Peace Order-Chapter 100 - 69: The Supreme Treasure!
Chapter 100: Chapter 69: The Supreme Treasure!
The secluded spring in Shui Jian parted under the power of the starlight, and Li Guanyi’s clothes remained dry as he smoothly reached the heart of the secret realm, where Shaking Light, using the power of the East Continent Stargazing School, awakened the true visage of the realm, with the starlight flowing and transforming like swimming fish within the caverns.
Eventually, it transformed into the figure of a man standing with his hands behind his back, who then slightly turned.
It was General Xue.
Shaking Light had gone elsewhere to study the heritage left by the Shaking Light of five hundred years ago.
He lifted his eyes to look at Li Guanyi and said softly, "You’ve entered the realm, and with Shaking Light from the East Continent Stargazing School here as well, it seems you’ve come here to accept the true power of this secret realm. Such power is prepared for times of chaos. Has the world become chaotic again?"
Li Guanyi shook his head, "I don’t know."
General Xue smiled faintly and said, "Your body carries the brilliance of the stars, which is the Qi Mechanism that can only spill forth from major wars. Perhaps at this moment, the Qi Fortune of a nation has started to decline because of you."
Li Guanyi said, "It wasn’t me."
"There are others bearing the power of the White Tiger Seven Stars."
General Xue started to smile, and he said:
"I understand the White Tiger Seven Stars better than you. The stars in the sky are like water; they do not interfere with the changes in the mortal world but instead, the changes in the human realm are reflected in them. Since the starlight falls on you, it represents that in this war, you certainly played a significant role."
"How old are you?"
Li Guanyi replied, "Almost fourteen."
General Xue raised his eyebrow and smiled, "Fourteen years old, enough to influence the tide of a great war. Regardless of your role, even if it’s just a part, it’s enough to be proud of. The first time I led three thousand cavalry and broke through Earth Country, I was only three years older than you."
Li Guanyi twitched the corner of his eye.
He had only written a letter; it was the executor who was powerful.
But General Xue had truly taken up arms and done something similar.
The ancient Divine General said lightly, "With the Qi Fortune of the White Tiger manifesting in this world and a disciple of the East Continent Stargazing School appearing among men, this must be a sign of chaotic times. In my era, I left some gifts for you, but I was a bit perplexed then, thinking about what exactly would be the most useful thing to leave behind." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"Leaving behind immense wealth may not last for very long."
"Leaving behind peerless Martial Divine Weapons might instead lead to the decline of a family."
"Time is too lengthy, from a golden age to a chaotic world. Over such a long period, anything is possible, whether it’s immense wealth or peerless Divine Weapons, they can only function when met with the right people."
"For such people, what is most important?"
"I thought about it for a long time and finally found the answer."
General Xue looked at Li Guanyi and asked with a smile:
"What do you think is important if you want to stabilize a chaotic world?"
Li Guanyi thought for a moment and answered, "Money?"
General Xue looked at Li Guanyi and burst into laughter, "I thought the future generation would be obsessed with martial arts."
"But it turns out you’re obsessed with wealth."
"Why, has the Xue Family declined?"
Li Guanyi said, "As I said, I’m not from the Xue Family."
General Xue smiled and said, "What did you say?"
"Sorry, I’ve been dead for probably a few hundred years, my ears aren’t very good, I didn’t hear very clearly."
Li Guanyi fell silent.
After a moment, a sincere smile appeared on his face as he praised:
"Old thing!"
General Xue raised his hand.
Out of thin air appeared a Battle Halberd, which he grasped in a backhand hold and clang it down on Li Guanyi’s head; formed from starlight, the sound was loud though not very powerful. As he hit, the starlight scattered and the young man covered his forehead, grimacing:
"Can you hear more clearly now?"
General Xue said leisurely, "Somehow, my ears suddenly cleared up."
"Although you’re somewhat obsessed with wealth, what you said is correct. Even a Divine General, clad in Treasure Armor and wielding a Divine Weapon, leading armies with soaring momentum, needs the support of vast amounts of money and national power, not to mention the costs of feeding people and horses."
"Armor, Weapons, soldiers’ salaries."
"Steel materials, various herbs."
"The wear and tear of armors, compensations for the wounded and dead, all these require huge amounts of money. Even the greatest hero, with the vastest ambitions, without these supports, is like a fire, ultimately going to burn out one day, leaving behind only pallid ashes, nothing else."
"I don’t know how many years it’s been since my era; more than three hundred years before my time, the world was also in great chaos. Back then, the Emperor who bore the Red Dragon Dharma Form rose from obscurity. He beheaded a white serpent and then rebelled, supported by the Qingqiu Clan, marrying a daughter from an aristocratic family."
"He held Chi Xiao, the weapon most fitting with the Red Dragon Dharma Form, leading a bunch of country bumpkins."
"Then went on to conquer this world."
"Back then, he merely didn’t want to hand over his men to the Court and, after thinking it over and over, got drunk one day, and just rebelled on a whim, leading a band of riffraff across the chaotic world, living day by day on meat and wine."
"No one thought he could eventually win, not even he himself thought so."
"His opponent was the White Tiger Sect of that generation."
Li Guanyi was taken aback, and General Xue said, "The Azure Dragon and White Tiger, respectively belong to the east and west."
"The Heart Mansion of the Azure Dragon is Shang Su, and the fifth star of the White Tiger is Can Su."
