Balancing the World - C77
“Dad!”
Suddenly, Zhuo Quan dropped the blade in his hand and picked up the “corpse”.
That’s right, this was Zhuo Erhu, and he was being treated as a corpse by the people from Bailao Sect.
“Dad, what’s wrong? Wake up, I’m Quan Er! “Howl.” Zhuo Quan saw that his father was not moving at all, he was so anxious that he cried.
“Brat, don’t cry. Your father didn’t die. He was struck by a type of bewitching incense and needs to sleep for a long time.” Old Ghost suddenly appeared in front of Zhuo Quan.
“Master.” Zhuo Quan screamed and quickly took off all of the clothes on Zhuo Erhu’s body.
“Oh? And this thing? Jade Red Grass. Kid, your dad is fine, he was poisoned by the Jade Red Fragrance. Although it was called Jade Red Fragrance, the content of the Jade Red Grass was very low. At most, it would let your father sleep for a year. Old Ghost looked at Zhuo Erhu and said.
“A year’s sleep? Is there no way to wake them up? ” Zhuo Quan asked.
“Brat, I’m here, what are you afraid of?” Old Ghost took something out from his body and placed it on Zhuo Erhu’s Yintang Point.
“This is a piece of cold jade, it has the ability to clear the mind.” The Jade Safflower Poison he had been infected with was actually equivalent to him getting drunk. The Soul had fainted. Give him an hour, and he’ll be awake. Put him down and sit down for a while. ” The Old Ghost said.
Oh, right. Master, an elder of the Azure Sun Sect ambushed me with a small triangular metal piece. I want to see if there’s poison on it?” Zhuo Quan hastily took out a small bottle from the old ghost’s jade pendant. There was a triangle-shaped object inside.
“Oh, I’ve seen it. It was a kind of snake poison. I can’t tell what kind of snake poison it was because it had evaporated a long time ago, and now it’s no longer poisonous.
But it must have been very toxic at the time.
“However, that poison is unable to injure you. Your body has been soaked by the Poison Insect Poison Grass before. Even the most ordinary poison in this world will not be able to harm you.” The Old Ghost said.
“Master, what exactly is this Jade Red Vanilla?” Why do people sleep when they smell it? ” Zhuo Quan asked.
“The Jade Red Fragrance has added the Jade Red Grass to the common thread fragrance. Actually, the most harmful thing was the Jade Red Fruit. Eating it would let one sleep for three hundred years. No matter how high one’s cultivation was, one would still sleep for three hundred years.
Because he slept due to alcohol, the bodies of the people who slept for three hundred years did not change at all. As a result, this thing was treated as a useless thing by ordinary people.
However, it was later added by some people who had ulterior motives to some pills, and was used as a sort of bewitching drug to plot against people. This thing did not hurt one’s meridians. It was mainly the misty Soul, so no one in the world could resist this kind of thing.
However, this thing might be useful to you. Think about it. It can make a person sleep for three hundred years. That is to say, it is an energy body, and your physique will not reject any energy body. However, this is just my guess. If I really do encounter that thing, you still have to be careful. ” The Old Ghost said.
“Senior.” Just as the master and disciple pair were chatting, Zhuo Erhu woke up.
“Father.” Zhuo Quan hurriedly stood up and ran towards Zhuo Erhu.
“You, you are?” Zhuo Erhu looked at Zhuo Quan in astonishment, and couldn’t help but take two steps back.
“Ha ha!” Old Ghost laughed.
“Father, I am Quan Er.” Zhuo Quan said.
“Quan Er? You, how could you do this? ” Zhuo Erhu looked at Zhuo Quan in confusion, both his hands grabbing onto Zhuo Quan’s shoulders as he looked up and down.
“Quan Er, you are the Xi Nang?” Zhuo Erhu asked in shock.
Zhuo Quan had the identity of a Xi Nang, but in reality, only four people knew about him. Of course, those Zhuo Ancestor s were not counted.
“Quan Er, you, how did you do it? Are you really that bad? ” Zhuo Erhu said excitedly.
“Not only is he a Xi Nang, he has also saved you.” The Old Ghost said.
“Oh? Quan Er, Daddy thanks you. ” Zhuo Erhu hugged Zhuo Quan to his chest, and said with tears in his eyes.
“Dad, you have to be careful in the future. Those people won’t give up on you. I overheard them talking, and they were called in for your murder. ” Zhuo Quan said as he wiped his father’s tears.
This time, I have the evidence. I will go tell the City Lord and expose their identities to the world. ” Zhuo Erhu said.
“Daddy, don’t.” Zhuo Quan said.
“Right now, based on this, you are unable to expose their faces. Instead, you exposed yourself to the world, letting many people know that you have that killing move. That would bring you even more trouble.”
“Then we’ll let them off just like that?” Zhuo Erhu asked.
“Let them go, hur hur. I think there are still people ahead of us. I have to kill all of them.” Master, can you sense where they are? ” Zhuo Quan asked.
“Even though I recovered from that injury, I don’t dare to reveal any aura of a Soul with Heavenly Martial above. Thus, the sensing distance is inferior to yours. ” The Old Ghost said.
“Then Master, Father, you two wait here. I’ll go ahead and take a look.” Zhuo Quan said.
“Let’s go together. If it’s those people from Bailao Sect, I’m not afraid.” Zhuo Erhu said.
“Alright, it will save me more time this way. “Dad, when the time comes, just pretend you don’t know nothing.” Zhuo Quan said. Thus, Old Ghost entered the jade pendant once again. Zhuo Quan and his son headed towards the forest in front.
