Speaking of the great battle between Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect back then, Yang Wudi frowned, his face full of anger.
"The cause of that incident was Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect, killing Qian Xunji, the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall."
(Excerpt content)
"Your mother left after leaving you with these words!"
"After that, you slowly grew up, until now!"
When Yun Ming heard his Grandpa relaying his mother's last words, a firm light flashed in his eyes, and his lips were tightly pursed, as if trying to suppress the Emotion in his heart. However, when he lowered his head, a teardrop still quietly slid from the corner of his eye, silently falling into his palm. He quickly wiped away the tears, looked up at the car window, trying to cover up the sadness in his heart with a strong look.
But the tears were like a burst flood, constantly Surging from the corners of his eyes, flowing down his cheeks, wetting his clenched fists. Despite his efforts to control it, the pain and sadness in his heart could not be suppressed, and tears became his undisguised vulnerability.
When Yang Wudi saw his Grandfather crying, a feeling of indescribable heartache welled up in his heart. His brow furrowed, and his eyes revealed deep concern and worry. Yang Wudi knew that Yun Ming's strength was something he had cultivated since he was a child, and he knew how to face difficulties and setbacks.
However, seeing Yun Ming cry, Yang Wudi's heart was still deeply touched. He understood that no matter how hard Yun Ming tried to control his Emotions, the pain and sadness in his heart could not be completely concealed. Yang Wudi silently sat down next to Yun Ming, using his presence to tell him that no matter when or where, Grandpa would be by his side, giving him endless support and care.
Yun Ming felt his Grandpa's presence and temporarily suppressed the sadness in his heart, asking the question he had after hearing this past experience.
"So, who was the one who killed my parents? Is he still alive? And back then, from the beginning to the end of that war, Tang Hao never showed his face? So many of our clansmen died, and we don't even know why Tang Hao killed the Spirit Hall Supreme Pontiff?!"
Hearing his Grandfather mention the culprit who killed his daughter and son-in-law, Yang Wudi was resentful but also helpless, because that person was not only powerful, but also held a high position in Spirit Hall. Yang Wudi could not disregard the safety of the Breaking Clan to seek revenge.
"He's still alive. That person is Gu Li, the current Deputy Head of the Supreme Pontiff Palace's Knights!"
"Ming'er! Remember! Do not act rashly unless you have absolute certainty of protecting yourself and your Family's safety!!!" When talking about this person, Yang Wudi solemnly reminded Yun Ming.
After learning the identity of his enemy, Yun Ming's killing intent soared, but for the time being, he could only endure it.
Seeing this, Yang Wudi continued to answer Yun Ming's second question. Thinking of this, Yang Wudi also showed a wry smile at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes revealed a self-deprecating expression.
"As for Tang Hao's question! The Clear Sky Sect didn't say anything to us. We never saw Tang Hao from beginning to end!"
Yun Ming stopped talking after hearing his Grandpa's answer, and Yang Wudi was also immersed in his own Emotions and stopped speaking. The carriage fell into a strange silence.
It's just that under this superficial silence, there is a flame of anger raging in the depths of the hearts of both Grandfather and Grandpa. When the flame erupts, no one knows whether it will burn itself to ashes or sweep across the entire Douluo Continent!
After a long time, Yun Ming looked at his Grandpa and said in a low voice.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have forced you!"
"I know you don't want me to get involved in these things too early, but you know, I can't escape! And I won't escape! Right?!"
"I promise you, I will protect myself, with my own safety as the primary task, and then I will find out the truth and seek revenge!"
Yang Wudi heard Yun Ming speak and looked up at Yun Ming's eyes. From Yun Ming's eyes, Yang Wudi seemed to see a raging flame. He didn't know if Yun Ming could do it, but now he could only believe him. Yang Wudi silently responded.
"Alright!"
Yinchuan City is not far from the Star Dou Great Forest, only about two hundred kilometers away.
That night, the Grandfather and Grandpa arrived at Soul Hunting Town, which was about a hundred kilometers away from the Star Dou Great Forest. Soul Hunting Town, as the name suggests, was formed because of hunting Spirit Beasts, allowing Spirit Masters to rest and handle Spirit Beast Materials.
The Grandfather and Grandpa rested in the town for one night, and set off early the next morning to enter the Star Dou Great Forest.
