“Mom, is that you?”
Tian Ling Er asked subconsciously, causing the lady in green mourned.
“I am your aunt, Nie Qing Qing.” The lady in green replied as she wiped the filth of Tian Ling Er’s face.
Tian Xing Zi who stood in front also mourned.
“Ling Er, eat the pill first, we will be reaching the ravine soon.” Tian Xing Zi took out the medicinal pellet again.
This time, Tian Ling Er did not resist and swallowed the pill, while gazing in the distance, refusing to close her eyes and rest as if she chose to rest her for a moment, it will delay her in see Zhong Shan sooner.
Seeing how his daughter acted, Tian Xing Zi could only place his hands on her back, aiding Tian Ling Er to refine the pellet.
Tian Ling Er’s body quickly became much better.
It goes without saying that when Tian Ling Er met her aunt, she should be extremely happy. However, she could not bring herself to be happy at all. Furthermore, since it was not her mother, it could not stimulate her heart’s longing at all, and the most important matter was still Zhong Shan. Zhong Shan, nothing bad must happen to you!
Tian Ling Er’s tears were almost dried, unconsciously allowing Nie Qing Qing to wipe her face continuously.
Seeing how Tian Ling Er acted, Tian Xing Zi’s heart ached even more.

It was already the eighth day, Zhong Shan’s body was immersed with electricity as he continued to endure it.
Zhong Shan kept on gritting his teeth. Eight days, not even consuming anything for eight days, even if one had eaten daily, ordinary people definitely could not endure this large amount of electricity coursing through one’s body.
Even so, Zhong Shan could still feel his Zhen Qi expectedly having some changes to it, it was getting purified unceasingly, although the quant.i.ty of his Zhen Qi was getting smaller. However, with just that small quant.i.ty of Zhen Qi, it was a lot purer than before.
It was truly finding fortune within disasters and misfortunes, even though Zhong Shan had to endure such torture, as long as he could endure it, there will certainly be some unthinkable benefits.
However, how long must he wait? It was already the eighth day, Zhong Shan’s eyelid was starting to close, he was already hallucinating and right at the moment where he was about to shut his eyes, Zhong Shan’s hallucination made him recalled some things.
“Old Master, today’s weather is perfect, it has been a while since we went to Lake Cui. This time, I have to catch a large crab to make c.r.a.p soup for you.”
“Great, catch a big one, this time we will be going as a family, go and call your brother, let us go together.”
“En, I’ll call second brother, third brother is not around, if not he will definitely have some great method to catch crabs.”
“Ha ha, Ha ha, Old Master, Hurry over here, there is a big crab here, a big one!”
“Coming, Kun Er wait for me, I’ll get a big net.”
As Zhong Shan was fantasying, a beautiful lady kept appearing in his fantasy. It was Zhong Shan’s first wife, Kun Er. In this moment, Zhong Shan was about to give up as he exposed a slight smile.
As this moment, his hallucinations started to change.
At the lakeside, Kun Er was pulling onto her sleeves as she used a chopstick to stab at the large crab while Zhong Shan came running from a distance.
Suddenly a group of people appeared between the two of them.
“Ha ha, I have found it, a female born in the year of Yin, the day of Yin and the time of Yin.” A male wearing a gold gown said. The male has a silt on his forehead as if there was a third eye hidden within the silt on his forehead.
Only to witness the person extending his arms towards Kun Er and grabbing her.
“Bang~~”
The sky was raining blood as the delicate body of Kun Er exploded, her blood and flesh rained down from the heavens. She exploded due to the energy released by the guy in gold. Then, a blue-like figure of Kun Er appeared and was quickly grabbed by the guy in gold and sent into a black banner.
“Noo~~:
Zhong Shan who was getting tortured by the lightning, opened his eyes widely with a trace of inextinguishable hatred as he roared loudly.
At this moment, the veins on Zhong Shan was about to burst, and he continue to revolve his small remaining quant.i.ty of Zhen Qi while trying to rely on his willpower to absorb the lightning.
“I cannot die, I cannot die, Crown prince Lei Tian, Kun Er, Kun Er, I still have not obtained my revenge. ”
Zhong Shan’ eyes were bloodshot as his body continued to tremble and shake as he endured the lightning solely with his willpower.
I cannot die!
I cannot die!
This was the only intention Zhong Shan had.
“Zhong Shan ~~~”
As Zhong Shan’s body was about to breakdown, Tian Ling Er loud cry travelled from above the ravine.
As he saw a large Green Luan carrying a group of people on its back flying over quickly, Zhong Shan let out a relived smile.
Weng!
Zhong Shan finally closed his eyes and at the final moment, he lost conscious and he closed his eyes.
And at this moment, Tian Xing Zi pulled Zhong Shan up with a flick of his hands.
“Zhong Shan~~”
Tian Ling Er wailed as she threw herself over at Zhong Shan whose body still had some lightning flowing within.
Although Zhong Shan had been separated from the Thunder Scorpion’s egg, Zhong Shan’s body still had some lightning flickering about, but Tian Ling Er did not care about it and used all her strength to hug Zhong Shan.
Tian Xing Zi grabbed onto Zhong Shan’s arms and pressed down with his hands, immediately dispersing the residual lightning.
