Chapter 998 - 946: The First General Tower Master’s Inheritance, Thorough Investigation of Identity!
A few more hundred breaths passed.
The three god statues still didn’t show any reaction.
The old man helping Qin Feiyang couldn’t help but gradually furrow his brows.
The General Tower Master looked at Qin Feiyang, sighed deeply, and comforted, "Even if you don’t receive the inheritance, as long as you work hard, you will certainly achieve great things with your talent."
Qin Feiyang slowly opened his eyes, his expression indeed had a hint of disappointment.
Though he couldn’t be like Young Master Hao, inheriting a Divine Art and obtaining a perfect battle art, he would be satisfied with that.
But unexpectedly, the god statue didn’t even grant him this wish.
Yet, he was helpless here.
After all, the inheritance here depends on fate, and no one can force it.
"Buzz!"
But just as he was about to get up, the first god statue suddenly emitted strands of blood-red light.
"What?"
The General Tower Master was instantly surprised.
The three old men also opened their eyes at the same time, staring firmly at the statue with incredulity in their eyes.
"Isn’t it just initiating an inheritance, why so shocked?"
Seeing the reaction of the General Tower Master and the others, Young Master Hao was a bit puzzled.
"What do you know?"
The General Tower Master glared at him.
"What do you mean?"
Young Master Hao became even more confused.
The General Tower Master whispered, "From ancient times till now, only one person has received the first General Tower Master’s inheritance!"
"Who?"
Young Master Hao was startled with doubt.
The General Tower Master said, "My senior sister, the previous General Tower Master."
Young Master Hao was taken aback and said, "So, Ancestor Mu is the second person?"
"Exactly."
"It is said that the first General Tower Master’s inheritance contains an opportunity for divine ascendancy."
"In other words."
"As long as one receives the first General Tower Master’s inheritance, there is a great chance of becoming a god in the future!"
"Actually, this isn’t just a legend."
"Because my senior sister broke through to the Pseudo God stage shortly after receiving this inheritance."
"And our General Tower has a rule."
"Whoever receives the inheritance of the first General Tower Master, no matter who they are, no matter their status, everyone in the General Tower must do their utmost to protect them."
"Moreover, they must be allowed to inherit the position of General Tower Master."
The General Tower Master said solemnly.
"This..."
Young Master Hao was also stunned.
An opportunity for divine ascendancy is hidden; isn’t this shocking beyond belief?
Whoosh!
Suddenly.
A dazzling blood-red light shot out from the brow of the statue of the first General Tower Master, and in a flash entered the top of Qin Feiyang’s head.
Qin Feiyang immediately entered a serene state, his expression extremely peaceful.
Young Master Hao glanced at Qin Feiyang, thinking, "Old man, according to what you just said, isn’t Ancestor Mu already the predetermined next General Tower Master?"
"Yes."
"After I step down, he will be the General Tower Master, and no one can replace him."
The General Tower Master said.
Young Master Hao asked, "What if it’s someone with heinous crimes, or someone with a grudge against our General Tower?"
"They can only be reformed, not killed."
"This is the first General Tower Master’s last wish, and no one can defy it."
The General Tower Master said.
"Isn’t this equivalent to having a Death Exemption Token?"
Young Master Hao looked at Qin Feiyang in awe, unable to suppress his envy.
Meanwhile.
The General Tower Master looked at Qin Feiyang, his eyes flickering with a hint of indescribable emotion.
Time passed by.
An hour passed.
"Why hasn’t he woken up yet?"
Young Master Hao wondered.
"Inheriting the first General Tower Master’s inheritance takes a long time."
"My senior sister took a full half-month back then."
"This Ancestor Mu... should take even longer."
"Let’s head back first!"
The General Tower Master pondered for a moment and said.
"Half a month?"
Young Master Hao was surprised and shook his head, "If you’re going back, you go first, I want to stay here and wait for him."
"What?"
The General Tower Master was slightly taken aback, frowning, "When did you become so close with him?"
Young Master Hao snorted coldly, "Can’t I have a confidant friend?"
"A confidant friend..."
The General Tower Master glanced at Qin Feiyang, raised an eyebrow discreetly, then said no more and quickly turned to leave.
"You really hit the jackpot with the first General Tower Master’s inheritance, kid."
Young Master Hao looked at Qin Feiyang and mumbled, then sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to heal his injuries.
The three old men exchanged a glance and also closed their eyes.
The place of inheritance soon fell into a dead silence.
...
As for the General Tower Master.
After leaving the place of inheritance, he went straight back to his residence, sitting in a pavilion, appearing restless and irritable.
"Gongsun Bei, come see me at once!"
Suddenly.
He shouted across the air.
Whoosh!
Not long after.
Gongsun Bei broke through the air, landing in front of the General Tower Master, bowing and asking, "What instructions do you have, my lord?"
The General Tower Master said solemnly, "Immediately investigate Ancestor Mu’s identity thoroughly."
Gongsun Bei was taken aback, questioning, "Why?"
The General Tower Master said, "He just received the first General Tower Master’s inheritance."
"What?"
Gongsun Bei’s expression changed, then seeing the expression of the General Tower Master, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he nodded, "Understood, I’ll investigate right away."
"Remember, do not disclose the matter of him receiving the first General Tower Master’s inheritance for now."
The General Tower Master reminded.
"Alright."
Gongsun Bei responded, then soared into the sky, flying toward the north.
Not long after.
He stopped above a secluded courtyard.
Inside the courtyard, beside a patch of flowers, an elderly white-haired man lay on a Taishi Chair, sunbathing leisurely.
"Old Liu, you’re living quite the good life!"
Gongsun Bei landed in front of the old man, chuckling.
