Chapter 292: Peach Blossom Eyes That Can Discharge Electricity, Listening to Husband

~15 min read 2,821 words

"Xuanhuang Sect? That is truly a good name."

"As for 'Xuanhuang', it is the mixture of Heaven and Earth; Heaven is Xuan (dark/mysterious) and Earth is Huang (yellow)."

"Xuan represents the sky, high and distant, unfathomable."

"Huang represents the earth, representing the profundity of the Earthly Dao."

"The two characters Xuanhuang are Heaven and Earth, they are the Heavenly Dao."

"Husband truly has profound mastery of the Dao."

Chu Dieyi looked at Zhou Sui with a face full of admiration; the simple sect name encompassed the mysteries of cultivating the Dao, representing the lifelong pursuit of Cultivators and the embodiment of the Great Dao.

For example, the Wuji Alliance, Tianjian Sect, Piaomiao Palace, and so on; the names of these sects often have a great deal to do with the techniques they practice and their pursuits.

"This!"

"Ahem, that's right, that is exactly what I was thinking."

"I didn't expect you, Die Yi, to understand me best."

Hearing this, Zhou Sui coughed and said brazenly.

"Good, then from this day forward, we shall be the Xuanhuang Sect."

"No longer the Xianxia Sect, Qingmu Sect, or Pill Cauldron Sect."

"There will only be the three branches of Xianxia Peak, Qingmu Peak, and Dan Ding Peak."

Lin Yazhu said immediately, deciding the matter.

She intended to completely reorganize the original sects, turning them into the three mountain peaks of the Xuanhuang Sect.

Each branch would represent a supreme inheritance.

"Husband, since that is the case, do we need to change Xianxia City to Xuanhuang City?"

"And change this mountain peak to Xuanhuang Peak?"

Leng Yuexi asked curiously.

After all, once the sect name is changed, the names of various places must be changed to occupy the moral high ground.

"No need."

"Perhaps in the future, we can find a better place, a better island."

Zhou Sui smiled slightly.

He would not treat the Three-Star Island Group as the future headquarters of the Xuanhuang Sect.

He had long since decided on the future headquarters of the Xuanhuang Sect, which was the former site of the Kurong Sect.

After all, that place had a Fifth-tier Spirit Vein.

If one wanted to advance to the Transformation God realm in the future, the assistance of a Fifth-tier Spirit Vein would be required.

Although the Three-Star Island Group was not bad, it only had a Fourth-tier High-grade Spiritual Vein.

Compared to a Fifth-tier Spirit Vein, it was far inferior.

Therefore, sooner or later, he would relocate the sect to the Transformation God Relic that was the Kurong Sect.

The Three-Star Island Group was merely a transitional place.

Of course, this matter could not be exposed for the time being.

It would not be too late to announce it to the world once he had sufficient strength to suppress the world.

"A better island?"

Ji Bingyu and the others all looked at their husband with great curiosity; they felt that the Fourth-tier High-grade Spiritual Vein of the Three-Star Island Group was already good enough, and if there were something better than this, wouldn't it be a Fifth-tier Spirit Vein?!

They were very puzzled in their hearts.

However, since it was what their husband said, there was nothing more to say; it must be correct.

Listening to one's husband is a wife's duty.

"Since that's the case, let's celebrate together."

Zhou Sui looked at the graceful figures of his Dao Companions, his Peach Blossom Eyes releasing infinite charm.

He felt himself becoming a bit restless.

"This!"

Chu Dieyi, Lin Yazhu, Leng Yuexi, Shen Biqian, and the other Dao Companions' bodies trembled slightly; they felt that their husband's eyes were filled with endless charm, and when he looked at them, it was as if currents of electricity were entering their bodies.

They were simply unable to extricate themselves.

How could this man's eyes discharge electricity?

With blushing faces, they swayed their graceful figures and walked toward the hot spring.

It could only be said that the pair of Peach Blossom Eyes that Zhou Sui had nurtured contained endless mysteries and had great lethality toward female Cultivators.

Soon, a symphony began to ring out from within the hot spring.

…………

Not long after, the news of the establishment of the Xuanhuang Sect spread throughout the three major sects of the Xianxia Sect, Qingmu Sect, and Pill Cauldron Sect.

It immediately left many Cultivators feeling shocked, dumbfounded, and incredulous.

"No way, our three major sects are actually merging? From now on, there will be no Xianxia Sect, Qingmu Sect, or Pill Cauldron Sect; there will only be the Xuanhuang Sect, and all Disciples must call themselves Disciples of the Xuanhuang Sect."

Someone could not help but swallow hard.

After hearing this news, they could hardly believe what their ears had heard.

"It must have been that pretty boy's suggestion."

"I knew long ago that he had the ambition of a wolf and wanted to swallow our three major sects."

"I didn't expect it to be exposed only now."

An Elder of the Qingmu Sect gritted their teeth, feeling very unwilling.

Because doing so is equivalent to abandoning the original orthodoxy.

