Sky Defying Genius Cultivator
Chapter 31: Exit the Palace

Shortly after the sound of the explosion, Zhishu opened his eyes in annoyance, "huh, it only went up one level."

Suddenly without realizing it, Wu Huan was darting towards him with a fist that was right towards his stomach.Manik Zhishu's eyes immediately shrank, he no longer had time to dodge, "what the fuck?!"

Brakk!

Zhishu instantly bounced and hit the wall hard, "what happened to you, huh?! Well, this hurts to know."

Zhishu stroked his head slowly and looked towards the back where his body hit the wall, "look, even this sturdy wooden wall to the point of cracking.You really want to kill me?!"

"You asked for it yourself!" wu Huan shouted with fiery eyes.

"What's? When did I ask to die?!" reply Zhishu with a voice no less powerful.

"Em... previously the concubine's mother said she would hit Kak Zhishu if she leveled up.Currently because Zhishu's sister leveled up, then the concubine's mother hit Kak Zhishu.Not so, the concubine's mother?" clearly Zuo Ling innocently.

"What's? Why so?"

Wu Huan looked at Zhishu as he massaged his temple slowly, "People with talent like you will only spoil the balance in the cultivation world.. children of your age in the Shenzen Empire will be no more talented while you are here."

"Oh, so you're jealous of me?" zhishu asked in a mocking tone.

Wu Huan clenched his hands, now that his emotions were rife, "if everyone knew about you rising 5 levels in just one day, then they would definitely also feel ENVious! YOU UNDERSTAND?!"

"Hahaha, yes-yes I understand." said Zhishu while scratching his nape.

Looking at Zhishu's uncomfortable behavior, Wu Huan tried to temper his emotions by taking a deep breath.He this time showed a sad expression, "from the small I have always been regarded as a genius and the pride of the Wu family, but as soon as I saw you, I was like there was nothing.If you were my age, I'm sure I wasn't your match."

Wu Huan smiled sincerely towards Zhishu, "you are destined to grow among the stars."

Zhishu returned Wu Huan's smile, "of course."

"Can you not be so confident?!"

"Confidence is part of my life."

Wu Huan took a deep breath again, "huh.it seems that it was me who had to give in.Then, you better sleep now, it's late.Look, Zuo Ling has even fallen asleep."

"Alright I'm sleepy too, last night I couldn't sleep" Zhishu said as he rubbed his eyes that were already sore from drowsiness, "not being able to sleep, more precisely not sleeping at all."

"Then sleep until you are satisfied tonight" Wu Huan said as he walked out of the room Zhishu occupied, not forgetting that he also closed the door again.

After Wu Huan left, Zhishu immediately dropped his body on the mattress that was wide enough.Just beside him, Zuo Ling slept soundly until his saliva dripped.

"He slept very well." said Zhishu while slightly away from Zuo Ling so that his body did not touch or nudge Zuo Ling's saliva.

It did not take long, Zhishu had fallen asleep soundly.He slept on the end of the mattress to be away from Zuo Ling's saliva, while it could be avoided why not? so thought Zhishu.

****

Sunlight began to sneak into Zhishu's room space through the cracks of the windows, disturbing the deep sleep of a beautiful girl with silver hair, there was also the sound of a beautiful bird chirping like a singing performance.

Zhishu blinked his eyes a few times, his eyes still looked faint and limp.He got up from his sleep and sat on the bed, pensive for a while without doing anything, just staring blankly in front.

Zhishu looked at Zuo Ling who was still asleep.From the outside was also still silent, there were only a few servants who were carrying water.

It must be very early in the morning, he thought.

"Roah..." Zhishu yawned while stretching his body.

"I'll leave the Palace now, while Zuo Ling hasn't woken up yet" Zhishu muttered as he walked slowly towards the door.

Outside the room, as he expected, Wu Huan was not there, seemingly still sleeping.

"You want to go now?" ask someone from behind who managed to break the silence in that place.

It was Wu Huan of course.It turns out he had woken up some time ago, he was in the kitchen to make his favorite tea as usual.

"Yes," Zhishu replied briefly, his mouth still stiff and lazy to speak.

"Yes, but don't forget our agreement."

Zhishu nodded in understanding, "3 more months, right?"

"Now it's been 2 months 3 weeks."

"All right it's up to you.I'm gone, don't miss me!" zhishu said with a horse smile.

"Well.who's gonna miss the monsters? We will also meet in a few months."

Zhishu turned his back to Wu Huan, he walked out towards the main door of the Lotus Pavilion, not forgetting that he also waved his hand, "yes, you said it yourself.Until you meet again, you will see me again, I send a greeting to Zuo Ling huh!"

Wu Huan exhaled a coarse breath, "yes."

Krieet...

Zhishu closed the main door of the Lotus Pavilion slowly, after Zhishu left, now only Wu Huan remained in the room.

"Why does it feel lonely, I seem to have lost something important" Wu Huan murmured, his gaze fixed on the main door that was several meters in front of him.

On the other hand, Zhishu was already outside the Palace, he was looking at the state of the capital that was.?. deserted? Even Qin city was much more crowded when compared to this Mian Lai city.

"Sepi..are the inhabitants so afraid of the robbers who roam? But they were only low-level Cultivators, why didn't the Emperor order some cultivator warriors to deal with this matter?" muttered Zhishu while looking at the surroundings.

Zhishu was currently in the town square, where it should be full of sellers hawking his wares and buyers spending his money.

But at this time, it was quiet, there were only a few people who passed by, it also seemed that because there was something urgent, so they dared to leave the house.

But there are also some people, too, it seemed like nobles or wealthy merchants were passing through the square casually as they were surrounded and guarded by cultivators who were on average still in the realm of fighters and the highest ones were at the realm of the Realm of Level Generals 5.

Zhishu shrugged his shoulders, "yes, what do I care, now I just need to go to the Alchemist sect and help Master Li Shao make pills.. and after that I will ask him to teach me how to forge souls quickly and effectively" Zhishu said cheerfully as he aspired to become a respected and praised high-level alchemist.
