Chapter 80 Soul Energy Pointer
"What about now?" Yu Cang asked quickly.
"Now... I checked before I came here, this location has become the death zone of the real dragon..."
“…” Yu Cang frowned and didn’t say anything.
In just a few words, his mood went through great ups and downs.
He had to admit that he almost rode his tricycle out of the door and rushed to Zulong Snow Mountain.
But Shen Zheng's next words dampened his excitement.
"Did you see them... in Zulong Snow Mountain?" Yu Cang asked hopefully.
"...Unfortunately, no." Shen Zheng shook his head. "I did head straight for the direction the soul energy pointer pointed... but by the time I got there, it was too late. The direction the pointer pointed to instantly deviated by more than ninety degrees, just like your parents... teleported back to the place where the True Dragon died.
"Just when I was feeling frustrated... I realized that the sky of the True Dragon's Death Zone actually appeared over the Ancestral Dragon Snow Mountain!" Shen Zheng's face was still filled with shock. "At that time, a black shadow attacked me. I didn't even see what they were before I was already injured... Luckily, I have some experience in escaping. I risked my life to run to the Falling Dragon Peak, and then... I was saved by you.
"I actually didn't expect that the person who saved me would be their son... I can only say that it is fate." Shen Zheng's expression was a little subtle. "After learning that it was you, I suddenly thought of something... Your parents must have had their own reasons for joining our exploration team, and I don't know the specific circumstances.
"But I heard that after the first exploration, they seemed to have made some gains, and obtained something from the True Dragon's Death Land... This thing is not in the club. After thinking about it, I think the most likely thing is with you."
Yu Cang's heart moved.
Is it the "Death Dragon Skeleton"?
Although he thought of this soul card, Yu Cang's face remained calm. He frowned slightly, revealing a hint of just the right amount of doubt: "What is it? I don't know. They never told me about this, nor did they leave me anything."
"Really?" Shen Zheng looked at Yu Cang's expression, but found nothing. "Well... Actually, I really don't have any clues to look for. I don't dare to go to the place where the real dragon died, but I don't want to give up just like that, so I set my sights on you.
"I was planning to take it slow and see if I could get some information out of you, but I didn't know you'd be so vigilant... I really didn't mean any harm!"
"I know." Yu Cang nodded and looked at the soul pointer placed on the counter. "Sell this thing to me. Name a price."
"...No need." Shen Zheng waved his hand. "Since I placed this thing in front of you, I must have intended it for you... I have two soul energy pointers, one storing your father's and one storing your mother's soul energy. However, for the past five years, these two pointers have always pointed to the same position without any deviation. So I thought I'd give you one. Perhaps you can make a new discovery."
"…Sell me the other one, too."
"This." Shen Zheng's face froze. "Forget it. I want to investigate it myself..."
"Even if you find new clues, what can you do with your strength?" Yu Cang frowned.
At this moment, he was a little angry.
Five years!
For five whole years, if this pointer was in my hands... Although my strength is not as good as Shen Zheng's, Ren Zheng is standing behind him!
The Death Dragon Skeleton is also in the hands of Old Man Ren. If he also has this pointer, then maybe five years will be enough to determine the location of his parents!
Why do we have to wait so long to get such vague news?
Of course, no matter how angry he was, Yu Cang knew in his heart that he could not blame Shen Zheng for this matter.
After all, this soul pointer was something he invented and made himself, so it was his freedom to give it to others or not. The fact that he'd been paying attention to this matter for five years, even when the pointer was most likely malfunctioning, was already quite impressive.
If it were a normal person, he would have thrown away the pointer long ago.
Yu Cang's current anger was actually just caused by the sudden worry that he had nowhere to vent.
After all...if my parents were really alive, then why didn't they come back to look for me or Old Man Ren?
If you encounter any difficulties... Old Man Ren is already a guardian of the country and the president of the Ancient Capital University. Is there any difficulty that he cannot solve?
In addition, that day, I extracted the [Ritual] entry in the snowy mountains... I thought that this entry was obtained from the group of soul card masters who were targeting the evil dragon, but now it seems... maybe not.
For a moment, all kinds of bad speculations flashed through Yu Cang's mind, making him a little upset.
Five years... maybe it's too late, but... something has to be done.
…
Yu Cang's somewhat straightforward words choked Shen Zheng. He moved his lips as if he wanted to explain something, but in the end, he nodded dejectedly.
"Okay... you're right, I'm too weak." Shen Zheng clenched his fist, then unclenched it, saying with some self-mockery, "The water behind this matter is deeper than I imagined. This time, I only went to Zulong Snow Mountain and had a brief encounter with this matter. I didn't even meet anyone, and I almost died... Haha, maybe it's time to give up my curiosity."
After saying that, he reached into his pocket and pulled out another compass, placing it on the counter. "This is all the soul energy pointers. I hope you can gain something from it..." Shen Zheng raised his head, a little curious, "Can I ask what you plan to do with it?... After all, your current strength seems to be inferior to mine."
"I'll find someone." Yu Cang put away the two soul pointers. "There are many people who care more about this matter than you, and they are more professional than you."
"Is that so... Come to think of it, after all, people like Teacher Yu and Teacher Mu should have strong friends, right?" Shen Zheng sighed and added, "By the way... If there's any result, could you tell me?... After all, I've been concerned about this matter for five years, it's become an obsession."
Yu Cang nodded: "I will."
Hearing this, Shen Zheng nodded and quickly composed his expression.
"Well... I won't bother you for now. I'm usually next door, so just call me if you need anything. If you need any soul energy tools, you can also come to me directly. Don't look at my weak strength, I still have some skills."
"Okay... well, I wasn't very polite just now. I'm sorry."
"Oh, it's okay, it's human nature."
After saying that, Shen Zheng turned and left.
In the store, Yu Cang gently stroked the two soul energy pointers, wondering what he was thinking.
