The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 401

Chapter 401 Attach To Azure Dragon

As a master of spiritual energy, Lin Hong was naturally more interested in the Rock King’s unique restrictions than the others.

He quickly asked, “Heart and soul chains? What kind of restrictions? How could they be so powerful?”

Zhang Liang smiled indifferently and said, “This is a professional issue. I might not be able to explain it clearly for a while.”

“You only need to know that this is a technique created by the Rock King after he cultivated the Heart and Soul True Solution. Other than him, no one else knows how to use it, and no one else can understand it.”

“As for his role, it is self-evident. Apart from being able to restrict the invasion of foreign spiritual energy, there are also quite a few restrictions on my spiritual energy.”

“Furthermore, any spiritual energy that comes into contact with it will be regarded as a provocation or invasion. It will immediately counterattack. You have just tasted the bitterness of this.”

Hearing this, Lin Hong sighed and said, “Is that so? What kind of chain is it? How much of the Rock King’s spiritual energy does it contain?”

Zhang Liang smiled faintly and said, “Probably one tenth of it!”

“Hiss …!”

Hearing this, Lin Hong sucked in another breath of cold air. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, “One tenth? I never thought that the Rock King would be so strong. Is he still a human? How did he do it?”

Zhang Liang smiled arrogantly, “Talent, hard work, martial arts, bloodline, and countless ruins that you have never heard of or seen before.”

When Lin Hong heard this, he only shook his head with a bitter smile. For a moment, he was speechless. However, Lin Zhentian spoke at this moment.

“Do you know the mental energy technique you’re talking about, the Heart and Soul True Solution?”

Evidently, Lin Zhentian, who didn’t know much about spiritual energy, wasn’t very interested in what they were talking about.

As for the fact that the Rock King possessed great strength, it was incomparably clear to him, and it wasn’t the first time he knew about it.

However, this was the first time he had heard of this spiritual energy cultivation method. Furthermore, there was no need to explain the importance of this cultivation method too much.

Humans could continue to evolve. To a certain extent, they relied on cultivation techniques more than crystalline cores. Therefore, regarding the content of their conversation just now.

Lin Zhentian didn’t think much about anything else, but he paid great attention to the cultivation methods inside. He was currently squinting his eyes and fixedly looking at Zhang Liang. At the corner of his eyes, there was a trace of undetectable greed.

Of course, Zhang Liang noticed a trace of greed at the corner of Lin Zhentian’s eyes. He smiled indifferently and said, “It’s still Old General Lin who has sharp eyes. Naturally, I know this technique.”

“I just don’t know, Old General Lin, do you still feel that I haven’t gambled with Old General Lin?”

When Lin Zhentian heard this, his heart relaxed for no reason. He smiled warmly and said, “I am old. I have indeed underestimated you, and I have underestimated the Rock King.”

“You don’t need to bet anymore. The mental strength contest just now has proved that you have enough qualifications and chips.”

“Most importantly, your qualities and abilities have won my respect. Since that’s the case, I won’t follow you around.”

“I’ll give you two ways. The first way is to wholeheartedly admire my Azure Dragon City. The second way is to give your family a decent way to die out of respect.”

“Life or death, choose one from two. Come on…!”

At the end of his sentence, the killing intent in his words had already surged, and Lin Zhentian was already very clear about it.

A smart fellow like Zhang Liang who had awakened his Spirit, preached great reasoning, and other similar methods would not have any effect.

Unless he volunteered to serve Azure Dragon City, otherwise, Azure Dragon City would not receive any benefits from Zhang Liang.

In fact, this fellow would be a time bomb that could attract enemies like Skyrock City for them at any time.

Hearing this, Zhang Liang was incomparably calm. In fact, this choice was Lin Zhentian’s compromise in disguise, and it was also the limit of his concessions.

According to Zhang Liang’s guess, Lin Zhentian brought Lin Hong here personally. Originally, he wanted to directly control Zhang Liang.

It was just that they underestimated Zhang Liang too much and underestimated how strict Heavenly Rock City was regarding secrets.

As for this choice, do you still need to choose?

Zhang Liang said solemnly, “Old General Lin knows that if I’m afraid of death, I won’t come here. However, since I’m here, I naturally won’t be courting death easily.”

“Of the two paths you’ve given me, I will definitely choose the first. However, I also have a small condition.”

“Azure Dragon City, where do you want me to go, what kind of work do you want me to do? I can even obey all the secrets I know about Heavenly Rock City.”

“Even if you are worried about controlling my life and death, I can accept it. I only have one small condition.”

Lin Zhentian carefully pondered Zhang Liang’s words and felt the determination in his words. His eyes twinkled as he said, “Good, happy …! Tell me about your little condition!”

Hearing this, Zhang Liang smiled indifferently and said, “It’s very simple. Wherever I am, my parents are. You are not allowed to use any methods against them.”

“As a son of man, these stormy disputes were originally caused by me and have nothing to do with them.”

“I, Zhang Liang, will be responsible for everything!!”

Zhang Liang’s forceful words caused everyone in the room, including Lin Zhentian, to be stunned and be suppressed again.

