Chapter 364: Doudou: I’ll pa.s.s by the doors of home nine times without entering!
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
In the next moment, Doudou saw the stars. His head slammed against a barrier. The protective s.h.i.+eld was extremely durable—worthily something of the Venerable rank. Doudou felt as if he had b.u.mped into a layer of tempered steel; his head was hurting.
Luckily, Guoguo timely held the sickly Chu Chu, preventing her injury from worsening.
Doudou returned on Meteor Sword"s sword light and, somewhat depressed, said, "It"s useless. Venerable White arranged a defensive barrier around the flying sword, we can"t jump down."
"..." Song Shuhang.
After pondering for a moment, he said, "Perhaps we can try to attack Senior White? If I"m not mistaken, he should be able to feel killing intent even while in secluded meditation. That should be enough to wake him up!"
"Hehe. Woof, if you want to die, go die alone and don"t drag this dog with you," Doudou said disdainfully. Don"t you know how scary Venerables can be?
What would they do if Venerable White were to unconsciously attack them after reacting to the killing intent?
If he were to release a million beams of sword qi as a counterattack, all the people on the flying sword would be instantly cut into fine, uniform pieces!
"In that case, what should we do? Stay on the flying sword for two days?" Song Shuhang said as he shrugged his shoulders.
"Perhaps we can offer a prayer… according to the rumors, praying to Senior White while he"s in secluded meditation is very effective. We can pray for him to come out of secluded meditation a bit earlier," Guoguo suggested.
Doudou shrugged his shoulders. "But I don"t have an incense burner with me."
s.h.i.+et, Soft Feather wasn"t joking when she said that offering prayers to Venerable White while he was in secluded meditation could produce miraculous effects! There is really such a rumor in the world of cultivators, even Doudou and Guoguo know about it!
"As long as one sincerely believes in it, it will work. Using incense is merely a tradition," Guoguo said in all seriousness. Afterward, he joined his palms together and started his prayer. "Senior White, I hope you can bless Venerable White and make him come out of secluded meditation a bit earlier!"
"..." Song Shuhang. This wish is so G.o.dd.a.m.n stupid!
After finis.h.i.+ng his prayers, Guoguo touched his bald head… While I"m at it, shouldn"t I wish for a few more things?
Thereupon, Guoguo continued, "Senior White, give me your blessing! I hope that after Senior Brother Three Realms brings me back, Abbot Profound Principle won"t spank me until making me s.h.i.+t all over the place like Senior Brother Shuhang."
"..." Song Shuhang.
When did I exactly spank you until making you s.h.i.+t all over the place? In your dreams? Should I turn your dreams into reality?
After making the wish, Guoguo looked all around before closing his eyes and continuing, "I almost forgot. I hope that Senior White will allow Miss Chu Chu to recover a bit faster."
Alright, this wish isn"t too bad.
Chu Chu looked at Guoguo gratefully. Afterward, while no one was paying attention to her, she quietly closed her eyes and wished in her heart, I hope to step onto the Grievance Settling Platform and fight for the Chu Family, defeating all the disciples of the Illusory Sword School!
After making her wish, she quietly opened her eyes and looked all around. After seeing that Song Shuhang, Guoguo, and Doudou weren"t paying attention to her, she heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, she felt like a petty thief...
❄️❄️❄️
Luckily, Song Shuhang brought with him some fasting pills this time. With that, he wouldn"t have to worry about starving in these two days.
In the meantime, Venerable White"s flying sword carried them along for a tour around the world.
In the beginning, it was still flying in a straight line. But later, its route changed to a strange pattern.
The people of the United States of America welcome you~
The people of the United Arab Emirates welcome you~
The people of Australia welcome you~
Then, after changing direction again and again… it finally returned to the East China Sea.
After returning to the East China Sea, Meteor Sword"s flying pattern returned to normal. They saw once more the sign, "The people of Dongding welcome you", as well as the other signs in Wenzhou, Lishui, Longyong… and finally Huangshan!
"Oh, we"ve arrived in Huangshan." Song Shuhang looked downward and yawned.
Perhaps because he was weary, Song Shuhang"s straightforward attribute resurfaced; hence, he said to Doudou, "Doudou, this is already the second time you"re pa.s.sing by the doors of home without entering. I have faith in you. I think you can pa.s.s a third time as well. Even the fourth or fifth time isn"t out of the question!"
Doudou looked at Song Shuhang and gnashed his teeth.
He was planning to give Shuhang a good bite as soon as they descended from the flying sword.
There was no need to worry about getting rabies; Doudou"s teeth were very clean.
"So boring," Song Shuhang muttered to himself. Right, there should be signal in this place. After all, we"re flying above China. If there is signal, I should contact Soft Feather and tell her to pay attention to Venerable White"s gift.
Song Shuhang stretched his hand in a daze and started to look for the phone in his pocket… Eh? Where is my phone?
Wait! Didn"t Senior White take my phone when I got on the flying sword?
"..." Song Shuhang.
Did Venerable White take precautions against me leaking information to the seniors in the Nine Provinces Number One Group?
❄️❄️❄️
Meteor Sword"s speed got faster and faster… to the point that Song Shuhang saw sunrise several times in the span of a few hours.
He was literally closing and opening his eyes just to see the sun rise.
He tried it once more; he closed and opened his eyes. The sun followed suit and rose again!
Hence he decided to keep his eyes continuously closed and afterward continuously open… but the sun kept rising again and again!
He was rather tired.
This trip around the world spanned across several countries.
During this period of time, they nearly crashed against a fighter plane of an unknown country, almost causing an aerial disaster. Luckily, Meteor Sword was a sentient sword and promptly avoided the collision.
After an unknown amount of time, Meteor Sword returned to the East China Sea.
Afterward, they pa.s.sed through Dongding, Wenzhou, Lishui, Longyong and finally Huangshan again!
Song Shuhang turned his head around and said to Doudou, "This is already the third time you pa.s.s by the doors of home without entering."
"Senior Doudou is really heartless. You actually pa.s.sed by the doors of home three times and didn"t enter," Guoguo said to Doudou with a serious expression on his face.
Doudou revealed his sharp claws and aimed at Song Shuhang and Guoguo, seemingly looking for a good place to strike.
Shuhang and Guoguo immediately shut their mouths...
Now then, how much is left until Venerable White comes out of secluded meditation?
While bored, Song Shuhang started to practice the ❮Basic Buddhist Fist Technique❯ and the ❮Immovable Body of the Buddha❯ in place. Qi and blood energy had filled his five apertures once more. He only needed Venerable White to untie the seal to break through the Second Stage and become a True Master.
❄️❄️❄️
Next, Doudou pa.s.sed by the doors of home for the fourth time...
After an unknown amount of time, Doudou had pa.s.sed by the doors of home for the ninth time… and Meteor Sword"s speed was getting faster and faster.
❄️❄️❄️
July 21th, in the wee hours of the morning.
In the territory of the Illusory Sword and the Chu Family, on the Grievance Settling Platform.
The battle was about to start.
At this time, the people of the Chu Family and the Illusory Sword School were standing on the extremities of the platform.
A tall and thin man approached the leader of the Chu Family and said in a soft voice, "Family leader, Chu Chu hasn"t returned yet."
The family leader clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
On the other side, the school head of the Illusory Sword School had a gruesome smile on his face...
