186 Chapter 186 Bad feeling (1/2)
Zong Shou was enlightened, he naturally heard of such a method before. Many martial cultivators would choose such a method when they were breaking through to ascended ancestor realm.
However, to build a stone hall entirely out of Tiegang stone was expensive. No wonder it was called Tiegang Hall, what a direct name. Just buying these stone alone was a heavy price. The grade 4 mind stones used every year would be several hundred too.
Actually in the last life, when he broke through to the ascended realm, in reality, he had done a similar thing. However, at that time, he didn't need so much effort. He directly created a few characters in God Emperor and killed people and challenged them. That period was bloody and chaotic and killing was common. Although he didn't kill them his sword was proven in actual battle, earning actual fighting experience and sword techniques.
However to suppress true qi. Wouldn't a 9 emery's Ian earth chakra Xuanwu ancestor not be much stronger than him? Why did he suddenly have such a bad feeling?
This Zhu Junhou was a caring person. Apart from the Tiegang Hall matter, no matter what Zong Shou asked, he would say he didn't know or just avoid the question. He kept his secrets close to the chest. Zong Shou felt bored after a while and gave up on trying to get information from this person.
They used a full hour to get onto the peak of the mountain. Zong Shou looked out, only to see that this area was made into flat land, into a few hundred thousand square feet platform. At the 4 sides were many crossbow chariots. There were tens of feet wide crossbows, the bowstring was made up of beast tendons mixed with iron threads. A total of 400 of them protected Xuan Mountain City, making one's body feel numb.
In the center of this area was a giant stone hall, it was a hundred feet tall and a thousand feet long.
It was made up of red Tiegang stone. Just as Zong Shou got close, he could feel the energy in his body showing signs of being suppressed.
Once Zong Shou stepped down from the carriage, he saw that a bunch of people was waiting at the stone steps.
Not only was Xuanyuan Yiren there, but there was also a middle-aged noblewoman, a 40 odd-year-old man wearing a robe and carrying a mandarin duck blade. There was also a young, well-read looking teen standing on the steps, coldly looking down on him.
Apart from the last person, the 2 before he had seen them standing on the tall building. Especially this noblewoman who he had some rough impression. As for the other person, he should be the other Xuanwu ancestor of Xuan Mountain City-Tan Tao. Towards these people from Xuan Mountain City, he knew a little.
Zong Shou's face turned slightly serious, he adjusted his robe and walked in front of that woman, bowing deeply,” Zong Shou greets mother in law who hasn't met you in 10 years. Are you okay? Zong Shou doesn't have good luck, only meeting you once in 10 years. I remember in the past my father mentioned that your relationship with your husband was as strong as gold, I'm jealous. He hoped that Yiren and I would be as loving as you two...” Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
When Li Sina heard that her face changed, suddenly green, suddenly red. Her eyes were filled with shame and also anger.
This kid was simply too annoying! He specially raised the thing 10 years ago to stab at her for being an ungrateful person?
However, she could only bear with it, raising out her hand and acted like she was a friendly and virtuous person, ”Prince please rise! Your marriage with Yiren hasn't been officially set. I think you shouldn't call me mother in law so quickly.”
Before she said anything, a light scoff spread from the staircase, ”How shameless! We give you a little respect and you're ready to abuse it! Yiren is a direct disciple of my Pill Fountain Sect. How are you even good enough to get her? Zong Shou, you need to know your place and scram Out of Xuan Mountain City...”
Zong Shou was slightly surprised, looking at him and asking, ”Who is this person?” No matter how he looked he felt that it was similar to Long Batian.
Li Sina's face revealed a smile but she didn't reply, instead the one who spoke was Tan Tao, ”He is Xuanyuan Yiren's Senior Brother, the 6th direct disciple Fang Shu! He came to our Xuan Mountain City to be a guest. He is willing to stand up for justice, if the prince is free you can make friends with him...”
”Pill Fountain Sect? So it's an outsider.”
Zong Shou gave an ”oh” before nodding casually, ”How rude!”
Saying that he turned around and didn't care anymore. He didn't exchange messages with Xuanyuan Yiren through their gazes, waiting solemnly beneath the stone steps, appearing as calm as a mountain, giving off a righteous and magnanimous atmosphere.
Fang Shu wasn't happy with Zong Shou from the start, and now his eyes flowed coldly, killing intent apparent as he looked down at Zong Shou. Tan Tao also looked over with a cold and surprised expression.
Zong Shou was annoyed by this person, scolding out in his heart and started to be a little wary about him. Since they said that he stood up for justice, then he was the one who was the guy in the wrong. It was always the dog that didn't bark that was the scariest.
Waiting for a short moment, Zhu Junhou who went in to report had returned. Walking beside Zong Shou to show that he didn't dare to be ahead of him, bowing as he raised his hand to lead the way,” Prince, please! City lord Xuanyuan has been unwell and is unable to personally come out to welcome you, he is waiting in the hall...”
Zong Shou smiled and walked onto the stone staircase. Just as he walked in he felt that his energy was knocked below xiantian level. Following which he looked opposite, a white mustache man was sitting within that hall. His face was red, looking like he was young at about 20, not older than Yiren. He was the same as that Xuanyuan Tong in his memory from 10 years ago.
Zong Shou was looking at him whilst he was also judging him, his expression filled with sadness and also pity.
