Chapter 39: The Punishment for Gluttony

  This is a very bad feeling.

  Kong Zhan always thought he was a good person, at least not a bad one. But now, he suddenly feels that the definition of "good person" is actually very false.

  The girl in front of you stared at you with a pair of watery eyes, and her gaze was exactly the same as Zhou Xue's eight years ago.

  "Could this bird be hers?" thought Kong Zhen sadly, with a bone in his mouth.

  Eight years ago, I secretly couldn't resist the temptation and cooked a small dog raised by Zhou Xue. At that time, Xiao Yatou looked at me with the same eyes as this little girl in front of me.

  "This, miss, this bird isn't yours, is it?!" He waved the leftover bones in his hand and asked somewhat awkwardly.

  Indeed, he now has an innocent and ignorant look on his face, but secretly, he has gathered the innate purple energy in his body, and the invisible force network centered around him is also beginning to transform in a complex direction.

  This girl looks young, only 14 or 15 years old, with a sweet and innocent face, a pair of big eyes shining brightly, revealing sadness and grievance that can melt the hearts of 99.99999% of men in this world.

  Kong Yan is one of those men who account for 0.0001% of the population.

  She looked very strange.

  It wasn't until they were within three li of the village that Kong Zhongzi realized it.

  Firstly, her cultivation is obviously higher than Kong Zhao's, and secondly, she is too fast.

  At the same time as Kong Zhan's perception, she had already forced her way into three miles.

  So, Kong Zhan was very cautious. This girl looked very young, but who knows if she was a hundred-year-old with a perverted mind, disguising herself as a 14 or 15-year-old?

  Although such things are rare, they do exist.

  However, soon this woman's behavior broke his speculation. No matter how abnormal or pretending to be young, an older cultivator would not stare at a man for half a day, then suddenly let out a loud cry with tears in her eyes, and then swing the sword in her hand to chop.

  Very troublesome, very unlucky.

  To be honest, the swordsmanship this woman uses is of a very high level, and in the world of cultivation, it can be considered one of the most profound swordsmanships. However, her own sword skills are not particularly impressive, and her understanding of the intent behind the sword is also quite ordinary, roughly on the same level as those disciples from the Luo Fu sect.

  A set of extremely profound sword techniques in her hands became mediocre, without major mistakes, but also no brilliant moves, all just tracing the outline. This further solidified Kong Zhuan's judgment that she was not very old. A swordsman over a hundred years old with such skills didn't need to come out and mingle; they might as well find a block of tofu to crash into and die.

  But after confirming this matter, Kong Zhuang's heart became even more uneasy.

  Because the swordsmanship of this little girl in front of me is quite good, but her cultivation is extremely high.

  After the first time he went down to Luofu, Kong Zhuo gained a great deal of benefit. Since then, he has always been very confident in his own cultivation. Although he usually has a gentle face and maintains a humble and polite attitude towards everyone, in his opinion, purely in terms of cultivation, among the third generation disciples of Luofu and even the entire cultivation world, he is one of the top two. There are really not many peers who can catch his eye.

  Think about it, not yet twenty years old, the congenital purple energy cultivation has already reached the fifth layer realm, twelve meridians have been opened nine times, according to his calculation, in another year or two, as long as he maintains this state of practice, then completely breaking through the twelve meridians and cultivating the congenital purple energy to the sixth layer realm is not a difficult thing.

  But with such cultivation, in front of this 14 or 15-year-old girl, it seems rather shabby.

  The little girl in front of him, her swordsmanship was indeed poor, but the power emanating from her sword made Kong Zhuo's scalp tingle. The sword couldn't cut through Kong Zhuo, but the sharp and unparalleled sword energy emanating from it made Kong Zhuo feel a chill to his very core.

  This little girl's cultivation is at least equivalent to the eighth layer of innate purple energy in the Luofu Sect, the eighth layer!!!

  Bei Kong Zhan strengthened by three layers, what does this mean?

  This means that the younger this little girl is, the more dangerous she is. This means that this little girl's background is strong enough, at least not worse than Luo Fu, because even Luo Fu can't make his three-generation disciples reach such strength at this age.

  "When doing business with others, you can't just look at how much money they have. This will often cause you to miss out on many opportunities!"

  His father's words echoed in his ears again.