The Star Dou Great Forest is located in the due north of the Star Luo Empire, spanning the Two Great Empires. It is the leading gathering place of wild Spirit Beasts, not only possessing the most complete range of Spirit Beast categories, but also the most powerful overall strength and high-end Battle! power.
No one knows how long the Star Dou Great Forest has existed, but judging from the towering ancient trees that Yun Ming saw after entering the forest, it has existed for a long time.
Stepping into the forest, the trees that Yun Ming saw were no less than twenty meters in height, and this was only the periphery of the forest. The trees were dense, jagged, and it was impossible to see the deeper scenery.
"Ming'er, always be vigilant. The danger in this Star Dou Great Forest is everywhere, not only Spirit Beasts, but also many poisonous herbs and flowers that are difficult to find outside!" Yang Wudi solemnly reminded Yun Ming.
"Yes, Grandpa!" Yun Ming responded seriously, and took out a silver spear from the emerald phoenix cry ring on his index finger. As for why he didn't use the Atlas Spear, Yun Ming's spirit power was not enough to maintain the Atlas Spear for a long time.
Seeing that Yun Ming was ready, Yang Wudi waved his hand and shouted.
"Let's go!"
Yun Ming led the way, and Yang Wudi guarded and protected him from behind, with a distance of about half a body between them.
The trees in the Star Dou Great Forest are lush, and there is no road. Yun Ming had to clear the way with the silver spear in his hand. Yang Wudi followed behind Yun Ming, maintaining a high degree of vigilance around him.
Along the way, they encountered many Spirit Beasts, such as the Rodent Weasel, the Mottled Cat, the Lone Bamboo, the Nightmare Rabbit, etc. While Yang Wudi let Yun Ming fight these low-level Spirit Beasts to hone his Battle! skills, he also taught Yun Ming about the knowledge of wild Spirit Beasts and some precautions and taboos in Spirit Beast gathering places.
In addition to Spirit Beast-related knowledge, Yang Wudi also found many poisonous herbs along the way, and also introduced them to Yun Ming one by one, what their functions were, when to use them, how to detoxify them, etc., and these poisonous herbs were obviously more exciting to Yang Wudi than Spirit Beasts.
"Ming'er, this is the Three-Lobed Ragweed. The pollen of this grass is very easy to cause allergies, not only causing problems such as coughing, sneezing, and asthma, but also stimulating tears, and even irritating exposed skin, causing symptoms such as redness and itching. In the future, if you don't like someone and want to teach them a lesson, just use this."
"Look, Ming'er, this is a Poinsettia. The whole plant of this grass is poisonous, and the white sap can stimulate skin redness and swelling. If you accidentally eat the stems and leaves, there is a risk of poisoning and death. It is an essential poison for home travel and invisible killing!"
"Ming'er, and this, Abrus precatorius seeds contain a deadly poison called Abrin. Eating it by mistake will cause poisoning and death."
"This is Datura, which can produce anesthesia, but it doesn't work very well."
Yun Ming: "."
In just one day, Yun Ming was amazed by various poisonous herbs. It just made Yun Ming have a small question. His Grandpa Yang Wudi, an extreme attack enthusiast, whose spirit rings are all extreme attack types, how could he be so interested in poisons, which are biased towards unorthodox things? Yun Ming couldn't figure it out.
After a day, Yun Ming defeated many ten-year and hundred-year Spirit Beasts, but only defeated them, not killed them. It wasn't because he wanted to leave enough Spirit Beast resources for future generations or anything like that. It was purely because it was unnecessary.
After all... Yun Ming was not a bloodthirsty pervert. It's just a pity that he didn't encounter the Mirage Beast and Illusion Scale Snake he wanted, not even a lower-level alternative beast.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yang Wudi also said.
"Ming'er, let's find a place to camp first. There are still suitable Spirit Beasts to find!"
Yun Ming had no objection. Soon, the Grandfather and Grandpa set up a tent next to a complex depression, and also sprinkled insect-repellent and snake-repellent powder around it.
At night, inside the camp
Yang Wudi made a pile of bonfire and began to teach Yun Ming the Breaking Clan's exclusive meditation method.
As for not being able to light a fire in the Star Dou Great Forest at night? Yang Wudi said that in this outer area of Star Dou, what can I do if I light a fire? If any ignorant Spirit Beast dares to come, it will be a good meal at night to supplement the nutrition for the Grandfather!
