Chapter 1323: Young Man and Young Lady

Suddenly, Su Zimo heard a voice.

“Sister, is that person still unconscious?”

A slightly tender voice of a young man sounded, seemingly grumbling.

“Not yet.”

Another voice sounded. It was rather pleasant and sounded like a young girl.

Su Zimo opened his eyes and looked over.

He was in a medium-sized room. Lying on a sandalwood bed, he was covered with a thick blanket. The light-colored curtains were closed and exuded a faint fragrance.

On the wooden table beside the bed was a simple basin of orchids and a bronze mirror.

The room was clean and tidy. Although the decorations were simple and plain, there was a hint of elegance in it—it looked like a young girl’s room.

Although the door was tightly shut, Su Zimo could see two figures walking over with his eyesight.

The figure on the left was slightly shorter, but his shoulders were wide and he strode with vigor.

The figure on the right was slightly taller and her long hair fluttered. She had a graceful figure that was charming—she must be the elder sister in the conversation earlier on.

“Sister, that person’s background is unknown. You’ve done your best to take care of him for so long. In my opinion, you should just throw him out and let him fend for himself.”

The young man on the left said.

“What’s the difference between throwing him out now and killing him?”

The girl shook her head. “We have to wait for him to wake up before making further plans.”

“But, sister, your dantian is destroyed and yet, you’re still painstakingly taking care of that person daily. I’m worried that your body…” The young man hesitated.

“It’s nothing much,”

The girl smiled. “During this period of time, I began cultivating the Martial Dao and gained some insights. My condition has already improved.”

“Sister, you’re still cultivating the Martial Dao?”

The young man seemed to frown. “I heard from outside that the fiend, Desolate Martial, joined forces with a primordial taboo and killed many people in the Middle Continent! What’s so good about the cultivation techniques left behind by that fiend?”

The girl did not refute and merely said indifferently, “Those are just rumors. The cultivators of the three aristocratic families did not even head over for the Dharma Characteristic Ranking. Who saw it personally? They are just rumors.”

Su Zimo’s heart stirred.

Three aristocratic families?

“However, I heard that Desolate Martial offended the immortal, Buddhist and fiend Daos and was encircled by them! Think about it, sister. If he wasn’t a heinous fiend, how could he be ostracized by the immortal, Buddhist and fiend Daos?”

The young man refused to give up and continued.

The girl went silent.

After a brief pause, she continued, “I’m not sure about anything else. However, we witnessed Desolate Martial establishing a Dao and imparting martial arts to all living beings. This is a glorious achievement that will bring blessings to the world!”

“Half of the Martial Sutra is passed down through the world so that all living beings in the world can cultivate it! Nothing can erase such a great merit!”

The young man seemed to be indignant still and continued, “Although that’s the case, how many people have been able to condense Blood Qi Golden Cores since Desolate Martial passed down the Martial Dao?”

“That’s normal.”

The girl said, “Cultivation is a heaven-defying act to begin with. Even among those with spirit roots, less than one in ten thousand can form a core! Furthermore, the cultivation of the Martial Dao is even more difficult!”

“Forget it, let’s not argue about such stuff.”

She waved it off and changed the topic with a smile. “You haven’t had lunch yet, right? I’ll go make you something to eat after I pack up.”

With that said, the girl pushed the door open with a creak.

The siblings stood at the entrance and saw that Su Zimo had already opened his eyes and was looking at them with a calm gaze.

The young man was not old and was around 13 years old. From a young age, he already looked mature and had a bearing.

The girl was around 16 years old and had yet to turn completely adult. However, she was already slender and elegant with skin that was fair as snow. She was extremely beautiful and her eyes were bright and spirited.

“Ah!”

The young man’s expression changed starkly as he exclaimed. In a flash, he appeared in front of the girl and glared at Su Zimo warily.

A look of surprise and joy appeared on the girl’s face when she saw that Su Zimo was awake. However, she was much calmer compared to the young man!

Su Zimo lifted the blanket on his body and stood up slowly.

“Hmm?”

The young man’s heart skipped a beat and he reacted swiftly. Slapping the storage bag on his waist, he withdrew a flying sword with a spirit pattern etched on it—it was an inferior-grade spirit weapon.

He conjured a hand seal with his left hand and controlled his flying sword with his right, ready to strike at any moment. He reminded softly, “Sister, watch out!”

Su Zimo watched carefully—the youth was at Foundation Establishment realm and his series of actions were rather swift.

However, the girl did not move at all.

When she saw how guarded the young man was, she smiled and merely shook her head gently. Pushing the young man away, she cupped her fists towards Su Zimo. “Please forgive us, mister. My younger brother is merely worried about me.”

Su Zimo nodded without saying anything and sized up the girl carefully.

Back when he was in the chaotic void and heard someone chanting the Martial Dao sutra, this should be the girl.

It was also a freak coincidence.

This girl cultivated the Martial Dao and happened to be in a nearby spatial node. Through it, she established a connection with Su Zimo who was in the wild currents of the void.

That was the reason why Su Zimo was able to escape.

Otherwise, he did not know how long he would have to continue floating if he missed this spatial node.

In other words, although the girl before him did it unintentionally, she saved his life!

Su Zimo looked at the girl in a daze.

However, the young man’s expression turned extremely terrible.

“Hey! What are you looking at? Do you believe that I’ll gouge your eyeballs out in a fit of anger?!”

The young man thought that Su Zimo had ulterior motives towards the girl and could not help but holler.

Su Zimo snapped out of his stupor and could not help but laugh when he heard the young man’s threat.

He was a Dharma Characteristic Dao Lord and could be considered as the number one Dao Lord of Tianhuang Mainland. But now, he was threatened by a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

However, the young man could not be blamed.

Right now, Su Zimo’s situation was a little special.

Before entering the wild currents of the void, the black-haired Essence Spirit was affected by the Life Severing Curse released by the self-destruction of Wu Xie’s Essence Spirit.

Up till now, the power had not dissipated and shrouded Su Zimo’s black-haired Essence Spirit.

Therefore, Su Zimo could not use the power of his Essence Spirit at all.

In other words, he could not release spirit consciousness, Dharmic arts or even Heaven and Earth Dharma Characteristics.

Others would not be able to see through him and would merely take him as a mortal.

Of course, that did not mean that he could not protect himself.

Given Su Zimo’s Green Lotus True Body, even if he did not move, any Dharma Characteristic Dao Lord might not be able to hurt him!

Furthermore, he could release shocking combat strength in melee combat with his Green Lotus True Body!

Unlike the young man, although the girl was stared at by Su Zimo for a long time, she did not feel disgusted.

For some reason, perhaps it was her sixth sense, but she could not sense the malevolent intent in the green-robed man’s heart.

Furthermore, the green-robed man’s eyes were clear and bright. Although he was staring at her, the way he looked at her was different from how many people looked at her—this gave her a sense of trust unconsciously.
