Chapter 208 - Sea-Freezing Stone

“Is my grand-daughter nearby?”

The black-robed woman, who was the Crazy Old Woman, asked with a frown. A tinge of worry appeared on her beautiful face.

Zhou Xuanji did not reply but asked, “Jiang Wudi has searched for you everywhere. Do you want to follow me to see Jiang Xue?”

It was his first time seeing the Crazy Old Woman. Since he did not know her character, he had to be careful of ambush.

“What’s your relationship with her?”

The black-robed lady asked. Zhou Xuanji was very young, and his age was around the same as Jiang Xue’s. She could not overthink.

“I’m her fiancee.”

Zhou Xuanji answered honestly. I can’t just say that I’m her friend!

The black-robed lady frowned and berated, “How dare you? Have I agreed with this marriage?”

“Why is there a need for you to agree?” Zhou Xuanji asked.

He was furious with the Crazy Old Woman, so he did not speak pleasantly at all.

Seeing that this woman had a position in Tanhua Sect, he felt pity for Jiang Xue.

It was not worth it for Jiang Xue to think for her always.

“I’m her only family. Of course, I have a say in her marriage!”

The black-robed lady said with a deep voice. The more she looked at Zhou Xuanji, the more Zhou Xuanji looked like a prick in her eyes.

If it wasn’t for the fact that she could not defeat Zhou Xuanji, she would have attacked him already.

“You left her when she was six, and with a huge debt. Your debtors came to her and wanted to sell her to the brothel. Are you even fit to be considered her family?”

Zhou Xuanji snorted coldly, “Why did you listen to your elder’s decision in the Jiang Clan, and participate in an arranged marriage? You did whatever you wanted. Why can’t Jiang Xue do it?”

“You…”

The black-robed lady was so furious that her body shook. The other demonic cultivators did not look pleasant either.

“I don’t care. I will not allow it!” She gnashed her teeth at how Zhou Xuanji revealed her vices.

Zhou Xuanji heard her and frowned.

He totally did not expect the Crazy Old Woman to be such a person.

She wanted to sever his relationship with Jiang Xue even without knowing him?

“It seems like the Jiang Clan’s descendent has joined our Tanhua Sect.”

A burst of cold laughter came from a mountain top nearby. Everyone looked up.

They saw Zong Kuiming standing on the mountain top and looking at them with ridicule.

The evil cultivators were alarmed and readied their enchanted artifacts nervously.

When they saw this, Zong Kuiming took out a crimson token and cursed, “I’m the Life-devouring Demon Chief. Do you want to fight me? A bunch of unruly sons of b*tches!”

The crimson token was the size of a palm and was carved with strange blossoms that were surrounded with strands of blood.

The hundreds of demonic cultivators were very shocked. They knelt down immediately, and so did the black-robed lady.

“Demonic Chief!”

They cried out with an uneasy tone.

The Demonic Chief was second to the Sect Lord. They offended Zong Kuiming by what they did, and even if Zong Kuiming were to kill them all, no one would object.

Zhou Xuanji frowned. Why is this guy following me everywhere?

Zhou Xuanji landed before Zhou Xuanji and chuckled, “Vice Sect Lord, we meet again. What a coincidence.”

Vice Sect Lord!

The black-robed lady and the hundreds of demonic cultivators were so frightened, trembling with fear.

Despair and fear welled up in their hearts.

Not only did they offend the Demonic Chief, but they also offended the Vice Sect Lord…

Although they had never seen the Vice Sect Lord of Tanhua Sect, they had heard of him before.

Top genius in the Northern Wilderness Region, Zhou Xuanji!

Sword God Zhou!

The black-robed lady looked down, but her expression changed drastically.

She felt regretful and embarrassed.

How was it possible that such a young man was unfit for her grand-daughter?

He was even better than she expected!

Better by 1,000 times!

“A coincidence? Do you think I will believe that?”

Zhou Xuanji rolled his eyes at Zong Kuiming and said with an unpleasant tone.

