’Whoosh!’
When Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan entered the city, the ice coffin that trailed after them like a shadow became the center of attention.
The ice coffin was too eye-catching.
However, not a lot of people dared to look for a long time. In a world where the strongest ruled, they had to be cautious in everything they did.
They would get themselves into trouble if they were reckless!
Soon after, Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan entered a restaurant. They found themselves a table close to the window and took their seats.
’Bang!’
Under Duan Ling Tian’s control, the ice coffinnded sturdily on the next table.
All of the customers in the restaurant suddenly looked over.
"What a beautifuldy!" Some of them who were observant soon noticed the red-ddy lying in the ice coffin. Althrough the ice coffin was in the way, it was difficult to hide how beautiful she was.
"Her life breath’s still strong... Why is she lying in the ice coffin?" Many of them were puzzled.
"Perhaps she contracted someplicated disease." Some of them spected.
One thing that was certain was the appearance of the ice coffin stole the limelight in the restaurant.
Such a sight was rare.
Moreover, Duan Ling Tian was too much for taking up an entire table with the ice coffin alone.
Soon after, the restaurant manager ordered a waiter to speak to Duan Ling Tian. The waiter looked at him and slowly said, "Sir, you can’t..."
"I’ll pay for both tables when I get the bill." Duan Ling Tian interrupted the waiter. He knew what the waiter was going to say. He was definitely going to say Duan Ling Tian taking up an extra table would affect the restaurant’s business.
The waiter and the restaurant manager were rendered speechless.
Duan Ling Tian leaned on the window after he ced his order and got rid of the waiter who left to prepare the food. He looked rxed as he watched the people walking on the street outside the restaurant.
At this moment, his heart was finally at peace.
He did not dare to rx when he was traveling since he might encounter dangerous situations.
He finally felt relieved.
"Young Master, what should we do next?" Xiong Quan asked curiously as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.
He was unaware of the ns that Duan Ling Tian had secretly made.
"When the waiter is serving our food, ask him which force is the most powerful in the Northern Mountain Land... After we get our answer, we’ll visit that particr force!" Duan Ling Tian said.
He shifted his attention to the ice coffin on the next table as he spoke. To be more precise, he was looking at the red-ddy lying in the ice coffin.
The red-ddy’s beautiful face consumed all his attention. It was difficult for him to look away.
At this moment, the fondness in his eyes was like flowing water that seemed able to melt everything in its path.
’Tian Wu, I’ll wake you up from thisa as soon as I can... Please wait for me,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
"Yes." Although Xiong Quan had no idea why his Young Master wanted to go to the most powerful force in the Northern Mountain Land, he did not question him further. He believed his Young Master had his own reason for his actions.
All he had to do was follow his Young Master and handle all the trivial matters.
Soon after, the dishes were served on the table one after another.
"Waiter, I would like to ask... Which force is the most powerful in the Northern Mountain Land?" Xiong Quan asked the waiter as per Duan Ling Tian’s order.
"I suppose it’s your first time in our Northern Mountain Land?" The waiter asked as his eyes gleamed.
"That’s right." Xiong Quan nodded.
"Sir, there are two ns that are the most powerful in the Northern Mountain Land... One is the Ou n while the other is Lu n." The waiter smiled as he answered Xiong Quan’s question.
"Two ns? Ou n and Lu n?" Before Xiong Quan could response, Duan Ling Tian who was sitting next to him frowned as his heart jolted.
’What a coincidence.’
Duan Ling Tian remembered back when he left Darming Dynasty with Feng Tian Wu and Feng Wu Dao, the siblings Feng Wu Dao saved when they were on their way to the Ancient City of Evest were from the Northern Mountain’s Lu n.
’The Northern Mountain’s Lu n is one of the two most powerful forces in Northern Mountain Land?’
’They’re just ns, but they’re one of the powerful forces in Northern Mountain Land... What a surprise,’ Duan Ling Tian eyes gleamed as he revealed an expression of surprise on his face.
Naturally, he knew very well there had to be something more to the two ns for them to be the most powerful forces in the Northern Mountain Land.
"ns?" Xiong Quan was also surprised when he heard what the waiter said.
One must know that the difference between a n and a sect was significant.
ns ced a lot of importance on the direct line of their descendants and inheritance was usually decided by bloodline.
No matter how outstanding a secondary disciple or a disciple with a different family name was, it was difficult for them to stand out. The most they would be given was the position of an elder or a Revered Elder.
It was definitely impossible for a secondary disciple and a disciple with a different family name to be given the position of n Leader.
Therefore, it was extremely difficult for ns to rise to prominence.
