C19 Shang(part Ii)

Hearing Shangguan Kang's words, Loong Xiang was shocked. He never thought that the request Shangguan Kang made before he died would be like this. It was not only Loong Xiang, even Medicinal Saint Cultivator who was standing at the side was extremely shocked. Never would they have thought that this old fellow would actually think of this move in the end. Thinking about it carefully, this old guy had such a deep plan. Loong Xiang was not destined to be Shangguan Kang's grandson, but Loong Xiang would definitely follow Shangguan Kang's last words. In other words, Loong Xiang would definitely be Shangguan Kang's grandson-in-law. If that was the case, it would be no difference even if Liu Tie didn't have the surname Shangguan. Moreover, he wouldn't need to offend some terrifying fellows.

While Loong Xiang was still in shock, a familiar pill fragrance wafted over. The pill fragrance only lasted for a moment before an extremely weak spatial fluctuation appeared. Loong Xiang, who was in a daze, did not notice this at all. However, Lil 'White, who was on the side, twitched his nose. Then, he opened his eyes wide and looked curiously at Shangguan Kang's mouth, revealing a thoughtful expression. Seeing Whitey's performance, Shangguan Kang and Medicinal Saint Cultivator looked at each other in disbelief.

At this moment, Shangguan Kang's slightly weak voice came over: "Loong Xiang, do you agree or not? I know you're talented and will definitely meet a lot of excellent girls in the future. You might not even like my little girl. It seems like, this old man is destined to leave with regrets …" After saying that, Shangguan Kang sighed.

"No, grandfather, I promise you, I promise you. In any case, I will definitely fulfill your request and fulfill your wish. " Loong Xiang hurriedly promised Shangguan Kang after hearing Shangguan Kang's words. How could he refuse Shangguan Kang's wish before he died?

"Don't worry, you promised grandpa. You have to take good care of yourself …" Before he finished speaking, Shangguan Kang's head tilted and the vitality in his body gradually disappeared. However, Shangguan Kang still had a hint of a smile on his face, whether it was because his wish had been fulfilled or because of his conspiracy …

Seeing Shangguan Kang's life ending, Loong Xiang felt that the sky was dark and his mind was blank. Loong Xiang stood up shakily but with a "hong" sound. He then fell down on the ground like a jade column that had been flipped over on a gold mountain.

After an unknown period of time, Loong Xiang slowly woke up. The moment he woke up, everything that happened before he fainted slowly appeared in his mind. Then Loong Xiang looked around at his surroundings and found that he was alone. He then ran out of the house like a madman. Loong Xiang had just run out for a short distance when he stopped in his tracks. A hundred meters away from the house where Loong Xiang and the others had previously lived, a new grave stood there quietly, glaring at them. Medicinal Saint Cultivator was about to carve something on the tombstone above the new grave. Sensing Loong Xiang's arrival, Medicinal Saint Cultivator turned around and looked at him. He said, "My condolences. I have already buried your grandfather's body. You can carve the words on this tombstone."

"No, that won't happen. Grandpa won't die, you lied to me!" Loong Xiang pounced on the grave like a madman and used his hands to dig at the dirt on the ground.

"Foolish child, this will only make your grandfather feel uneasy. "This is your grandfather's beard. When your grandfather was alive, he looked at his beard as if it was more important than his life. Now that he's gone, you should leave this beard behind. When you miss your grandfather, you can look at it." Medicinal Saint Cultivator advised on the side. As he spoke, he handed a bunch of fiery-red beard to Loong Xiang.

Hearing this, Loong Xiang stopped what he was doing and turned his head with great difficulty towards Medicinal Saint Cultivator. Looking at the familiar fiery red beard, Loong Xiang was completely dumbfounded, his eyes filled with despair. When Shangguan Kang was still alive, he cared more about his beard than his life. Even Loong Xiang, who he doted on, did not dare to hurt a single one of Shangguan Kang's beard. Other kids would often threaten their grandpa with their request by pulling off his beard, but Loong Xiang never dared to do so. Right now, his grandfather's beard, which was more important than his life, was quietly lying on his palm!

If Grandpa was still around, he definitely wouldn't allow anyone to cut off his beard. It seemed that his grandpa was really gone. Loong Xiang's last sliver of hope was completely shattered.

Like this, Loong Xiang held Shangguan Kang's beard and quietly stood in front of Shangguan Kang's grave. Scenes of the past flashed before Loong Xiang's eyes. When he was still an infant, Shangguan Kang was both a father and mother to take care of him. A man, and an older man to wash diapers, wash milk, and bathe infants.

Growing up a little bit, Shangguan Kang had to concoct different medicament for Loong Xiang every day so that Loong Xiang could build a solid physical foundation from a young age. There were hundreds of thousands of different drugs, and each time, the concocting method and ingredients were all different. Furthermore, Shangguan Kang didn't spend any time on pharmacy before. Shangguan Kang didn't dare to be careless or make any mistakes. Every day for 12 years, he had to carefully spend 3 to 4 hours to mix medicine and to learn medicine.

