Chapter 370: Chapter 370: Receiving a Gift of a Sky Ship

Not long after, Gu Tong returned.

He gave those from the Eight Gods Hall a glance, revealing a look of surprise, "Eh, what are you still doing here? Do you expect me to invite you for a meal?"

Can we leave?

The people from the Eight Gods Hall felt like they had received a royal pardon and quickly turned to leave.

"Just leave the Sky Ship behind, I need it," Gu Tong added.

Hisss, just how expensive would a Sky Ship be, not to mention how many Spirit Stones were stored in its warehouse?

But they didn’t dare to let out even a fart and immediately descended the mountain, fearing that Gu Tong might change his mind.

—When one could negotiate for their life in front of such a powerful figure, what else was there that couldn’t be forsaken?

It was just a mere Sky Ship, after all.

"Big brother, why don’t you join me?" Gu Tong approached again, "You got that Secret Treasure, to be honest, even I don’t know exactly what it is, but it must be extremely valuable! With your help, my great endeavor will certainly succeed!"

"Brother Gu, you keep urging me to take part in some big endeavor, but can you tell me, what exactly is it?" Shi Hao asked.

Gu Tong fell silent, and after a moment, he said, "I can’t tell you now."

Shi Hao sighed, "Then I can’t agree to your proposal now."

He needed to know what he was getting into, didn’t he?

Gu Tong laughed heartily, clapping Shi Hao on the shoulder, "No worries, I was just asking. Now that the Secret Treasure has recognized you as its master, clearly, you are the chosen one and will inevitably work with me."

Shi Hao pulled at the corner of his mouth in a smile, naturally not believing such assertions.

"Alright, I’m leaving." Gu Tong smiled, "Oh, and that Sky Ship—I’m giving it to you."

With that, he leaped into the air and was gone in the blink of an eye.

Shi Hao felt a bit of excitement. He couldn’t fly himself, but if he could have a flying vessel, that would certainly make up for the regret.

"Shi Hao." Lin Yuyue stepped forward, "You’ve killed Luo Jian. Once Luo Hun gets the news, he will surely come after you. It’s perfect that you now have a Sky Ship—you should hurry and leave the Eastern Fire Continent."

Shi Hao smiled, "I will definitely go to other continents, but it won’t be because that stinky old Luo Hun forced me away."

Lin Yuyue was left speechless. Can’t you be less stubborn? Luo Hun is the Ninth King, just one step away from being part of the Supplementing Divine Temple. Unless Gu Tong steps in, issuing a threat, who else on the entire Eastern Fire Continent could stop him?

And the key is, with Gu Tong coming and going without a trace, he clearly wouldn’t make a special trip just for Shi Hao—With that effort, might as well just chop the person up.

Moreover, even if one were to really ask Gu Tong for help, it was doubtful he would lend a hand.

Isn’t this a good opportunity to temper Shi Hao?

Lin Yuyue and Xiao Hei returned to the Purple Star Sect, while Shi Hao took Zhang Santian aboard the Sky Ship, heading back to Jiuwu City.

Under Shi Hao’s control, the Sky Ship ascended, heading towards Jiuwu City, which greatly astonished Zhang Santian. This young man, even younger than him, was not only a martial arts prodigy but also possessed profound knowledge in Artifact Forging and Formations, which made him admire him to the point of prostration.

Several days later, they arrived back at Jiuwu City.

By then, the news of the Tianyun Temple’s fall had already spread across the whole Eastern Fire Continent, causing shockwaves that naturally reached Jiuwu City as well, where everyone was in disbelief.

The Tianyun Temple, which had once dominated the Eastern Fire Continent and been known as the strongest among the five-star forces for hundreds of years, had just collapsed?

Who could believe it?

But as more and more details came to light, and with no one from Tianyun Temple coming forward to refute the rumors, people gradually began to accept this reality.

The many five-star forces started rubbing their hands in anticipation; this was a perfect opportunity to expand their territories.

Clearly, a storm of blood and violence was about to unfold on the Eastern Fire Continent. With the fall of Tianyun Temple leaving much space for profit, a massive battle was bound to be triggered.

Shi Hao piloted the Sky Ship directly towards Jiuwu City.

He didn’t want to make such a flashy entrance, but if he left the Sky Ship parked outside, what if it got stolen? Even if it wasn’t stolen, it would be trouble if someone took away some parts.

So, he could only take the Sky Ship directly to the Han Family.

"What’s going on?"

"My God!"

"There’s actually a ship in the sky!"

"How can a ship fly in the air?"

For a moment, everyone at the Han Family was shaken, even Han Liren rushed out, standing underneath and looking up at the Sky Ship with a grave expression, as he had learned about the existence of the Sky Ship from Yuan Chengmie.

—— Not to mention the Sky Ship itself had powerful firepower, those who could possess a Sky Ship were naturally extremely powerful forces.

At that moment, the Sky Ship slowly descended.

Fortunately, the Han Family estate was large enough, Shi Hao found a square and let the Sky Ship land there.

Outside, everyone from the Han Family was on high alert.

"Whoever you are, we welcome you to the Han Family, please show yourself!" Han Liren said with a deep voice; he had recultivated his Cultivation Technique, and although he had previously experienced a fall in realm, he had now returned to the level of the Fifth King. However, this current realm of the Fifth King was not comparable to the past, being much stronger.

The improvement in his strength naturally also greatly boosted his confidence.

Shi Hao strode to the side of the ship and poked his head out.

"Eh!"

"Shi Hao!"

The crowd was shocked; they never would have guessed that Shi Hao would be the one to appear from the Sky Ship.

Han Liren let out a sigh of relief—it was Shi Hao.

Since it was the disciple of the master, what was so strange about owning a Sky Ship?

Shi Hao leapt down, and Han Liren stepped forward to greet him.

"You’re back?" Han Liren asked.

"I’m back," Shi Hao nodded.

"Good to have you back," Han Liren laughed heartily, "Come, let me dust you off."

Shi Hao nodded, and after walking side by side with Han Liren and exchanging brief pleasantries, Han Liren left to prepare for a welcoming feast for Shi Hao.

As soon as he left, Han Dong immediately came over.

"Boss, you’ve been gone for months, I missed you to death! Your entrance was so cool! What kind of ship is this, and how can it fly in the sky?" The guy made as if to hug him.

Shi Hao quickly extended his hand, keeping Han Dong at three feet’s distance.

He wasn’t used to hugging and being close to another man, especially one covered in sweat.

"Boss, I’ve now reached the Eight Steps Soul Nurturing!" Han Dong said proudly.

Huh, that was quite an improvement.

Shi Hao nodded; although this guy’s talent wasn’t top-notch, his perseverance was very strong. He trained daily according to the plan Shi Hao had set for him, and with the Han Family’s generous resources, his progress was quite noticeable.

"Good," he encouraged him with a word.

Although it was just one word, it made the fatty very happy.

"Boss, where are you headed next? I’m pretty awesome now, I can be a great help to you!" Han Dong said eagerly.

"Hmm, I do indeed have a journey coming up soon, but the place I’m going to... heh heh, do you really want to go?" Shi Hao laughed, as he was about to go in search of a special kind of flame.

This type of flame was known as Spiritual Fire, and some were what Pill Masters dearly sought after. If assimilated, it would definitely make the pill refining process much more efficient and successful.