However, what shocked them this time was Zhang Liang’s love for his parents.

One had to know that in this apocalyptic world, how many people could reach such a status as Zhang Liang, and how many of them could do this for their parents?

Everyone present was deeply impressed by his filial piety. Of course, Lin Zhentian wasn’t one of them.

Of course, he was naturally extremely touched, but he was only touched for a moment. For a hero, controlling his emotions, as well as most of the unnecessary emotions, was only a basic skill.

At this moment, his eyes flickered, and he said with incomparable seriousness, “What if I say that I can’t agree to this small condition of yours?”

Zhang Liang smiled and said, “If you don’t agree, it will only be a scene of a fish dying in a net.”

“Of course I will die, but I’m afraid you won’t be able to obtain any benefits. Heavenly Rock City’s actions will definitely be in vain.”

“To waste so much strength, to use so many chess pieces, to unite the forces of several parties, yet not to reap any benefits, is merely to lose both sides.”

Since Clan Master Lin’s Azure Dragon City can afford to lose, there’s nothing I, Zhang Liang, cannot afford to lose …!

Lin Zhentian stared fixedly at Zhang Liang. However, he was very disappointed. He could not see anything unusual from Zhang Liang’s face. However, from his words, it was clear that he still had hidden moves that were detrimental to Azure Dragon City in Heavenly Rock City.

However, Lin Zhentian was only testing. After all, as Zhang Liang had said, Azure Dragon City could not afford to lose.

There was no comparison between the life and death of Zhang Liang’s family and the prosperity of Azure Dragon City.

Lin Zhentian did not pretend and smiled coldly, “Haha …! What a failure. I will accept your small condition.”

“I hope you won’t disappoint me. Otherwise, you should know…”

Zhang Liang chuckled, “Don’t worry, Old General Lin. Since I, Zhang Liang, have come here, I have naturally prepared myself mentally. I will definitely not disappoint you.”

When Lin Zhentian heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. He immediately raised his wine glass and said happily, “Alright, come, drink this cup and you’ll be considered a member of our Azure Dragon City.”

At this time, Zhang Liang naturally cooperated incomparably. He picked up the wine glass in front of the table and bowed respectfully. Then, the two of them touched their wine glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

When the two of them clashed their glasses, everyone in the hall immediately responded. Golden armor, jade, and Lin Hong all raised their glasses.

As the representative of Qilin City, Nongyu quickly raised his wine cup and congratulated him, “Congratulations, Old City Lord Lin, for having such a talented person to help you.”

“Congratulations, Patriarch!” Just as Nong Yu finished speaking, the golden armor held a cup and stroked it, congratulating him.

“Haha … Ha, good! Congratulations to the Patriarch, I’m very happy to have such a talented person.” Lin Hong also raised his glass and stroked it, speaking quite straightforwardly.

At this moment, he had already wiped the blood off his face. Then, he said excitedly, “Brother Zhang Liang, from now on, he will be his own family.”

“I hope Brother Zhang Liang can give me more pointers on this aspect of spiritual energy in the future.”

He wasn’t stupid either. He had witnessed Zhang Liang’s joining the entire time. He knew exactly what kind of ability this Zhang Liang possessed, as well as what kind of outstanding quality he possessed.

He dared to say that as long as this fellow managed to survive this node of Heavenly Rock City, his status in the Azure Dragon City rankings would definitely not be too low in the future.

Moreover, he was indeed much weaker than this person in terms of spiritual energy. There was even that mysterious spiritual energy cultivation technique, so he naturally had a clear mind.

“Brother Lin is joking. It should be Brother Lin taking care of him more,” Zhang Liang said with a smile.

Lin Zhentian was quite happy to see that the two of them had the momentum of not knowing each other.

However, right now, he was hoping to leave an impression of a wise master in front of Zhang Liang.

Without any ink, he immediately ordered, “Lin Hong, go out and inform Number 10 to bring Zhang Liang’s parents here respectfully!”

Hearing this, Lin Hong immediately withdrew his smile and said solemnly, “Yes …”

After saying that, he walked out of the banquet hall. However, Lin Zhentian called out to Zhang Liang again, “Since you think you’re from Azure Dragon City, then you’ll be one in the future.”

“I know you. I’m worried about your parents. It’s hard to feel at ease if they don’t see each other. I’ll bring it here for you now. You can rest assured!”

Hearing this, Zhang Liang smiled happily and said excitedly, “Thank you for the City Lord’s T-shirt. Zhang Liang is very grateful. From today onwards, Zhang Liang is willing to serve the City Lord with all his heart.”

Hearing this, Lin Zhentian’s eyes flashed with joy. He asked casually, “When you came here, you revealed that the Rock King was seriously injured in a fight with the Dark Tribe. Is that the truth?”

Hearing this, Zhang Liang’s eyes couldn’t help but flash with a strange light. He said solemnly, “Lord City Lord, based on my judgement, this matter should be exactly the same.”

“As for this conclusion, I don’t dare to speak rashly.”

Hearing this, Lin Zhentian smiled in his heart. Before he could hear his judgement, he believed 70-80% of it. However, his face remained calm as he said, “Well, then tell me about your judgement…”
