Chapter 156: Chapter 156 Conning and Extorting

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Speaking about that sword technique, Yan Fan’s eyes revealed fear. How could there be such an evil sword technique existing in the Cloud World? How did Zong Shou learn it?

When that person in white danced with the sword, it was like the death god descending on the Earth. When the sword was pulled out, others would die.

In terms of the sword path, naturally it was that celestial-like sword that Zong Shou used before that was the most astonishing.

But in terms of killings and life and death battles, that River Styx Death Sword was the top choice!

He closed his eyes suddenly, his tone returning to calm and composed, “Using the death energy of Heaven and Earth to harm the enemy. Although it is slightly evil, it contains the path of the heavens and doesn’t fall into the devil’s techniques. As long as he doesn’t use it often, nothing bad would happen from it!”

The lips of Shui Lingbo twitched upwards in disdain. Yan Fan couldn’t help but laugh and knew that nothing would happen if they continued to argue with one another. He shook his head, “I’m liking this kid more and more! I can’t bear to give up on him. But with both of us not wanting to budge, it isn’t a solution...”

Shui Lingbo laughed coldly, “What do you want? Within these twenty-odd days, we have gambled ten rounds! Three sword battles, two talisman drawings, four chess battles, and we still are unable to find a victor! This time what do you want to bet? If you say something about drawing or books, I’m not that dumb. If I suggest going all out in a battle you probably won’t agree!”

Yan Fan was stunned to silence. This matter was indeed tough to settle. It wasn’t that he couldn’t win, just that during chess he had to let her have three pieces, in terms of sword sparring and talisman drawing there were many restrictions...

Lei Dong felt like crying, but no tears came out. For this matter, he had been trapped for thirty-odd days here, unable to break free, who knew when he could...

Lei Dong scoffed, “Why don’t both of you make concessions; why don’t the two sects share, one person, two teachers?”

When he said that, Yan Fan and Shui Lingbo’s killing intent boiled as they looked over coldly. The former scoffed heavily, “Bullshit! If two sects share him, who is the main and who is the sub? If he learned those extreme evil sayings of the Common People Path, how will I explain to the ancestors of Wujue Villa? If this son falls into the devil path, I would rather take his life by my own hands.”

Shui Lingbo also scoffed, “I’m more afraid he is corrupted by your thoughts and his brain becomes spoiled. If he joins Wujue Villa, I would help my Common People Path eliminate a huge enemy!”

Lei Dong couldn’t help, but roll his eyes, looking into the sky. He had totally give up hope on these two people.

He looked at the side, only to see Zhao Yanran casually playing around with a saber and sword. Her mind was focused on other things, and she seemed really excited.

If one looked carefully, one would realize that the trajectory of the sword and saber were similar to those of Zong Shou and Hu Qianqiu, it only lacked a bit of intent. It was obvious that this crazy woman had learned a lot from that battle.

This woman really knew how to enjoy herself. Sadly, his Miss Zhenru would probably feel really lonely, not seeing him for so many days...

———–

On the roof of the carriage, Zong Shou sighed as he looked out at Xuanyuan Yiren’s carriage leaving in the distance.

He had a sense of emptiness, like something was leaving from beside his body.

Just like that, only four people were left beside him. Zong Shou’s eyes turned dark. They way those three Xuan Mountain Xiantian Masters looked at him made him feel really uncomfortable.

He didn’t care about people looking down on him, but that expression was obviously anger and disgust.

Chuxue was also filled with reluctance, “How unfortunate! Why did her Mother fall sick so suddenly? Doesn’t that mean we will only see her after a few months? May the heavens bless her such that nothing happens!”

Zong Shou rolled his eyes. This girl was so pure that she thought that the Xuan Mountain City Lord’s wife was really sick.

However, he didn’t wish to comment on this matter. There was no need to always think the worst of others, maybe she really was sick?

Just as he shook his head, he heard Chuxue turn around and ask seriously, “Young Master, Xue’er is thinking about her now. Why not go to Xuan Mountain City and marry her back?”

Zong Shou was speechless, knocking onto her head. “I think you don’t miss her, but that medicine candy she gave you!”

Chuxue was astonished, and a little panicky, her eyes turning red. “Young Master, we don’t have to return to Gantian Mountain. A few days ago didn’t you say that you would return to ascend the throne...”

“Why should I return? To get played by people?” Zong Shou smiled coldly, the glow in his eyes flickering, not noticing that his focus was successfully drawn away by Chuxue.

With Hu Qianqiu’s help, Gantian Mountain was two-thirds under his control. If he turned back, it was okay if he was willing to be a puppet. But the moment he showed intentions to take control, the reactions of Zong Shi and Zong Yang would be unpredictable.

With the enemy outside, if there were still people who backstabbed them, the situation would turn ugly.

