Chapter 168 Why Can Su Wen Enter But Not Me?
Su Wen smiled as he looked at the group of people who mustered their courage to rush forward.
Activate Martial Dao Fragments? Blade God Mode? Fist Emperor Mode? No! Su Wen chose to burn his cultivation! “Great Solar River!”
The golden True Qi appeared once more!
There was no other reason. Given his current situation, his cultivation speed was simply rising too fast! After burning his cultivation level by a Grade, it would take only a few days for him to recover it.
In that case, the Great Solar River was the most suitable method!
He wanted to see if he could make the Sorcerer God’s Golden Gu absorb more of the golden True Qi as well. As expected, just as Su Wen activated his secret technique and the golden True Qi appeared, the Golden Gu became excited and charged toward the golden True Qi produced by the Great Solar River.
This time, Su Wen was burning away his cultivation in Earth Rank. Compared to last time, his momentum was even greater! The gold True Qi gushed out crazily, almost unable to be suppressed. Su Wen seemed to have become a Saiyan, emitting a dazzling beam of light…. Moreover, the golden True Qi brought with it an extremely high temperature. Those who approached felt the scorching heat almost instantly. Su Wen activated his auto attack mode! “Nine Waves Return to Origin!”
“Nine Waves Return to Origin!”
“Nine Waves Return to Origin!” The large amount of high-quality True Qi brought about by burning his cultivation turned Su Wen into a maniac! His attacks came rapidly, as though he had an Ultimate without cooldown. This superheated and explosive blade Qis seemed to have become the Lin Clan’s nightmare. The Saint Qi in Su Wen’s body rose rapidly once again. Lin Fusheng, who was fighting at the side, was stunned. How could this fellow be so strong? Wasn’t this against the rules?
Everyone was terrified, and many of them had already started to flee. Su Wen activated Stellar Transposition and chased after them madly! Almost all the people in the village who could fight were killed by Su Wen alone! On the other hand, Wu Lie was fully engrossed with fighting against Lin Fusheng. It was as if a long dragon was entrenched on his spear, and his imposing manner gradually gained the upper hand. When Su Wen came back after killing everyone, Wu Lie had already stabbed Lin Fusheng several times. Lin Fusheng’s body was bleeding profusely! “Don’t make a move, I’ll do it myself!” Wu Lie said through gritted teeth. Su Wen had no intention of making a move as well.
This time, even though he had also used the Great Sun River, his condition wasn’t that bad under the enhancement of the Saint Qi, but it wasn’t too good either. He quickly took the chance to recover his True Qi as well as some measure of combat strength.
After a fierce battle!
HPfft!”
Wu Lie pierced through Lin Fusheng’s chest and roared, “Why?! Why?! I’ve already given you the cultivation technique, so why are you doing this? She’s your daughter!” Lin Fusheng spat out a mouthful of blood and looked up at Wu Lie. He gritted his teeth and said, “So what if you give it to me? Can you guarantee that the person beside you won’t bring anyone back? He doesn’t trust us, but how can I trust him? Killing you guys is the best method!”
He smiled bitterly and said, “What a pity, I didn’t expect you guys to be so powerful.” “Then why did you kill Duo’er!”
Lin Fusheng roared, “Why would I f** king want to kill her. I just wanted to force you to come back!”
Wu Lie sneered and said, “It’s too late to say anything now! All of you deserve to die!” “Hehe, it doesn’t matter whether I killed Duo’er or not. In the eyes of you Descenders, we deserve to die! From the moment we were born, we had to fight for survival and risk our lives for a Demon Martial Bead…” Seeing that he was about to die, Lin Fusheng seemed to have sunk into his memories.” When I was young, I didn’t even get to eat a mouthful of meat. I was constantly worried and afraid of being attacked by the other races. I became stronger step by step, suppressing my cultivation and not ascending because I wanted to lead my clansmen to live a good life…” He raised his head and looked at Wu Lie as he roared, “What wrong have I done? How can I let go of an opportunity to allow my clan to rise
up!”
“In your eyes, we are just tools to increase our cultivation! You can slaughter us as we wish! Why can’t we kill you?” Puchi!
Unknowingly, Su Wen had walked over and stabbed his vitals.
Lin Fusheng’s remaining consciousness only heard one sentence. “Shout shout shout… all you know is to shout. Whoever said you were wrong?” Another large amount of Saint Qi entered his body, giving Su Wen a sense of satisfaction. He looked at Wu Lie, who was in a daze, and said, “It’s not that I’m trying to steal your kill, it’s just that you’re being too long-winded. I couldn’t hold it in.”