How could they, as Cultivators who identify as members of the Qingmu Sect, face the ancestors of the Qingmu Sect?

"So what? Those who adapt to the times are the wise."

"Now Elder Zhou—no, that's not right, it should be Sect Master Zhou—is already a Nascent Soul Cultivator."

"And we are merely Foundation Establishment Cultivators; how could we possibly contend with a Nascent Soul Ancestor?"

"This is the reality of the Immortal Cultivation World: the weak are prey to the strong, and the strong are honored."

Someone sighed, feeling helpless and unable to change anything.

Because this is the cruel reality of the Immortal Cultivation World.

If one does not have sufficient strength, protecting the orthodoxy is an impossible task.

"That's right, and Sect Master Lin has already agreed to this matter, so what else can we say?"

"This is the decision of a Nascent Soul Ancestor; all we can do is obey."

"Exactly, exactly. To be honest, I don't think it's a big deal. Although we are nominally one sect, in reality, we are still divided into three branches, each performing its own duties."

"Besides, I think this is quite good; it's equivalent to us joining a Nascent Soul-level power."

"Sect Master Zhou has a boundless future. Forming a Nascent Soul at a hundred years old, he is a heaven-sent talent. Looking across the entire Canglan Sea, he is a genius among geniuses. In the future, he might even have the hope of becoming a Transformation God."

"Even if he doesn't become a Transformation God, becoming a Great Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage is a certainty. At the very least, Sect Master Zhou can live for over a thousand years and protect the sect for a millennium."

"If he can become a Transformation God, then our Xuanhuang Sect will be a Transformation God sect. This is something our ancestors could never have imagined; I reckon our predecessors wouldn't be able to blame us."

"Blame my foot! If they had the chance to join a Transformation God sect, they probably would have betrayed their sect without hesitation. It's just that in their era, they didn't have such an opportunity."

"In that case, it seems everyone doesn't hold too many opposing opinions."

"Need you ask? How could we possibly oppose it? Should we betray the sect and leave the Three-Star Island Group? If we really left, I'm afraid we would die in this sea area the moment we stepped out. Without the protection of a Nascent Soul Ancestor, do you really think we are safe?"

Numerous Cultivators discussed the matter.

Although at the beginning they were very dissatisfied with this decision and felt that they shouldn't merge into the Xuanhuang Sect, an arm cannot twist a thigh, and in the end, they accepted this resolution.

After all, this was the decision of a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

And a Nascent Soul Ancestor is like an emperor; a ruler's word is final and carries immense weight.

It was not for Foundation Establishment Elders like them to oppose anything.

If they angered the Nascent Soul Ancestor, they would likely perish the very next day, and it might even implicate their families.

They were not the type of unyielding people.

Naturally, they would not do something like opposing a Nascent Soul Ancestor.

It was just a bit of grumbling; they would soon accept their fate.

Several days later.

The main body was still reciting poetry and enjoying life with his Dao Companions, and holding the Nascent Soul ceremony, as well as the Xuanhuang Sect's founding ceremony.

However, his clone had taken action, silently sneaking into the Transformation God Relic.

Clearly, even though several years had passed, these Nascent Soul Cultivators were still trapped within the Five-Tier Array.

To this day, they still could not find an opportunity to leave.

If Zhou Sui did not intend to let them go, he could likely imprison them for a lifetime.

Until their Longevity was exhausted.

"According to the indication of the Object Seeking Gu, the Creation Jade Dew Water is on these Nascent Soul Cultivators."

"No way, it's actually on the Piaomiao Palace Master Ye Feirou. That is quite a coincidence."

At this moment, Zhou Sui rubbed his chin. Based on the knowledge of the Object Seeking Gu, he quickly found the specific location of the Creation Jade Dew Water, which pointed directly at Piaomiao Palace Master Ye Feirou.

"It is also time to release these fellows."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

The reason he had trapped these Nascent Soul Cultivators before was that he was worried they would be detrimental to the Three-Star Island Group while he was forming his Nascent Soul, or perhaps even invade the Three-Star Island Group.

But things were different now.

He had already successfully formed his Nascent Soul, so naturally, he was not afraid of these Nascent Soul Cultivators coming to cause trouble in the Three-Star Island Group again.

Therefore, they no longer posed a major threat.

Moreover, there was no enmity between them; he couldn't just kill all these Nascent Soul Cultivators.

If he did that, it would only benefit that group of Sea Clan Cultivators.

After all, the entire Canglan Sea was not just inhabited by the Human Race; there were other races of living beings.

The boundless sea area of the Human Race still required Nascent Soul Cultivators to guard it.

If he killed these human Nascent Soul Cultivators, he didn't know how long it would take to make up for the loss.

Of course, most importantly, he still needed to repair the island's Five-Tier Array.

After the passage of long years, the Five-Tier Array on the island was in a damaged state, and many array bases needed to be repaired.

Especially the Eight Desolations Demon Sealing Array.

