Chapter 171: Another Pretty Big Sister Appears

Zhang Chu Qiao snapped into a battle stance and said through clenched teeth: “Who is this guy?” If Zhou Tong had not held her back, she would have torn Duan Li apart already.

Zhou Tong grinned and said: “He is the Chief Enforcer’s disciple, a training maniac. No need to take him to heart.”

Duan Li laughed: “I like that description.” His spear sang and leveled at Zhou Tong again: “Make your move.”

Zhou Tong chuckled. [Exactly the same as in my previous life. Pity he later died in Tang Qi’s hands.] He waved a hand and said: “I am not fighting you. The secret realm will open any moment. Save your strength.”

Duan Li shook his head and said: “That is not up to you.” His spear moved like a dragon and thrust at Zhou Tong.

In the next heartbeat, Zhou Tong had already slipped behind him.

Duan Li clicked his tongue and said: “You dodge well, but what use is that? If I target this young miss instead, what will you do?” He turned his spear toward Zhang Chu Qiao and snapped the shaft like a whip.

He had held back seventy percent of his power, yet even this would crush most of the younger generation.

Zhou Tong called out: “Hold it.”

Duan Li answered: “No, unless you fight me.”

Zhou Tong snorted: “Idiot, I was not talking to you.”

A sharp crack rang out as the spear suddenly stopped. Duan Li’s face shifted in shock. The beautiful girl before him had pinched the spear between two fingers.

He stared and whispered: “Am I dreaming?”

The big senior sister tilted her head, smiled badly, and said: “Take one move from me and you will know if this is a dream.” Power of the Primordial One gathered in her palm into a beam, then she pressed forward.

The void trembled with a long hum. A beam of light shot through heaven and earth, fading into the far distance. Wherever it passed, things crumbled. It looked like the sky itself had been cut in two.

Duan Li swallowed and said: “Reincarnation Realm.” The light had passed two inches from his cheek. She had missed on purpose.

Zhou Tong walked up, patted his shoulder, and said: “Settled down now?”

Duan Li slapped his hand away and snapped: “Do not touch me.” His face flushed with anger. He glared and said: “I misread you. I thought you were a gallant protector. Turns out you just live off a woman.”

Zhou Tong only laughed and did not argue.

Just then, killing intent streaked in from far away, all of it locked onto Zhou Tong’s vital points. With a boom, the void burst and three figures dropped from the sky in Tempered Flesh Sect robes.

Zhou Tong stepped out of the dust with An Ran at his side, both unharmed, and said calmly: “Bugs love doing dirty tricks from the dark.”

Mad Dragon sneered at him and said: “Brat, you are the one who bragged about wiping out our sect in three days, right?”

Zhou Tong’s gaze turned cold as he said: “If there is no second Zhou Tong in this world, then yes, I am the one your grandfather warned you about. I did not think you would be so eager. It has not even been one full day, and you are already rushing to reincarnate.”

The three laughed wildly and released their full aura: all three at the Life and Death Seventh Layer. They took a triangular formation around Zhou Tong’s group. Lines of force linked them together, forming a small Array Arts net.

Zhou Tong nodded and said: “Not bad. With this, the three of you might resist a Reincarnation Realm for a short while.”

He asked lightly: “One apiece, how about it?”

Dark Phoenix scoffed and said: “Hah, little mongrel, still bragging at death’s door. Once we fuse, killing you will be easy.”

Mad Dragon added with a filthy grin: “He is right. Soon the Joyous Union Sect will be dust. Then our whole sect will taste that wanton master of yours.”

Zhou Tong’s eyes cooled and he said: “I changed my mind.” He raised a finger toward them and said: “I will not kill you. Since you love fusion, I will let you stay together forever.”

Sword power burst like a tide.

He intoned: “Sixfold World Breaking Sword, Heavenly Sword, World Ending Lotus.”

A brilliant lotus of sword light bloomed out of thin air. All three enemies blanched. Even Duan Li’s face grew serious. The strength inside that strike shocked him.

Zhou Tong’s voice rolled again: “With one thought the flower opens, I stand above the world.”

In an instant, the lotus split and multiplied into a rain of petals that fell on the three.

Two bangs rang out. Dark Phoenix and Earth Tiger exploded. Before their souls could scatter, Zhou Tong froze them with a Talisman art and snatched them into his hands.

Mad Dragon shrieked, terror breaking him: “Ahhh!” Not even in his worst dreams did he imagine this scene. He tried to flee, but Zhou Tong caught him by the throat. A Life and Death Third Layer killing three at the Seventh Layer took him less effort than drinking water.

Mad Dragon choked out: “Spare me. Do not kill me.”

Zhou Tong said: “I will not kill you. I will only keep you together forever.” He shoved the two captured souls into Mad Dragon’s body and punched in a thread of Chaotic Baleful Qi.

All at once, a chorus of miserable screams burst out.

Mad Dragon clutched his head and cried in a voice that was not his: “My foot hurts so much.” It was Dark Phoenix’s voice.

Then he grabbed at his pants and wailed in another voice: “My head is splitting.” That was Earth Tiger’s voice.

Zhou Tong slapped him away and said coldly: “Roll.” His eyes flashed with frost as he added: “Rot together in your own chaos.”

When he turned back, he found Duan Li eyeing him with full caution.

Zhou Tong asked: “What now?”

Duan Li stepped back with a hiss and aimed his spear tip at Zhou Tong’s throat, snapping: “You sick pervert, stay away from me.”

Before Zhou Tong could reply, countless lights rose at the edge of the sky. All the major sects were arriving.

A tender voice called: “Big brother.” Zhou Tong’s heart lifted. He saw a familiar figure.

It was the Upper Clarity Sect’s Shang Guan Wu Gou.

Guards followed behind the little girl. They bowed deeply and said with respect: “We greet Young Master Zhou Tong.” The Upper Clarity Sect owed Zhou Tong a great debt.

Zhou Tong drew a sharp breath when he saw her. [This is insane.] The girl’s realm had already reached the Unity of Heart. That was outrageous.

Shang Guan Wu Gou smiled sweetly and said: “Big brother, hug.” She hopped into Zhou Tong’s arms with joy. Then her bright eyes flicked to Zhang Chu Qiao and trembled.

She blinked and said: “Another pretty big sister appears.”

Zhou Tong laughed awkwardly. He let his spiritual sense sweep the crowd and found many unfamiliar faces. They did not look like people from the Eastern Continent. [Strange. Did folks from the Central Continent come too?]

Suddenly his gaze locked on two plain-looking men. One wore a gourd at his waist. The other carried a jade vial. The waist badges on them could not be ignored.

Zhou Tong’s eyes narrowed as he said to himself: [Central Continent Li Clan. Are they here for me?]
