Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
“Su Mo, it has been 2 years, Supreme Being Zi Xiao has returned!”
Ling Chang’s soft yet gentle voice suddenly rang in Su Mo’s ears.
“He has returned?” As soon as he heard that, Sun Mo’s heart filled with joy instantaneously.
After waiting for two years, Supreme Being Zi Xiao had finally come back.
Immediately, he stopped his cultivation, left the Holy Sword Mountain and came to the front of Ling Chang Palace once again.
Just as Su Mo arrived before the palace, Ling Chang came out of the palace too.
“Let’s go, I’ll bring you to visit Supreme Being Zi Xiao!” Ling Chang greeted Su Mo as she headed out of Ling Chang Sword Palace while Su Mo quickly tailed behind.
“Greetings Palace Master!”
“Greetings Palace Master!”
.
Along the way, Ling Chang’s disciples all greeted and bowed to her one after another.
Even though some of them had mastered greater cultivation ranks, far beyond Ling Chang’s, they still greeted her respectfully.
This was because the existence of Ling Chang Sword Palace was solely attributed to Ling Chang, thus attaining absolute respect from all.
Numerous highly skilled disciples and even palace officials were all taught under Ling Chang’s mentors.h.i.+p. As such, even the greatest and most powerful Rank 9 True G.o.ds esteemed her and dare not show the slightest disrespect to Ling Chang.
No one would look down on her for her unrecovered cultivation rank.
Most importantly, she was Ultimate Supreme Being Palace Master’s direct disciple and no one would dare to deprecate her.
Ling Chang led Su Mo out of Ling Chang Sword Palace and soon, they arrived at Zi Xiao Sword Palace.
At Zi Xiao Sword Palace, it was evident that the palace was more extravagant and had more disciples compared to Ling Chang Sword Palace.
With zero obstructions from anyone on the way, Ling Chang and Su Mo made it to a huge palace. The palace was impressive and luxuriously decorated, giving an incomparably majestic feel to it.
“Zi Xiao!” Ling Chang lightly called out from the entrance of the hall.
Shortly, the gate opened, and a man wearing a purple s.h.i.+rt stood behind it.
The man looked to be around his late twenties, and his build was big and tall. He had big eyes and handsome features, making him look attractive despite having a resolute look on his face.
Clad in a long purple robe, he simply stood there, yet he gave off a certain unique aura.
“Ling Chang, why are you here?” The man smiled, only focusing his eyes at Ling Chang.
“Zi Xiao, I have some matters for you!” Ling Chang replied in a deep voice.
“Haha, come on in!” Zi Xiao laughed lightly, as he gestured for Ling Chang to come in to the palace.
All this while, he did not notice Su Mo at all and only looked at Ling Chang.
Ling Chang nodded and entered the palace, while Su Mo followed closely behind.
As they went in, they entered a hall right in the middle of the palace and without even finding a place to sit down for a talk, Ling Chang wasted no time in making clear her intentions for his visit.
“Zi Xiao, there’s something that I need your help with!” Ling Chang said in a deep tone.
“What is it that has made you come down all the way here personally?” Zi Xiao smiled and walked to Ling Chang with a curious expression in his eyes.
“I need you to help me save someone,” Ling Chang answered softly, hinting to Su Mo.
Su Mo took the cue, and with a mental thought, Qian Xunyue’s coffin appeared in the middle of the hall.
“Zi Xiao, please help me revive her!” Ling Chang requested in a low voice as she looked at Qian Xun Yue in the coffin.
Zi Xiao approached the coffin and carefully looked at Qian Xunyue without opening the coffin. Qian Xunyue’s beauty surprised him but Zi Xiao shook his head.
“Ling Chang, I can’t save her!” Supreme Being Zi Xiao said.
Upon hearing that, both Su Mo and Ling Chang’s faces fell. Was there really no way to revive her?
“Why not?”
“There’s too much to sacrifice in order to revive her!” he said, shaking his head again.
Ling Chang stayed silent, internalising his words. So Qian Xunyue could be saved, but the price to pay was high.
