Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Chapter 561: Showing Up to Beat the Autumn Wind

What made Zhou Zhidong the most depressed was that when the emperor gave him instructions for this task, he did not emphasize ensuring Ling Chuxi’s safety, but had only asked him to arrange for the food and board for these two people along the way and to not let unrelated people disturb their peace and quiet. This meant that he was not even comparable to a bodyguard. He was clearly a mere butler.

A dignified, well-known general in charge of guarding the borders had fallen to the position of becoming a butler. If it were anyone else, would they be able to accept it?

“General Zhou, let’s set off.” Ling Chuxi could see Zhou Zhidong’s dissatisfaction and could more or less guess at his thoughts so she did not take his manner to heart.

The two of them individually climbed into their carriages and with a long neigh from the well-built steed, they began moving in the direction of Ding Lin Country. Outside, over twenty young men dressed in casual clothes rode horses alongside the carriages. Each of them had determined expressions and straight postures, their entire beings giving off an iron-blooded intent.

“Wait a moment, wait for us!” They had just set off when Li Shaoqiu’s voice could be heard shouting out from behind them. A carriage was speedily approaching. Atop the carriage, a banner reading, “Iron Mouth And Divine Tooth Number One Fortune Teller Under The Heavens” was displayed, welcoming the wind.

“Why are you guys here?” asked Ling Chuxi after she drew the curtains to see who it was.

“I was just about to bring Brother Jiang to Ding Lin Country to travel about. Only then did I find out that you guys are also heading to Ding Lin Country. Coincidentally, we are going the same way!” said Li Shaoqiu excitedly as he wiped his sweat.

“Master Li, this time we are going to Ding Lin Country to deal with some important matters,” said Zhou Zhidong, his heart feeling even more irritated. He was already depressed enough having to be the butler to some little brat, but now, he had to add on a rich kid too, it was really overwhelming enough to annoy him to death. However, knowing Li Shaoqiu’s identity, he was not willing to offend the censor for this small matter and could only speak implicitly.

“General Zhou, we are just going along the same way, just act as if we’re not even here,” said Li Shaoqiu shamelessly. He and Jiang Wuhen had clearly shown up just to beat the autumn wind. (1)

Zhou Zhidong rolled his eyes, done with being nice. ‘You are the young master of the censor’s family. Since we are already going on the same way, how could I possibly act as if you weren’t here? Wouldn’t that clearly be disregarding your old man’s reputation?’

Seeing as Zhou Zhidong was not speaking and therefore, not objecting, Li Shaoqiu squeezed his carriage between their two carriages. Therefore, amongst the envoy bearing Nan Xia Country’s flag fluttering in the wind, a banner reading, “Iron Mouth And Divine Tooth Number One Fortune Teller Under The Heavens” was extra outstanding.

Although Ling Yichen and the rest of her usual group were not with her this time, Ling Chuxi did not find it boring along the way. She trained hard the Great Fists Skill while trying to incorporate the Turning Cloud Gesture into it to display a greater might when executing it.

Taking advantage of the time they had along the way, Mo Kongyuan had already handed over his lifetime’s top technique, the 27 Hand Great Fists Skill to Ling Chuxi. Although the Great Fists Skill was not like Turning Cloud Gesture and Spiral Battle Qi where the strong and the weak met, its might was great and it was coincidentally able to display Ling Chuxi’s Thundercloud Battle Qi to its extreme potential. If she could integrate the Turning Cloud Gesture within the technique, its power was even harder to imagine.

Ideally, it was beautiful, but the reality of the situation was cruel. Ling Chuxi only noticed the limitation when she tried it out for herself. No matter the Turning Cloud Gesture of the Xiao family or the Great Fists Skill of Mo Kongyuan, although they were both exquisite topnotch techniques that were the result of the repeated scrutiny of a thousand hammers and hundreds of practices of the expert seniors before her, with her current cultivation level, she was truly unable to integrate them both together thoroughly.

And what made Ling Chuxi feel even more depressed was that she still had not managed to find a good opportunity to breakthrough. Her cultivation was still stuck at Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage and it hadn’t progressed in the least.

“Why is it like this?” Ling Chuxi truly could not understand. She thought about it and explained to Mo Kongyuan in detail about her current predicament.

“Could it be related to the seal in your Qi Ocean?” Mo Kongyuan said after pondering the matter. Although being promoted to the realm of True Essence required an opportunity, it was odd since once Ling Chuxi reached the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage, no matter how much she cultivated her Battle Qi, there was not even the slightest change in her level. This made one unable to comprehend what was going on with her cultivation.

(1) Beating the autumn wind means taking advantage of a richer party for one’s own gains.
