Chapter 483: An Imperial Weapon as Matchmaker, Ravaging Heaven and Earth!
In the Palace of Parting Sorrows, rosy clouds gleamed brightly, as if a magical treasure were being born, or a Holy King coming into existence, with extremely strong portents flowing around.
If Zhou Tong hadn’t contained all this with his spiritual power, such a spectacle would have spread throughout the Central Continent.
After a short while, everything dissipated, and the long night was once again enveloped in silence.
“My current strength, purely through physical prowess, can overpower an Advanced Sage. If I achieve the Three Elements Unification, I should be able to defeat weaker Peak Sages like Xuan Qiubai.”
He muttered to himself. At this moment, he had already reached the pinnacle of strength in the current era.
Were it not for the imminent arrival of the Golden Great Era and the emergence of ancient self-sealed warriors, he could walk fearlessly!
He took a deep breath, then once again became like an ordinary person.
Though extremely powerful during this time, the Sage Peak was just one stage of power.
Once the Heavenly Dao binds were broken, that level of mastery wouldn’t be anything special anymore.
And that moment was coming soon!
“Surely you haven’t forgotten your agreement with my master?”
Suddenly, a clear and melodious female voice sounded in his mind.
The source of this voice was none other than the Heavenly Cold Snow Pearl, also the Quasi-Emperor-level artifact that the Snow Woman had left inside him to monitor his actions.
Her original demand was straightforward: Zhou Tong had to hand over his firstborn child to her. What a beautiful fantasy.
“How come you’re still here? Mirror, control this annoying chatterer!”
Zhou Tong frowned and said in an extremely harsh tone.
“You… you dare to go back on your word!”
“Snow Pearl Sister, this man hasn’t gone back on his word. He merely agreed that your master would teach his first child. But he never specified how long the teaching would last!”
The Four Annihilators of the 麟 suddenly interjected without hesitation, squarely supporting Zhou Tong, leaving the Heavenly Cold Snow Pearl speechless.
“Mirror Brother, why even you… harrumph!”
“Boy, do you dare to play word games with me?!”
Suddenly, the Snow Pearl trembled lightly, flew out from Zhou Tong’s body, and in front of his watchful eyes, instantly transformed into the Snow Woman’s likeness.
“Long time no see.”
Zhou Tong looked at her without a trace of fear.
“Seems like you’re growing wings, daring to toy with me!”
The Snow Woman emitted an awe-inspiring aura, clearly a reflection of her true consciousness through the Snow Pearl. It was as if her spiritual essence had traveled to be present in person.
“The ancient divine race’s techniques truly deserve admiration, like your true self has arrived.”
Zhou Tong observed her closely and noticed that the Snow Woman still bore the aura of immortality. This indicated that despite being sealed, her breakout was not far into the future.
It also foreshadowed that the Golden Great Era was near at hand!
“Your skill level…”
Zhou Tong clenched his fists slowly. The last time they met, she was merely at the beginning stage of a Sage. Now, with the seal diminishing, the Snow Woman’s strength had almost reached the Peak Sage level.
“This world has no one who can defy my will. That child is definitely mine!”
The Snow Woman suddenly declared brazenly.
“You’ve really got a big mouth!”
Before Zhou Tong could respond, the Mirror interjected, “Although the Ancient Divine Clan once thrived in ancient times, the Human Race is no less impressive. You shouldn’t so openly think you can take advantage of the Human Race!”
“Only an artifact has the qualifications to lecture me?”
She stared intently at the Mirror, showing quite a bit of restraint, clearly indicating her actual strength was not as formidable as her words.
“I actually do have those qualifications!”
The Mirror laughed coldly, “The Ancient Divine Clan’s pure bloodline is almost gone, isn’t it? In fact, you might be the only one left. If you want the Ancient Divine Clan to regain greatness, you must rely on the Human Race’s destiny!”
“And that unborn child, without a doubt, possesses the ultimate divine potential. Whoever obtains this child will surely strengthen their own race. This is indisputable.”
