Chapter 982 - Just Like That?
Just as Zong Shou was thinking, the door above the ship finally opened.
A thin person stepped out from within. It was a teen around 20 years of age, his face was like jade like he had just come of age.
His eyes were first filled with doubt as he looked around. Then, they became solemn. He first locked his eyes onto Aokun and Aoyi before turning and looking at Zong Shou. Especially Lu Wubing who was behind him.
At this moment, Liu Muchen who was standing on the giant ship had knelt down and kowtowed.
“Muchen is useless, humiliating the country and master, causing the dynasty to be in despair. I had no choice but to ask Ancestor Li to help me escape this difficult situation!”
The moment he said this, everyone present knew who he was.
There weren’t many known End Realm Cultivators in this region.
This person’s name had also shone for a long time.
Even Zong Shou who was ignorant and didn’t have much knowledge about outer region powers had heard of him before.
It was said that his real name was Li Wuque and had the title of No Defeat in 3,000.
Before he formed his Dao, he went through 3,000 battles and had never lost. A pair of iron fists cleared out many worlds.
He only took 2,000 years to step into End Realm.
In comparison, his two Masters were a little useless.
The moment such a thought rose up, his head hurt. Dragon Shadow’s voice spread over.
“Slandering your Master, you deserve to be beaten! Such a dumb kid, how can he compare to me? His talent is too high and his progress was too fast, his cultivation method has problems and he doesn’t notice. The Dao he chose was also problematic. Intermediate End Realm would be his maximum and after he finished his tribulation, he didn’t improve even in 2,000 years. How can he compare to my stored up potential? Even your Master Xuanshuang who formed her body is much stronger. Wei Xu and Kunming too!”
The fact that Lin Xuanshuang’s body formed could be hidden from others but not from him. He had been paying attention to Zong Shou.
Zong Shou was speechless. He forgot that at this moment Dragon Shadow was mentally connected to him.
However, for some reason when he heard those words, he felt that his Master was a little salty…
The Dragon Shadow gave out a cold scoff and stopped worrying about what Zong Shou was thinking about.
He couldn’t argue about such things. Who is strong and who is weak would only be known after they fought.
He muttered to Zong Shou, “No wonder! I was wondering who was behind Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty. So it was him. No wonder…”
Looking at how Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty rose up unobstructed and had no resistance or strong enemies at all, it was obvious that the other End Realm Experts didn’t want to offend him and even wanted to recruit him.
Li Wuque listened quietly to what he said and didn’t make a sound.
Only when he finished, he asked Zong Shou, “Are you Zong Shou?”
Zong Shou smiled but didn’t reply, just bowing slightly.
Li Wuque accepted it and continued, “So, you sent an envoy to force Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty to give up land and to provoke Liu Muchen here. This was actually a trap?”
Zong Shou still didn’t reply, he only continued to smile. He obviously couldn’t say that he dug a hole for him to jump in, that would be a little too much.
“You want to swallow the dozens of worlds here and also have the moral high ground, so no one can scold you. Even if we want to interfere, we can’t. How ingenious…”
After Li Wuque came, he didn’t use Spiritual Sense to suppress. However, his eyes were like a furnace that stared at Zong Shou.
A huge pressure spread through Zong Shou’s body.
Moments later, he retracted it.
“Help you escape from this problematic situation? What a joke! He doesn’t even want to kill you, what do you have to escape from?”
He wasn’t speaking to Zong Shou, but Liu Muchen who was kneeling down.
Liu Muchen was stunned, only afterward he came to his senses.
If Zong Shou killed him here, what benefits would he obtain?
Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty lists hundreds of Heaven Grade Dao Soldiers and close to 40 God Realm Cultivators.
As for Saint Realm Venerables, they lost three.
At this moment, they were a defensive piece of meat that people craved.
If he died here, then they would be at risk of collapsing.
That would not only not help Zong Shou but instead cause bigger problems for him.
A weak Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty that he didn’t have to worry about was what he really needed.
He glanced to the side to see that Zong Shou’s face was expressionless as if he was silently acknowledging.
His expression changed and he forced a smile, “I panicked and lost my bearings.”
At this moment, he was totally ashamed.
Li Wuque didn’t say anything, his finger casually slashing and Liu Muchen’s left arm fell off.
“He is in the wrong this time! I will let him kowtow to you apologetically and use this arm to compensate for his sins. Is that enough?”
Zong Shou didn’t bother to think and shook his head, “If his cultivation isn’t lowered, I feel uneasy.”
To say the truth, he wasn’t afraid of Li Wuque’s Sharp gaze.
“Oh? That makes sense but if he is too injured he won’t have the ability to stabilize the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty. To suppress the ambition and fend off the enemies. Won’t you get what you want?”
Li Wuque thought about it, “Within 100 years, I ensure Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty won’t offend you. Don’t tell me after 100 years, you aren’t confident in dealing with my lackey?”
Was he trying to provoke him? Zong Shou laughed.
“Then, I will follow your words! 100 years is enough.”
He didn’t fear, just that these 100 years would mostly be used on Lu Family and Cloud World matters. He didn’t want to have to deal with them too.
Since he could win him once, then naturally he could win him twice.
Li Wuque nodded his head, satisfaction appearing on his face, “Then, today’s matter has come to an end.”
He looked at Liu Muchen to tell him to admit his mistakes.
Liu Muchen’s face turned red, and his eyes were filled with a wronged expression.
To kowtow to a junior and admit mistakes was a great humiliation.
Just as he hesitated, a cold laugh spread out from the void.
“How would it be so simple to end it like this?”
This voice didn’t come from any of them. Everyone, including Zong Shou, looked over.
Thinking to himself who jumped out to stir the situation?
He looked out to see a person wearing a purple-gold robe step over.
He had a carriage behind him which sped through the air. On the carriage were eight bright-eyed God Realm Cultivators.
The girls who followed behind were all top beauties and had Celestial Realm cultivation.
In any other place, they would be called fairies and celestials, but now they were dressed as slaves.
Without an exception, they had a flame stitched on their right sleeves.
“Rude words, arrogant and unrestrained, scolding the top heir of our Sky Burning Lu Family, future Emperor Lord. Who says you can leave like that?”
