Divine Brilliance - Chapter 114
Chapter 114: Chapter 114 Sweeping Donglin
Looking at that Lian Fan, Zong Shou hesitated slightly, at first glance knowing he was a person of few words.
Even when Liancheng said he was going to give him over to Zong Shou as a slave, he was unmoved, not having the pride that a Xiantian expert should have.
Telling Chuxue to drive the carriage was similar to testing her true qi controlling ability. If they gained these eighteen Windrider Foals it would be pushing it a little. He would probably have use for such a coachman.
Just as he was hesitating, the eyes of Xuanyuan Yiran, who had been lost in her own world and totally ignorant of what happened beside her, lit up. “I understand now! This pill formula is amazing, it’s better than my sect’s Exceptional Chilling Pill. I am unable to find that ice blue grass and snow stem, but I can try to replace them with other items! Who knows I might be able to create a new recipe!”
Under such a situation she really wanted to jump up and kiss Zong Shou, but in the end she managed to maintain some rationality. Her face flushed red as she exited through the window. Zong Shou was speechless. Without the Ice Blue Grass and Snow Stem, what kind of Chill Spirit Mysterious Sense Pill would that be? At most it would just increase soul power, but to remove the fiery power from the Mysterious Moon Wood Brilliance Method was impossible.
Opening his mouth to say something but stopping in the end, he instead just sighed helplessly. He once again looked out of the window, “Okay, I will accept him!”
Liancheng was ecstatic, kowtowing once more. “Thank you, Prince, for Lian Fan to follow benefactor is his luck! City Lord also said that Cloud Saint City is far in the east and he can’t help you much, but if the Prince controls Gantian Mountain and wants to conquer Donglin, we will follow your orders! We will help the Prince sweep Donglin…”
After he said that he moved aside, respectfully standing at the side of the road with the other martial cultivators.
Zong Shou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He was returning to Gantian Mountain just to complete the wishes of the other Zong Shou. What conquer Donglin, he didn’t have the time or intention to do so!
——
After changing to the Windrider Foals, Zong Shou’s carriage speed close to doubled. Lian Fan’s skill was much better than Chuxue’s, saying nothing as he guided the horses. His face was cold, similar to Yin Yang.
Li Yunniang didn’t leave with Xuanyuan Yiren, keeping silent and judging Zong Shou up and down, numerous thoughts flooding her mind and rumbling like waves.
What did that half-monster kid do for Cloud Saint City to owe him so much? Even if he saved Xu Zhengyuan’s life, he didn’t need to do this!
And also, how this ‘Cloud Saint City will follow all their orders’..! Even willing to go under them and support Zong Shou!
She was speechless and helpless and surprised…
Observing carefully, Li Yunniang couldn’t help but shake her head. This Zong Shou didn’t even have any martial cultivator energy, and he didn’t even open a single meridian.
Was such a person worthy of Liancheng being so respectful? Was it because of the people behind him? Or maybe Gantian Mountain’s Zong Weiran hadn’t died…
Puzzled and not understanding, Li Yunniang couldn’t help but open her mouth and ask, “What were you doing in Cloud Saint City?”
Zong Shou lazily opened his eyes, expressionlessly looking at that woman, acting like he didn’t see her as he continued to lie on the soft mattress. He was too lazy to even take a look at her.
His temperament was good and chatty, but it didn’t mean that he didn’t have a temper.
Li Yunniang was gloomy, coldly scoffing, knowing that she would be unable to get an answer. Within Zong Shou’s eyes a glow appeared, looking at the gifts that Liancheng sent over.
Zong Shou didn’t pay attention to the beast crystals and pill bottles. He casually waved his hand and a long wooden box flew over to his hand.
This True Qi Catching art came from the cultivation method he had just formed. It was really sharp, when he summoned it he didn’t control his strength and the silk to tore into pieces.
His explosiveness was strong, but his stamina was really weak. Even after remodelling to his spiraling meridians it didn’t improve greatly.
In a life and death battle it would be decided in a short moment; if he didn’t win, he would die. The sharper and stronger it was, the more suitable it was for him.
However, it was still a blueprint, and if he wanted to train in it he needed a period of time to perfect it.
He used a palm to open up the wooden box, and saw a shiny sword lying within.
“Lightning Tooth Sword?” Zong Shou’s eyes shone, after looking closely he realized that it wasn’t. It was actually a half-Spiritual Weapon, which after a failure in crafting looked like the Lightning Tooth Sword.
