Chapter 1177: Meeting Once More

“Buhui was beheaded and to date he is still hung on the Imperial City city walls?”

Zong Shou was stunned, thinking to himself that Yinyu still acted in the end.

He thought that Yuanchen Emperor wasn’t dumb. Who knew that someone who was so scheming would also be so anxious.

The rage and sadness in his heart was at its maximum. However, he laughed instead of feeling angry.

Jin Buhui that dummy could have left Great Shang long ago. He knew that the situation was like that, that the entire Great Shang was totally corrupted, that he himself couldn’t save them. However, he still allowed Yinyu to manipulate him.

What was bad about staying in the jail? Just treat it as secluded meditation. All he had to do was wait a few years and then he could get out.

Why did he have to say those things to provoke Yinyu?

Did he not know that he would be walking a path of no return? No matter whether Great Shang rose or fell, Yinyu wouldn’t let him live.

Yuan Wushang didn’t speak just about Jin Buhui but also about how Yinyu praised Kong Yao’s beauty and said that he wanted her as his hostage.

Zong Shou didn’t care much about all of that. He didn’t get angry. With how experienced he was, he wouldn’t lose his mind just because YInyu provoked him.

At most, the Yuanchen Emperor got the upper hand over him in terms of words.

He slightly cared about the Hundred Victory Pa.s.s situation. Who knew what the situation there was like?

s.h.i.+ Qianli sent all his troops while Great Gan needed to retract one arm to use elsewhere.

Zong Shou could pretty much imagine that Kong Yao was barely holding on and struggling because of this.

He took in a deep breath. Zong Shou’s fists started to crackle. He clenched it and suppressed the worry and rage in his chest.

“How did that Wushang Yuan Demon become the Great Shang Grand Teacher? Didn’t End Realm cultivators agree not to interfere in the Cloud World. Who was the person who instigated the Jin Buhui matter? Those few families and those high ranking officials should now know the outcome of offending me.”

“I don’t know about Li Biexue but that he suddenly appeared in front of the Fenghua Palace, causing the world to be in an uproar. However, if he joined hands with Yinyu, with the twelve Copper Men, even if the dozen End Realm experts of the Cloud World worked together, he would still be unafraid. Then, naturally he wouldn’t care about the agreement either.”

The one who replied was Lin Xuanxuan. She also found this matter really weird. Li Biexue pretty much didn’t bother about anything.

“He is not caring about the survival of the Demon Path, like he was going all out…”

Lin Xuanxuan was only guessing while Zong Shou understood a portion of the reasons.

Li Biexue definitely knew that once the battle of the Qin Emperor Tomb ended, that the two of them couldn’t share the same world.

He was also worried that the five End Realm experts of the Common People’s Vast Habitat would attack him or that his wings fell into the hands of Xiuguan.

With the Common People’s Path’s current strength, if they were willing to pay some price, Li Biexue would definitely die.

To form an alliance with Yinyu was both to be expected and both reasonable.

However, what was the situation with Jin Buhui?

“It is Zuoxin! The current Hanlin Academy Advisor!”

Yuan Wushang laughed coldly, “In the past, he was Jin Buhui’s master and he wanted to draw the line between them to show his loyalty. Or maybe someone behind him told him to do so…”

Zong Shou could feel that the breath he was exhaling was becoming hotter and hotter.

Zuoxin? It seems like this person’s memory wasn’t that good!

Did he disregard what he said in the past?

Zong Shou’s smile got even wider. However, it gave one a bone-chilling feeling. Green veins popped out from the corner of his forehead.

Chuxue held her breath as she felt a chill down her spine. She felt that Zong Shou’s current rage was no lower than when Su Xiaoxiao had killed herself in the underground palace.

That rage caused the death of fifteen Saint Realm experts.

So what would the outcome of this be?

Yuan Wushang continued to stir trouble, he scoffed coldly, “What are you still thinking about? If I were you I would send troops and wipe out Great Shang. Jin Buhui is stupid and no one can save him. However, your own woman is humiliated and you must make Yinyu pay that price. Cloud World’s rise and fall, the life and death of the ma.s.ses, the Confucian Faction and Taoist Faction doesn’t care. So, why do you care? What big situation? Just give up Tianfang World, who cares about Dark World Demon Court!”

Lin Xuanxuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This person’s explosive personality was both his strength and weakness.

Fortunately, the Ruler of Great Gan was Zong Shou and not Yuan Wushang.

“Brother Yuan’s words aren’t suitable…”

Zong Shou closed his eyes and thought about it. Moments later, he shook his head and opened them.

Solely because of the billions of people under him, he wouldn’t give up on Tianfang World. That was the responsibility of a Ruler!

If the Dark Night Demon Court would only attack Great Shang and the other countries of the Cloud World, he would be too lazy to care about their lives and deaths.

