"Pipa!"
Outside the old courtyard on the mountainside, Du Shaofu stretched his lazy waist, and his entire body's joints began to make crackling sounds.
"Phew!"
Feeling that the Profound Qi in his body was currently rather full, and that the Primordial Spirit Power in his brain's Niwan Palace was also full, Du Shaofu took a deep breath, and looked into the distance.
Suddenly, Du Shaofu's gaze moved. Not far in front of him, a hunchbacked figure was walking up with difficulty.
Du Shaofu looked over carefully. It was an old lady who was staggering as she cleaned the dead leaves on the winding stone steps that led to the mountainside.
"The battle servants of the Golden Winged Roc Clan?"
Du Shaofu's eyes revealed suspicion. Yesterday, when he entered the Golden Winged Roc Tribe, he saw that outside of the clan, there were still a lot of battle servants. There were even young and old people, and the number of them was not little. These mundane things should be done by war servants.
But when Du Shaofu secretly sized up the Qi on the old lady's body, he also found it strange.
Unexpectedly, there were no signs of aura fluctuations coming from the old lady, as if she was an ordinary person.
This was definitely the first time Du Shaofu had seen this kind of situation, unless the old lady was a peerless expert at her peak, and had already restrained her aura to the point that it seemed natural. With his own cultivation, he couldn't even see through her, otherwise, she should just be an ordinary person.
Du Shaofu was even able to detect the aura of profound beasts at the level of Martial Domain Stage. In regards to his own Primordial Spirit Power, Du Shaofu had always been somewhat confident in his heart.
Hence, at this moment, he could not detect any Qi from the old lady's body, which made Du Shaofu surprised. Perhaps, within the Golden Winged Roc s, there really were normal people.
If it really was a top-notch expert, he probably wouldn't have gone up the mountain so early in the morning to sweep the road, Du Shaofu thought.
"Chi Chi!"
Looking at the hunchbacked old lady for a while, Du Shaofu used his full strength and rushed down, with a bit of curiosity, he gently landed beside the old lady.
The old lady had a full head of hair and was dressed in light gold plain clothes. She was earnestly sweeping the withered yellow leaves on the stone steps.
As if she had felt Du Shaofu, the old lady raised her head slightly. Her aged face seemed to have gone through many years of carving, as a smile appeared on her wrinkled face, making her look very benevolent.
"Granny, let me help you sweep."
Du Shaofu smiled at the old lady and said: "You can take a rest first."
"I can't accept it. You're a guest of the clan right? I can't accept this."
The old lady waved her hand and shook her head with a smile.
"It's alright, I'm not a guest of the Golden Winged Roc Clan."
Du Shaofu laughed bitterly and did not continue speaking. He directly took the strange looking broom from the old lady's hands and, like the old lady, he swept the dead leaves on the stone steps and said: "Old granny, you should rest for a while. Right, are you a servant of the Golden Winged Roc race?"
"Servant? Yes, I have already served the Golden Winged Roc s for a long time.
The old lady was stunned. She straightened her stooped body, and a bitter smile appeared on her wrinkled face.
After a while, she asked: "You just said that you are not a guest of the Golden Winged Roc s, then, how did you manage to enter? According to what I know, normal people cannot enter the Golden Winged Roc s."
"It's a long story, it's fine if you don't want to tell me."
Du Shaofu laughed helplessly, and looked at the leaves on the stone stairs seriously.
"It's alright, it's been a long time since someone has spoken to an old woman like me. Otherwise, if you don't mind this old woman, you can talk to me." The old lady seemed to be very interested as she said to Du Shaofu.
"Alright, then I'll talk to my mother-in-law."
Du Shaofu laughed, turned around and helped the old lady up a few steps, and continued to sweep the leaves on the stone steps, and said: "I grew up with my alcoholic dad, and we separated. When I was young, I was unable to cultivate, and even though there were setbacks, my family still did not give up on me, until the day came."
While sweeping the fallen leaves, Du Shaofu talked about everything that had happened on the way here.
Originally, Du Shaofu only wanted to talk with the old lady, but in the end, as if he was still unsure if today was a blessing or a curse, he spoke further and further.
Starting from the Secret Bone s he had accidentally obtained from the Barbarian Beast Mountain Range to the time someone from the Fa family started massacring in the Stone City, trying to kill him. To explore the Dark Forest, to enter the Heaven Martial Academy and be exterminated, to enter the Ancient Sky Sect, to obtain the Golden Wings of Great Roc, to comprehend the Golden Winged Roc s of the clan, and then to be tricked into entering the Law Family, but not to see his mother and sister. They only wanted their own hearts, to dig out their own hearts and save their own sisters. When he left Law, he originally thought that he would definitely die. However, he never expected that miracles would not end. In order to become an expert, he had to temper himself in all four directions and venture into all sorts of dangerous situations.
Within the Sealed Land, he was the leader of the genius!
In terms of Heaven Barren Continent, he killed Dragon 9 and became the head of the Twelve Gods!
In this Beast Domain, he had defeated Long Ba and Dragon Seven.
