Chapter 518: Chapter 518 Tang Sword!

Dragon Jade accompanied his birth?

Tang Zhong couldn’t believe it was true, which meant that when his mother was pregnant for ten months, she didn’t just give birth to him, but also left behind this piece of Dragon Jade!

It was too incredible to believe!

"Grandpa Zhang, you must be joking!" Tang Zhong couldn’t believe it.

"I am not joking. Do you think this statement is too mystical? But such things have truly existed. During the time of Western Zhou, Li Jing from Chentang Pass of the Shang Dynasty had a third son, Nezha. Isn’t it true he was carried for three years only to be born as a flesh ball? And Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty—when his mother was pregnant with him, she dreamt of encounters with deities. On the day of delivery, thunder roared, and darkness shrouded the earth. A Jiao Dragon broke through the window from beyond the skies, coiling above the birth bed, and then Liu Bang was born. Throughout history, how many emperors and generals were born amidst extraordinary phenomena? Therefore, your birth accompanying the Dragon Jade, how is it impossible? I remember your grandfather saying that the jade was your umbilical cord. After it was cut, it fused together, turning into the half-piece of Dragon Jade you see now!" Zhang Changgong said.

Tang Zhong’s eyes widened in disbelief, what Grandpa Zhang was saying now seemed just too miraculous to him.

"Let me see your Jade!" suddenly, Zhang Changgong said.

"Yes!" Tang Zhong took out the Dragon Jade.

Now, the Dragon and Phoenix Jades had merged, half dragon and half phoenix!

Zhang Changgong glanced at it, then his pupils contracted. "It seems that you have been together with that young girl from the Jiang Family!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhong understood who he was talking about, definitely Jiang Weiwei. "Grandpa Zhang, yes!" he said.

Suddenly, Tang Zhong thought of something and said, "Grandpa Zhang, you mentioned this Dragon Jade transformed from my umbilical cord. Then this Phoenix Jade..."

"Correct, it’s the transformation of that young girl’s umbilical cord, but hers was an omen of misfortune. Phoenixes are prone to perish, which is why she’s not well-regarded by her family, along with her parents. Moreover, the higher-ups of the Jiang Family have always wanted to get rid of her. If not for the Family Head of the Jiang Family, her grandfather, she might have died a long time ago. Later, her grandfather got in touch with your grandfather to arrange a marriage alliance between the two of you, and that’s what saved the life of that Miss Jiang. But you were ruthless, actually wiping out the entire Jiang Family," Zhang Changgong said.

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhong froze, never expecting Jiang Weiwei’s background to be so tragic. No wonder the Jiang Family said Weiwei’s existence was valuable only for her marriage alliance with him. Now, even if he were to drag those so-called higher-ups of the Jiang Family from their graves and blast their corpses to dust, it would hardly quell the hate in his heart.

He vowed that in the future, he would definitely be good to Weiwei. She had suffered too much over these years.

"In any case, that’s what the prophecy says, ’Token stones vie for dominance,’ speaking of the Origin Stone..." Zhang Changgong said.

"The Origin Stone?" Tang Zhong exclaimed.

"Have you seen it?" Zhang Changgong stared at Tang Zhong.

"I have seen..."

"The stone’s power is very strong, isn’t it!" Zhang Changgong said.

"Indeed, it’s very strong..." Tang Zhong said.

"It’s these kinds of stones that various countries are eyeing. If one were to acquire such a stone, they could do great things, rivaling nuclear energy, and even more powerful. Therefore, ’Token stones vie for dominance’ has already come true; now it just remains to be seen if the ’Chosen One’ mentioned in the prophecy truly exists!" Zhang Changgong said.

"What’s the significance of this Chosen One’s existence?" Tang Zhong asked.

The prophecy merely stated that the chosen one would appear, without specifying any catastrophe.

"Nobody knows, this prophecy, people abroad, they too are aware, and they all know that now the Origin Stone has emerged, all that’s missing is the chosen one. If there truly is to be any disaster, it can only be known once the chosen one appears. Moreover, abroad, there are many prophecies, such as those of the Maya..." said Zhang Changgong.

"Am I really the chosen one?" asked Tang Zhong.

"No... not necessarily, one can only say, there is a chance!" Zhang Changgong replied, "Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. The only reason to bring this up is one, and that is to protect yourself well, you absolutely must not let anything happen!"

"I understand!" Tang Zhong nodded.

"Also, do you know how your grandfather died?" Zhang Changgong asked.

My grandfather’s death? Tang Zhong really didn’t know; he knew since he was a child that after his grandfather gave him the Jade Pendant, he disappeared. The next time he heard news of his grandfather, it was of his death.

"Do you know, Elder Zhang?" Tang Zhong inquired.

"Of course, I know... sigh!" Zhang Changgong heaved a deep sigh and then said, "You are already powerful, but it’s still not enough. Yet, you are already qualified to know this news!"

"You say, and I shall listen attentively," Tang Zhong nodded, always feeling there were many questions surrounding his grandfather’s death.

"Have you heard of the Tang Sword?" asked Zhang Changgong.

"I have!" Tang Zhong nodded.

Among the top ten famous swords, the Tang Sword ranked first, he was clear about that. But what did this have to do with his grandfather’s death?

Suddenly, as Tang Zhong muttered about the Tang Sword, it turned into ’Tang’; his surname was Tang—could it be that this Tang Sword was connected to their Tang Family?

"Your thinking is correct; it is indeed related because the Tang Sword was originally from your Tang Family!" said Zhang Changgong.

That the Tang Sword was actually from the Tang Family, Tang Zhong found it somewhat hard to believe, "Then what about grandfather’s death? Elder Zhang, please tell me quickly!"

"Your grandfather died in battle, fighting someone. Over a decade ago, he faced a life and death battle with a Martial Arts Peak from Bei Country. He was defeated afterward, and the Tang Sword he used was left behind in Bei Country," Zhang Changgong said with a sigh.

"How could my grandfather possibly lose to someone from Bei Country?" Tang Zhong said, not believing it.

"That battle, Brother Tang went alone. I wasn’t there; I was on a mission with the Dragon Group. After completing the mission, I received news of Brother Tang’s death. Later, I couldn’t find out the cause of his death, but it’s certainly not simple. If nothing unexpected, he was probably ambushed jointly by several Martial Arts Peaks of Bei Country. I wanted to avenge Brother Tang, but the battle happened within Bei Country, and proof was unattainable. I sent people to investigate in Bei Country, but there were no traces of that battle. Just like that, I’ve been investigating for over a decade without any results, but I’m sure that Brother Tang was definitely killed in an ambush; there must be a demon behind the abnormal," Zhang Changgong said.

After saying this, he looked at Tang Zhong, especially when he saw his face, he was struck with alarm.

At that moment, Tang Zhong’s entire demeanor had changed, his fists tightly clenched, his gaze fiercely red, "Elder Zhang, who in Bei Country did my grandfather fight? Tell me!"

"His name is Inoue Kazuo. As far as I know, he boasts having slain Martial Arts Peak Fang Zongyao of Xuan Country and even seized your grandfather’s Tang Sword, which is now displayed in his bedroom. And because of this deed, Inoue Kazuo’s reputation in Bei Country soared, ranking him among the top ten in strength, while the name Tang Zongyao has become a laughingstock in Bei Country’s Martial Arts World!" Zhang Changgong revealed without any concealment.

"I will surely kill him, and I won’t let anyone mock my grandfather!" Suddenly, Tang Zhong said coldly.
