The Demon God King's son-in-law
CHAPTER 223 | Spirit Purification
Then Shen Long did as he got the instructions from the Great Priestess to do the purification of his spirit.
During the 2 hours Shen Long felt that power the longer it got stronger the more it pulled his spirit to come out of his body. It was fortunate that the instructions from the Great Priestess allowed him to still be able to keep his spirit from escaping his body.
Next, Shen Long controlled the incoming force as directed, and drained it out of his body.
It had been more than a day that he was inside the spirit purification pond. He continued to repeatedly draw energy from the pond, purify his spirit, and then re-emit that energy into the pond.
Until the second day appeared the Dragon shadow in the pool water is formed from the energy released by it. The shadow of the Water Dragon wriggled around and then rose to the ceiling of the cave and spread back into water spots like rain falling down on the cave floor.
Shen Long felt a change in his body, he felt his soul and spirit now become stronger than before. The strength of his mind became increased after doing the training.
“I didn't expect this pool to be so beneficial to train mind power” Shen Long murmured.
After 2 days of training, he regrouped with his friends who were at the residence of the White Skull sect. It appeared that Qian Wu had been freed by them coming together in the pavilion hall.
“Brother Qian, forgive us for making you suffer for this” Shen Long told Qian Wu.
“Brother Shen, even though we've fought before. Now being a friend is a must to help each other” Qian Wu said smiling
“Hahaha.. We are all friends” said General Liu while embracing Qian Wu and Shen Long together.
They also laughed together while enjoying a dish from the residence of the White Skull sect.
“Brother Qian, you better be the current head of the White Skull sect. We of the Sword of Hope sect will always support you” Shen Long said
“Thank you brother Shen. I will always be with the Sword of Hope sect fighting for the people of” Qian Wu said in his honor.
“Hahaha..” They laughed together in the pavilion hall of the White Skull sect.
“Brother Shen, there is one thing that has been my question to date” asked Qian Wu.
Shen Long smiled “Tell brother Qian, what do you want to ask?”
Qian Wu slightly narrowed her eyes looking towards Shen Long then sighed.
“How can your face still remain the same as it used to be when we met? While our faces are all here already 10 years older than back then.” Qian Wu said shaking her head.
Everyone in the hall was stunned to hear Qian Wu's question, they only realized that. Then everything looked towards Shen Long and Princess Shui who still looked young just like 10 years ago
“Ah, on the sky world gods are indeed different. It seems I have to remove my desire to become the in-law of a god” said Dong Fang Lei which made Shen Long's eyes twitch.
“Dad.!” yelled Dong Fang Yin who felt embarrassed because of his father's words.
Shen Long's face turned red because he had promised to marry Dong Fang Yin to get the dominator weapon belonging to the Holy Sword sect, but until now he had not carried it out.
Shen Long then looked towards Princess Shui. As if understanding Shen Long's intentions, Princess Shui smiled and nodded her head. Although his heart ached, yet he understood the feelings of all the women who were near Shen Long.
“I am willing” said the Holy Goddess at the very first to answer it.
Mu Rong and Chen Mulan also answered willingly, as did Gu Yan, Xie Lin and Dong Fang Yin.
Meanwhile, Shen Long glanced towards Princess Shui to wait for a response from him.
“I am also willing” said Princess Shui while smiling at her.
“Hahaha..the sect head of Shen Long completely defeated us in everything, strength and lady” god General Liu with a laugh
All the men present in the hall were laughing at Shen Long's face that had turned red because of it.
“Brother Shen completely snatched all the beautiful women from us” Qian Wu said with a smile
After Shen Long promised to marry them five more days at the Eternal Mountain Peak, all the women present became flowery. They feel happy about it. They returned to the top of the Eternal Mountain to prepare for the luxurious wedding ceremony of the head of the Sword of Hope sect.
After the departure of the Sword Hope sect people back to the Eternal Mountain, the former head of the White Skull sect Qian Shan was saved by the vice head of the Qian Fang sect from the sect prisoners.
Then the two of them went to the capital of the Middle Empire to report on the events in the White Skull sect and intended to avenge the Sword Hope sect.
Capital of the Middle Empire, Middle Emperor Zhong Jian was meeting with Eastern Emperor Dong Jue and South Emperor Nan Gong who had come to ask Middle Emperor Zhong Jian for help in overcoming the plague and famine in the Empire's territory The East and the Southern Empire.
Of course Middle Emperor Zhong Jian welcomed the arrival of those who already looked helpless to the point of having to ask for help from him.
“Brother Dong Jue and Brother Nan Gong, I will help you to overcome the problems in the eastern and southern imperial regions. But what will you give in return?” asked Middle Emperor Zhong Jian
The eyes of both South Emperor Nan Gong and Eastern Emperor Dong Jue twitched hearing the question they had already anticipated earlier. The strength of Middle Emperor Zhong Jian who was in the Eternal realm was far away with those who were in the Heavenly realm.
The strength of the troops and supporters of the various sects also far exceeded their previous strength. Especially at this time when the plague struck both empires.
If the Middle Empire was willing to attack them as well, they would be powerless to resist before, let alone now.
So currently giving up and giving power to the Middle Empire was the only way for them to survive and save the people from the plague.
“We understand Your Majesty, we are willing to give up power and serve the Middle” Empire they said in unison.
“Hahahaha.. I am really happy” shouted Emperor Zhong laughing happily.
“I will soon send help to help the people of the Eastern Empire and the Southern Empire overcome the plague” continued Middle Emperor Zhong Jian
“Thank you Your Majesty” sahut both Eastern Emperor and South Emperor almost simultaneously.
“Go, my help will soon come to your region” Middle Emperor Zhong Jian said
The two Eastern Emperors and the South Emperor then bid farewell to return to their respective Imperial territories.
