Chapter 43.3

Face-Slapping the White Lotus Merman (3.3)

Editor: ghost

The whip hit An Si again and again, “Pa, pa, pa…”

However, An Si still continued to say how much he wanted to save people and how afraid of rejection he was. Most people at the scene closed their eyes; An Xiao truly did not have one bit of soft-heartedness. After dozens of lashes, An Si’s clothes were soaked with blood. It was a scary sight to behold.

An Si was hit until he could only hang his head, curled up in a corner. Only the sound of his pitiful sobs remained.

Despite this, An Si did not return the shark’s tooth.

An Xiao’s whip could lash no longer. He himself was already tired.

In the end, he looked at An Si who was lying on the floor, and heaved a long sigh, “An Si, return the canine tooth, apologise, then ask the Spirit Shark to borrow this tooth. Can you do that?”

An Si whose whole body was covered in blood, raised his head. His face was filled with tears. He looked at the clan leader he had always liked and slowly, but firmly, shook his head, “Clan Leader, to save my lover, I am not wrong.”

An Xiao was thoroughly disappointed. He returned the whip to the Spirit Eel and dejectedly glanced at An Si before turning and walking to Zhou Xu. He kneeled on one knee and said, “Second Prince, from this day onwards, our southern ocean merman clan will not acknowledge An Si. If Second Prince is willing to allow him to remain, please notify our merman clan. Otherwise, the clan will drive him out everytime we see him.”

Zhou Xu watched the show for half a day and felt that it was enough. He walked over to help An Xiao up.

Looking down at An Si, Zhou Xu said, “Return the Spirit Shark’s tooth.”

“No, otherwise my lover will die, wuwuwu…” An Si’s tears seemed endless, continuously falling drop by drop.

Zhou Xu smiled. He never thought that An Si could be this stubborn.

“Fine, since you won’t return it, then we can only take it by force.” Zhou Xu raised his hand and a group of people restrained An Si. The tooth in his possession fell to the ground. He reached out to pick it up, but was held down. He could not reach it no matter how hard he tried.

Zhou Xu stepped forward and bent down to pick the tooth up. He then placed it into the Spirit Shark’s hands.

Turning again, Zhou Xu walked back to An Si. He faintly smiled and said, “An Si, if you want to blame someone, blame that your cultivation is insufficient. Even if you want to steal the tooth, as long as I want to get it back, then I can do so at anytime.”

Zhou Xu faced the audience and loudly said, “From today onwards, An Si will be banished from the southern ocean.”

An Si’s tears fell more intensely. He was choked with sobs and could not voice any words. He felt wrongfully punished; he truly felt that he had done nothing wrong. He liked Zhao Shuxuan so much that he would do anything for him.

But why did no one understand? Why did everyone only care that he stole something? He felt that he was not an evil person, but why did he have a stealing charge stuck on him? He never harmed anyone, but why did the heavens treat him so unfairly?

He clearly could do it; as long as Zhou Xu did not care, he could do anything. The previous time with the Thousand Year Chi and now with the canine tooth, why did it seem like Zhou Xu knew his movements beforehand? Right, it must be Zhou Xu. It must be his scheme.

An Si looked at Zhou Xu, eyes burning with anger, “Zhou Xu, it must be that you used some crafty scheme hence you knew that I wanted to take the canine tooth. It must be, otherwise others would not be able to see me, how could it be someone else? Only you, you are from the dragon clan. You planned and prepared right from the start for me to be humiliated. This is all to banish me, am I correct?”

An Si grew angrier the more he spoke. He used all his strength to howl, “You definitely knew from the start that I would come, that’s why you intentionally prevented me from running away. Despicable.”

An Xiao could not bear listening on; An Si was completely unreasonable.

An Xiao turned his head to look away, but Zhou Xu was not angry at all. He leisurely walked up to the captured An Si and smiled lightly, “Yes. I precisely knew you were going to steal something, thus I sealed the Dragon King’s Palace. But if you didn’t steal, then what would you be afraid of? Hence, An Si, before you yell and howl, shouldn’t you first understand what is putting the cart before the horse?”

An Si still wanted to shout, but Zhou Xu could not be bothered to listen. He cast a silencing spell and An Si could no longer say anything.

At present, the Spirit Shark held onto his canine tooth and walked up to An Si. He heaved a long sigh before saying, “An Si, mermen and sharks have always been enemies, but your father and I could be considered old friends. If you honestly came to borrow and spoke in a gentle manner, how could I not lend it to you?”

The Spirit Shark placed the tooth into An Si’s hands, “Ai, take it. I’ll give you three days. Afterwards, I will retrieve it myself.”

An Si was stunned. He stared blankly at the Spirit Shark as tears continued to fall endlessly.

“I….” He quietly looked at the Spirit Shark and finally, genuinely admitted his mistake. He covered his eyes and said, “I was wrong.”