Wu Lie did not care for this. He simply walked over to Lin Duo’er side and suddenly wept. He howled and wept bitterly. He picked up Lin Duo’er’s corpse with extreme grief and muttered, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I shouldn’t have come back!”
Unfortunately, at this moment, all he was holding was only an ice-cold corpse. Su Wen walked to his side and gently patted his shoulder without saying anything. People were always like this, constantly encountering things, growing up, and suffering. Every new day brought with it a new type of trouble. Perhaps Wu Lie would have different thoughts the next time he met a girl.
Su Wen began to use his Demon Martial Bead to absorb the Saint Qi from the corpses. With his repeated skillings, the Saint Qi in the Demon Martial Bead was constantly increasing.
“Bury her… let her rest in peace.”
Su Wen consoled Wu Lie.
“No, I want to bring her back!” Su Wen widened his eyes and looked at Wu Lie in horror. Could this guy be… into necrophilia?!!
“I want to bury her in Great Zhou! This way, I can visit her anytime!” Wu Lie said through gritted teeth. Su Wen secretly heaved a sigh of relief before asking, “Did you like her?” “Yes!”
“You stopped liking my wife so soon? Jerk,” Su Wen joked. Wu Lie gritted his teeth and said, “Can you be more serious? I’m very serious! Very sad!” “Yes, yes, yes! Tell me slowly.” Su Wen tore off a freshly roasted strange cow leg and found a stone block from somewhere to sit on, comfortably settling himself down for the story.
Wu Lie recounted everything that had happened in the past few days. In the end, she said, “I always thought that I liked Yan Luoying, but after I met Duo’er, I gradually understood that maybe I had just cultivated a type of liking into a habit. I kept telling myself that I liked her and that I wanted to marry her. Slowly, I subconsciously stopped looking at other women. I thought that my heart only had her.” “But when I met Duo’er, I realized that I did not like Yan Luoying as much as I thought. At the very least, I could still be attracted to other girls. I also wanted to get close to Duo’er, but… but we can only stay here for half a year!” Wu Lie was extremely regretful at this moment! He muttered, “What can I do? I can only refuse! But I didn’t expect things to develop to this point! If I had known…”
Su Wen took a bite of the beef and slapped his thigh. “If you had known, you should have slept with her!” “Bullsh*t! I’m not as despicable as you think! If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have stayed here!”
Su Wen smiled and said, “It’s the same, it’s the same. If you don’t stay here, we’ll kill all of them when we arrive. There’s no difference!” Wu Lie kept Lin Duo’s corpse into his spirit artifact and looked at Su Wen before whispering, “You’ve changed. You weren’t so indifferent to life in the past.”
Su Wen was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said, “It’s not that it has changed. It’s just that our thoughts have changed. This place was originally created by the nine Saint, meant for us to kill. If we want to become stronger, we can only do our best to kill!” Wu Lie remained silent and asked softly, “How did you get involved with the Third Prince?” Su Wen also told him about his situation and smiled. “Anyway, we have already parted ways. However, since we have settled everything here, I still have to look for that guy to settle the score. He brought my men and ran away, he thought he did a good job!” “Chase after him now!” “Let’s go!” On the other side, the Third Prince was extremely pleased. Once Su Wen left, no one in the team would be able to share the power with him.
It was late and the team was preparing to rest. The camping equipment was readied. Everyone was starting campfires and cooking. His gaze swept past Ni Hongxiao from time to time, a trace of lust flashing in his eyes. Regardless of looks or figure, this woman was not bad… Furthermore, the Third Prince had also seen how Su Wen and her… had done some stuff that should never see the light of day. “Do your best. We’ll be able to reach the next oasis tomorrow. Without Su Wen, we’ll definitely be able to harvest more Saint Qi!” He said loudly as he surveyed the team.
However, no one in the team answered.
Seeing him walk away, two of the martial artists began to discuss in low voices. “Hehe… that’s easy for you to say. Without Su Wen’s Nine Waves Return to Origin, we will not be able to defeat the enemy quickly. If we were to fall into a stalemate, the casualties would greatly increase.” “That’s right. If it wasn’t for Su Wen’s three consecutive strikes of Nine Waves Return to Origin each time, he wouldn’t have been able to defeat those green-armored eccentrics the last time!”
“I f*cking wanted to stay with Su Wen just now.”
“Me too, but Su Wen didn’t say anything.” “Come to think of it, just how old is that Su Wen? He was actually able to completely comprehend an Earth Rank martial technique and master such a powerful move. It’s simply terrifying!”
