Chapter 154: Chapter 154 As God Intended

“But that was at a time when you were in danger. Today, since you are already at eight meridians of the Bodily Chakra level and your sword techniques are really good, naturally you should walk the proper path. How could we do that...”

As she said that, she felt that things weren’t appropriate. Zong Shou’s eyes were wide, smacking the table in admiration, “What ‘everything has been done’? You actually have such a method, how intelligent. Tsk tsk, this idea is not bad!”

Looking at the weird gazes of Hu Zhongyuan and Li Yunniang at the side, she felt like she had no face to look at people. Just as she was about to return back to the carriage, she suddenly heard Zong Shou laugh, “Five months from now, before we return back to Gantian Mountain, I will make a trip to Xuan Mountain City to meet my father-in-law...’

Xuanyuan Yiren turned around in shock. She saw that although Zong Shou was still smiling, he was really serious. The gaze he had was really sincere and passionate, warming her heart, “I will follow what you said and marry you through the proper channels!”

Xuanyuan Yiren only felt that her heart was tapped slightly, but it was suddenly very soft, her entire chest filled with joy. It was not only bliss, but surprise.

She couldn’t help but squint and take a closer look at Zong Shou. In her heart, she was wondering about exactly what kind of person her future husband was.

Was he kind? Lazy? Calm and composed? Intelligent? Vicious? Decisive?

She also felt that that wasn’t it, all sorts of feelings were mixed up together, unable to differentiate the right one. That’s right, he was also perverted...

Her mother did say that to totally see through a person was a really difficult matter. She only needed to know that her future husband was responsible and she didn’t hate him, and that was enough.

The only thing she could be sure about was that Zong Shou’s sword techniques were at the absolute pinnacle and he was really talented, unparalleled in the world. Very few people were able to compete with him.

Her parents were always worried that he couldn’t cultivate and wasn’t able to help give her a protected and comfortable life. If they knew about what happened today, wouldn’t they be so amazed that their eyeballs would drop out?

When she first met him, she thought the same thing, thinking that this person was trash and a coward. Only now did she find out that she was totally wrong.

To be able to cut off a portion of Hu Qianqiu’s sleeve at eight meridians of the Bodily Chakra level, there was no one else in the world who could achieve that!

Compared to him, all the experts that she knew were much too ordinary...

She subconsciously thought back to the wee hours of the morning to Zong Shou’s celestial image and that pinnacle sword.

Her eyes couldn’t help but become slightly dazzled. In an instant she came back to her senses, and she couldn’t help but feel really ashamed and wanted to find a place to hide herself. She lowered her head and gave a mosquito-like soft acknowledgement before running back into her carriage without any hesitation... while wondering why was she behaving like a love-struck fool today...

—

Zong Shou laughed out loud, feeling that this clown was sometimes really cute.

He also jumped off the carriage and headed towards Zong Yuan. The energy within his body was already adjusted, however his stamina hadn’t been fully recovered. He could only activate the Lightning Travelling Spirit Bone, his posture really stiff as he walked over with a mechanical sound.

Zong Yuan’s brows instantly popped. He had heard the entire conversation between Zong Shou and Hu Qianqi. He wasn’t surprised that he managed to keep his life, but instead felt cold and a little wary. He was also totally on guard as he stared right at Zong Shou.

“What do you want to do? My life is useless. If you want to kill me, just kill me, I won’t frown at all! But if you want me to work for you, don’t think about it! I, Zong Yuan, am righteous and will never betray my master...”

Zong Shou was lazy to speak with him. He didn’t expect this fellow to listen to his orders so easily. He was thinking to himself, -What I want isn’t your heart, but your body, who cares what you’re thinking about...-

Taking a close look at Zong Yuan, a look of joy appeared in Zong Shou’s eyes. He wasn’t happy with just looking, he started to touch him all over, feeling his bones and muscles, as well as the meridians within.

Zong Yuan felt an evil chill and bad thoughts rose within his head. Was his luck so bad for him to meet a pervert?

Zong Shou touched him for a moment, even more satisfied. He then smiled and instructed Hu Zhongyuan, who was at the side, “Find some rattan and tie him up naked. Then find a place with a wide area to hang him!”

Hu Zhongyuan’s green and bruised face already looked weird, and now he felt a shiver down his spine. Looking at Zong Shou with a weird expression, he thought that this Prince had such a weird preference and was totally different, and was the type that liked extremes. Actually this Zong Yuan had a good body, but his future wife was beside him, so shouldn’t he be less open?

Only when Zong Shou started frowning and showed impatience and stared over did he hesitantly run off to search for ropes. Every step he took he would turn around once, his eyes filled with pity.

