Chapter 981 The Art of Tranquility
A desolate land.
On a huge throne.
A golden holy sword, imbued with the laws of power, was planted on the throne, radiating a golden sword light.
A huge lion with orange fur was fast asleep in front of the throne.
Shen Qingzhu flew through the air and saw that the lion was asleep. She slowly folded her wings and quietly landed next to the throne.
Racing against time, Shen Qingzhu naturally thought that she should avoid fighting if possible and just steal it.
Shen Qingzhu tiptoed toward the throne, intending to steal the Angelic Sword silently while the lion was asleep.
Shen Qingzhu's attention was entirely focused on the angelic sword stuck in the throne, and she didn't notice her feet at all...
The lion, who was fast asleep in front of the throne, suddenly flicked its tail, appearing right where Shen Qingzhu had just stepped!
"Roar!!!"
A painful roar rang out, and a terrifying force rippled out, sending Shen Qingzhu flying backward!
The orange-red lion stood up angrily, glaring at Shen Qingzhu with bared teeth.
"You brat, you actually tried to steal my treasure while I was sleeping!"
Are you tired of living?
Seeing that she had already alerted the lions guarding the place, Shen Qingzhu realized that stealth was no longer an option, so she had to resort to robbing openly!
hum! ! !
Shen Qingzhu's Spear of Destiny trembled, unleashing a fierce spearhead that swept with earth-shattering power as it pierced the lion!
The lion roared, and the surging sound waves formed an incredibly solid barrier in front of it, blocking Shen Qingzhu's attack!
"Trying to rob us outright after failing to steal us? Damn humans!!!"
The lion let out a furious roar, its aura rising steadily. Its massive claws shattered the void, sweeping towards Shen Qingzhu with terrifying power!
Shen Qingzhu quickly raised the Spear of Destiny in her hand to defend against the lion's powerful blow!
Holding the spear of fate, Shen Qingzhu thrust hard, deflecting the lion's attack, and the lion's massive body retreated step by step!
"Good boy!"
The lion kept pawing the ground, and flames of anger surged from its body, forming sharp swords that appeared near its mane!
"Roar!!!"
With a deafening roar, the lion's mane shattered and flew towards Shen Qingzhu with earth-shattering power!
Shen Qingzhu gripped the Spear of Destiny tightly, spinning the blood-red spear like a windmill to block the rain of swords!
A terrifying rain of swords, carrying the power of fury, blasted Shen Qingzhu backward repeatedly!
Shen Qingzhu gripped the Spear of Destiny tightly in her hand, deflecting a spearhead imbued with the laws of destiny and shattering the rain of swords!
As their interactions deepened, Shen Qingzhu figured out the symbolism of this lion.
One of the seven deadly sins: Wrath.
Shen Qingzhu shook her arm, which was still aching from the impact, and frowned as she looked at the enraged lion.
I'm not like Gu Tianchen, that reckless man who can't control his anger. How can this lion be so powerful?
I have a very good temper, so it's impossible for me to give birth to such a fierce lion. Does this lion not represent rage?
Shen Qingzhu doubted whether the inner demon symbol was wrong, but she never doubted her own temper...
The lion opened its blood-red maw at Shen Qingzhu and spat out balls of blazing fire!
Shen Qingzhu threw the Spear of Destiny in his hand, which transformed into a blood-red beam of light flowing with the laws of destiny, forcefully piercing through several fireballs flying towards him in the void!
The spear of fate, its power undiminished, continued to pierce the lion with its sharp, sweeping edge!
The lion roared, and afterimages appeared on its massive body, coalescing into a barrier to block the attack of the Spear of Destiny!
"Hey, I have such a bad temper!"
Seeing that her attack was blocked by the enraged lion again, the furious Shen Qingzhu could no longer bear it. She flew over and grabbed the Spear of Destiny, unleashing a barrage of attacks!
boom! boom! boom!
The laws of fate and the laws of power clashed violently, unleashing a surging shockwave of their combined power!
Shen Qingzhu grew angrier and more enraged as she fought, only to discover that the lion opposite her was also becoming increasingly powerful!
Exhausted to the point of near death, Shen Qingzhu finally realized something was wrong.
The angrier you are, the stronger this lion becomes!
Violence won't work; we must address the root of our inner demons.
Shen Qingzhu put away the Spear of Destiny, slowly sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to silently recite the Taoist calming mantra that Fatty had once taught him.
The enraged lion roared, creating surging sound waves that attempted to disturb Shen Qingzhu's mind.
Unexpectedly, Shen Qingzhu remained calm and composed, her mind as still as water, and she couldn't stir up the slightest ripple.
The enraged lion stretched out its enormous paw and slammed it down on Shen Qingzhu!
Boom! ! !
A yin-yang symbol rippled out from Shen Qingzhu's body, causing the lion to stagger backward!
Seeing that Shen Qingzhu remained unmoved, the lion roared and continued to provoke her.
"Hey kid, come on!"
"Weren't you being pretty arrogant just now?"
"Don't be a coward! What kind of skill is it to lie on the ground like a turtle hiding in the ground?!"
"Come and hit me! Come and hit me!"
The enraged lion circled around Shen Qingzhu in a sly manner, constantly provoking her, and even offering its head to Shen Qingzhu so she could hit it.
No matter how the enraged lion provoked her, Shen Qingzhu remained unmoved, silently reciting the calming mantra.
"what……"
"what!!!"
"Stop reading, stop reading..."
"Please, please stop reading!"
The lion clutched its throbbing head and rolled around on the ground, kicking up clouds of dust!
As Shen Qingzhu continued to silently recite the calming mantra, creating yin-yang Tai Chi diagrams, the lion's form grew smaller and smaller...
"Meow~"
In the end, the enraged lion transformed into an adorable little orange cat, running towards Shen Qingzhu and rubbing against his trouser leg, rolling around on the ground, acting cute and charming.
Shen Qingzhu smiled and patted the little orange cat's head. Led by the little orange cat, she walked to the throne and grasped the hilt of the Angelic Holy Sword with both hands.
hum! ! !
A golden sword light swept out, and Shen Qingzhu pulled the Angelic Holy Sword from the throne, its dazzling light constantly flowing!
The little orange cat ran happily around Shen Qingzhu's feet, eventually turning into specks of golden light and disappearing...
After calming his rage, Shen Qingzhu gripped the Spear of Destiny in one hand and the Holy Sword of Angels in the other, and flew towards the next location!
……
Shen Qingzhu landed in front of a manor and was attracted by the fragrance that filled the air.
"Gurgle~"
After hitting the ground for so long, Shen Qingzhu felt her stomach start to rumble...
As human beings, we can never resist the temptation of delicious food.
Shen Qingzhu forced herself to endure the hunger in her stomach and walked into the manor...
The manor is not large, but the interior is very cozy, and the fragrance in the air is refreshing.
A middle-aged man with a large head and thick neck, who looked either a tycoon or a cook, greeted Shen Qingzhu with a simple and honest smile.
"Hey bro, are you hungry?"
"Come and try my cooking."
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand, revealing a table laden with a dazzling array of delicious dishes, emitting an enticing aroma...
Shen Qingzhu swallowed hard, quickly stepped forward, grabbed a golden, crispy pig's trotter, and was about to put it in her mouth...
The middle-aged man revealed a barely perceptible sinister smile...
