889 Three-Heaven Divine Weapon, I Want to Be a Great Hero (2)
Zheng Chengan stared at Emperor Yuan Feng. His expression doesnât seem fake. Does he really not know that Zhou Shu is still alive?
Zheng Chengan was a little puzzled. After a while, he shook his head and said, âThatâs right. Itâs not wise to do something you know you canât. After all, you still have to consider all of Great Xia. But Iâm a little curious. I heard that you were seriously injured. I wonder who cured your injuries. To be honest, I also have some old injuries, and I want to get someone to take a look.â
âItâs Mr. Ji Lutian. Lord Zheng, donât you know him too?â Emperor Yuan Feng said with a smile.
âOh? Itâs Ji Lutian? Ji Lutian said that he barged into the Demon Realm with a good friend. Xia Emperor, do you know who his good friend is?â Zheng Chengan asked.
âLord Zheng, youâre asking the wrong person. Iâm not familiar with Mr. Ji. If you want to know, you should ask him directly. I think he will tell you,â Emperor Yuan Feng replied calmly.
How could he not understand what Zheng Chengan meant? Zheng Chengan wanted to find out if that friend was Zhou Shu. In terms of age, Emperor Yuan Feng might not be as old as Zheng Chengan, but he had been an emperor for decades. In terms of schemes, several Zheng Chengans couldnât compare to him.
Zheng Chengan probed a few more times, but he didnât find anything. He became impatient and said, âXia Emperor, I know that Zhou Shu isnât dead. I even met him a few days ago. I want to see him!â
Zheng Chenganâs directness caught Emperor Yuan Feng off guard. He looked around nervously. âLord Zheng, what are you talking about? I donât understand.â
âI said, I want to see Zhou Shu!â Zheng Chengan said in a low voice. âThis is the Sima Grotto-Heaven. You donât have to worry about anyone eavesdropping on us! I have something important to discuss with him, but I donât know how to contact him.â
Emperor Yuan Feng looked at Zheng Chengan. After a while, he confirmed that Zheng Chengan wasnât tricking him. âI donât know either.â
âYou donât know, but your daughter must know!â Zheng Chengan said. âZhou Shu and I are old acquaintances. I wonât harm him!â
Emperor Yuan Feng pondered for a moment and said, âI believe you, but I really donât know how to contact Zhou Shu. I can only tell you that Iâll try. I canât guarantee that there will be any results.â
âJust give it a try. Heâll definitely appear!â Zheng Chengan said happily.
â¦
On the Ten Nations Continent, in Great Xiaâ¦
If someone could observe the territory of Great Xia in the air, they would definitely discover that the original territory of Great Xia was much smaller than before.
In the entire territory, Great Xiaâs capital could no longer be found, as if Great Xiaâs capital had never existed.
Even though Shi Songtao and the other forgers of the Huaxia Pavilion saw this scene for the second time, they still couldnât control the shock in their hearts.
Grotto-heaven divine weapons were too miraculous!
âYour Highness, can the citizens of Great Xia live in the inner worlds of the Celestial Thearch Sword in the future?â Shi Songtao couldnât help asking.
âNo.â Zhou Shu shook his head. âThe worlds inside grotto-heaven divine weapons look the same as the grotto-heavens of martial artists, but theyâre actually different. One is dead, and the other is alive. The worlds inside grotto-heaven divine weapons donât have a complete ecology. Itâs not a problem for people to enter one for a short time, but itâs very problematic to live in it for a long time.â
Shi Songtao didnât quite understand. After all, his realm was not high enough, so he still couldnât understand the profundities.
âMm?â Zhou Shu was about to complete the next world of the Celestial Thearch Sword when he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked in a direction.
A figure was rapidly approaching.
âWuyou?â A smile appeared on Zhou Shuâs face. With a flash, he arrived in front of Yin Wuyou.
âWhy are you here?â Zhou Shu pulled Yin Wuyou into his arms and spun her around.