However, at this moment, Tianfang World was the only world that could stop them.

Which was why to attack Great Shang now was impossible.

Just as Yuan Wushang scoffed to show unhappiness, Zong Shou’s tone changed and it turned serious.

“It seems like I am too kind so everyone dares to offend and scheme against me! Time after time they do that! Today, I won’t return to Gantian Mountain, please help me spread the message three days later, July 20. I will personally head to Imperial City to get Jin Buhui’s body and take Yinyu’s head! Everyone says that I am the Blood Sword Monster Lord and am invincible in the world. Since I am so strong, how can I let people bully me?”

He spoke each word very firmly…

What joke was this person getting at?

No matter how weak Great Shang was, Yinyu had gathered several Saint Realm experts these past few years.

They had the four aristocratic families, millions of troops, the twelve Copper Men and also Wushang Yuan Demon Li Biexue.

At this moment, even if an End Realm cultivator got close, they would be at risk of dying!

Wouldn’t Zong Shou be asking to die if he just went just like that?

Even Yuan Wushang regretted it. Did his words provoke Zong Shou?

Commanding tens of thousands of troops and heading in alone was totally different.

Zong Shou looked really serious and he didn’t look like he was joking at all.

“Master Xuanxuan! I wanted to ask if we had a chance to surround and kill Wushang Yuan Demon in the Imperial City, is the Common People’s Path interested?”

Lin Xuanxuan was stunned. Hearing his tone, he sounded really confident.

Did Zong Shou really believe he could succeed?

She hesitated slightly and said, “When Senior Brother Xi Zi fell, Li Biexue also joined in. Senior Sister Yuanjing always suspected whether or not he knew where his body was sealed. If we can take revenge, we will go all out. However, Xiuguan has another matter and isn’t here…”

“I don’t need Senior Master Xiuguan for this.”

Zong Shou shook his head. Seeing the confusion on their faces, he didn’t understand. He said, “I control the twelve Copper Men now, so there is no need to worry about Yinyu. I will tell you the details later.”

He waved his sleeves and pulled the Blue Fire Xuan Turtle that was carrying Su Xiaoxiao to his front.

“Senior Master, please bring her back to the Vast Habitat and ask Master Xuanshuang to help save her. I need to visit someone and whether or not this battle goes as I wish will depend on him! If I go too late he will have already left the Cloud World…”

Lin Xuanxuan’s eyes shone brightly. Counter to control the twelve Copper Men, were those words true?

If that was the case, then not only would the Imperial Capital not be a trap, but instead it would be the main battlefield between Zong Shou and the Common People’s Path.

Yuan Wushang was pumped up. If that was true, then Li Biexue would just be asking for death.

Zong Shou stopped worrying about the two of them and stepped into the s.p.a.ce.

Lin Xuanxuan thought about something and said seriously, “Don’t forget that the Tianfang World situation is bad. If we don’t reinforce it, it won’t even be able to last for another half a month.”

Zong Shou paused for a moment and then continued forwards.

There was no need for half a month. In just 10 days, he would give them a surprise.

※※※※

After splitting up with Lin Xuanxuan and Yuan Wushang, Zong Shou didn’t even bring Su Chuxue along with him.

He used the Unlimited Beginning and End Movement Technique to activate the shuttle, speeding towards the outer region of the Cloud World like a bolt of lightning.

The current situation was totally different from when he had left.

When he was Spirit Realm, he took close to a month to get to Tianfang World.

At this moment, he needed just one day. He was close to thirty times faster.

With the Instant s.p.a.ce Dragon Pellets and teleporting ability, in just two days, he was hundreds of worlds out.

At this moment, he sensed something. He changed directions and saw several streaks of light in the s.p.a.ce.

Seemingly noticing Zong Shou’s arrival, the light also stopped.

The one at the head was Xufu. His eyes were filled with curiosity and confusion as he looked back.

Zong Shou stopped the shuttle and appeared a breath away.

“I thought that Mr Xufu would spend a while in the Cloud World.”

Xufu burst out laughing, “The Qin Emperor Tomb matter has ended, so there is no reason for me to stay. The thing failed and my dream has failed. I am prepared to return to die. However, for Your Majesty to chase over, I am surprised.”

“I was able to swallow a lot of Dragon Energy and was able to obtain a portion of the true spirit and sense where you were.”

Xufu’s expression changed, however, Zong Shou still replied calmly.

“If you are worried that I swallowed it you don’t have to worry. The Qin Emperor’s body isn’t in the palace…”

This was something Zong Shou found weird. At the same time, both the pearl and the sword disappeared.

When the tomb collapsed they were nowhere to be seen. That was also the reason why the nine Celestial Treasures took over to gather the Dragon Energy.