  "Sometimes, a person may not be well-known, but they can bring you enormous wealth. Always remember that in this world, no matter how much wealth an individual has, what they can do is limited. A person, even if they are rich enough to rival a country, cannot replace a nation. An individual's power, no matter how strong, cannot overturn the sky. Only when a group of people's powers come together is it truly formidable. Therefore, when facing an individual, whether in cooperation or confrontation, what needs to be considered is not just the other person as an individual, but also the large group of people they represent!"

  But from the strength that this little girl is now showing, Kong Zhuo can judge that she is not fighting alone. There must be a strong power and background behind her to make such a young girl have such a strong cultivation.

  To put it bluntly, this time he seemed to have stepped on a big iron plate.

  It's a trample rather than a kick, kicking is intentional, while trampling is unintentional.

  This time, he was unintentional.

  And what happened next further confirmed his conjecture.

  His gravity net is useless now.

  The change in gravity had little effect on her, for when the changed gravity acted upon her, the purple garment she wore would flash with a halo of light, completely dissolving the gravitational net.

  That garment is also apparently a treasure.

  Kong Zhan's face was twisted in a bitter smile, his short sword dancing wildly as he pushed the defensive techniques of the Er Fen Gui Yuan Sword to their limits.

  Defend, can only defend

  Kong Rong's body was like a boulder in the sea, battered by huge waves, but he stood firm and unmoving, and in fact, he couldn't move even if he wanted to.

  The little girl's swordsmanship was not great, but the mighty sword energy emitted from her sword formed a destructive zone around Kong Zhuo like a wave, and the stone cliff beneath his feet had already been struck into countless fragments by the sharp sword energy. Only the stone under Kong Zhuo's feet remained intact.

  This is also where Kong Zhuan can be proud of, under the sharp attack of this little girl with her powerful cultivation and sword in hand, his footsteps did not move much, front and back left and right all kept within three feet square, relying solely on one move to seal off her offense.

  He wasn't without the opportunity to win, but after figuring out the little girl's strength, he completely gave up on attacking and adopted a purely defensive stance, relying on his super strong swordsmanship to maintain an undefeated record despite the disparity in their cultivation levels.

  Her skills are high, but like her, recklessly chopping and hacking, can't last long.

  As he had expected, after nearly half an hour of frantic attacks that still didn't work, the girl gave up her attack.

  But this abandoned way made Kong Zhuo somewhat unprepared.

  She let out a loud "wow" and burst into tears, throwing the sword in her hand to one side. After bouncing twice on the ground, it fell into the deep hole at the edge of the cliff.

  "Uh, hey, this...!" Extremely embarrassed, Kong Zhuo became flustered.

  This little girl crouched on the ground, her head buried between her knees, wailing away without a shred of self-awareness that a practitioner should have.

  "Little sister, don't cry anymore, okay..."

  "Don't cry, you won't be pretty if you keep crying!"

  "Cry too much and you'll be left on the shelf!"

  ………

  ………

  It took half a time to hit, but the cry was cried for a whole time. It's also a cultivator who can bear it. If it were an ordinary person, the tears would have dried up after crying for a whole hour, but this one is still full of energy and crying there.

  "Go ahead and cry, cry slowly, I don't believe you can cry until nightfall!"

  From dawn till now in this godforsaken place, several hours have passed. At this moment, the sun has risen to the top of our heads, dispelling the chill here.

  If you have what it takes, cry for another hour!

  Kong Zhan had some ruthless thoughts in his heart.

  But after a while, it seemed to be the limit, and the little girl gradually stopped crying.

  Kong Zong let out a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't cry, it was fine.

  All that could be seen was the little girl slowly lifting her head, raising her small face like a pear blossom in the rain, pitifully gazing at Kong Zhuo.

  For no reason, Kong Zhuang felt a sourness in his heart, as if he had done something terribly wrong, and almost hated himself to death.

  "Alright, don't cry...!" Kong Zhan said in a soft voice, very low and gentle, with a hint of coaxing.

  She blinked her eyes and the little girl spoke up in a very wronged tone.

  "Grandpa!"

  She called out.

  "Grandfather?!" Kong Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and then his face stiffened as he felt a hand on the back of his head.

  I really want to change the title of this chapter to "Punishment for Impulsiveness". Before uploading this book, I had a draft of 100,000 words and thought it was enough. However, alas, after adding more chapters last week to rush up the rankings, my draft has been used up. What bad luck! In the future, I will strive to update two chapters at most and at least one chapter, definitely won't let it go dormant, and increase my writing intensity.
