The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 783 - 256: The Divine Beast Corpse Fallen Above the Forbidden Zone
Zhou Qing pondered silently, a glint of eagerness sparkling in his eyes.
If he could acquire the remaining five top-grade Wood Attribute Spirit Stones, he might just be able to muster the second Phoenix Dao Pattern in one go.
After some contemplation, Zhou Qing swiftly set everything up meticulously, and then let his consciousness sink into the situation.
Sure enough, Zone 6 displayed a deep blue, clearly indicating it hadn't come out yet. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Zhou Qing was about to step in when a sudden cough resounded loudly from the side.
Looking towards the sound, Zhou Qing discovered that the seventh purple sphere had just come online at this moment.
This guy, could he have been secretly watching me the whole time?
"Old friend, I really liked the gift you sent last time, do you have more?" Sikong Yan asked with a broad smile.
Zhou Qing obviously knew what he meant by "gift," merely the eight drops of Heart's Blood the Phecda Sect had acquired through unknown means.
Last time, he placed the drop from Master Xuanji's hand at the Blood Rock Mine for him to retrieve, and it seemed he had it now.
"Are you talking about the remaining seven drops?" Zhou Qing replied nonchalantly.
Sikong Yan chuckled dryly and said, "Old friend, you truly understand me deeply. I'm really curious about just how much more you know about me?"
Zhou Qing smiled slightly and said, "Take a guess!"
"I can't possibly guess, and currently, I'm in the open while you're in the shadows. Besides, you once said that we should leave well enough alone and not pry into each other's secrets!" Sikong Yan responded helplessly.
Zhou Qing straightened his expression and said, "Naturally, that would be best, but you waited specifically for me to come online this time, I doubt it's just for a chat."
Sikong Yan's expression turned serious, suddenly lowering his voice, appearing sneaky, "Of course not, I came to tell you, I killed someone."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing's eyes narrowed slightly and he asked instinctively, "Who did you kill?"
A faint, almost undetectable excitement flashed in Sikong Yan's eyes as he said, "The real orchestrator behind the Five Sects War, the fifth prince of the Holy Martial Dynasty, Xuanyuan Fengtai!"
Zhou Qing: "..."
"But rest assured, I handled the aftermath quite cleanly, no one will suspect me, and this secret, I've only told you!" Sikong Yan said with a hint of pride in his voice.
Zhou Qing furrowed his brows tightly, internally remarking: What a lunatic!
"In a few days, the current Emperor might come personally, what do you think I should do? I'm a bit nervous now!" Sikong Yan's voice carried a trace of anxiety.
Zhou Qing was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to describe him, so he could only respond irritably, "If you're nervous, you might as well tell everyone that you're the one who killed him."
Sikong Yan immediately shook his head repeatedly and said, "That's not an option, I'm not stupid."
Zhou Qing: "..."
"Alright, Zone 6 has come out, I have to go figure out a solution. You'd better be careful, if someone investigates and uses the Soul Search method, revealing me would be disastrous!"
After saying this, Sikong Yan hurriedly logged out.
"Crazy or a fool!" Zhou Qing muttered under his breath, looking at the now vanished purple sphere.
At this moment, the blue sphere of Zone 6 slowly manifested, with the golden words "Truly a Destined Person" still hovering above.
"Number One, you're finally here!" Shen Hanyi greeted warmly.
Although everyone's voice was hard to distinguish in terms of gender or age, Zhou Qing could sense the joy in number six's words.
It seemed that the Transforming Divine Medicine had worked!
At this moment, Zhou Qing, in the eyes of six and seven, was still shrouded in mystery, which made him feel slightly smug.
"Looks like your brother is fine?" Zhou Qing asked directly.
To Zhou Qing's question, Shen Hanyi showed no surprise.
After all, number one was almost fully aware of her situation, and her brother's curse wasn't a secret either.
"He's already slowly recovering, thank you!" Shen Hanyi expressed her gratitude sincerely.
Of course, her gratitude originated from the Ice Glaze Lingque Mushroom that Zhou Qing found for her in the forbidden zone.
"It's a small matter, just a Transforming Divine Medicine, nothing too rare!" Zhou Qing boasted shamelessly.
Hearing this, Shen Hanyi couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth slightly.
Though in the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace, everyone strived to hide their strengths and secrets, number one's words were truly exaggerated.
However, she had to admit that number one indeed had some ability.
But who is he really?
Even though number one often referred to himself as an old fellow, it could very well be a façade.
"Why don't you come over for a visit?" Shen Hanyi unexpectedly invited.
Zhou Qing curved his lips, teasingly asked, "Daytime or nighttime?"
Shen Hanyi: "..."
"Just kidding, actually, it's good that you talk a bit more, instead of always being so cold and distant!"
Zhou Qing's lips curled up, smiling mischievously.
Shen Hanyi took a light breath and slowly said, "Since you're aware of everything about me, you should know what situation my clan is in. As for my demeanor, it's just a habit of self-protection."
After hearing this, Zhou Qing seemed to vaguely have an inkling of something.
It seems the sect that number six belongs to is quite extraordinary.
A level-four Array Master, late-stage Spirit Severing Realm, yet still needs to be cautious?
Is the difference between the fifth-level Cultivation Country and the sixth-level Cultivation Country really that vast?
It can compel such a strong cultivator to proceed so carefully.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this, I just have some doubts and hope you can clarify." Shen Hanyi paused, and seeing Zhou Qing not responding, continued speaking.