The old lady stood behind Du Shaofu, quietly listening to everything that Du Shaofu had to say. When she first heard from Du Shaofu that there was an accidental fight between a golden-winged roc and a terrifying beast in the Savage Beast Mountain Range, and that she had accidentally obtained a secret bone of a golden-winged roc, her eyes shone with a golden light.
After listening to Du Shaofu's training, they separated, and when they heard that Du Shaofu had been tricked by the Law Family, rage appeared on their aged faces, and they quietly said: "The people from the Law Family are truly not things, not things!"
Hearing that Du Shaofu was willing to dig out his heart to save her, the old lady's eyes became moist, her throat choked with sobs, and she said softly: "Poor child, the heavens are blind!"
Upon hearing that Du Shaofu had obtained the Golden Wings of Great Roc, comprehended the Golden Winged Roc s, and finally obtained the recognition of the Golden Wings of Great Roc as its master, a golden light quietly surged in his eyes as he said to himself, "Heaven's will, this is all heaven's will."
When he heard that within the Sealed Ancient Land, Du Shaofu had become the head of the genius ten times in a single go, his eyes gushed with deep happiness and he was as excited as a child.
When he heard that Du Shaofu had killed Long Jiu, and defeated Dragon Seventh Long Ba, he was so excited that it was hard to conceal his emotions. He said: "Those fellows from the Dragon Clan were extremely arrogant, calling themselves the Sovereign of Beast Clan, but in reality, they aren't much.
"I want to become a strong Ranker, want to reunite my family, seek revenge for my sect's blood and enmity, and protect my family and everything around me. But today, I wonder how the Golden Winged Roc s will deal with me."
Du Shaofu sighed, and as the sound of his voice faded, he finished sweeping across the entire stone stairs, and unknowingly, he had already arrived at the peak of the mountain.
The sun had risen completely in the east, and golden light shone brightly over the ancient lands.
Du Shaofu faced the rising sun, holding onto the ground with a broom in his hands. With a slight movement of his purple robe, his black hair started to scatter, and with the addition of his tall and straight body, the morning sun shone upon his spirited face, bringing about a rather extraordinary charm.
"Don't worry, child. Everything will be fine."
The old lady raised her eyes and looked at Du Shaofu kindly.
"I hope so."
Du Shaofu turned his head and smiled, he then handed the broom to the old lady and smiled: "The old granny has finished sweeping up."
"Thank you."
The old lady laughed, her smile also carrying sadness and loneliness, she accepted the broom, looked at Du Shaofu, bent down and patted on the dust on Du Shaofu's purple robes with her dry hand, and said: "Look at you, sweeping the floor for my old lady, your body is dirty."
"Granny, I'm fine, just pat and it'll be clean."
Du Shaofu smiled innocently, looking at the benevolent expression in the old man's eyes, and felt a bit sad. It seemed that his grandparents had left very early, and hadn't even been able to remember them since they were young. If his grandparents were alive, they would look exactly the same.
"Foolish brat, look at your shoulder. There are still withered leaves. As a man, you must be clean at all times. Only like this will you look good. Do you hear me?"
The old lady straightened her body and picked up a fallen leaf from Du Shaofu's shoulder.
"Yes, I will pay attention to it in the future." Du Shaofu nodded seriously, as if he was moved by something.
The old lady looked at Du Shaofu and was very happy, then she sighed: "When my grandson was alive, he probably looked like you. He was already so old, maybe even a bit older, you look like him, but unfortunately, he also had a bad luck and a stubborn personality, and thought that his talent was not good enough. He wanted to go out and adventure, but ended up like you."
"It doesn't matter, if I don't die this time, then Granny will be my Grandmother. I will think of a way to bring Grandma out of the Golden Winged Roc Clan and let Grandma live the whole year."
Du Shaofu looked at the benevolent old lady and said seriously.
"Haha, foolish boy. Truly a foolish boy."
However, on her wrinkled face, tears quietly appeared in her eyes. Her voice was wet and hoarse, and her dry hand gently caressed Du Shaofu's face as she said, "Alright. If there's a chance in the future, Grandmother will definitely follow you back to take a look. From now on, you will be this grandma's grandson."
"Yes, as long as I don't die, I will definitely bring Grandma away and take care of her for the rest of her life." Du Shaofu said with a serious expression.
"Silly child, Grandma isn't dead yet. How could you die? You'll definitely be fine."
The old lady smiled with benevolence and satisfaction. In the past few decades, she had never smiled.
Abruptly, the old lady looked into the distance and said to Du Shaofu, "Child, grandmother still has things to do, so she'll be leaving first.
"Granny, this is for you. You are not a cultivator, so after consuming these pill, you can strengthen your body and strengthen your health."
Du Shaofu fished out a number of low level pill s and handed them over to the old lady. They were all pill s who had strong bodies and could be consumed by ordinary people, but he did not know where they came from.
At the same time, Du Shaofu also gave the old lady quite a few pill and spirit medicines, and said: "Grandmother, take these. If anything happens to me today, there will be a day when you can leave this place and sell these things.
The old lady was startled, she took the pill and spirit medicine from Du Shaofu's hands, laughed, then took the broom in her hand and left.
"This foolish child ?"
The instant she turned around, tears filled the old lady's wrinkled face. However, there was a smile on her face.
