Chapter 2646 Zhou Tong Acts

After staying in the Silverwyrm Army’s camp for a few days, Zhou Fei had ascertained that Duan Ling Tian had only ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven two years ago. Moreover, he had ascended to the Heavenly Celestials’ Celestial Ascension Pool! This meant Duan Ling Tian was a Heavenly Celestial and not a Bodiless Celestial.

‘A Heavenly Celestial who’s capable of easily defeating me two years after he ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven… His Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities are certainly of the heaven-grade!’ Zhou Fei’s breathing quickened when he thought about this. He looked at Miao Lai Long, Miao Lai Feng, and Yang Kong Ping pointedly as he said, “If any of you dare to leak this matter, I’ll make sure that all of you will die without a grave!”

After threatening the three people, Zhou Fei added, “I’ll inform my godfather about this once I return to the County Governor’s estate. I’ll make sure he rewards all of you greatly!” He used the carrot and the stick method with these three people, afraid they would divulge this matter to outsiders. If the news about Duan Ling Tian possessing heaven-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities spread, he and his godfather would have a hard time getting their hands on the extraordinary Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities.

Zhou Fei knew once the news spread, let alone the Nine Specters County and King Qing’s Mansion, the entire Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom would be plunged into chaos. After all, there were no heaven-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities in the kingdom.

“Many thanks, Young Master Fei.” Miao Lai Long and the other two quickly expressed their gratitude upon hearing Zhou Fei’s words.

Miao Lai Long seemed to have recalled something at this moment. His eyes were bright when he looked at Zhou Fei as he said, “If Revered Eder Zhou Tong obtains Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, Young Master Fei, can you put in few good words for me and ask if Revered Elder Zhou Tong can impart one of Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities to me? Just one will do…” He had also heard about the incident one and a half years ago when Duan Ling Tian severely injured Zhou Fei in the Latent Dragon Abyss in the County Governor’s estate. Therefore, he was more than 90% certain that Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities were of the heaven-grade. If he could obtain even one of them, he would be able to challenge Liu Feng Gu, the City Governor of Bloody Specter City.

Upon hearing Miao Lai Long’s words, the pair of husband and wife, Miao Lai Feng and Yang Kong Ping, turned to look at Zhou Fei with burning gazes. They had no doubt that if Miao Lai Long managed to obtain one of the Celestial Methods or Divine Abilities, he would impart it to them as well. After, Miao Lai Long was Miao Lai Feng’s biological brother.

Zhou Fei agreed without any signs of hesitation. “Of course, that’s not a problem.”

“Many thanks, Young Master Fei,” Miao Lai Long quickly thanked Zhou Fei, feeling extremely grateful.

When Miao Lai Feng and Yang Kong Ping exchanged a look, they could see the excitement in each other’s eyes.

In their excitement, the three individuals failed to notice the cold and ruthless light that flashed in the depths of Zhou Fei’s eyes at this moment.

A few moments later, Zhou Fei indifferently bade farewell to them and left the Silverwyrm Army’s camp. He met the inner-estate elder his godfather had sent to accompany him in Bloody Specter City.

Zhou Tong said, “Elder Qian, bring me back to Nine Specters County.”

The inner-estate elder who had followed Zhou Fei here all the way from Nine Specters County was Zhou Tong’s loyal subordinate. Since Zhou Fei was Zhou Tong’s godson, he treated the former like Zhou Tong’s successor. “Yes, Young Master Fei.”

In order to hurry back to the County City of Nine Specters County, Zhou Fei had the inner-estate elder bring him back to save time. As soon as he arrived at the County Governor’s estate, he instantly looked for Zhou Tong.

“Godfather!” Zhou Fei hurriedly recounted everything he had discovered in the Silverwyrm Army’s camp without leaving any details out.

Zhou Fei felt as though he had just listened to an elaborate fantasy tale. He simply found it difficult to believe. “Duan Ling Tian only ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven two years ago? He was only a Crimson Moon Heavenly Celestial at that time? Moreover, at that time, he was already strong enough to suppress an ordinary Golden Celestial?”

Was this a joke? Someone who had only ascended to Spirit Overarching Heaven two years ago and was a Heavenly Celestial managed to heavily injure his godson without expending much efforts?!

“Godfather, my words are true. If you don’t believe me, you can personally visit the Silverwyrm Army in Bloody Specter City to investigate this matter,” Zhou Fei said solemnly when he saw the disbelieving expression on Zhou Tong’s face.

