Chapter 5: Dragon Sparrow Sword Inheritance

"Be careful, Your Highness!"

Mu Yuanye let out a cry of surprise from her cherry red lips.

She tiptoed and hurriedly approached Zhou Haochen, her pretty face full of anxiety.

If anything happens to the Thirteenth Prince in the mine, the entire Ministry of Works will be in trouble.

After a series of earthquakes, a bigger shake suddenly occurred.

It's like a flash flood!

It was like thunder exploding in the sky!

The force is so great and the power is so terrifying that it can cause mountains to collapse and rivers to flow backwards.

At this moment, the entire mine shook violently, giving Zhou Haochen a sense that it would collapse at any time.

If the hexagram hadn’t shown that there was no danger, Zhou Haochen wouldn’t have been able to remain calm.

Zhou Haochen leaned his crutches on the ground and, with the support of the crutches, stood as steady as a pine tree, more stable than anyone else.

Perhaps because his upper body was supporting two burdens, Mu Yuanye's center of gravity was unstable. He lost his balance and fell directly onto Zhou Haochen.

Zhou Haochen reached out and caught the pretty girl's soft and plump breasts, squeezing his arm.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry... I..."

Mu Yuanye's pretty face turned red with anxiety.

This nervous expression, coupled with her baby face, is so adorable.

The corner of Zhou Haochen's mouth twitched slightly.

That's it, take care of yourself?
Ji Kongzhao really has bad intentions!

"Be careful!"

"Ok!"

The sound coming from the girl's nose was as light as a mosquito's.

Your Highness Thirteen, so gentle.

It's a pity that such a good person is blind.

The master is studying the mechanism and it seems that he is about to succeed.

Next time, I will bring Prince Thirteen to see Master and ask Master to buy him a new pair of shoes.

The earthquake came quickly and went away quickly.

The vibration lasted for about five breaths and then stopped abruptly.

"Your Highness, are you hurt?" Ji Kongzhao asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, Master Ji. I am fine!"

Hearing this, Ji Kongzhao breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a minor official from the Ministry of Works came to report.

"Master Ji, there seems to be a troop hiding cave here."

"There are actually soldier hiding caves that have not been discovered?" Ji Kongzhao was stunned for a moment and exclaimed in surprise.

In order to wipe out the rebels in the Diyuan Mine, the entire mine, every inch of land, was thoroughly searched.

In addition, the Ministry of Industry has been operating and excavating the Diyuan Mine over the years and is well aware of the conditions inside the mine.

There are actually soldier caves that have not been discovered.

"Your Highness, let's go to the soldier cave and take a look."

“Maybe there will be gains.”

The soldier cave of the previous dynasty that was exposed by the earthquake was very close to the location of Zhou Haochen and his group, only less than ten feet away.

The entire soldier hiding cave was hidden five meters deep inside the mine tunnel, thus avoiding searches and remaining hidden for a thousand years.

After thousands of years, the remnants of the previous dynasty in the Soldier Cave have long been dead, and even their corpses have turned into a pile of bones.

The moment they walked into the soldier cave, the Bagua diagram reacted, golden light burst out, and a line of text emerged.

[Tiger Talisman of the Previous Dynasty: Half of a tiger talisman belonging to the general of the previous dynasty, contains the remaining dragon energy of the previous dynasty, and can be used to practice the Ancient Emperor Dragon Transformation Sutra.]

Dragon spirit!

Zhou Haochen's eyes narrowed.

It really takes no effort to get it without trying to find anywhere!

Dragon Qi is just a plug-in for the Ancient Emperor's Dragon Transformation Sutra.

Not only the dragon energy of the current dynasty can be used, but the dragon energy of the previous dynasty can also be used.

"Master Ji, did you gain anything from the hidden cave?"

"Your Highness, we have found half of a tiger talisman. It should be the half that belonged to the last great general of the previous dynasty."

"Why is the tiger talisman here?"

"In my opinion, after the last great general of the previous dynasty realized that he was powerless to save the situation, he arranged for his elite troops to hide in this hidden cave, hoping that they could escape the search and send the tiger talisman away."

"It's a pity that the soldiers hiding in the caves never got a chance to escape until they died."

Ji Kongzhao recalled the battle that took place.

The Diyuan Mine Cave was sealed off for several years, and the elite soldiers of the previous dynasty starved to death in the cave. "Although the tiger talisman is not a treasure, it is made of precious ores. If you ask the master of refining to remelt it, you can extract a lot of precious minerals."

"Show it to me."

