After his parents had been revived, Jianchen's greatest wish had been fulfilled. He had been extremely happy for the past few days.
Half a month later, Jianchen, Bi Yuntian, and Changyang Ba, who had completely recovered, gathered together. Bi Yuntian and Changyang Ba's faces were filled with heavy thoughts.
"Xiang'er, we've already stayed in Mercenary City for so long. It's time to leave. Let's return to Changyang Prefecture," said Bi Yuntian.
"Sigh, so much time has passed in the blink of an eye. Xiang'er, we've already left Changyang Prefecture for far too long. Although we've already learned a few things about Changyang Prefecture from you, we still want to hurry back because that's our home," said Bi Yuntian with a sigh. The thought of returning home had already occupied the couple's minds for half a month, but they had never expressed it because their bodies had always been weak.
Jianchen agreed without any hesitation when he heard his parents, "Father, mother, since you want to go back so badly, let's leave Mercenary City as soon as possible." Jian Chen seemed to think of something when he reached there. He hesitated for a while before saying with a complicated expression, "Father, mother, the Changyang clan has changed a lot. I hid some things from you in order to let you recover in peace when your souls had just fused with your bodies."
Jianchen had indeed told Bi Yuntian and Bi Yuntian about the situation in Changyang Prefecture over ten days ago. However, he did not go into detail and hid a lot of things. He did not mention anything about the protector clans. He only did this so that his parents could recover peacefully after being revived. After all, the relationship between Changyang Prefecture in Lore City and the protector clan of Changyang Prefecture on the Tian Yuan Continent was just too shocking to the two of them.
Now that Bi Yuntian and Changyang Ba had completely recovered, Jianchen no longer had any worries. He told them about some of the more detailed matters regarding Changyang Prefecture, including the situation of the ten protector clans and the return of the founder of Changyang Prefecture, Changyang Zu Yunxiao, who was known as the Changyang Ancestor.
Changyang Ba and Bi Yuntian were about to return to Changyang Prefecture. Jianchen only wanted them to understand the current situation of Changyang Prefecture beforehand so that they could be mentally prepared. That way, they would not be stunned when they returned to Changyang Prefecture.
Changyang Ba and Bi Yuntian became tongue-tied once again after learning about these matters. Their hearts churned, unable to calm down for quite some time.
The two of them had never thought that Changyang Prefecture would possess such a deep background. They had never thought that the founder of Changyang Prefecture in Lore City would actually be a direct descendant of one of the ten protector clans on the continent.
Jianchen left the room, leaving the two of them with some peace and quiet. Jianchen only briefly described what he had gone through in the past few years. He did not go into detail. He had experienced quite a lot of bloodshed in the past few years. He had walked on the brink of death many times, so he did not plan on telling his parents about these matters, lest they worry.
At the same time, Jianchen did not mention the enmity between him and the protector clans. Changyang Ba and Bi Yuntian could not participate in the conflict between him and the protector clans. If he told his parents about these matters, it would only increase their burden.
Afterward, Jianchen found Ming Dong and Tie Ta. He had already learned from Tian Jian that Ming Dong had reached the peak of Heaven Saint Master long ago. He had been stuck at the bottleneck of Saint Ruler in the past few years, unable to break through.
Jianchen took out three white beast furs and a scroll from his Space Ring and passed them to Ming Dong. He said, "Ming Dong, these things can assist you in comprehending the mysteries of the world and breaking through to Saint Ruler. I relied on them to reach Saint Ruler in the past. Just stay in Mercenary City and focus on cultivating so that you can reach Saint Ruler sooner."
Ming Dong did not try to be courteous. He accepted the three beast furs and the scroll from Jianchen and firmly nodded. He said, "Don't worry, Jianchen. When we meet again, I'll definitely be a Saint Ruler."
At this moment, the white-robed Tian Jian walked in from outside. He casually glanced at the items in Ming Dong's hand. At first, he did not pay much attention to them, but in the next moment, his eyes suddenly narrowed. He stared at the three white beast skins in Ming Dong's hand, and with a slight movement of his body, he arrived before Ming Dong in an instant. He casually took the three snow-white beast skins from Ming Dong's hand and studied them carefully. He became surprised and uncertain.
