Chapter 110: Chapter 110 Leaving Cloud Saint

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The morning two days later...

Chuxue brought out the eighteen Cloud Stepping Foals in the stables.

Zong Shou also used these few days of free time to fix and remodel the carriage. He added in many Grade Three wind element beast crystals, as well as a few spiritual formations. They made the carriage even faster and the environment within the carriage more comfortable.

Zong Shou’s personality was like that. If he had the items, he definitely didn’t mind making his life better.

Unfortunately, he was still unable to find any Windrider Foals. That day under the Blood Valley Demon Corpse Mountain they bumped into two...

Unfortunately, one was chopped in two by him, while the other he didn’t dare to ride. Such a thing that would easily reveal his identity was something he wouldn’t dare to touch easily.

That person had a total of ten Grade Seven Mythic Masters beside him, so the power standing behind him was definitely not weak, and heaven knew what their origins were.

He looked aimlessly at Chuxue clumsily dragging those Cloud Stepping Foals one by one in front of the carriage and tying the ropes onto them.

He slowly walked over. Before he reached her, he heard a silver bell-like questioning voice, “Where are you all going? Are you leaving Cloud Saint City?”

Zong Shou gave a tragic sigh, and without needing to turn around he knew that that was definitely Xuanyuan Yiren. Why early, not late, she had to coincidentally come back at such a time.

He acted like he didn’t hear her as he continued to walk towards the carriage. He heard a wind blow as a red shadow flashed by, Xuanyuan Yiren blocking the door of the carriage. action

Taking a look at Zong Shou, the questioning look in her eyes grew even thicker, “Why are you dressed like this? Why are you learning from those mechanical puppets? If other people saw this they would laugh at you for being an idiot. You haven’t replied to me; are you leaving Cloud Saint City?”

Zong Shou was wearing a huge robe, his body looking nearly twice as big. But his small face was still so thin and exquisite, making him look really weird.

His actions were also unusually tough, no different from how mechanical puppets walked. This was actually a characteristic of the Lightning Walking spirit bone, when he walked he did look really mechanical.

His body shook from left to right, and seeing that Xuanyuan Yiren had no intention of moving aside, Zong Shou could only stand there helplessly. His expression was really serious, “I am leaving and returning to my Gantian Mountain. Miss Xuanyuan, your future is limitless, so why do you want to follow me, who can’t even protect my dynasty? I have already prepared the marriage annulment letter, so miss please return early. Your parents have been really worried about you...”

Xuanyuan Yiren’s expression didn’t change, looking calmly at Zong Shou’s eyes. “Zong Shou, you actually said such words? How do you want other people to look at me? Have you ever heard that starving and dying is a small matter, losing chastity is a huge matter?”

Chuxue didn’t think that anything was wrong, but the following Li Yunniang frowned instantly. Her heart was filled with doubts... what did this suddenly have to do with chastity?

Zong Shou instantly felt guilty, coughing softly, deciding to change his method. “Since Miss Xuanyuan wants to marry me, then we have to do it openly and properly. Although we are engaged, we haven’t gotten the approval of our parents. Before we are officially married, how can the both of us travel together?”

He was thinking that since this girl’s brain had problems and was determined to protect loyalty and righteousness, then if he used religion and ritual to counter her it would definitely work.

As expected, Xuanyuan Yiren hesitated slightly before decisively shaking her head, “These are all small things. You are going on a dangerous journey and as your fiancee how can I sit still and not do anything? Actually, in my eyes it is better if you don’t go back. Zong Shou, why don’t we go out to see together? You can give up that Monster King position, and I can also not bother about the Pill Fountain Sect..”

Zong Shou’s mouth was agape and his eyes opened wide. How did this end up being a conversation about eloping? Li Yunniang’s expression changed greatly, she blinked her eyes anxiously.

However it was like she didn’t see it, her tone certain. “Anyways, no matter where you go, I will follow you until you are truly safe and your life isn’t in danger!”

Zong Shou smiled bitterly. “I, Zong Shou, am of indomitable spirit, how would I need a girl to protect me? Yesterday in the back garden you should have sensed something. In your eyes, do you think there is anyone under the Martial Ancestor Realm that are my opponents?”

When Li Yunniang heard that, she burst out laughing, nearly cursing out.

Xuanyuan Yiren’s face was filled with confusion, “What should I sense? You are referring to Uncle Yin? His blade rhythm has formed and is close to reaching the strength stage, as expected from someone from a famous sect. But to protect you he still needs some time!”

Zong Shou couldn’t help but facepalm, thinking back to Xuanyuan Yiren at that moment. She was probably startled and breathing erratically, so she most likely didn’t sense what was going on outside.

Slightly shaking his head, Zong Shou’s mind moved and the Black Wave Sword hiding within his sleeves began to move. Compared to words, nothing was more convincing than a spiritual sword flying through the air.

He suddenly thought about something, and that Black Wave Sword suddenly stopped within his sleeves.

