Chapter 90: Elder Sheng
Hearing this, Tu Yao narrowed his eyes slightly but didn't respond. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Elder Sheng, our Floating Boat City obtained the Qilin Blood through an extremely fortuitous opportunity, but we're not clear about the origin of the Qilin Blood."
"You just said that Qilin Blood appears in the world almost every sixty years. So where does this thing actually come from? Does the divine beast Fire Qilin truly exist in the world?"
The gray-robed old man Sheng Shi'an shook his head, "Does the divine beast Fire Qilin truly exist? No one in the martial world has seen it with their own eyes, but most people speculate that it should exist. Otherwise, how could Qilin Blood have continuously appeared in the world all these years?"
Tu Yao showed a contemplative expression, "Then has no one tried to find the Fire Qilin?"
"Naturally, people have searched for it in the past, but over hundreds and thousands of years, no one has found it. Gradually, people stopped searching for that ethereal divine beast."
Sheng Shi'an said with lowered eyes, then his tone shifted, "However, every time Qilin Blood appears in the world, it triggers a wave of searching for the divine beast Fire Qilin. The martial world will probably be quite lively in the coming days."
Hearing this, Tu Yao slowly nodded. After a moment of silence, he didn't continue asking about this matter.
His gaze once again looked toward the wooden boat below where Li Musheng was, "The martial Dao expert who just seized over a hundred jade tokens from afar, what does Elder Sheng think of their strength? If they make a move, can Elder Sheng stop them?"
The gray-robed old man Sheng Shi'an was silent for several breaths. His aged face showed a thoughtful expression, "That person's method of seizing jade tokens earlier was somewhat similar to the sword-controlling technique in the martial world's sword Dao. However, perhaps because it was too far away, this old man didn't detect the presence of sword qi."
