Chapter 224: Bestowing A Cultivation Legacy

Of course, he had noticed it a long time ago. In fact, he felt that the dragon-breath rain wasn\'t actually focused on Silver Sword Peak... Rather, it was targeting him. The golden rain had fallen on him even when he was away from the peak, and it had happened more than once.

However, Chu Liang didn\'t dare to make that fact known. After all, he wasn\'t sure if it was a sign of good fortune or misfortune.

Normally, when someone was being favored by a True Dragon, it could mean that they were the bearer of Mount Shu\'s great destiny[1], which should be a good thing. But Chu Liang was hiding a secret—the White Pagoda. He was afraid that if it became known that the True Dragon favored him, his secret would be uncovered.

The True Dragon had a very unusual spiritual nature. Who knew if it had sensed something?

Moreover, although the Mount Shu Sect revered the True Dragon, they didn\'t completely trust it. So, they might not necessarily see it as a good thing that the White Dragon was targeting Chu Liang.

"After I noticed that, I asked the True Dragon about it once," Old Man Sikong continued. "Its answer was basically that it had sensed that there was a bearer of great destiny on Silver Sword Peak."

Chu Liang muttered, "Is that so..."

Old Man Sikong then pointed at Liu Xiaoyu\'er. "I remembered this little girl whom I once did a divinity reading for. Her innate constitution is that of a koi fish; she is indeed a bearer of a great destiny[2]. Moreover, the True Dragon only showed a reaction after you brought her over there. Perhaps, she is the person that the True Dragon sensed."

"Eh?"

Chu Liang thought it made sense. Liu Xiaoyu\'er was a koi fish, which meant she had been born with a great destiny. This meant she was more likely to be the True Dragon\'s target than him.

"So, I plan to take her to see the True Dragon. Like the True Dragon, the young lady is also an aquatic creature. If she could receive the True Dragon\'s cultivation legacy, she may even reach the Dragon Gate[3] in the future," Old Man Sikong said.

"This is a great opportunity, but... She won\'t encounter any danger, will she?" Chu Liang asked.

"Haha, that\'s unlikely," Old Man Sikong answered with a smile. "The True Dragon helped suppress our sect\'s fate, but it hasn\'t gained our total trust yet. The elders of our sect keep a close eye on it, so it\'s impossible for it to harm anyone on the mountain."

Chu Liang nodded. "That\'s good."

As long as Liu Xiaoyu\'er\'s safety was guaranteed, it was indeed an excellent opportunity.

Chu Liang waved to Liu Xiaoyu\'er, beckoning her over. "Xiaoyu\'er, come here for a moment!"

"Huh?" Liu Xiaoyu\'er uttered.

The little girl turned her head to look behind her and found there were two people standing there. She recognized the old man as the grandpa that had done a divinity reading for her to find out about her elder sister.

Liu Xiuyu\'er then ran over with a small water watering can in hand.

She greeted Old Man Sikong politely. "Hello, Grandpa."

"Hey there." Old Man Sikong\'s smile softened, becoming much kinder. "In a moment, I\'ll take you to see a dragon. You need not be afraid."

"A dragon?" Liu Xiaoyu\'er tilted her head puzzledly. "Why do I need to see it? Does it need watering too?"

"You mustn\'t do that." Chu Liang hurriedly took the small water can from Liu Xiaoyu\'er. "The dragon is the maker of all the rain that falls on our peak. It\'s basically the grandmaster of watering. You should go learn from it."

"Wow. That\'s amazing."

Liu Xiaoyu\'er had been benefiting from the golden rain that fell on Silver Sword Peak, so it was of great significance to her.

The golden rain benefited her in two ways. The first was that the dragon\'s breath nourished her body; as an aquatic creature, it had extremely beneficial effects for her. The second was that when it rained, she didn\'t need to water the plants, so she could take a day off... She valued the second one a bit more.

So, the little girl followed Old Man Sikong and left the peak for a while to learn advanced watering techniques.

...

At the Dragon Fishing Pool on Solitude Peak...

This was the second time Liu Xiaoyu\'er had visited this place. Her first visit had merely consisted of talking to Old Man Sikong on the side of the pool. However, this time, Old Man Sikong was bringing her onto the pool itself.

The calm surface of the pool was as smooth as a mirror, without a ripple in sight. Old Man Sikong and Liu Xiaoyu\'er stepped onto the pool. It was surprisingly solid as they steadily began making their way to the center of the pool.

"Eh...?" Liu Xiaoyu\'er uttered.

As they walked, Liu Xiaoyu\'er gazed at the water beneath her feet in amazement. She knew water extremely well, but it was her first time seeing water in such a state.

Upon arriving at the center of the pool, Old Man Sikong smiled and said loudly, "Noble White Dragon, please appear before us."

"Noble" was used as a title of respect for all of Mount Shu\'s celestial beasts. For example, the celestial beast Baize, who had been protecting Mount Shu for many generations, was addressed as "Noble Baize."