“Hehe, that’s right. It’s even more powerful than the Third Prince’s ultimate technique. If Su Wen gets a Heaven Rank battle technique, I wonder how strong he will become!”
They were not the only ones with such thoughts. The Third Prince then came to Ni Hongxiao’s side and patted her shoulder, “Miss Ni, what are you doing?” Even though he was only exchanging pleasantries, he did not take his hand away. Ni Hongxiao tilted her head to look at the Third Prince’s hand. Her shoulders sank as she lightly dodged and asked, “Third Prince, is there anything?” The Third Prince smiled and said, “Nothing much… I just saw that my tent is broken, I wonder if I can go to Miss Ni’s tent for a night. After all, Miss Ni’s tent is the biggest one among us.” This was true. Ni Hongxiao’s tent was her temporary laboratory, thus it was naturally much larger than a normal person’s. Furthermore, the Third Prince had seen Su Wen enter the area more than once, staying there for the entire night. How would he know that Ni Hongxiao and Su Wen already had an agreement, so Su Wen often went to collect ‘benefits?
Ni Hongxiao sneered: “Third Prince, you can sleep wherever you want, but my tent is out of bounds.”
The Third Prince said unhappily, “Then why can Su Wen enter?”
Ni Hongxiao retorted, “Why can you enter just because Su Wen can?”
“If Su Wen can enter, why can’t I?”. “Because Young Master Su is generous!” Ni Hong smiled and said, “Why don’t you sponsor me with a few hundred thousand taels of silver first, and I’ll let you in?” The Third Prince was stunned. In terms of wealth, he was really no match for Su Wen. He gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll compensate you after we leave the mystic realm.” “Write a promissory note then!” Ni Hong laughed in disdain: “Are you trying to dupe a fool?”
Seeing that Ni Hongxiao was not keen on accepting, the Third Prince’s gaze turned sharp: “Don’t forget! I am the leader now!” In response, Ni Hongxiao looked at him before asking with a smile, “Then? Doesn’t your stomach hurt? It should be about time, right?”
Just as she spoke, the Third Prince felt a sharp pain in his stomach!
He could not endure it at all!
He clutched his stomach and fell to the ground, rolling madly around! Ni Hongxiao had a frosty expression: “Third Highness, this poison can’t kill, it just hurts a little! It will only hurt for six hours, but if you don’t take care of your claws properly next time, they might rot!” She squatted down and smiled. “Although I don’t think this body is anything special and I don’t mind showing it to others and touching it, I have to agree to it. If I don’t agree, even if God comes, he will have to pay the price!” The Third Prince fell to the ground, one hand clutching his stomach and the other pointing at Ni Hongxiao as he roared, “Kill her!” Unexpectedly, no one moved. If Su Wen was here, he would definitely mock the Third Prince for being too young and naive.
How could there be such blind devotion in this world?
To put it bluntly, the martial artists that entered were all Great Zhou geniuses! All of them had boundless prospects. The Third Prince was not even the emperor, how would they be willing to be his dog? Usually, for the sake of becoming stronger and for the sake of benefits, everyone would listen to your orders and fight. However, one could not really treat these people as servants. They were not willing to do everything. Putting everything else aside, if news of this matter were to spread, it would be embarrassing. If it were to reach the ears of the emperor, his impression would be greatly reduced.
Furthermore, Ni Hongxiao was a team doctor and often treated these people. Who would step forward? At this moment, Ni Hongxiao glanced at Wu Feng, saying, “Let’s go.” “Yes!”
Wu Feng knew that this woman’s strength, and he did not dare to tarry. The Third Prince struggled to get up. He wanted to circulate his True Qi to force Ni Hongxiao to stay, but he realized that he could not mobilize his Qi at all. Ni Hongxiao also noticed his movements and turned around, saying with a smile, “Your Third Highness, don’t waste your energy. Only those with a cultivation above 5th Grade Earth Rank can resist my poison. With your teeny cultivation, your True Qi will definitely be suppressed by the poison. Remember this next time, don’t casually touch other people’s shoulders!”
“Doctor Ni… where are you going?” At this moment, someone in the team asked. Because she often treated everyone’s injuries, most of the people in the team addressed her as such.
Ni Hongxiao glanced at the Third Prince on the ground and said, “Of course we’re going to look for Su Wen. Are we going to follow this guy instead?” “I’ll go with you!” “I’m leaving too!” At once, a few people stood out. With a few people taking the lead, the rest thought about it and prepared to follow! It was very simple. The guide, the doctor, and the strongest combatants had all left. It did not seem appropriate to continue to follow the Third Prince.
