Dirt and stone scattered, the broken pieces and juices of the sandworms also splattered all about. Ruoshui frowned, waving her sleeves and a weird power pushed all these items away.
The people nearby also let out a soft snort in unison that seemed to be regretful and pitiful.
Zong Shou knew that these people hated him and wanted him to be unlucky so he didn't care. He sighed in his heart. It wasn't easy for him to run in front of him to show off his strength but this Xuan Shu ruined it.
Only to see the red sword retract and reveal the person within. As expected, it was Xuan Shu.
However, this time he didn't walk away. Instead, he directly sat down beside the bonfire in front of Zong Shou.
"Xuan Shu has 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 out the sound. How did Xuan Shu hear it?
His expression calmed down. In this world there were treasures like the sound listening conch, so it wasn't surprising for there to be other methods. He smiled and asked, "Then commander Xuan Shu, do you think this method has a chance of success?"
"This is a good plan. After the details are taken care of, there is a 70% chance of success."
When Xuan Shu heard that his eyes burned as he looked at Zong Shou, "Xuan Shu finally knows why the sect wants the first seat to be in charge of this matter. Xuan Shu doesn't have a good eye, first seat please forgive me … "
Zong Shou was a little stunned. 80% chance? So high? He thought that it was only 20%.
Following which Xuan Shu's bright gaze made his head feel numb. Thinking to himself, was this Xuan Shu the so-called glass in the future? Why did he keep staring at people like that?
Within the void, at the place between the cloud world and the space barrier, at this moment there was also a person who was looking at Zong Shou with a burning gaze, muttering non-stop.
"So that is the case, so that is the case! It is actually so simple. 20 years ago if I could think clearly, how would I have fallen into the trap of that Tailing Sect and caused half of my senior brothers to fall in that Yan City Pass? "
He threw a punch to the side, causing the void to tremble. This middle-aged man in his thirties with a head full of white hair dressed in a scholarly robe had a confused look in his eyes, almost losing focus. He was full of self-blame. "Why didn't I think of it back then? If one thought carefully about the relationship between Tailing Sect and Liao King, there would be numerous clues. Mount Xi, hehe! Mount Xi, how could I forget about that fellow? Not bad, what a good Zong Shou, what a good Gantian Mountain Monster King. Who knew that this kid would be so smart. It was really not bad. I, Cang Shengdao's seventh generation disciples and below, compared to him, aren't worth mentioning … "
Opposite this person sat an old man with a withered face and a little girl who looked like she was carved out of jade.
If Zong Shou was here, this old man would definitely be his senior brother Hanfang and that little girl would be Shi Ruolan.
The little girl opened her mouth, wanting to say that her ruler master was originally really amazing. However, in the end, she didn't dare to say it out loud.
Hanfang's current expression was really complicated. "Then in your eyes, how much confidence do we have this time?"
"80%!"
The white bearded middle-aged man raised his head, his face filled with confidence. "Unfortunately this time I, Cang Shengdao, didn't have any hopes of succeeding. The reliable people I sent were too few. No one can go up against that Ji Lingzi. If not, we would have a 100% chance of taking that Yuan Jiuchen's life. Even if we don't succeed this time, we can cause that bastard to become a homeless dog with nowhere to go … "
"You are more confident than that Xuan Shu fellow!"
Hanfang shook his head and didn't comment. Thinking to himself that no one could go up against Ji Lingzi? That might not be the case. With those 7 Natural Variants, normal grade-8 warriors would probably avoid them easily.
For this matter to be solved so easily, it made him heave a sigh of relief. In the depths of his eyes, a weird glow shone.
His junior brother Wei Xu was really good at judging people. He saw that this junior brother Zong could solve this matter cleanly.
"If it is really as you said, to have 80% confidence, that would be the best. If this Yan City Pass matter ends, you can get rid of your heart demons and focus on going through the tribulation. Wen 'er, you have been stuck at the peak of the spirit martial realm for too long … "
"Disciple is useless!"
The white haired middle-aged man laughed bitterly, his face filled with shame. "I still feel guilty about this matter. Today, to be able to see this enemy die and take revenge for my senior and junior brothers. I can finally be at ease. Even if there is a knot in my heart, I should be able to put it down. "
He said seriously, "Although I have been in secluded meditation these few years, I still know the Yan City Pass situation like the back of my hand. As long as the Han king doesn't do anything, then 80% confidence is a conservative estimate. I just don't know how this Zong Shou will deal with Helian Iron Mountain. However, looking at his expression, I think that this kid also has some confidence. Let's just wait and see what he does. Today, I only have one thing that I don't understand. Why would the sect allow such a talent to be independent outside? That small Gantian Mountain, a small piece of land in Dongling Cloud Continent, we don't need it. A hundred years later, if we can have this kid in charge of the sect, our Cang Shengdao will prosper once more! "
"How would I not know? However, this matter was decided by the revered one. He said that Gantian Mountain City is also extremely important to our Cang Shengdao. Looking at how that Zong Shou has been doing these few days, he is obviously unwilling … "
Hanfang let out a bitter laugh, his voice filled with endless regret.