Later on, because Loong Xiang couldn't smoothly break through to the Martial Master Stage, Shangguan Kang went through all sorts of books on pharmacy, history, and medicine in hopes of finding a solution. At the same time, he also wanted to comfort the discouraged Loong Xiang. In addition, in order to prevent Loong Xiang from understanding the mainland's knowledge from becoming too boring, Shangguan Kang would think of ways to make a lively story about that boring knowledge for Loong Xiang to hear every day.

Of course, Loong Xiang knew Shangguan Kang's kindness and care for him after spending the 12 Spring and Autumn with Shangguan Kang. However, Loong Xiang always felt that he was still young and that when he grew up in the future, he would have plenty of opportunities to repay his grandfather. Thus, he didn't express his gratitude and respect towards his grandfather. But now …

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, the child wants to be raised but the parent does not exist.

Loong Xiang's heart was filled with a deep sense of remorse. Shangguan Kang was worried a lot about his past naughtiness and insensible behavior. Previously, he respected and doted on his grandpa, but he didn't tell his grandpa about this. Now, it was all too late. Grandfather would never come back. If he missed this opportunity, he would never have another chance and would never be able to change anything …

Just as Loong Xiang recalled all of this and blamed himself, time slowly passed. From Little White and Medicinal Saint Cultivator's point of view, Loong Xiang just stood there motionlessly like a statue in front of Shangguan Kang's grave.

Three days passed by in a flash. During these three days, Loong Xiang's body did not make any minute movements. Even his expression remained the same as it was filled with grief. On the evening of the third day, the weather suddenly darkened. It was as if thick clouds were trying to destroy everything in the world. Then a cold wind blew, and suddenly the sky began to fill with snowflakes the size of goose feathers.

The moment the first snowflake fell onto the ground, a trace of gray appeared on Loong Xiang's face. Endless remorse and remorse appeared on his face. Tears dripped from his eyes one after another. The tears were blood-red, like blood. The dazzling red light made Medicinal Saint Cultivator's heart hurt and he couldn't bear it anymore. He wanted to say something, but he resisted the urge. Meanwhile, Xiao Bai glared at Medicinal Saint Cultivator fiercely, as if it knew something.

Without waiting for Medicinal Saint Cultivator to react, Xiao Bai ran to Loong Xiang and started gesticulating with its claws. Seeing that Loong Xiang did not have any reaction, Xiao Bai pulled on Loong Xiang's pants anxiously. But Loong Xiang still had no reaction.

At this moment, Medicinal Saint Cultivator also saw that something was wrong. He sighed and said, "Xiao Bai, it's useless. He has sealed off his heart and senses. Nothing in the outside world could affect him. Whether or not he could regain his composure was up to him. No one else could help him. That old fellow has gone too far this time. "

At this time, Loong Xiang's self-blame and remorse and guilt had reached their peak, which led to the idea of seeking death to arise in Loong Xiang's heart. And once this idea was born, Loong Xiang could no longer suppress it and the idea of seeking death continued to spread like wildfire.

When the thought of begging for death appeared, Loong Xiang's life force started to dissipate, and his face turned deathly grey. Gradually, Loong Xiang's life force became weaker and weaker, and the loss of life force even made Loong Xiang's brain hallucinate. Seeing that he agreed to his grandpa's temporary request, Loong Xiang had a sliver of will to live. However, Loong Xiang had lost too much of his life force, so this tiny will was unable to pull him back from the brink of death.

I'm sorry grandpa, I can't do what Loong Xiang promised you, Loong Xiang is going to find you now. Loong Xiang was unfilial, but the current Loong Xiang had no way to turn the situation around.

The camera gradually turned back to the scene where Shangguan Kang and Medicinal Saint Cultivator were enjoying themselves as they talked about the ancient times and the modern times after they had just refined the Turtle Aura Pellet. It was also at that time that Loong Xiang gained a general understanding of some of the famous figures in the history of the continent. And it was also at that time that Loong Xiang had the person he worshipped the most, Human King Yanhua Xuanyuan, for the first time. At that time, Loong Xiang had an intense desire to become a powerful expert. However, all of this was just about to become a passing cloud of smoke. If he was going to die, would the dreams of the strong still have any meaning?

At this time, Human King Yanhua Xuanyuan's life experience also appeared in front of Loong Xiang. Even if his life force was about to completely disappear, when he thought about Human King Yanhua Xuanyuan bringing along his Yinhua Nine Butchers and using his own strength to establish his position as one of the three great empires of Yanhua Empire, Loong Xiang also felt his blood boil.

Suddenly, Shangguan Kang's words sounded in the bottom of Loong Xiang's heart: When Martial Cultivator breaks through to the peak of the Martial Saint, the power he wields is unimaginable. Some of the most powerful ones could defy Yin and Yang, change life and death, and go through the cycle of reincarnation. As long as they weren't scared out of their wits, they could reverse space and time and revive the dead!
