Chapter 11: Eliminating Future Troubles, Did Zhou Sui Play Dead?! _1
Translator: 549690339
Deep within the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, located on the outskirts of Misty Cloud City.
Liu Dong appeared in the heart of the mountains alongside three fellow loose cultivators. As cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, they possessed enough strength to navigate the Cloud Mist Mountain Range with a certain level of safety.
“Are you absolutely certain about the location of the hundred-year-old Golden Thorn Grass?”
Liu Dong pressed for confirmation.
“I am positive.”
The middle-aged cultivator, who possessed a sharp, monkey-like face, gave a firm nod. “I would never mislead you. We have been comrades for a long time. I stumbled upon a hidden valley while fleeing from a beast in these mountains, and that is where I spotted the hundred-year-old spiritual medicine.
Regrettably, several first-grade beasts were protecting it. Since I was no match for them alone, I couldn't get near, which is why I sought your help this time.
You all understand the worth of a hundred-year-old spiritual medicine. A single specimen can fetch thousands of lower grade spiritual stones. Combined with the materials from the beast carcasses, our total take should reach at least two or three thousand lower grade spiritual stones. Even split four ways, the profit is substantial.”
He made a solemn vow to the heavens, insisting he wasn't uttering a single falsehood.
“Very well. If this proves true, you will certainly receive your fair portion of the spoils.”
Hearing those words, Liu Dong felt a wave of relief. He had known this man for years; while he could be erratic, he wasn't known for lying to his peers.
Furthermore, their long history made him confident that the man wouldn't dare trick him.
He calculated that if they succeeded, his share would provide hundreds of lower grade spiritual stones—enough to purchase the pills needed to break through to the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer.
This was a vital step on his path of Foundation Establishment, and he could not permit any failure.
Suddenly, the image of Zhou Sui, his late friend's son, flashed through Liu Dong's mind, causing his expression to darken.
If that brat hadn't entangled himself with a Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer female cultivator, the Zhou family residence would already be in his possession.
By now, he would have likely reached the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer within the safety of Misty Cloud City, rather than risking his life in the wilderness.
A month had passed; surely that black widow had finished playing with Zhou Sui by now.
“Watch out, an ambush!”
While Liu Dong was lost in thought, a sudden chill raced down his spine. His hair stood on end as a terrifying sense of impending doom washed over him—a survival instinct honed by years as a loose cultivator.
Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted four streaks of silver sword light approaching from afar. They traveled with staggering velocity, carried by a lethal Metallic Power capable of shredding anything in its path.
Sensing he was in mortal peril, he desperately tried to pivot away.
However, the sword light moved too swiftly. Even with his cultivation level, evasion was impossible.
BANG~~~
In a flash, a beam of sword light tore through his skull, causing it to burst like a shattered melon. Blood sprayed in every direction as Liu Dong collapsed, dead before he could even let out a cry.
He didn't even catch a glimpse of his executioner before the end.
His final conscious thought was one of overwhelming regret. Had he realized the true dangers lurking outside the city walls, he never would have stepped foot out there.
But regrets are useless to the dead.
Liu Dong wasn't the only victim; the other three loose cultivators were similarly struck down by a single sword light, dying instantly on the spot.
SWISH SWISH SWISH!!!
Moments later, three elegant figures stepped out from the dense foliage. They were Ji Bingyu, Mu Ziyi, and Xia Jingyan.
“Sister, you haven't practiced much since I last saw you wield your blade a month ago, yet your sword qi has grown even more formidable. Killing four Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivators in one strike is truly amazing.”
Mu Ziyi gazed at Ji Bingyu with profound respect.
“Indeed, that power felt comparable to a Foundation Establishment cultivator.”
Xia Jingyan was equally stunned. She had seen sword cultivators at the Qi Cultivation stage before, but none as terrifying as Ji Bingyu.
A month ago, Ji Bingyu's strength was within a range she could understand, but now, she seemed twice as powerful.
The mystery was: hadn't she been preoccupied with worldly pleasures day and night? How could her strength have surged so much in just thirty days?
Her mind was filled with suspicion.
“I am not entirely sure myself, but since staying with my husband, I feel my soul power has surged significantly, even triggering the birth of Foundation Establishment spiritual sense.”
Ji Bingyu offered a soft smile. “Because of this, my mastery of the sword has progressed immensely, allowing me to sense danger before it even manifests.”
As she spoke, she thought back to the past month, her cheeks flushing slightly.
It was as if she already yearned for her husband despite their brief separation.
To her, a moment apart felt like an eternity.
However, the primary goal of this excursion was to eliminate Liu Dong. She couldn't allow a villain who had plotted against her husband to remain alive.
“Is that actually possible?”
Xia Jingyan was baffled. Could dual cultivation truly boost one's progress so rapidly? Or did that man possess some unique trait that benefited his partners?
If the latter were true, that man was a rare treasure indeed.
She sank into deep contemplation.
“Come, let us head further into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range to gather the spiritual medicine before returning to Misty Cloud City.” Ji Bingyu was anxious to get home. Even this short distance made her feel a sense of longing and unease.
“Very well.”
Xia Jingyan nodded, collecting the storage bags from Liu Dong and his companions. The corpses would soon be devoured by the local wildlife.
Such occurrences were commonplace in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range and went unnoticed by most.
……
At the same time, Zhou Sui was preparing to leave his house.
He had stayed indoors for an entire month and was growing restless. More importantly, he needed to visit the local markets to find ingredients for his Gu Insects.
“Zhou Sui? You’re still alive?”
As he stepped out, a middle-aged neighbor shouted in disbelief. This was Zhang Cheng, a lower first-grade pill master at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, aged forty-five.
He had lived next to the Zhou family for years.
“Dead? Why on earth would I be dead?”
Zhou Sui’s mouth twitched as he looked at the man with a look of pure confusion.
“Ahem, just a misunderstanding. I simply thought something might have happened since you haven't stepped outside in a month.”
Zhang Cheng’s face turned bright red as he let out a forced, awkward laugh.
In truth, he assumed that after a month behind closed doors, the "black widow" would have sucked Zhou Sui dry—leaving him a withered husk.
When Zhou Sui suddenly appeared, Zhang Cheng momentarily thought he was seeing a ghost seeking vengeance against the woman.
Who would have guessed the boy was still healthy and full of life? It was truly mind-boggling.
