Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 326: Accepting Han Qiu
"I lost!"

When the 108 leaves of Zhao Shuang turned into a green sword in his hand, Han Qiu immediately admitted defeat.

"Your Highness Hachioji has a talent for swordsmanship that I have never seen before. I wonder if he can reach the realm of enlightenment."

Han Qiu stared at Zhao Shuang with her beautiful eyes shining brightly. Obviously, she suspected that Zhao Shuang had reached this level of swordsmanship.

"Of course we have arrived." Zhao Shuang said with a slight smile.

"If Miss Han Qiu is interested, I can talk to you privately about the way of the sword. As for the Queen, she is ill and cannot see guests."

"What? The Queen Mother is ill."

Upon hearing the news, the fourth prince Zhang Tiangui could no longer stand and rushed directly into the queen's bedroom.

"Miss Han Qiu, let's take a look around the palace! As for the rest of your sect, just wait here for Fourth Brother!"

Zhao Shuang's tone was calm, but it contained an unquestionable tone of defiance.

For a moment, several disciples of Yuntai Martial Arts Academy instinctively nodded and agreed, which made Han Qiu look at Zhao Shuang with higher regard.

He also did as he was told and followed Zhao Shuang out of the Queen's palace.

She walked side by side with Zhao Shuang in the palace, like a fairy couple, attracting attention.

Everyone in the palace belongs to Zhao Shuang, so there is no need to worry about anything.

Along the way, whether it was "White Emperor Golden Emperor Slash" or other knowledge and information about swordsmanship, it opened Han Qiu's eyes and made him feel enlightened.

Dasheng had a good impression of Zhao Shuang and admired him more and more.

At the same time, she couldn't help but envy the Yunwu Commandery. Not only did it have her senior brother Zhang Tiangui, but it also had an eighth prince like Zhao Shuang. Most importantly, it also had a ninth prince who was equally talented.

It can be said that if any one of them grows up, Yunwu County will have the hope of unifying the thirty-six counties of Tianmo Ridge and becoming a superior county.

As for who will become the Prince of Yunwu in the end, it depends on their respective strengths.

After a while, Zhao Shuang and Han Qiu, chatting and laughing, sat down in a pavilion in the palace.

"Miss Han Qiu's divine mark should be of dark attribute, right?"

After talking for a few more words, Zhao Shuang finally got to the point.

"But you didn't want anyone to know. So you practiced your sect's most advanced technique, the lower-grade ghost-level technique, the 'Supreme Saint Qiankun Gong'."

"However, this 'Supreme Heavenly Universe Art' can only conceal the dark aura within your zhenqi. It also counteracts your dark attribute divine martial mark. Your current cultivation level is lower, so it's not a big problem. But with your talent, qualifications, and status, it's only a matter of time before you reach the Heavenly Realm. By then, the two opposing forces will be enough to make you pay a heavy price. At best, your meridians will be severed, and at worst, you will die."

"Miss Han Qiu, am I right?"

Zhao Shuang chuckled and said something that almost struck Han Qiu like lightning.

"You...how do you know so much? Was it you who just asked me those questions?"

Han Qiu finally reacted at this moment, biting her red lips with her pearly teeth and muttering.

"I guess so. If I'm not sure whether Miss Han Qiu has the Divine Martial Mark of the Dark Attribute, I can't help you."

Zhao Shuang said with his smile still on his face.

"Help me, how can you help me? Do you have a Holy Light Pill?"

Hearing this, Han Qiu guessed.

"The Holy Light Pill can indeed balance the two completely different powers within your body, but it can only sustain you to the late Heavenly Realm. If you attempt to reach a higher realm, you will surely perish. Therefore, I do not possess this pill. I choose to help you simply because of the immense potential of this dark-attributed Divine Martial Mark. The entire Kunlun Realm will soon face a catastrophe, and you are the one I have chosen?"

Zhao Shuang has started the "charlatan" deception mode!
"Catastrophe? What catastrophe?"

Although Han Qiu didn't believe a word of what Zhao Shuang said, he still pressed the issue.

"It's simple. Just look at this and you'll understand. Just use your mental power to invade it."

Zhao Shuang took out a black jade slip from his space ring and handed it to Han Qiu.

"Space treasure, you actually possess a space treasure?"

Seeing this, Han Qiu's expression was complicated, and he was a little envious.

"What, you want it?"

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang took out another space ring and handed it to Han Qiu.

"ring?"

"Forget about the ring. I can't accept it."

Han Qiu's cheeks flushed and she shook her head in refusal.

"It's up to you! Take a look at what's inside first! lest you accuse me of lying, there's a technique in there that's suitable for you."

Zhao Shuang continued.

After hearing what Zhao Shuang said, Han Qiu hesitated for a moment before taking the jade slip and releasing his mental power to examine it.

