Chapter 2265: Luo Sha’s Dissatisfaction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhang Ruochen withdrew his palm slowly and let out a long breath. Then, he sat down cross-legged with the Godstone in his hand. He absorbed the divine Qi inside the Godstone and recovered the power that had been consumed in his body.

Lord Xia Yu was still sitting in the same place. Her blue feather robe was soaked in sweat. Her delicate and pale face was still wet with tears, and her delicate body was trembling slightly.

Guilt, self-blame, resentment, and all kinds of negative emotions that tortured her still filled her heart.

Zhang Ruochen cruelly tore open the memory that she did not want to recall the most. It was bloody and presented in front of her. Everything seemed to have happened just now.

Supreme Saint Yi Xuan and Gu Chenzi were very anxious. They wanted to know whether they had succeeded or failed?

However, they had never seen Lord Xia Yu so weak and sad. They did not dare to ask her.

This silence lasted until the Saint Qi in Zhang Ruochen’s body recovered. Then, he stood up again. He stared at the silent Lord Xia Yu and said, “I’ve already found the Shackle of Desire. Why are you still sitting there?”

Lord Xia Yu raised her pale face and looked at Zhang Ruochen’s tall and straight figure. At a certain moment, this figure overlapped with her dead brother.

Zhang Ruochen saw that she was staring at him. He said, “The hatred, self-blame, and guilt in your heart are too strong. It’s so difficult to break the desire. It will be very dangerous when you reach the Banshi Isshou Realm in the future. I advise you to put down some things when you should. Don’t keep yourself sealed inside…”

His voice came to an abrupt halt, and his eyes were a little misty.

Zhang Ruochen thought of himself in Lord Xia Yu’s shoes.

It was so difficult for Lord Xia Yu to find the Shackle of Desire. What about him? Would it be even harder for him? Would not his future path be even more dangerous?

Just like Chi Yao in the past, she was still unable to become a god. Was it the same?

Lord Xia Yu collected her emotions. She stood up and displayed her tall and beautiful figure. She pulled up her long hair and tied it back with the violet-gold phoenix hairpin. Her cold and noble temperament gradually resurfaced.

She stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “How do you think I should let go? How do I get out of this dilemma?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “There are some problems. You should look at it from another angle. Your parents, elder brother, and the divine ancestor did die tragically at the hands of Celestial Court’s cultivators. But how many people died at their hands? How many people lost their families and suffered the same fate as you?”

“It’s not your fault. It’s not the cultivators of Celestial Court. It’s war and killing.”

Lord Xia Yu said coldly, “You’d better not say the same thing. If the cultivators in Infernal Court heard you, you’ll be in big trouble. I’m grateful that you helped me find the Shackle of Desire. But you’ve peeked into my heart and know too many of my secrets. You’d better keep your mouth shut. If you say a word, I’ll kill you.”

Lord Xia Yu took a Fugue Pill and turned to leave.

Zhang Ruochen said with an emotionless face, “After the Celestial-hunting Festival if there’s a chance, you can come with me to the Battlefield of Merits. I’ll take you to see the other side of the war. Maybe it will help change your stubbornness and also be helpful for your future cultivation.”

“Zhang Ruochen, you’re too controlling. Stop trying to please me and do something that’s not your place. I’m not the Fairy Shadowless. If you wish to take me into the harem of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. I advise you to give up the idea as soon as possible so that you don’t get yourself into trouble,” said Lord Xia Yu.

Lord Xia Yu did not turn around. She walked out of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace and sat under the Sundial to cultivate.

“It seems that she has a misunderstanding about me. If I treat me a little better, does she think that I’m hitting on her?” said Zhang Ruochen as he stared at Supreme Supreme Saint Yi Xuan and Gu Chenzi.

Supreme Saint Yi Xuan said, “Most beautiful women have this problem. You’re also very good to Xueqi. You can’t possibly hit on Xueqi, right?”

Gu Chenzi said, “But women often say the opposite. If I was Lord Xia Yu and wanted to choose a husband, Zhang Ruochen would be one of the best candidates. Marrying Zhang Ruochen will have the backing of the Xue Jue Family in the Bloodysky Clan and her family will be in a much better position.”

“So she’s hinting at Zhang Ruochen to be more proactive?” Supreme Saint Yi Xuan said.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head with a smile, but he was on guard.

There was nothing wrong with taking Lord Xia Yu under his wing and being a member of his team in Infernal Court.

However, she must not misunderstand and think that he was trying to hit on her.

