Chapter 309: Qi Feng’s Murderous Intent

“These spirit drugs should be of use to you, I’ll give them on to you. Now… it’s time for me to go.””These spirit drugs should be of use to you, I’ll give them on to you. Now… it’s time for me to go.”

Although Mo Ningsang had spoken one last sentence, her G.o.d-like figure had already left Zhou Donghuang’s line of vision. She disappeared completely after uttering this last sentence.

“You have already accessed all of my memories, and there is no need to explain them further… I will be waiting with my tribe for you to come and marry me.”

Once Mo Ningsang had left, Zhou Donghuang was still a little stunned as if he was stuck in a dream.

An instant later, after regaining his composure, he smiled bitterly to himself. “I was single in my old life, so the G.o.ds probably a.s.sumed I was lonely and placed many attractive girls in my way. First, it was Luo Qinghan, and now, it’s Mo Ningsang. Such coincidences!”

At the start, Zhou Donghuang was extremely wary of Mo Ningsang accessing his memories, and he had wanted to attempt to kill her to seal her mouth. But now, he had thrown that idea out of the window for the short term.

With the situation now, it could be seen that Mo Ningsang did not have any evil intent towards him and was truly viewing him as a possible soulmate. She had used up her energy and utilized the secret of her tribe to force the disruption of Spirit energy around the Guiyao planet to enable him to upgrade himself at a breakneck speed.

“In my memories, that kind of secret can only be utilized by core and related members of the tribe… There is a limit to it, and they can only use it once in their life without it impacting them much. However, if they forcefully choose to use it twice, it will deplete their energy and affect their lifespan. Unless they are forced to, no member of the tribe would be willing to perform this secret twice.”

Anyone with a conscience would not think to harm someone who had been good to them.

Now, Zhou Donghuang similarly had also diminished the thought of killing Mo Ningsang.

However, this random marriage was simply too sudden, and he was unsure as to how to react to it. Luo Qinghan alone had already caused him so much emotional turmoil, and bow he had to deal with Mo Ningsang.

If he could choose, he would rather fight someone physically than deal with matters of the heart.

“Forget it… I’ll think about it when the time comes. Let’s just go with the flow and let fate decide.”

After he thought to this point, Zhou Donghuang had another realization.

“The late Primordial Soul stage…”

As Zhou Donghuang’s mind wandered to this topic, four powerful auras unraveled from his body. Within an instant, four glorious and giant Primordial Soul Powers appeared in the skies, and each gave off potent energy.

The first Primordial Soul Power was a dragon, and it meandered in the skies. It was about ten meters long and was extremely magnificent to look at. Clearly, this was his Green Dragon Primordial Soul Power, the result of the Lord of the Four Supremes.

The second Primordial Soul Power was a flying beast, and essential core surrounded his body as if he was on fire. A fiery and intense aura emitted from him; this was Zhou Donghuang’s Vermilion Bird Primordial Soul Power.

The next Primordial Soul Power was a giant tiger that was extremely fierce and fearless. It had explosive energy hidden within it; this was the White Tiger Primordial Soul Power.

Lastly, the final Primordial Soul Power was a huge creature that resembled a turtle. However, its tail was short, and it actually contained another brain like a python. This was his Black Turtle Primordial Soul Power.

“A typical Primordial Soul adept usually has two choices… One would be to create a human-based Primordial Soul Power that they liked. If not, they would have to convert their Dharma Powers to Primordial Soul Powers. As for me, through the Lord of the Four Supremes, I have no choice but to train up my four Primordial Soul Powers.

“Of course, with my Divine Will, any of my four Primordial Soul Powers can transform into a human-based Primordial Soul Power that resembles me if I wished for it.”

Just as Zhou Donghuang was thinking these thoughts, in the skies, the four Primordial Soul Powers vibrated violently and quickly morphed into four human-based figures, which were carbon copies of Zhou Donghuang.

Furthermore, the aura that each Zhou Donghuang lookalike gave off was unique, and they belonged to the four different Primordial Soul Powers.

“With my abilities now… as long as one is below the Divine Transformation stage, then I will be able to kill them. I would even be able to kill some weaker adepts of the ultimate Primordial Soul stage!”

After gaining this insight, Zhou Donghuang felt that he had become more familiar with his new powers.

This could be said to be Mo Ningsang’s work.

“I really owe her too much.”

Zhou Donghuang sighed silently to himself before collecting his thoughts. He collected the spirit drugs that that were in a pile, which had manifested from the old Spirit energy of the cave. Mo Ningsang was right to say that these spirit drugs would be useful to him.

They were all spirit drugs that could be used to create the core drugs that Divine Transformation adepts needed.

“Valley Head is still waiting outside.”

After retrieving the spirit drugs, Zhou Donghuang suddenly remembered He Jin, who had traveled to this planet with him. “Since Mo Ningsang has left, I’m a.s.suming that Valley Head is no longer trapped and under her control.”

As Zhou Donghuang flew out of the waterfall, he realized that He Jin was floating in the skies nearby, and he had on a grave expression as if he expected enemies to attack him at any moment.

He Jin’s grave expression disappeared only after seeing Zhou Donghuang emerge. He asked Zhou Donghuang with a face of bewilderment, “Donghuang, you actually emerged from behind the waterfall? Is there a powerful being back there?

“Even without seeing it physically, I could sense the power coming from within. It trapped me and bound me against my will.

“Were you also hurt by it?”

Although the pressure and control over his body had since disappeared, before understanding what had happened, He Jin was still cautious and hadn’t moved around much.

