156 Chapter 156 Conning and Extorting (1/2)
Speaking about that sword technique, Yan Fan's eyes revealed fear. How could there be such an evil sword technique existing in the Cloud World? How did Zong Shou learn it?
When that person in white danced with the sword, it was like the death god descending on the Earth. When the sword was pulled out, others would die.
In terms of the sword path, naturally it was that celestial-like sword that Zong Shou used before that was the most astonishing.
But in terms of killings and life and death battles, that River Styx Death Sword was the top choice!
He closed his eyes suddenly, his tone returning to calm and composed, ”Using the death energy of Heaven and Earth to harm the enemy. Although it is slightly evil, it contains the path of the heavens and doesn't fall into the devil's techniques. As long as he doesn't use it often, nothing bad would happen from it!”
The lips of Shui Lingbo twitched upwards in disdain. Yan Fan couldn't help but laugh and knew that nothing would happen if they continued to argue with one another. He shook his head, ”I'm liking this kid more and more! I can't bear to give up on him. But with both of us not wanting to budge, it isn't a solution...”
Shui Lingbo laughed coldly, ”What do you want? Within these twenty-odd days, we have gambled ten rounds! Three sword battles, two talisman drawings, four chess battles, and we still are unable to find a victor! This time what do you want to bet? If you say something about drawing or books, I'm not that dumb. If I suggest going all out in a battle you probably won't agree!”
Yan Fan was stunned to silence. This matter was indeed tough to settle. It wasn't that he couldn't win, just that during chess he had to let her have three pieces, in terms of sword sparring and talisman drawing there were many restrictions...
Lei Dong felt like crying, but no tears came out. For this matter, he had been trapped for thirty-odd days here, unable to break free, who knew when he could...
Lei Dong scoffed, ”Why don't both of you make concessions; why don't the two sects share, one person, two teachers?”
When he said that, Yan Fan and Shui Lingbo's killing intent boiled as they looked over coldly. The former scoffed heavily, ”Bullshit! If two sects share him, who is the main and who is the sub? If he learned those extreme evil sayings of the Common People Path, how will I explain to the ancestors of Wujue Villa? If this son falls into the devil path, I would rather take his life by my own hands.”
Shui Lingbo also scoffed, ”I'm more afraid he is corrupted by your thoughts and his brain becomes spoiled. If he joins Wujue Villa, I would help my Common People Path eliminate a huge enemy!”
Lei Dong couldn't help, but roll his eyes, looking into the sky. He had totally give up hope on these two people.
He looked at the side, only to see Zhao Yanran casually playing around with a saber and sword. Her mind was focused on other things, and she seemed really excited.
If one looked carefully, one would realize that the trajectory of the sword and saber were similar to those of Zong Shou and Hu Qianqiu, it only lacked a bit of intent. It was obvious that this crazy woman had learned a lot from that battle.
This woman really knew how to enjoy herself. Sadly, his Miss Zhenru would probably feel really lonely, not seeing him for so many days...

On the roof of the carriage, Zong Shou sighed as he looked out at Xuanyuan Yiren's carriage leaving in the distance.
He had a sense of emptiness, like something was leaving from beside his body.
Just like that, only four people were left beside him. Zong Shou's eyes turned dark. They way those three Xuan Mountain Xiantian Masters looked at him made him feel really uncomfortable.
He didn't care about people looking down on him, but that expression was obviously anger and disgust.
Chuxue was also filled with reluctance, ”How unfortunate! Why did her Mother fall sick so suddenly? Doesn't that mean we will only see her after a few months? May the heavens bless her such that nothing happens!”
Zong Shou rolled his eyes. This girl was so pure that she thought that the Xuan Mountain City Lord's wife was really sick.
However, he didn't wish to comment on this matter. There was no need to always think the worst of others, maybe she really was sick?
Just as he shook his head, he heard Chuxue turn around and ask seriously, ”Young Master, Xue'er is thinking about her now. Why not go to Xuan Mountain City and marry her back?”
Zong Shou was speechless, knocking onto her head. ”I think you don't miss her, but that medicine candy she gave you!”
Chuxue was astonished, and a little panicky, her eyes turning red. ”Young Master, we don't have to return to Gantian Mountain. A few days ago didn't you say that you would return to ascend the throne...”
”Why should I return? To get played by people?” Zong Shou smiled coldly, the glow in his eyes flickering, not noticing that his focus was successfully drawn away by Chuxue.
With Hu Qianqiu's help, Gantian Mountain was two-thirds under his control. If he turned back, it was okay if he was willing to be a puppet. But the moment he showed intentions to take control, the reactions of Zong Shi and Zong Yang would be unpredictable.
