Chapter 692: Chapter 308: Blood Sacrifice of the Witch God
“A mont of a thousand years.”
Zhou Xuan stared at the secret techniques on the “Xianhuo True Record,” lost in thought.
“What’s this kid plotting again?”
Yun Ziliang knew that Zhou Xuan intended to use this secret technique to deal with the three-headed stone Buddha imprisoned in the Old Hall.
“Old Hua said that in the past days, the witches encountered a deadlock while interrogating the three-headed stone Buddha… Tomorrow I’ll try this secret technique, see if it works.”
Zhou Xuan closed the “True Record” and went upstairs to rest.
…
In the early morning, Xu Li and Yu Zhengyuan had already packed their luggage—the efficiency of the painter was extraordinarily high.
After he and Zhou Xuan agreed on a “financial power for wish power” strategic cooperation, he urged Taiping Gentlen to fully support the Zhou Family’s Troupe.
Overnight, dozens of Taiping Gentlen gathered at the troupe to discuss cooperation matters,
Without Yu Zhengyuan, the pillar of the troupe was now the fourth brother, Yu Jia.
Yu Jia was quite good at maintaining goodwill, usually taking care of business clients for the troupe,
But for major cooperation decisions, he lacked experience and called Penglai Inn late at night.
Yu Zhengyuan was concerned about the troupe, and since Zhou Xuan was resting, he didn’t want to disturb him either, leaving only a farewell letter before he and Xu Li took the train back to Ping Shui Prefecture.
Upon waking, Zhou Xuan found out about the departure of his senior brother and sister-in-law, but he wasn’t too upset.
He now possessed the Shifting Form technique and could return to the Zhou Family’s Troupe anyti he wished.
However, Zhao Wuya was quite heartbroken, as if he’d lost his soul.
Was that the senior brother?
That was a wealth of emotional value,
Without the senior brother, who would call him “Daoist” one mont and “Little Heavenly Master Zhao” the next?
Who could et him and start praising him, making even soone as thick-skinned as him blush?
“Such a wonderful person as the senior brother, why couldn’t he stay in Mingjiang Prefecture for longer?”
Zhao Wuya leaned against the doorpost of the Zhou Family’s Jingyi Shop, his eyes gazing into space.
“You just need a complint group.”
Zhou Xuan sat on a stool, peeled an orange, and handed a slice to Zhao Wuya, saying, “Actually, you may not need your senior brother to praise you. I also have a king of applause. If you want, I can lend it to you.”
“What?”
“The main brain.”
Zhou Xuan said, “That main brain is also quite good at praising people, with emotional value given to the brim.”
“Is that so?”
Zhao Wuya’s eyes lit up.
“Little Brain, give Ya Zi a good praise.”
“To what extent?”
The main brain in the Secret Realm asked Zhou Xuan.
“Praise him until he’s dizzy with happiness, praise until he’s infatuated with you.”
Zhou Xuan said.
“As you command, Mr. Zhou.”
With Zhou Xuan’s order, the main brain flew out from the Secret Realm, reached Zhao Wuya’s side, and began an intense flattery session.
“This Daoist’s bearing and majesty, extraordinary and dust-escaping…”
The main brain began a stream of relentless flattery towards Zhao Wuya.
This good chatter session, at the start Zhao Wuya was quite comfortable, but after a while of talking,
Zhao Wuya lost interest and returned to his lancholic state.
The main brain exerted all its “lifelong skills,” racking its mind for words, but still couldn’t stir Zhao Wuya’s joyful emotions.
“Mr. Zhou, Little Brain’s work is inadequate.”
“Co back inside first.”
After letting the main brain return to the Secret Realm, Zhou Xuan asked Zhao Wuya, “What’s wrong, Little Brain didn’t serve you well?”
“Way off from the senior brother.”
“What’s missing?”
“The main brain praises… praises without soul… I find it hard to believe the perfect self coming from his mouth is really . But with the senior brother, talking with him, I truly felt for a brief mont that… I was outstanding and excellent.”
Zhou Xuan didn’t mock Zhao Wuya,
The senior brother had a charm that really captivated people.
Praising is just lip service, but in so people’s mouths, a few light words can beco an art.
“Then stew in your gloom. I have to head out.”
Zhou Xuan had no other plan; he couldn’t keep the senior brother from returning to the troupe and then report to the sister: “The senior brother will live in Mingjiang Prefecture in the future. We need a king of applause here.”
If that were the case, it would be out of line.
Efficient operation of the troupe was more important.
After instructing Zhao Wuya, Zhou Xuan headed out. Zhao Wuya called out to him, “Brother Xuan, where are you going?”
“Oh, I’m going to Ping Shui Prefecture first, to check on my sister and master, you know, visiting family?”
“And after visiting?”
“Going to the Witch God Temple.”
Zhou Xuan said, “In the Old Hall, the three-headed stone Buddha is imprisoned. The past days, the witches didn’t get anything useful from him. I need to practice so secret techniques.”
“Not heading to the streets for dragon seeking fortune-telling?”
Zhao Wuya continued to ask.
“Not today, taking a day off, there’s big work tomorrow.”
Zhou Xuan said.
Tomorrow is the day when those in Mingjiang Yin Hall team up for a blood sacrifice in Gangfeng Cave, and it’s also the day Zhou Xuan made an appointnt with Zhimajiang and Jiji Grass to investigate the relationship between the Nine-Headed Snake God and Xu Jingshan.
The hiding place of Xu Jingshan’s soul is tied to that Yama’s Trigram—unearthing a Yama’s Trigram and gathering the Dragon Seeking Incense is far from ordinary street fortune-telling.
“If you’re not going on the street today, I won’t either. I’ll find a place to enjoy myself too.”
“I know what you’re up to; you’re definitely off to Hui Feng dical College to flirt with female students again.”
Zhou Xuan’s words made Zhao Wuya’s face turn beet red: “Bah, groundless accusations… I’m not going to flirt; I’m trying to learn so knowledge, too eager for progress… ”
“…” Zhou Xuan.
…
After parting with Zhao Wuya, Zhou Xuan walked along East Market Street, and after a few steps, his Divine Soul took a day trip to Ping Shui Prefecture.