The Third Prince never expected that after Su Wen left, these people would also leave! One had to know that with the spread of the news, the local factions had put in a lot of effort to encircle these outsider cultivators. Under the circumstances where he was going solo, it was very easy for him to fall into the abyss!
Unfortunately, everyone really abandoned him and followed Ni Hongxiao back to the oasis.
In the Great Zhou Royal Palace, Emperor Zhou was still looking at his jade tablet. Every day, he was most concerned about these people. “Your Majesty, Yan Luoying requests an audience.” Huh? Emperor Zhou was stunned. “Let her in.” Not long after, Yan Luoying entered the hall and bowed. “Yan Luoying pays her respects to Your Majesty!” “What’s the matter?” Yan Luoying raised her head to look at Emperor Zhou and said, “I heard that the envoy of Qiang Tribe proposed to marry the Seventh Princess in exchange for the three cities. I thought that if Your Majesty wants the three cities, I would like to request for an army of 100,000, and come out of seclusion to head to the northwest and fight against Qiang people.” She looked at Emperor Zhou and said in a low voice, “Since ancient times, the Qiang Tribe has committed many crimes. Even if you marry the princess to these people and take the three cities, they will definitely come again in the future. If Your Majesty marries the princess to the Hu people, she will definitely be ridiculed by others. This subject is willing to help Your Majesty conquer cities and conquer lands, and expand your territory!” Emperor Zhou understood that Yan Luoying wanted to fight! His eyes narrowed slightly. Ever since she entered the capital, she had been very well behaved. From all her actions, she was deeply cared for her country.
Should he give her a chance?
After pondering for a moment, Emperor Zhou smiled and said, “I am very glad that Luoying has such thoughts. However, the war between the two countries cannot be casually brought up just like that. As for the matter of marriage, it is just nonsense. I am only concerned about the Crown Prince’s face, so I did not directly reject it. In less than three days, I will veto this matter.”
He still didn’t want Yan Luoying to lead the army. Now that the war in the southern border had just started, Emperor Zhou didn’t want to fight on multiple fronts.
After saying this, Emperor Zhou asked curiously, “Luoying, I want to ask, why did you ask to go to war?” Yan Luoying smiled and said, “Your Majesty, to be honest, my husband likes the Seventh Princess. My husband is currently in the mystic realm, but if he is outside, he will definitely stop this proposal. As his wife, I will do what he wants to do but can’t do. I have to guard his interests.”
Emperor Zhou was speechless. He asked in confusion, “Aren’t you afraid that he and Wanrou will get together?” Yan Luoying looked at Emperor Zhou and said with a smile, “Of course not. His Majesty is here, isn’t he? Besides, even if he succeeds, so what? There are already many women in the family. One more won’t be a problem.”
“You…”
Emperor Zhou didn’t know what else to say.
He could only coldly laugh. “Is my daughter the same as those women? If she marries Su Wen, she will take the position of first wife!” Yan Luoying smiled and said, “Your Majesty, ever since ancient times, generals with merits will always be awarded hereditary titles. My merits may not be weaker than my husband’s in the future, so my children can inherit them! What does it matter even if I’m not the first wife?!”
“Hahaha! I underestimated you! Such magnanimity is not something an ordinary person can match. You may leave!” Yan Luoying got up and left. Emperor Zhou sighed. “What a lucky kid.” He turned around and walked toward the rows of jade tokens. He said softly, “Don’t fail at the last step!” Very quickly, Emperor Zhou issued a decree, rejecting the Crown Prince’s proposal. This also made the Seventh Princess heave a sigh of relief.
Back in the mystic realm, there was one more person to be mentioned — Xu Longcheng. At this moment, Xu Longcheng was shrouded in black mist. His martial technique was simply too advantageous in this mystic realm.
With the killing intent surrounding him and the cultivation technique constantly raising the quality of his True Qi, his battle prowess would be maximized!
This fellow had also joined a group. However, not all of them were from the Great Zhou Dynasty. There were all sorts of people here. After all, there was no need to kill each other in this mystic realm. Cooperation was also a method. However, Xu Longcheng did not really want to cooperate with these people.
Looking at his teammates walking in front of him, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
He would kill these people sooner or later and seize their Saint Qi!
In the entire Holy Land, all the trial challengers were like this. In the face of benefits, they had completely thrown all their morals out of the window!
