Divine Brilliance

Chapter 102: Chapter 102 Who is Dumb?

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Zong Yuan’s face was so dark and gloomy, his eyes stared at that bottle of medicine with a burning desire.

Zong Shou’s Broken Blade Sword could allow him to comprehend an even stronger spear strength, while this Human Pinnacle Pill could help solidify his own foundations.

No matter which item it was, it was a dream item for a Xiantian master like him.

He silently put that spear back into its cloth cover before sitting down once more. That black-shirted man did the same, returning his sword back to his waist.

Although the Human Pinnacle Pill was good, it was something that Zu Renkuang took out. The Broken Blade Sword was something he drooled over, but it was something Zu Renkuang wanted.

In Donglin Cloud Continent, apart from those hidden sects, which power could be stronger than Lingyun Sect?

Even if he didn’t fear them, this wasn’t the place or time, nor was he the opponent of this Zu Renkuang.

There were so many Xiantian masters here, who dared to behave preposterously in front of him?

Zong Shou sighed, looking towards the pill bottle. After a short moment he shook his head without any interest, “This Human Pinnacle Pill is good, but it is useless for me! If you want to trade item for item, I would prefer beast crystals or same Grade beast spirit stones!”

Since he couldn’t kill people to establish dominance, it wasn’t too bad if he was able to exchange for some items from this person.

That Zu Renkuang was slightly startled, his brow furrowing, “I know that Prince is a Dual Meridian Body and can’t cultivate, however your two servants can use these two Human Pinnacle Pills...”

However once his eyes swept past Yin Yang and Chuxue, his face showed an understanding expression, “So that was the case. One’s foundations is so strong he doesn’t need outside help, the other has already eaten one a few days ago. No wonder you are uninterested in my pill!”

Taking in a deep breath, Zu Renkuang smiled, “How about adding in this item? Although the Prince can’t use it, these few items added together could barely be equal to this Human Pinnacle Pill...”

His sleeve opened up and he took out a silver white crystal, and threw it, along with that pill bottle, into the suite.

Zong Shou accepted it, not taking a look as he threw the Broken Blade Sword to Zu Renkuang casually, knowing that this was already the most that this person could offer, he had already earned a lot, and that he couldn’t get any more out of it. If he still wanted to raise the price, then this Zu Renkuang might just end up leaving.

After throwing the sword out, he had the time to look at the item in his hand. He didn’t bother to open the pill bottle as he knew that it was definitely a real thing. With how large the Lingyun Sect was, they didn’t need to resort to cheating others.

What he cared about was that crystal. Its surface was silver-white and shining, very eye-catching. Touching it, it felt like amber.

It should be a spirit stone, as high as Grade Six. He could see a silver bear, opening up its arms and roaring, sealed within. On its surface were ten runes, both simple and profound, the aura restrained within like a normal spirit stone.

So it was a Protector Spirit Beast, sealing a Grade Six beast spirit perfectly within the spirit stone. Its Grade only dropped by one, and the ability of this beast from when it was alive was probably only decreased by half.

The person who made this spirit beast was probably Day Wandering Realm or above! Most probably they were good at the way of the talisman...

No wonder Zu Renkuang said that he probably couldn’t use this item. Normally speaking, to recruit and tame this Protector Spirit Beast he had to at least be at the Night Wandering Realm.

Zong Shou’s eyes shone slightly as he stowed the spirit stone into his sleeves. He smiled towards Chuxue, “Xue’er come over, open your mouth, ah!”

Chuxue instinctively opened her peach lips, but after a moment thought back to two days ago. She frowned immediately and moved beside Zong Shou hesitantly, bitterly saying, “Young Master, do I still need to run?”

Actually that Human Pinnacle Pill was really sweet, sweeter than candy. But thinking about the torture after that, Chuxue was filled with worry.

“Why you saying such useless things!” Zong Shou directly kicked her leg, her whole body numbed up, and her mouth subconsciously opened. A red pill was thrown inside.

She tasted the pill carefully before she swallowed it. It was indeed really delicious, but she still needed to bargain now. “Young Master I will run, I don’t want to learn your Energy Leading Technique!”

Zong Shou threw that pill bottle towards Yin Yang. After the latter took it, he directly broke the porcelain bottle and swallowed the remaining Human Pinnacle Pill.

This item was really precious and a dream for numerous martial cultivators in the Body Chakra level. Bringing it along with him was just asking for trouble.

Using it in front of everyone would instead end such thoughts from the other people. This Human Pinnacle Pill didn’t have much of an effect for him, but it could save him around two years of cultivation.

In the next suite, Zong Ling’s face turned red as he looked on. “Zong Shou, you really are crazy! A Human Pinnacle Pill, even if it is split up and shared, can help make four or five Xiantian masters for our Sky Fox Zong Family! Now you let these two servants waste it! I will complain to the Zong Family elders, and you will have to give them an explanation...”