After experiencing so many things, Zhang Ruochen could do anything to achieve his goal. He did not mind being a wicked man and a murderer. There was no boundary between good and evil.

There was no absolute good or absolute evil in the world.

However, if he used emotions to achieve his goal, he would be backfired many times. He tried his best not to do so.

After helping Supreme Supreme Saint Yi Xuan and Gu Chenzi find their shackles, Zhang Ruochen separated the five Saint Souls again to comprehend the Precepts. His original body opened the paper that he had gotten from Pan Ruo to comprehend and analyze the Canon of Water’s mark.

A year later, Zhang Ruochen had fully analyzed the Canon of Water’s mark and successfully condensed the fourth-grade Heavenly Stream Saintwill of water.

However, he did not immediately merge the Heavenly Stream Saintwill into the Blood Sun Ten-tremors Saintwill.

According to the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, his understanding and application of the Blood Sun Ten-tremors Saintwill were too shallow. If he recklessly merged with the Heavenly Stream Saintwill, not only would it be dangerous, but the success rate would also be very low.

The more you understand the saintwill, the easier it is to merge.

Supreme Saint Xueqi, Supreme Supreme Saint Yi Xuan, and Gu Chenzi’s cultivation rose at a terrifying rate. Thanks to Zhang Ruochen’s help in finding the shackles and providing the Fugue Pills to allow them to break the shackles. As well as a large amount of divine blood to help increase cultivation and consolidate the Neverwither physique.

It only takes half a year for Supreme Saint Xueqi to break one shackle.

Supreme Saint Yi Xuan and Gu Chenzi needed a year to break through one shackle.

This did not mean that Supreme Saint Xueqi’s talent was higher than the two of them. It was just that both of them had broken through eighty shackles. The further they went, the more difficult it became, and the longer they took to break.

Three years later, Lord Xia Yu successfully broke through the hundredth shackle. A massive amount of blood-red aura surged out of her. Almost ten billion Precepts traveled through the heavens and earth.

Whoosh

Eight silver wings rushed out from her back.

Lightning flowed on the silver wings. They became extremely huge as if they had turned into eight silver clouds.

A new pair of silver wings grew out of the center of the eight silver wings. However, these silver wings were still half-real, like a chaotic fog of light.

“It broke off so quickly. It’s quite powerful.”

Zhang Ruochen awakened from his cultivation. He walked out of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace and stood on the steps. He pointed in the direction of Lord Xia Yu with his right hand.

Whoosh

The space around Lord Xia Yu began to stretch and distort.

Her body was pulled into a spatial bubble a hundred miles wide by Zhang Ruochen. Only then did the surrounding of Vastsea Manor calmed down.

Zhang Ruochen stared at the cultivators who were cultivating and said, “Stop looking and continue cultivating.”

Xue Chen, Xue Ningxiao, and the others did not continue cultivating. Instead, they stood up and stared in the direction of the spatial bubble. They were all amazed.

Lord Xia Yu was about to enter the completion of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. It was a big event. No matter how important the cultivation was, they did not want to miss this opportunity to witness it.

Zhang Ruochen ignored them and focused on Lord Xia Yu. He could not help but nod.

“There’s a huge difference between a Supreme Saint with ninety-nine severed shackles and a Supreme Saint with a hundred severed shackles. Lord Xia Yu’s cultivation almost doubled in an instant. It was still rising. The ninth and tenth silver wings on her back were also rapidly forming.

Zhang Ruochen calculated in his heart. If he did not use the Supreme Artifact, would he be able to defeat the current Lord Xia Yu?

Zhang Ruochen had spent a lot of effort to defeat Lord Xia Yu during the God-ascension Ceremony.

Everyone’s cultivation was improving, but Lord Xia Yu had taken the most crucial step. It was very likely that she was ahead.

The gods of the Bloodysky Clan sensed this at once and were overjoyed.

Even though Lord Xia Yu had already broken through ninety-nine shackles and was only one step away from reaching the great circle of the Hundred-Shackled Realm, the gods of the Bloodysky Clan knew her situation very well. They felt that she couldn’t break through within a hundred years. It was even possible for her to stay where she was for the rest of her life.

Therefore, the gods of the Bloodysky Clan did not have much hope for her.

However, before the Celestial-Hunting Festival, Lord Xia Yu had successfully broken through. This was definitely out of their expectations. It could be described as a surprise.

Wargod Bloodximius transmitted a message to Supreme Saint Qingsheng. “When she reaches the completion of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, send a Supreme Saint in the initial stage of the Thousand-Koan Realm to check out her combat strength.”

