Berserk God of War

Chapter 403: Chapter 403: Turning Clumsiness into Skill

Meanwhile, Sikong Jing quietly sensed the meridians of Qin Heng’s Demon Dragon mount from within its belly.

Having nothing else to do, he decided to comprehend the new Demon Dragon Meridians to pass the time.

This Demon Dragon mount of Qin Heng was none other than the Emperor Dragon, also one of the five inner cores Sikong Jing had obtained at the auction.

It was also the only one he had not swallowed yet.

Using this time, he planned to swallow the inner core of the Emperor Dragon, synergizing internally and externally to create a new Beast Skill.

As for why he could convince the Emperor Dragon to hide him within its belly with just a few words.

It was simple because Sikong Jing was the Master of Ten Thousand Beasts.

Although he had not revealed his identity to the Emperor Dragon, the latter subconsciously trusted Sikong Jing, a trust imposed by bloodline suppression...

Most importantly, Sikong Jing said he could save Qin Heng, and of course, the Emperor Dragon did not hesitate to agree.

About a quarter of an hour had passed when the Emperor Dragon finally stopped.

It landed in the courtyard where Qin Heng was located, and just as Sikong Jing was about to assess the surroundings, footsteps suddenly sounded.

Then, the voice of Master Wen Hu unexpectedly emerged.

”Emperor Dragon, what do you think I should do?”

”Now, every member of Vice Palace Master Qin’s family is being monitored, and Lei Hongteng is ambitiously eyeing the Vice Palace position. If he succeeds in becoming the Vice Palace Master, the Long Night Saint Dragon Palace will definitely have no future.”

”Lei Hongteng even forbids us from seeking the Medical Master, and Vice Palace Master Qin can hardly hold on any longer.”

At this point, Master Wen Hu’s voice carried a deep bitterness and despair.

”And all of us who are staunchly defending Vice Palace Master Qin’s home will probably die.”

”Lei Hongteng will definitely not let us live to report to Palace Master Shen in the future... If you could speak, and you were stronger, it would be great if you could take Vice Palace Master Qin to the Holy Dragon General Academy.”

Even though he said that, Master Wen Hu knew it was impossible.

As soon as the Emperor Dragon left, it would definitely be monitored, at least clear surveillance until it entered the Cloud Layer.

Thus, it couldn’t possibly take Qin Heng away.

Nor could it bring anyone in; they would also be surveilled as they descended through the Cloud Layer.

As for speaking, the Emperor Dragon’s level was not yet high enough to articulate human speech.

However, at that moment, Master Wen Hu suddenly heard a familiar voice: ”Master Wen Hu, is anyone watching around?”

Upon hearing it, Master Wen Hu almost jumped, staring incredulously at the Emperor Dragon.

”Master Wen, I am Sikong Jing. If no one is watching around, then I am coming out.”

Sikong Jing’s voice emerged again, startling Master Wen Hu so much that he almost thought he was hallucinating.

After quite a while, Master Wen Hu finally came to his senses, realizing the voice was coming from within the clothing of Emperor Dragon.

”No, this is Vice Palace Master Qin’s house, temporarily guarded by us loyalists.”

As soon as he spoke, the Emperor Dragon opened its mouth, and Sikong Jing flashed out from within its belly.

Although Master Wen Hu was mentally prepared, the sight of Sikong Jing still made him rub his eyes frantically.

Not until he confirmed it was really Sikong Jing did he stop.

Then he instinctively looked around and hastily pulled Sikong Jing into a corner where no one could see.

”Sikong Jing, how did you get here? Weren’t you dead? You, you...”

Master Wen Hu spoke incoherently, eventually pointing at the Emperor Dragon and then at Sikong Jing, his mind unable to make sense of it all.

”It was simple, I just hid inside the stomach of the Emperor Dragon,” he explained.

”We don’t have much time left, Lei Hongteng will soon convene the Saint Dragon Congress and I must heal Vice Palace Master Qin quickly,” he continued.

Then, Sikong Jing briefly described the situation at Fire Dragon Mountain.