On the other hand, sects were not limited by bloodline. The powerful ones could climb thedder and rise. As long as one was capable, it was possible for one to be a Sect Leader.
That would boost the sect’s disciple’s aggressiveness by many folds.
In the Foreign Lands where there were so many powerhouses, the difference between a n and a sect was undoubtedly significant.
However, this Northern Mountain Land was ruled by two ns?
’Unbelievable!’
Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan thought it was odd.
"Sir, do you find it strange that the most powerful forces in the Northern Mountain Land are the two ns?" The waiter asked. He could guess the thoughts in Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan’s minds through the expressions on their faces.
Both of them did not deny this and nodded in unison.
"Sir, you might not know this... The Ou n and Lu n of the Northern Mountain Land arepletely different from ordinary ns. I heard that the two ns have existed for 10,000 years!" The waiter became serious as he spoke.
’10,000 years!’
The waiter’s words shocked Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan.
A n that existed for as long as 10,000 years?
How powerful were they? It was beyond their imagination.
"ns that exist for 10,000 years... There must be some reason behind it?" Duan Ling Tian asked as he looked at the waiter.
He concluded both the Ou n and Lu n of the Northern Mountain Land must be extraordinary.
"You’re wise, sir." The waiter smiled as he said, "There’s a reason behind their 10,000 years existence... One is a weapons craftsman n while the other is an alchemist n!"
’Weapons craftsman n?’
’Alchemist n?’
What the waiter said confused Duan Ling Tian even more. "What does that mean?"
"That means... In the respective ns, one of them has more than 50% weapons craftsmen in the n while the other has more than 50% alchemists in the n." The waiter exined to Duan Ling Tian.
"One of them has more than 50% weapons craftsmen in the n?"
"The other has more than 50% alchemists in the n?" Both Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan were shocked by the waiter’s words.
On Cloud Continent, everyone knew that extraordinary talent was needed in crafting weapons and refining medicine in order to be a weapons craftsman and an alchemist.
If one did not have sufficient talent, it was impossible to be a grade nine weapons craftsmen or a grade nine alchemist.
However, someone had just told them that a n had more than 50% weapons craftsmen while the other n had more than 50% alchemists.
"That’s right." The waiter nodded. He was used to seeing the shock on people’s faces when he told them this. It was simr to the expressions on Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan’s faces.
There was no exception whether it was their first time in the Northern Mountain Land or it was their first time hearing about the two most powerful forces in the Northern Mountain Land.
"I heard that Ou n and Lu n were established in the Northern Mountain Land almost at the same time 10,000 years ago... The Ou n’s ancestor was a grade one weapons craftsman while the Lu n’s ancestor was a grade one alchemist."
"Ever since the two ns were established, they’ve been focusing on Weapons Refinement Dao and Medicine Refinement Dao respectively... The skills were passed on until today, and that’s how they became a well-known weapon craftsman n and alchemist n in the Northern Mountain Land," the waiter said.
Grade one weapons craftsman!
Grade one alchemist!
Duan Ling Tian was shocked.
He did not expect there were grade one weapon craftsmen and grade one alchemists in such ns outside the Foreign Lands’ central area.
"In the two ns’ 10,000 years of history, they have more than ten grade one weapon craftsmen and grade one alchemists in each n... Those grade one weapon craftsmen and alchemists had been to the Inner Land on the other side of Ruo Shui River."
"They were given titles such as Interim Advisors and Revered Elders in the first-rate forces and crafted Spirit Weapons and refined pills for them... Because of that, they managed to establish a lot of connections with the first-rate forces. That’s the main reason why Ou n and Lu n can exist for 10,000 years."
"When those first-rate forces epted grade one weapons craftsmen and grade one alchemists from both ns as their Interim Advisors and Revered Elders, they would issue a public promise - As long as the ns exist, they would prevent all killings or annihtion of the Ou n and Lu n!"
"Although there were many forces that attempted to attack Ou n and Lu n throughout the 10,000 years, they did not dare to kill everyone in both ns. That’s how both ns managed to prevail until today and be the strongest in the Northern Mountain Land!" The waiter patiently exined Ou n and Lu n’s history and the reason for their 10,000 years of existence to Duan Ling Tian and Xiong Quan.
"Perhaps the first-rate forces in the Inner Land might be able to kill the entire Ou n and Lu n, but they don’t have the courage to do that! If they do something like that, it might spell the end for their force since they would be simultaneously attacked by at least three first-rate forces."
"The connections Ou and Lu ns are simply too terrifying... Those were wealth, left behind for them by their seniorss," the waiter said.