…

Not long after, Lord Xia Yu temporarily consolidated her cultivation.

Even though she was as cold as a stone, there was a smile on her face at this moment. The joy in her heart could not be suppressed and hidden.

Zhang Ruochen stepped into the spatial bubble and hovered in the air. “Congratulations on breaking through the realm and entering the completion of the Hundred-Shackle Realm.”

“Completion?”

Lord Xia Yu shook her head and said, “I just broke through the hundredth shackle and I’m still far from the completion. In the Supreme Saint’s body, there are thousands of tiny shackles in addition to the hundred main shackles. I can only be considered to have reached the completion after breaking all of them. By then, my cultivation will at least double.

“Although there are many tiny shackles, they can’t stop my progress. Give me three more years at most, and I’ll be able to break them all. Of course, you have to provide me with enough fresh divine blood in these three years.”

Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, “Why should I provide you with divine blood?”

“Don’t you like to curry favor? I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it?” Lord Xia Yu said.

Zhang Ruochen could see that Lord Xia Yu was really in a good mood. At the same time, her hostility and rejection toward him had disappeared. In the past, she would never have said such words to Zhang Ruochen.

Such words already had a hint.

Lord Xia Yu quickly realized that what she had just said was inappropriate. She immediately put away the smile on her face, she said coldly, “I was just joking with you. Don’t look so reluctant. I will buy it with Godstones. I won’t take your divine blood for nothing.”

“Oh, you are indeed Lord Xia Yu. You are so impressive. I have never seen such a begging attitude from you.” said Luo Sha.

Luo Sha walked into the spatial bubble with her stunning figure. She walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side with a dissatisfied look, she said again, “Zhang Ruochen, why should I pay for the Sundial when other cultivators don’t need to pay Godstones to cultivate? Moreover, you provide them with divine blood for free. Why don’t I get such treatment?”

Zhang Ruochen sniffed the charming fragrance coming from her body and said lightly, “They are cultivators of the Bloodysky Clan and you are not.”

“You…”

Luo Wei was even more annoyed. She puffed up her cheeks, widened her eyes, and said, “You are bullying me. Also, why does the Sundial consume so many Godstones? It costs at least six Godstones a day. Do you think I am at your mercy?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “If you’re unhappy, you can leave the Vastsea Manor at any time.”

Luo Sha put her hands behind her back and stepped on lotus flowers in the void space. She looked at Lord Xia Yu up and down and said with a smile, “Of course I’m unhappy, but I won’t leave.

“Lord Xia Yu can cultivate here and get divine blood. I want the same treatment as her. Don’t tell me that she’s a cultivator from the Bloodysky Clan. Why don’t cultivators from other Bloodysky Clans get the same treatment? You just like her, Don’t you?”

“Zhang Ruochen, how strong is the Yang Qi in your body? One Fairy Shadowless can’t satisfy you. Do you want me to give you 10 Saint Rakshasis?”

Lord Xia Yu’s body burned with the Grim Soul-devouring Flame. She said coldly, “He’s unruly, but I’m clean. Your Highness, you’d better not talk nonsense or you’ll get into trouble.”

“From now on, I’ll provide the Godstones needed to operate the Sundial.”

Lord Xia Yu had already left the spatial bubble by the time she finished speaking.

Luo Sha narrowed her charming eyes and smiled slyly. “Do you see, Zhang Ruochen? A woman like Lord Xia Yu can be taken down with a little trick.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. I’m helping her because I want to win the Celestial-hunting Festival. It’s not as bad as you think,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Luo Sha rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, “What about Fairy Shadowless? Don’t tell me that she’s still a pure and flawless fairy? She’s different now that she’s come out of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace!”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes darkened. “Mind your own business,” he said coldly

After Zhang Ruochen returned to the Sevenstar Imperial Palace, Luo Sha’s red lips curled up devilishly by the corner and said, “You can hide your thoughts from those self-righteous gods who treat all living beings as ants. How can you hide them from me?

“However, this guy is extremely lucky with women. He’s becoming more and more unrestrained. I can’t let him live so comfortably.

“If the cultivators of Celestial Court know that two of the nine fairies on the Portrait of the Nine Beauties are no longer pure and innocent and that they were all destroyed by the villainous Zhang Ruochen of Infernal Court, will they come to Infernal Court to kill him? Hehe. Zhang Ruochen, you have been so harsh to me. I have to punish you.”
