Chapter 311 - 181: Triple Yin Physique, Embracing Dragon Transformation [Subscribe Requested]
Although he scolded the naïve young girl Zhou Yudie, Zhou Chun had decided to take her away with him.
It was not easy for a member of the Zhou Family to possess Spirit Root Aptitude. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Now that he had discovered her, he could not simply let her potential go to waste.
Moreover, the "Triple Yin Physique" that the young girl Zhou Yudie possessed was indeed unsuitable for her to stay in the current Fengguo, ruled by the Corpse Demon Sect.
It was fortunate that he came across this matter; otherwise, Zhou Yudie would likely become a powerful trump card for the She Family in the future.
Because someone like her with Spirit Root Aptitude, who was born in a yin year, yin month, and yin hour, as a "Triple Yin Physique" of the Human Clan, was excellent material for Corpse Refinement.
A refined corpse with such a special physique had very high potential for growth in the future. With decent sacrificial refinement techniques and a bit of nurturing, it could be cultivated to the second order.
If one was willing to invest substantial resources in nurturing, it could even have the chance of forming a Corpse Pill and become a fourth-order refined corpse!
However, this was also lucky for the young girl Zhou Yudie.
If it weren’t for the fact that those cultivators from the She Family had too low Cultivation Levels and inadequate methods, necessitating the use of rituals like the matching Yin marriage to process her, she might have been taken away and buried in the ground the moment she was discovered to have the "Triple Yin Physique."
After deciding to take Zhou Yudie away, Zhou Chun then took her to meet his parents for one final farewell.
Once Zhou Yudie, filled with reluctance, said her goodbyes to her parents and relatives, Zhou Chun looked at her and said, "I am now sending you to the Zhou Family in Jingguo Country. From now on, you should cultivate well there. The cultivators there are all from the same ancestor as you, and they will help you." Read latest chapters on empire
"Ah! Master, don’t you want your disciple anymore?"
Zhou Yudie exclaimed in surprise, looking at Zhou Chun pitifully, her eyes filled with panic.
"Don’t call me Master. This title cannot be used carelessly in the Cultivation World!"
Zhou Chun rebuked her sternly.
The mentor-disciple inheritance is a very profound relationship in the Cultivation World, comparable to that of father and son.
Respectable cultivators would not take on disciples lightly.
Although Zhou Yudie’s aptitude was decent, being a medium-grade Spiritual Root and a "Triple Yin Physique," Zhou Chun was not interested in taking a disciple.
After rebuking her, he spoke in a low voice to explain, "I am going to a dangerous place to do a dangerous thing. I will not have the time to teach you cultivation, and that place is not suitable for you to stay!"
"Knowing the danger, why do you still choose to go?"
The girl looked at Zhou Chun with bewilderment, quietly voicing the doubts in her heart.
Zhou Chun heard this and let out a long sigh, "Because when one is in the Cultivation World, one often has no control over their own fate."
Hearing his words, the girl instantly thought of her own experiences and then fell silent.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun shook his head and said, "See, I told you before, the life of a cultivator is not as wonderful as you imagine. The hardships cultivators must endure are much greater than those faced by ordinary mortals!"
After finishing, he waved his hand and said, "Alright, once you become a true cultivator in the future and experience the cruelty of the Cultivation World, you will naturally understand what I have told you."
Then, he directly took the young girl away from Fengguo, heading straight for Jingguo Country.
After more than ten days on the road, Zhou Chun arrived not far from Jiufeng Ridge, then changed his appearance to another person and went to present his visiting card at the mountain gate, indicating his wish to see the Clan Leader of the Zhou Family, Zhou Daoyi.
When he left for Fengguo, Zhou Daoyi had already announced internally his departure to follow Elder Zhou Daoquan on a journey.
Therefore, for the time being, he could not show himself in front of the Zhou Family Cultivators.
Upon receiving Zhou Chun’s visiting card, Zhou Daoyi quickly came to lead him into the Zhou Family.
"Zhengchun, what’s going on with you? Why have you returned to the family so soon?"
Inside the living room, Zhou Daoyi looked at Zhou Chun, who had altered his appearance, with a face full of astonishment and curiosity about his sudden return.
"During my travels in Fengguo, I visited our family’s ancestral grounds and encountered some issues," Zhou Chun replied, slowly relating to Zhou Daoyi what he had seen and heard during his visit to Zhou City, as well as the process and outcome of his encounter with Zhou Yudie.
After listening to his travel experiences, Zhou Daoyi’s expression also turned grave, and he remained silent for a long time.
Often the same words, when spoken by different people, at different times, and in different circumstances, have completely different effects.
Back when the Zhou Family Cultivators who had migrated the mortals to Fengguo spoke about the tragic circumstances of the family members left behind, the Zhou Family had just started taking root in Jiufeng Ridge not long before, trying to establish a firm foundation while being at constant risk of collapse.
Even after hearing those words, Zhou Daoyi, as the Clan Leader, had neither the leisure nor the capacity to care about them.
But now that the foundation of the Zhou Family was solid and the initial signs of rejuvenation were apparent,
Hearing about the fate of those family mortals left behind in Fengguo from the mouth of Zhou Chun, the Vice Clan Leader, how could Zhou Daoyi not be moved and deep in thought.
After a long silence, Zhou Daoyi finally spoke in a low voice, "In our haste to abandon them and flee Fengguo back then, we indeed did not do well enough!"
"Had we arranged for some people to stay behind and organize an early migration away from the ancestral land, we could have possibly completed the migration before the She Family’s mortals arrived, sparing them the torment of the She Family!"
But saying such things now was undoubtedly too late.
In that situation back then, which Zhou Family Cultivator would have dared to stay behind?
The Corpse Demon Sect was not just about killing people; they also refined people’s corpses into refined corpses!
