Chapter 525 – Dungeon Change
Chapter 525 – Dungeon Mutiny
Zhou Yu’s tirade continued.
“Zhou Li, you devil! With such cruel and bloody methods, how is it different from an evil cultivator? What I regret the most is pleading for you back then!”
Zhou Li was unimpressed and flexed his fingers.
A ray of fire flew out from between her fingers and landed on Chang Sheng’s skeleton, instantly burning it into a cloud of ashes.
“What I cultivate is originally the Way of Devouring. As long as I can obtain power, I naturally have to devour it by any means necessary.
What is evil and what is positive? The so-called good and evil are just rules set by human cultivators.”
Zhou Li snorted coldly, unimpressed with Zhou Yu’s statement.
“You claim to be a righteous cultivator, but I see that what you are doing is no better than what I, the so-called evil, have done.”
“You will be punished by heaven and get retribution, you are complacent for a moment, can you be complacent for a lifetime? I’ll see how you can get through the Four Nine Thunder Tribulation!”
Zhou Yu was so indignant that he couldn’t wait for a thunderbolt to descend right now and strike Zhou Li to death.
Zhou Li let out a heated laugh, not bothering to talk to Zhou Yu, and headed towards the dungeon.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Zhou Family’s several YuanYing real people were in seclusion, and the old man was away, she had to feed her babies as soon as possible in order to get away.
Just as Zhou Li was moving, Xu Chuniang inside the Zhou Family Ancestral Hall had already finished looking at the formation diagram and scouted the formation over.
There was a charter for how to reinforce the formation.
After a moment’s thought, she took out the Sea Walking Order and once again sent a message to Zhou Xing.
This time, Zhou Xing replied quickly.
“My family head and I are on our way back, please wait a moment, Fellow Daoist Xu, we’ll be back soon.”
After Xu Chuniang sent out the materials needed to reinforce the formation, she was about to put away the Sea Walking Order when she suddenly heard a faint scream.
A sense of alarm rose in her heart, and her figure moved slightly, leaving the ancestral hall and sweeping towards the four directions.
As far as the eye could see, everything in the Zhou Family was as normal.
The scream from earlier seemed to be an illusion.
Xu Chuniang’s brows furrowed slightly, not letting her guard down just because of that.
She quietly probed out her Divine Sense towards a further distance, and still found nothing.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Xing and the Zhou Family Master returned to the ancestral hall.
Zhou Xing bowed his hand after delivering all of the formation materials.
“Fellow Daoist Xu has been waiting for a long time, please bear with me as there was a delay earlier. This is my grandfather and the current Zhou Family Head.”
Xu Chuniang received the formation materials and saluted towards the old man with an extraordinary demeanor to the side.
“Greetings, Family Master Zhou.”
“Hehe, little friend Xu doesn’t need to be polite. Earlier, I heard my Xing’er talk about Daoyou Xu, and when I saw him today, he is indeed a young and handsome man.”
The Zhou Family Lord looked around after exchanging pleasantries, slightly puzzled.
“How come I don’t see that girl Zhou Yu? Before I left, I entrusted her with the task of receiving Little Friend Xu, so I shouldn’t have slowed him down, right?”
A hint of disapproval flashed in Zhou Xing’s eyes, he was not in favor of the matter of his grandfather arranging for his aunt to receive Daoyou Xu.
It was just that his aunt was accustomed to acting in front of his grandfather, and was deeply trusted and valued by him.
If he rashly said that his aunt was wrong, he would instead leave someone to blame.
Xu Chuniang shook her head, “Fellow Daoist Zhou Yu led me to this ancestral hall and left after delivering the formation diagram.”
The Zhou Family Master pondered briefly and took out the Sea Walking Order to send a message to Zhou Yu, ordering her to come over to the ancestral hall.
Zhou Li received the message, the corners of her mouth curled into a smile, and after replying with a message, she snapped the Sea Walking Order to the side and waited quietly.
