Chapter 199 Provocation (Early Month, Requesting Monthly Tickets!!!)

For several days.

Zhou Yuantong has not returned.

Zhu Ju had anticipated this.

"It seems that Senior Consort Yuan is very dissatisfied with Yuan Tong's progress in cultivation, so she took this opportunity to give us a warning."

"Too!"

"If I count on my fingers, I have been married to Yuan Tong for several months now. I am engrossed in storytelling and tales all day long, and I have not paid much attention to cultivation."

“It’s normal for a master to feel dissatisfied.”

Zhu Ju seemed to be deep in thought:
"A few months is nothing to a Dao Foundation cultivator with a lifespan of three or four hundred years."

"If they can't even wait this long, it means the rumors are true."

"This senior Consort Yuan is most likely seriously injured, and her lifespan is also shortened. She is not long to live."

Zhu Ju and Zhou Yuantong shared a tacit understanding regarding spiritual practice.

That means there's no rush.

Although they practiced the righteous method of Yin-Yang harmony, the fate of the Hehuan Sect's furnace cauldrons was obvious to all.

Once the cultivation is complete, Zhu Ju's fate will be unpredictable.

However, while the two of them were in no hurry, some others couldn't wait.

"Qi Yao took me to see the inner disciple's cultivation furnace, using it to intimidate me. If I continue to hinder Yuan Tong's cultivation, I'm afraid..."

"It's really possible to anger that person!"

If Consort Yuan were to become truly enraged, no one could guarantee what she might do.

This was just a warning; nobody knows what will happen next time.

However, no matter what a Dao Foundation cultivator wants to do, they can only bear it as innate Qi Refiners.

"Ding……"

The copper bell hanging on the wall jingled, indicating that someone had come to visit.

Zhu Ju got up and opened the stone door of the cave.

“Zhu Ju”.

Qi Yao, who was standing outside the door, gave him a wink:

"Senior Sister Fu needs to speak with Senior Sister Zhou."

Senior Sister Fu?
Zhu Ju looked behind her and saw a tall woman with beautiful features standing with her hands behind her back.

This woman was much taller than ordinary women, even comparable to Zhu Ju, and her joints were broad and strong.

This type of form should not be favored by the Hehuan sect.

However, Fu Qiuyue not only joined the Hehuan Sect, but was also a core disciple with the cultivation to break through the nine orifices.

Demon Transformation!
A strange method flashed through Zhu Ju's mind.

This method requires a special physique to cultivate. Once mastered, one can be either male or female, and can be either the dominant or submissive partner.

The Dao Foundation cultivator who captured Zhu Ju back then had an androgynous voice, and he must have been practicing this technique.

Beside Fu Qiuyue was a familiar face, none other than Mu Zi, who had wanted to buy Zhu Ju back then.

Mu Zi clung to Fu Qiuyue like a pendant, suggesting that their relationship was more than just ordinary.

"Feel sorry."

Zhu Ju bowed:

“Yuan Tong went to Senior Consort Yuan’s place and is not in the cave.”

"Yes," Qi Yao replied.
"Senior sister went to Master's place and hasn't returned yet."

"Did I tell you to speak?" Mu Zi frowned, glared at Qi Yao, then walked towards Zhu Ju with a charming smile:
"I heard you got married to Senior Sister Zhou. What a pity... you should have belonged to me."

"Miss Mu." Zhu Ju's expression remained unchanged.
"Please behave."

"Tsk tsk..." Mu Zi clicked her tongue lightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling:

"So ruthless?"

"I've been so hung up on you, but with that physique and build, can Senior Sister Zhou, that blockhead, handle it?"

"otherwise……"

She leaned forward, her graceful body pressed against him, and her red lips trembled as she whispered in Zhu Ju's ear:
"Would you like your senior sister to practice with you?"

Mind control techniques!
Mu Zi's beautiful eyes sparkled with a mesmerizing light, and her voice carried an alluring quality, stirring up desires in people's hearts.

"Senior Sister Mu."

Qi Yao's expression changed drastically:

“Zhu Ju is…”

"Hmm?" Before Mu Zi could speak, Fu Qiuyue frowned slightly, her eyes coldly fixed on her.
"It was just a joke, why are you so nervous?"

Qi Yao felt a chill in her heart.

She had long heard of Fu Qiuyue's ruthless methods; regardless of gender, anyone who fell into her hands would suffer a fate worse than death.

Even for an inner disciple, killing a core disciple is not a serious crime in the Hehuan Sect; at most, one would be confined for a few years.

And Fu Qiuyue,

They really can kill people!
"No, I wouldn't dare." Qi Yao's face turned pale, and she awkwardly took a step back.

