With a box full of materials, Zhou Yang returned to his room with a heavy heart. For the past few days, he had been staying in the General's Mansion without going anywhere. In fact, a large part of the reason was that he was waiting for his father to return.
He knew very well that his father was not the kind of person who would sit still and wait for death. He would definitely have a backup plan.
For the entire afternoon, he was not in the mood to refine pills. He just sorted out the materials and carefully studied the two pill recipes in the black gourd.
Of the two pill recipes, one was for the Energy Recovery Pill and the other was for the Healing Pill.
The Energy Recovery Pill, as the name suggested, was a pill used to restore Qi while the Healing Pill was used to treat injuries.
Both of them were ungraded pills, and their effects were average. However, they were the most commonly sold pills in medicine shops because they were very cheap.
"Lady Nine should know that I have these two pill recipes, otherwise there would not be more than 30 portions of Energy Recovery Pill and Healing Pill in the box …"
More than 30 portions of materials, unless he had no talent in alchemy, he would definitely be able to refine them successfully.
Night quietly fell and a dark cloud covered the bright moon in the sky. Light footsteps could be heard from the General's Mansion as more than a dozen warriors in black entered from the back door and arrived at Su Ruohan's courtyard.
Zhou Yang, who had been paying attention to the surroundings, naturally noticed them. He and Arrow Head also arrived at Su Ruohan's courtyard when the men in black arrived.
However, they were all stopped outside.
Arrow Head recognized the man in black who stopped him. It was the commander of the Blood Wolf Guards, an expert of the Ninth Order of the Wood Star Realm, Blood Blade!
Arrow Head, Blood Blade, and many other Blood Wolf Guards were actually orphans taken in by the Zhou family's previous generation. They did not have a surname, but they were loyal to Zhou Zhantian.
After a full hour, Su Ruohan came out of the house and walked to Zhou Yang's side. She whispered, "Your father wants to see you."
Zhou Yang nodded. He saw that Su Ruohan's eyes were filled with sadness, but he did not ask anything and walked straight into the house.
Inside the house, Zhou Zhantian was smiling and leaning on a big chair. He did not look like he was in trouble at all.
"Boy, you must have a lot of complaints about me." Zhou Zhantian's voice was both rough and strong like a soldier.
Zhou Yang smiled and said, "I have some complaints, but I don't hate you. You just didn't fulfill your responsibility as a father, and I also didn't fulfill my filial duty. We are even."
"Haha …" Zhou Zhantian suddenly laughed, "Little brat, what are you so resentful about? After I die, besides my women, everything else will be yours, but …"
At this point, Zhou Zhan Tian's voice became low.
"But you must be qualified to inherit it."
Zhou Yang shook his head. "I'm not interested in inheriting your things, nor do I want to bury you with my own hands. What are your plans?"
"Plans …" Zhou Zhan Tian coldly smiled, "From the moment Zhao Xin married into my Zhou family, this battle has already begun. This pool of water is very deep, I am only a slightly more important person, while you, are the true eye of the storm, it's just that no one knows about it yet."
"I …" Zhou Yang frowned, not understanding what Zhou Zhan Tian's words meant.
"When it's time for you to know, you will know. Right now, you only need to focus on cultivating, there is no need to worry about these things. You must know that this world is very big, even Draconic Country is but a drop in the ocean."
Zhou Zhan Tian's eyes flashed with a sharp light, his words not even placing the entirety of Draconic Country in his eyes.
The two were silent for a long time. At this time, Zhou Zhan Tian took out a small black war flag from his storage ring.
"You can choose not to inherit the General's Mansion, but you must inherit this. My Zhou family's Fearless War Flag has been passed down for four generations." Zhou Zhan Tian solemnly said to Zhou Yang.
Fearless War Flag!
Zhou Yang stared at the war flag for a long time. Before this, he had never heard that the Zhou family had such a thing, but from Zhou Zhan Tian's expression, it was obvious that this was the Zhou family's true heirloom.
"Our Zhou family has been established on this continent since before the founding of the Draconic Martial Country. Although we are not well-known, we have our own heritage. The Fearless War Flag was created by the Zhou family's fourth generation ancestor by gathering the souls of countless heroes on the battlefield. Even the second, third, and fourth generations' remnant souls are among them …"
This …
Zhou Yang's heart was aghast. This was the first time he had heard of such a terrifying treasure that could absorb the remnant souls of others. Moreover, they were the souls of those who died on the battlefield.
It must be known that the souls of these people were much stronger than ordinary martial artists.
"What is its use?" Zhou Yang asked the question in his heart.
Zhou Zhan Tian mysteriously smiled, "The war flag contains a secret technique called Fearless Fighting Spirit. This battle technique is divided into nine layers, the first layer will allow you to double your combat strength, double your strength, double your speed, double your Qi, and even double your physical strength …"
"Double everything … there is actually such a heaven-defying secret technique in this world?" Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Zhan Tian in disbelief.
"Your expression is the same as when I first learned of this Fearless Fighting Spirit, but reality has proven that it is true. The first layer doubles your combat strength, the second layer quadruples your combat strength, the third layer eight times your combat strength, and the fourth layer sixteen times your combat strength …"
Zhou Yang suddenly felt as if he had been electrocuted. If he could cultivate this Fearless Fighting Spirit to the ninth layer, then …
Five hundred and twelve times your combat strength!
Invincible!
"May I ask what layer Father has cultivated to?" Zhou Yang asked.
"The third layer!" Zhou Zhan Tian replied, his face filled with arrogance.
"Only the third layer." Zhou Yang was clearly disappointed. He was well aware of Zhou Zhan Tian's talent, the most dazzling genius of the prefecture capital twenty years ago.
"At the age of forty-five, after experiencing over a thousand battles on the battlefield, I have finally comprehended the third layer. Apart from the first generation, I am the fastest." As if seeing through Zhou Yang's doubts, Zhou Zhan Tian smiled.
"This Fearless Fighting Spirit requires one to fight on the battlefield in order to cultivate it?"
Zhou Zhan Tian nodded, "That's right. You must think that I, Zhou Zhan Tian, desire to accumulate merits and become the commander of the Divine General's estate, but that is not the case. The purpose of fighting on the battlefield is to cultivate Fearless Fighting Spirit. As a Three-Star Dragon General, the commander's position … I am not interested."
"So that's how it is …"
For the first time, Zhou Yang felt that he had underestimated his father. He also finally understood why Zhou Zhan Tian's eyes were filled with disdain when he mentioned the Dragonmartial Country.
From the looks of it, with such a heaven-defying secret technique, the Dragonmartial Country was definitely not the final destination.
"But Father, why did you give me the war flag?" Zhou Yang asked doubtfully.
"I have already memorized the Fearless Fighting Spirit secret technique. Even without the war flag, I can still cultivate it. The purpose of the war flag is only to protect my life in a life or death situation. In addition, it is related to the first generation's secret."