This old guy must be following him!

Zong Kuiming chuckled and said properly, “I received news that Xinhao Sect and Haoqi Alliance were planning to deal with you. Ta Tianchen left his mountain. He will join forces with the Evil Lord. These two guys are not easy to deal with. Follow me back to Tanhua Sect, or else you will be in danger of losing your life.”

Neither Ta Tianchen nor the Evil Lord was weaker than Lin Guanyu.

If the two of them worked together, few people in this world could stand up to them.

Zhou Xuanji was not shocked. He foresaw this a long time ago.

“I have my own ways. Tanhua Sect should learn to give up.”

He stared at Zong Kuiming and said seriously. He was going to create a sect; how could he join a dying sect?

Zong Kuiming shook his head with a smile and walked up to the black-robed lady. “What are you hiding on you, such that Jiang Wudi is searching for you so desperately?” He asked.

The black-robed lady looked up and said while gritting her teeth, “A stone. A stone that can freeze all waters. Wherever it floats, water around him will freeze within a few-hundred meter radius.”

Zong Kuiming and Zhou Xuanji were stunned.

There was such a stone worth Jiang Wudi putting in so many resources?

“The stone is called the Sea-Freezing Stone. Jiang Wudi wanted to go overseas with it to search for new territories,” said a female voice.

Zhou Xuanji heard her, and his expression changed drastically. He turned around to leave instinctively.

Xian Xianghua!

*  That Old Demonic Woman is here!*

Just as he turned around, Xian Xianghua appeared in front of him and looked at him with seemingly smiling eyes.

“Sect Lord!”

Zong Kuiming knelt down immediately and cried out.

The others were shocked and followed Zong Kuiming in greeting. They even kowtowed to her.

Although they joined the Tanhua Sect, it was their first time seeing Xian Xianghua.

Xian Xianghua brushed past Zhou Xuanji’s shoulder and gave him a charming look when she walked past him.

“Give me the Sea-Freezing Stone, and I will make you an executive of one of the Tanhua Sect’s branch.” She came up to the black-robed lady and said.

Having heard this, the black-robed lady looked up, pleasantly surprised.

A sapphire appeared as she flipped her hand. It was the size of a human head.

Seeing this, Zhou Xuanji left immediately.

Xian Xianghua took over the Sea-Freezing Stone and smiled satisfactorily,” Jiang Wudi is so ambitious. What’s your name? I like you. You know when to do what.”

The black-robed lady tried to hold back her excitement and said, “I’m Jiang Han. If the Sect Lord wants something, it’s my duty to hand it over!”

Bootlicker!

Zhou Xuanji, who leaped up to the mountain top, cursed in his heart. Next, he quickly flew toward Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, and the others.

Soon, Zhou Xuanji returned to the hill where everyone was.

He told them about Jiang Han, which made everyone speechless.

Jiang Xue looked shocked, with her eyes opened wide.

She tried to imagine many scenarios of reuniting with her grandmother, but she did not expect things to be like this.

Daoya Old Man face-palmed and said, “It’s a twisted fate. Xuanji, it seems like it’s very difficult for you to lose the Tanhua Sect.”

There were so many evil sects in the world, and she had to join the Tanhua Sect.

This is destiny.

“Since it’s like this, let’s leave and not worry about her anymore.”

Jiang Xue snorted. When she heard that Jiang Han did not allow her to marry Zhou Xuanji, she was infuriated.

The last strand of longing in her heart for Jiang Han vanished.

Her grandmother was living a good life and had even restored her youthful look. There was no need for her to be worried.

Zhou Xuanji nodded, and the group flew south straightaway.

After they departed, Xian Xianghua, Zong Kuiming, and the others did not chase them.

A while later, on the hill they were standing on, the ground burst open, and a man dressed in black jumped out.

He squinted his bloodshot eyes and mumbled, “I’ve finally found you, Zhou Xuanji. Your death is imminent!”
