C7 A Mysterious Jade Pendant

It's late.

Only the old man's study was still lit.

"Grandfather. " Zuo Mao walked to the door and knocked.

"Mao, come in. " The old man's voice was heard.

Zuo Mao opened the door and walked in.

The old tutor was lying on his armchair. When he saw Zuo Mao enter, he sat up from his chair.

"I heard you caught a group of people from the Lau family in the afternoon, and that Lau Hua?" The old man said with a smile.

"That Lau Hua is too arrogant. He brought a group of people and rushed into our Zuo family's market city, which is disadvantageous to me. If it wasn't for Xu Liu's timely arrival, I might have died there. " Zuo Mao said helplessly.

"Lau family has always been like this. Those who don't know about it will think that Cloud City is his sole power. Today, you can ask Xu Liu to cripple those people before sending them back. Even the Lau family wouldn't dare to say anything. After all, we are in the right. " The old man said in a light tone.

"I still can't do it. " Zuo Mao shook his head.

"That's enough. It's best that you and Qing'er are fine. If anything happens, I will destroy the Lau family. " The old man coldly harrumphed. His killing intent was extremely strong.

Zuo Mao felt a warmth in his heart.

"Mao'er, I never dreamed that you were born with full spirit energy. Today, you have really given me a big surprise. " The old man smiled.

"Being born with full spirit energy represents your incomparable talent, and it also means that you've directly stepped into the ninth level of Spirit Calming, and will soon become a one-star Soul Personage"

"Those who step into the Soul Realm need to find their own Natal Beast Spirit This is very important " The old man said slowly.

"How do we obtain the natal beast spirit?" Zuo Mao asked curiously.

"Use the blood essence of the Devil Beast to refine it. That Devil Beast will become your natal beast spirit. "

"After obtaining your Natal Beast Spirit, every major realm you advance in will awaken a beast soul skill. A beast soul skill comes from your beast spirit. The stronger the awakened beast spirit, the more powerful the soul skill will be. "

Zuo Mao nodded. Ms Qing'er had told him about this before.

"The beast soul skill is the most important attacking method for every cultivator. It is a soul skill derived from the natal beast spirit and is the most suitable to be used. Of course, you can also choose other soul skills. Soul skills can be learned by anyone, but beast soul skills can only be used by oneself. " The old man said.

"There are strong and weak beast soul skills. They are divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. Each level is further divided into three levels: high, middle, and low. Most of the awakened beast soul skills are at the yellow level. The stronger ones are at the Profound Level. However, the first beast soul skill is the awakening of a Profound Level, and the number of natal beast spirits in the Myriad Beasts Ranking is at least three thousand. " The old man said with a smile.

"Like your Ms Qing'er's natal beast spirit, the Red Sparrow, there are more than three thousand in the Myriad Beasts Ranking. Plus, your innate talent is pretty good, and your soul warrior has awakened a low level Profound Level beast soul skill. Her combat strength is far beyond those of the same level! "

"So that's how it is. " Zuo Mao nodded.

"I'm telling you this because you are only one step away from becoming a one-star soul cultivator. You should know a lot of things. " The old man sighed. His thoughts seemed to have returned to a long time ago.

"Eighteen years ago, you fell to the ground in the room next door. Your mother left you something and told me to let you become a Soul Personage before giving it to you. Now that you have full spirit energy, you are very close to becoming a Soul Personage. It's time to give this thing to you" The old man slowly said.

Zuo Mao's head shook. Something left behind by his mother?

This was the first time Zuo Mao had heard of his mother in eighteen years. He did not have any memories about his mother, nor did he have any memories of his father.

His grandfather had never told him where his parents had gone.

"Mao'er, you have the absolute talent that your parents left you. You have to work hard in your cultivation. Become an indomitable and powerful expert, and perhaps one day, you will be able to reunite with your parents. " The old man sighed, implying something.

"Grandpa, did your parents not die? They are still alive?" Zuo Mao's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

"Of course they are still alive. It's just that there's a powerful force blocking their path and imprisoning them. Right now, you only need to work hard in your cultivation. Only strength can dominate everything. This is the unchanging rule of the Soul Sprite Continent. " The old man's voice was low.

"This is what your mother left you. " The old man flicked his finger, and a shadow flew towards Zuo Mao.

Zuo Mao waved his hand and grabbed the shadow.

He opened his palm and a jade pendant with a mysterious creature engraved on it appeared in his palm.

"Grandpa, this is?" Zuo Mao asked.

"I don't know either. You should think about it carefully. There must be a reason why your mother left it for you. " The old man waved his hand.

"It's getting late. Go back and rest. "

"Grandpa, Mao'er will retire. "

Zuo Mao held the jade pendant in his hand and walked out of the study.

The deep and dark path was illuminated by the pure white moonlight.

"Mao. " A slim figure walked out.

"Ms Qing'er? You are waiting for me outside. " Zuo Mao was stunned.

"Let's go back together. We happened to pass by my place. " Zuo Qing'er pulled Zuo Mao's arm. The two of them walked along the small path, leaving only a long shadow behind.

. . .

Back in Zuo Mao's room.

Zuo Mao turned on the lights and the room was brightly lit.

Zuo Mao sat cross-legged on the floor, and the mysterious jade pendant appeared in his hand.

He carefully observed the jade pendant. It was dark red in color, and there was a Devil Beast carved on it that he had never seen before.

This Devil Beast was like a long snake. It had two antlers, and its legs were surrounded by clouds. It was very mystical.