Zong Yuan’s eyes were filled with fury, his eyes were spitting flames. The veins within his hands exploded out, he was obviously raging.

Zong Shou’s lips raised up, thinking to himself, If I don’t use it now, should I wait until people come to snatch it from me? I must give it up to you and that Purple Lightning Spear, and you will be happy, right? In the future you will show mercy to me, right?

Not bothering to care about him, Zong Shou looking towards the black shirted man, smiling, “Oh right! Uncle Yin, do you remember someone saying that I was trying to ruin my Family, that I am stupid. Do you think that I, Zong Shou, am stupid?”

When Yin Yang heard that, his lips raised up too, bowing towards Zong Shou. “Prince isn’t stupid, using one Black Wave Sword and selling it for fifty times the price. The person who said the Prince is stupid is the true stupid person!”

Zong Ling’s face turned green and white. Out of everyone present, he had scolded the most and he had done so right in front of Zong Shou’s face.

He was astonished, unsure whether or not Zong Shou was just lucky, or if he truly knew that the sword was special, which was why he bid ten thousand beast crystals for it.

In the hall below, that black-shirted aged man was also really gloomy. Before this, he was really delighted and gleeful, but now he was a total joke. He wasn’t willing to stay for another moment, scoffing coldly before taking his leave.

The old man chairing the auction also had a really ugly expression. His breathing was uneven and his face was ashen white, so regretful that he wanted to smash his chest.

When they placed this Black Wave Sword on auction, why didn’t they think about appraising it further? He didn’t dare to even touch those pearls and runes in case he spoiled the spiritual sword. However, asking someone who knew such items to appraise it could have been done.

Two Human Pinnacle Pills and one Grade Five spirit beast against ten thousand Grade Three beast crystals, how could they be compared? They didn’t need to even sell the sword, just giving it to the Lingyun Sect would have allowed his family to be prosperous for many decades.

That Zu Renkuang stashed the Broken Blade Sword with a joyous expression on his face. After hearing those words, he burst out laughing, “Prince Zong Shou, you truly are a brilliant person! The people who said you are stupid are the truly stupid ones! You have gathered treasures and people who definitely eye them. Although without the Human Pinnacle Pill, many spirit masters would want that Grade Five spirit beast and they will kill for it. How about this: within half a month if you don’t exit Cloud Saint City I can ensure your safety. You will have enough time to deal with that item!”

Zong Shou’s brows rose up. Hearing his tone, he probably didn’t know what happened at Pill Spirit Mountain, which was why he said those words.

He politely nodded his head as thanks for the kindness. It was impossible for him to act like he was on Cloud Nine.

That Zu Renkuang was a little surprised, but he didn’t take it to heart, looking around at the tea house before directly leaving.

Zong Shou had no reason to stay anymore, the spiritual sword he wanted was already in his hands. He had also received two Human Pinnacle Pills and one Grade Five spirit beast.

Although he was a little interested in the mutated Grade Four Cloud Whale baby, it wasn’t much compared to the Grade Five spirit beast in his hands.

The eyes of everyone in the tea house yearned to tear him to shreds. No matter how thick his skin was, he wasn’t willing to stay here.

When they left the tea house and walked out onto the streets, it was already late at night.

Within Zong Shou’s smiling expression was a solemn killing intent.

“Uncle Yin, what is that Yunxia Seven Swords about?”

“It refers to the seven sword experts within Yunxia Mountain, who are all Xiantian masters. Some say that one or two of them have stepped into the Martial Ancestor Realm. That person just now was known as Ren Qianchou, his title is ‘Deceitful Sword’. Although he is the head of the Seven Swords, that is only because he is the oldest. In these two years it is said that his sword improved greatly, and even some four meridian Earth Chakra Ancestors couldn’t beat him. Although I have broken through to Xiantian, I am not his opponent. Even after that Human Pinnacle Pill, it is far from enough!”

As he said that, Yin Yang finally couldn’t help but add, “Prince, you were too reckless. Even if you knew that sword was mysterious, you could have waited until we left. Why did you take it out and put us at risk? We were lucky today that the Zu Renkuang helped to deter and threaten everyone. If he wasn’t there, I really can’t imagine what would have happened.”

These words had been building up in his chest for a bit, and to say them now made him feel much better.

Zong Shou didn’t react, looking forwards with his eyes squinted. Yin Yang’s wariness rose as he followed Zong Shou’s line of sight and looked over. He was astonished.

That black shirted man who had left a step earlier than them was walking over, his hand on his sword, giving off a threatening aura. The people travelling on the streets veered away from him. Only when he was ten steps away from the three of them did he stop.

Calmly looking at Zong Shou, he broke out in a cold laugh after a moment. “I will remember what happened today. Within half a month, I will take your life!”