“Zi Xiao Palace Master, please, as long as you can save her, I will do anything to repay you!” Su Mo immediately bowed before Supreme Being ZI Xiao.
Since Supreme Being Zi Xiao had the capabilities to revive her, Su Mo had to get him to render his help as Qian Xunyue couldn’t last any longer.
“For such a dishonest person as you, how dare you make such a request to ask for my help?” His expression darkened as he glanced over at Su Mo for the first time.
Although he did not take a good look at Su Mo directly, with his cultivation skills, he could see through Su Mo’s disguise. He was hiding his real form.
However, since Ling Chang and Su Mo came to find him together and he did not know their exact relations.h.i.+p with each other, he decided not to question Su Mo about it.
“I am Qin Yun and I met Master Zi Xiao previously.” Su Mo bowed and cupped his fists at Zi Xiao.
As he spoke, Su Mo ceased the effect of the Heaven Illusionary Pill and he slowly changed back to his original form.
After a moment of silence, Supreme Being Zi Xiao asked, “Qin Yun, is the lady in the coffin your lover?”
“Yes!” Su Mo nodded fervently. Since Qian Xunyue and he were lovers, it was not a wrong a.s.sumption by Zi Xiao.
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, Ling Chang’s eyes showed a hint of confusion. She might not be the best in many areas, but she did have a sharp memory. She could not help but feel slightly uncomfortable at Su Mo’s words.
Supreme Being Zi Xiao nodded, “Qin Yun, I can sympathise that you want to save your partner, but you are too weak, you can’t possibly repay me.”
“I…”
It was true that he was unable to repay Supreme Being Zi Xiao at this moment, but it did not mean that he could not do so in future.
“Zi Xiao, please, I’m begging you, I’ll owe you a favour!” Ling Chang helped out because she knew that without her pleading, there was no way that Supreme Being Zi Xiao would agree to help Su Mo.
Seeing Ling Chang’s reaction, Supreme Being Zi Xiao kept silent and paced back and forth, his hands tucked behind his back.
Shortly after, Supreme Being Zi Xiao sat in his main seat in the hall and fixed his gaze on Ling Chang.
“Ling Chang, the cultivation standard of this lady is low, If I were to save her, I would be breaking the rules and seeking for punishment myself!” Supreme Being Zi Xiao said sternly.
“How can I compensate you? I will do my best!” Ling Chang said in a low voice. She too hoped that Qian Xunyue could be saved so that she could just take this load off her mind too.
“Compensation… That’ll work too!” Supreme Being Zi Xiao nodded.
“My cultivation standard is equivalent to a Middle-rank Supreme Being’s currently and it has stagnated at this level for ages. If you are willing to help me have a breakthrough, I shall help revive this lady!”
“How can I a.s.sist you? I can’t.” Ling Chang frowned at his request. It was too much for her to fulfill.
Even if it was a request made during her peak in her past life, she would not have been able to help, much less now that she was in this state.
“No, you can. Since you possess a Pure Yin Body, if you are willing to help me, I can double the chances of her revival!” Supreme Being Zi Xiao looked at Ling Chang with keen sparkling eyes, his face filled with antic.i.p.ation.
“You … !” At that moment, her heart quaked as it dawned upon her.
Supreme Being Zi Xiao was intending to make use of this opportunity to reach the Completion Realm by cultivating through s.e.x with her.
Ling Chang was stunned for a moment and she stared at Supreme Being Zi Xiao blankly.
She had known him for 10,000 years, had been guided under the same mentor and grew up together in Ultimate Supreme Being Palace.
The two had been friends for over hundreds of thousands of years and despite having past feelings for each other, they had never crossed the line beyond pure affection as a brother and a sister towards each other respectively.
As a man whom Ling Chang had deep respect and admiration for, how could he take advantage of the situation to coerce her into cultivating through s.e.x?
Su Mo’s face immediately darkened. How could Supreme Being Zi Xiao propose such an idea? To take advantage of this matter and force Ling Chang to have s.e.x with him in the name of cultivation?
