Xie Zhou looked worried and hurriedly went to help Song Wu up, saying, "Senior Brother Song, are you badly injured? Let me help you. Distribute all these medicines. How did you get into a conflict with the people from the Hall of the Dead?"
"Thank you, Senior Sister Xie..."
The disciple who received the medicine thanked him and then went to distribute the medicine to the wounded.
Before Xie Zhou could speak...
"You don't need to..." thank me.
Seeing his hurried manner, she smiled.
Song Wu tried to speak, but Xie Zhou stopped him, saying, "Shh... Senior Brother Song, your priority right now is healing. Don't speak. I'll apply the medicine... If it hurts, just scream..."
Song Wu didn't speak; he simply lay on a makeshift bed made of the disciples' clothes.
Xie Zhou took out the spiritual herbs and healing elixirs she had obtained earlier to treat Song Wu's injuries. The other disciples also received medicine, but not Xie Zhou.
Only Senior Brother Song has this honor.
"Ouch...it hurts..."
Xie Zhou took out some ointment to apply to his wound, but as soon as it touched the wound, he cried out in pain.
Xie Zhou teased, "Weren't you so smug just now? Why are you yelling in pain? It barely used any..."
Song Wu just grinned and didn't say anything.
Later, the medicine was applied and the wound was simply bandaged with gauze.
"Alright, Senior Brother Song, get up."
After getting dressed, Senior Brother Song said earnestly, "The reason we fought against those people was because we discovered the legacy of a senior. Then the men in black suddenly appeared and ambushed us. As the senior brother, I actually dragged everyone down. Just as Junior Sister saw, I was overwhelmed and beaten by those men in black, and I ended up in this miserable state."
Then Song Wu chuckled self-deprecatingly.
Xie Zhou then said, "Those men in black are members of a mysterious organization called the Temple of the Dead!"
Song Wu frowned slightly, nodded as if he understood, and finally asked Xie Zhou what exactly the Hall of the Dead was.
Since Xie Zhou didn't know the specifics, she told him everything she knew.
"I don't know the specifics from Senior Brother Song, but I occasionally received a token from the leader of the men in black. It says 'Hall of the Dead' on it, so these men in black are from the Hall of the Dead, and their goal is to find the ability to release the ancient monsters..."
That's all I know.
But speaking of strange creatures from the ancient world, where did Little Black go?
It turned out that while Xie Zhou was looking for Senior Brother Song and the others, Xiao Hei had already wisely gone into the storage space to get along well with Chaos and the others and cultivate their relationship.
Then, returning to this side, Song Wu nodded.
He said, "So that's how it is..."
However, Xie Zhou was more interested in what kind of powerful being Song Shixiong had discovered.
Xie Zhou then cautiously asked, "Senior Brother Song, may I ask you something? Where is the powerful being you discovered? Have you found the powerful being's inheritance?"
After saying that, Xie Zhou looked at Song Wu expectantly, hoping he could give her an answer, but Song Wu, seeing her expectant look, did not give a direct answer.
He then said with a smile, "Junior sister, this is more than just one thing, isn't it?"
In order not to lose face, Senior Brother Song decided to try his luck at the inheritance of the seniors there.
Xie Zhou, who did not receive a satisfactory answer, looked at the deflated ball with a sullen face, but did not pay much attention to it afterward.
The system provided the answer just as she was fretting: "Senior Brother Song hasn't found the power of inheritance, but it's probably just a matter of time. He'll definitely find it when the time comes."
Afterwards, Senior Brother Song checked on the injuries of his disciples and said, "Those people are gone, and we were also severely injured. However, we must thank Xie Zhou of the Sword Sect for his help. Let's continue our search for that place!"
After thanking Xie Zhou, the disciples replied, "Yes..."
So Senior Brother Song and the others returned along the route they had found earlier, having been driven back by the people of the Hall of the Dead.
Before long, they arrived at the legacy of that predecessor.
The familiar formula, one after another, the gates of light flashed, and only one person could receive the inheritance of a powerful being. The result came out quickly. Song Wu was very nervous, and cold sweat was dripping down his back. Seeing the gates of light close tightly and the disciples leave the formation in disappointment, Song Wu was particularly anxious and kept silently praying in his heart.
"Pick me...pick me..."
Sweat dripped onto the wound, causing a stinging, burning sensation, but faced with this opportunity, Song Wu felt that none of that mattered.
As expected, the senior chose Senior Brother Song.
Xie Zhou knew that she already possessed inherited power, and she dared not use the rest, nor would it be hers.
When Song Wu opened his eyes again, he found himself in a different space.
Surrounded by a vast expanse of white, Song Wu finally realized that he had indeed been chosen, and his fists clenched slightly.
Meanwhile, Xie Zhou and the others outside were protecting Senior Brother Song.
The disciples of Wuyou Pavilion were overjoyed, each one more excited than the last, hoping that Senior Brother Song would return after completing his studies so they could have a good look at him.
Song Wu, who entered the trial ground, also frowned slightly.
In the blink of an eye, he followed the instructions of that powerful being and easily passed the first test. However, he encountered some difficulties with the second test.
He looked at the giant lizard monster in front of him, which was far stronger than him, and felt a chill in his heart. However, he gripped his sword tightly and stared at the monster with a determined look.
...
"Yaha!..."
With his sword raised high, Song Wu took the lead in attacking. He leaped up and, using his lightness skill, jumped onto the back of the giant lizard, which was its blind spot. Its tail couldn't reach this area, but he had to be careful of the lizard's long tongue with venomous barbs.
After several rounds, Song Wu discovered many of its weaknesses, but he was still a ways off from defeating it in one fell swoop.
He activated the formation of the Worry-Free Pavilion, commanding his swords to split into dozens, all aimed at the lizard's eyes.
The lizard was set on fire, and it kept swinging its tail while roaring.
"roar!……"
Finally, Song Wu grabbed the lizard's tail and flew onto its head. He then used his magic to kill it.
...
He successfully passed the trial and received the inheritance from that predecessor.
"You're a promising student, you've made it! Go on..."
After saying these words, the old man vanished into thin air.
Meanwhile, the people outside who were tending to the hair were all talking about it, some of them worried about whether Song Wu would be able to successfully obtain the inheritance.
However, Song Wu, who successfully woke up, did not disappoint them. A bright light flashed, and Song Wu appeared safely in front of Xie Zhou and the others, who were all extremely excited.
Everyone applauded and offered their congratulations.
"Yay! Senior Brother Song got it!"
"Very good!…"
