruit to continue catalyzing will definitely allow the saplings to grow rapidly and even bear fruit directly.
But Luohu did not waste time on this.
.....
On Sunday, at eight o'clock in the morning, the originally peaceful campus cultivation life was suddenly disrupted by the roar of a generator.
Rows of camouflaged military vehicles drove into the campus in an orderly manner and finally stopped directly in front of the teacher's dormitory where Luo Hou was.
When Luohou walked out of the dormitory, the door of the military jeep opened quickly with a click.
Jiang Ningning, a military star, did not hesitate at all. The moment he got out of the car, he raised his hand and saluted.
"Comrade Lieutenant General, our superiors have ordered us to go to the Ailao Mountain Secret Territory before 12:00 today to carry out regional stability maintenance operations. You are the commander-in-chief of this mission."