In addition to the skills suitable for Han Qiu, the jade slips also contain information about the catastrophe in the Kunlun Realm, and many images. Although these were forged by Zhao Shuang using his divine consciousness, they are real.

After seeing the information and images in the black jade slip, Han Qiu's pretty face turned pale and she remained silent for a long time.

He was obviously shocked by the content.

"Are you the awakened Ancient Emperor?"

It took Han Qiu half an hour to come back to his senses from his shock. His expression, face, and eyes were all extremely complicated as he stared at Zhao Shuang, and he asked in a low voice for a long time.

"Otherwise, do you think anyone can find a technique that suits your physique? You must know that this is a top-tier, king-level technique, the most suitable for your dark attribute Divine Martial Mark. In the entire Kunlun Realm, there is no other technique more suitable for you besides this one. Moreover, the Yin-Yang Spiritualization Technique within it can harmonize the light and dark forces within your body, allowing you to cultivate faster. You don't need to worry about backlash and death. Then you can surpass the Martial Myth and enter the Fish Dragon Realm. At that time, you will be able to practice this technique and completely control the dark attribute Divine Martial Mark within your body."

Zhao Shuang explained slowly.

The technique in the jade slip is naturally not the Great Darkness Technique, one of the Three Thousand Great Ways, but a technique created by Zhao Shuang by combining the "Great Darkness Technique", "Great Yin and Yang Technique" and "Great Light Technique".

It is countless times better than the one from the Liangyi Sect in Kunlun Realm, and is also the most suitable one for Han Qiu.

There is also Zhao Shuang’s identity information: the awakened ancient emperor.

"What do you want me to do for you?"

Regardless of whether Zhao Shuang was an awakened ancient emperor or not, Han Qiu knew that Zhao Shuang could not be so kind and there must be something she needed to do.

"Simple, be my woman. Otherwise, after seeing so much, do you think I can let you leave alive?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and said something that made Han Qiu shudder and turn pale.

"Do you know that if I die in Yunwu Commandery, the entire Yunwu Commandery will not have a good ending?"

Han Qiu's face was pale, and his eyes were red with anger and panic.

"I know, of course I know, but I won't let this happen. That's why I will destroy the entire Yuntai Martial Academy. Otherwise, who do you think destroyed the Earth Fire City and the Red Spider Battleship?"

Zhao Shuang's attitude changed. Since bribery failed, he could only use intimidation.

When Han Qiu heard what Zhao Shuang said, her cheeks flushed with hesitation, struggle and shame.

"I can promise you, but not now. I need to break through the Fish Dragon Realm first, practice this technique, and resolve the hidden dangers of my physical condition before I can be your woman." After more than ten minutes, Han Qiu finally made a decision, or it might be a delay.

But Zhao Shuang didn't care. By that time, his strength would have reached an unknown level, so there was no need to worry about this.

"No problem. There won't be any problem with this." Zhao Shuang smiled slightly, nodded and agreed directly, which made Han Qiu breathe a sigh of relief.

But Zhao Shuang's next words made his expression change again.

"Okay, you can tell anyone about what happened today, but I will also kill anyone who knows, including your family and friends."

"Okay, that's no problem. I won't tell anyone."

After hearing Zhao Shuang's warning, Han Qiu blushed and nodded slightly.

"Oh, there's one more thing I need to tell you. The disciple coming with you, Huang Li, is a killer from the Underworld Sect. Be careful."

Zhao Shuang said again.

"Huang Li is the assassin from the Underworld?"

"How can this be?"

Han Qiu's face changed drastically and he blurted out.

"Of course he isn't, but the Underworld Sect has a martial art called 'Silkworm and Butterfly Technique' that can move muscles and shrink bones, and change one's appearance."

"However, only the top assassins of the Underworld Sect are qualified to practice the Silkworm and Butterfly Art. They can advance as a butterfly, retreat as a silkworm. Silkworms and butterflies are of the same species, yet have different forms. Once they master the Silkworm and Butterfly Art, their bones, muscles, and meridians can all move, allowing them to instantly transform into another person. And this Huang Li is actually Zi Yin Yang, the young master of the Underworld Sect. He is the only one of the younger generation of the Underworld Sect who has practiced the Silkworm and Butterfly Art."

Zhao Shuang explained.

"How did you know?"

Han Qiu was surprised.

It was not surprising that Zhao Shuang could see the martial arts that "Huang Li" was practicing, but how did he know his identity?

"Because he is my eldest brother-in-law and his sister is my woman."

Zhao Shuang shrugged and explained with a chuckle.

