Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor-Chapter 844 - 337: Gifted War God Spear

"This is what the City Lord instructed me to give you two," said a deputy general from Taiyuan City, handing two boxes to Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu.

After deciding to disband Taiyuan City, the City Lord stayed alone in the underground palace, intending to spend the next few decades accompanying Empress Fei.

As a token of gratitude, before Yun Sheng and the three others left, he sent gifts.

What rendered Yun Sheng speechless was that the City Lord only prepared two gifts, for Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu respectively.

Why wasn’t there one for her?

It was she who activated the time reversal magic.

Entrusted by Empress Fei as well, yet this City Lord seemed unsocial and unappreciative.

Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu opened their respective boxes.

Inside the boxes...

"War God Spear!"

To be precise, inside was a pair of "War God Spears."

All along, Yun Sheng and her companions, as well as everyone on the continent seeking the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, thought the War God Spear used by the first Martial God was a single divine weapon.

It wasn’t until the City Lord used the "War God Spear" to severely damage the Heart Difficulty Lamp did they realize the War God Spear was actually a pair of Qilin Arms, crafted from the front limbs of the Black Qilin King slain by the first Martial God. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

This pair of Qilin War God Spears can integrate into a person’s flesh, granting the arms indestructible destructive power.

However, the City Lord gifted this pair of War God Spears separately to Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu.

Ye Beiming received the Qilin War God Spear for the right arm, while Dugu Xiu received the Qilin War God Spear for the left arm.

Thus, the War God Spear was incomplete.

"Thank you, City Lord," Ye Beiming accepted the box, his expression composed.

So did Dugu Xiu.

"As for Doctor Yun, you must be curious as to why the City Lord didn’t offer you a gift," the deputy general noticed Yun Sheng’s slight displeasure.

"The City Lord said that when you return five hundred years later, you will see the gift he has for you," the deputy general conveyed the City Lord’s words.

Yun Sheng looked puzzled, five hundred years later?

"Time’s almost up, we need to hurry back," Ye Beiming reminded Yun Sheng.

"Are the two of you returning with me five hundred years later or?" Yun Sheng asked the opinions of the two Lion-tiger beasts before leaving.

These two Lion-tiger beasts were deputy generals to the City Lord of Taiyuan.

"Miss Yun, the crisis of Taiyuan City has been resolved, the world will see no more of Taiyuan City, history has transformed, and we two brothers can never return to our original forms due to magic. But we have no attachments left, you are our benefactor, and we wish to follow you for life," said the two Lion-tiger beasts in unison.

Upon hearing this, Yun Sheng had no objections, and she immediately crafted the magic array to return five hundred years later.

Inside the underground palace, the City Lord gazed at the War Spear in the coffin, as if hearing the soft call of Fei Lengyue, his hands had been severed, the edges of the bandages tinged with blood.

Once the War God Spear integrates into one’s body, retrieving it requires severing both arms.

The current City Lord of Taiyuan had become a cripple.

"City Lord, why do you harm yourself like this?" The City Lord’s two deputy generals were heartbroken upon seeing this.

"Those two are not virtuous; they both seek the War God Spear. Since I’ve given up the ambition of dominating, I should relinquish the War God Spear. With divine artifacts emerge chaos, it’s the younger generation’s world," the City Lord said with peace.

Although Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu showed no expression, both harbored thoughts of seizing the War God Spear from the City Lord’s hands.

The deputy generals remained silent.

"Leave now; I want to stay here quietly with Yueyue," the City Lord ordered everyone to exit the underground palace.

After the deputy generals exited, the magic array in the underground palace extinguished like a candle.

Then there was a rumbling, and after that, silence ensued.

"City Lord!" The deputy generals knelt by the magic array, tears falling.

Five hundred years later, still at Taiyuan Mountain.

The path of history suddenly reversed, yet the Taiyuan Ruins appeared unchanged.

After waiting for several days, Ru Yi brought disappointing news to everyone.

"Junior Fate said, causality cycles, destiny is predetermined. Whether those inside Taiyuan Castle can emerge alive depends on their heavenly destiny, external forces should not interfere."

"What heavenly destiny at such a time, the Magic Temple folks are just stubborn," Lan, having waited days without a clue and the thirty-six optimal rescue hours running out, raged.

"Indeed, talking about divine artifacts, now not even their shadow is visible, isn’t this fooling us," Cheng Bai worried about Ye Beiming’s whereabouts.

"If Prince Dugu comes to harm this time, Hou Qin won’t spare the Summoning Court and Magic Temple," Madam Bi, distressed about Dugu Xiu’s whereabouts, had been uneasy too.

Ru Yi wore a troubled expression, wondering how he became the scapegoat.

"Stop arguing, look at the sky!"

Qi, who had been closely watching the castle, suddenly sensed a change in the sky.

He looked up and saw that the purple cloud that had lingered atop Taiyuan Mountain for centuries was dispersing.

The sky returned to blue, sunlight spilling over the mountain peak.

The mountains clearer, winds gentler, the entire Taiyuan Ruins had rejuvenated like an old woman given new life, sparkling under the sun.

Meanwhile, Ru Yi noticed that the layer of magic restriction enveloping outside Taiyuan Castle had automatically dissolved.

"Quick, head inside immediately," everyone ceased observing the changes at Taiyuan Mountain, eager to enter the ruins to find the missing trio.

Upon entering the Demon Beast Corridor, everyone became alert.

The twenty Purple Gold statue demon beasts transformed back into beast form.

With few people left, facing the attack of twenty beasts meant undoubtedly a fierce battle.

Yet no one intended to retreat; with even a slight chance, they would enter the castle to search for Yun Sheng and the others.

After just a few steps, footsteps were heard from ahead.

At the end of the Demon Beast Corridor, three figures emerged.

"Yun Sheng!"

"Beiming!"

"Crown Prince!"

Originally worried, the group now rejoiced upon recognizing the trio.

But soon after, they tensed.

Because everyone saw, that behind the trio, or more precisely, behind Yun Sheng, were two Tiger-lion beasts akin to calves.

These two beasts carried the presence no less than that of King-level Magical Beasts, and adorned in Purple Gold Equipment, like the twenty Purple Gold Demon Beasts, these Tiger-lion beasts were clearly the leaders.
