Chapter 1348
After running for quite a while, Henry and Ranjeet finally found somewhere safe.
The olddy and the girl followed behind them, not losing their way in the fog.
"Phew, this should do. It should be safe here. That old fe won''t be able to catch up with us for
now." Ranjeet let out a sigh of relief, then greeted the girl. "Amitabha, I can see that your blood is
rushing vigorously, you''ve possibly suffered some internal injuries. Please sit cross- legged and
remove your clothes. I shall heal your wounds."
"Thank you, eminent monk, but that won''t be necessary. We''re just a little tired," the olddy replied
on behalf of the girl.
Anyone could tell from the perverted look on Ranjeet''s face that he was not a decent monk.
However, seeing that he had helped them earlier, the olddy said no more.
Ranjeet ogled at the girl like the pervert he was, nearly drooling as he stared.
Henry was not interested in the cute girl before him. He asked bluntly, "Why did Joselito attack you?
Are you also an inheritor?"
The moment the olddy heard Henry mention the word "Inheritor", her gaze turned much cautious
instantly.
This time, it was the girl who took the initiative to nod and answer, "Yes."
The olddy tried to stop her, but it was toote. She moved closer to the girl, readying herself for
the unexpected.
"No wonder." Henry narrowed his eyes. "You just yelled out Joselito''s name. Have the both of you
known each other for a long time?"
The girl nodded, then quickly shook her head. "I don''t know him personally, it''s just that the name
Joselito has been widely spread among the inheritors. Every inheritor has their own uniqueness, but
among inheritors, we all still get along with each other, until Joselito appeared. He ns to devour
the inheritances of others. Within thest few months, two inheritors have already died in his hands.
He searched for information about the other inheritors and hunted them like they were his food.
Now there is no inheritor that doesn''t know who Joselito is, he has destroyed the peace among the
inheritors. There isn''t a single person who doesn''t want him dead, however his protector is too
powerful."
Henry snorted coldly. "Someday, I''ll ughter him!"
The girl tilted her head a little and looked at Henry curiously. "You want to kill Joselito? Are you also
an inheritor? I''ve never heard of you."
Henry shook his head and slowly took off his shirt.
"Hey, bro! You can''t do that! I fancied this female benefactor first. You can''t just do something like
that. You don''t even know her name yet. Put your clothes back on now!" Ranjeet rushed at Henry
aggressively, trying to make Henry put his shirt back on.
Henry''s muscr torso appeared before the girl''s eyes.
Her pretty face flushed red instantly.
Henry pointed at the wound on his abdomen and said, "You inheritors should be able to feel it. This
wound of mine has something to do with the sword that Joselito wields."
Upon hearing Henry''s words, Ranjeet breathed a sigh of relief. "Bro, you could have just told me if
you''re just trying to show the wound. I nearly thought that you were going to transform."
The olddy fixed her eyes on Henry''s abdomen and nodded. "Yes, this wound is caused by a
fierce Qi from a sword, which is simr to sword technique of the Western Xia."
Henry put on his clothes. He had no intention of proving anything, he just felt the hostility of the old
lady. That act of his was just to allow her to calm down. Regarding the matters of the inheritors,
Henry still did not know much about it. He too, had just got to know that the inheritors had formed a
community from the girl, and this group wished to get rid of Joselito as quickly as possible.
The enemy of his enemy was his friend. Henry knew very clearly how powerful Verrall was. He also
knew that with his current strength, it would be very difficult for him to kill Joselito under Verrall''s
watch. These sessors would provide good assistance someday.
Sure enough, the olddy calmed down and let her guard down after Henry''s actions.
The girl''s face returned to its normalplexion. She then told Henry her name.
The girl''s family name was Wei, and her given name was Lan. The inheritance of the Wei family
was not well known. It belonged to the branch of smaller inheritances and did not even have an
ancestral ground of their own. Every one of their inheritances were handed down from one
generation to the other. Wei Lan''s ancestor, was brave fighter, and once broke the enemy defences
of 300,000 men with just 100,000 soldiers, but it was not recorded in history, and because his
contribution was not recognised, he was not given the honour of building his own ancestral ground.
The inheritance of the Wei n that was passed down in such a manner made it impossible for the
heroic spirits within it to settle, and fell apart more and more from one generation to the other. As a
result of that, the heroic spirits of the Wei n have lost all hope of awakening.
Wei Lan told Henry that almost every inheritor, except for those of Western Xia, Lon and other
top-tier inheritances, was in that state. It had been too long, even for the top- tier inheritance like
Western Xia. Its heroic spirit had gone into a slumber too deep. Joselito could only rely on
devouring other heroic spirits to strengthen himself in order to awaken his heroic spirit one day.
This time, many inheritors have gathered at the Lon ancestral grounds not because they had any
ill intentions. They were very clear that with the inheritance energy they possessed; it was
impossible for them to devour the inheritance of the Lon ancestral grounds. Their reason for
travelling all the way there was just to seek protection. Otherwise, the smaller inheritors would end
up being devoured by Joselito sooner orter.
From Wei Lan''s story, Henry roughly understood the problems regarding the power of the inheritors,
Wei Lan also got to know Henry''s
name.
"So what''s your n?" Henry asked.
"We intended to join forces and fight under the name for Lon, but we all got separated the
moment the formation of the Ancestral Ground of Lon was activated." Wei Lan''s face was filled
with sadness. "The fog can block us out, but it won''t stop Joselito at all. We originally had five
people from the Wei family on this journey, but now, only the two of us remain, the other three have
died in the hands of Joselito. We had noticed some markings that hinted us along the way, but other
inheritors have also been attacked by Joselito. We don''t know what has happened to them, so all
we can do for now is to gather first and try to figure something out. If this goes on, we would all be
devouredpletely by Joselito before we could enter the Ancestral Grounds of Lon."
Henry was puzzled. "Where are all of you nning to meet?"
Wei Lan replied, "One of the seniors left us with markings. As long as we follow them, we will be
fine. We don''t know where the meeting point is specifically for now. Brother Zhang, if you haveContent held by N?velDrama.Org.
unfinished business with Joselito, you cane to the meeting point with us. We can all discuss
about how to deal with Joselito together."
Henry nodded and said, "Let''s go, then. I''ll go to the meeting point with you."
Seeing that Henry was willing to join them, a happy smile appeared on Wei Lan''s face instantly.
The old woman nced around, then asked, "Henry, can the hidden master swordsman from back
then join us?"
Henry had a puzzled look on his face. "What master swordsman?"
Upon seeing Henry''s confused expression, the olddy just shook her head silently.