“He is fine, he only fainted and will be better after a few days.” Tian Xing Zi quickly consoled Tian Ling Er.
“Zhong Shan is okay?” Tian Ling Er asked happily while looking at Tian Xing Zi with joyful tears.
“Yes, He will be all right.” Tian Xing Zi nodded.
Meanwhile, after losing Zhong Shan, lightning began to spill out from the Thunder Scorpion Egg.
Soon, A larger Thunder Scorpion that the one previously came crawling out and saw its dead companion and quickly vent out its rage, with its large tail directed towards Nie Qing Qing.
“Yin~~”
The Green Luan cried out with a trace of killing intent.
The huge Green Luan directed its claws towards the Scorpion’s tail and stepping on it viciously, the Green Luan’s claws emitted a faint green glow and prevented the Scorpion from moving its tail.
The Green Luan’s head then pecked towards the Scorpion.
“Dou, Dou, Dou”
It was as if the lightning given off by the scorpion was ineffective towards the Green Luan, as the beak of the Green Luan gave off a green light and pecked the scorpion a few times, and the lightning on the scorpion’s body began to dispersed slowly.
Dead, the scorpion had met its natural nemsis, Xuan Xing Zi then collected the Thunder Scorpion’s needle.
“Qing Er, let us return.” Nie Qing Qing said.
“Ok.” The Green Luan nodded and replied as it took out the Thunder Scorpion’s nie dan and swallowed it.
As for the dead female Thunder Scorpion, it did not care about it, and spread its wings, carrying them back to Kaiyang School.
Meanwhile Tian Ling Er kept holding onto Zhong Shan’s hands refusing to let go. Tian Xing Zi feed Zhong Shan a medicinal pellet and waited for Zhong Shan to regain conscious.
While Zhong Shan had fainted, within the Great Kun Xuan City Zhong Mansion, Zhong Shan’s shadow also abruptly vanished.
The shadow seemingly merged with the main body in the far distance and since the main body has fainted and could not maintain its awareness, the shadow also vanished, only when the main body regain its consciousness, then the shadow could appear again.
At this moment, while Zhong Shan was fainted, outside Xuan City was a scenery filled with countless swords and bows.
An army of eighty thousand surrounded the city walls.
Great Kun Emperor, Su Zheng De was personally leading the army.
An army of eighty thousand surrounded the city, blocking the path into the city, anybody was permitted to leave the city, but not enter it.
At an army camp located in the south.
In the biggest tent, there were twelve people present.
One person sat on the seat of honor while the other eleven sat below, even the Emperor Su Zheng De wearing the dragon robe was seated below, without a trace of grievance as he looked towards the person sitting at the highest seat.
“Ancestor, there are two Xian Tian experts from the Zhao, Qian, Sun and Li family, while the royal family have me, my father and Eunuch Wei resulting in a total of eleven Xian Tian experts, furthermore with the Ancestor at Xian Tian pinnacle, we can surely bring Xuan City down.” Su Zheng De said.
Seating at the highest position was the Royal family’s Ancestor who entered an immortal sect to cultivate.
“Based on the previous attempt, we still underestimate Zhong Shan, so what if we have twelve Xian Tian experts here, weren’t there the heads of the four-great family with their ancestor the previous time? They did not manage to return when they left?” The Ancestor said.
“Ancestor, there was some outside help previously, there seemed to be a guy called Zhao Suo Xiang and a lady in red. However, both of them are not in the Zhong Mansion.
Currently, there are only Zhong Shan’s foster son.” Su Zheng De said.
“Zheng De, you are the Emperor now, what do think we should do?” The Ancestor replied.
“Thee, I think that we as Xian Tian experts should proceed to the city wall, break down its gate and let the army stormed into the Zhong Mansion, and annihilate the Zhong Mansion in one move.” Su Zheng De replied hurriedly as he quickly changes his usual habits of using “Thee” to “I”.
The group nodded in agreement as they heard Su Zheng De’s words, while a person beside Su Zheng De was shaking his head.
“Lian Xian, you are Zheng De’s father and have come into contact with Zhong Shan, do you feel that his method will not work?” The Ancestor questioned the person standing in front of Su Zheng De.
The person sitting there did not exposed any anger, shaking his head and replied, “Third Grandfather, I feel that this method will not work. Zhong Shan, I understand him greatly. This Xuan City have already been fortified into an impenetrable fortress. Do all of you not see the city walls have all increased in heights?”
“So what?” A person in the corner asked. No matter how high the city walls were, how could it possibly stop a bunch of Xian Tian experts?
“I guessed that at this moment, the four walls should have several Eight Ox Crossbow arranged and unless all of us charged towards the same direction, with somebody willingly to sacrifice himself to help the others end the city.” Su Lian Xian frowned as he replied.
Eight Ox Crossbow? The group of experts trembled. For this type of powerful siege weapon, the group had no way to defend against it, and especially when they were soaring in the sky to enter the city, it would be certain death if the Eight Ox Crossbow’s arrows targeted them.
Furthermore, according to the previous news, the heads of the four great families and their ancestor died to the Eight Ox Crossbow.