"His purpose in coming here with you was to assassinate my ninth brother, thereby sparking a conflict between the Yuntai Martial Arts Academy and the Martial Market Academy, and earning a huge reward. As for why he didn't kill me, it was because he wasn't sure and worried I'd kill him in return. Killing me or my ninth brother wouldn't make much of a difference, and my ninth brother's chances of success would be much higher."

As soon as the words fell, before Han Qiu could ask any more questions, a disciple from Yuntai Wufu ran over. When he saw Han Qiu and Zhao Shuang, he quickly spoke.

"Senior Sister Han Qiu, something bad has happened. Huang Li has agreed to a duel with the Ninth Prince of Yunwu Commandery at the Wu City Arena, and Senior Brother and the others have gone along."

After hearing this, Han Qiu completely believed what Zhao Shuang said.

"Let's go! Let's go take a look. They're really quick to act!"

Zhao Shuang said with an unchanged smile.

"it is good."

Seeing this, Han Qiu naturally didn't say anything more and nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Zhao Shuang and Han Qiu, led by the disciple from Yuntai Martial Arts Academy, left the palace and headed towards the martial arts arena.

A life and death contract needs to be signed there!

When the three of them arrived, the disciples of Yuntai Sect and the students of Wushi Academy had already arrived at the Wushi Arena and divided into camps, showing a strong sense of opposition.

The disciples of Yuntai Zongfu, headed by Zhang Tiangui, gathered more than forty people, half of whom were inner disciples at the Earth Realm.

The disciples of Wushi Academy, headed by Si Xingkong and Huang Yanchen, were slightly more numerous than those of Yuntai Sect, and most of those present were students from the inner palace.

After all, although Huang Yanchen has just entered the inner palace not long ago, he is already in the late Huangji realm and is also a genius of the Seven Absolutes. Even if he faces a warrior of the Heavenly Realm, he has the strength to fight.

Although he is only one of the three supreme geniuses on the surface, he is also the strongest person besides Si Xingkong.

"What on earth is going on with Huang Li? He actually angered the Ninth Prince."

Huang Yanchen had some understanding of Zhang Ruoji. He knew that unless he was extremely angry, he would never challenge others to a fight, especially a life-and-death bet.

"I heard that Huang Li from Yuntai Wufu insulted Concubine Lin, Junior Brother Zhang's mother. That's why he agreed to this bet."

Chang Qiqi began to explain.

Si Xingkong, with a wine gourd hanging from his hand and disheveled hair, laughed and said, "I guess this black market is deliberately setting up a scheme behind the scenes to divide the Wushi Academy and the Yuntai Sect, so that we can fight among ourselves and then they can profit from it."

"Tell my junior brothers and sisters to be prepared. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle today."

Si Xingkong ordered.

"Yes, Big Brother."

"But do we need to notify Yuntai Wufu?"

"No need, I believe Zhang Tiangui is well prepared."

Si Xingkong shook his head and said.

"it is good."

Hearing this, Chang Qiqi didn't say anything more.

"Junior Brother Eighth Prince is here, and he's with Han Qiu. What's going on?"

Suddenly, Chang Qiqi's eyes widened, revealing an incredible expression, and she said in shock.

After all, Han Qiu was the senior sister of Yuntai Wufu, the most beautiful woman, and one of the Ten Beauties of Tianmo Ridge. All these identities combined, and now walking side by side with Zhao Shuang, were truly eye-catching. She even surpassed Zhang Ruoji and "Huang Li" on the stage.

"Big Brother, did you see Senior Sister Han Qiu follow that Eighth Prince to the Wu City Academy? What's going on?"

A disciple from Yuntai Martial Arts School also saw Han Qiu walking side by side with Zhao Shuang towards the Wushi Academy. His face changed slightly and he quickly told Zhang Tiangui.

Everyone in the Yuntai Martial Arts Academy knew that Zhang Tiangui was pursuing Han Qiu, and most of the disciples also hoped that the two of them would be together to make the Yuntai Martial Arts Academy even stronger. But now it seemed that Han Qiu was obviously going to be abducted by Zhao Shuang.

After all, with Han Qiu's personality, how could she possibly follow Zhao Shuang, with whom she had no relationship or feelings, to the Wushi Academy?

Zhang Tiangui had naturally seen it a long time ago, so his face turned gloomy, but he still pretended to be calm.

"It's okay. There might be a fierce battle next anyway. Junior Sister Han Qiu happens to be over there, so it's convenient for her to pass on the message."

"So the eldest brother has some arrangements to make."

After hearing Zhang Tiangui's words, another disciple suddenly realized.

……

Compared to the depressed and confused Yuntai Martial Arts Academy, the Wushi Academy felt much better when they saw Han Qiu coming side by side with Zhao Shuang.

This is no less than a huge victory for them.

It would even surpass the duel between Huang Li and Zhang Ruoji below if Zhao Shuang could marry Han Qiu as well.
