I Can Devour Spirits

He thought this way because he felt that if anyone were to use this Frost Patterned Phosphor Crystal Saber, wouldn’t Zhu He be reminded of someone upon seeing it?

But Wu Shidao thought again, Duan Rong had already gained Zhu He’s favor, and as soon as he entered Yunfu Peak, he was given two bottles of Primordial Beast Spinal Bone Bone Marrow Ash. There was no need to use such means to gain favor, right?

Wu Shidao closed the booklet. He was only responsible for informing Zhu He about the background of the matter. As for Duan Rong’s motives or the possibility that it was just a coincidence, that was for Zhu He to consider.

For other matters, whenever Zhu He sought his opinion, he would express his views as a reference. But when it came to issues among fellow disciples, he was only responsible for reporting, and whenever Zhu He occasionally asked for his opinion on these matters, he usually kept silent.

When Duan Rong woke up from a nap, it was just the crack of dawn. He jumped out of bed and, with hardly any pause, left the room.

He walked slowly to the door, took the copper lock and key from the table behind the door. There wasn’t much in this room, but the behavior of the servant yesterday made him feel it was better to lock the door.

Initially, he thought Yunfu Peak was very well-disciplined. Now it seemed otherwise, and he felt it was better to establish boundaries himself for easier coexistence.

Duan Rong locked the door properly and secured it with the copper lock before walking along the corridor.

About half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Geng, carrying his weapons, was ready to go to the mountains to train. As he walked through the corridor and passed Duan Rong’s room, he was surprised to find a copper lock hanging on the door.

”This kid, his temper has changed! Up this early today?!”

Meanwhile, in another part of the Endless Mountains, a figure darted across a cliff on an iron chain.

The figure landed on a severed cliff, and it was indeed Duan Rong.

Duan Rong looked at the very familiar peak in front of him, and a mixed feeling arose in his heart.

This was Shang Xiangyu’s peak, where he had stayed for three years as a Registered Disciple.

The reason Duan Rong had come here again was because he was very familiar with this place, and it was a desolate and remote peak that stayed uninhabited for years.

Duan Rong first wandered around a few stone caves, finding that everything inside was covered with dust.

The stone chamber that belonged to Shang Xiangyu had even been taken over as a nest by two giant eagles. When Duan Rong entered, he startled them, but with his ghost-like swiftness, he quickly retreated.

The stone chamber of Shang Xiangyu had been turned upside down by Yang Yi years ago, and there was nothing worth lingering over. Since the giant eagles had taken over, let them have it.

Duan Rong exited the stone caves by the cliff and went into the dense forest.

In the deep pool in the forest, he took a comfortable bath and then caught two mountain pheasants to roast and eat on a large boulder nearby.

Sitting on the large boulder, eating the crispy outside and tender inside pheasant meat, Duan Rong suddenly thought of Xiao Yu, Ximen Kankan, and the others.

Back then, they lived together on this peak, often practicing martial arts and eating in this forest.

But now, though the forest remained, only he was left alone.

Xiao Yu, Ximen Kankan, Shen Mizi, Liu Shushan, they were all still in the Tower Forest.

Duan Rong was not too worried about Ximen Kankan and Liu Shushan. Especially Ximen Kankan, Duan Rong felt that Tower Forest was just the right place for him.

This guy, when nothing was allowed to entertain him, he could only focus on training! And he would train hard if he wanted to leave the Tower Forest sooner.

As long as he could focus on martial arts, Duan Rong believed that with Ximen Kankan’s talent and intelligence, leaving the Tower Forest shouldn’t be difficult.

As for Liu Shushan, there was nothing more to say; this kid even crossed the red line in the Deep Valley test back then.

Although Shen Mizi’s talent might not be as good as Ximen Kankan and Liu Shushan, Duan Rong felt that her leaving the Tower Forest shouldn’t be a big problem either.

What worried Duan Rong most was Xiao Yu.

During those three years as Registered Disciples, from their comprehension of martial arts, Duan Rong could tell that Xiao Yu’s talent was somewhat lacking. He often had to explain many times before Xiao Yu could understand anything.

Moreover, in the Deep Valley test back then, Xiao Yu had only barely crossed the first white line.

Duan Rong was a bit concerned about whether Xiao Yu could ultimately achieve the Realm of True Qi Realm Great Perfection.

If she could never reach True Qi Realm Great Perfection, would she be forever trapped in the Tower Forest, becoming bones in the tower?

Duan Rong felt that regarding this matter, he should find an opportunity to ask Wu Shidao and the others. If an Inner Sect Disciple cannot achieve True Qi Realm Great Perfection, will they be forever trapped in Tower Forest?
