Killing God - Chapter 198
Chapter 198 Gift Pill
“Huh?”
The first to react was Sun You. He looked at Zhong Qingzhu in shock, then turned to look at Shen Shi and frowned, “What happened? Why did she call you Shi Shi at first sight?”
The smile on Shen Shi’s face froze. He didn’t know what to say for a moment, Or perhaps he himself didn’t quite understand … Back then, when he was on Bluefish Island, He and Zhong Qingzhu had shared the same tribulation before, After ten days of helping each other survive in a secluded pit, their friendship became much better. However, perhaps because of Zhong Qingzhu’s shyness, she had specifically promised Shen Shi that she would call him Senior Brother Shen. When she met him in private, she would call him Shen Shi by the nickname of Stone, which sounded close to her.
However, three years had passed, and even Shen Shi himself felt that there seemed to be some distance between him and her back then. However, Zhong Qingzhu called out the word “stone” at the first meeting, causing Shen Shi to be slightly surprised. However, looking at Zhong Qingzhu’s sincere and happy smile, he suddenly didn’t seem to want to think too much. He shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Sun You, saying, “I don’t know either. Perhaps I learned it from you, right?”
After saying that, he smiled and walked down the stone steps towards Zhong Qingzhu. Behind him, Sun You curled his lips, snorted, and muttered to himself, “It would be strange for her to learn from me.”
He walked to Zhong Qingzhu and said, I haven’t seen you in three years, Her figure had already bloomed. In the sea breeze and under the shade of trees, bits and pieces of sunlight fell beside her. They were like tiny bits of light, dazzling and beautiful. The shyness and timidity of the past were no longer seen. She looked at Shen Shi with a smile. Her smile was as calm and confident as a flower blooming in spring. It was the most beautiful and beautiful season of her life.
At such a time, who have you ever met in the best time of your life?
Have you ever been in a trance for a moment, have you ever felt excited, have you really given all of your heart to a single person?
She smiled as she stood there and watched the man slowly walk in front of her. Three years had passed since he had thought that he would never see her again, and he had once again appeared here. She seemed to have countless words in her heart, and she remembered the memories of Qingyu Island. However, in the shade of the trees under the sun, she was still unable to say anything for some reason. In the end, she only smiled and said,
“Aiya, you’ve grown a lot taller.”
Shen Shi laughed and touched his head.

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu walked side by side through the ancient vines, chatting about the changes and personnel in the past three years. As for Sun You, he suddenly remembered that he still had an urgent matter to attend to and greeted Shen Shi. He said that he would come back to look for him and left first.
During the chat, Shen Shi clearly felt that Zhong Qingzhu was indeed much more open-minded than when he accidentally left Qingyu Island three years ago. He spoke with confidence and generosity, and his beautiful appearance was the same as when he first came back to see Zhong Qinglu yesterday. It was an amazing feeling.
Shen Shi couldn’t help but mutter to himself in a low voice, “Truly a female eighteen transformations …”
Who would have thought that Zhong Qingzhu would take a step closer to him and say, “What are you talking about, Stone?”
This “stone” sound was light and friendly. Shen Shi disturbed his head and said, “I didn’t say anything.”
“Cut!” Zhong Qingzhu glanced at him and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly. “That means that I said something bad. Hmph, did that fellow Sun You say something to you about me?”
Shen Shi hurriedly shook his head and said, “No, no, I mean … well, I actually sighed just now. It’s been three years since I last saw you. You’re really different now.”
Zhong Qingzhu’s eyebrows twitched and his eyes lit up. He looked at Shen Shi and said, “Oh, what’s different?”
Shen Shi hesitated for a moment. He looked at Zhong Qingzhu’s beautiful face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling. In the end, he said honestly, “You are more beautiful now than when you were on Bluefish Island.”
Zhong Qingzhu looked at him and didn’t say anything for a long time. Shen Shi suddenly felt a little confused and said, “What’s wrong? Why are you always looking at me?”
Zhong Qingzhu narrowed his eyes slightly. A moment later, a gentle smile slowly appeared. She took a step forward in the shade of the tree and just happened to pass through a gap. The sun shone on her body with exceptionally bright eyes and warmth. Then, she turned around and saw Shen Shi still standing on the spot. She waved her hand and smiled in the sunlight and said, “Let’s go. It seems that you haven’t seen him for a few years. You’ve also learned to say nice things to coax girls.”
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment. He shook his head and walked over. He smiled and said, “No, I’m telling the truth. Oh, just like yesterday, when I first returned to the Spirit Medicine Hall, she became very beautiful when I saw Zhong Qinglu.”
The smile on Zhong Qingzhu’s face seemed to stop for a moment, but she was so fast that Shen Shi didn’t notice it. Then she smiled and asked him, “Yes, my sister is a great beauty that everyone loves. Do you think … who is more beautiful than me?”
She smiled and looked at Shen Shi as if she had casually asked. Shen Shi spread out his hands and walked forward, saying, “You are almost as beautiful as her.”
After taking two steps, Shen Shi suddenly realized that something was amiss. He turned around and saw Zhong Qingzhu standing behind him looking at him. For a moment, he was a little puzzled and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Zhong Qingzhu smiled and walked over, saying softly, “Nothing much. Let’s go. By the way, did you just say that you picked out a golden stone armor Dao Art from the library?”
Shen Shi subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief. To be honest, the conversation with Zhong Qingzhu just now had inexplicably shifted to the topic of who was more beautiful than her or Zhong Qinglu. This made him feel very conflicted and somewhat bored. Now that he had just returned to the mountain, his heart was filled with the desire to start cultivating and upgrading his cultivation as soon as possible. He did not pay much attention to other areas.
However, perhaps it was also because the problem was too difficult to solve, so he subconsciously avoided it?