He had waited patiently until Zhou Donghuang had emerged.

“No.”

Zhou Donghuang shook his head. “She has already left.”

“Left?”

Zhou Donghuang’s words caused He Jin to take a long and deep sigh of relief. “That’s good, that’s good…”

If he could, he would really like to avoid a repet.i.tion of the situation that had just happened.

It was lucky that the other party had had no intention to kill him. If not, he would have died a few hundred times over at this point.

“Valley Head, this time, after following you back to the Tielao planet, I plan to leave directly and not return to the sect… Do help me pa.s.s on this message to Third Senior Sister and Da Zhuang,” Zhou Donghuang said to He Jin.

With his powers now, he was able to take on a lot of tasks that were impossible in the past.

In the future, he would be extremely busy.

“Noted,” He Jin replied.

On the journey back, although He Jin was extremely curious as to what Zhou Donghuang had experienced back on the Guiyao planet, he did not ask. He understood that everyone had their own secrets. The fact that Zhou Donghuang had not shared anything meant that it was rather inconvenient for him to ask.

However, when Zhou Donghuang next revealed his training stage, it shocked He Jin.

“Late… late Primordial Soul stage!?”

One had to remember that when they had arrived here, Zhou Donghuang was only an early Primordial Soul adept. Only a short period of time had pa.s.sed, and yet, he had managed to enter the late Primordial Soul stage!?

“It seems as though the large amount of lost Spirit energy on the Guiyao planet was probably related to Zhou Donghuang’s upgrading of powers… That powerful being at the Separating Divinity stage most likely took action and helped Zhou Donghuang out.”

Now, it was not hard for He Jin to guess this point as under normal circ.u.mstances, no matter how ingenious and talented Zhou Donghuang was, it would be impossible for him to surpa.s.s two stages at the same time.

After returning to the Tielao planet, where the Lightning Sword Sect was located, and bidding farewell to He Jin, Zhou Donghuang went to the galaxy teleporter within the Lightning Sword Sect’s land and used it to take his leave.

Just as Zhou Donghuang was leaving, a figure appeared near the galaxy teleporter.

“It seems as though Zhou Donghuang did not die… This means that Seventh Prince’s guess was correct, and our three a.s.sa.s.sins failed in their mission!

“However… With He Jin’s powers alone, how was it possible that he could attack the three a.s.sa.s.sins?”

The scene of Zhou Donghuang and He Jin arriving at the sect was seen by this figure as well. He knew that He Jin had traveled out with Zhou Donghuang and that the loss of the three a.s.sa.s.sins of the Qi Dynasty was most likely due to this duo.

However, He Jin’s powers now seemed suspicious.

“Forget it, I won’t trouble myself over this matter… After all, I am simply a messenger! I’ll just report my findings to Seventh Prince.”

…

On a faraway planet, the seventh prince of the Qi Dynasty was anxiously waiting for any updates.

Chu Weimo and his two companions were in pursuit of the Lightning Sword Sect disciple, Zhou Donghuang, and had not yet returned. The seventh prince had sensed that something was probably amiss, so he had sent out a second spy to the Lightning Sword Sect and tasked him with following Zhou Donghuang’s movements carefully.

“Seventh Prince.” Outside, a voice sounded out.

“The spy from the Lightning Sword Sect is here with news.”

“Finally, some updates.”

Although Qi Feng had on an uncertain expression, he felt more concern in his heart. Nevertheless, he walked out to hear the news personally.

After hearing the report by the spy, although he had been somewhat prepared for bad news, he could not help but freeze in shock.

“Zhou Donghuang managed to escape completely unscathed? Furthermore, he returned to the Lightning Sword Sect with the Autumn Valley Head, He Jin?”

He had never imagined that such an ending would be possible.

If it had been the combined counter-attack of the two Divine Transformation adepts of the Lightning Sword Sect, such an ending would be more probable.

But He Jin?

This Autumn Valley Head of the Lightning Sword Sect had never really been significant in Qi Feng’s eyes.

In the Hengliu galaxy, those who had not entered the Divine Transformation stage were all not worthy of Qi Feng’s attention.

“Have the other two Divine Transformation adepts of the Lightning Sword Sect left the grounds of the sect?” Qi Feng asked in a low voice.

“According to my spies, from the time Zhou Donghuang left the Lightning Sword Sect until he returned, the two Divine Transformation adepts had not left the sect at all,” thy spy came forth reported.

Hearing this, Qi Feng was silent for a long time before the corners of his mouth turned up, and his eyes narrowed slightly. “Interesting, interesting… It seems as though the Autumn Valley Head of the Lightning Sword Sect, He Jin, might have entered the Divine Transformation stage.

“Even so… With our planned ambush, it is difficult to imagine how he managed to kill the trio from our Qi Dynasty.

“Unless, he had external help. However, that is extremely unlikely,” Qi Feng uttered his suspicions out loud.

“Seventh Prince.”

At this point, the spy spoke again. “I’ve received news on the destination Zhou Donghuang was headed for when he utilized the galaxy teleporter not long ago.”

“That’s not a concern of ours.” Qi Feng returned to his neutral expression and spoke casually.

“As long as he is not stupid, he would first choose to go to any random place to take a stroll and conceal his true destination before making his way to where he truly intended to go… Furthermore, even if he really went to the place shown by the galaxy teleporter, finding him would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

“Nevertheless, we cannot simply let this incident go.

“We shall first kill He Jin. That may lure Zhou Donghuang out of hiding as it would be on his conscience to not save his own Valley Head.”
