“Aaah!”
Wu Shuhua spat out another mouthful of blood as the anger in her heart leaped onto her face.
Zhou Feng had clearly said that they would cooperate earlier, but why did he suddenly change to someone else!?
Zhou Feng’s punches were even more vicious than before, and he was even targeting the joints of the crispy meat.
It seemed like he wanted to beat Wu Shuhua to death.
Wu Shuhua wanted to retaliate out of anger, but the power of the bloodline curse began to surge, and intense pain immediately overwhelmed her heart the moment she had this thought.
This was the 1,000-year-old bloodline curse plaguing the Northern Region’s barbarians!
Once the other party possessed the pure Human Emperor bloodline, they wouldn’t even have the chance to attack.
A trace of sorrow appeared spontaneously.
“It seems it is indeed the truth. I’m sorry. We don’t know each other, so it was necessary to test you.”
When Zhou Feng saw this, the last trace of doubt in his heart was finally extinguished.
That performance just now was definitely not fake.
If he was willing, he could beat Wu Shuhua to death.
This performance also proved that Wu Shuhua was not lying.
There was no other way! Zhou Feng was the cautious type of person. He did not trust any strangers at all.
Even Leng Maner and Li Rong had gone through some tests to gain his trust.
If he did not confirm this before working together, the suspicion in his heart would grow.
Thus, Zhou Feng gave Wu Shuhua a good thrashing.
“You!”
Wu Shuhua’s hair was disheveled, and her eyes were as sharp as a falcon’s. She stared fixedly at Zhou Feng, and the hatred in her eyes could not be concealed.
Wu Shuhua really wanted to curse out loud right now.
‘Are you crazy!? If what I said before was not the truth, would I need to take such a huge risk to cover for you!?’
She was a Jade Lake disciple, so if news of her covering for Zhou Feng got out, she would be sentenced to death!
At that time, other than returning to the Northern Region, there would be no other place for her to go.
“To be honest! I don’t want to become a Human Emperor. Why don’t we work together?
“Help me hide the news, and I’ll help you solve that so-called curse. Also, I plan to go take a look at the Jade Lake Holy Land’s headquarters…”
Zhou Feng still acted according to his personality. He did not care about Wu Shuhua’s reaction and directly expressed his thoughts.
Why did he want to cooperate with Wu Shuhua?
The reason was very simple. He did not want to become the so-called Human Emperor.
To Zhou Feng, all he needed was time to develop.
It was still the same saying. The longer he developed with the skill panel, the more terrifying he would become.
There was no need for so many tricks.
Furthermore, if he could cooperate with Wu Shuhua, he could obtain lots of common knowledge on cultivation through her.
Zhou Feng was the one who lacked the most common knowledge on the path of cultivation.
He had already made up for many of his flaws, such as his aptitude and cultivation techniques, so it was time to resolve a few minor flaws and shortcomings.
Common sense and cultivation secrets were such shortcomings.
This was because Zhou Feng had always cultivated alone. He didn’t have a Master or a guide.
Wu Shuhua was a Jade Lake disciple. She was very familiar with the Jade Lake Holy Land, so she could definitely do something.
Zhou Feng didn’t plan to leave the Southern Border just like that. Before leaving for the Eastern Land, he planned to give the Jade Lake Holy Land a hard time.
The final reason was that after reconstructing his physical body, he had almost exhausted all of his cultivation resources.
Now that he urgently needed to replenish his cultivation resources, the Jade Lake Holy Land naturally became his first target.
“You don’t want to become the Human Emperor? And what makes you think that you can remove this curse!?”
Wu Shuhua was a little surprised.
The position of the Human Emperor was still a great temptation for most cultivators.
It was especially so for vagabond cultivators like Zhou Feng, who did not have a powerful faction backing him.
If he wanted to advance in the path of cultivation, it was a very good choice to become the Human Emperor successor in the Northern Region.
After all, just by relying on the Human Emperor bloodline, Zhou Feng would be able to obtain a large number of resources from the barbarians.
Obviously, Zhou Feng’s thoughts were different from those of ordinary cultivators.
Then, he said that he wanted to solve the curse.
Wu Shuhua felt that it was not feasible from the bottom of her heart.
If the curse could be solved so easily, Wu Shuhua would not have traveled so far to the Southern Border.
Wu Shuhua’s mission was not only to find the pure Human Emperor bloodline but also to find a way to get rid of the bloodline curse.
The world was so big, and there were so many cultivators. The barbarians believed that they could find a solution, but they had not encountered it yet.
“The solution is very simple. If you obtained the pure Human Emperor bloodline, won’t the curse be negated?” Zhou Feng replied nonchalantly to Wu Shuhua’s question.
Since the curse was directed at the ordinary Human Emperor bloodline, then he would help her purify her bloodline.
Wouldn’t it be fine if she became the Human Empress?
This thought popped up in Zhou Feng’s mind the moment Wu Shuhua mentioned the curse.
“I’ll have the Human Emperor bloodline…”
Wu Shuhua was instantly stunned because it sounded very reasonable. The curse had been urging her to search for the pure Human Emperor bloodline.
And as she grew older, the curse would be triggered from time to time.
If she didn’t find the pure Human Emperor bloodline to relieve the pain of the ants biting her heart, the curse would be triggered continuously.
However, if she had the pure Human Emperor bloodline, the curse should no longer affect her!
“That’s not right! Purifying the Human Emperor bloodline might sound simple, but it’s impossible for me to have it!”
After being stunned for a few seconds, Wu Shuhua immediately reacted.
The pure Human Emperor bloodline was not something that could be obtained just like that.
If she could possess the pure Human Emperor bloodline so easily, the Northern Region barbarians would not have sent so many people to search for it every year.
“Before today, I was still a mortal. My Human Emperor bloodline is extremely thin. Guess where my Human Emperor bloodline came from?”
“Impossible! You…”
Wu Shuhua’s first thought was that it was impossible.
Could it be possible to purify the Human Emperor bloodline?
In this era, the original version of the Emperor Coiling Scripture could no longer be cultivated. If one were to cultivate it forcefully, only death would be awaiting them.
“Believe it or not, it’s up to you. Besides, you have no other choice but to cooperate with me.”
Seeing that Wu Shuhua still had a look of disbelief on her face, Zhou Feng started to get impatient. He did not have so much time to waste here, so he threatened her.
Only then did Wu Shuhua realize that her life seemed to have been in Zhou Feng’s hands the whole time.
If she did not cooperate, there would be no other outcome but death.
What was the point of thinking so much if that were the case?
