Zhou Tong is gambling.
Du Fengqitong was just bluffing him; he didn't dare kill him.
At this moment, even if he wanted to resist, it was too late. Or rather, after Feng Qitong used this killing move, he had no power to fight back. Unless he had made thorough preparations beforehand, he should at least be prepared to lose half his life.
This is still the ideal situation.
He is currently at the Saint-Demon Realm, which is similar to the Saint level in the Nine Provinces Continent, while Feng Qitong is at the Demon King Realm, which is the Saint King level.
His cultivation level was already above his.
Shoot shoo shoo
The icy wind lashed against him like sharp blades.
All the blades passed by him, and with several loud bangs, they smashed the hard rock behind him into dust and vanished.
Beads of cold sweat the size of soybeans were dripping from Zhou Tong's forehead, and the chill on his back had soaked through his clothes.
"That was close!"
He opened his eyes and, seeing that he was safe and sound, breathed a sigh of relief. Then, his gaze fell into the darkness, and he said loudly, "This is my duty, and I hope the young master will forgive me."
"This is the first time I'm forgiving you. If you use her to threaten me again, I will kill you."
A cold, detached voice, accompanied by a chilling murderous aura, echoed far and wide, resounding like a blooming flower in the deep valley.
Zhou Tong smiled, but his body couldn't help but tremble.
He knew that if Feng Qitong was truly angry, she would actually disregard the clan leader's prohibition and kill him.
...
Dahuang City
Wentian Tower.
Standing before the crystal ball shimmering with blue lightning, Lu Shan quietly watched the light screen before him. Within the screen, everything Zhou Mu had experienced in Tian Shu County flashed by.
The moment he saw Jiang Jinyu, a look of amazement flashed in his eyes. She was like a female celebrity he had seen in his past life, or even more beautiful than a female celebrity. Her unique temperament alone was enough to outshine all others.
However, he just couldn't feel happy.
He had just performed a divination for Zhou Mu, and the divination showed that Zhou Mu's fate had changed again.
Logically speaking, a person's destiny should not change unless there is a major upheaval, especially since it has changed several times already.
The only plausible reason is that Jiang Jinyu's appearance changed Zhou Mu's original fate.
Can……
Does Jiang Jinyu really have such abilities?
Inside the light screen, Zhou Mu practically treated Jiang Jinyu like a little princess.
He was also a time traveler, possessing cheat abilities far exceeding those of this era. In other words, they had a natural advantage when facing the local forces of this world.
But Zhou Mu's behavior was too abnormal.
The only reasonable explanation is that Jiang Jinyu's background is so powerful that even with the help of a cheat system, they still can't defeat her.
"The war between the Nine Provinces Continent and the extraterrestrial demons has been brought forward..."
Looking at the divination result displayed on the crystal ball, Lu Shan was suddenly shocked. He stood up abruptly and exclaimed in horror.
Previously, Zhou Mu had briefly explained to him the major events that would follow.
The demise of the mighty Zhou Dynasty was not only due to internal troubles caused by political instability, but also to the external threat of foreign demons lurking in the shadows. If this powerful empire showed the slightest weakness, the foreign demons would pounce on it like tigers.
The saying goes, "Take advantage of your illness to kill you."
After Zhou Mu quelled the internal strife in the Nine Provinces and established a powerful and unified empire, his first task was to gather all the empire's strength and strive to eradicate the chronic disease that had plagued the Nine Provinces for thousands of years.
There were ten Great Emperors, twenty-seven Quasi-Emperors, and countless Saint Kings, Saints, and Martial Artists—the elite forces of most of the Nine Provinces Continent had been mobilized.
Even so, when faced with the counterattack from the extraterrestrial demons, the latter used the terrain to their advantage to intercept them layer by layer, and in the end, these elite troops dispatched by the Great Zhou Empire never returned to their homeland.
The Great Zhou Dynasty suffered a severe blow from this incident and never recovered.
Emperor Wu of Zhou, Zhou Mu, felt extremely guilty because of this, which sowed the seeds of his future misfortune.
Lu Shan thought about it a lot, and finally let out a long sigh.
I got up and stretched my stiff body.
At this moment, Qian Qingyun walked over. He had been here for more than half a month and was sweeping and cleaning as usual. He seemed much more composed than before.
He, who was usually serious and unsmiling, was all smiles at everyone he met.
Lu Shan smiled when he saw Qian Qingyun and asked, "Has the fifteen-day deadline passed?"
Qian Qingyun smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, that's why I came to find you."
"Have you let go of the hatred in your heart?" Lu Shan suddenly asked.
How could one so easily let go of a deep-seated hatred? Qian Qingyun was taken aback by the question, but he was honest and shook his head, saying bitterly, "No."
He was originally the crown prince of the Great Gan Dynasty. His father was in his middle age, and the dynasty was at its zenith. There was no doubt that when he took over the country, it would be an extremely prosperous and glorious era.
However, all of this changed one day.
His thirteenth uncle, a noble prince with an iron cap, was the closest of his father's fifteen brothers. He actually led five thousand elite soldiers into the palace at night, killed his father, and defiled his mother.
If it weren't for his personal guards risking their lives to protect him and escort him out of the palace, he would have died in that palace coup.
A prestigious status vanished overnight, and a harmonious family disappeared in an instant.
