Chapter 2085: Compensation

Shi Bingxiu moved over to Zu An’s side and said, “We’ve already pushed back the monsters according to our agreement. It's time for you to fulfill your promise.”

When he saw the departed spirits stare at him with fiery gazes, Zu An wondered whether they would rip him to pieces if he said he couldn't do it. He looked up at the crack. The monsters were currently looking through the cracks as well. If the departed soldiers disappeared, they would then immediately charge over.

Even so, it wasn’t realistic to demand that these departed spirits run into the crack to chase after the monsters. Zu An remained quiet for a moment before quickly saying, “Wait for a bit until I deal with these monsters first.”

Shi Bingxiu was a bit doubtful, asking, “How will you deal with them?”

From his perspective, this situation was already far from something human power could resolve.

Zu An quickly thought about how to deal with the crack in the sky that was growing larger and larger. He did know some monster-sealing formations, but they could only be used on a smaller scale. They would naturally be useless against something of this size. However, when he thought about monster-sealing formations, he suddenly recalled something.

He took out the jade coffin. When he opened it, he saw that Qiu Honglei was still lying inside calmly like a statue. However, Zu An hadn’t brought the coffin out for her sake; instead, he removed an elegant and refined ancient talisman from within.

At first, he'd been a bit worried when Mi Li suggested to store Qiu Honglei in the jade coffin, because it was also the place where Jing Teng was sleeping. Even so, the jade coffin was big enough to fit them both, so he had opened it up anyway. But then, he'd discovered that Jing Teng had actually turned into a talisman. It seemed that returning to her original form would make it easier for her to recover.

When he saw the delicate talisman, Zu An’s expression changed greatly. After all, the two of them had shared the most intimate kind of relationship...

As if sensing the movement, the talisman moved. Then, a clear light floated out and drifted through the air. The talisman turned into Jing Teng. She opened her eyes drowsily. When she saw Zu An, she exclaimed with a huge smile, “Oh! Is it time for treatment? I thought you'd forgotten about me. Come over here.” She enthusiastically grabbed Zu An’s arm while speaking.

When he saw the beautiful Jing Teng act playfully around Zu An, as if she was asking for permission to do it right then and there, Shi Bingxiu's eyes widened. fr(e)enovelkiss.com

This kid is really, really lucky! Sigh, that’s what the joys of living should look like!

Mi Li had an ambiguous smile. She naturally knew what the so-called treatment was.

Zu An was really embarrassed when he sensed their strange looks. He looked at Jing Teng’s legs.

Black leggings? So it’s Dark Jing Teng. No wonder she’s so enthusiastic.

He quickly said, “There’s a serious problem right now...”

He then gave a rough explanation of the spatial crack in the distance. “An ancient seal was broken and the foreign monsters are trying to invade this world. I want to repair the seal. Do you have any ideas?”

Jing Teng had previously sealed countless powerful beings within a great tomb, and that seal was far superior to this one. She would be a good specialist to talk about the subject with.

Dark Jing Teng immediately sneered and said, “I thought you missed me, but you actually called me out because you needed me for something.”

Zu An could only pamper her by saying, “Come on, I really did miss you, but as of late, I've kept encountering these events that are trying to destroy the world and haven't had any free time at all.”

“Hah, keep up the act. Do you think I’m that easy to fool?” Dark Jing Teng sneered.

Zu An was getting a bit of a headache. Dark Jing Teng had once been the Ghost King. She'd had a bunch of strong individuals under her, so she was definitely not that easily swayed. He could only reply, “What can hair be attached to if there's no skin? Once I save this world, I’ll compensate you properly, okay?”

When she heard him emphasize the word ‘compensate’, Dark Jing Teng seemed to realize something and her face reddened. She harrumphed and said, “For all I care, this world can just be destroyed then. With your current ability, we can just go to another world.”

Zu An frowned and said, “I have many friends and loved ones in this world, and even if they weren't here, I wouldn't be able to just watch as a world was destroyed by monsters just like that.”

“Hmph, what are you getting all serious for? I finally got a chance to come out, and yet it wasn’t for romance, but rather these kinds of annoying things that ruin the mood. If you’re so awesome, why don’t you go and save the world yourself?” Dark Jing Teng retorted. Having been the Ghost King, how could she tolerate this kind of disappointment? The two quickly reached a standstill.

Mi Li suddenly said, “Ah Zu, there's such a huge hole in the sky right now. Having a little girl like her help you might be troubling her too much, right? How about we ask her older sister and see if she has any solutions?”

“Who said I was only acting like this because I don’t have a solution?” Dark Jing Teng exclaimed, immediately getting provoked. She glared at Mi Li. “And who is this auntie here? Go away and stop causing trouble around Ah Zu.”

Mi Li narrowed her eyes, her gaze immediately becoming unpleasant. Dark Jing Teng didn’t back down and stared right back at her.

Zu An could only introduce her by saying, “She's my master.”

Dark Jing Teng’s expression grew rigid, but then she immediately said with a sweet smile, “So it was master; why didn’t you tell me earlier? And here I was thinking it was just another seductive slut who lusted after Ah Zu’s body. Please don’t take any offense. master; I’ll pour tea for you as an apology.” She took out a cup of tea that came from who knew where to hand over to Mi Li.