Faced with Mu Zi's unexpected arrival, Zhu Ju calmly retreated into his cave, seemingly unaffected by the mind-controlling spell.

And then he spoke again:
"Miss Mu, please have some self-respect."

"Hehe..." Mu Zi was as beautiful as a flower, her laughter was charming, and her alluring figure approached like a snake.

His hands reached towards Zhu Ju's cheeks, a foolish smile on his face:
"My dear, my senior sister isn't here. We're just playing around, no one will tell her."

"Come!"

"I'll teach you how..."

Before she could finish speaking, a cold glint suddenly appeared before her eyes.

"careful!"

Fu Qiuyue, who was watching the play, suddenly changed her expression.

"Shh!"

Ghosts and gods are limited!
The two were inches apart when, without warning, the Horizontal Blade was drawn from its sheath and flashed toward Mu Zi's throat.

Even though Zhu Ju currently only has the cultivation level of breaking through one aperture, while Mu Zi has already broken through four apertures of the Innate Realm, it was too late for Zhu Ju to dodge.

The two were too close, and the strikes were too fast.

Moreover, no one would have expected that a mere furnace cauldron would dare to attack an inner disciple, and with such a deadly move at that.

"Peng!"

A flash of inspiration appeared on Mu Zi.

Amulet for protection!

The talisman shattered with a bang after only a moment, and with this brief respite, Mu Zi finally reacted.

"ah!"

She shouted urgently, her eyes filled with terror, and her body transformed into a phantom as she retreated rapidly.

After landing, he reached out to touch his neck, and a trickle of blood stained his palm. The stinging sensation came a moment later.

That last blow almost chopped off her head; it nearly cost her her life.

"you……"

Fear, shock, and anger surged through her, and Mu Zi screamed as she lunged forward:
"you wanna die!"

With a gentle pat, the innate true energy from breaking through the four orifices converged into an invisible giant hand, which struck down fiercely towards Zhu Ju.

"Ah……"

Faced with the oncoming attack, Zhu Ju did not dodge or avoid it, but even showed a mocking smile and quickly pounced out.

Ghostly Limit - One Slash Annihilates the Void!

"do not want!"

"No!"

Qi Yao screamed and unleashed a magical weapon, striking at Mu Zi's powerful hand of true energy. Fu Qiuyue also made her move.

Unexpectedly, she did not attack Zhu Ju, but instead swung a palm towards Mu Zi's location from afar.

"Peng!"

"boom!"

The powerful energy roars.

The two figures retreated rapidly.

Zhu Ju remained motionless, his long hair flying in the wind, while Mu Zi was disheveled and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

"Senior sister!"

Mu Zi looked at Fu Qiuyue, her face showing both confusion and grievance, her large eyes filled with tears:

"why?"

"Why are you helping him?"

If Fu Qiuyue hadn't intervened, Mu Zi knew she would never have been in such a sorry state. Despite the vast difference in their cultivation levels, she was still injured.

He was the one who almost got killed!
"madness."

Zhu Ju snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards the cave:
"Yuan Tong is not here today. Please come another day if you have something to do."

Qi Yao's beautiful eyes darted around, and she hurriedly followed him into the cave. The stone door of the cave slowly closed with a low thud.

“He is Zhou Yuantong’s furnace cauldron.” Fu Qiuyue stood with her hands behind her back, squinting at the closed stone door, her face grim.

“Killing him would be tantamount to ruining Zhou Yuantong’s path to enlightenment. If Zhou Yuantong’s path to enlightenment is ruined, Senior Consort Yuan will never let you and me go.”

"Zhu Ju is fearless. He doesn't dodge or avoid your attacks because he knows I won't hurt him."

"This person..."

"interesting!"

"Senior sister." Mu Zi snapped out of her daze. Although she understood what was going on, she still looked aggrieved, and touched her neck, feeling a lingering fear.
"I almost died just now..."

"Are we just going to ignore him like this?"

Fu Qiuyue narrowed her eyes. She didn't want Zhou Yuantong to have a perfect state of mind, but she couldn't let the path of evil be so obvious.

otherwise.

Even the elders of the sect couldn't protect her.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

Fu Qiuyue and the other woman had just left when Zhou Yuantong returned to her cave, which inevitably led people to speculate.

That Consort Yuan...

It's likely that they've been observing Zhu Ju's movements all along.

Even today's arrival of unpleasant guests could be the result of her doing something behind the scenes, or at the very least, it was intentional indulgence.

"Mu Zi and Fu Qiuyue, their arrival is definitely not for good news."

