Chapter 473: The Third Mysterious Scroll
September 25, 2017
Lu HaiKong was indeed curious about Wuyun Qi Qi Ge's arrival.
Speaking of which, it had been almost a year since he last saw this woman.
Although Lu HaiKong didn't have a good impression of her, he couldn't say he disliked her either.
So, when he heard that this woman was visiting, although he was a little surprised, he quickly decided to meet her.
After a year, this woman still maintained her allure, and her strength had increased to 79 points. She was just one step away from reaching 80, truly deserving of being called a top-tier talent.
Accompanying Qi Qi Ge were the four handmaidens who had taken care of Lu HaiKong for a period of time.
Even though they had known Lu HaiKong's identity for a long time, when they saw him, their eyes widened in disbelief, feeling it was quite unbelievable.
They couldn't believe that the powerful and arrogant man from back then was actually the Marquis of Bingzhou, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops and defeating the Wu and Xian rebels' army of four hundred thousand.
Compared to them, Wuyun Qi Qi Ge seemed relatively calm. She got straight to the point, "I'm here to ask for something, something you took from our tribe."
"The Ice Crystal Snow Lotus, right?"
Lu HaiKong's combat strength had improved recently, and his Purple Qi Ascending Dragon Technique had reached level six. With a combat strength of 85, his perception had become even sharper. He sensed a cold power from Qi Qi Ge's body, and immediately recalled the Ice Crystal Snow Lotus he had taken from their tribe a year ago, understanding the woman's intention.
"Yes!" Wuyun Qi Qi Ge nodded, her eyes gleaming with anticipation as she looked at Lu HaiKong.
"Give it to me, and I'll return what you want." Lu HaiKong said calmly, "Don't tell me it originally belonged to you. I believe you're not that naive!"
Although Lu HaiKong hadn't seen this woman for almost a year, he still understood her.
This past year hadn't been easy for her.
Although she had gained control of the Wuyun Tribe and become its leader, she was, after all, a woman, and her leadership was not secure.
In just one year, she had experienced seven rebellions. Although she managed to resolve each one, the Wuyun Tribe had been weakened by these repeated revolts. Now, the tribe had less than ten thousand members, and over ninety percent of them were women. The other tribes mocked them as the 'Women's Tribe.'
After experiencing so many rebellions, this woman had matured significantly compared to a year ago, and she seemed well-prepared for this visit.
Indeed, she soon gave Lu HaiKong a pleasant surprise.
"I'll trade this for it."
As Wuyun Qi Qi Ge spoke, she placed a scroll in front of Lu HaiKong. He had initially been indifferent, but his attention was immediately drawn to the scroll.
This scroll was the very same mysterious scroll Lu HaiKong had used to comprehend the Mountain Splitting Axe and Sea Shattering Axe techniques.
"This item is a set with the axe you took before. As far as I know, that axe is still your weapon, so I think you must be interested in this."
It had to be said that Wuyun Qi Qi Ge was quite lucky. With Lu HaiKong's current influence, he wasn't very interested in ordinary things, but this scroll she presented had indeed moved him.
After Lu HaiKong gained control of the 'Foreigner House,' he had held an auction there and actively sought to acquire this type of mysterious scroll.
This mysterious scroll is indeed rare, and even fewer are willing to sell it. Lu Hai Kong managed to acquire some, but they were not related to the Mountain Splitting Axe or the Sea Shattering Axe lineages.
However, the mysterious scroll presented by Wuyun Qi Qi Ge was different. Lu Hai Kong could vaguely sense that it was what he had been seeking.
As soon as he saw it, Lu Hai Kong stood up straight and readily agreed, "Alright, it's a deal. Wait here, I'll have someone fetch it for you."
While Lu Hai Kong was speaking, Chen Ping had already arranged for someone to handle the matter.
Wuyun Qi Qi Ge didn't hesitate and handed the mysterious scroll to Lu Hai Kong, who immediately performed an appraisal technique upon receiving it.
Mysterious Scroll
Description: Seems to contain a mysterious and powerful heritage of insight. After comprehension, one will obtain formidable power.
Insight Requirements: Basic Axe Technique 50, Combat Strength 90.
It was evident that this scroll was related to the Mountain Splitting Axe and Sea Shattering Axe lineages, even though the records didn't explicitly state it. Lu Hai Kong could sense the same aura emanating from the scroll.
The only issue was the high prerequisites. Lu Hai Kong had not practiced his Basic Axe Technique much since reaching level 35, and after a year, his skill was only slightly below level 40. However, he had accumulated a substantial amount of skill experience points during this time, and if he used them, he could easily reach level 50. The challenge was in breaking through the Combat Strength 90 threshold, which was not an easy feat.
Although Lu Hai Kong had a Divine Martial Pill, he was somewhat proud of his martial prowess and didn't believe that Combat Strength 90 would be an insurmountable hurdle. So, he wanted to do it himself and save the pill.
Of course, Lu Hai Kong's thoughts were his own, but the important thing was that he had obtained the item.
A few hours later, Wuyun Qi Qi Ge chose to leave after acquiring the Ice Crystal Snow Lotus.
Lu Hai Kong didn't stop her and let her go.
After Qi Qi Ge's departure, Lu Hai Kong spent another day at the ranch.
The gestation period of the two hundred mares was approaching, and Wang Shou's estimation was accurate. Within a day, all two hundred mares gave birth.
Two hundred foals were born, and Lu Hai Kong eagerly inspected each one.
The inspection brought great joy to Lu Hai Kong.
The Beast Heart indeed surprised Lu Hai Kong, as some of the foals underwent a transformation.
Although the probability was not high, there were twenty foals with low-level talents that could grow to a Combat Strength of 59, and three foals with intermediate talents that could reach 79.
Based on this probability, with one thousand mares, Lu Hai Kong could obtain several hundred mutated or exotic elite foals.
While the number wasn't substantial, it was enough to secure mounts for his warrior generals.
If these foals could be raised and bred, Lu Hai Kong might even be able to form a cavalry unit equipped with exotic mounts in the near future.
Lu Hai Kong was overjoyed with the outcome and immediately recalled Wang Yi's three armies and three battalions, specifically tasked with guarding the ranch.