Although he was curious about Zhou Haochen's behavior, Ji Kongzhao still handed the tiger talisman to Zhou Haochen and saw Zhou Haochen touching the broken end of the tiger talisman with his fingertips.

After touching it for a while, Zhou Haochen nodded slightly and hid the tiger talisman around his waist.

“This thing is good!”

Seeing Zhou Haochen embezzling the tiger talisman, Ji Kongzhao did not stop him.

There is nothing but a tiger talisman from the previous dynasty.

The Thirteenth Prince just took it.

Seeing that Ji Kongzhao didn't say anything, Zhou Haochen immediately understood that Ji Kongzhao had not discovered the dragon energy contained in the tiger talisman.

The dragon energy of the previous dynasty in the tiger talisman was hidden very deeply. If Zhou Haochen had not been reminded by the Bagua diagram, he would have missed this opportunity.

"Master Ji, the count of the Earthly Stones is complete, so leave as soon as possible."

"Got it, Your Highness!"

Soon, the group exited the mine.

Just as I returned to the ground, a minor official who was heading to the mine in the west came running towards me in a hurry, his expression flustered but also excited and agitated.

"Master Ji! Master Ji!"

"Calm down!"

"What happened?"

Ji Kongzhao shouted sternly, frowning slightly.

"Your Excellency, Fang Dongyun has inherited the legacy of the previous dynasty..."

Soon, Zhou Haochen knew the whole story.

The workers on their way to the western mine accidentally discovered the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

The Dragon Sparrow Sword was the sword worn by the last general of the previous dynasty.

The earthquake just now was caused by the appearance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

The Dragon Sparrow Sword was born and recognized Fang Dongyun as its master. Fang Dongyun also inherited the legacy of the great general of the previous dynasty.

"Fang Dongyun?"

"I remember that the seventh son of Marquis Linjiang is also called Fang Dongyun!"

Zhou Haochen blurted out Fang Dongyun's name after hearing it.

"Your Highness has a good memory. This person is Fang Dongyun, the seventh son of Marquis Linjiang." Ji Kongzhao replied.

"Although Fang Dongyun is a concubine's son, he is still the son of the Marquis. How could he be a minor official in the Ministry of Works? Didn't the Marquis of Linjiang arrange a place for him?" Zhou Haochen frowned, this was quite strange.

Ji Kongzhao coughed and cleared his throat.

"Your Highness, Fang Dongyun is not favored by Marquis Linjiang and is suppressed by Marquis Linjiang's wife in the Marquis's mansion."

"Even the position of a minor official in the Ministry of Works was obtained by Fang Dongyun through his own ability."

"The wife of the Marquis of Linjiang has repeatedly hinted to me to expel Fang Dongyun from the Ministry of Works."

"Master Ji didn't agree?"

"Hmph - a mere woman dares to interfere in the affairs of the Ministry of Handicrafts? If it weren't for the face of Marquis Linjiang, I would definitely report her!"

Ji Kongzhao flicked his sleeves, his face looking quite unhappy, and it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the wife of Marquis Linjiang.

"How is Fang Dongyun doing now?"

"Your Excellency, Fang Dongyun is currently refining the Dragon Sparrow Sword and accepting the inheritance. It will probably take some time..."

The clerk hadn't finished speaking.

A tyrannical, domineering and extremely fierce aura suddenly erupted from the mine in the west.

In an instant, the wind began to rise and the clouds surged, and the sky and the earth changed color.

The shadow of a giant sword appeared, reaching from heaven to earth, as if it was about to pierce through the clouds.

Such a grand momentum can be seen clearly not only in the eastern mine, but even by the people in Yujing City.

"Master Ji, what is the cultivation level of the last great general of the previous dynasty?"

"According to the records, it should be the eleventh realm of martial arts, celestial phenomena!"

Zhou Haochen immediately understood.

The third-grade opportunity in the Fire and Wind Cauldron hexagram refers to the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

The inheritance of a martial arts master at the eleventh level.

Its preciousness can be seen from this.

Fang Dongyun inherited the Dragon Sparrow Sword, and his momentum of soaring was unstoppable.

This hidden dragon will certainly attract the recruitment of the Crown Prince, the Second Prince and others, and drag him into the vortex of the fight for the throne.

Zhou Haochen did not regret missing out on the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

Although the inheritance of the Dragon Sparrow Sword is good, it is still not as good as the Ancient Emperor's Dragon Transformation Sutra, and it will also put oneself in the limelight, which is not worth the loss.