This thought flashed through Shen Shi’s mind. However, when he heard Zhong Qingzhu mention the Dao Art divine ability, his spirits instantly lifted. He immediately forgot about those inexplicable thoughts and nodded to her.
Along the way, the mountain path was silent. The two figures walked side by side in the direction of Guanhai platform. When the wide and flat square appeared in front of them, Zhong Qingzhu looked around as if he was looking for something. However, after a moment, he did not seem to see anyone. He turned around and walked with Shen Shi until he arrived at a pillar of Hongjun in the middle of Guanhai platform.
The towering Hongjun Pillar was majestic and majestic. Standing at the foot of the giant pillar, he raised his head and looked up. It was as if he saw a giant, causing a tiny feeling to arise in his heart. At this moment, the sky was clear and the sea breeze was refreshing. There were quite a few disciples of Lingxiao Sect walking around on the viewing platform, either looking at the sea or taking a leisurely stroll. Their expressions were relaxed and comfortable.
Zhong Qingzhu leaned against the enormous Hongjun pillar and looked at Shen Shi. He frowned slightly and said, “You chose the Golden Stone Armor. Although it isn’t bad, there isn’t a single attack dao technique. In the future, if you want to go out and hunt demonic beasts or do missions that require fighting techniques, I’m afraid it will be very troublesome.”
Although his words were tactful, Shen Shi could still hear the meaning of Zhong Qingzhu’s words and that faint concern. In fact, not long ago, Sun You had said something similar. However, Shen Shi naturally had his own thoughts in his heart. He smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. Moreover, now that he has chosen all the choices, it’s too late to go back on his word.”
Zhong Qingzhu took a deep look at him and lowered his head slightly. After a while, he sighed and said, “Yeah, there’s no way to regret it. Furthermore, when you were in Qingyu Island, it seemed like you were special … you had your own ideas, but you’re much better than me.”
Shen Shi’s heart skipped a beat. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a surprised cry from afar.
“Ah, Junior Sister Zhong, so you’re here. I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”

Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu turned around and saw a man quickly walking over from the direction of the Spirit Medicine Hall in Guanhai platform. Shen Shi suddenly felt that he looked familiar. After thinking for a moment, he remembered that the man with a round face and a jade box in his hand was the Ji Anfu he had seen yesterday when he was picking up the pills in the Spirit Medicine Hall.
Ji Anfu quickly walked closer and looked at Zhong Qingzhu with a smile on his face. However, a moment later, he suddenly saw Shen Shi standing beside Zhong Qingzhu and looking at him with a surprised expression. He couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. However, a moment later, he turned his gaze to Zhong Qingzhu, and his eyes were filled with eagerness.
“Junior Sister Zhong, this is the second-grade ‘Spirit Strengthening Pill’ that you want. As you know, this kind of pill is not easy to refine, and its price is not cheap. In addition, its effect is too high to be considered an indispensable spirit pill. Therefore, disciples who normally buy and consume it are rare. There is no stock on the medicine shelves in the Spirit Medicine Hall. I only found it after carefully searching in the pill storehouse.”
As he spoke, he looked at this beautiful and delicate woman, his heart burning for no reason. These two young and beautiful women of the Zhong Clan had been considered influential figures among the younger generation of Golden Rainbow Mountain disciples these past few years. Needless to say, they were beautiful and stunning. Their talent in the future was also astonishing. In comparison, this Zhong Qingzhu had already been directly accepted into the sect by Elder Le Jingshan of the Array Hall. Her prospects were simply limitless. Being able to suddenly gain her favor seemed to lighten the bones on Ji Anfu’s body by a bit.
Zhong Qingzhu took the jade box from Ji Anfu and nodded with a smile. “Thank you, Senior Brother Ji, I’m sorry to trouble you.”
Ji Anfu laughed loudly and said, “It’s nothing, it’s just a small matter. Oh right, Junior Sister Zhong, you have recently made a breakthrough in this Spirit Strengthening Pill. Tsk tsk, I’ve already seen that your talent is extraordinary, your future is boundless, your future is boundless.”
Zhong Qingzhu smiled. He didn’t say anything else, He reached out to wipe his waist. After a brief pause, Shen Shi noticed that there did not seem to be a Ruyi bag hanging there. However, a moment later, a bag appeared in Zhong Qingzhu’s hand. As she moved, a clear and crisp sound could be heard. The bag looked heavy, and the contents inside should not be light. Zhong Qingzhu handed the bag to Ji Anfu and smiled, “Senior Brother Ji, this is a spirit crystal. Please count it.”
Ji Anfu took it and waved his hand, “Junior Sister Zhong, are you joking? I can’t trust anyone else, can I trust you? Anyway, if you need any pills in the future, just come to the Spirit Medicine Hall and find me.”
Zhong Qingzhu smiled and nodded, “Alright, thank you, Senior Brother Ji.”
Ji Anfu saw her smiling brightly, as beautiful as a flower. For a moment, he felt his heart was filled with joy, and he even felt that he did not know where he was.
However, in the next moment, his smile suddenly froze. He saw Zhong Qingzhu turn around and face Shen Shi, but he gently stuffed the jade box into Shen Shi’s hand.
At that moment, a surprised expression appeared on Shen Shi’s face. He seemed to be shaking his head and saying something that he wanted to refuse. Zhong Qingzhu shook his head slightly. His expression was gentle but he firmly grabbed his hand and asked him to accept it.
However, Ji Anfu didn’t seem to be able to hear a single word of these words. His gaze was only fixed on the jade box. The jade box that Zhong Qingzhu had gently and gently stuffed into Shen Shi’s hand. He looked at the fair and gentle hand that held the man’s hand with a gentle and caring hand.
He let out a silent roar in his heart and gripped the bag of spirit crystals tightly in an instant.