“Now you simply want to monopolize the child, there’s no such good thing in the world!”
Upon hearing this, the Snow Woman’s words faltered. Being exposed openly like this was clearly an awkward situation.
“That child…”
Zhou Tong muttered silently, his heart trembling. He thought about that child-to-be in Mu Ran Ya’s womb, already a starlight-filled small life force, already being marked this early for the future. He must keep a close eye on it.
The Snow Woman’s aura gradually intensified. If it weren’t for the race crisis, she wouldn’t be doing such a bandit-like act.
Today, for the Ancient Divine Clan to propagate and become powerful, they must connect with someone of this exalted presence.
She’s already calculated: if the child is a boy, she’ll personally guide him to maturity, marry him, and produce offspring with him; if a girl, she’ll perform a blood baptism and convert her into the Ancient Divine Clan.
These two plans she had kept within her and didn’t dare to say in front of Zhou Tong.
Otherwise, Zhou Tong would surely join the Imperial Weapon against her!
“Ha ha ha…”
Suddenly, the Imperial Weapon began to laugh loudly, transforming into human form and looking teasingly towards the Snow Woman.
“I’ve actually got a method here that can both continue the incense offerings of your Ancient Divine Clan and prevent my brother here from experiencing the pain of separation from his child.”
“Tell me about this method!”
The Snow Woman frowned. If there was truly such a good method, she’d be willing to give it a try.
“Actually, it’s quite simple. See how lovely your face is, evoking pity in everyone. You are a pearl among the remnants of the Ancient Divine Clan, so high in status and respect that very few in this world can match you!”
“By chance, my brother here is young and heroic, unmatched under heaven, possessing the potential to become a Great Emperor. Why not let me act as your matchmaker and let you become his concubine? That would truly be a win-win situation, wouldn’t it?”
“Blasphemy!”
Zhou Tong and the Snow Woman were both simultaneously enraged. The Mirror’s idea was truly brilliant; if it couldn’t satisfy everyone, it would ensure that no one was satisfied!
“Impossible! I am the daughter of the Royal Family of the Ancient Divine Clan. If you dare to make me a concubine, even if you’re an Imperial Weapon, I’ll fight you to the death!”
“But your Royal Family is gone, and you’re old!”
The Mirror spoke rudely and mercilessly, throwing out two lethal blows in succession!
“My skills are unrivaled!”
“Hmm, indeed powerful at the peak, but still not a match for me!”
“You dead Mirror, don’t push me too hard. Do you think I’m someone you can bully?”
The Snow Woman immediately turned red-eyed, the heavenly essence around her violently boiling, showing signs of breaking through her seal.
“Don’t make rash moves!”
Zhou Tong quickly intervened, gesturing to the Mirror to speak less and stop provoking this lonely Ancient Divine Queen.
But before his words even finished, the fire ignited upon him.
“You’re no good either. What kind of master you have, such is the weapon. This mirror is a lustful and audacious rogue, and so are you. Having multiple wives and concubines, unpredictable and deceitful, heartless and faithless, abandoning those who helped you. I curse your child to be born…”
“Shut up!!”
For the first time in this life, Zhou Tong let his guard down. His eyes were ablaze with fire, his blood boiling as he stared intently at the Snow Woman.
“Draw a line. Let’s settle this matter today!”
“Fight! Fight! Fight! Beat her until even her own mother doesn’t recognize her—don’t show any mercy!”
The Mirror fanned the flames beside them, igniting the dynamite!
“Fine then, today I’ll teach you some manners, you lecherous rogue who dares to behave promiscuously in the snowlands!”
Zhou Tong gritted his teeth, immediately rebutting, “If I’m a lecher, then you’re just an ancient cow who wants young grass, unprecedented since the chaos of the universe!”
“Old and hard hag, still eyeing my child. Do you think I don’t see through your intentions? Go die somewhere!”
“Hissss…”
Even the Mirror couldn’t help but intake a sharp breath at this statement!
