Chapter 497 - Meeting the Palace Master

Gu Zuo covered his neck, and was silently embarrassed.

So, big brother, your nature has become like this... Then, how will the other incarnations affect big brother?

All of a sudden, he had a somewhat uneasy premonition.

Gongyi Tianheng’s asura incarnation liked to be intimate with Gu Zuo. Even if the content of their conversations was normal, the incarnation still wanted to kiss and touch him.

Without realizing it, a hand was placed on that unmentionable part. Moreover, the process was done wordlessly and in an extremely natural manner, making it difficult for Gu Zuo to react. But once he did, his face immediately blushed and his ears turned scarlet. He felt weak all over from being teased.

Fortunately, the present asura incarnation brought back information that Tianheng’s main body was safe and steadily improving. Moreover, his consciousness returned with the incarnation. In fact, it was as though Tianheng was right beside Gu Zuo. Besides the scandalous way they interacted with one another, Gu Zuo still regained his sense of security and returned to the accommodating and well-behaved person he once was.

Of course, there were also disadvantages...

For example, while Gu Zuo refined medicine, the asura incarnation would embrace him from behind. Whenever the mood arose, the incarnation would lick along his neck, suckle on his earlobes, and kiss the side of his face... This easily caused Gu Zuo’s hands to tremble.

Thankfully, Gu Zuo’s medicine refining skills were proficient enough to smoothly overcome these obstacles. Otherwise, if an ordinary pharmacist encountered this kind of situation, the furnace would’ve definitely blown up.

Once night fell, Gu Zuo and the asura incarnation proceeded towards the Blood Transformation Palace Hall.

— Because the asura incarnation’s features were too strange, and a man wearing black robes seemed somewhat mysterious, it wouldn’t have been good to seek an audience with the palace master in broad daylight. Therefore, it could be covered up a little bit if they went at night.

After announcing their arrival, the two met the Blood Transformation Palace Master without any issues. At the same time, the palace master saw the current appearance of his dear apprentice, which had undergone huge changes.

Peculiar blood patterns, strange blood-red hair, unusual blood-red eyes...and lips that were a shade too scarlet.

The facial features and countenance were clearly still that of Gongyi Tianheng, but the qi emissions emanating from his body carried extremely bizarre implications. Every time his eyes flickered, there seemed to be an eruption of a terrifying blood fiend’s aura.

He looked like a demon.

Although, it went without saying that many people in the Blood Transformation Palace Hall cultivated with blood. Compared to the other nine palace halls, they didn’t particularly seem like good people. It was just that, because they only used beast blood and not human blood, their qi emissions remained pure. Fortunately, while the present Tianheng was a bit more malevolent, he didn’t feel evil at all.

Thus, the Blood Transformation Palace Master’s first feeling was that, after his apprentice was beaten this time, something went wrong with his cultivation.

Normally, those who cultivated the blood arts would only show abnormalities when actively using their powers. Ordinarily, they were still quite normal.

However, the palace master breathed a sigh of relief: “Apprentice, it’s good that you’ve come back.”

The asura incarnation paid his respects: “Master has been worried.”

While he spoke, the hint of a smiling expression on his lips carried a soul-stirring feeling.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master paused: “Apprentice, this is—”

Originally, his apprentice’s appearance was extraordinary. Merely, in the past, his graceful demeanor made people pay more attention to his temperament rather than his face, so others didn’t exclaim in admiration as often. But with these changes now, his whole temperament was racing towards the other direction. On the contrary, the face was enhanced, making it even more difficult for others to look directly at him... By then, it was hard say whether it would cause any trouble.

It was just that, as far as men were concerned, their attraction shouldn’t be based on one’s face or figure. As a teacher, it also wasn’t good for the Blood Transformation Palace Master to point this out too bluntly.

Contrary to what one might’ve expected, Gu Zuo noticed the palace master’s conflicted look, and felt that the words, “Apprentice, restrain yourself. Don’t flaunt your hormones so much.” were practically written across his face. Gu Zuo helplessly shook his head, and got rid of this way of thinking — Ever since big brother returned as an asura incarnation, he couldn’t help but feel embarrassed from time to time.

But this wasn’t the important point.

Gu Zuo glanced at the asura incarnation, who softly laughed: “Reporting to master. This disciple has now returned as an incarnation. Therefore, it’s a little different from my main body. I hope master can forgive me.”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master was surprised: “Incarnation?”

The asura incarnation spoke in a caring tone, and uttered a few words: “Asura incarnation.”

Following that, it was Gu Zuo who took over the conversation — If big brother was allowed to continue conveying such strange expressions, he was really worried that the palace master, who actually had a bad temper, would respond with an enormous palm slap... Okay, maybe he was overthinking things again.

Gu Zuo said: “I won’t hide it from the palace master. In fact, big brother’s qi oceans aren’t the same as that of ordinary people. It’s probably a type of special constitution. As a result, big brother opened up six qi oceans when he was at the Immortal Realm.”

