Chapter 73: Lian Han Xing: Your Grandfather Is Back!

The little demoness stared, and cold sweat soaked her clothes in an instant. This drenched feeling was something you could never get from reading any amount of history. The Human Race looked gentle and easy to bully on the surface, but their core was terrifying. If anyone tried to test them while they were weak, the one ending up on the dinner table would be themselves.

Mu Rong Ya clapped once and looked to Zhou Tong as she asked: “Since we know Zhao Wu Tian has colluded with the Heavenly Devil, how do we deal with him next?”

Zhou Tong answered calmly: “We watch and wait. Let those troublemakers all stick their heads out, then we catch them in one net.”

Long Ling Yun frowned at once: “Is that all? Isn’t that too risky? They have already improved the Life Extinguishing Desolation Array. If they suddenly activate it, how do we fight back?”

Zhou Tong smiled: “Relax. I already set things up, and now we have a new insurance too. Ever since I learned that the Life Extinguishing Desolation Array was created by the Human Race, Zhao Wu Tian was doomed to make no real waves.”

Everyone looked at him, puzzled.

He asked in return: “Do you know the Right of Dominion?”

All shook their heads, except Holy Heart, whose eyes lit up as if she had heard of it.

She explained: “I’ve heard of it. It is a rule of the Heavenly Dao. What belongs to the God Clan is ruled by gods, what belongs to the Devil Race is ruled by devils, and what belongs to the Human Race is ruled by humans. For example, if an Array Arts was created by the Human Race, once the Right of Dominion is triggered, the control of that Array Arts goes completely to humans. Unless the Human Race is wiped out, even if only one human remains, the Right of Dominion will not fail.”

She added with caution: “But the conditions to trigger the Right of Dominion are very harsh. They say only an emperor of each race can control it freely, and at the very least, you need someone whose spiritual power has reached the Emperor Realm to act.”

She glanced at Zhou Tong. She admitted he was super strong, but she did not believe he had reached that level.

Zhou Tong did not explain. He only smiled.

Suddenly, light flashed at the center of his brow. His spiritual power had refilled. Enough time had passed since he last entered the No-Mind Realm to create the Sixfold World Breaking Sword canon. Now he could create again.

He sat cross-legged on the ground, forgot himself and his surroundings, and entered a profound state. Golden runes danced around him.

Zhang Chu Qiao tilted her head in doubt and leaned in to take a look, but the little demoness caught her sleeve and whispered: “Don’t disturb him.”

Little Yue’er’s eyes shone as she watched Zhou Tong closely. She wondered if this time a supreme art would appear that fit her cultivation.

…

Ling Xiao Empire, Jade Purity Sect’s base. The Phoenix Soar Inn was the most luxurious inn in the Imperial Capital, and the Jade Purity Sect had booked the whole place. When Mo Liu Su returned with Lian Han Xing, who was disguised as Zhou Tong, her three disciples all showed rich expressions.

Mo Liu Su spoke without room for debate: “From today on, Zhou Tong will once again enter my sect. You must get along as before and not make me worry.”

“Yes,” the three answered in unison, though their faces were very different.

Chen Ling’er was the happiest. She started forward to get close, but suddenly stopped. After a small inner struggle, she became very calm again, her look utterly cold.

Lian Han Xing’s eyes narrowed as she sniffed the air and said to herself: [This is the scent of the Love Gu.]

She gave Tang Qi a playful look. To flaunt such a thing in front of her was asking for death.

Xia Hong Xiu stepped up with a frosty face and tried to give a warning: “It’s good you are back. I hope you know your place from now on. We can overlook what happened before, but if you push your luck, don’t blame us for being rude.”

Lian Han Xing answered with a laugh: “And what are you supposed to be? Overlook the past, do you deserve that right? The one who should be doing the questioning is me. Don’t think I don’t know what you’ve done. You can fool others, but you can’t fool me.”

Xia Hong Xiu’s heart jumped. Since joining the sect, she had stolen more people’s fortune than she could count and had left many traces. No one had pursued it, but if they did, she would be finished. What she could not accept even more was that Zhou Tong dared talk back to her. Where did he get the courage?

Mo Liu Su cut it off with a cold shout: “Enough. I worked hard to save you, not so you could come here and make trouble.”

Her bias was obvious. Every time she recalled Zhou Tong talking back to her in the Heaven Prison, anger rose in her chest. She wanted an obedient Zhou Tong to block her calamity, not a thorn covered in hard bones.

Lian Han Xing pinched her weakness without mercy as she said with no respect: “Did I ask you to save me? If you are unwilling, you can send me back.”

“You…” Mo Liu Su was so angry her chest heaved.

Xia Hong Xiu fanned the flames at once: “What a big mouth. He really thinks he’s a treasure. Master, do as he wishes.”

But she was disappointed. Mo Liu Su only changed expression, then turned to Tang Qi and said: “Your senior brother is probably tired. Find him a room so he can have a good rest.”

With that, she flashed away into her room and vanished from sight.

Tang Qi’s face showed open provocation as he said: “Senior brother, come with me.”

He did not even bother to hide his disrespect. He led Lian Han Xing to a shabby storage room and announced with a smirk: “This is your room. You can live here for the next few days.”

Lian Han Xing did not play along. She turned at once and tossed back: “This place is for dogs. It suits you, but it doesn’t suit me.”

Tang Qi snapped: “Where are you going?”

She flicked her sleeve: “Back to where I came from. If this place won’t keep me, some other place will.”

Tang Qi’s face changed wildly. If Zhou Tong walked out now and Mo Liu Su blamed him, he would be in serious trouble.

He barked an order like he owned the place: “I order you to stop.”

Lian Han Xing did not even look at him and kept walking.

Tang Qi exploded in anger: “Trash, you think you still have the right to act tough?”

He lunged forward, grabbed Lian Han Xing, and raised his hand, ready to slap. He wanted to humiliate him completely so that “Zhou Tong” would never again lift his head.
