Chapter 1496: Zhu Rong Nine Families, Netherworld (3)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In terms of strength, the Peng family and the Dong family could be considered close brothers in distress.

There were even rumors in the outside world that the Peng family had even lost their family’s divine artifact.

It was just that no one had ever confirmed whether this was true or not.

Soon, our Dong family will leave your Peng family far behind, Dong Tailai thought.

Good thing? The Peng family head looked thoughtful. He looked at the luxuriously built residences in front of him with a puzzled expression. Has the poorest Dong family become rich? It should have cost a lot to build this place.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but he thought that Dong Tailai might not tell him the truth, so he decided not to ask. Anyway, he was already here. He would soon find out what the Dong family wanted to do.

After the Peng family head arrived, over the next few days, the heads of the other families of the Zhu Rong Nine Families arrived one after another. These family heads usually had nothing to do. It was rare for something to happen, so they were a little excited.

These family heads had the same thoughts as the Peng family head. They all wanted to see what the Dong family was up to.

Dong Family Fort, in the Dong family’s headquarters, outside the courtyard where the Dong family head lived…

The courtyard door creaked open, and Zhou Shu walked out.

Cao Yue went forward and called out softly, “Uncle…’

Zhou Shu nodded calmly. “Has everything been arranged?”

“Yes, everything has been arranged. The other eight families of the Zhu Rong Nine Families are already here. Those who came are all family heads,” Cao Yue whispered. He took out a small booklet from his pocket. “I’ve gathered some information about the other families. Uncle, take a look.”

Zhou Shu nodded. He took the book and put it in his pocket. Although he didn’t read it, he admired Cao Yue’s seriousness. Although Cao Yue’s aptitude wasn’t

top-notch, he was diligent and serious about everything.

“Let’s go meet the other eight families,” Zhou Shu said.

After this incident, Cao Yue had experienced a lot. Even if he didn’t take him in as a disciple, he should be able to survive in the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom.

He brought Cao Yue and Wu Gang out of the Dong family’s headquarters and was walking out of the Dong Family Fort when Mu Zhixing appeared in front of him.

Zhou Shu only looked askance at him and didn’t think too much about it. It wasn’t strange for Mu Zhixing to do anything.

“Tsk tsk! Good move.” Mu Zhixing followed beside Zhou Shu and clicked his tongue in wonder. “Gather all these clueless fools together so that we don’t have to run around. You’re indeed King Zhou. Your actions are extraordinary. “Unfortunately, I don’t know how to forge. If I had known earlier, I would have learned a few forging techniques.”

Mu Zhixing had already guessed what Zhou Shu wanted to do. It was precisely because he had guessed it that he was even more envious.

Mu Zhixing looked around sneakily. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he whispered, “King Zhou, let me tell you. At least four of the other eight families have their divine artifacts with them. I heard that when the nine divine artifacts of the Zhu Rong Nine Families fuse, something extraordinary will happen.”

“Really? Didn’t you go to get information? What will happen?” Zhou Shu asked calmly.

He had dreamed of being the Dong family head. How could he not know what Mu Zhixing knew?

Zhou Shu already knew all the secrets of the Zhu Rong Nine Families.

How could the Dong family head not know the legends of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom?

One had to know that the Dong family head was one of the most powerful people in the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom!

“Let me tell you, King Zhou. These nine divine artifacts of the Zhu Rong

Heavenly Kingdom are closely related to the legendary Netherworld, ” Mu Zhixing said mysteriously. “If you gather the nine divine artifacts, it’s said that you can see the legendary Netherworld.

“The Netherworld was a force under the Ancient Heavenly Court. It was extremely powerful…”

Mu Zhixing’s eyes lit up. When he spoke, he was almost drooling.

“Only the dead go to the Netherworld. Are you tired of living?” Zhou Shu said angrily.

“You don’t understand. Are we ordinary people? We’re martial artists! The Netherworld can imprison ordinary people, but not us,” Mu Zhixing said proudly. “Besides, how many years has it been since the Ancient Heavenly Court was destroyed? How can there be anyone in the Netherworld? It’s an ownerless treasure vault!

“King Zhou, although we’ve agreed that the nine families’ wealth will belong to you and the divine artifacts will belong to me, I, Mu Zhixing, am a particular person. If the nine divine artifacts are combined and we can really find the legendary Netherworld, I’ll give you half. How about it? I’m loyal enough, right?”

Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. You’re afraid that you won’t be able to handle things ifyou go to the Netherworld by yourself and something happens, right?

These ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court are not places you can enterjust because you find them.

Didn’t you guard the door of the Glacial Palace back then?

The Netherworld sounded much more domineering than the Glacial Palace.

“We’ll see,” Zhou Shu said noncommittally. When he dreamed of being the Dong family head, he had learned some things that outsiders didn’t know. Mu Zhixing’s idea probably wouldn’t come true.

It was already impossible to gather all nine divine artifacts of the Zhu Rong Nine Families.

Zhou Shu glanced at Mu Zhixing and asked casually, “Mu Zhixing, you want to revive the Supreme Yin Star Lord and find the Netherworld. What exactly do you want to do?”

Mu Zhixing chuckled and didn’t answer.

Zhou Shu had only asked casually, knowing that Mu Zhixing wouldn’t answer.

On the way, Mu Zhixing was much quieter.

It wasn’t until they saw the venue outside the Dong Family Fort that Mu Zhixing said excitedly, “King Zhou, do you need a shill to fool these clueless fools? Why don’t we kill a family head and you turn me into him? This way, I can be your shill and help you.”

Seeing Zhou Shu pretend to be the Dong family head, he also wanted to give it a try. It felt too good to think about playing with the enemy in the palm of his hand.

“Which family head do you want to attack? Aren’t you afraid that you’ll fail miserably?” Zhou Shu said angrily. Were the family heads of the Zhu Rong Nine Families so easy to deal with?

If not for the coincidence, he wouldn’t even be able to kill the Dong family head. Mu Zhixing was delusional..