It was because Hu Qianqiu’s ability was far above what he had predicted that he changed his mind.

With that reliable rock taking charge, he could help him stabilize Gantian Mountain, so why not just continue on outside?

Wouldn’t it be better if he returned after he broke through to Xiantian?

Speaking of which, he was still too weak. If he had Hu Qianqiu’s ability, below the Ascended Realm he would be invincible. Even Hu Zhongyuan’s level was enough, at least when he faced Xuanwu Ancestors he had a shot.

Thinking back to the Eight Tailed Sky Fox king race’s Xue Family, and also his mother’s Lu Family, which ruled eight hundred worlds, he couldn’t help but feel a headache.

He still needed to find a strong person to rely on, be it the sword sect standing behind Wujue Villa, or the Common People Path behind Taiyuan Sect, only...

Thinking about this matter, Zong Shou was really hesitant and indecisive. An urge rose from his body as he suddenly turned around, not bothering about anything and shouting towards the sky, “Oi! The two of you, do you have a result? If you aren’t going to decide, let me go to Tailing Sect to find a master!”

Hu Zhongyuan who was standing in front of him looked around at a loss. There was no one around them, so he didn’t know who Zong Shou was talking to and thought that he was just being crazy.

However it didn’t seem like a bad decision to go to that Tailing Sect. Other people might not know, but he had heard people say that they were the top Shrine in the Cloud World.

If they were the shield for Zong Shou, Gantian Mountain would have nothing to worry about, all the chaos would also naturally be solved.

Just as he was finding it weird, there was a explosion sound at the side. The tens of thousands of miles of clear sky suddenly had lightning rumbling. Bucket-thick lightning bolts brushed by Zong Shou and struck beside the carriage, instantly blowing out a hundred-yard wide circular ditch.

The dozen Windrider Foals instantly neighed out in panic and jumped up in shock. Zong Yuan, who was acting as the coachman, tried his best and was barely able to calm them down.

Hu Zhongyuan felt a chill go down his spine. That lightning bolt struck down without any sign. If it had hit someone, even a Martial Ancestor like him at the five meridians of the Earth Chakra level, would turn into a pile of ashes.

A person who was able to summon such a strike was at least above Day Wandering Realm!

Luckily this carriage was floating in mid air, so it wasn’t affected by that lightning.

Zong Shou sighed inside, he knew that the outcome would be like this. He very calmly adjusted himself and pushed down the hair standing up because of that lightning. Suddenly his heart moved and he continued to look up, using a discussing tone, “This can’t work, that can’t work! My good future is being wasted by both of you like this, you have to compensate me! Furthermore, before I choose a master, you should at least give me some greeting gifts, right?”

The sky was silent. After a short while, a ball of light descended and landed slowly on the roof of the carriage.

Looking closely, it was ten two-fist sized wine bottles. Although the bottles were closed, there was a thick wine fragrance rushing towards his face.

Zong Shou took a look as his lips instantly twitched. Wasn’t this the ten bottles of celestial brew that Lei Dong promised him? The two of them were really stingy, eagles who don’t go away until they see rabbits. Before they recruited him, they wouldn’t give him any benefits!

He was furious in his heart and decided to resist, scoffing as he pointed towards the sky, “I have made my mind up! Whichever one of you is the first to give me something good, I will make them my master, I won’t go against my words!”

This time, before his words finished, two bundles of light descended from the sky. The left one was blue,inside it was a Spiritual Weapon which rolled and spun as it fell down, plunging into a large stone beside the carriage. The sword’s handle continued to shake, but actually didn’t break from all the momentum.

On the other side was a small pill bottle which landed in front of Zong Shou at pretty much the same time. The medical fragrance entering his nose and was no weaker than the ten bottles of celestial brew from Lei Dong.

Zong Shou was slightly delighted, just as he was about to try harder to try to extort more from them, only to see some frenzied lightning flicker in the skies. Another vast sword energy surged about in the sky like a dragon, flowing around.

Be it those lightning arcs or sword energy, they were both filled with killing intent. Zong Shou stopped breathing and decided it was better if he not go too far.

Looking at the situation, if he spoke more, the lightning glow and sword energy would directly chop down on him.

He mumbling to himself, and just as he was about to order Chuxue to stash the pill bottle and wine bottles, he turned around and his jaw dropped. Chuxue was holding onto an opened wine bottle, her face was totally red, her eyes were blurred, with totally no sense of depth.

Zong Shou’s brow furrowed, and just as he was about to smack her with his fist, he saw a ball of energy rise up around her. The surrounding spiritual energy exploded out, surging in a rhythm along with her breathing.

Chuxue opened her eyes in confusion, and then she burped out loud. “Oh? Young Master, Xue’er seems to have broken through to Xiantian!”