Zhou Yuantong's face showed worry:
"My lord, are you hurt?"

"It's nothing." Zhu Ju shook his head.
"They wouldn't dare hurt me."

“…Yes.” Zhou Yuantong snapped out of her daze and breathed a sigh of relief.

"With my master's protection, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect have never dared to harm me, and this has been the case for many years."

"Master."

Her expression was complicated:
"My master scolded me, saying that if my cultivation did not improve, we would have to move to her palace."

“Back then, she could see everything we did.”

"Progress?" Zhu Ju asked.
"How can I meet the requirements of Senior Consort Yuan?"

"Ten years." Zhou Yuantong sighed.

"Within these ten years, Master will give me whatever I want. I must achieve perfection in all nine orifices within ten years."

“My master has even prepared the Foundation Establishment Pill for me.”

"..." Zhu Ju's expression was strange:
"As expected of a true disciple of the sect, truly... enviable."

From breaking through the six apertures to achieving the perfection of the nine apertures, only ten years are given. Not to mention rogue cultivators, even disciples of the Mingxu Sect would not dare to even dream of it.

It's possible that a special Dao body could do it, but it's only a possibility.

Moreover, there are Foundation Establishment Pills, which are coveted by countless Qi Refiners but unattainable.

"The Joyous Union Sect is, after all, a demonic sect, different from the righteous path. Demonic methods are easy to master quickly, so ten years isn't too astonishing," Zhou Yuantong explained.
"and……"

"The Hehuan Sect today has no shortage of resources."

Zhu Ju nodded slowly.

It is said that during the heyday of the Mingxu Sect, even the inner disciples and true disciples had no shortage of elixirs.

As one of the major sects of the demonic path, the Hehuan Sect was far superior to even the Mingxu Sect at its peak.

"You wait."

Zhou Yuantong's beautiful eyes sparkled:
"I'm going to find my master!"

Before Zhu Ju could speak, he summoned a magical artifact, wrapped it around his body, and flew out of the cave.

…………

palace.

Zhou Yuantong knelt on one knee.

Consort Yuan rested her chin on her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"I did promise to give you the cultivation resources you need, but aren't the things you asked for prepared for Zhu Ju?"

"Master," Zhou Yuantong began.
“Zhu Ju is my cultivation vessel. The higher his cultivation level, the greater the benefit to my cultivation. Giving it to him is helping me, there is no difference.”

"Heh..." Consort Yuan smiled enigmatically.
"The things you want are all very valuable. Even if I am a Dao Foundation cultivator, I will have to swallow my pride and beg for them from all over the place. At that time, I will inevitably be short of money and unable to provide you with assistance."

"If you give all the good stuff to the furnace, what will happen if it delays your own cultivation?"

"Don't worry, Master!" Zhou Yuantong gritted her teeth.

"This disciple will never delay the progress of my cultivation."

"Tsk tsk..." Consort Yuan clicked her tongue lightly.
"My dear disciple, disciples of the Joyful Union Sect are most averse to falling in love. Your behavior is making your master very worried!"

Although her words were tinged with worry, her face was full of smiles, as if she were extremely satisfied.

"That's fine!"

She slowly sat up straight, her beautiful eyes flickering slightly, and said:

"I can give you anything you want, I can even get you the latter half of that Ghostly Limit."

"But you must remember not to neglect your cultivation."

"Yes." Zhou Yuantong was overjoyed.
"Master, rest assured, it will not happen."

"And another thing," Consort Yuan said solemnly.
"I can't give him the top-grade magic weapon, but he knows how to refine weapons, so I can give him the materials."

"Materials?" Zhou Yuantong frowned.

"With Zhu Ju's current cultivation level, the success rate of refining a top-grade magic weapon is almost zero."

"My disciple!" Consort Yuan sighed softly.
"Your master has put a lot of thought into this. Your cultivation method is special. If the furnace's cultivation is stronger than yours, it may turn the tables and take control. We must be wary of this."

"It's better for both you and him to focus on weapon crafting."

“But…” Zhou Yuantong looked up, opening her mouth to speak.

alright!"

Before Zhou Yuantong could retort, he waved his sleeve, and a gust of wind sent her out of the main hall.

"Good disciple!"

"As expected of your teacher who has protected you for so many years, you have not picked up the bad habits of those disciples, and you still have a pure heart."

In the spacious hall, Consort Yuan smiled faintly, her beautiful eyes gleaming with a soft light.

"it is good!"

"very good!"

"The deeper the affection, the better. Love should be cherished and heartbreak should be forgotten. I hope you can understand this principle soon. Your teacher is waiting for you to do something important."

"Ahem!