Tian Jian's reaction stunned Ming Dong, Jianchen, and Tie Ta. Soon after, Jianchen seemed to realize something. A gleam of light flashed through his eyes as he asked, "Senior Tian Jian, do you recognize these three beast furs?"
Tian Jian did not answer immediately. He held the beast furs in his hand for quite a while before nodding slightly. He looked at Jianchen in interest, "Jianchen, where did you obtain these three beast furs?"
"I obtained them from a place I didn't know before. Senior Tian Jian, do you know the secret behind these three beast furs?" Jianchen asked. He had already obtained some basic information about the beast furs from Mo Tianyun, but his knowledge was still limited. Aside from knowing that there were a total of eighteen beast furs and that only the soul of the Holy Emperor could fuse with them, he knew nothing else.
Jianchen had always been extremely curious about the secrets behind the beast furs.
After a moment of silence, Tian Jian said, "Our Mercenary City also has one of these beast furs. An elder of our Mercenary City came across it several hundred thousand years ago by chance and has kept it ever since. There's a mysterious and powerful energy hidden in the beast furs. When this energy is hidden, no one can sense it at all. Once it awakens, it can manifest the mysteries of the world. It's extremely wondrous. Moreover, the beast furs are extremely tough. No one in the world can damage it at all. Even I am nowhere close to being able to do it. "
"In the past, many seniors of our Mercenary City have tried to guess the secret behind the beast furs. Aside from suspecting that it was the furs of the Winged Tiger, they have come up with nothing else."
Tian Jian gently rubbed the white beast furs in his hand as he murmured to himself, "Our Mercenary City has one of these beast furs, and the protector clans still have six of them. Coupled with the three in your hands, there are already ten of them. I wonder how many of these beast furs there are in total."
Jianchen could not help but feel disappointed when he failed to obtain an answer from Tian Jian. However, it was not like he had come up empty-handed. At the very least, he knew the whereabouts of the other seven beast furs. One of them was in Mercenary City, six of them were in the protector clans, and only eight of them were missing.
"These beast furs can only be fused with the soul of the Holy Emperor. There's no hurry!" Jianchen thought. He had already made up his mind. He would definitely find a way to gather all the beast furs in the future.
Tian Jian passed the beast furs back to Ming Dong and said, "With the assistance of these three beast furs, it'll only be a matter of time before you break through to Saint Ruler. It's just a pity that the beast furs of Mercenary City were placed in the divine hall left behind by the city lord by a grand elder who had reached the level of the Holy Emperor. I can't take them out at all, or I would have lent them to you long ago so that you could reach Saint Ruler sooner. "
Afterward, Tian Jian looked at Jianchen and said, "Jianchen, I know you're leaving. Take your parents with you. Ming Dong and Tie Ta can stay here. Once Ming Dong becomes a Saint Ruler, he'll obviously go find you. However, Tie Ta's identity is rather special. His body's characteristics have become even more obvious since his body has been completely awakened. You've also come into contact with the protector clans very frequently recently, so Tie Ta can't go back with you. Otherwise, once the protector clans recognize him, even I won't be able to do anything. This is because he's not a human and the previous War God has a blood feud with the protector clans. "
Jianchen nodded silently. Tian Jian was right. Tie Ta's identity was just far too special. Before his strength had reached the level where he could stand up to the protector clans, it was best if he did not reveal himself before them. Once Tie Ta's identity was exposed, Jianchen would definitely stand on his side. However, once he helped Tie Ta, the protector clans that hated him would immediately label him as a traitor. Even the Changyang Prefecture of Lore City would be dragged into the mess. The consequences would be extremely severe.
Tie Ta's face immediately darkened when he heard Tian Jian's words. His heart became extremely heavy.
Jianchen patted Tie Ta's chest and said, "Tie Ta, cultivate here at ease for now. I'll come back in a few days."
Tie Ta nodded and remained silent.