Whoosh—

A blurry streak of massive gold-white scales flashed through the water, giving off a terrifyingly strong pressure.

Liu Xiaoyu\'er\'s heart skipped a beat. But when she looked down, she saw nothing.

Then there was a splashing sound. She raised her head back up and found the head of a towering gold-white dragon right before her!

Half of the enormous dragon emerged from the water. It stood tall with its head up high and looked down at Liu Xiaoyu\'er, who stood far below!

Rumble.

Liu Xiaoyu\'er hadn\'t felt scared when she first arrived at the pool. However, she was, after all, an aquatic creature. The blood vessels of Liu Xiaoyu\'er\'s innate constitution constricted with great force the moment she saw the True Dragon, and it became difficult for her to breathe.

An indescribable fear washed over her from the depths of her heart.

Old Man Sikong placed his hand on her shoulder, pressing gently. A cool breeze seemed to blow past, and Liu Xiaoyu\'er almost completely stopped trembling in fear.

"Earlier, you mentioned sensing that there\'s a bearer of a great destiny on Silver Sword Peak. I assume it is this little girl, is it not?" Old Man Sikong asked. "Now that I\'ve brought her here... If there\'s a destiny you\'d like to bestow upon her, please go ahead and do it."

The majestic White Dragon had eyes with pupils that looked like vertical slits and golden flames that burned in its irises. Despite that, it gazed down icily at the old man and little girl.

Seeing Liu Xiaoyu\'er, an expression filled with confusion and displeasure flashed across its face. Then the White Dragon suddenly paused, and his confusion and displeasure quickly disappeared.

The White Dragon glanced in the direction of Silver Sword Peak. After that, it moved its head forward, leaning closer to Liu Xiaoyu\'er.

Liu Xiaoyu\'er unconsciously took a step back.

The White Dragon suddenly let out a deep roar, "Raaaar..."

A stately voice rang out in Old Man Sikong\'s and Liu Xiaoyu\'er\'s minds.

—Today, I shall bestow my cultivation legacy unto you. You cannot cast off the inexorable catastrophe you\'re destined to face in the days to come.

Neither Old Man Sikong nor Liu Xiaoyu\'er understood the true meaning of those words. Liu Xiaoyu\'er looked rather blank as she nodded, while Old Man Sikong\'s pupils contracted, revealing a pensive expression.

Whoosh.

During this moment of silence, a beam of white light shot out from the White Dragon\'s forehead and hit the center of Liu Xiaoyu\'er\'s forehead.

The white light shone out of the girl\'s eyes.

Boom.

Countless ancient characters exploded into her mind.

...

"What\'s that voice?"

Chu Liang, who was on Silver Sword Peak, got a fright.

That very same deep, stately voice that sounded like it belonged to a deity... was ringing in Chu Liang\'s mind as well.

—Today, I shall bestow my cultivation legacy unto you. You cannot cast off the inexorable catastrophe you\'re destined to face in the days to come.

Who\'s talking to me?

Chu Liang took on a guarded posture, poised to fight. He looked around, but he couldn\'t find the person that was talking to him.

Could it be an Eminent One using the divine skill Long-Distance Voice Transmission? Perhaps the message was transmitted to the wrong person?

He shook his head. This isn\'t a phone call. It\'s not like it could be a case of dialing the wrong number.

Right when Chu Liang was feeling bewildered about the whole situation, Liu Xiaoyu\'er flew back to the peak. After landing, she seemed to be lost in thought as she walked, and her eyes were filled with confusion.

Chu Liang quickly set aside his bewilderment and went to greet her. "Xiaoyu\'er? You\'re back."

"Mm," Liu Xiaoyu\'er uttered, giving a slight nod.

"What\'s the matter?"

Liu Xiaoyu\'er looked like she was about to faint. Seeing that, Chu Liang reached out to support her.

She raised her eyes, and white light shone out from them.

Boom.

Just like what had happened to Liu Xiaoyu\'er, countless ancient characters exploded into Chu Liang\'s mind. Those characters were scattered among imposing, complicated drawings that had lengthy and curved strokes. Altogether, they looked like talismanic script, indicating the presence of Heavenly Law.

This is...

Chu Liang immediately understood why Liu Xiaoyu\'er looked so dizzy. Anyone would need quite a long while to process such a huge amount of information streaming into their mind. Moreover, the little girl wasn\'t a particularly fast thinker to begin with, so she was actually doing pretty well seeing as she hadn\'t fainted straight away.

Even Chu Liang had his divine sense darting around in his mind for quite a long while before he could finally digest the information.

Afterward, his eyes opened wide with shock.

It\'s a dragon clan\'s secret cultivation method!

He looked in the direction of Solitude Peak.

So, those words I heard in my mind earlier... The True Dragon said them for me...?

What is it afraid of?

1. Destiny is influenceable by actions; fate is concrete, set by the heavens. ☜

2. I interpret this as she has a lot of luck, so her actions will positively influence her destiny. ☜

3. It\'s a mythical gate where carp (koi fish are a common carp breed) transform into dragons. ☜
