Chapter 241: My Husband is Truly Impressive!
Wu Zhan suppressed a laugh, but wore a troubled expression on his face.
“You know, the Nine Orifice Spiritual Ginseng is a prized treasure of our sect. If we give it to you, the loss for us…”
“Shut up!”
Zhou Tong cut him off directly, causing his face to turn iron-gray instantly.
“Hand over the Nine Orifice Spiritual Ginseng, and you may prolong your miserable existence. If you refuse, the Jade Purity Sect will be expunged today. I’ll give you fifteen minutes to consider—life or death, you decide!”
He spoke ruthlessly; since they were destined to be enemies, there was no need to spare the other party any face.
“You!!”
Wu Zhan trembled with rage, feeling deeply humiliated by Zhou Tong!
” Sect Master, there’s no need to waste words with them. We just need to rush in; even if he has tricks up his sleeve, he can only die a tragic death here!”
An elder stepped forward, only to receive a resounding slap.
“Shut it! If the killing intent erupts again, can you still withstand it?”
With this statement, the opposing side fell completely silent.
“Fine, our sect agrees with you. If we can turn blades into silk, it would be a good thing.”
Wu Zhan said coldly, “You want the ginseng, then follow me!”
He charged ahead, followed closely by Zhou Tong and Mu Ran Ya, unafraid. Moments later, they entered the underground through a hidden path.
“I truly didn’t expect that there would be another world within the Jade Purity Sect.”
“There are many things you haven’t expected!”
Wu Zhan internally chuckled.
After walking for some time, a gigantic portal suddenly appeared at the end of the road.
The door was clearly forged from a special divine material, radiating an indestructible aura.
“Edict, open the door!”
Wu Zhan formed a hand seal, and with a violent rumbling, the door swung open.
“Whoosh!!”
In an instant, endless cold air surged from within the door; this was no ordinary chill, but one that could freeze spiritual energy, sending shivers down one’s spine!
“Pulse-Cutting Snow Path!”
Zhou Tong’s pupils trembled; he had heard long ago of a perilous place beneath the Jade Purity Sect, and now he found the rumors to be true.
“The Nine Orifice Spiritual Ginseng is inside!”
After probing with his spiritual power, Zhou Tong asserted that inside not only lay the Nine Orifice Spiritual Ginseng, but countless Heaven-Subtlering Treasures as well, though unfortunately, no one in the Jade Purity Sect could extract them.
“Please, come in!”
Wu Zhan gestured for them to enter, managing to maintain a strained expression, almost unable to contain his laughter.
Zhou Tong and Mu Ran Ya ignored his comical appearance, going along with the plan, and entered first.
“Hahaha… you’re done for!”
Finally, he revealed a triumphant smile, swiftly escaping the snow path, followed by multiple doors slamming down simultaneously, completely sealing off the exit!
“Enjoy yourselves! Even a Semi-Sage can only last six hours inside; I’ll come back to collect your corpses!”
“Fool!”
Within the snow path, Zhou Tong and Mu Ran Ya exchanged looks and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Husband, it’s cold!”
Mu Ran Ya took advantage of the moment, playfully acting spoiled.
“Fine, fine, fine!”
Zhou Tong, helpless, could only take off his outer robe and drape it over her, allowing her to snuggle into his arms.
This extreme cold was no longer a concern for the two; they simply enjoyed the warm atmosphere together.
The Pulse-Cutting Snow Path was no minor challenge; the further they walked, the heavier the cold became, even freezing spiritual power. Perhaps if they went a bit further, even a Sage would struggle to endure.
“The Nine Orifice Spiritual Ginseng is ahead!”
Sensing the aura of the herb, both quickened their pace, and after barely five hundred zhang, they spotted their target.
“Over there!”
Mu Ran Ya pointed ahead; indeed, a spiritual ginseng swayed in the wind, adorned with nine orifices and patterns resembling a baby, exuding a rich life energy.
“It really is the Nine Orifice Spiritual Ginseng!”
Zhou Tong looked surprised, not expecting such an unexpected gain. Next to the ginseng were hundreds of Washing Marrow Grasses, which were also rare spiritual herbs; if refined into Washing Marrow Pills, they would become top-tier physical enhancement elixirs, greatly beneficial to him!
“No time to waste! Since we’ve gathered the herbs, we can start refining the nine-grade pills!”
Just as Zhou Tong was about to pick, he noticed Mu Ran Ya slightly trembling.
“Ah… little one, I’m really starting to feel a bit cold now.”
Hearing this, Zhou Tong paused for a moment before pouting, “I told you to take care of yourself; now you know how tough it is, huh?”
“I know I was wrong! Please think of a way; it would be terrible if the baby gets frozen!”
“Cough…”
As soon as those words left his mouth, Zhou Tong became serious.
“Don’t worry, I have a way!”
He then opened his spatial ring and took out a massive Yin-Yang Jade Stone!
In an instant, the cold snow path became significantly warmer.
This was originally a treasure from the treasure market, which Zhou Tong had borrowed from his Shi Jie; he hadn’t expected to use it so soon.
This item was of utmost Yang nature, capable of warding off evil and nourishing vitality.
Without hesitation, Zhou Tong swiftly transformed it into a large bed and then carried Mu Ran Ya onto it.
“How does it feel?”
“So warm, my husband is truly impressive!”
Mu Ran Ya happily kicked off her embroidered shoes, gently rubbing her jade-like feet, which were wrapped in black stockings, her gaze filled with a seductive charm that left Zhou Tong mesmerized.
“Temptress! This is definitely a blatant seduction!”
“Husband… Ya’er wants it!”
With a mischievous grin, she pulled Zhou Tong closer, igniting a spark of passion in an instant.
As emotions deepened, their lips unconsciously drew nearer!
