Chapter 17: Zhou Tong: Kneel Before Me!
“Such bold words, you really dare to daydream in broad daylight!”
Mo Liushu and Chen Ling’er’s faces instantly turned ugly.
Ge Hongqiu and Jiang Yuyao were directly furious, pointing at Zhou Tong’s nose and cursing him out.
These two conditions, neither of them could accept.
For many years, they had looked down on Zhou Tong from the bottom of their hearts; in their eyes, Zhou Tong was even inferior to a servant.
Forcing them to kneel before Zhou Tong was more painful than killing them.
“You can forget about the Seven-Star Crimson Lotus; that is a sacred object of the sect, and there is only one. It’s priceless and not something you’re qualified to even touch!”
Mo Liushu said coldly, “As for making them kneel before you, I can only say you’re not worthy. Think of another condition!”
“Hehe…”
Zhou Tong couldn’t help but sneer, “Do you really think I’m negotiating with you? Wrong! This is a notice and also an order. You only get to choose to comply or not. There’s never an option to change.”
“Are you threatening me?”
Mo Liushu exuded an aura of danger.
“Of course, can’t you see how simple that is?”
Zhou Tong replied without flinching, causing a shiver in their hearts. This young man was indeed tough; it seemed that hatred could truly last a lifetime.
“Beast, do you really think we can’t deal with you? I would rather kneel before a dog than submit to you!”
Ge Hongqiu and her companions could no longer endure it; in the past, Zhou Tong wouldn’t have dared to be so arrogant. He wouldn’t even have dared to fart!
“Then you can wait for your beloved junior apprentice brother to turn into a dead dog. I have plenty of time, but he won’t last much longer.”
Zhou Tong said casually. At this moment, Tang Qi was in deep trouble, his skin cracking all over, resembling a bloodied person, nearly on the brink of death.
But Zhou Tong knew this guy wouldn’t die so easily. In his previous life, not only was he favored by fate, but he also had a powerful soul hidden within him, possessing numerous hidden cards.
But today, in front of so many people, if he used his cards, it would not only expose him but also consume a lot of energy. He absolutely wouldn’t strike unless it was absolutely necessary.
Hearing this, Mo Liushu’s face changed repeatedly, her anger already boiling in her heart.
“Do you think killing Xiao Qi would make me take you as my disciple again?”
“Forget it; even if you kneel and beg me to be your master, I wouldn’t want someone like you!”
Zhou Tong retorted mercilessly, showing no mercy.
“Alright, alright… Since this is your choice, I hope you won’t regret it in the future.”
Mo Liushu took a deep breath, her gaze turning cold.
She turned to her three female disciples and said, “I accept your condition.”
“Master!”
Jiang Yuyao and Ge Hongqiu’s faces changed dramatically: “Are you really going to make us kneel to this waste?”
“What? Not willing? Or do you want to watch Tang Qi die? It seems your feelings for him aren’t that deep after all!”
Zhou Tong laughed from the side, causing their expressions to change. But soon, Jiang Yuyao revealed a mocking look.
“I get it; you’re jealous of the junior apprentice brother, wanting to see how far we can go for him!”
“Then I’ll just tell you, you’re not even worth a single hair of the junior brother. For trash like you, even dying immediately wouldn’t matter to us, and to save the junior brother, we could even give up our dignity!”
She said, getting moved by her own words, then gracefully kneeled before Zhou Tong, her face still carrying a taunting expression.
Seeing this, Zhou Tong could only feel speechless, revealing a look more disgusting than having eaten a pound of flies.
“Haha… It seems you were hurt by the elder sister’s words. You’re truly pitiful, always comparing yourself to the junior brother, yet you’ll never measure up!”
As she spoke, she also kneeled down, as if it was an honorable act.
Chen Ling’er quickly followed, the moment her knees touched the ground, she maintained an air of superiority, as if granting a favor to Zhou Tong.
Looking at their abstract expressions, Zhou Tong raised his hand slowly with a strange smile.
“Slap! Slap! Slap!”
Three slaps, one for each, not very harmful but extremely insulting.
“Keep your eyes to yourself; it’s disgusting me.”
“You hit me again, and it’s the second time! How dare you!”
Chen Ling’er found it hard to believe. Zhou Tong clearly admired her, yet he had the audacity to do this. Such ways to get her attention were too despicable! She vowed in her heart never to give Zhou Tong a good look again!
“Slap!!”
Zhou Tong didn’t hold back and gave her another slap.
“Ugly people cause trouble!”
As he said this, he wiped his hands with a handkerchief, as if he had touched something dirty.
Seeing this scene, Chen Ling’er felt an immense shame and could no longer hold herself up, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
“Are you done?” Mo Liushu asked coldly.
“Of course not. Hand over the Seven-Star Crimson Lotus, and don’t make me say it a second time.”
“Hmph!”
This time Mo Liushu didn’t hesitate, waved her hand, and a colorful lotus appeared out of thin air, flying in front of Zhou Tong.
Everyone’s eyes widened. Many looked at the lotus with greedy eyes, wishing they could claim it for themselves.
This was a rare sacred object in the world; not only could it increase cultivation, but it also had the ability to bring the dead back to life. Each petal was worth a fortune.
“Such a good thing, refreshing to behold, take good care of it!”
Zhou Tong casually handed it over to the Little Demoness and gave her a look.
The Little Demoness understood, taking the lotus into her spatial ring while discreetly crushing a piece of jade amulet.
“Now you can repair the formation, right?” Mo Liushu urged.
“Of course!”
Zhou Tong said easily. For others, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven; for him, it was a piece of cake.
He saw a brilliant light radiating from his brow, which quickly turned into visible ripples spreading toward the high platform.
“This is a spiritual wave… hiss…”
Ying Shaoxuan gasped in shock. Except for him, the people around had expressions of indifference, not noticing the hidden mystery.
This spiritual power seemed plain but was exceptionally long and contained indescribable might, detectable only by those of profound cultivation!
The effects were evident. Under the cleansing of this spiritual light, the broken formation actually restored itself at the same time, and the Heavenly Dao Eye in the sky returned to normal.
“Boom!!”
Moments later, a magnificent sword aura surged from Tang Qi, evidently experiencing a qualitative leap, breaking through a certain limit.
” hahaha… I did it!”
He laughed loudly. With the disappearance of the Heavenly Dao Eye, his injuries instantly healed.
Great! As expected of my disciple!
Mo Liushu finally let out a sigh of relief, then looked at Zhou Tong and the Little Demoness, the surrounding air suddenly turning much colder.
“Hand over the Seven-Star Crimson Lotus, and I might consider going easy on you!”
As soon as this was said, the surroundings fell silent.
People knew that the Jade Purity Sect was planning to turn against them!
