Chapter 110: The Dijiang

No one had liked the news. And no one, including Marek, wanted to believe that a phoenix could become a corrupted necromancer.

As the search that commenced was fruitless, the party couldn't explain to the emperor why they wanted to stay in Danyang. And so, they continued onward towards Chu.

There was a major cultivation sect there and Wei Longwei demanded of his parents to be left there. No one wanted to let him go, least of all alone, so it was decided that if he won a game of Xiangqi against general Lao, then he would be allowed to go with Nathaniel, who also wanted to be taught how to fight like the locals.

The game lasted a whole day, but Wei Longwei won. Both boys happily prepared to be left in the cultivation sect. They spoke excitedly about what they were going to cultivate in. Wei Longwei wanted to cultivate his swordsmanship, and Nathaniel wanted to cultivate better health.
