C903 The Grandfather with Him
The team was resting in a forest. As the night fell, the students were sleeping around the bonfire. Meanwhile, Zhao Tianyun was on the tree, keeping an eye on his surroundings to prevent any danger from appearing. He could wake the students up as soon as possible.
However, Zhao Tianyun was going to sleep eventually. In the latter half of the night, he closed his eyes on the tree.
Just as Zhao Tianyun closed his eyes, Xiao Ming, who was beside the bonfire, got up quietly and headed for another forest.
When Xiao Ming arrived at the dark forest, he found that there was already a person waiting for him in front of him. It was Lee Zhuohua. When the team stopped, he had already quietly come out without being noticed by Zhao Tianyun.
"Lord Lee." Xiao Ming called out to Lee Zhuohua.
"You're here." Lee Zhuohua turned around and nodded at Xiao Ming.
"Sir, you can say it. I will agree to any condition, as long as you are willing to teach me how to cultivate." Xiao Ming's eyes revealed a stubborn look as he said.
Xiao Ming's gaze was something Lee Zhuohua did not expect. He did not know what Xiao Ming had gone through and why he was so eager to obtain strength.
"Before I state my conditions, can you tell me why you want to obtain power?" Lee Zhuohua asked with his hands behind his back.
When he heard Lee Zhuohua's question, Xiao Ming's face began to show a hint of anger. His fists, which were hidden in his sleeves, slowly clenched, and his knuckles turned white.
"Hmm?" Lee Zhuohua noticed the unusual situation on Xiao Ming's body and frowned.
"Plop!"
Xiao Ming immediately knelt in front of Lee Zhuohua. His head was lowered, and his figure seemed very stubborn.
"Sir, please teach me how to cultivate. My father was captured by a force called Spiritual Palace. They are very strong. I need strength to save my father." At this moment, Xiao Ming raised his head abruptly, and his eyes were full of determination.
"Actual Palace?" Lee Zhuohua was slightly stunned as he did not expect that Xiao Ming's father would be kidnapped.
It seemed like this was the treatment of a son of destiny. When Xiao Ming soared into the sky in the future, it would be the time for the spirit hall to be destroyed.
Thinking of this, Lee Zhuohua mourned for the Spiritual Palace.
"I see. My condition is very simple. Give me the ring in your hand and I will teach you how to cultivate." Lee Zhuohua nodded his head and his gaze swept across Xiao Ming's hand.
"Sir, you want this ring?" Xiao Ming did not expect that this would be Lee Zhuohua's condition, which surprised him. However, he did not immediately take off the ring, and a trace of hesitation appeared on his face.
"What? Don't want to?" Lee Zhuohua saw that Xiao Ming seemed to be a little hesitant, so he continued.
"No... I am willing." A trace of reluctance flashed across Xiao Ming's eyes as he took the ring off his finger.
Xiao Ming's eyes naturally couldn't hide from Lee Zhuohua's eyes. The reason he made this condition was that he found a spirit body in the storage ring, and this spirit body was currently feeding power to Xiao Ming.
Perhaps this was the reason why Xiao Ming's cultivation base had recovered, but Lee Zhuohua found out that the power that the spirit body was giving back to him was his own. This also meant that Xiao Ming's cultivation base had suddenly disappeared five years ago because of this ring.
Just as Xiao Ming handed over his ring.
"You're pissing me off. A rotten tree cannot be carved. Don't tell me you think I'm inferior to him? You have to know that I used to be a Dou Huang." A scolding voice suddenly sounded. Then, a translucent figure came out of the ring.
Lee Zhuohua looked at Lee Zhuohua with a flustered and exasperated expression. When Lee Zhuohua saw the sudden appearance of the spirit body, the corner of his mouth curled up.
Sure enough, everything went as he expected. According to the spirit, he should have been a Dou Huang. As for why he turned into a spirit in the ring, it might have been because he was being hunted down by his enemy.
The reason why he was able to absorb Xiao Ming's power was probably due to his severe injuries. The reason why he was giving Xiao Ming his power now was probably because he wanted to wait until Xiao Ming's cultivation improved so that he could take over Xiao Ming's body.
"Elder Ye, I..." Xiao Ming wanted to say something, but no words came out.
The reason why Xiao Ming's cultivation had recovered was because of this spirit body, but he didn't know that his cultivation had also disappeared because of this spirit body, so he felt a little guilty in his heart.
"I'm so angry. Who are you? Why are you snatching me away?" Elder Ye stared at Lee Zhuohua and said angrily.
"I just want to take him as my disciple, that's all. But he's different from you. You want to take over his body, right? Five years ago, his cultivation disappeared because of you, right?" Lee Zhuohua said with a low laugh.
"Elder Ye, what's going on?" When Xiao Ming heard Lee Zhuohua's words, he was stunned for a moment. After he reacted, he turned his head and looked at the spirit body.
"You! What a good idea. You actually saw through my thoughts. Heh, heh. When this guy picked up the ring, I was seriously injured, so I absorbed his power to heal my wounds. Although I have almost recovered all these years, my body has been destroyed, so..." Elder Ye said with a sneer.
With every word he spoke, Xiao Ming's heart grew colder and his face revealed a look of disbelief.
"So you want to occupy his body?" Lee Zhuohua finished the last part of his sentence for him.
"So what if I am? I didn't expect that you would ruin my plans. Originally, I wanted to wait for his cultivation to become a little stronger before taking action, but now, I can't care about that anymore." Elder Ye's eyes turned cold as he threw himself at Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming didn't even have time to react. He wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.
"Hur hur." Lee Zhuohua sneered, and his large hand grabbed forward. The distance of a few meters was covered in an instant, and he grabbed Elder Ye by the throat and pulled him back.
Xiao Ming, who found that he was not injured, looked at Elder Ye in Lee Zhuohua's hand with some lingering fear. Even now, he still couldn't believe that Elder Ye wanted to hurt him.
After Elder Ye was caught by Lee Zhuohua, he struggled for a while and wanted to break free, but Lee Zhuohua's strength was suppressing him, making him unable to resist at all.
At this moment, Elder Ye panicked. He had thought that Lee Zhuohua was just a A Strong Warrior Of The Fighting King and could not pose any threat to him, so he did not come out. It was only when Xiao Ming took the ring off that Elder Ye could not help but jump out.
His current cultivation base had basically recovered to the Dou Huang level, but he was still suppressed by Lee Zhuohua. The only thing he could think of right now was that Lee Zhuohua was the An Elite Dou Zong.
"That's impossible. You can't be..." Elder Ye stared at Lee Zhuohua.
There was no An Elite Dou Zong in the Chu Country, and all of them were gathered in the Central Continent. They wouldn't come to such a small place. That was why Elder Ye was so surprised.