The repair of this Five-Tier Superior Array was imperative.

Otherwise, if the Transformation God demon inside escaped, it would surely cause devastation to all living things.

In the entire Canglan Sea, there was no telling how many people would be able to survive.

Therefore, letting these Nascent Soul Cultivators stay on the island would also delay his progress in repairing the Eight Desolations Demon Sealing Array.

"However, I can't let these fellows off easily either."

"They can leave if they want, but they must pay a price."

"Right, I can just happen to extort some Top-grade Spirit Stones from these Nascent Soul Cultivators."

"And a large amount of precious Fourth-Tier materials, or even Fifth-Tier materials."

"After all, it is all to repair these arrays; the wool must come from the sheep's back."

"I am doing this entirely to protect the Canglan Sea; they cannot possibly expect to pay nothing at all."

Zhou Sui stroked his chin and immediately made a decision.

…………

At this very moment, the many Nascent Soul Cultivators staying in the Transformation God Relic were feeling a bit desperate.

Because they had already been trapped in this place for several years, and they could not even find any hope of escaping.

Facing a Fifth-tier trap array, and a Fifth-tier trap array that was being presided over by someone at that.

It was simply not something they could contend with.

If things continued like this, they would likely be trapped here for a lifetime.

"Who exactly is it that has trapped us here?"

"That fellow has kept us trapped here for several years; what exactly is the purpose?"

"They won't speak with us, nor do they intend to kill us; what is the enemy's goal?"

"Could it be that a descendant of the Kurong Sect has truly entered this relic and taken control of the Five-Tier Array here?"

The expressions of the many Nascent Soul Cultivators were extremely unsightly.

In fact, they had also tried to talk to the mastermind behind the scenes, but no matter how they shouted, no one responded.

It was as if they themselves were trapped within the array.

If that were the case, it would be even more terrifying.

This meant that they basically had no hope of escaping.

Just at this moment, a mysterious and unfathomable voice suddenly drifted over, sinking into the depths of every Nascent Soul Cultivator's sea of consciousness: "Having been trapped for such a long time, I believe you are all clear-headed now. If you wish to leave the territory of my Kurong Sect, it is not impossible, but you must pay a price."

The person speaking was naturally Zhou Sui.

He was pretending to be a descendant of the Kurong Sect.

What?!

Once these words were spoken, the many Nascent Soul Cultivators were simply ecstatic; they were not afraid that this relic was being controlled by someone, they were afraid that there was no one behind this relic at all.

Now that they saw it, it turned out the Transformation God Relic had indeed long been controlled by a descendant of the Kurong Sect.

It was their own fault for running over here so eagerly; that was purely falling into the enemy's trap and seeking their own deaths.

"Who exactly are you, and what do you want to do to us?"

The leader of the Xuanyin Sect, Qiqing Mojun, asked.

Although he had been trapped for several years, he was not impetuous, and his Dao Heart remained firm.

"What do I want to do to you?"

"You have this backwards."

"You all ran into my Kurong Sect's territory, looting and taking things, and you still dare to ask what I want to do."

Zhou Sui said indifferently.

"This!"

Hearing these words, the many Nascent Soul Cultivators were speechless and had nothing to say.

Normally, this was indeed the case; they had trespassed into the Kurong Sect's territory, looting Spirit Medicine everywhere and seizing Kurong Sect techniques—that was practically declaring war on the Kurong Sect.

Even if the other party wiped them all out, it would be a matter of course.

The problem was, how were they to know that a descendant of the Kurong Sect was still alive?

They had originally thought the Kurong Sect had long since disappeared into the long river of history, and that this was an ownerless relic.

So they could loot the Treasure inside as they pleased; after all, it was all ownerless property.

But who could have imagined that a descendant of the Kurong Sect would actually still exist?

Of course, as Cultivators, they naturally did not care about some descendant of the Kurong Sect.

When out in the world, one still had to rely on strength.

If the other party's strength were low, they would certainly not say a word and would immediately strike to kill.

The problem was that the other party controlled a Five-Tier Great Array.

Being inside the array, they were completely no match.

In that case, they were at a disadvantage and had to be subservient and humble.

"It is indeed our fault for rashly entering the Kurong Sect's territory."

"So it is only normal to provide some reasonable compensation."

"I wonder what you want?"

The master of the Xuanbao Pavilion, Tiansuan Daoren, asked.

He had completely accepted his fate; if he could pay to settle the matter, then he was willing to pay.

After all, his life was still quite precious, and he could not fall in this place.

Moreover, listening to the other party's tone, it was clear that this matter could be solved with money.

Since it could be solved with money, then everything was not a big problem.

After all, who had more money than their Xuanbao Pavilion?

"Not bad, as expected of Tiansuan Daoren, truly quick-witted."

"Since that is the case, I will put forward my demands."

"If you agree, you can leave this place."

"If you do not agree, then stay here forever; don't even think about getting out in this lifetime."

Zhou Sui spoke again, and then put forward his conditions.