“Bloody Specter City…” Zhou Tong’s eyes glinted coldly at the mention of Bloody Specter City. “If my memory serves me right, the City Governor of Bloody Specter City is Liu Feng Gu, right?”

“You’re right, it’s him!” Zhou Fei hurriedly replied. As though he had thought of something, he added, “I heard from Miao Lai Long, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army, that before Duan Ling Tian came to the County Governor’s estate, he had received special care from Liu Feng Gu. Liu Feng Gu even granted Duan Ling Tian access to his cultivation place. As a city governor, his cultivation place is rich with Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy and is a good cultivation environment. Even the Commanders of the Silverwyrm Army and Black Dragon Army aren’t allowed into that place.”

Zhou Fei paused for a moment before continuing, “Moreover, Miao Lai Long also said he had informed Liu Feng Gu regarding Duan Ling Tian’s extraordinary strength and how he had only recently ascended. However, after verifying the matter, contrary to Miao Lai Long’s expectations, not only did Liu Feng Gu not force Duan Ling Tian to reveal his Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, but Liu Feng Gu began to help Duan Ling Tian to get stronger…” When he saw his godfather’s expression had darkened even more, he quickly added to fan the fire, “Godfather, I’m afraid Liu Feng Gu did all that so he can use Duan Ling Tian to deal with you.”

“Liu Feng Gu!” Zhou Tong scoffed as his eyes flashed coldly. He said, “You, follow me to Bloody Specter City again!” Without waiting for Zhou Fei’s reply, he raised his hand. His vast and terrifying Celestial Origin Energy swept out and carried Zhou Fei, swiftly leaving the County City of Nine Specters County.

Zhou Tong was a Great Overarching Golden Celestial after all. His speed was not something the inner-estate elder who had previously accompanied Zhou Fei could compare to. For this reason, it only took a short time before Zhou Fei returned to Bloody Specter City again.

Under Zhou Fei’s lead, Zhou Tong made his way to the Silverwyrm Army’s camp.

In Miao Lai Long’s tent.

Zhuo Fei who stood behind Zhou Tong said, “This is my godfather, Revered Elder Zhou Tong of the Nine Specters County.”

“Miao Lai Long pays his respect to Revered Elder Zhuo Tong!” Miao Lai Long said respectfully, bowing deeply at Zhou Tong. Although he had vaguely guessed Zhou Tong’s identity when he first saw the old man, he was still shocked when he heard Zhou Fei’s introduction.

“My godfather wants to meet the people who had ascended at the same as Duan Ling Tian,” Zhuo Fei said to Miao Lai Long.

It did not take long before Zhou Tong was also convinced that Duan Ling Tian had only ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven and become a Heavenly Celestial two years ago. His eyes burned with greed as he muttered to himself, “Heaven-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities…” He could not wait to capture Duan Ling Tian and force Duan Ling Tian to reveal his heaven-grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities.

Bang!

A loud explosion rang in the air. Miao Lai Long had thought Zhou Tong would reward him when Celestial Origin Energy surged out of Zhou Tong’s body like a terrifying beast and devoured him in one fell swoop.

After killing Miao Lai Long, Zhou Tong scoffed loudly. He blocked the Floating Image Celestial Talisman from transmitting the moments before Miao Lai Long’s death to the corresponding talisman.

…

In the City Governor’s estate of Bloody Specter City.

After Miao Lai Long died, Liu Feng Gu discovered that Miao Lai Long’s Soul Pearl had shattered. When he tried to see the moments before Miao Lai Long’s death from the Floating Image Celestial Talisman, he discovered that it was unresponsive. His expression changed drastically. “A Great Overarching Golden Celestial killed Miao Lai Long?”

It did not take long before he received news about Miao Lai Feng, Yang Kong Ping, and the Silverwyrm Army. Rivers of blood flowed in the Silverwyrm Army’s camp. It was likely that no one had survived the slaughter in the camp.

…

Meanwhile, two figures could be seen leaving Bloody Specter City to the County City of Nine Specters County in a hurry.

Zhou Fei asked in confusion, “Godfather, why didn’t you look for Liu Feng Gu?”

“I’m not in a hurry. It’s not too late for me to kill him after I obtain Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities.” His eyes flashed viciously as he continued to say, “At that time, I’ll let Liu Feng Gu taste true despair.”