"What kind of Devil Beast is this? Does the Myriad Beasts Ranking have it?" Zuo Mao's heart was filled with doubt.

Zuo Mao looked at the jade pendant from left to right. He couldn't tell what it was used for, but there was no doubt that there must be a secret hidden in this jade pendant.

His mother wouldn't leave a useless thing for him.

It was just that he hadn't discovered the use of the jade pendant yet.

After looking through it, Zuo Mao sighed. He took out a string from his room, circled it twice, tied it up, and hung it around his neck.

This was the only thing left behind by his mother. In his eyes, it was more important than anything else.

The only clue on the jade pendant was the mystical Devil Beast carved on it. Zuo Mao had never heard of such a Devil Beast before. He needed to find out more about it.

After knowing the information about the Devil Beast, perhaps he would have a new understanding of the jade pendant.

He needed to find the type of Devil Beast. Then he would definitely go to the Myriad Beasts Ranking to look for it.

The Myriad Beasts Ranking included most of the Devil Beasts in the Soul Sprite Continent, regardless of whether they were flying or flying. They were running or swimming. It had everything.

Although it was called the Myriad Beasts Ranking, there were actually over a hundred million types of Devil Beasts. The Myriad Beasts Ranking that was spread among the people was only ranked within 10,000 Devil Beasts.

The real Myriad Beasts Ranking was only available in the library of a certain city.

There were no Cloud Cities in Cloud City, but there were Yunling Cities in Yunling City, which was 500 kilometers away from Cloud City!

Zuo Mao had to make a trip to the Yunling City.

. . .

The next morning.

The Zuo family's meeting hall was very lively. The Lau family had brought people to pay a visit to the Zuo family early in the morning.

The leader was Lau Hua's father, Lau Hee. He was also an Eight-star of Spirit Stage warrior, the same level as Xu Liu.

In the meeting hall, the old man was nowhere to be seen. Only the Great Elder and the Second Elder sat opposite of Lau Hee.

With the old man's status, unless the patriarch of Lau family came to him, it would be the wisest choice to let the elder receive Lau Hee.

Lau Hee was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was dressed in a white robe and had a pair of sword-like eyebrows. His facial expression was a little ugly at this moment.

"How can you release your son and Wang Mang?" Lau Hee asked.

"It's very simple. Bring something in exchange. This was the old rule. It wasn't so easy for the Zuo family to get someone from the Lau family. Now, you want to take him away without saying a word. Do you really think that the Zuo family is easy to bully? " The Great Elder retracted his smile and spoke bluntly.

"Let me tell you, Lau Hee, you should be glad that Xu Liu arrived yesterday. If something were to happen to young master Zuo. . . Humph! I'm afraid your Lau family won't be able to handle the fury of the patriarch. " The Second Elder said with a sneer.

Lau Hee's facial expression changed, and he said, "Alright, three hundred thousand gold coins, a Soul Force Fruit. I think these things should be enough to exchange for them. "

"300,000 gold coins can still be seen, but are you using this Soul Strength Fruit to fool people? This thing is indeed very precious, but it is only useful to Striker. It can only increase one's mental strength. " Great Elder glanced at it. With a glance, he calmly said.

"The Zuo family doesn't have such a rare occupation. This kind of thing has no value at all. What's the use of such a useless thing?" The Second Elder said.

The two of them sang the same tune. The meaning was obvious, but it wasn't enough.

"Don't go too far?" Lau Hee couldn't help but say angrily.

The Great Elder slammed his right hand on the table and stood up.

"Lau Hee, I'm warning you. This is the Zuo family. Let's not talk about our reason first. Even if it's unreasonable, you have to pay attention to your own attitude. This isn't the Lau family!" The Great Elder's voice carried a cold chill.

"Yesterday, Lau Hua brought some men with him and broke into the Zuo family's market. He wanted to harm our young master. This crime is enough for Xu Liu to kill Lau Hua on the spot. Can your Lau family still fight with our Zuo family?" The Great Elder said coldly.

Lau Hee's face turned green and red. The Great Elder's words had hit the point. Lau Hua had ten brothers and sisters, and their talent wasn't any worse than his. If Lau Hua was sentenced to death by the Zuo family, the Lau family wouldn't go to war with the Zuo family just because of him.

However, the Zuo family was different. Not only was Zuo Mao the only grandson of the patriarch of the Zuo family, he was also born with great spiritual energy and extraordinary talent. If something were to happen to him, the Zuo family would definitely draw their swords at the Lau family.

Zuo Mao was the hope and lifeblood of the Zuo family. Wasn't he going to kill the Zuo family by killing him?

"Think about it carefully. Yesterday, it was Mao who was young and young. He was captured and given a chance to take the living away. If I were here, I would bring a dead person away today. " The Great Elder sat down.

Lau Hee lowered his head and remained silent. After a while, he said, "Five hundred thousand gold coins and a Soul Fruit. "

There was a trace of pain on his face. These were all his personal expenses, but for the sake of his only son, there was nothing he could do.

A smile appeared on the Great Elder's face as he and the Second Elder looked at each other. Second Elder nodded his head.

"Deal. "

"Someone, bring Lau Hua and the others here. " Second Elder ordered.

"Reporting to Second Elder, young master Zuo said that no one is allowed to release anyone without his orders. " The guard outside shouted.

"Young master?" The Second Elder was stunned.

"Then invite young master Zuo over. " The Great Elder shouted.

"Yes!"