Zhou Yu sensed her thoughts and was terrified.
“Are you crazy? How dare you want to lay your hands on the old man? How can he say that, he is our father ……”
Zhou Li was in an extremely good mood and explained with her.
“It’s just laying hands on him, it’s not like we’re telling him to die. If he dies, the Zhou family will be in chaos, won’t it alarm those several YuanYing out of the gate?”
She was merely trying to control the Zhou Family’s master to make it easier to get away and reap some benefits in the process.
If she really alarmed those several YuanYing True Lords, she wouldn’t be able to leave even if she wanted to at that time. Testing out Zhou Li’s thoughts, Zhou Yu instead felt certain in her heart.
This sixth sister of hers was indeed bold!
As a late Jindan cultivator, Zhou Yu was clear about how many kilograms she weighed.
Almost half of her cultivation was piled up by pills, and her magic aptitude was even more sparse, with only a few artifacts to show for it.
But her father is different.
As the head of the family, not only was his cultivation solidified, his strength would not be weak.
If Zhou Li wanted to deal with the head of the family, he was still a bit short of the mark.
Zhou Yu’s mind floated, and as the two men struck out, it was her chance.
On the other side, after receiving the news, the Zhou Family Head’s eyes flashed with a hint of gravity as he turned towards Xu Chuniang.
“Little friend Xu, there are still important matters in my house, if there is anything else needed in the matter of reinforcing the array, just communicate with my grandson Zhou Xing.”
Xu Chuniang nodded slightly, took the materials and began to reinforce the formation.
Zhou Xing waited at the side, always feeling uneasy.
Grandpa had left with a grave expression, so something big couldn’t have happened in the mansion, right?
He thought for a while, but could not think of anything, so he could only force himself to calm his mind.
The Zhou family had three YuanYing True Lords in attendance, so even if something did happen, it could be resolved smoothly.
After the Zhou Family Master left, he quickly found Zhou Yu.
“Yu’er, you said that something went wrong with the cage holding Zhou Li, what exactly happened? It wouldn’t have been possible for her to escape, would it?”
For Zhou Li, his daughter, the Zhou Family Lord had a huge headache.
With the mistakes she had made, she should have been executed according to the clan rules.
Considering the bloodline affinity, the clan finally decided to leave Zhou Li alive, and sent her to the dungeon, confined for life.
“Zhou Yu” shook her head.
“That’s not true, it’s just that when I made my routine inspection today, I found that the formation in the dungeon, seemed to have been broken open at one corner. That Zhou Li most likely, wanted to break the formation and abscond.”
Hearing that it was only a corner of the formation that had been broken open, the Zhou Family Lord’s brows relaxed slightly.
“Take me to check.”
“Yes.”
“Zhou Yu” led the way ahead towards the dungeon.
Stepping into the dungeon, the Zhou Family Master looked around at the Zhou Family’s children guarding the dungeon and sensed a hint of something wrong.
He frowned, these people gave him a very odd feeling, but he couldn’t tell exactly what was odd.
Zhou Yu, who was leading the way, turned back, hiding the coldness in his eyes.
“Family Master, what’s wrong?”
“Nothing, continue leading the way.”
Without realizing it, House Master Zhou held the magic weapon in his hand.
“Zhou Yu” only acted as if he knew nothing and opened the door to the dungeon.
The Zhou Family Master took a deep breath and stepped in, ready to strike at any time.
In the dungeon, the cloaked female cultivator slowly raised her head, her eyes flickering as she stared at the newly appeared Zhou Family Master.
“Are you here to let me go?”
The Zhou Family Master shook his head, “The mistake you made is too great, the clan wants to imprison you for a lifetime, and I can’t make a decision.”
Zhou Li, who was hidden in his cloak, only calmly nodded his head when he heard this.
“In that case, then you can go to hell.”
As soon as the words fell, a long insect flew out and launched itself at the Zhou Family Lord.
