Summit of the Old Gods

"Alliance Leader Yun, what is this?" He Qifeng examined the exquisite Tiger Talisman.

Yun Qianzhou slowly said, "This is a Second-rank Magical Artifact, the Black Jade Tiger Talisman, which can enhance the wearer's prestige."

A Second-rank Magical Artifact?

Lu Ran felt the imposing aura emanating from the Black Jade Tiger Talisman and couldn't help but be secretly alarmed.

The imposing might is already so great without being on a Human Clan member.

If this were combined with the Human Clan, and the right support was found, what then?

Yun Qianzhou looked at the magical artifact that had been with him for many years: "It's often said that kindness doesn't command soldiers, yet I, being a disciple of the Sky Phoenix, am inherently not hard-natured.

Back in the day, it was thanks to this Tiger Talisman that I was able to command the heroes and form the Thousand Boat Alliance."

He Qifeng was a bit surprised, "This magical artifact can change the wearer's character?"

Yun Qianzhou gently shook his head, "No, if Hall Master He wore it, it would instill genuine awe in others.

Even on the battlefield, if you issue orders to the enemy, if their will is weak or their disposition is soft, they might be overwhelmed and compelled to obey your command."

He Qifeng's face showed a moment of shock!

So powerful?

Yun Qianzhou, with a hint of reminiscence in his eyes, continued the previous topic, "Later, as the Thousand Boat Alliance got on track, my strength and realm increased, and I gained the support of the alliance members.

This Tiger Talisman no longer had a place to showcase its powers.

My governing philosophies and my own personality caused this Tiger Talisman to gather dust for a long time.'

"Buzz!"

The Black Jade Tiger Talisman hummed and vibrated.

Yun Qianzhou looked at the restless magical treasure and said, "Both of you young friends are leaders, filled with ambition and forward-thinking.

I, Yun, am content with a corner of the land, so it might be better to gift this magical treasure to you two, to aid you in accomplishing great feats.

Internally, consolidate your ruling position; externally, conquer powerful enemies from all quarters."

Lu Ran and He Qifeng couldn't help but exchange a glance.

Yun Qianzhou's demeanor was gentle, "Do not refuse, I am giving this magical treasure to you as gratitude for helping the Thousand Boat Alliance through this crisis and also to find a suitable bearer for the Black Jade Tiger Talisman.

Rest assured, the Black Jade Tiger Talisman has already been severed from me and is now without an owner.

As long as the Black Jade Tiger Talisman recognizes you both, it will wholeheartedly follow you."

Alliance Leader Yun was undoubtedly sincere in his thanks, carefully considering everything to dispel any concerns Lu and He might have about being suspected of monitoring the Forbidden City or the Ran Sect.

"Crack~"

The Black Jade Tiger Talisman suddenly cracked from the middle into two parts.

Just like ancient military tokens.

"Alliance Leader Yun, then I won't be courteous!" He Qifeng, always decisive, stood up, cupped his hands towards Yun Qianzhou, and then reached out towards the wooden tray.

Both halves of the Tiger Talisman moved slightly towards He Qifeng's fingertips.

Between Lu Ran and He Qifeng, they both chose He Qifeng, who had a more kingly aura.

Poor someone,

just got snubbed like that~

Lu Ran smirked, thinking this one is even blinder than the last!

However, he quickly adjusted his mindset.

Thinking from another perspective, if Lu Ran had to choose for himself...

He would also choose He Qifeng!

Choose someone else?

Just a small River Realm cultivator, sitting there all pompous, what is that worth~

"Come with me!" He Qifeng said quite straightforwardly, directly choosing the left half of the token.

Such a scene was taken in by all the people in the hall, and their thoughts began to swirl.

Generally speaking, the right half of the token would stay with the king, while the left half would be given to the commanding general.

When the two halves come together as one, then one can mobilize troops.

As a magical artifact, the Black Jade Tiger Talisman doesn't have the ability to command troops, but it is, after all, in the shape of a Tiger Talisman.

Therefore, who takes the left half and who takes the right half is quite significant for those who care.

At the very least, it's a symbol of one's status and position!

No one expected He Qifeng to be so straightforward, directly taking the left half that represents the general.

The remaining right half was naturally left for the king.

He Qifeng was so decisive that everyone in the hall couldn't figure out whether she understood the respective meanings of the two halves of the Tiger Talisman...

Lu Ran, in any case, didn't know.

He Qifeng took one half, so he took the other half.

"Buzz~"

The texture of the Black Jade Tiger Talisman was smooth and warm, and the golden inscriptions glowed faintly.

Lu Ran had already calmed his mindset, entirely indifferent.

Whether the right half of the Tiger Talisman was unsatisfied or held doubts, as time passed, all of it would vanish into nothing.

After all, it sought a strong-willed owner!

An owner who would unite heroes and conquer enemies!

There was no one more suitable than Lu Ran in this world.

He Qifeng inquired, "Alliance Leader Yun, is the Black Jade Tiger Talisman one magical artifact or two?"

Yun Qianzhou: "When the two halves of the Tiger Talisman are separate, they follow their respective masters and form their own factions. When united, they can exhibit greater effects."

He Qifeng felt a stir in her heart and asked, "If Master Lu and I are separated by a thousand miles, can the two halves of the Tiger Talisman communicate with each other?"

Yun Qianzhou smiled and nodded, "Yes, they are relatively independent yet intact as a whole."

Oh?

It also has the function of a communicator?

Lu Ran looked at He Qifeng and joked, "Now, there's no need to leave the Silent Night Blade with you."

He Qifeng also laughed and sat back beside Lu Ran, "No, I like your blade."

Lu Ran: ???

What do you mean?

Are you being forceful?

Seeing Lu Ran's expression, He Qifeng became even happier, "I have three bodily facets! Recently, you just gave me a Divine Weapon, the Heavenly Sword.

Along with your Silent Night Blade, one facet of mine can wield both sword and blade."

More question marks floated above Lu Ran's head.

No way!

You do realize I just gave you a Divine Sword, right?

Would the dignified Wind Emperor really disregard decorum?

How could you just take whatever is offered?

"Hahaha!" He Qifeng burst into hearty laughter, patting Lu Ran on the shoulder.
