I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

Chapter 1735 1239: We Haven't Split the Loot Yet

"This kid…" Watching that figure, even the old man couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

As a Dao Realm expert, he could naturally sense that the young bird's realm had already reached the Fifth Grade of the Divine Cultivator Realm, and the gap between Zhang Menglong and it was simply worlds apart. When he discovered the existence of that young bird earlier, he had even prepared for this attempt to fail.

Zhang Menglong, in the Third Grade Spiritual Body Realm, stood absolutely no chance of survival in front of that young bird.

However, he did not expect that Zhang Menglong would possess such a terrifying martial arts skill, especially the twenty or so flames he summoned, each wielding earth-shattering energy. Their rarity even surpassed that of the Cold Marrow Jade Dew; at least up to now, he had never seen such a terrifying miracle of nature.

Moreover, so many flames gathered on one person, not only not repelling each other but even perfectly merging to form that dreadful colored Flame Lotus. He had never seen such an exhilaratingly talented young person.

But upon seeing this scene, the Ice Dragon Clear Sky Sparrow immediately went berserk.

The breeding process was extremely difficult; in order to nurture and hatch this chick, it had exhausted nearly all of its life's effort. It even left all the Cold Marrow Jade Dew it had accumulated in the past directly to it. Now, with its chick killed, how could it remain calm?

[Gou Dan, do you think if I eat this big bird, my power will increase significantly?]

"Of course, but this thing is not easy to deal with. Without borrowing the power of the teachers from Super God Academy, it would be very difficult."

"Then forget it," Zhang Menglong wasn't in such a hurry.

"Boy, what are you still dawdling for? Run now!" The old man flickered to Zhang Menglong's side, "This big white bird might soon go crazy. It will definitely go all out. We better not get caught up in this mess; run as far as you can!"

The old man grabbed Zhang Menglong and flew desperately in another direction.

But the white-feathered bird still pursued relentlessly from behind, moving at a speed not slower than Zhang Menglong and the old man, barely widening the gap between them.

"Damn it!" The old man appeared somewhat annoyed, "Why is it acting like a mad dog?"

"Hungry one, want a Snickers?" Zhang Menglong handed over a shapeshifting elixir he had developed himself, known for having a different shape compared to regular elixirs but essentially still an elixir.

"What a fragrance!" The old man took it, bit into it, and suddenly regained half of the energy he had just consumed. Not only that, he even felt his body become considerably lighter, widening the distance between them and the white-feathered bird considerably.

"Good stuff," the old man was surprised to find Zhang Menglong had such a magical item, "You kid never cease to amaze me."

The two kept fleeing across the glacier for an entire hour before they finally shook off the white-feathered bird. They only heard an unwilling roar, followed by its presence gradually fading from their perception range.

"Phew!" Zhang Menglong and the old man let out a sigh of relief, circling around and leaving the icy region, as the surrounding temperature gradually returned to normal.

"Whap!" Both laid down spread-eagle style; having just been under extreme mental strain, their bodies felt somewhat exhausted, and now as relaxation set in, they felt slightly drained.

Zhang Menglong took out the already roasted young bird, its heat not having dissipated yet, releasing an enticing aroma that made both swallow their saliva, "Ah, how fragrant!"

"Want a can?" Zhang Menglong offered two cans of happiness water, "Hungry, right? Let's eat together!"

Two mouthfuls of the happiness water in, the old man's face lit up with delight, "I've had countless fine wines in my life, but I've never tasted anything like this!"

"There's plenty you haven't tried!"

"Hahaha, I, the old man, consider you my friend now," the old man laughed heartily, unaffected by the age and strength disparity between them.

"I'm Gu Tianle," Zhang Menglong said, "from the Ritian Empire."

"You are that Gu Tianle? I've heard Xiluo mention you," the old man chuckled, "I thought that brat was just bragging, but now it seems he was actually being too modest."

"You know Xiluo?"

"Qi Congyun," the old man introduced himself, "from Sunset Sect, Xiluo is my student."

"You're also from Sunset Sect?" Zhang Menglong paused, suddenly feeling quite connected to Sunset Sect.

"With your skill, you can easily pass the primary selection assessment. When it comes to choosing a faction, why not join our Sunset Sect? I'm somewhat of an Elder there, and I could guide your path," Qi Congyun offered an olive branch to Zhang Menglong.

"Sure, I was already considering joining Sunset Sect," Zhang Menglong replied, "but Elder Qi, I heard Divine Profound Hall is the strongest of the 18 factions, yet your Sunset Sect…"

"Bullshit!" Qi Congyun spat out a chunk of meat, "What do you know? Although our Sunset Sect is indeed at the bottom right now, back in the day, we were the strongest."

"Really?" Zhang Menglong teased deliberately.

"Hmph, 40,000 years ago, one of our core disciples single-handedly stormed into their Divine Profound Hall! Their millions of outer sect disciples, hundreds of thousands of Inner Sect Disciples, and several thousand Core Disciples couldn't stop him!"

"That impressive?" Zhang Menglong doubted.

Claiming your Core Disciple is tougher than theirs is within reason, but saying their painstakingly cultivated disciples couldn't stop a single one of yours does include some elements of exaggeration.

"I'm not bragging," Qi Congyun stated, "That Core Disciple was my senior brother, the strongest in our Sunset Sect over the years, and he alone smashed into the Divine Profound Hall, demolishing their sect hall and killing three Elders."

"Was he really so formidable?" Zhang Menglong felt his blood stir hearing that; regardless of the motives, if true, it would indeed be legendary.

"This is considered one of Divine Profound Hall's dark histories," Qi Congyun continued, "Had my senior brother not fallen, what role would Divine Profound Hall have now?"

"But doesn't that only prove your senior brother's might? What does it say about your Sunset Sect?"

"Hahaha, it says plenty," Qi Congyun responded, "Once you join Sunset Sect, you'll understand."

"Just because you want me to join doesn't mean I'll sign up immediately. I want to see first; if you were just blowing smoke, wouldn't I feel cheated?" Zhang Menglong sounded negotiating.

"No matter how strong Sunset Sect was back then, you must admit it's at the bottom now,"

"You brat," Qi Congyun gritted his teeth, "Just say it, what conditions will make you join our Sunset Sect?"

"That depends on how generous Elder Qi is willing to be."

"Let's do this," Qi Congyun took out three items resembling nails, but their material felt somewhat like jade stone, "Take these!"

"What's this?" Zhang Menglong examined the items curiously.

"These are Jade Hairpins with my mental imprint," Qi Congyun explained, "If you encounter any trouble, just break them, and I'll find you in the shortest time. As long as you don't provoke anyone above the Third Grade Dao Realm, I can handle any problem for you!"

"Wuhu!" Zhang Menglong quickly smiled and tucked them away, "Alright, since you hold me in such high regard, if I don't reciprocate, I'd be ungrateful."

"Hahaha, good!" Qi Congyun celebrated happily, glad to find such talent for Sunset Sect.

"Well, I have some matters to attend to, let's meet up later."

"Alright!"

"Wait!" Qi Congyun suddenly realized, "You rascal, my share of the Cold Marrow Jade Dew! We still haven't divided it!"
