My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 699 - 0399 Mysterious Causality (Two in One)_2
The existence of the Glazed Dharma Body was precisely the reason why she dared to venture alone into the Demon Sect’s Holy Land... This technique has saved her countless times.
But now...
It’s been broken, just like that.
Zhu Tongjun: "..."
She had some idea of how it was broken, but just thinking about the possibility was enough to shake her greatly, even with a clear Mental Realm.
"But now is not the time to dwell on this," Zhu Tongjun raised her head to look at one of the Array Hubs of the Chaoyun Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.
Her True Yuan had been absorbed by the Array Hub due to the breaking of her Glazed Dharma Body, but her Spiritual Power was not easily consumed.
In an instant, the spiritual energy within the Array Hub transformed into a torrent, the roaring sound deafening, and if left unchecked, Beisang City would be blown sky-high.
Just as Zhu Tongjun was about to take action, she halted because a woman appeared before her.
Seeing the woman’s black hair dance gently with the wind caused by the agitation of spiritual energy, Zhu Tongjun’s eyes gently trembled, clearly shocked inside.
Who else could it be but the Sect Leader?
Sect Leader...
Why has she descended the mountain?
At this moment, Zhu Tongjun was already stunned. Even though she knew from the letter that the Sect Leader’s temperament seemed to have changed a bit, she understood that neither the problem with the Array Hub nor the breaking of her Glazed Body was worth the Sect Leader descending the mountain.
For a moment, Zhu Tongjun stood silently there.
The clear and bright eyes of Shi Qingjun flashed with a moist glow. She merely lifted her head slightly, her gaze passing through the massive torrent of spiritual energy in the sky, falling upon the Array Hub... the wind ceased, and countless spiritual energies began to riot and flee, as if that gaze was something extremely terrifying.
All in vain, though, as the torrent of spiritual energy was instantly compressed and locked into the Array Hub.
Once Shi Qingjun withdrew her gaze, only a clean Array Map remained in the sky.
The breeze was lovely, the azure sky washed clean.
"..." Zhu Tongjun took in everything, sighing gently.
This is the Qiankun Realm, no wonder Ah Bai admired the Sect Leader so much.
She walked over and respectfully bowed, saying seriously: "Guardian of Muyu Peak, Zhu Tongjun greets the Sect Leader."
As Shi Qingjun’s gaze fell upon her, Zhu Tongjun heard a word that surprised her deeply.
"How did your Glazed Dharma Body break?" Shi Qingjun asked.
Zhu Tongjun froze for a moment.
Is this something the Sect Leader would care about?
Facing the Sect Leader’s calm gaze, Zhu Tongjun regained her composure.
"It’s like this..."
Zhu Tongjun began to explain truthfully.
She knew the Sect Leader disliked hearing nonsense and that time was most precious, so she recounted everything from Xu Chang’an entering the city to her probing, and how Xu Chang’an accidentally wounded her original body, without any concealment.
There was nothing she couldn’t say because the Sect Leader knew the unique nature of Xu Chang’an, considering Xu Chang’an still had the Jade given by the Sect Leader hanging at his waist.
——
After finishing the explanation, Zhu Tongjun looked at the Sect Leader’s calm demeanor and thought to herself, aren’t these things enough to shake the Sect Leader’s mind?
Plainly, it’s already very extraordinary.
To know, Xu Chang’an managed to injure her avatar with a single sword, then the Sword Qi followed her avatar unknowingly to find her original body, breaking her Glazed Dharma Body without her sensing it.
What does this prove?
It proves that scoundrel has the capability to kill her with a single sword!
The mere thought of such a bizarre event sends chills down Zhu Tongjun’s spine, but the Sect Leader remains unmoved, as if it isn’t surprising at all.
Yet, clearly, the Sect Leader is contemplating something, so Zhu Tongjun remains silent, looking down at her toes.
She holds only respect for the Sect Leader; under heaven, the only person who could make the unruly Fairy Zhu behave obediently is the Sect Leader.
Actually, there are others in the world who could easily break her Glazed Dharma Body.
The Qiankun Realm can easily accomplish it.
The Glazed Body may be divine, but the Qiankun Realm has the ability to harm her original body directly just by touching her avatar.
This is the Qiankun Realm.
The question is, is Xu Chang’an in the Qiankun Realm?
Zhu Tongjun knows she is no different from an ant before a true Qiankun Realm, not to mention that there are levels within the Qiankun Realm—the Demon Sect’s leader cannot hold his head high against the Sect Leader at all.
