Chapter 86 cost him his life.

"Sister Mo, let's leave it here."

Zhou Xianzong began to speak.

"Okay, be careful on your way back."

Mo Wu nodded slightly and pulled back the carriage curtain.

Zhou Xianzong led Yingxi off the carriage and headed towards the Qingyang Sect.

This place is within the Qingyang Sect's territory; it will take less than half an incense stick's time to reach it.

After Zhou Xianzong left, Mo Wu did not drive the carriage away, but waited quietly in the same spot.

Before long, Li Fugui caught up with them.

"How's the situation going?"

Mo Wu asked calmly.

"Miss, as you instructed, I gave him a good beating. This kid won't recover for at least a few days."

Li Fugui told the truth.

Mo Wu nodded in satisfaction, then lazily crossed her legs.

"Let's go back to the Treasure Pavilion. I'm really tired these past two days."

These past two days, she, along with Li Fugui and the others from the Treasure Pavilion, have spent a lot of time searching for Yingxi in the Monster Forest, enduring hardships along the way.

She was quite satisfied with today's outcome; at least she had dealt with Xiao Potian.

"good."

Li Fugui agreed and drove the carriage toward the Treasure Pavilion.

On the way, he suddenly remembered what Xiao Potian had said before, and told Mo Wu those words exactly as they were.

"She's a little mentally unstable, she doesn't work very well, you don't need to worry about her."

Mo Wu didn't take it to heart at all.

"He wouldn't actually go to see Prince Zhou, would he?"

Li Fugui asked casually.

"Who knows?"

Mo Wu pursed her lips.

On the other side, after returning to the Qingyang Sect, Zhou Xianzong hurriedly took a hot shower to relax.

Although Yingxi is not supposed to get into trouble before the finale in the story, he is still a little worried, fearing that those extras might be too careless and actually try to kill him.

This caused him to be in a tense state for two or three days, and he didn't get a good rest.

Now that he's finally back, he immediately lay down and took out his diary.

[It's really strange. I wonder what Xiao Potian said to Mo Wu that made her let Li Fugui beat him up.]

Their date for today was also canceled.

[Xiao Potian couldn't possibly have thought Mo Wu was keeping me company, so he got jealous and said something he shouldn't have, could he?]

[No way, Mo Wu is one of the female leads, and she's also inclined towards Xiao Potian. But she went way too far.]

Speaking of which, after Xiao Potian breaks through his cultivation level after returning, he'll definitely come looking for trouble with me again.

[I remember it was someone from the Overlord Body Sect who delivered the invitation to me and even treated me to a meal. But when Xiao Potian found out, that kid actually got carried away and came to cause me trouble.]

[It seems he killed someone from the Overlord Body Sect and is trying to frame me.]

[Wow, impressive! Not only did they avenge their defeat at the martial arts tournament, but they also sabotaged me—killing two birds with one stone.]

[After that, he intercepted medicinal herbs being transported by the Treasure Pavilion to the Zhou Dynasty, and he actually succeeded.]

Fortunately, it wasn't anything valuable this time.

Otherwise, if Zhou Chao and the Treasure Pavilion were to jointly investigate, Xiao Potian wouldn't have enough lives to survive.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one bottle of Liuwei Dihuang Pills, physical strength +3, RMB 100,000."

"Are you sick? You're so obsessed with this thing, huh? I'll just cut it off and give it to you."

Zhou Xianzong flew into a rage and immediately launched into a tirade.

Damn it, they always reward me with this stuff.

He doesn't have kidney deficiency.

After casually tossing it into his spatial ring, Zhou Xianzong sprawled out and fell asleep.

Meanwhile, Mo Wu, who was just getting ready to take a good rest, also saw the updated diary.

When she saw what was ahead, she couldn't help but admire how daring Xiao Potian was.

They actually dared to kill someone from the Overlord Body Sect.

You should know that the Overlord Body Sect is notoriously protective of its own.

If they were killed, the Overlord Body Sect would be furious.

Most importantly, he even framed Zhou Xianzong, which is simply outrageous.

"What? Xiao Potian got beaten up? What a pity, I didn't see it with my own eyes."

Xingyueyue pouted and muttered regretfully.

Because of this incident, she developed a good impression of Mo Wu.

However, Xiao Potian's decision to kill the members of the Overlord Body Sect this time is indeed quite audacious.

Once discovered, the Overlord Body Sect will absolutely not let him go, even if Luo Zhantian steps in to protect him.

If someone is killed during a martial arts competition due to a lack of skill, that's understandable. But being assassinated is a much bigger deal.

Moreover, that was an envoy sent by the Overlord Body Sect to deliver an invitation to the Azure Sun Sect. If he were to die, wouldn't that be a slap in their face?

Hmph.

Looks like we're in for a good show.

Whether it's intercepting the goods from the Treasure Pavilion or killing the people from the Overlord Body Sect, it's definitely a major event that will shake up Tianwu City.

The next period of time is going to be quite a challenge for Xiao Potian.

"Moon, what's making you so happy?"

At this moment, a middle-aged figure walked over.

Xing Yueyue turned around and saw that the person who came was the Star Sect Master, who was also her father.

"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered something fun."

Xing Yueyue shook her head; she didn't want to mention Xiao Potian.

"Hehe, I also have some good news to tell you."

The Star Sect Master laughed.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Xingyue asked curiously.

"Do you remember that genius boy at the Alchemist Guild gate last time? I've found out he's a disciple of the Qingyang Sect, and he's the one who won first place in the martial arts competition last time."

The Star Sect Master's expression turned serious as he spoke.

"This kid's alchemy skills are quite sophisticated. He will definitely not stop at the eighth-grade alchemist level. In the future, he may even surpass Guild Master Lu Yan. Moreover, he is quite strong. There are few people in my Starry Sky Sect who can match him."

I heard he invited you to observe his alchemy practice last time, which means he likes you. More interaction between you two will greatly benefit your alchemy skills.

Xingyueyue pouted when she heard her father praising Xiao Potian.

You probably don't know this, but the genius you're talking about just got a beating and is probably hiding somewhere healing right now.

“I’m not interested in him. Let’s talk about it later.”

Xingyueyue gave a perfunctory reply.

...

Zhou Xianzong slept until noon the next day before waking up comfortably.

He glanced at the sky outside; the people from the Overlord Body Sect should have arrived at the Azure Sun Sect by now.

Luo Zhantian should have already received the invitation from the Overlord Body Sect.

In the storyline, Li Badan did not invite Zhou Xianzong separately; he only sent an invitation to Luo Zhantian.

The reason why the envoy of the Ba Body Sect returned the invitation to Emperor Zhou Xianzong was because Wang Ba had given instructions.

The purpose was to cultivate a good relationship with Zhou Xianzong.

Who could have imagined that just one sentence would cost him his life?

"Boss, people from the Overlord Body Sect have arrived. They say they want to see you."

Just then, Erhu's voice came from outside.

"What does he want from me?"

Zhou Xianzong pretended not to know and asked a question.

"I don't know, he didn't tell me."

Erhu shook his head.

"Tell him to wait in the lobby. I'll be there in a bit."

Zhou Xianzong gave the instructions.

"yes."

Erhu readily agreed.

It wasn't that Zhou Xianzong was putting on airs; it was just that he had just woken up, hadn't changed his clothes, and hadn't washed up.

After tidying up, they finally arrived at the lobby.
