Chapter 102: Chapter 100: Sitting at Home, Disaster Falls from the Heavens

’After thinking it over and over, the side effects of the Chaos Finger seemed most appropriate.’

’After all, they already have such needs. The Chaos Finger just amplifies them.’

’And even for a strong and robust Martial Artist, as long as they aren’t practicing some Replenishing Evil Skill, excessive indulgence would still carry the risk of draining one’s body.’

’So, even though practicing the Chaos Finger doesn’t increase my progress much anymore, I can still use the Celestial Immortal Joy Powder as an aid to practice it a little every day…’

Zou Feng had only just begun his practice when a sudden clamor arose from outside.

Shortly after, Zhao Tianhu, who had also just rushed back, reported from outside the door in a strange tone, “Hall Master, someone is here to see you…”

“Who wants to see me?”

“Su Changqing of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect!”

Hearing this name he had never encountered before, Zou Feng was quite baffled.

’Why would a disciple of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect want to see me?’

’We have no connection whatsoever…’

’It’s true that I can cure the poison of the Great Compassion Hand, but the Celestial Essence Sword Sect has been fighting the Ten Directions Sect for so long that they must have their own methods to counter the Cold Poison. They wouldn’t need to seek help from a quack doctor like me.’

With these thoughts in mind, Zou Feng still went out immediately.

In the front hall of the pharmacy, the man he had just seen from a distance was indeed sitting there.

It was the Celestial Essence Sword Sect disciple who had arrived with Song Sixing.

“May I help you, Sir?” Zou Feng said, cupping his fist in salute.

Su Changqing slowly turned his head, remaining seated. He sized Zou Feng up and down before asking nonchalantly, “You are Zou Feng?”

“I am. What can I do for you, Sir?” Zou Feng felt increasingly bewildered.

Unexpectedly, Su Changqing just gave a faint smile, then stood up and started walking outside.

Once he was out the door, he said softly, “Nothing!”

Zou Feng followed him out, only to find that Su Changqing had really just left. He quickly led the group of people who had come with him off the Dragon Gate Boat.

’What a psycho!’

Zou Feng had no idea what was wrong with this Su Changqing.

’Judging by his expression just now, he doesn’t seem to be inclined toward men, either.’

’Could it be…’

Zou Feng subconsciously immersed his mind in the List of Gods.

Su Changqing’s name was right there.

Staring at the name, Zou Feng was utterly speechless.

’Talk about disaster striking out of nowhere.’ He was now experiencing it in the most profound way.

’What the hell did I do for this lunatic to want to kill me?’

’And he didn’t act immediately, which means he’s wary of something. Is he planning to make me die in an “accident” later?’

In the past, Zou Feng rarely panicked when someone’s name appeared on the list. But an Elite Disciple from a behemoth like the Celestial Essence Sword Sect was a different story; he had to be on high alert immediately.

During the operation to clear out the shantytown, Zou Feng had witnessed the Sword Qi projected from a distance by a Seventh Grade Elite Disciple of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect.

Its sharpness was no joke.

But the most pressing matter now was to figure out why this guy wanted to kill him.

’Since this person boarded the boat with the Sixth Young Master, Bian Yixia must know something…’

At this thought, Zou Feng set out at once, preparing to find Bian Yixia and sound her out.

At this time of day, as long as Bian Yixia hadn’t left the Dragon Gate Boat, she would most likely be in the Practice Room.

Unexpectedly, before he even got close to the Practice Room, he found it guarded by people who were clearly preventing anyone from approaching.

“Master Zou!”

Seeing Zou Feng approach, the two gang members guarding the area immediately saluted.

“What’s going on?”

One of the gang members replied, “The Miss and the Sixth Young Master are inside discussing important matters. They’ve ordered that no one is to enter…”

Zou Feng nodded. “Alright, then I won’t go in. I’ll just wait here, that should be fine, right?”

“Of course. Please, make yourself comfortable, Master Zou!”

The reason Zou Feng wanted to wait here was that he could hear the two people talking inside the Practice Room weren’t lowering their voices.

It was mainly Bian Yixia; her emotions were running high, and she was clearly arguing with Song Sixing.

“Big Sis, why are you being like this? Marrying Su Changqing and getting the Celestial Essence Sword Sect’s resources is much better than staying here, isn’t it?”

Faintly hearing these words from Song Sixing, Zou Feng was quite taken aback.

’Wait, as an Elite Disciple of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect, Su Changqing could have any beauty he wants. Why would he be interested in Bian Yixia’s type?’

’It’s not that Bian Yixia is unattractive. Judging by her face alone, she’s a classic sweet girl with a baby face.’

’But the woman is a bit too short, and her years of relentless martial arts training have made her muscles quite prominent, giving her a robust appearance.’

’While she hadn’t reached the level of a muscle-bound Barbie, she certainly wasn’t the type to inspire love at first sight.’

’Not to mention, the disciples of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect clearly look down on those who practice Evil Skills…’

“Old Sixth, do you hear yourself? You want me to be his concubine? In his dreams!”

“Big Sis, calm down. Haven’t you always longed to break through to the Gang Qi Realm? Getting the resources of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect might be your only chance!” Song Sixing’s voice was very sincere.

Bian Yixia sneered. “For us Martial Cultivators, if we betray our own hearts and lose our Heart Qi, what’s the use of having more resources?”

Song Sixing let out a long sigh. “Oh, Big Sis, why can’t you see it? To reach the top, opportunities are an indispensable condition. If hard training alone was enough, half of our Black Flood Dragon Gang would be Gang Qi Realm masters by now!”

“Enough! Stop with this bullshit. I’m not marrying him, and that’s final. I could tell that Su Changqing was no good from the moment I saw him!”

“Do you really think he’s genuinely fallen for me? He just finds me novel, a plaything he’s never encountered before!”

Seeing his persuasion was useless, Song Sixing fell silent for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject. “So, the rumors are true… Big Sis, don’t tell me you’ve actually fallen for that guy, Zou Feng?”

“That’s enough! Say another word of nonsense and see if I don’t beat you up!” Bian Yixia said in a low voice. From the sound of it, she was already moving toward Song Sixing.

’Actually, it’s normal for rumors like this to spread about Zou Feng and Bian Yixia. After all, the two of them sparred in the Practice Room almost every day.’

’Furthermore, Bian Yixia did indeed hold Zou Feng in high regard and would often invite him to eat Spirit Fish together. These were all factors that could easily lead to rumors.’

’But Zou Feng knew there was nothing improper between them.’

’Bian Yixia had simply, for once, found someone who could keep up with her in sparring for so long without complaint.’

’It was just that Bian Yixia had a very straightforward and unceremonious personality, and in many situations, she wouldn’t deliberately avoid actions that might cause suspicion.’

’But now, because of Bian Yixia’s rejection of Su Changqing, those baseless rumors had made me the scapegoat for no reason…’

’Of course, that Su Changqing was still a complete psycho. He wasn’t even sincere, yet just because he lost face over this trivial matter, he developed killing intent toward me.’

Next, Bian Yixia really did start to beat up Song Sixing. Zou Feng didn’t need to listen any longer and quickly turned back to the pharmacy.

At this point, it was useless to dwell on it any further.

’Since Song Sixing is courting death, he can’t blame me for what comes next.’

’I originally planned to continue practicing the Great Compassion Hand using the normal method from the manual for a while longer. But now, it looks like I’ll have to enter ’reckless-as-hell training mode’ ahead of schedule!’