However, this world had no medicine for regret. He had already made a mistake and the southern ocean’s mermen would no longer acknowledge him, to the extent that the entire southern ocean would not accept him. He was exiled from the ocean and even if he went to the eastern ocean with his father’s protection, his life would no longer be smooth in the future; he would be pointed at and despised by others.

Zhou Xu could not be bothered to dispute over this. He drove the spiritual energy in his body and activated his cultivation, removing the restriction seal on the Dragon King’s palace.

“You should leave.” Zhou Xu said to An Si, his voice lacking warmth as usual.

Although he genuinely acknowledged his mistake, An Si began to despise Zhou Xu; he felt that his grievances and punishment were all solely because of Zhou Xu

Ming Chi knew the grave implications of the Netherworld Ghost King’s presence, and went to find Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan was calm and poised as usual as he sat on a praying mat. He asked Ming Chi, “You’re saying that the human world’s disasters were all the work of the Netherworld Ghost King?”

Ming Chi nodded, “At least 80%. The remaining 20% is because the current imperial court is already rotting.”

“Then tell me something: what is the point? I am merely a mortal.”

“I am not counting on you. I just want to inform you in hopes that you will not be too shocked, no matter what you see in the future. You only need to do your job as the Zhanlan troops’ leader well.”

“Then what do you plan to do?”

“I need to first test the Netherworld Ghost King’s strength. As for other matters, I will put it off until the right time.”

“Okay. I only wish for the populace’s happiness and health. As for the rest, I will let you decide.”

An Si was finally able to leave the palace. He held onto the Spirit Shark’s canine tooth and flew to find Zhao Shuxuan. However, he only found Zhao Shuxuan on the third day, imprisoned in a shabby firewood room. The current Zhao Shuxuan was already covered in cuts and bruises.

Giving the tooth to Zhao Shuxuan, An Si lightly kissed the wound on his forehead and said, “Shuxuan, believe me, you definitely can do it. This is the Spirit Shark’s canine tooth; it can transform into the most amazing weapon. You only need to drip your blood onto it to use it.”

The canine tooth itself was already an amazing weapon, but because mermen and sharks were enemies, mermen could not use it. However, Zhao Shuxuan was completely able to.

Zhao Shuxuan slowly stood up. This movement caused the wounds on his body to open up. Zhao Shuxuan experienced unbearable pain, but to escape, he could only endure.

He used the tip of his finger to dab onto the blood flowing out of his wounds, before smearing it on the canine tooth.

The enormous tooth emitted faint rays of pale purple. The light slowly followed his arm to enter his body. At this moment, Zhao Shuxuan could not feel pain from his injured body anymore. On the contrary, he was filled with power.

He casually wielded the canine tooth and a bright purple ray shot out. The door that trapped him was split into two.

Zhao Shuxuan and An Si were stunned. They knew that the canine tooth was powerful, but never expected that it would be to this extent. Zhao Shuxuan was merely a mortal, yet with the help of the tooth, he could explode with such strength. It was indeed inconceivable.

This movement caught the notice of the killers and some of them quickly surrounded the two. Zhao Shuxuan thought of a longsword’s appearance in his mind and unexpectedly, the canine tooth changed into that appearance.

With a faintly purple tip, Zhao Shuxuan wielded the sword as he wished. The killers could not avoid his sword and directly died with a single strike of Zhao Shuxuan’s sword.

Zhao Shuxuan looked at the sword in his hands. He was extremely happy; he was only a scholar and had never thought that he too could use a longsword to kill enemies.

The few initial killers were quickly defeated by Zhao Shuxuan. More killers came and this group was clearly different from the first group; their weapons had different coloured tips.

Zhao Shuxuan understood that these people were cultivators and were different from him, different from all the mortals.

In the beginning, Zhao Shuxuan was chased by them. He was absolutely not their opponent; they could casually send out a palm and ordinary people would be left with only half their life.

With some uneasiness, Zhao Shuxuan thought of Ke Yuanlin wielding his sword and copied his movements. Although there was no foundation, his movement was similar.

The killers attacked. Zhao Shuxuan’s somewhat structured movements were lost. He randomly swung the sword in his hand, fighting the killers.

Zhao Shuxuan could feel the sword in his hands hit something. He did not care nor think about it and used more strength to eliminate the obstruction. He did not dare open his eyes.

Zhao Shuxuan was stunned when he opened his eyes. Were the messy corpses on the ground his own doing?

An Si walked over and hugged Zhao Shuxuan, “We should quickly escape.”

However, Zhao Shuxuan smiled. In An Si’s eyes, this smile was somewhat crazed.

“We have this kind of weapon, why do we still need to run?”

Two figures appeared in front of them just when Zhao Shuxuan finished speaking. These two were precisely the Spirit Shark and Zhou Xu.
