Chapter 36 Don't touch me, it's bad luck
"It's only been a month."
Mo Wu said calmly.
"As the saying goes, a day apart feels like three autumns."
Zhou Xianzong chuckled.
"Yeah."
Mo Wu's beautiful big eyes darted around.
"I'll take you to see Bloodstone in a bit."
"Bloodstone? The owner of the Crimson Pavilion?"
Zhou Xianzong frowned slightly.
The Crimson Tower is a notorious assassin organization in Tianwu City, feared by all.
It is said that Scarlet Tower has never failed in any assassination mission it has undertaken.
Zhou Xianzong knew that Mo Wu had a very extensive network of relationships.
But he never expected that he would take him to see the Bloodstone.
After all, the plot mostly focuses on Xiao Potian, with very little depiction of Zhou Xianzong's private life.
The plot then becomes increasingly intense.
First, someone hired assassins from the Crimson Pavilion to kill Xiao Potian, but they were killed by Xiao Potian instead.
The conflict between the two sides thus began.
Following that, Xiao Potian destroyed the Crimson Tower step by step.
This was also the first force that Xiao Potian conquered.
There are also many small subplots during this period.
First, someone from the Zhou Dynasty will come to discuss medicinal herb business with Mo Wu.
The one who came was Zhou Xianzong's mother, who is now the Queen of Zhou.
Next came the negotiations between Zhou's mother and the Qingyang Sect.
Zhou Xianzong's parents doted on him and always granted his every wish.
This can be seen from the message sent by Emperor Xianzong of Zhou, instructing Mo Wu to take over the medicinal materials of the Zhou Dynasty.
But it was Luo Le'er's matter that had always been a worry for Zhou's mother.
Of course, she didn't want to see her son suffer here, but she couldn't go against Zhou Xianzong's wishes.
Therefore, he had previously agreed to let Zhou Xianzong come to Tianwu City.
But now, so much time has passed, and there's still no good news.
Therefore, the reason why Zhou's mother came in person this time was twofold: firstly, to discuss the medicinal herb business, and secondly, to issue a final ultimatum to the Qingyang Sect.
Either set a date, or the Zhou army will press in and destroy the Qingyang Sect.
But Luo Le'er was proud and stubborn enough to refuse no matter what.
After being rejected, Zhou Xianzong gradually became obsessed and even a bit crazy.
The love in his heart gradually turned into hatred, and Luo Le'er became his obsession.
This also sowed the first seed for the downfall of the Zhou Dynasty.
After being rejected, Zhou Xianzong went out to indulge in debauchery and even kept a mistress.
But that woman came to destroy the Zhou Dynasty.
The reason is that more than ten years ago, when the Zhou Dynasty army was on a campaign, a general wiped out a small family because of his lust.
This woman was the only survivor of that small family.
Although the general had died in battle a few years ago.
But the woman's hatred was unquenchable, and she vowed to destroy the Zhou Dynasty.
At this point, Zhou Xianzong had something to say.
Is the premise of this cerebral palsy novel insane?
It's not like my Zhou family killed your whole family.
If you want revenge, go find that general; besides, he's dead now.
The saying goes, "Misfortune should not extend to one's own family." Even if you want to wipe out his entire family, you should still go after his relatives.
Why the hell are they looking for the Zhou family out of the blue?
I didn't offend you.
"Oh dear, she's the female lead, and your son is the main villain. She definitely won't agree to it."
Zhou Xianzong muttered something bitterly to himself.
It seems like in a few days it will be the day when both families have a good meal, which is what is known as the parents meeting.
Then we'll be proven wrong again.
When will this plot ever end?
“That’s right. Recently, Bloodstone wanted to do some pill business with me. I’ll take you there today so we can talk about it.”
Mo Wu said softly.
"good."
Zhou Xianzong nodded.
Although the Crimson Tower is very strong, it is still somewhat inferior to the Treasure Pavilion.
This is because of Mo Wu's background; it is a super family that even Bloodstone fears.
The carriage was very fast, speeding along the road.
But it's not the road to Tianwu City.
Instead, they headed towards the direction of the Broken Bone Forest.
This place was once a brutal battlefield, but after decades or even centuries, only bones remain.
"rise!"
Li Fugui shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage took off into the air.
The warhorse seemed to move with the wind, carrying the carriage straight into the sky.
Click!
Suddenly, the carriage seemed to have shattered the barrier and flew into another world.
"No wonder there are so many talented people in the city, yet they couldn't find the Crimson Tower's headquarters even after searching high and low. So this is where it is."
Zhou Xianzong was dumbfounded.
This Bloodstone is quite a talent; not only did he establish his base in the Chaotic Bone Forest, but he also used magical artifacts to build a fortress in the air.
From the outside, there is absolutely no flaw visible; a barrier isolates the view.
Who the hell can find this?
Unfortunately, it won't be long before Xiao Potian takes over this place.
It's all very luxurious, but in the end, we're just working for someone else.
After the carriage entered the barrier, people from the Crimson Pavilion came to guide it.
The group made their way to the secret chamber, where Bloodstone had been waiting for them for a long time.
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Lord Mo Wu, to make this trip in person."
Bloodstone quickly got up to greet him.
Because Bloodstone's identity is too sensitive, he might be discovered if he goes to Tianwu City.
That's why Mo Wu made the trip herself.
"It's alright, it's just business."
Mo Wu waved her hand and said calmly.
"And this is...?"
Xue Shi looked at Zhou Xianzong in confusion. He didn't remember when Mo Wu had ever had such a person by her side.
Moreover, Mo Wu never brings anyone else along when discussing business.
“He is my good younger brother. You must treat him well this time. If he is satisfied, the Treasure Pavilion will supply you with the pills you need in the future.”
Mo Wu sat down on her own.
Holy crap.
Sister Mo, didn't you say you were bringing me here to discuss business?
What does it mean to simply wash your hands of the business?
Let me tell you, I'm very easy to bribe.
Don't blame me later.
“That’s easy to say, young brother. Since you are Lord Mo Wu’s younger brother, then you are my brother. I’ll have to rely on you today.”
Xue Shi was incredibly enthusiastic, and quickly came over to pat Zhou Xianzong on the shoulder.
He looked like a good buddy.
Who's your good buddy?
You're someone who's about to die and won't last more than a few episodes.
Don't touch me, it's bad luck.
Although he thought this way, Zhou Xianzong still gave Xue Shi a lot of face on the surface.
"That's for sure, for sure."
"Someone, bring the wine, and also bring the girls up."
Bloodstone shouted.
Soon, a group of extras brought in jars of fine wine, along with over thirty attractive women dressed provocatively.
"Young man, this is all the treasures I have, and I've brought them all up for you today. You'd better give me some face."
Bloodstone said with a chuckle.
"Whoever serves my little brother well today will be rewarded with a thousand gold pieces."
Damn it!
Zhou Xianzong's eyes widened.
This is blatant bribery.
Thirty-odd people? How can I possibly handle that?
They'll drain me dry in less than half a day.
Goodness, from now on you're like my own brother. Putting everything else aside, I'll make sure you get everything arranged for Sister Mo.
Seeing this, Mo Wu thought to herself, "As expected, you little rascal love acting the most."
On the surface, he is devoted to Luo Le'er to the death, but in reality, he's spending money on her.
"Alright then, you can have some fun here while I talk to Bloodstone."
"good."
Zhou Xianzong nodded.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the girl he had chosen earlier suddenly squeezed into his arms, bumping right into him.
This really surprised him.