Zong Yuan’s face couldn’t help but turn green, his lips turning purple as he scolded, “Zong Shou, do you know about how cultivators can be killed, but not humiliated? I, Zong Yuan, am a man, and I would rather die than be humiliated like this to do that kind of stuff with you! Why don’t you kill me!”

Making up his mind, Zong Yuan didn’t hesitate to bite his tongue. However before he was able to, Zong Shou grabbed his chin and pulled up, dislocating it. Zong Yuan tried to use the true qi in his body to break his meridians and end his life. Unfortunately, Zong Shou’s meridian-locking method was really weird, and even when his face flushed red with all the force he was using it was useless.

Zong Shou didn’t understand what he was doing. Was this necessary? He just needed to take off his clothes, why did he make it like it was a life or death matter? He wasn’t a woman that when one sees naked, he can’t get married.

Hu Zhongyuan’s actions were really quick, bringing a green bundle of rattan back and also many finger-thick black vines. Even if Grade Five beasts were wrapped up by it they couldn’t break away.

His actions were quick and neat as he cleanly stripped Zong Yuan, only leaving his underwear. He found a place further away from the carriage to hang up Zong Yuan, who was screaming like a pig being slaughtered, but whose voice was muffled and couldn’t be heard clearly.

He sighed heavily and patted the shoulders of Zong Yuan before shaking his head as he left.

Seeing that Chuxue didn’t move away and was instead restlessly looking on from the side, he realized that he had been misunderstood. Zong Shou took out hundreds of beast crystals and spirit stones, drawing talismans on the ground. He also took out some blood ink and drew a really devilish rune on Zong Yuan’s body.

Although Hu Zhongyuan didn’t cultivate spiritual techniques, he was still the future race leader of the Iron Tiger race and had seen a lot.

The talismans that Zong Shou was drawing were filled with the will of god and far stronger than those of other spirit masters that he had seen before.

The formation drawn out was also really well planned, and connected to the earth veins here. When it was drawn, the spiritual energy in the area would instantly increase by several times. Still, for some reason it had a weird feeling, like it wasn’t from the proper path...

Just as he was confused about what was going on, Zong Shou casually made a hand sign, all the beast crystals and spirit stones on the ground started to shine brightly. Numerous spiritual energies surged out and gathered over, like a thin layer wrapping around this area. The spiritual energy from the spirit stones followed the spirit patterns and flowed along them, climbing onto Zong Yuan’s body. Even with him twisting and turning his body, he was unable to break free.

The energy around here became more and more evil and sinister. Within ten miles, numerous Yin energy essences were being forcibly pulled over, thread by thread.

Hu Zhongyuan was oblivious to all this, watching Zong Shou’s hands, which were still set in the hand sign, not blinking. Although he was controlling the oceanic amount of spiritual energy, he did so casually and easily. He continuously changed the hand signs, controlling the pale white spiritual energy from a distance, forming a unique talisman between the brows of Zong Yuan, runes successively entering his muscles one after another.

He didn’t understand all this, but it was like a storm within his heart, raging and surging. After a long while he took in a deep breath, “Xue’er, the Prince trains in spiritual techniques? What Realm has he reached today?”

“That’s right! He does train in spiritual techniques!” Chuxue was worried that she would be ‘tortured’ by Zong Shou, not daring to move away her eyes and not be distracted. She casually replied, “Young Master reached the Out of Body Realm a month ago!”

Hu Zhongyuan’s face couldn’t help but flush red once more. The muscles in his body were so tightly clenched that he prevented himself from roaring out, suppressing his excited and shocked emotions.

What he wanted to do most now was to call his father back to personally witness this.

Eight meridians Bodily Chakra level, sword art One with the Spirit! He thought he had known about Zong Shou’s true skill.

Now he knew that Zong Shou didn’t go all out in his battle with Hu Qianqiu!

The Prince was going to become fourteen in a few days, an Out of Body Realm spirit master who wasn’t even fourteen...

What kind of monster was that? How could one live anymore?

In the past, he envied Zong Shi for being young and still being able to step into Xiantian. Compared to this Prince, he was a speck of dust that wasn’t worth mentioning.

His father said that Zong Shi couldn’t even be compared to scum; in his eyes those words were insulting scum.

Xuanyuan Yiren was also astonished, and rushed over. She was dumbfounded as she looked at the expressionless person who was controlling the spiritual energy without much difficulty.

It seemed like Zong Shou was actually also an Out of Body Realm spirit master. His use of talismans had actually reached such a level, combining it with the will of a god. He had obviously understood the true meaning of all the talismans, the Realm of a Grandmaster...
