Chapter 115 The King of Shu's Intention
At the instruction of the great wizard, everyone else walked out of the inner hall, leaving only the great wizard and another person who was also wearing a golden mask.
The great wizard bowed and said, "Judge, they are here and are ready to treat you at any time!"
The judge didn't open his eyes, but just nodded.
The great wizard turned his head and nodded. Ian walked forward with Bigger and the fat man. This was the third person they had treated, and they had accumulated a lot of experience.
Since the two inner elixirs in his dantian were complete and he had reached the middle stage of the second level of the Nine Yang Qian Kun Divine Art, his Qi recovery speed was astonishing. He had almost recovered by the time he finished treating the Duke of Zhenguo during the day.
Seeing the King of Shu up close, his appearance has not changed except that he is bloodless, just like a wax figure. Although his eyes are closed, perhaps because of his status and fortune, he looks extremely noble.
Ian placed the four fingers of his right hand on King Shu's inner gate and slowly injected his true energy into it. He saw that the true energy in King Shu's meridians was also golden and had devouring power. Ian increased the output of his true energy, and he devoured it all. Ian was so scared that he immediately pulled his hand away.
Ian had to first confirm that the other party was infected with blood poison before he could let Pi Ge absorb it, but he didn't have time to check it just now before his true energy was devoured.
Ian simply climbed onto the bed, lifted up King Shu's hands, put his four palms together, and input his true energy through the Laogong acupoint. However, it was still swallowed up. Ian didn't believe it, and continued to increase the output of true energy.
Suddenly, Ian felt dizzy and his consciousness entered a foggy space. Standing in front of him was the King of Shu, wearing a golden crown and looking at him with a smile on his face.
Ian quickly bowed and saluted, "I, Ian, greet His Majesty the King of Shu."
"Stand up, Ian, you're finally here!"
Ian was horrified. Was this a trap?
"King Shu, I don't understand what you mean."
"Don't be afraid. I've been waiting for you for four years. I will explain everything to you clearly. In the meantime, I need your help."
"Your Majesty, please tell me. If there is anything I can do, I will do it. But Your Majesty, I am treating you and you are consuming my energy. If you continue, I am afraid you will suck me dry."
"Hahaha, don't worry, my golden holy energy will only help you. If you don't believe me, you can feel it carefully!"
It was very strange, but Ian could indeed sense the condition of his body. His true qi was "swallowed", then cleansed by the golden holy qi of the King of Shu and then transported back. The sea of Nine Yang true qi carried some golden holy qi, and the fusion of the two true qi further increased the strength of the true qi. He didn't feel it at first because the true qi output was not enough.
Ian was overjoyed. "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
King Shu raised his hand and said, "Don't worry about your true qi. After a long time, your inner elixir will truly undergo a qualitative change."
"Actually, I don't have any blood poison in my body. The blood poison of the vampires has no effect on me. I was just pretending."
"Why did you do this? What does this have to do with what you said about waiting for me to arrive?"
The King of Shu smiled and said, "It is very relevant. Let me explain it to you slowly—"
"Ancient Shu has been passed down for 87,000 years, and has always upheld the responsibility of protecting the entire continent. We are the true indigenous people of the continent. The Shen'en Continent has experienced too many crises. The monsters, demons, ghosts, and blood races have invaded and harmed humans too many times.
Even now, we, the ancient Shu, are fighting against the demon race.
Eighteen years ago, the great wizard observed the stars at night and found that the celestial phenomena had changed, but he could not calculate anything. Five years ago, the stars changed again. After the great wizard calculated at the risk of being seriously injured and suffering a backlash, he found that our Shen'en Continent is about to face a huge catastrophe and may even be destroyed. At the same time, all twelve spirit beads will appear in the world.
This was a catastrophe. At this moment, some special symbols appeared in the calculations of the great wizard. After the great wizard's research, he roughly understood their meaning.
Five years later, opportunity will come to ancient Shu.
At that time, the Pang family of the human race in the ancient Shu territory was invaded by the vampires. We in ancient Shu took action, but we were not fully prepared. The Duke of Zhenguo and I were both injured. Although the blood poison had no effect on me, I could not help the Duke of Zhenguo either.
After we came back, we all chose to stay in seclusion, because during this period of time, many people who hold real power in Ancient Shu were controlled by foreign races. Apart from the great wizard and the Duke of Zhenguo, I don’t know who I can trust. Ancient Shu has entered the most critical time.
Because of this, I simply played along and pretended to be poisoned, waiting for your arrival before considering how to deal with it."
This is the disadvantage brought about by the centralization of power. However, as long as the King of Shu is not overthrown, they dare not come openly and can only nibble away at it step by step.
Ian asked doubtfully:
"Your Majesty, I have a question."
"Say it!"
"How do you know we are the ones you are waiting for?"
The King of Shu laughed and said:
"It's very simple. When you first met the Great Wizard, he found out that the four of you, including the two spirit beasts, were not simple. You were able to cure the blood poison that left everyone helpless. When you were fighting with the Star Soul, the magical Luoshu appeared. When you were treating me just now, your true Qi carried extremely pure and righteous energy. And you came here five years later. Who else could you be?"
Ian suddenly realized that the fat man's basalt shield was actually the divine weapon Luoshu. "I see. Your Majesty, what are your plans? How do you need our Avengers team to cooperate?"
“Very good, you don’t need to intervene in Gu Shu for the time being, and your strength is not enough.
I see there are only four of you in the Avengers team, what do you think of Star Soul?"
Ian understood what King Shu meant. "Xinghun is very talented, upright, and has rare spiritual beasts. If he is willing to join our team, it will be a great help."
Ian was telling the truth. Their team lacked a powerful warrior, and Xinghun was the most suitable candidate.
"Well, a team is not strong just because of the strength of each individual, nor is it strong just because of the random number of people. What it needs is your close friendship. Tomorrow I will arrange for you to go to the demon clan battlefield for training. You must grow up as quickly as possible.
I can't help you with more. Everything depends on you. It's best if you can cultivate a group of your own forces. Whether it's helping us ancient Shu to clean up the termites or fighting against future disasters, you will have your own confidence. "
Ian couldn't believe that the ancient Shu people were not as closed and unkind as rumored. They had a big picture, great love and sense of responsibility.
This showed them a bright future, and Ian's respect for the King of Shu became extremely high.
But he still had one thing to do, "Your Majesty, I have another request, I hope you can help me!"
The King of Shu said, "In private, you don't have to call me Your Majesty anymore. Just call me Uncle. Tell me what's going on."