"The sect leaders of Seven Spirit Sect and Qingyin School are all women no weaker than men. Unfortunately, their personalities are too careful. I am afraid those 2 girls won't be moved with just a few words. To assassinate the Liao King, one has to take a huge risk. However, even you, Fangwen, said so. I'll lend him another helping hand! "
After he finished, he stood up and waved his sleeves. Instantly 2 red shadows flew out and flew into the distance.
When those red shadows flew far away, Hanfang shook his head and focused on Zong Shou who was really calm like he was in deep thought.
His eyes were also filled with regret.
This kid was the most talented person he had seen in the past thousand years. Not to mention his martial path talent, just his ability to see through the connection between Tailing Sect and the Liao King, easily solving a messy matter. His intelligence was enough for the sect to treat him like a treasure.
Unfortunately, his heart wasn't with Cang Shengdao.
It was also tough to form the dharma. If he wasn't willing to rebuild his foundations, then in these few years he could only walk the martial path. However, he was so stubborn, making one's heart hurt!
※ ※ ※
At this moment, Zong Shou didn't know that in the void, there were 2 people who were discussing about him with regretful tones.
With much difficulty, he sent that Xuan Shu away. Then, Zong Shou started to meditate once more.
His mission today was really heavy. Not only did he need to form the other 5 element true spiritual talismans. He also needed to think about the 2 extreme yin and yang dharma. He also needed to improve the one origin sword and world shocking spiritual art that gathered the 100 families.
How he wished he could split himself into two and use him as three people.
One of the reasons why he brought this cloud crossing carriage out was because he wanted a quiet environment to comprehend and cultivate peacefully.
The night was uneventful and before the morning of the second day, they set off once more.
However, this time those Cang Shengdao elite disciples all stayed far away from the carriage and weren't willing to get close. It was obvious that the gap between them was really deep. Even Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan were ostracized. The latter could still bear with it but Zhao Yanran was furious and ran over to Zong Shou's carriage and stayed comfortably within.
Zong Shou also didn't care. He had a plan in his heart and wasn't as nervous as yesterday. He was able to calm down and cultivate.
On the 7th day, they finally arrived near Yan City Pass. Xuan Shu chose a place to hide.
This place was not only 120 miles away from the pass. It was a secret base that Cang Shengdao prepared. It was hidden under a huge mountain, numerous holes were dug out and there were spiritual formations covering it. There were even tens of spiritual veins gathered within that could be used for people to cultivate.
He knew that for this assassination to succeed, it would take at least a month and a half. After Zong Shou passed everything to Xuan Shu, he started his secluded meditation with a clear conscience.
Although he liked to enjoy life, he liked a more peaceful life. However, he knew about his achievements in the last life. After all, they were all from the last life. If he wanted to improve on the martial path. If he wanted to survive in this chaotic world, he had to have higher achievements. Then he couldn't waste a single minute, a single moment of time.
His recent progress on the 2 extreme yin and yang dharma was still very little. However, he had some small achievements in body training and true spiritual talismans.
After breaking through to the Xuanwu ancestor realm, it was like a gate had been opened in his body. The fist technique he used today had changed to the spiritual breathing fist and great blazing sun fist. Along with the 6th set of energy leading techniques, he used pretty much every bit of life energy and dragon essence to the extreme.
In a short month, not only did his injuries from merging with the 6th pair of spiritual veins heal, but his skin also gave out a jade colored glow.
Zong Shou tried to use a grade 5 spiritual weapon to cut it, but it only left a layer of white marks. Even if he went all out, it was just a blood mark.
At that time, not only were Zhao Yanran, Ruoshui and the others startled, but even Zong Shou himself was shocked.
He didn't learn any external cultivation methods, but his physical body had the Taoist's muscles and celestial bones, the Buddhist's unbreakable golden body.
The progress of the true spiritual talisman was even faster. During this month, Zong Shou started from the earth word true spiritual talisman. In a short 30 days, he formed hundreds of true spiritual talismans.
Since he reached the peak of the Return to Sun realm, who knows if it was because he had grasped the laws of heaven and earth to a certain level, but the formation of true spiritual talismans was several times faster.
Zong Shou was delighted in his heart. If this continued, a month later, he would be able to form the 10th true spiritual talisman in his soul. At that time, his chances of assassinating Yuan Jiuchen would be much higher!
However, things in the world couldn't go as one wished. This day, just as Zong Shou finished meditating, another bad news spread over. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
