When General Tianci saw Zhu Xingchao's pale face, he angrily pulled out his sword and pointed it at Xu Tianyu.
In response to Tianci's accusation, Xu Tianyu only smiled and spread out his hands.
There was no need for him to be angry at such loyal behavior.
"Tianci … put away your weapon … Tenyu was … saving me."
Zhu Xingchao said weakly on the bed.
It was as if it was very difficult for him to speak.
With Zhu Xingchao's words, Tianci understood and put away his weapon.
"Tenyu, I misunderstood."
"It's okay. I really envy Old Zhu for having such a loyal subordinate."
"Haha … cough, cough."
Zhu Xingchao was originally quite happy to be teased by Xu Tianyu, but his weak body made his laughter turn into coughs.
"That's enough. Don't you know your body's condition?
Zhu Yan, don't cry. Find someone to give Old Zhu the medicine. "
Xu Tianyu took out a bottle of small red pills and shook it in his hand.
"I'll go, I'll go."
When he heard that he needed water, Tianci took a big step and left. He returned in less than half a minute.
Xu Tianyu was stunned. If he didn't know that General Tianci didn't know space magic, he would have thought that General Tianci would be so arrogant.
He would have thought that Tianci was a magician who had hidden his abilities well.
Two hours later, in the courtyard of the back garden of the royal city.
Zhu Xingchao, Zhu Yan, and Xu Tianyu were eating and drinking while admiring the flowers.
General Tianci went to arrange for someone to keep the secret.
"Tianyu, I really have to thank you this time. Otherwise, this old life of mine would have gone to report."
"Yes, Brother Tenyu, thank you so much for saving my father. Come, let me toast you."
"Thank you. You've said these two words more than 800 times. Even if you're not tired of saying them, I'm tired of hearing them."
"Haha, we were too pretentious. Cheers."
Zhu Xingchao laughed and raised his cup.
"That's enough. Now that you've recovered from your illness, I won't get involved in the matters of your kingdom. However, I will go to the Vermilion Bird Mystic Realm. That's what we agreed on before."
"Yes, yes, I know. These two tokens are the keys to enter the secret realm. I'll give them to you now."
Hearing Xu Tianyu's words, Zhu Xingchao was a little disappointed.
Xu Tianyu's strength was high, and he also had medical skills. With his illness, all the imperial physicians were useless.
But when it came to Xu Tianyu, it only took him an hour to get it done.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that his cultivation had improved a lot. If he could refine the remaining bloodline power in his body, he would be able to refine it.
His cultivation might be able to keep up, and there were many chances for him to reach the Saint Realm.
If they could keep Xu Tianyu here, the Fire Country's national strength would definitely increase. At that time, whether it was the Atebo Empire or the Heavenly Dragon Empire, it would only take a few minutes to destroy them.
But Zhu Xingchao also knew that a small country like the Fire Country would not be able to contain a god like Xu Tianyu.
Xu Tianyu did not know what Zhu Xingchao was thinking. He was looking at the Vermilion Bird token.
On the blood-red token, there was a lifelike Vermilion Bird carved on it.
On the back of the token, there was a number, five.
"Old Zhu, what does this number mean?"
Zhu Yan also looked at the token. It was a number, four. He also looked at Zhu Xingchao curiously.
"Oh, you have not been to the Vermilion Bird Secret Realm, so you might not know. Let me explain it to you."
"Actually, the Vermilion Bird Secret Realm is the place of inheritance of the Vermilion Bird. Every time the secret realm opens, only those who hold the token can enter.
There are only ten tokens in total, which means that ten people can compete for the position of the Vermilion Bird's inheritance.
But so many years have passed, and many people have entered, but no one has been able to obtain the inheritance.
But other than the inheritance, it's not like there are no gains. The environment inside the secret realm is suitable for the growth of many natural treasures.
You can collect some, or you can bring back some rare ores. Other than for your own use, you can also sell them for money. "
