Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal Chapter 79 - 9: Taking Action

Shi Jingfeng’s lips were moving at this mont, saying sothing.

"Brother Shi!" Zhou Xun quickly leaned in.

"Zhou... Brother... Wanying... take Wanying... as... my disciple!"

The voice was intermittent, but Zhou Xun understood Shi Jingfeng’s intent.

He knew his injuries were severe, and survival was impossible; the only thing he couldn’t let go of was his wife and daughter.

If he were to pass away, Shi Wanying and her mother would be left with no support.

"Shi... I... will repay... in the next life!" The voice grew weaker, eyes pleading.

Zhou Xun heard this and nodded solemnly!

"Brother Shi, don’t worry, I will take Wanying as my disciple!"

Shi Jingfeng heard these words, showing a relieved expression, then turned his head towards the door, staring straight ahead.

It seed he wanted to see sothing.

He stared intently, his vision growing increasingly blurred.

Finally, in the faint distance, he saw two shadows, one large and one small, appear in his dim sight.

Shi Jingfeng smiled and passed away peacefully.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun’s heart was extrely unsettled; it was the first ti in all his lifetis that such a close friend had died before him.

And he could only watch, helpless.

"Husband!"

"Father!"

At this mont, two voices filled with sorrow rang out.

It was Shi Jingfeng’s wife, Gao Yue, and his only daughter, Shi Wanying, who had heard the news and arrived.

Looking at her husband’s broken body, Gao Yue’s body trembled slightly.

How could she accept that her partner, who was just fine a few days ago, was now separated by life and death, without even a complete body?

After a long while, Gao Yue picked up her husband’s broken body and walked outside, step by step.

Zhou Xun and Hall Master Song, along with others, followed behind.

Gao Yue reached an uninhabited mountainside outside the market and dug a grave large enough for a person with her own hands, then placed Shi Jingfeng’s body inside.

She then used her hands to fill the soil back in.

Zhou Xun and the others wanted to help, but Gao Yue refused.

"It was on this mountain that I first t my husband!"

"At that ti, he was still a shy young man..." Gao Yue spoke to herself with a happy smile on her face.

"Madam Shi, rest assured, we at the Law Enforcent Hall will definitely avenge this!" Hall Master Song’s fingers clenched tightly, veins showing.

Gao Yue seed not to hear.

Finally, a tombstone carved from a bluestone was set down.

In his mind, scenes of past interactions with Shi Jingfeng kept appearing.

At their first eting, the cheerful, generous middle-aged man,

’I am Shi Jingfeng, this is my wife and daughter!’

When Zhou Xun opened his store,

"Congratulations, Brother Zhou, if anything arises feel free to co to the Law Enforcent Team!"

And during a drinking session, Shi Jingfeng, drunk, poured out his true feelings!

’In this life, with a beloved wife and a loving daughter, my only wish is to grow old with them!’

Zhou Xun lit an incense stick before quietly leaving.

...

In a deserted valley 4000 miles outside Qingyue Square,

three figures were gathered in a temporary Cave Mansion, discussing sothing.

"Second Master, we suffered big losses this ti!" A square-faced big man sighed.

"Who would have thought the Law Enforcent Team in Qingyue Square would be so formidable, as if they don’t value their own lives!" Another monkey-faced young man replied.

The one called Second Master, a cold-faced middle-aged man, had a sullen expression, with traces of blood on his clothes.

That day, over 2000 miles west of Qingyue Square, they had set their sights on a plump target.

Just as they made their move, they unexpectedly ran into the Qingyue Square Law Enforcent Team.

The two parties imdiately clashed.

The cold-faced middle-aged man’s magical artifact was sharp, quickly injuring the leading middle-aged captain heavily.

If it had ended there, they would have no major losses.

But within half a mont, another team arrived.

The combined forces of the two Qingyue Square teams doubled their own.

Fortunately, the cold-faced middle-aged man was powerful, his every move claiming a life.

Upon killing a white-faced youth, the enemy’s leading middle-aged man seed to go mad, attacking him recklessly.

Every attack disregarded his own life.

In exchange for serious injury to himself, he managed to kill that person.

However, due to the delay, only two of his subordinates survived.

He had no choice but to flee with the remaining people, returning to their temporary campsite.

"Second Master, what should we do next, return to Celestial Terrace Ridge?" The monkey-faced youth asked.

"Let’s go back. I am severely wounded; my strength is less than half of what it usually is. I’ll recover before making any plans," the middle-aged man replied calmly.

Though his heart was filled with rage.

Ever since the Wung Three Fierce resurfaced, they had encountered nothing but bad luck.

First, the youngest of the three chased an Alchemy Master but vanished without a trace.

Additionally, this ti, his actions led him to face two Law Enforcent Teams, both full of lunatics with nothing to lose.

"This place is not far from Qingyue Square. What if their people find us?" The big man asked.

"Don’t worry. The Spiritual Qi here is sparse, rarely visited, plus concealed by an array. They won’t find us!" The cold-faced middle-aged man explained briefly.

"Second Master picked the place; why worry!" The monkey-faced youth scolded.

"How dare you curse !" The big man roared, ready to fight.

"Enough! Calm down. Focus on recovering. We leave for Celestial Terrace Ridge early tomorrow!" The middle-aged man raised his voice, imdiately quelling the dispute between his subordinates.

...

In another place, 2000 miles away,

a green-colored Escape Light was flying rapidly.

On this Escape Light stood a middle-aged man dressed as a Martial Artist, wearing a cloak.

This person was Zhou Xun.

Under his cloak, he was already wearing the Profound Yellow Armor.

His purpose for this journey was very clear: the Tribulation Cultivator who killed Shi Jingfeng.

According to the Law Enforcent Team’s survivors, the Tribulation Cultivator was severely injured and fled hurriedly.

The Fifth Law Enforcent Team Captain fought to the death, sacrificing himself to gravely injure the Tribulation Cultivator who killed Shi Jingfeng.

Zhou Xun was headed straight for this group of Tribulation Cultivators.

Before leaving, Zhou Xun perford a divination for himself, which showed great fortune.

Although his Divination Technique was not deep, unable to predict others’ fates, he could manage a glimpse of matters concerning himself.

From the surviving youth, Zhou Xun heard the description of the magical artifact that killed Shi Jingfeng and imdiately determined it was another part of his Round Wheel Spiritual Artifact.

Even when separated, this artifact had such power; one could only imagine its strength when fully assembled.

Zhou Xun used the Tracking Technique from the divination arts, utilizing the connection between the two artifacts.

He quickly calculated the Tribulation Cultivator’s location.

"Brother Shi, soon I will avenge you!" Zhou Xun thought to himself.

The Fifth Law Enforcent Team Captain had an Eighth-Layer Qi Refining Cultivation.

His only son was also in his team.

This madness was certainly because his son had been killed.

His dead-set intention to die made the Tribulation Cultivator suffer greatly.

Strike while the iron is hot!

A few hours later, within a hundred miles of the valley,

Zhou Xun descended from the Escape Light, stopping to ditate and regulate his breath while setting up the Nine-Nine Celestial Essence Array as a backup.

Once he finished his ditation, Zhou Xun approached the outside of the valley, donned his helt, pulled down his visor, held the Armor-Piercing Cone in his left hand, and the Round Wheel Spiritual Artifact in his right hand, lying in wait at the mountaintop.

After a long wait, the scenery of the valley changed, as if a certain magic array had been removed.

At the sa ti, three figures flew out.
