…
Before they left, Nan Lingsha brought Zhu Minglang to a place. It was the treasure land of the Nan Family, known as the Sacred Forest.
The Nan Clan's Sacred Forest was located at the back of the mansion, behind a garden. Walking along the garden and into the depths of the forest, one could see a very magnificent forest of silver fir trees.
The trees were tall and straight, and their leaves were like umbrellas that covered the sky.
The person leading the way was a guardian of the Nan Family and his son, Nan Zhaobing.
When Nan Zhaobing saw Nan Lingsha bring Zhu Minglang to the sacred altar, his displeasure was written all over his face.
"It wasn't easy for the Wood Spirit Sacred Altar to gather ten years' worth of dew. It was supposed to be used to breed a new Sacred Wood Azure Sacred Dragon, or to baptize the most outstanding Master Dragon Shepard. How could it be given to an outsider, let alone a person with a terrible reputation!" Nan Zhaobing was extremely dissatisfied with Zhu Minglang.
He knew he shouldn't say this in front of an elder or Nan Lingsha.
But he couldn't help it.
The Ten Year Dew! This was the Nan Family's most precious treasure, the Sacred Forest. The Nan Family's disciples were secretly competing for the Sacred Forest Ten Year Dew!
Just like before, Nan Lingsha still brought Yan Sha along. Her gaze was cold as she looked at this ignorant disciple who came out of nowhere.
Slap!!!
At that moment, the Protector ruthlessly slapped Nan Zhaobing's face.
After the beating, the Protector immediately bowed and apologised to Zhu Minglang, saying, "I did not teach my son well, I did not teach my son well. I beg Young Master Zhu not to be calculative with my stupid son."
"Dad, I …"
"Slap!!!" Seeing that Nan Zhaobing still wanted to talk nonsense, the Protector slapped her again.
The slap almost broke Nan Zhaobing's teeth. His mouth was full of blood.
Zhu Minglang was impressed by the guardian. If he let this idiot say one more word, Nan Lingsha would probably cripple him even if he didn't teach him a lesson.
The entire Nan Family was still alive. Nan Lingsha had used the Painting Book of Life and Death to steal the souls of those who had betrayed Li Yunzi. As for what had happened in the meeting hall not long ago, this Sacred Forest Protector had also been there.
The Old Madam of the Li Family had already treated Zhu Minglang as her own grandson. Whoever dared to say anything to make Zhu Minglang uncomfortable was courting death!
"He should be disciplined," Nan Lingsha said coldly.
The Protector hurriedly lifted up Nan Zhaobing, whose face was covered in blood and whose eyes were filled with confusion. He said angrily, "Why aren't you getting out of here? I asked you to broaden your horizons, not to talk too much!"
Nan Zhaobing had already been knocked unconscious. In the end, she fled back under her father's dignity and anger.
"He doesn't seem to know what he did wrong. Since we are classmates, I can give him a few pointers," Zhu Minglang said to the Guardian with a smile.
The protector suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He hurriedly apologized and swore that he would punish him even more severely when he returned.
"The Ten Years' Holy Dew will be very helpful to the growth and strengthening of your Sacred Wood Azure Dragon," Nan Lingsha said.
"Thank you, Miss Lingsha," Zhu Minglang did not hesitate.
The Holy Dew that the Nan Family had hidden away was a very rare Heavenly Essence. It was unlikely to be found even if one traveled all over the mountains and forests.
Besides, it was a spiritual item that was most compatible with the Sacred Wood Azure Dragon's attributes. If he had heard that the Nan Family had such a treasure, he would have stolen a portion for his baby dragon even if he had to!
"Great Protector, the Hundred Years' Holy Dew should have been nurtured by now, right? Please give it to Zhu Minglang too," Nan Lingsha said.
"Hundred … Hundred Years' Holy Dew, this is the foundation of our Nan Family …" The Sacred Wood Protector was stunned. He did not expect Nan Lingsha to give this treasure to Zhu Minglang. However, he quickly noticed Nan Lingsha's gaze and immediately said righteously, "However, only a treasure like this is worthy of Prince Zhu Minglang's identity!"
Zhu Minglang glanced at the Guardian, who was speaking in the same tone as before. He sighed in his heart. Nan Zhaobing's father was also a talent. He could even make things sound so perfect!
Nan Lingsha withdrew her cold gaze. The Guardian let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly continued to lead the way for Zhu Minglang.
The Ten Years' Holy Dew was the Wood Essence that was extracted from the Silver Fir Altar after gathering the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. Normally, it was slowly extracted from Silver Fir Trees that were more than ten years old. Just the extraction process alone required a lot of manpower and money.
The Hundred Years' Holy Dew was even rarer. It was extracted from the Hundred Years' Silver Fir Trees. The Nan Family's Grand Duke Nan had enjoyed such a high status because he had obtained the Hundred Years' Holy Dew.
As a matter of fact, Grand Duke Nan had rebelled against Li Yunzi partly because of the Hundred Years' Holy Dew.
Grand Duke Nan wanted to enjoy the Hundred Years' Holy Dew for himself, while Li Yunzi wanted to use it to nurture a new Dragon Master.
… …
The three of them soon arrived at a forest cliff.