Yin Wuyou blushed. She glanced at Shi Songtao and the others in the distance and buried her face in Zhou Shuâs arms in embarrassment.
âThe leader of the Sima Grotto-Heaven, Zheng Chengan, passed a message through my father. He wants to see you. He said that he has something important to discuss with you,â Yin Wuyou said in a soft voice. âI came to find you because I was afraid of delaying your business.â
âDoes your father know that you came to find me?â Zhou Shu asked.
âHe doesnât know.â Yin Wuyou shook her head and whispered, âI wanted to see you too.â
Zhou Shu smiled and patted Yin Wuyouâs back. He looked in a direction. âZheng Chengan, come out. Youâre the leader of a grotto-heaven. Arenât you afraid of embarrassing yourself by following a lady?â
Yin Wuyou was shocked, and her expression changed drastically. âDid I get you in trouble?â
âItâs fine.â Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head. âZheng Chengan isnât an enemy.â
In the distance, there was a ripple in the air, and Zheng Chengan appeared in front of them.
A hint of shame and anger flashed across Yin Wuyouâs eyes. She had actually been followed by Zheng Chengan and even exposed Zhou Shuâs whereabouts. How embarrassing!
âI had no choice. Otherwise, how could I have found you, King Zhou?â Zheng Chengan said. âYouâre elusive, and itâs not easy to find you.â
Zhou Shu frowned. âWhy are you looking for me? Iâve already given you enough face for what happened last time. Weâre even. Do you still want to find trouble with me?â
Yin Wuyou stood behind Zhou Shu, her heart full of pride. This was her man. He was still so unyielding when talking to the leader of a grotto-heaven.
âI, Zheng Chengan, am not that petty.â Zheng Chengan shook his head. âWhat happened before is in the past. Iâm looking for you for another matter.â
He glanced at Yin Wuyou. His meaning was obvious. Yin Wuyou was an unrelated person.
âSheâs my wife. She knows what I know. Itâs up to you to say it or not. Otherwise, please leave,â Zhou Shu said calmly.
Yin Wuyou felt a surge of sweetness in her heart, and she became even angrier that she had been followed by Zheng Chengan. Not only had she not helped Zhou Shu, but she had even caused him trouble.
My cultivation is too weak. After this, I must work hard to cultivate and quickly increase my cultivation. This canât happen again!
Zheng Chengan frowned and was silent for a moment, but he still spoke. âI want to ask you to help me do what you did for Old Ji.â
Zhou Shu was stunned. âOld Ji? Ji Lutian? What did I do for him?â
âKing Zhou, Iâm not a fool. There are some things that others donât know, but they canât hide from me.â Zheng Chengan shook his head. âThe Sima Grotto-Heaven was the first to announce that Old Ji won thirty years of peace for the human race. I could have kept quiet.â
âSo what?â Zhou Shu said. âThatâs between you and Ji Lutian. What does it have to do with me?â
âI want to be like Old Ji and become a hero of the human race!â Zheng Chengan said solemnly. âAfter thinking about it, only you can help me with this.â
âYou want to be a hero too? Youâre already the leader of the Sima Grotto-Heaven. Why do you still want to be a hero?â Zhou Shu was puzzled.
âIâve already severed my grotto-heaven and cultivated Old Jiâs mystic technique,â Zheng Chengan said. âAfter leaving the Sima Grotto-Heaven, how many people know me? If I want to become stronger, I have to be like Old Ji and be famous throughout the world!
âSince you could help Old Ji do it, you can naturally help me do it too. Thatâs why I want to ask you to help.â Zheng Chengan stared straight at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu looked at Zheng Chengan with a strange expression. âThereâs no problem with helping you. Do you know what price Ji Lutian paid?â
âI can afford whatever Old Ji paid. To be honest, I, Zheng Chengan, am the leader of the Sima Grotto-Heaven! I still have some good things!â
