Chapter 428: Jade Muscles Celestial Body

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Dirt and stone flew all about, the pieces and bodily fluids of the sandworm scattered all about. Ruoshui frowned as she waved her sleeves, brushing everything.

The people nearby all gave out a soft scoff of regret.

Zong Shou knew that he was long hated by these people, and they wished that they got unlucky. He sighed, it wasn’t easy for him to run in front of them to establish some prestige, but this Xuan Shu had cleared it all out once more.

They saw the red colored sword light retract, and the person that was within it was Xuan Shu.

But this time, he didn’t walk away—he sat down right next to Zong Shou by the campfire.

“Just now, Xuan Shu had heard what the first seat said.”

Zong Shou was startled. Just now, when he spoke to the few of them, he used spells to block off the sounds, so how exactly did this Xuan Shu hear that?

Then his expression calmed down. There were treasures in this world like the sound conch. There were also other methods which were why he shouldn’t be surprised by it. He smiled as he asked, “Then in commander Xuan Shu’s eyes what is the possibility of us succeeding?”

“This is a great plan if the details are planned out we have a 70% chance.”

When Xuan Shu heard that, his gaze burned up as he looked at Zong Shou, “Now Xuan Shu finally know why the sect would let the first seat take charge of this matter. Xuan Shu has failed to judge correctly, the first seat please forgive me...”

Zong Shou was at a loss, he had a 70% chance? So high? He thought that there was only a 20% chance.

Following which Xuan Shu’s bright gaze made his hair feel numb. Thinking to himself that was Xuan Shu what the people of the future called glass? Why did he keep staring at him like that?

Within the void, at where the cloud world and the space barrier was at, at this moment there was also one person who was watching on with a passionate gaze. Carefully sizing up Zong Shou, his mouth continuously muttering.

“So that was the case, so that was the case! It was so simple. 20 years ago if I understood this, how would I have fallen for the plots of Tailing Sect? So many junior brothers and senior brothers fell in that Yan City Pass?”

A fist heavily hammering towards the side, causing the void to shake. The man was over 30, a middle-aged man with white-haired and who was in scholarly attire. His gaze was in a daze, pretty much losing his anxiousness and was filled with a self-blaming look. “Why didn’t I think about it in the past? If one just thought carefully about the connection between Tailing Sect and the Liao King, there were numerous traces. Xishan, hehe! Xishan, how did I forget about that fellow. Not bad, Zong Shou. I didn’t think this kid would be so intelligent. Not bad, our common people path 7th generation disciples and below, as compared to him they aren’t worth mentioning...”

Opposite this person sat an old man with a haggard face and a little girl who looked like she was carved out.

If Zong Shou was there he would recognize that the old man was his senior brother Hanfang and that girl was Shi Ruolan.

The little girl opened her mouth and wanted to say that her ruler master was amazing, but in the end, she didn’t dare to say it.

Hanfang’s expression was complicated, “Then in your eyes what are our chances this time?”

“80%!”

The white mustache middle-aged man raised his head, his face was full of disbelief, “Unfortunately this time our common people path didn’t expect to succeed. The reliable people we sent were too small in number. No one can go up against that Ji Lingzi. If not, we would have a 100% chance of succeeding. Even if we can’t succeed this time we can cause that bastard to be like a dog without a home, no place will accept him...”

“You are more confident than that Xuan Shu fellow!”

Hanfang shook his head and didn’t comment.

For this matter to be so easily solved, it made him relaxed. At the depths of his eyes, a weird glow flashed.

As expected his junior brother Wei Xu was good at reading people. It seems like he was certain that this junior brother Zong could cleanly deal with the matter.

“If it is like what you said, that there is an 80% chance then that would naturally be the best. If this Yan City Pass matter ends, your heart demon would be removed and you can focus on facing the calamity. You have been stuck at this spiritual grandmaster peak for way too long..”

“Disciple has been useless!”

The white-haired middle-aged man laughed awkwardly, his face filled with shame, “Fang Wen still feels responsible for this matter. To be able to see the enemy get held accounted for and revenge will be taken for our few senior brothers, I will be slightly at ease. Even if I have a heart knot I will be able to put it down.”

He said seriously, “Although I have been in seclusion these few years, I know the matter of Yan City Pass like the back of my hand. As long as the Han King steps aside and does nothing then 80% is a conservative estimate. Who knows how Zong Shou would plan for Helian iron Mountain? However looking at his expression, I think that this kid also has confidence. Let’s just let him take charge. Today, the only thing that I don’t understand is that why does our sect allow such a top talent to be independent on the outside? That small Gantian Mountain, that small land in Donglin Cloud Continent can just be given up on. With this kid in charge of our sect, our common people path will be able to be prosperous once more!”