At the foot of the cliff was an altar made of Spiritual Wood Stones. The sun was blocked by the tall Silver Fir Trees, but the stone altar glowed even brighter than the sun. It was scorching hot!
When they got closer, a huge ancient tree on the cliff actually came to life. Then, its body stretched out in the dense foliage, and an old head poked out, looking down at the three people who came to the holy altar.
It was an old Sacred Wood Azure Dragon!
Zhu Minglang was surprised. Most of the dragon's body was still hidden in the forest. Only the tip of the iceberg was revealed, yet it gave off a powerful, ancient, and mysterious feeling.
He hadn't thought that there really would be a Sacred Wood Azure Dragon in the Nan Family's sacred woods!
"Sacred Guard, we're here for the Holy Dew. Here's the offering we brought." With that, the enforcer placed a few translucent pearls to the side and bowed respectfully before withdrawing.
The old Sacred Wood Azure Dragon put away the pearls and slowly crawled back to the forest cliff. Its head, torso, and wings were like an ancient tree attached to the cliff. It didn't take long for it to become one with the surrounding vegetation.
Nan Lingsha walked to the glowing altar and took out ten portions of Ten Years' Holy Dew and one portion of Hundred Years' Holy Dew.
She divided them into bamboo jars and handed them to Zhu Minglang.
"Each portion of Ten Years' Holy Dew is enough for it to absorb for ten days. As for the Hundred Years' Holy Dew, it's best to take it when it's at a bottleneck. It can help it evolve and awaken some powerful sacred dragon power, "said Nan Lingsha.
"Alright, alright. Thank you again, Miss Lingsha," said Zhu Minglang.
The enforcer looked at the bamboo jars in Zhu Minglang's hands and swallowed hard. His Adam's apple was moving!
Even a enforcer like him had to work diligently for many years to get a portion of Ten Years' Holy Dew.
The Ten Years' Holy Dew was a family treasure that the young members of the Nan Family would fight over. Otherwise, his son Nan Zhaobing wouldn't have reacted so violently.
And now, Nan Lingsha was giving Zhu Minglang and his dragon like water!
The other dragon sheds in the city-states were willing to spend a fortune just to get a portion of Ten Years' Holy Dew from the Nan Family. In the end, Nan Lingsha had wrapped up all the Nan Family's stock over the years and given it all to Zhu Minglang.
The Ten Years' Holy Dew wasn't cabbage, let alone the Hundred Years' Holy Dew.
As the Great Guardian, tears were about to roll out of his eyes, but he couldn't say a single word.
Zhu Minglang didn't stand on ceremony and accepted Nan Lingsha's generous gift. After all, they would be a family in the future.
The enforcer reminded Zhu Minglang, "Young Master Zhu, our Holy Dew doesn't have a digestive restriction with soul beads, spirit fruits, and other strengthening items. Therefore, you can continue to strengthen your dragon with other feys while feeding the Silver Fir Holy Dew."
Since he couldn't stop Zhu Minglang, the enforcer felt that it was better to show some goodwill to him. Especially since his son Nan Zhaobing had offended Zhu Minglang before and might have to rely on him in the future.
"It's so magical. It's really a treasure!" Zhu Minglang's eyes lit up.
It didn't affect the digestion time of other strengthening feys!
The so-called strengthening was to use all kinds of heaven and earth essence to allow one's dragon to obtain a surge of heaven and earth spirit energy to rapidly increase its strength. It could also allow the dragon pet to quickly go through several stages of growth.
However, all such strengthening feys had a digestive period.
For example, a thousand-year soul bead would require seven days to a month to digest.
During this digestive period, if the dragon pet were to consume soul beads or other strengthening feys, the effects would be close to zero.
If the Holy Dew didn't conflict with the digestion of other feys, it meant that the dragon pet's evolution would accumulate an extra stream of energy!
No wonder it was a treasure in the Nan family's collection. It wouldn't be easy for the Zong Lin in the Polar Court Continent to find a fey that didn't affect their digestive period.
"Your other dragon pets can also consume one portion. There's no need for any more. Only the Sacred Wood Azure Dragon's bloodline can absorb it multiple times," the enforcer said again.
Indeed, those who could dominate a territory all had something to rely on.
It seemed that some wild forest dragons ended up living in the Silver Fir Holy Forest and formed a cooperative relationship with the Nan family because of the Silver Fir Holy Dew's uniqueness!
With this Holy Dew, Little Qing Zhuo's main tier strength was guaranteed.
Nan Lingsha was still worried that she would lose in terms of strength, so she used the family's resources to send out a dragon lord level holy dragon.
He felt that if he absorbed all the Ten-Year Holy Dew and Hundred-Year Holy Dew, and then worked on the other four aspects, Little Qing Zhuo could at least become a dragon lord.
It might even become a dragon lord!
Raising a dragon didn't seem to be as difficult as he thought …
When autumn came, he would have a dragon lord level pet!
…
If the enforcer knew what Zhu Minglang was thinking, he would probably die from anger.
The entire Nan family had worked hard for so many years to produce this little amount of Holy Dew. Each portion was priceless. If a pig drank all of it, it could become an earth dragon!
Otherwise, why would Grandfather Nan still refuse to let go of the Hundred-Year Holy Dew at such an old age and participate in the plan to suppress Li Yunzi?