With this girl’s stubborn personality, even if he revealed his strength, would that be of any use? Instead he might end up making a fool of himself!

Before he was able to think of a solution, she spoke up once more, “Even if there is a day when you have the ability to protect yourself, how can this marriage be easily ended? If you don’t want me, I can only not marry in my entire life to keep my chastity! Oh, right, where is Uncle Yin?”

Zong Shou was totally at a loss, impatiently gesturing around him, “What Uncle Yin? He saw me living such a bad life, so he left alone yesterday!”

Xuanyuan Yiren was startled, and her brow furrowed, “I don’t believe you! Uncle Yin is so loyal, why would he betray you? You are lying!”

Just as she wanted to follow up, only to see Zong Shou had gotten onto the carriage, smiling with nefarious intentions, “Miss Xuanyuan wants to travel in the same carriage as me? Zong Shou doesn’t mind, but is it convenient for you?”

Looking at her up and down, it was like the naked body he saw yesterday was still right in front of him.

Remembering that before she reaches the small success stage of the Mysterious Moon Wood Brilliance Method, she had to cultivate it once every three days, and she had to do so naked.

If she had fireproof shirts then it would be okay, but if she didn’t, then she could only give him a feast for his eyes like yesterday.

Her face instantly flushed red, scoffing as she turned around furiously. “Sister Yunniang, go find the Lingyun Sect people and borrow a carriage!”

Li Yunniang was so shocked her body jumped, taking her a long moment to regain her senses. She could only feel that her tone was filled with a lot of shame.

Zong Shou heaved a sigh of relief. If he let this girl get onto the carriage with him, then he would not be able to do anything this whole journey.

——

When they entered the city it was clumped up and cluttered, but when they were leaving it felt cold and empty. As they passed the city gate, they coincidentally saw Zong Ling riding a Windrider Foal at the city gate, looking over coldly.

His eyes taunted them, like he was saying, “Did you expect this to happen thirteen days ago? When you chased me away at the city gate did you expect that the one being chased out of the city would be you? What about those words a few days ago?”

In the next moment, Zong Ling ordered his horse to gallop over.

Zong Shou decisively opened the window, shouting for them to speed up. Chuxue immediately waved the horse whip, causing the eighteen Cloud Stepping Foals to pick up speed, their speed actually no less than Zong Ling’s Windrider Foal. The latter seemed to have no intentions to chase them, as in a short moment he was left far behind.

Zong Shou was too lazy to haggle with this person, but in his heart he felt really frustrated.

He wanted a bunch of assassins to appear so he could kill all of them with the sword in his hand and stun all of these people.

“Seems like I am unable to be truly calm and composed and unaffected by everything. Although I think my heart is as calm as water, with just a slight wind it will still have slight ripples. My heart still has the desire to win and to chase for glory.”

Collecting his emotions, Zong Shou slowly started to get rid of his distractions as he sat on the soft mattress and started meditating.

If one looked carefully, one would notice that all his muscles were trembling at a minute rate.

It was the Internal Energy Leading Technique. Ever since he absorbed the Lightning Phoenix egg, every moment he would use this technique to solidify the Xiantian essence energy within his body, making it easier for him to merge it into his body.

Zong Shou’s mind was in a totally different place, starting to flow through the river of his memory.

In his last life he had fit hundreds of thousands of books, half of the library, into his head. Who knew how many secret techniques he had read, among which were some peak techniques passed down by the top sects ten thousand years ago.

It was really difficult to find an energy cultivating method that was suitable for his Dual Meridian Body, but something like his spiral meridians was unprecedented. Truly finding one suitable for his half-monster body was even more impossible!

“If I want to self-create one, then let’s reference this Indefinite Spirit Emperor Art. As for the Lightning Phoenix, my memory has a copy of the Nine Destruction Unrestrained Lightning Technique. Although it isn’t as good as the secret technique of the Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect, it is enough. What is difficult is my human bloodline! I don’t know its characteristics, so this energy cultivation method must be inclusive. That’s right! How did I forget about the Heaven Energy Swallowing Conversion Technique, the nature of everything in the world comes from spiritual energy. With this as the base, it might work. Oh? There are people in front...”

——

Zong Shou was originally deep in thought, the idea before was like a light at the end of the tunnel, making him happy.

However in just a short while, his brows revealed wariness instead.

They have travelled fifteen miles out of Cloud Saint City, and people were occasionally travelling on the roads. However, there was no one he paid attention to; he wasn’t even bothered about Xiantian masters.

Saying there are people in front meant that ahead of them were people that could threaten his safety.

Focusing, the two auras were slightly familiar and had no killing intent.

“So it is them...”

Zong Shou shook his head, walking to the front of the carriage, ordering Chuxue to stop. He saw several people quietly waiting on the side of the road.

Zong Shou’s eyes directly looked towards that sixty-year old man. “Are you Lord Xu Zhengyuan?”

Within Donglin Cloud Continent, Gantian Mountain was similar to a huge country, so Zong Shou used his identity as Prince to directly call out his name.
