Chapter 1216: Treated Like A Stranger
“Master is joking. Why do you envy me? Don’t you have your God Treasure…Oh?”
Zong Shou’s eyes squinted in deep thought. No wonder Lin Xuanshuang had time to see him. Was that God Treasure already completed?
Since the God Treasure was crafted, then why was there no Heaven Tribulation? Also, had Su Xiaoxiao came back to life?
Zong Shou turned his head in confusion and anticipation. Lin Xuanshuang smiled, not fazed by his words.
Zong Shou was helpless and could only lower his tone and ask sincerely, “Master, how is Xiaoxiao? Has she woken up?”
Only then did Lin Xuanshuang smile, “You should call her Junior Sister! To let her wake up, I really spent a lot of effort. Little disciple, how are you going to thank me?”
Zong Shou didn’t care about Lin Xuanshuang’s words. His eyes were attracted to a petite body who floated over.
She wore a white dress, her black hair was like a waterfall, her eyes were like a drawing. She was extremely beautiful. Who else could it be apart from Su Xiaoxiao?
Zong Shou nearly couldn’t recognize her. The current Su Xiaoxiao wasn’t as flirty as before. In fact, she looked ethereal. The clothing that she wore now wasn’t revealing at all. Instead, it covered her snow-white skin.
After she came, she acted like she didn’t see Zong Shou, just bowing towards Lin Xuanshuang, “Disciple greets Master, why did Master call me just now?”
Lin Xuanshuang gave out a satisfied laugh, she grinned as she raised her hands, “Go see your Senior Brother. If he doesn’t meet you, he won’t be at ease.”
“Senior Brother?”
Her brow rose up as she looked coldly at Zong Shou with a complicated expression, “Is this the person who took my chastity when I was unconscious?”
Zong Shou was stunned and totally speechless. He felt really frustrated but he couldn’t retort her at all. Lin Xuanshuang was also stunned, then she gave out a really joyous and gloating laugh.
※※※※
Only when she left with Lin Xuanshuang, Su Xiaoxiao treated Zong Shou extremely coldly. Although she called him Senior Brother, she treated him like a passerby.
Zong Shou felt sad and melancholic for some reason. For a few days, he felt really uneasy and emotional although he did know that her feelings for him were because of the Yuan Demon Seven Emotion Technique.
However, the moment her foundations changed, the technique was removed, Su Xiaoxiao’s attitude toward him totally changed. She was really cold and rejected him outright. The change was just too huge.
His face being lost was secondary. What he couldn’t forget was everything that happened in the Qin Emperor Tomb.
The person who was entangled with him in life and death now treated him like a stranger…
Chuxue looked on at the side with a complicated expression, her tone also became weird, “No wonder other people say that men are scum! When Su Xiaoxiao came to find you and loved you so much, you didn’t bother about her at all. Now that she woke up and stopped caring about you do you regret and keep thinking about her…”
Zong Shou’s lips curled, why did Xue’er’s tone sound like she was dissing him?
Zong Shou directly asked, “Who taught you to say that? Was it Yanran that demon?”
With how pure Xue’er was she definitely wouldn’t think to say those things to him.
Zong Shou grabbed her arm before she finished and pulled her into his embrace, directly kissing her lips. His tongue avoided her teeth and drilled in, tangling with hers.
Chuxue’s face heated up and she started panting. If not for her body being hugged by Zong Shou, with how soft and numb she felt she would have fallen to the ground.
A long while passed before she noticed that his hands were on her twin peaks, touching and squeezing before she finally came to her senses.
She pushed Zong Shou aside and ran out in a flustered manner.
Zong Shou shook his head. As expected, she still wasn’t ready. He laughed out loud, suppressing the sadness from before.
He thought to himself that since Su Xiaoxiao was prepared to forget about their relationship then he should just let her get what she wished for. Everything that happened before was a sad part of her life.
After going through Su Xiaoxiao’s matter, he pretty much placed everything down. He should have cherished the people around him and not wait till he regretted it.
Since the Celestial Slaying Gourd was completed, Zong Shou had one more job. He would spend some time to nurture the treasure, to be mentally connected to it to allow him to merge it into his Soul Ocean and let it become his Life Artifact. Only then could he fully show off the strength of this Celestial Slaying Gourd.
Each day that passed, the blood clouds seven worlds outside would become a little thicker, expanding outwards.
Zong Shou used his World Burning Blood Eyes to observe and noticed that the surrounding few worlds were affected by the blood clouds. Many new mutated beasts formed from the violent energy. Vengeful Energy gathered beneath the World Slaying Platform, so thick that it could take up a physical form.
Lu Wubing said that he could delay the time it took for it to form and the outcome was decent. For several days in a row, they pretty much stopped their work. Their following progress was also not as fast as before.
To maintain this World Slaying Platform to not let all their previous hard work go to waste, the Night Demon Race would kill a large number of living beings, using the vengeful powers to nourish the formation. The number of intelligent spirits that died only increased.
Zong Shou sighed. Although he didn’t bear to, he didn’t plan on stopping them at all. His sympathy for them didn’t reach a stage where he could risk lives for these outer region alien races. He also wouldn’t sacrifice the lives of millions of Great Gan elites and the billions of civilians under him.
He still continued to craft the Dragon Tooth Swords and Dragon Pellets, perfecting the Six God Defensive Knife.
Two years passed in a blink. Unknowingly, the number of Dragon Tooth Swords beside him increased to 420. There were also 432 Star Dao Seeds, four small cycles of heavens correlating with the four phenomenons. The materials were not only Instant Space Dragon Pellets. Zong Shou added in many beast pellets to increase the variation of the Three Thousand Star Falling.
The Saint Silver Demon Slaying Formation also had some success. With Zong Shou’s previous modifications, it was now at least four times stronger.
In other words, although he was only God Realm, with this formation buffing him, he was similar to Intermediate God Realm.
Everything progressed smoothly, only the Celestial Slaying Gourd’s connection with the World Slaying Platform got stronger day after day.
On the 94th day, a giant blood-colored blade formed on the stone platform.
Zong Shou came to his senses and sensed something. He knew that the battle to decide victory or defeat couldn’t be dragged on anymore.