“Hur hur, are you guys waiting for me?” In a forest, a dozen people were sitting on a rock. They were whispering to each other when a person suddenly came out from the forest and stood in front of them.
“Keeper? Not good, Captain, he is Zhuo Erhu. ” One of them looked at the person standing in front of him, and his face changed as he spoke to a tall middle-aged man in the middle.
“That’s right, I am Zhuo Erhu. Didn’t you all want to kidnap me and bring me back? There’s no need to tie him up, I’ll leave with you. ” Zhuo Erhu said.
“Cough, cough.” Captain, is there some kind of misunderstanding? See, we were planning to withdraw from the Myriad Beasts Mountain and come here. When the rest of the people are here, we will leave immediately. “I’m sorry about the past. Please forgive me.”
The captain walked forward and bowed to Zhuo Erhu as he spoke, but his eyes were looking behind Zhuo Erhu.
“You don’t need to look. The people you were waiting for won’t come. They were all killed by the Xi Nang.” Zhuo Erhu said.
“What?” You’re lying, if they were killed by Xi Nang, how are you alright? Is the Xi Nang really released by your Zhuo Family? ” At this moment, someone stood up and said.
“Hehe, you guys put me on as a corpse. After the Xi Nang kills them, they start to move the corpse, and I took advantage of the time when he was carrying the corpse to escape here.
As the saying goes, one cannot live if he has done something wrong. What was the point? Alright, the heavens are blessed, quickly leave this place, and Xi Nang might be arriving soon. ” Zhuo Erhu said.
“You slept for at least a year after smelling that fragrance. How did you wake up? You liar, the Xi Nang is raised by your Keeper. ” Another said.
“Do I have to tell you how I woke up? Why didn’t you tell me about the kidnapping? Alright, since I’ve said it, it’s up to you guys whether you guys leave or not. Don’t wait for the Xi Nang to appear, none of you will be able to escape. ” After Zhuo Erhu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
“Catch him!” The matter has already been exposed. If he runs away, we’ll be in trouble! ” The captain shouted.
At that moment, a few figures leaped into the air and chased after Zhuo Erhu. Zhuo Erhu didn’t seem to be in a hurry to escape either, instead, he went back and forth in the forest. In terms of cultivation level, it was possible that only the captain was on par with him, so he wasn’t worried at all that he would be in danger.
“Quick! Split up and surround him! We can’t let him escape no matter what!” The captain shouted.
Immediately, everyone dispersed and went back into the forest.
“You must be tired, why don’t we take a break? Look at how tired your brothers are, they all went to rest. ” After around half an hour, Zhuo Erhu suddenly stopped, leaned on a tree and said to the big sized party leader who was chasing after him.
“You!” The big bloke immediately stood up and looked behind him. Indeed, none of their people were there.
“Alright, your Zhuo Family Keeper is setting up an ambush in the mountains to kill these foreign explorers. The captain clenched his teeth, and pointed at Zhuo Erhu with his sword.
“Hee hee.” Suddenly, two childish laughter came from behind the captain.
“Who is it!” The group of swords drew a big circle in front of him before suddenly turning around.
“Xi Nang?” The captain called out in terror. Suddenly, he turned around and allowed Zhuo Erhu to stand at his right side, while the Xi Nang stood at his left side and held onto the sword tightly with both of his hands.
“Hehe, as expected, the Xi Nang was released by the Zhuo Family people.” He coldly said to Zhuo Erhu, he suddenly threw the sword away and placed both of his hands on his chest.
“Not good, he wants to self-destruct!” Quan Er, look carefully! “One finger attack!” Zhuo Erhu extended his right middle finger and instantly rushed towards the captain.
“Swish.” Without making much noise, the captain turned into a rain of blood and scattered in all directions.
“Daddy!” Zhuo Quan quickly rushed to the front of Zhuo Erhu who was lying on the ground and squatted down to support his head.
“Quan Er, don’t worry, I was only momentarily injured. I will be fine later. When I used that move just now, did you see it clearly? ” Zhuo Erhu said with difficulty.
“I see, dad. Don’t say anything. Rest well.” As Zhuo Quan spoke, he took out a bottle of Healing Drug s and poured half of it into Zhuo Erhu’s mouth.
An hour later, Zhuo Erhu opened his eyes. His face was still pale white, but he was able to move freely.
“Father, this move is to draw out all the energy in the body and focus it on one point. The most important thing is speed, the faster the speed, the more powerful it is.
This is not a good move. If you do not have a strong physical body as a shield, then the person who uses this move might have already died from having their meridians burst apart from the excessive speed of drawing out their energy. ” Zhuo Quan said.
“Quan Er is really smart. Yes, every time I use this move, it seems to be a serious illness. In the current twenty-four hours, I don’t have much combat power.
Although this move will bring me a lot of trouble, but at that time, if Ancestor did not pass this move on to me, then I might not be able to escape from that incident at home. ” Zhuo Erhu said.
“It is only natural that there are advantages and disadvantages. However, if there’s really no other way, dad, you’d better not use it in the future. I can see that this move is not really made with your true qi, but it is making use of it. I feel that I can easily take it from you. If some bad people were to find out, it would be too dangerous for you. ” Zhuo Quan said.
“Quan Er, don’t worry. I won’t do anything rash. This is, after all, a life saving technique and it’s not like there’s no other way. Of course I won’t use it. ” Zhuo Erhu nodded and said.
“Dad, you should rest here for a while. I’ll go deal with the bodies and we’ll be back soon.” After Zhuo Quan finished speaking, he headed towards the forest.
