“That is most likely true. However, for a weapon refiner to be able to cultivate a spirit weapon of this level, they must be something special,” Ling’er murmured as she nodded her head as well.
“How should I deal with the Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag?” asked Ye Mo.
“How to deal with it? Since it has already been cultivated, let’s keep it. This weapon is stronger than the Sky Blood Spear. When your Sky Blood Spear comes out, feed it with the Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag. Who knows, it may advance straight to the level of being a bejewelled weapon,” said Ling’er in a carefree manner.
This Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag was made with evil ingredients. It required the collection of virgin blood from 49 girls and the bones of an infant.
However, seeing that it has already been made, it would be a waste not to use it.
“Alright then. The Bloodsoul Aura can’t hurt me anyway.”
The Bloodsoul Skeleton Flag was on the smaller side. Though it could not fit inside the Dimensional Bracelet, Ye Mo could hide it in his sleeves.
After finishing everything he had to do, Ye Mo returned to the village once again, only to see the women of the village picking up the weapons from the hands of the bandits and striking the corpses ruthlessly, not caring that they were all naked.
These bandits killed their husbands, their fathers, their sons, and even raped them. Their hatred was enough to make some of the women who lived their whole lives sewing pick up the weapons and slice and cut the bandits’ corpses.
“Why? We villagers have no qualms with anyone. Why do we have to suffer such disasters?” One of the women, who had a more staunch appearance, started to break down in tears.
“Because all of you are too weak!” Ye Mo said gently as he directly landed in front of them.
“Too weak?” asked the woman.
“Yes. In the Tianwu Kingdom, no matter how much the Emperor protects you all and covers up for you all, all of you are ultimately people under his protection. This is because no one here is even a fighter. If you villagers all have some amount of power and strength, cultivate a talent from the village and send him or her to the big cities to train. After he has mastered his training, he shall return to the village to teach the new blood. Generation after generation of this, and your village will become a village filled with strong fighters sooner rather than later.”
“But the Emperor told us before that we are merely commoners, and that there is no need to train. All we have to do is trust him, and he will look after us,” the lady shook her head repeatedly as she said.
“Look after you? Would the Emperor have saved you just then? If you want to protect yourself, you need to rely on your own strength, not the protection from others. Understand?”
As he finished speaking, a few girls over the age of ten kneeled down and said together, “Big brother, I want to train, I want to become stronger, and I want to protect my own village.”
“Very good. There are pills and martial techniques that can be found on these bandits. These are all necessities for your training. In a month, I will order a strong fighter to come and teach all of you.”
As he spoke, Ye Mo stepped up in the air and left.
The girls of the village got down on their knees and bowed towards the direction where Ye Mo had flown off.
The village incident made Ye Mo even more resolute. If a kingdom wants to be powerful, merely depending on the Emperor was not enough.
It was almost as if the Emperor had brainwashed all those commoners, convincing them that they did not need to train and only had to trust him to be protected.
With Tianwu Kingdom being so large in scale, this village massacre incident would be nothing but a miniature of the kingdom.
Perhaps, league members will suddenly appear to save the commoners from danger when they are attacked by monsters or murdered by bandits, but they couldn’t depend on it. Instead, they trusted the Emperor with their hearts, thinking that it was he who protected them.
However, the way to truly avoid these incidents was to practice martial arts. Strengthening one’s own powers was the true meaning of protection.
It was Ye Mo’s wish for everyone to be a fighter. However, this was something that the Emperor did not allow. His power came from the trust from the public.
Ye Mo stepped in the air and mere moments later, he saw the long carriage team traveling smoothly along its journey.
“I am back!”
Ye Mo landed beside Manager Qi.
“The captain is back!” The escort team members all shouted.
“Young master, what were you doing just now?” Xiao Cao poked her head out and asked curiously.
Recalling what had just happened, Ye Mo could not help but shake his head. He replied, “Nothing much. I bumped into an Energy Shaping Eighth Realm monster and engaged in a big battle with it, in case it suddenly attacked our carriage team.”
“Are you injured?” Xiao Cao asked worriedly.
“Xiao Cao, Energy Shaping Eighth Realm monsters do not scare me.”
The two of them talked for a few more moments and then resumed their journey. As they neared the Heaven’s Wall City, the route appeared more peaceful.
A huge city slowly appeared in their sight. Due to a higher sea level in this area, while the whole city could normally be seen by one standing so far out, one could not see the borders of the city before their eyes.
As the carriage team pressed on, the city gradually appeared bigger and bigger until a 300-yard tall city wall appeared before their eyes. Everyone could not help but heave a sigh.
This was merely the city wall!
The words of Heaven’s Wall City were carved on the city door and gave off a golden glow. The inscription looked extremely majestic as it gave off a feeling of dominating authority. Anyone who stood here would feel extremely small and insignificant.
“This is the Heaven’s Wall City?”
Ye Mo was also slightly taken aback. A city of this scale was indeed worthy to be the Emperor’s Capital.
As the carriage team stopped at the entrance of the city, Manager Qi told Ye Mo, “Ye Mo, we are about to enter the Heaven’s Wall City. I have to remind you not attract too much attention. Any random disciple from the family clans here has a True Energy Realm fighter behind his back supporting him.”
“I understand!”
The Heaven’s Wall City gathered all the strongest families in the Tianwu Kingdom. The Cao Clan, who was the Emperor’s Imperial Guards, Tianguo Grand Marshal, the Chen Clan – they were all royal families of the Tianwu Kingdom. There was a Transcendence Realm fighter in every clan, too.
Manager Qi took out a mission card for the city entrance guards, and then the carriage team went ahead into the city.
As for Ye Mo, he marveled at finally entering the Heaven’s Wall City for real. The fighters of the escort team were all starting to get excited as well.
“This is the Heaven’s Wall City. The Ancient Martial City is not even half this size.”
“That’s for sure. The Emperor lives here. If I get to see the legendary Emperor, then this trip will be worth it.”
Riding past road after road, the carriage team stopped in front of a household. However, it was the backdoor of the house. Despite so, it was still extremely grand, with towers of tall buildings showing off a golden elegance.
This was the living quarters of the Qi Clan, the top royal household in the kingdom.
Thinking about Qi Ying living inside, Ye Mo heart fluttered in anticipation.
“Hmph, forget it. It doesn’t matter if I get to see Sister Qi Ying or not – what am I going to do if I do get to see her?”
Ye Mo gave up on that thought!
As the backdoor opened, an elderly man with white hair walked out. He appeared to be extremely skilled, and although his training level could not be detected, Manager Qi was extremely respectful towards the elderly man.
“Elder Qi, I heard that your carriage team was ambushed by the Cao Clan only for them to be defeated by the escort team,” the elder said as he stepped out of the house.
“Elder Bai, this time, it was all thanks to Ye Mo that our carriage team managed to return safely,” said Manager Qi.
“Which one of you is Ye Mo?” Elder Bai scanned the escort team members and, following that, cast his sight on the three Energy Shaping Eighth Realm fighters.
The attackers who ambushed the carriage team were from a sub-section of the Imperial Guards Reserves. Their strength levels were not to be belittled. It would take at least an Energy Shaping Ninth Realm fighter to be able to defeat them.
Ye Mo stepped forward and said respectfully, “I am the captain of the escort team this time. My name is Ye Mo.”
Hearing this, Elder Bai’s wrinkled face instantly showed a puzzled expression.
“That is most likely true. However, for a weapon refiner to be able to cultivate a spirit weapon of this level, they must be something special,” Ling’er murmured as she nodded her head as well.
