2744 Zhou Shu Qiu AttacksDuan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened when he saw the person who had called out to him. The woman in front of him was the most beautiful woman he had seen since ascending to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, apart from Huan’er and Murong Bing.The woman wore a pale green dress. Her eyebrows were dark and defined, she had almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose, a small mouth, and an almost perfect face outline. She was like an exquisite artwork that gave people a pleasant feeling when they looked at her.

Duan Ling Tian was certain this was their first meeting. However, he was familiar with the other figure standing next to the woman. It was none other than Zhou Shu Dong, the fourth miss of the Zhou clan. He was slightly startled when he saw that there was no resentment in her eyes. Instead, a hint of wariness and fear could be seen in her eyes as though she regarded him as a terrifying beast.

“Third Miss Zhou!” Long Fei Yun’s voice rang in the air.

That was how Duan Ling Tian discovered the beautiful woman before him was Zhou Shu Qiu, the third miss of the Zhou clan and Zhou Shu Dong’s elder sister. He had heard Long Fei Yun spoke about Zhou Shu Qiu half a year ago. He knew she was the last disciple of the former Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Sect and the junior sister of the current sect leader.

Although Long Fei Yun knew Zhou Shu Qiu was here for Duan Ling Tian, he still smiled and took the initiative to greet her. “Third Miss Zhou, I didn’t expect to meet you here. As far as I know, you’ve always been elusive with your whereabouts. It’s difficult to meet you ever since you joined the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect. It’s an honor to see you today.”

“Thirteenth prince,   you must be joking. It’s just that I stay with my master most of the time and rarely return to the capital,  ” Zhou Shu Qiu replied with a smile. Then,  she looked at Zhou Shu Dong who was standing next to her and said indifferently, “Dong’er, have you forgotten what I told you?”

When Zhou Shu Dong heard Zhou Shu Qiu’s words,  she trembled slightly before she stepped forward. She looked at Duan Ling Tian and bowed before she said, “I’m sorry. What happened previously is my fault.”

“Huh?” Although this was not Zhou Shu Dong’s first time apologizing to him,     Duan Ling Tian could clearly tell this time she was not reluctant in apologizing. This surprised him. After all,    when Long Xiang Yun,   the fourth prince,  asked her to apologize, she had done so reluctantly.

Without waiting for Duan Ling Tian to respond to Zhou Shu Dong’s apology,  Zhou Shu Qiu looked at him with a gleam in her beautiful eyes and asked, “Duan Ling Tian, can I speak to you privately?”

Long Fei Yun’s expression changed immediately. Before Duan Ling Tian could reply,    he looked at Zhou Shu Qiu and said in a low voice,   “Third Miss Zhou,  is there anything you can’t say here? If you think it’s too crowded here,  I can order Qiu Ling to make the crowd leave!” Then, he nodded at Qiu Ling.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In just an instant, an immense force surged out from Qiu Ling’s body. Like a gust of wind, it swept in all directions, pushing the people in the surroundings away without injuring them. Based on this, one could see the precise control he had over his power.

Just like that, the area that was once bustling with activity turned empty. The pedestrians who were pushed away were baffled. They had no idea what had just happened, and they felt fear lingered in their hearts.

“What’s happening?”

“What’s the situation?”

When they regained their senses, they looked at the small group of people standing on the empty street. It did not take long for them to identify that small group of people.

“I-isn’t that man the thirteenth prince?”

“That’s the fourth miss of the Zhou clan!” Someone recognized Zhou Shu Dong.

“I recognize the purple-clad young man and the veiled lady next to him! They were the ones who had a conflict with the fourth of the Zhou clan and killed a Zhou clan’s elder half a year ago!”

“You’re right, it’s them!”

“Is the fourth miss of the Zhou clan trying to take revenge now?”

“No, it doesn’t look like it. Earlier, I saw the fourth miss of the Zhou clan apologizing to the purple-clad young man under the instruction of the woman standing next to her.”

With these words, many people turned to look at Zhou Shu Qiu.

