Chapter 344: Profound Sky Hall, The First Foe!
“I’m prepared to unleash a massacre!”
Zhou Tong sneered coldly, the blood hue in his eyes already beginning to spread.
That aura was very familiar to him—it was from one of the top human factions, known as the Profound Sky Hall.
In his past life, the Profound Sky Hall had colluded and schemed with Tang Qi, wreaking havoc across the realm, thus creating an unforgivable enmity between them and Zhou Tong.
But what he never anticipated was that their grudge had existed even before he was born.
His unseen father, Li Cheng, might very well have perished at the hands of the Profound Sky Hall.
And then, Qin Xiong and Luo Zhen, as well as his own biological mother…
With these thoughts, Zhou Tong took a deep breath, his expression returning to normal.
His fury hadn’t disappeared; rather, it had transformed into an immense ocean, concealing the violent waves beneath the calm waters, and once it erupted, it would shake the very heavens and earth!
“Master Zhou, the criminals have already fled back to the Li Family. According to the Enforcers’ rules, we must pursue them. Do you think… is it necessary?”
Xiao Chen approached quietly to ask, seeking counsel from his superior.
“Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Enforcer. However, this matter, I wish to settle on my own.”
Zhou Tong’s voice was calm but it made Xiao Chen involuntarily tremble.
It was certain that this time, Zhou Tong’s personal vendetta against the Li Family would involve certain world-shaking methods.
“If that is the case, then this subordinate shall take leave. Please accept this!”
Xiao Chen took out an invitation from his pocket and respectfully handed it to Zhou Tong.
“A calligraphed invitation from the Law Master…”
Seeing the envelope, Zhou Tong gave a slight smile and opened it right in front of the Enforcers.
“Ten days from now, the Chief Enforcers will meet in the Enforcement City.”
Simple words, straightforward without any pretense or courtesy, something Zhou Tong found very satisfying, appreciating the Law Master’s straightforwardness.
“Please inform Master Law that I shall certainly arrive on time!”
Xiao Chen nodded, said nothing further, waved his hand, and led the Enforcers away.
After the Enforcers departed, the other families gradually left as well. Apart from Zhou Tong and his group, only the Celestial Master Clan, the Zhong Family, and the Empire’s personnel remained.
“Shall we launch an attack on the Li Family now?”
The Empress looked at Zhou Tong, her eagerness clear. She continued, “With your leadership, a large number of forces in Central Continent will respond to your call and crush them in no time!”
“No, we have to wait first,” Zhou Tong shook his head with a smile.
“Wait for what?”
“For the fish to bite!”
Since the Profound Sky Hall had already made its move, they would definitely mobilize support for the Li Family again. Zhou Tong intended to wait for them to congregate before taking them all at once!
At this moment, though the people around him hadn’t reacted yet, his four Slashing麟 Mirrors showed movement first.
“I’ll take part in the fight against the Profound Sky Hall!”
“Why are you so eager this time? Could it be that you also have grievances with them?”
“Yes!”
The mirror admitted it straightforwardly. He said, “The Profound Sky Hall is extraordinary. They once followed the Great Emperor and even served as leaders of the Human Race for a time.”
“However, during the invasion by all the races against the humans, they did nothing, causing the Great Emperor to fight alone in his old age, depleting his vitality and ultimately fading away.”
“After that, the heavens underwent a massive upheaval. The Golden Great Era declined, and all xiū liàn zhě’s capabilities were suppressed to below the level of a Holy King. As a result, the Profound Sky Hall lost its position of rule.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Tong seemed to understand. There was indeed such a feud.
“Even if you don’t act, I will ensure their lineage comes to an end!”
Zhou Tong declared resolutely, he has never hated any faction as much as he does now for the Profound Sky Hall. Not even the Jade Purity Sect compares.
“It’s not that simple. As far as I know, within the Profound Sky Hall, there still exists an Imperial Weapon, which only my intervention can withstand.”
“What?”
Zhou Tong’s eyes widened. In his previous life, he had not seen the Profound Sky Hall produce an Imperial Weapon.
“Hmph… do you think the Imperial Weapon is so easily controlled? The current bunch of ants doesn’t have the qualifications to manipulate it!”
“Only when the Profound Sky Hall faces life-or-death situations will the Imperial Weapon awaken automatically, protecting their safety.”
“And I, just happen to be able to assist you in eliminating their final reliance!”
Zhou Tong slightly hesitated. The tone of the mirror seemed quite intense, as if it had a deep grudge against that Imperial Weapon.
“Can we win?”
“Joke! I could make it call me grandfather now!”
The four Slashing麟 Mirrors arrogantly declared. It sounded like bragging, but it wasn’t.
It was inherently an Imperial Weapon, and had absorbed and refined the traces of the Great Emperor’s laws, surpassing later-attained Imperial Weapons from the start. And now, with the blessing of the Divine Inscription of Weaponry, ordinary Imperial Weapons couldn’t hold a candle to it!
With this settled, Zhou Tong completely calmed down. He could finally revenge methodically.
“Little brat…”
At this moment, a pair of cool little hands grabbed his, it was the Little Demoness calling him.
“Yue’er…”
“This evening, come back to the Celestial Master Clan with me…”
The Little Demoness softly spoke, her cheeks pink, her demeanor soft and alluring.
“We’ve been separated for so long, I miss you dearly, and I have so much to tell you.”
Zhou Tong was momentarily stunned, then he simply smiled,
He never expected that the once haughty young lady also could be this straightforward.
“I was thinking the same, but…”
Zhou Tong looked at Li Mu and the others, hesitating to speak.
“There’s nothing for Master Zhou to worry about. Our You Family is vast, and we have ample space for all your esteemed guests. The head of our family formally invites everyone to our humble abode!”
“Wouldn’t that be too much trouble?” Li Mu said, somewhat embarrassed.
“What trouble? More people makes it more lively! Everyone can play to their heart’s content and then rest directly, extremely convenient!”
“I want to go too!”
The Empress suddenly interjected, staring intently at the Little Demoness, her eyes full of competitive defiance.
“What are you coming for? We don’t welcome you…”
“Welcome! A grand welcome!”
The head of the Li Family quickly appeared. If it weren’t for everyone’s eyes on him, he’d have probably kowtowed on the spot.
The Empress was a massive investor who must not be easily offended at all.
“Hmph!”
The Little Demoness coldly snorted, unwilling to see this middle-aged uncle’s servile demeanor anymore. Thus, she pulled Zhou Tong’s arm, preparing to leave.
However, just at that moment, the head of the Zhong Family suddenly led his clansmen, blocking the path in front of Zhong Ningxue.
“Long live the Virgin Saint!”
Then they all bowed to her in unison. Seeing this, Zhong Ningxue couldn’t help but shed tears.
These people still carried the bloodline of the Heavenly Gu Clan, meaning her race had not been completely wiped out. Truly, the heavens did not completely forsake humanity!
“From this day forward, are you willing to follow me?”
She cautiously asked.
“For the Virgin Saint, we would rush into boiling water and raging fire without hesitation!”
The Zhong Family members replied resolutely, and an undeniable Power of Belief flickered around them. For them, the Virgin Saint was the supreme existence!
Suddenly, Zhong Ningxue seemed to recall something, shyly approaching Zhou Tong.
Looking at her manner, Zhou Tong knew well that this girl didn’t have any good intentions brewing.
“Master, I wish for…”