Mi Li had an ambiguous smile as she remarked, “That means that you really do have a solution, yes?”

“Are you joking with me right now? I single-handedly suppressed beings that were indescribably powerful throughout the ages. There’s no way I wouldn’t know how to fix such a trifling seal,” Dark Jing Teng said proudly.

As he watched her arrogant behavior, Zu An started to feel a bit vexed. He said, “If I had known this earlier, I would’ve called you out sooner.”

If he'd done that, perhaps Chu Chuyan and Qiu Honglei wouldn't have ended up in their current state.

“It's the perfect timing now,” Dark Jing Teng said, suddenly feeling guilty. She'd actually just been talking big for most of what she just said. In her current state, even if she'd come out earlier, she wouldn’t have been able to do much. In order to hide her embarrassment, she quickly said, “Judging from the current circumstances, it seems the seal has just broken. There's still a way to fix it, but we need the articles used to bear the burden of the seal. For example, just like me and my big sister, a seal needs a vital formation eye or divine artifact. If we can’t find it, there’s nothing I can do.”

Zu An was startled. He took out the Skycloud Sword and asked, “Is this enough?”

Dark Jing Teng moved her fingers gently over the surface, saying, “Hm? This does have a connection with the seal, but its power alone seemingly isn’t enough. It's still missing something else.”

“Wait for a moment!” Zu An replied, closing his eyes. He sensed the positions of the other two snowy mountains and reached out his hand, calling out, “Come!”

Two streaks of light quickly flew in his direction. They were none other than the Ninefoot Mirror and the Soul Capturing Jade!

As it turned out, when the powerful being appeared, causing the changes that had taken place, the seal loosened up. The two artifacts had also been shaken out of the snowy mountains. These divine artifacts resonated with each other, which was why they were so easily summoned over.

Dark Jing Teng looked at the three divine artifacts in her hand and said, “Alright, it feels complete now.” f reeweb novel.com

With a wave of her hand, the three divine artifacts floated around them. Then, her hands formed all sorts of complicated seals. Streaks of light scattered into the surrounding space, gradually forming lines that were faintly visible in the air. They vaguely made out the outline of a giant formation. Meanwhile, the three divine artifacts flew to three different locations to supply the formation with an unending stream of power.

The monsters that had just been watching the situation noticed that something wasn’t right. They screamed, “Hurry and stop that woman! She's repairing the seal!” The monsters could no longer hold themselves back and charged at Jing Teng.

Zu An looked at Shi Bingxiu and said, “I’ll leave it to you.”

Shi Bingxiu felt a wave of resentment build up inside.

Screw you! You’re enjoying your time with girls, and yet we're the ones who have to fight to the death?

Do I have to help you push your butt later too?

But with how things stood, he didn’t dare to argue back. He only stared at Zu An and said, “If you go back on your promise, I'll make sure that you won’t have a pleasant death.”

You have successfully trolled Shi Bingxiu for +444 +444 +444...

Then, he summoned his subordinates and once again charged forward to stop the incoming monsters.

...

A while later, Dark Jing Teng finally finished what she was doing. Then, she shouted, “Seal!”

The faintly discernible lines in the sky immediately shone with brilliance. A large-scale formation appeared in the air. The three artifacts each went to three different formations, forming a giant ‘seal’ character when combined!

Immediately after, the formation quickly moved toward the giant crack in the air. The monsters behind the crack were all stirred up. They all struggled to rush through. Soon after, a massive claw reached out from within. The pressure immediately felt as if a great primordial beast had appeared in this world.

Zu An’s expression changed a bit. He looked at the crack nervously. This kind of presence was incomparable to the Lord of Slaughter, but it wasn’t far off. If it really crossed over, there wouldn’t be anyone who could face it.

The massive claw tore at the sides of the spatial crack, and sure enough, it opened up a bit. Even a massive, powerfully-built figure became faintly visible. However, the giant ‘seal’ character appeared on the spatial crack once again, causing it to close at a visible rate. In response, even more claws reached out from inside the crack. Because of the two competing forces, the crack alternately widened and narrowed.

Dark Jing Teng harrumphed. She used another magical skill, and a beam of light fired onto the formation. The three divine artifacts suddenly glowed brightly, and the formation became twice as bright as before. Countless furious and unwilling roars resounded from behind the crack, as the monsters could no longer stop the spatial crack from closing. In roughly the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the sky returned to how it had been before. Everything became calm once more.

Zu An and the others were naturally really happy to see the blue sky and white clouds again. The monsters that had crossed over screamed in despair. They all flew into the air to try and reopen the gateway.

Shi Bingxiu didn’t let such a great chance go. He led the departed spirits in a one-sided slaughter, killing all of the monsters that crossed over.

“Thank you,” Zu An said as he moved over to Jing Teng’s side excitedly.

Jing Teng was about to say something, but her complexion was extremely pale. She couldn't help but faint in his arms. Her final words before fainting were, “I really lost a lot this time. You have to keep me company for ten days. No, a whole month, every single day!”