“Isn’t… Isn’t she the third miss of the Zhou clan?!” an observant old man exclaimed. Then, he muttered to himself, “Although the way she carried herself has changed, she still looks the same. There’s no doubt she’s the third miss of the Zhou clan!”

“What?!”

“Th… The third miss of the Zhou clan?!”

“Third Miss Zhou? The most beautiful woman in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom?!”

A commotion broke out as soon as the observant old man had spoken. After all, Zhou Shu Qiu was famous in the kingdom, and not many people had the chance to meet her. Not only was she the most beautiful woman in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, but she was highly talented as well, the first genius to appear in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom in 1,000 years. She was also a disciple of one of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland, the Thousand Spiders Sect. Moreover, she was also the last disciple of the former sect leader and the junior sister of the current sect leader.

While everyone’s eyes were trained on Zhou Shu Qiu, she glanced at Long Fei Yun indifferently and said, “Thirteenth prince, I have some words that I have to say to Duan Ling Tian in private. It’s inconvenient even for my sister to listen in to our conversation.”

Long Fei Yun’s expression was dark as he said in a low voice, “What if I don’t agree to that?”

Although Zhou Shu Qiu had the support of the Thousand Spiders Sect, the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was under the rule of the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. As a prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, he was protected by the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. Even people from the other two major Celestial Sects would not simply act against him without a proper reason. Moreover, he was not weak, and he also had the protection of a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial!

Swoosh!

Almost as soon as Long Fei Yun finished speaking, Qiu Ling who was standing at the back appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian with a flutter, shielding him.

“Not too long ago, I heard the thirteenth prince was searching for a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial to guard him. It seems like the rumor is true.” Zhou Shu Qiu narrowed her beautiful eyes when she saw Qiu Ling appearing between her and Duan Ling Tian.

Whoosh!

In just a blink of an eye, a strong Celestial Origin Energy surged out from Zhou Shu Qiu’s body, causing her green dress to flutter even though there was no wind. Even the dust beneath her feet was blown away.

Upon sensing the Celestial Origin Energy, Qiu Ling was shocked. “S-she’s also a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial?”

Zhou Shu Qiu scoffed before it seemed like she had vanished into thin air.

Bang!

In just a moment, Duan Ling Tian heard a thunderous noise. Then, he discovered Zhou Shu Qiu had reappeared in front of Qiu Ling. She lifted one of her hands that were clad in gloves that seemed to be woven from spider silk before she lightly swatted Qiu Ling. The energy from her hand instantly pressed Qiu Ling down like a mountain.

Meanwhile, Qiu Ling had also hastily taken out his Celestial Weapon to defend against the seemingly casual swat from Zhou Shu Qiu. He kneeled on one knee on the ground that was now cracked like a spider web.

“Get out of my way!” Zhou Shu Qiu said pointedly before anyone could respond. At the same time, the energy that swept out of her body swept toward Qiu Ling again.

Bang!

The energy landed on Qiu Ling and sent him flying back. He fell heavily to the ground in the distance, causing his blood to surge in his body. He looked extremely miserable at this moment.

At this moment, the crowd finally regained their senses.

“Did Third Miss Zhou say that the thirteenth prince’s subordinate is a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial?”

“I think so.”

“Heavens! The third miss of the Zhou clan easily subdued a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Doesn’t this mean she’s stronger than a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial?”

“There’s no doubt she’s stronger than a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. However, it doesn’t mean her cultivation base is higher.”

“Indeed. Even if both of them are heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, it’s no surprise if she’s stronger than that man. After all, not only is she a disciple of the Thousand Spiders Sect, but her master is the former sect leader and her senior brother is the current sect leader. It goes without saying the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities she mastered must be at the earth-grade!”

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘The Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland have earth-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities?’ His expression was dark. He knew the advantage he had with his Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities were getting smaller and smaller. Among the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities he had mastered, only the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, was heaven-grade. As for the Supreme Sword Dao Mental Cultivation Method, the Sovereign Heart Sword, which was similar to a Celestial Method, it was comparable to an earth-grade Celestial Method. Meanwhile, the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords was only an earth grade Divine Ability.