With regards to the Tiandu Body, the two concealed this matter very deeply. When all was said and done, the Tiandu Body was classified as a legendary and remarkable physique that suffered the envy of heaven. If he hadn’t been nursed every day whenever he cultivated, he would’ve died prematurely long ago. And at the present time, the two had only made some progress in developing the Tiandu Body. Thus, they were very cautious.

Yet, ever since they joined the Blood Transformation Palace Hall, the palace master had been clearly watching over the two of them. After Tianheng encountered a calamity, not only did the palace master personally go out to rescue Tianheng, he also didn’t give up searching once his apprentice was knocked into a void seam. What’s more, besides the subordinates who couldn’t extricate themselves from missions, the palace master sent all of his battle slaves to conduct long-term and in-depth searches in every city.

A teacher’s kindness was extremely deep. The two had gained an understanding of the palace master’s natural disposition over a long period of close contact, and developed a sense of trust.

Of course, Gu Zuo had a system. And there was an unfathomable inheritance within the system. These were still their deepest secrets. As for the Tiandu Body, a small portion could be explained.

After explaining, they could also obtain some guidance from the palace master.

Hence, Gu Zuo spoke quickly and clearly. He swiftly told the Blood Transformation Palace Master about how the six sets of bone pearls formed six qi oceans, how each of the six qi oceans could produce an incarnation, and how every qi ocean possessed a special power. Naturally, the palace master similarly learned that Tianheng’s main body found an opportunity in the void and that it was the incarnation who had left for this place.

This talk took a little longer than an hour. Once the palace master finished listening, he looked at Gu Zuo with an even kinder gaze: “Ah Zuo has truly worked hard helping Tianheng until now.”

At this point, he understood why Gu Zuo suddenly erupted after his apprentice disappeared. He naturally remembered that Gu Zuo and Tianheng had been friends for many years, but after hearing everything, he realized that their friendship was deeper than he thought.

All of a sudden, Tianheng pulled Gu Zuo into his arms and peppered kisses across his cheek. His voice was touching and emotional: “Ah Zuo has indeed work hard over the years.”

The Blood Transformation Palace Master: “...”

It seemed that this wasn’t just a deep friendship?

Gu Zuo’s face reddened, and his mood almost collapsed!

He only knew that big brother’s current temperament had changed a little, but overall, it seemed as if Tianheng just liked to tease him a bit more. Why was big brother doing this so suddenly right now?

Simply put, he was caught off guard, and was pulled out of the closet in front of the palace master... Ah, was he going to be slapped to death by the palace master?!

Gu Zuo felt incredibly nervous in his heart.

The asura incarnation was still wearing a tender smile, but in the gaze the incarnation used to look at Gu Zuo, the bloody light threatened to overflow. It was like drops of blood were about to leak out.

The Blood Transformation Palace Master had lived for such a long time, and he could see Gu Zuo’s apprehensive mood at the moment. His eyes softened slightly, and peered at the asura incarnation: “What does this apprentice mean?”

The asura incarnation answered in a soft voice: “This disciple wishes to become partners with Ah Zuo. Never to part in life or in death.”

When Gu Zuo heard his dear big brother’s frank confession, his worried eyes suddenly turned resolute and firm. Summoning his courage, he looked at the palace master: “I, I d-do, too!”

No good! He was still very nervous!

The Blood Transformation Palace Master revealed a smiling expression: “As it turns out, you two have an affinity for one another. Since it’s like this, I won’t oppose it as your teacher. In this world, although there are more unions between men and women, signifying the blending of yin and yang, as this master’s apprentice, you can do whatever you want. In any case, you just prefer men. If anyone dares to raise objections, they’ll be blocked by me.”

As he spoke, his imposing aura was awe-inspiring, which conferred a type of inviolable heroic spirit.

Gu Zuo’s chest felt warm.

The asura incarnation spoke again: “It’s not that I prefer men... This disciple only loves Ah Zuo.”

Suddenly, Gu Zuo’s heart jumped.

Meanwhile, the palace master broke into laughter: “Of course, there’s nothing wrong with that.”

The asura incarnation’s smile deepened. It was as if a bright and beautiful bloody light was surfacing. His complexion bloomed even more. With a single look, people’s breaths would be taken away.

The palace master: “...”

Whenever this apprentice showed his incarnation, it was better that he didn’t reveal any joyful expressions.

After coming out of the closet, Gu Zuo saw that he and big brother had received such strong support from the Blood Transformation Palace Master, one of their elders. Naturally, he was in a good mood, but he still had one worry. He needed to quickly get an answer from the palace master.

As a result, Gu Zuo unabashedly asked: “Palace master, you might’ve not noticed it just now, but even if you look carefully, can you tell that big brother is formed through the accumulation of internal qi?”

With no internal organs or bones, the asura incarnation was entirely produced from the reddish-black energy within one of Tianheng’s qi oceans. Although they had similar appearances, it wasn’t a problem to say that he was the transformation of a special ability.

At this moment, what he wanted to know was whether big brother could masquerade as this incarnation, and walk in front of outsiders without them detecting the abnormalities inside his body...