Although it was unable to become a Spiritual Weapon, the strength of the lightning element was still stronger than normal Lightning Tooth Sword. As it was intended to be a Spiritual Weapon, the sharpness of this sword was only weaker than that of his Black Wave Sword.
“What a good thing! I was just worrying about how my sword was being hurt greatly by that spiral sword energy! With this item here I have nothing to worry about.”
Activating his meridians, a sword energy instantly seeped out from the tip of the sword, the spiritual patterns within weren’t damaged at all.
Zong Shou smiled slightly before stowing the sword, and in the next moment he took out a Meridian Spirit Pill. After he tested it out, he realized that his meridians had already stabilized and he could use the second pill.
Just as Zong Shou was about to release the Monster Eye Silver Bear out, he remembered his other Protector Spirit Beast, the Rising Moon Lion.
“We are now away from Cloud Saint City, it is time to recall Little Zhi!”
His hands forming a seal as he used his mind to make contact. Just as he was about to summon it, he suddenly thought about Xuanyuan Yiren, who was following behind him. Hesitating slightly, the Rising Moon Lion suddenly sent out a message to him.
“Peak Xiantian? There is actually another Out of Body spirit master?”
Zong Shou’s eyes turned cold, giving up on that thought. He walked in front of the carriage and looked coldly at the low mountains peaks to his left.
He smiled without a care, looking at Chuxue who was trying to make herself look small to reduce her presence. “Stop trying to slack! Since you don’t need to control the carriage, go and catch birds!”
Her face instantly became more bitter than bitter gourds. Zong Shou was delighted, and a sense of joy rose. Was this the happiness of teasing young girls?
How not encouraging, I actually became a perverted person…
——————-
Between the mountains, at the small mountain peak of a four thousand foot-high mountain, four people were looking down.
Three of them were looking really cold and handsome, giving off a serious aura.
If Zong Shou was here, he would recognize that the leader of them was the Decitful Sword Ren Qianchou, who he had met in Cloud Saint City.
Yin Yang, who was more experienced instead, would be able to recognise Xie Jun and Yun Tao beside him.
They all had a threatening aura, the two of them like unsheathed weapons, feeling slightly different. Yun Tao’s aura was explosive and strong, while Xie Jun’s one was like a mist, really indiscernible.
The other person was around thirty years old, yellow-skinned and normal looking. His face had several talismans drawn on it, and he sent off a really weird energy.
His hands formed a seal as threads of blue light gathered in his palm. Within their four eyes, a blue rune flashed.
After a short moment, a look of exhaustion appeared on the yellow faced middle aged man, and the blue light dissipated. The runes in their eyes also disappeared. The yellow-faced middle aged man closed his eyes to cultivate for a short moment before expressionlessly saying, “This hundred mile farsight technique was easy to train, but uses up so much soul power. Avoiding the notice of the two Xiantians uses up a lot more energy. I am just at the Out of Body Realm and can’t last for long!”
“Brother Zhuang’s technique is already really good. Fifty miles away and we can still see things like they were in front of our eyes. Spirit master techniques are really magical!” that Xie Jun praised, but looked like he didn’t understand something, “The attitude of that Cloud Saint City is so weird! All the people we arranged near the city gate were killed. Now he even sent so many gifts, eighteen Windrider Foals, and also a Xiantian expert. What did this Prince say when he met the City Lord? Why did even that Liancheng become so respectful towards Zong Shou? If Xu Zhengyuan truly wanted to protect him, then why did he allow him to leave?”
His voice was filled with confusion. Not only Xie Jun, the other people were the same. Their expressions were all filled with doubt.
“The reasoning of that City Lord is so difficult to guess, or maybe he couldn’t resist the pressure and could only chase off this Zong Shou to leave. Sending the gifts was only because he didn’t want to make enemies with the person backing him. Unfortunately, we can only see with this technique and not listen..”
Ren Qianchou shook his head as he tried to guess. When he thought about the massacre that happened outside the city, it didn’t make sense. His tone also became serious.
“I only know that this situation isn’t right. If we don’t deal with him soon, things might change!”
“I agree!”
Xie Jun nodded, “It is better to end this matter sooner. Only, that Xuan Mountain City Princess is tough to deal with. To kill Zong Shou, we have to go through her. Speaking of which, what is she thinking, is she so dumb to like that trash Zong Shou? Why did she have to involve herself in this? Her father is the Xuan Mountain City Lord. If it is possible, it is best not to make enemies with them…”
Yun Tao’s brow furrowed, his expression unhappy, growling, “Why should we care, if this woman dares to stop us, I will kill her together with him. When we brothers do things we only care about enjoying it and being straightforward, why should we worry about it so much?”
