Three shadows blurred through the air, quickly disappearing into the southern horizons.
“Who were those three experts? Even a Prime Saint like Lord Reger was killed in one blow.” Only now did the people in the restaurant dare to speak, while at the same time, they raised their head, staring skywards in a vain attempt to catch a vestigial glimpse of Linley and the others.”
“That youngster was too powerful. He was able to seize a Saint’s blade with his two fingers.”
“I think that young man was even more powerful…”
Everyone in the bar began to excitedly chat, while Belita stared towards the horizon, towards where Linley’s group had vanished. She, Belita, could do nothing but remember this kindness in her heart.
Mount Copper Gong was actually not too far away from Linley’s hometown of Wushan Township. It was also considered within the domain of the magical beasts.
Only, with the experts present in this location, the magical beasts did not dare to draw near.
“This is Mount Copper Gong!” In mid-air, his robes fluttering in the wind, Sati pointed down towards a mountain.
Next to him was Linley and Bebe.
“It seems there isn’t that many people present?” Linley was rather surprised. Logically speaking, based on what he understood, if many experts came to pay visits to the Lord of Mount Copper Gong, there should be many people here. However, Linley, staring down into the manor, didn’t see many people at all.
Sati explained, “Teacher’s two brothers have informed us that after receiving tutelage from Teacher, we cannot come disturb Teacher again for the next ten years.”
“Oh.” Linley understood.
After all, there were only so many experts in the Yulan continent. Not too many knew of the existence of the Lord of Mount Copper Gong. Given they weren’t to disturb him again for ten years after being given tutelage, no wonder there weren’t many people here.
“Let’s head down.” Linley was the first to fly down.
The residence of the Lord of Mount Copper Gong was a secluded, quiet manor. Linley and the others, upon arriving in front of the manor, couldn’t help but sigh in amazement.
“This residence…” Linley sensed that this residence emanated a powerful earth elemental essence aura.
Sati revealed a hint of worship in his eyes as well. “This residence was created from earth elemental essence, formed into a solid hole. If you look at the walls, you won’t see a single crack or seam. To be able to easily control earth elemental essence to create such a manor is truly incredible.”
“You don’t understand.” Linley’s face was very solemn.
“Oh?” Sati stared towards Linley in astonishment.
Linley stared solemnly at the residence in front of him. Sati was only a Prime Saint, and he didn’t train in the Laws of the Earth. Naturally, he didn’t understand how truly incredible this residence formed from earth elemental essence was. Linley, however, did.
“Be it the Sacred Earthguard Armor or the forbidden-level spell which uses earth elemental essence to create the ‘World Protector’, there is a limit to how long the creations will last for.” Linley could hardly believe it.
He believed that since someone had created this manor, they couldn’t possibly go to the trouble of recreating it every hour.
“In addition, the color of the material the earth elemental essence has formed into…” Linley stared at the ancient-looking, plain black material of the residence. “It is the color of adamantine!” Linley knew that upon reaching the Deity-level, once a person used the Sacred Earthguard Armor, it would be at the ‘adamantine’ level.
An adamantine-level Sacred Earthguard Armor couldn’t be maintained for too long.
And yet, this person used it to create an entire manor?
“Someone came again?” The gate to the manor creaked open, and a bald, muscular man glanced outwards.
That Sati immediately bowed respectfully. “I pay my respects to Lord Burgess [Bo’ji’se].”
“You again?” The bald man frowned. “Oh, that’s right. Last time was ten years ago.” After finishing, the bald man looked at Linley and Bebe, his eyes carrying a hint of curiosity as he weighed Linley and Bebe for a long while.
Linley and Bebe both bowed modestly as well.
“My third brother is inviting you two in. As for you, go rest somewhere else.” The bald man said.
“Congratulations to the two of you.” Sati wasn’t angry at all. Instead, he congratulated Linley and Bebe.
Not just anyone who came to visit the Lord of Mount Copper Gong would be received. Sati immediately bowed, then left by himself.
“Mr. Burgess?” Linley spoke.
“I really don’t know what’s going on, but my third brother wishes to meet you two. Your luck is excellent.” The bald man pursed his lips while bringing Linley and Bebe into the manor. “Listen up. When you see my third brother, you need to be a bit more respectful.”
Linley and Bebe exchanged a glance, then laughed as they glanced around at their surroundings.
This manor, completely formed from earth elemental essence, gave a very comfortable to live in aura. In addition, in the inner courtyard of this manor, there were two seemingly mild-mannered middle-aged men engaging in chatter and laughter.
“I wonder which one of the two is the Lord of Mount Copper Gong?” Linley’s gaze rested upon these two people.