“How would I know? However, this matter was decided by the revered one. He said that Gantian Mountain was similarly as important for our common people path. Moreover looking at how Zong Shou has been acting these few days, it is obvious that he is unwilling...”

That Hanfang laughed awkwardly. His voice filled with regret.

“The sect leaders of Seven Spirit Sect and Qingyin School are all heroines no weaker than males. Unfortunately, both of them are too careful. I am afraid it is tough to convince the 2 of them. To assassinate the Liao King is a huge risk. But since even you are saying that too then let me give him some help too!”

After finishing he stood up, waving his sleeves. Instantly 2 balls of red light flew out into the distance.

Once the red light flew afar, Hanfang turned his gaze back on that expressionless Zong Shou who seemed to be deep in thought.

His gaze was also filled with sympathy.

This kid was the most stunning talent he has seen in these thousands of years. Be it martial path talent. Just the ability to see the relationship between Tailing Sect and the Liao King and easily solve something so messy. It was enough for the sect to see him as a treasure.

Unfortunately, this kid’s heart wasn’t with the common people’s path.

It would also be tough to form the dharma. If he wasn’t willing to remake his foundations, then in these few years, he could only walk the martial path. However, this fellow was so stubborn, making one feel heart pained!

※※※※

At this moment Zong Shou had no idea that in the void 2 people were talking about him with regretful tones.

Which much difficulty, he sent Xuan Shu away. Then. Zong Shou started meditating.

His mission was huge. He not only had to form the rest of the 5 element true spiritual talismans, but he needed to contemplate deeply about the 2 extreme yin yang dharma. Moreover, he had to improve the one origin sword and world shocking spiritual art.

He wished he could split himself into 3 and be used as 3 people at once.

One of the reasons why he brought this carriage out was because he wanted a quiet environment so that he could comprehend and cultivate in peace.

There wasn’t much that happened in the night. Before the morning of the next day, the group of them set out once more.

However, this time, the common people path disciples were all no exception, keeping a distance away from the carriage. It was obvious that there was a huge gap between them. Even Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan were being ostracised. The latter could bear with it, whilst Zhao Yanran was furious, rushing to Zong Shou’s carriage, and having a comfortable rest within it.

Zong Shou didn’t care. He already had a fixed plan in his heart and wasn’t as nervous as that day. As such, he was able to calm himself down to cultivate.

On the 7th day, they finally made it near Yan City Pass. Xuan Shu chose a place for them to hide and settle down.

This place was not only 120 miles away from Yan City Pass, but it was a secret location of the common people path. It was hidden beneath a mountain where numerous large holes were dug up in and also had spiritual formations covering it up. There were even tens of spiritual veins within which could allow one to cultivate.

He knew that for this assassination to succeed, they had to at least wait for a month and a half later. After Zong Shou handled all matters over to Xuan Shu, he calmly went into secluded meditation.

Although he liked to enjoy and liked a more normal day, he knew that what he achieved in the last life was—after all, the last life. If he wanted to have higher achievements on the martial path to survive in this chaotic world, then every second and minute couldn’t be wasted.

He still had little to no progress on the two extreme yin and yang dharma . On the contrary, he had some small improvements in body training and on the true spiritual talisman side.

After breaking through to the Xuanwu ancestor realm, it was like the floodgates had opened within his body. All the fist techniques that he used had turned into the foundation breathing spirit fist and the great blazing sun fist. Along with the 6th set of energy leading technique, pretty much each bit of essence energy and dragon essence was used to the extreme.

In a short month, not only did the injuries from merging with the 6th pair of spiritual veins heal, but the skin all over his body gave off a layer of jade color.

Zong Shou had tried using a grade 5 spiritual weapon to cut down, it only left a pale white mark. When he went all out it was only a small bloody cut.

At that time not only were Zhao Yanran and Ruoshui startled, but even Zong Shou himself was also surprised.

He hadn’t learned any strong body training cultivation methods and external methods but his physical body had signs of the taoist’s jade muscles celestial bones, the buddhist’s unbreakable gold body.

The progress of forming true spiritual charms was much quicker. In this month, Zong Shou had worked on the terra word talisman and in just 30 short days he managed to form hundreds of charms.

Since he had reached the peak of the Return to Sun realm, his forming of true spiritual talismans was several times faster.

Zong Shou felt delighted. If this went on, a month later, he would be able to form the 10th true spiritual talisman in his soul. At that time he would have a little more confidence to assassinate that Yuan Jiuchen!

Only things in this world often never go as planned. Just as Zong Shou completed his meditation, a nightmare of news was spread over.