Wen Hu was of course shocked into speechlessness, especially when he heard Sikong Jing planned to use two Dragon Veins to treat Qin Heng, almost thinking Sikong Jing was boasting extravagantly.

The primal forces of Golden Dragon and Cloud Dragon Mountain Paths, how could that be possible?

However, Sikong Jing immediately conjured two types of Dragon Vein True Qi, leaving Wen Hu with no choice but to believe.

It felt just like a dream, the Spirit Martial Root Sikong Jing had succeeded in challenging three mountain paths, which was utterly inconceivable.

With no time to dwell further, Wen Hu calmed himself fiercely and hurriedly said, ”You wait here for a moment, just in case. I will now go and clear out the house servants and others around Vice Palace Master Qin.”

After speaking, Wen Hu left from a corner first.

Soon after, he returned and took Sikong Jing through a dark corridor into Qin Heng’s room.

Upon entering, Sikong Jing saw Qin Heng lying on the bed with a deathly pale face, in a state of severe coma, his aura extremely chaotic and weak, barely clinging to life.

It looked as though he could be in danger of losing his life at any moment.

Through Wen Hu’s explanation, Sikong Jing learned that ever since his return a few days ago, Qin Heng had been in this condition.

The Qin Family was also being monitored and restrained by Lei Hongteng, who did not allow them to seek medicine or doctors, hence Qin Heng had not received any treatment at all...

As days passed, the situation grew increasingly worse.

Having heard all this, Sikong Jing took a deep breath, slowly approached Qin Heng, and helped him sit up.

Then, he said to Wen Hu, ”Master Wen, my power may leak some energy. Please keep my aura contained within the room.”

Wen Hu nodded gravely in response...

Following that, Sikong Jing’s hands radiated with the True Qi of two Dragon Veins, striking the center of Qin Heng’s back.

In that instant, Qin Heng’s whole body shook violently; he reflexively widened his eyes, then subconsciously began to absorb Sikong Jing’s Dragon Vein True Qi frantically, draining Sikong Jing’s entire reservoir of True Qi.

Gradually, Qin Heng’s deathly pale complexion turned rosier, his eyes slowly regained vitality, and his spirit became increasingly lively.

Only when Sikong Jing withdrew his hands did Qin Heng finally fully awake.

The next instant, Qin Heng spoke hoarsely, ”Where am I?”

Wen Hu’s entire body trembled with excitement, and he rushed over, crying while explaining what had happened.

These past few days, the pressure they faced had been immense, and now they finally had a backbone again.

When Qin Heng heard about Lei Hongteng’s actions, a cold light flickered fiercely in his eyes, along with rampant killing intent... When he heard that it was Sikong Jing who had saved him using the power of two Holy Dragon Mountain Paths, his mind was completely blown.

In disbelief, he looked at a somewhat weakened Sikong Jing and murmured, ”So it was you who succeeded at challenging the mountain paths!”

Qin Heng’s shock was no less than that of Huo Yanmei before him, because he was more familiar with Sikong Jing.

It was he who had personally tested Sikong Jing’s Martial Root and Martial Vein, and it was he who had personally declared that Sikong Jing was a Spirit Martial Root.

Even more crucially, he remembered that back in the Northern Mountain, Palace Master Shen Qingye had received a notification from the Seven Transformation Divine Dragon about a student’s successful challenge of the Golden Dragon Mountain Path...

And at that time, he could never have imagined it would be Sikong Jing!

At this moment, Sikong Jing chuckled and said, ”It seems Vice Palace Master Qin knew, but the only reason was because you didn’t give me the Golden Dragon Token, which forced me to challenge the Golden Dragon Mountain Path when I wanted to go to the Martial Dragon Palace at Golden Dragon Mountain.”

It was because Qin Heng had only given him a Qin Family Order back then and forgot to give him the Golden Dragon Token needed to go up the Golden Dragon Mountain, inadvertently leading to Sikong Jing’s bizarre challenge of the mountain path.

Upon hearing this, Qin Heng couldn’t help but space out again—it really was a quirk of fate!
