Chapter 1329: Chapter 499: The Fox Assuming the Tiger’s Power (Part 2)
Upon hearing this, Witch God’s tightly furrowed brow relaxed.
In this comparison, Zhou Xuan is evidently more important. In terms of combat strength, Jing Country isn’t lacking that much,
but a Mr. Shenji... a Young Master who can navigate among the Heavenly Fire Clan, "Heaven and Earth", and Heavenly God Level is unique to Jing Country.
The Witch God nodded and said: "Of course, the Young Master is more important."
Zhou Xuan smiled and continued: "When a Heavenly God dies, you, the Witch God, establish your authority, you become a true Witch God,
killing a Heavenly God makes other Heavenly Gods realize that you, the Witch God, are still the Witch God,
if you wish to kill someone, you can take their head; if you wish to protect someone, you can do so,
with these grand gestures, Jing Country’s dragons will have a leader. With your power, can Jing Country’s human realm have internal chaos again?"
These words hit the Witch God’s heart. For the first time, his colossal body looked down at Zhou Xuan, studying him carefully. After a while, he managed to squeeze out a sentence,
"Young Master, Young Master, are you a saint descended to earth? How in such a short time could you devise such a venomous plan!"
The Witch God said: "Let’s proceed as you suggested."
"Thank you, Old Witch, for making it possible."
Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "One Heavenly God Level life, in exchange for mine, I assure you, this will be your most successful gamble."
"No, this is not a gamble, gambling involves winning and losing, but betting on you doesn’t involve losing."
After exchanging glances for a while, the Witch God and Zhou Xuan both burst into hearty laughter, making Li Changxun watch enviously.
Li Changxun once again whispered to Yun Ziliang: "Ancestor Master, Ancestor Master, when can I be like the Mr. and have a lively conversation with the Witch God?"
"When you turn eighteen!"
"..." Li Changxun.
Li Changxun sighed: "Oh, Ancestor Master has turned mischievous, not saying in the next life but when I turn eighteen. The artistry of language here... masterfully handled by the Ancestor Master."
Everyone burst into laughter.
After the laughter, the Witch God said: "With your Young Master’s plan, the besiegement by the Heavenly Gods can certainly be resolved, but the situation with the Buddha Country is quite serious."
"How so?" Zhou Xuan asked.
The Witch God hurriedly recounted word for word the conversation Dream Realm Heavenly God had with Scattered Dao earlier.
After listening to the Buddha Country’s plan, Zhou Xuan scraped the tea lid on the tea, took a sip, and said,
"The Buddha Country people are indeed cunning... they infiltrated Jing Country, promoting the Elixir calamity in the Heavenly Dome; in the human world, they perform good deeds everywhere, aiming to control Jing Country’s Human Desire Power.
No wonder this nation is invincible among the Starry Sky, they indeed have some substance."
"Young Master, how do you propose we disrupt the Buddha Country’s plans?" The Witch God, impressed by Zhou Xuan’s previous plan, had a mild shock reverberating internally.
He now realized Zhou Xuan was a very resourceful person.
Zhou Xuan crossed his legs and said: "Regarding the Buddha Country’s promotion of the Elixir calamity, which I haven’t personally encountered, I currently have no strategy. However— the Buddha Country’s goodwill in the human world and their attempt to control the Wish Power, I might have encountered firsthand?"
"You’ve encountered it?"
"It’s just a gut feeling; whether that person is from the Buddha Country is still unclear." Zhou Xuan said.
Yun Ziliang asked from beside: "Who are you referring to?"
Zhou Xuan chuckled: "In Ping Shui Prefecture, there’s a temple with a Living Bodhisattva, known as Lady Lianhua. She’s an immortal from the Huang Family... My first lecture in life was held in that temple,
this Lady Lianhua has quite a reputation and performs good deeds, asking not for outcomes, which sounds quite similar to the Buddha Country people’s deeds."
The Witch God finished asking: "Do you intend to use Lady Lianhua as a breakthrough point?"
"Yes, in the next two days, I happen to need to return to Ping Shui Prefecture, settle Sister Cui and Hua Zi, and while I’m there, I’ll visit that old friend in the temple."
Zhou Xuan said: "After meeting Lady Lianhua, I’ll begin my journey to Yellow Field Prefecture. The merger of Yellow Field Prefecture and Jingchuan Prefecture might have significant connections with Buddha Country people."
He spoke clearly about his plans for the coming days, and the Witch God was even more satisfied, seeing how orderly and balanced Zhou Xuan’s actions were.
"Young Master, I placed my bets on you wisely."
"We’ll talk about validation later, Witch God, remember not to forget the plans we’ve discussed between us."
"I won’t forget."
The Witch God, satisfied, merged with Lord Jiu, clasped his fists together, and handed Zhou Xuan an object resembling a whistle-sized horn.
"What’s this?" Zhou Xuan asked.
"Young Master, this is one of Dream Realm Heavenly God’s attributes, ’Dream Horn’."
The Witch God said: "If this horn can merge with you, your dream realm can be greatly expanded."
Zhou Xuan quickly collected the horn into the Secret Realm, saying: "Thank you, Witch God."
"You wait; it won’t be long before ’Heaven and Earth’ sends someone to deliver ’Hundred Human Phenomena’ to you." The Witch God said: "For one person to hold two heavenly god attributes is exceedingly rare among the Human World Hall Disciples."
"Greedy, greedy." Zhou Xuan, with a businessman-like demeanor, clasped his fists and said.
"You are indeed a mischievous spirit." The Witch God smiled and with that, vanished.
After the Witch God left, Zhou Xuan called out to Li Changxun and said: "Old Li, it’s time for you to use your methods."
"Use my methods? What methods am I to use?" Li Changxun was bewildered.
Zhou Xuan said: "Weren’t we clear during our chat with the Witch God? He’s to spread rumors, issue divine decrees, preventing other Heavenly God’s to act against me.
And for us, will seek protection from the Heavenly Fire Clan. Now, as I seek refuge, naturally having you, a Heavenly Vault God Level person, notify the Heavenly Dome... that I, Zhou Xuan, am in trouble."
