Chapter 991: Chapter 991: Master, I Will Go Get Help

For the time being, Luo Tian didn’t want to join any families or forces.

He knew what his goal was, and that was the Misty Cloud Academy!

But the Misty Cloud Academy wasn’t something that anyone could enter. Their influence and power were considered one of the strongest in the world.

The Misty Cloud Academy was a king level force!

Those who could enter the Misty Cloud Academy were the top geniuses among geniuses. Those without special abilities or superb talent can forget about entering the academy.

Luo Tian wanted to go there.

He had two things he had to do there – stomp all over Hai Yulong and get the treasure left behind by Mount Hua’s progenitor. Then, he can leave!

But for the current Luo Tian, he can only enter by taking an exam if he wants to enter the Misty Cloud Academy.

His cultivation was too low as well, so he didn’t even have the qualification to participate in the exam.

Then again, Luo Tian didn’t even know where Misty Cloud Academy was right now, and he had no idea what the exam standards were. He didn’t have the time to think of other things and was only focused on making himself stronger.

Only now did Luo Tian think of why he was here. He looked at Bai Lingling and asked, “Oh, right! Do you two know anything about the Lunar Divine Grass?”

Bai Lingling frowned, “Lunar Divine Grass?”

“Ummm…”

“It feels like I know it… I think I’ve heard it from somewhere…” Bai Lingling silently recited the words Lunar Divine Grass. She was thinking hard about it because she wanted to help Luo Tian.

Bai Xiong was also mumbling off to the side. “The Lunar Divine Grass grows within the Lunar Crescent Valley, at the edge of the Lunar Crescent Springs…”

A flash of light appeared in Luo Tian’s eyes as he asked excitedly, “You know about the Lunar Divine Grass? Then you should know where the Lunar Crescent Valley is, right?”

Bai Xiong shook his head like a rattledrum and said, “I don’t, but the Lunar Divine Grass you are talking about only exists in legends. No one present has ever seen this kind of herb before. Legends say that this kind of spiritual herb can have the effect of bringing the dead back to life, and one can obtain the power of the Taiyin Moon1. But this is only the stuff of legends because no one has ever found the Lunar Divine Grass, let alone the Lunar Crescent Valley. Master, why are you looking for the Lunar Divine Grass?”

“Damn it!” Luo Tian exclaimed while slapping his thigh.

He seemed to have realized something after hearing Bai Xiong talk. In order to make sure, he then asked, “Can it heal a kneecap when the bones have been shattered into powder? And can someone do it in a small place like Martial Mountain City?”

“Of course!” Bai Xiong answered without thinking.

“‘This kind of injury only belongs to the low grade disability type. One only needs to spend a few dozen xuan coins to heal it, and it won’t leave any aftereffects. Any medical clinic or any low grade elixir will be able to cure it. Master, why are you asking about this?”

“I understand now! I’ve been tricked!”

“I… sigh~… How come I never thought about this?”

“I am too naive.”

“It looks like Big Brother Dongfang and Uncle Yao Hai might be in danger.” Luo Tian’s expression instantly changed. After recalling the situation at the Gambling Pavilion, he had a sense that Dongfang Shuo had put on an act in front of him. Because he was too eager to save Yao Hai, he pushed those suspicious thoughts aside.

But Luo Tian understood that he had violated the Bai family’s taboo when he destroyed the Heavenly Plume Sect and killed Wei Kunlun. There’s no way the Bai family will let him off after he did something like that. He was naturally not afraid of them, but he understood Dongfang Shuo was worried about him, and that’s why he sent him out with an elaborate act.

Making up a story about a spiritual herb that only exists in legends for him to find for the rest of his life. He would not go back unless he found it, so he would naturally not be in danger since he would probably never find it.

“Head back!”

“I need to head back right away!”

Luo Tian’s expression turned anxious as he felt an unnerving premonition. The Gambling Pavilion, Dongfang Shuo, and Uncle Yao Hai might all be in danger.

These were the two most important friends he had made in the Ancient World.

He cannot allow anything bad to happen to them.

Upon seeing Luo Tian’s anxious expression, Bai Lingling asked, “Is there something wrong? The Bai family has a certain amount of control in Martial Mountain City. So if it’s something in Martial Mountain City, I should be able to help you out.”

Bai Xiong followed by asking, “Martial Mountain City? If any of the thirteen forces dare to touch you, I’ll immediately exterminate their entire family!”

Luo Tian smiled faintly and said, “Thank you, but I want to solve this matter myself. Don’t you guys have to go back and save your father? Let’s leave here immediately so you two can hurry home.”

Bai Lingling wanted to ask further questions, but seeing that Luo Tian didn’t want to say anything, she held back from asking.

Moreover, her father was still severely poisoned. The sooner she brings back the Dark Yin Crystal, the sooner she can cure him.

Bai Lingling then said, “En~, we will head back first. Since we have to pass by Martial Mountain City on our way back to Towering Cloud City, you can tell us your matter if you want to by then.”

Bai Xiong added, “I want to see which wretched bastard dares to mess with my master! Humph~!”

After saying that, those two were the first ones to crawl up from the Zombie Hall.

When it was Luo Tian’s turn, the Zombie Hall entrance suddenly closed!

Luo Tian’s eyes turned heavy, “Damn it! What the hell is happening now?!”

Outside the Zombie Hall, Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong were utterly baffled.

“Where did the entrance go?”

“Master! Master! Can you hear me?!”

“Damn it!”

“What’s going on?! How did the entrance disappear?!”

“Quickly search the area!”

The two of them almost went crazy from anxiety.

They searched left and right, but another Monk Zombie never crawled up from the ground.

Without the hole, they couldn’t go down, and Luo Tian couldn’t come out.

In other words, Luo Tian was now imprisoned there!

Bai Lingling pressed herself to the ground and started hammering it with her fists. “Barbarian! Can you hear me?! Can you hear my words?! Say something! Bang~! Bang~! Bang~! Do you hear that?! Say something!”

She was so anxious that tears came out.

Bai Xiong started clawing the ground with his hands and said, “A hole will lead us down there. As long as we dig a hole big enough, we can get through. Master, wait for me! I will definitely save you and bring you out!”

He frantically dug with both his hands. In less than a minute, his fingernail fell off, and his fingers were bleeding, but Bai Xiong still had no intention of stopping.

Half an hour later.

Bai Xiong’s hands were covered in blood, and they were shaking uncontrollably. When he looked at the small pit he dug, he observed hard stones at the bottom. Even if he dug until all his fingers were broken, there was no way he would be able to dig through that. He sat on the edge of the pit and muttered, “Little sister, what should we do now? Master is still stuck down there.”

Bai Lingling tried to maintain her calm and said, “With just the two of us, there’s no way we can dig a deep enough hole. Let’s head back to the city and call for people to help us!”

This was the only solution!

It was also the only thing she could think of!

Bai Xiong immediately stood up and shouted at the ground, “Master! Wait for us! We are leaving to get more people to help!”

Around this time, Luo Tian was standing in a corner with an inexplicably excited expression. “Zombie Kings! A bunch of Zombie Kings! Hahaha… This time, I’m going to get all the Legend of Mir skills!”