"..." Zhu Tongjun shook her head gently.
Previously, she might have doubted Xu Chang’an being the reincarnation of an Immortal, but now, all doubts have vanished.
Even if Xu Chang’an isn’t an Immortal reincarnated, he is surely a Qiankun Realm expert in rebirth; otherwise, this mysterious ability can’t be explained.
Slightly raising her head, Zhu Tongjun glanced at the Sect Leader’s calm expression.
Shi Qingjun: "..."
Shi Qingjun was not surprised at all by Zhu Tongjun being injured by Xu Chang’an; in fact, she thought it was only natural. She found it odd if Zhu Tongjun was not injured, she even felt that Zhu Tongjun should have been hurt more.
Breaking a mere Glazed Divine, which doesn’t harm the foundation, and can be cultivated back in a year or so, is that considered being injured?
Shi Qingjun originally wanted to tell Zhu Tongjun not to probe that gentleman anymore, seeing this as a warning, but thinking it over... compared to her own inner conflict, Zhu Tongjun’s injury might not even count as a warning.
It’s purely a stroke of bad luck.
"Tong Jun."
"Sect Leader." Zhu Tongjun responded in surprise, raising her head.
When did the Sect Leader call her by her name so affectionately?
"Do not probe him further. If you suffer a backlash..." Shi Qingjun shook her head calmly: "Remember, let everything take its natural course."
"...Understood," Zhu Tongjun nodded.
At that moment, she finally understood what Ah Bai meant in the letter saying the Sect Leader’s temperament had changed.
Even Zhu Tongjun couldn’t help but feel her heartbeat accelerate.
Though the Sect Leader remained quiet, Zhu Tongjun no longer felt the terrifying oppression of the Heavenly Dao looking at the Sect Leader; if the Sect Leader once was like a Dao Rhyme, now she is a living person.
Zhu Tongjun was inexplicably excited.
Originally, she was greatly worried that entering the Qiankun Realm would lead to Supreme Forgetting Emotions, but seeing the Sect Leader’s change, she had no more fears.
At this moment, an invisible shackle in Zhu Tongjun’s heart shattered gently, and her hidden resistance towards breaking through to the Qiankun Realm quietly dissipated.
She wished to say something to the Sect Leader.
Wanted to ask about Xu Chang’an.
Many doubts lingered.
But as the words reached her lips, they all vanished when she met the Sect Leader’s gaze.
Forget it.
There was nothing much to say.
Shi Qingjun: "..."
In fact, she wanted to say something too, but her past nature was such that she found it hard to communicate with others.
Really strange.
She seemed pretty normal when talking to Xu Chang’an.
It must be Zhu Tongjun’s issue, she thought.
Shi Qingjun wanted to ask Zhu Tongjun’s opinion on Xu Chang’an, after all the Sword Dance had been performed and she accidentally injured herself... She wanted to remind Zhu Tongjun that he might be an Immortal reincarnate and has a wife, don’t get entangled in destiny.
But realizing one thing and what she just advised "let it take its natural course," she left it at that.
Zhu Tongjun: "..."
Could anyone tell her why she felt a trace of awkwardness?
Thinking it through, she realized it was because of the silence and the mutual glance with the Sect Leader, causing the awkwardness.
Usually, when meeting, she’d come and leave after a few words, it was bound to be awkward.
But it was certainly not the Sect Leader’s fault.
Zhu Tongjun took a deep breath and then said seriously: "Sect Leader, I have now destroyed the only avatar I had from the Hehuan Sect, to repair it might take some time, so..." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
So?
Shi Qingjun looked at her.
"So, from now on, I will personally go to the Flower Moon Building," Zhu Tongjun said softly.
She’s implying she will be residing in the brothel not with an avatar but with her actual body.
This was Zhu Tongjun’s own matter, she never needed to guard the Array Hub constantly, Shi Qingjun thought about it and knew from the start Zhu Tongjun didn’t want to live in the Flower Moon Building to avoid truly absorbing the brothel’s atmosphere.
"Mm." Shi Qingjun responded, indicating she understood.
Not adept in conversing with juniors, it’s better not to say anything.
Thus, Shi Qingjun turned to leave.
But her final remark before leaving left Zhu Tongjun stunned, frozen in place.
"Regarding the karmic consequences of this broken body, Tong Jun, mind yourself."
