I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

Chapter 369: Chapter 243: Battle to Subdue the Dragon

Uncharacteristically, there were no Guards patrolling around Jinluan Hall. This was clearly Gongsun Jinghong’s doing.

To be honest, while Zou Feng was a little surprised by the battlefield Gongsun Jinghong had chosen, finding it stimulating, he didn’t feel much pressure.

’After becoming a True Qi Realm Martial Artist, the Emperor of Great Yan and all that just isn’t a big deal to me anymore.’

’Especially since the current Emperor of Great Yan was likely to fall in a pinnacle duel soon enough...’

He glanced back again in the direction of the Celestial Sacrifice Platform.

The battle was still ongoing, but it seemed Su Qingyu and Gongsun Xiang were still in the probing stage, not yet trading their real Big Moves.

’Well then, it’s time to face my own battle.’

Of course, before stepping into Jinluan Hall, Zou Feng didn’t forget to check the List of Gods.

Gongsun Jinghong’s name had yet to appear on it.

’But that doesn’t mean I can fight with peace of mind later. This woman, Gongsun Jinghong, her craziness is plain to see. If she gets carried away in the heat of the moment, there’s no telling if she’ll spontaneously pull some crazy stunt that could be dangerous to me. So, I can’t let my guard down just because her name isn’t on the List of Gods right now.’

With this in mind, Zou Feng stepped into Jinluan Hall.

He looked up and saw Gongsun Jinghong sitting on the Throne, dressed in full regalia, waiting for him.

Zou Feng wasn’t at all surprised that Gongsun Jinghong would choose to meet him on the Throne.

’After all, since she chose Jinluan Hall, where else would she mess around if not on the Throne?’

The problem was, he hadn’t expected Gongsun Jinghong’s current attire...

The woman was actually wearing a custom-tailored Dragon Robe, complete with a Crown on her head.

She sat upon the Throne, her imperious gaze sweeping across the hall, as if she were truly a newly enthroned Empress awaiting the homage of her court.

”Come up here!”

Gongsun Jinghong beckoned to Zou Feng.

For Zou Feng, this was clearly the most stimulating cosplay imaginable.

Besides, if Gongsun Xiang was really taken out by Su Qingyu, with Gongsun Jinghong’s Talent, she might actually stand out from the Great Yan Royal Family and ascend the throne as Empress.

After all, when the Great Yan Royal Family chose a successor, they didn’t care about legitimate heirs or lines of succession. They only cared if one’s strength could dominate the Royal Family.

Hearing this, Zou Feng immediately took two steps forward and stood before Gongsun Jinghong.

He had to admit, while Gongsun Jinghong had always been beautiful, Zou Feng had never felt his heart stir for her before.

But with her dressed in the garb of an Empress, the effect was instantly different. There was no reason for his heart not to flutter.

However, Zou Feng knew that Gongsun Jinghong had likely chosen this ”battlefield” for reasons beyond just rebellion and excitement.

”As a member of the Royal Family, for you to choose this place, Commandery Princess... isn’t it a bit...” Zou Feng asked tentatively.

Gongsun Jinghong didn’t answer his question, instead asking, ”What did you call me?”

Zou Feng froze for a moment, then immediately understood. ”Your Majesty?”

Gongsun Jinghong gave a charming smile and nodded in satisfaction. ”Does my dear minister find this location improper?”

’So she’s really getting into character, huh?’

”Rest assured, no one will disturb us before a winner is decided over there with Gongsun Xiang,” Gongsun Jinghong continued. ”I’m sure you understand that in this battle between Su Qingyu and Gongsun Xiang, the fortune they each carry is also a great source of power.”

”And once Gongsun Xiang is defeated, although the entire Royal Family’s fortune will suffer a heavy blow, it won’t be completely scattered and lost.”

”So, my dear minister, care to guess who that fortune will be bestowed upon after he is defeated?”

As soon as she said this, Zou Feng could roughly guess what Gongsun Jinghong was scheming.

Even if Gongsun Xiang was defeated, Gongsun Jinghong wasn’t currently the strongest expert in the Royal Family. Theoretically, she shouldn’t be the one to take this position.

However, Gongsun Jinghong’s Talent had long been acknowledged as the greatest among the younger generation of the Royal Family.

If she could receive the blessing of that fortune, coupled with the boost from the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill, then Gongsun Jinghong might truly be able to break through to the First Grade Realm in one fell swoop!

In that case, she would become the most powerful candidate for succession in the Royal Family.

’So Gongsun Jinghong hadn’t worn this Dragon Robe just for the thrill of it. She had planned this long ago; this position was meant for her to take.’

’But is the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill really that powerful?’

”My dear minister, surely I don’t need to teach you what to do next, do I?” Gongsun Jinghong urged.

Because they were so close, Zou Feng could see that beneath the Dragon Robe, Gongsun Jinghong had returned to her most primal state.

The woman had already begun to circulate the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill. This caused his own Kan and Li Skill to activate automatically, his True Qi beginning to gather and swell in his Dantian.

In the past, when Zou Feng practiced the Kan and Li Skill, although Tian Yun and Bian Yixia had benefited greatly, he himself had not gained much from it.

Zou Feng knew very well that this was because he had never practiced the Skill with Gongsun Jinghong, its true target.

Yet now, before they had even officially begun, the True Qi in his body was stirred on its own, creating a wondrous resonance with Gongsun Jinghong’s True Qi.

It was as if their two streams of True Qi were from the same source, destined to undergo a transformation once they converged again.

Even without their True Qi intermingling, just from this state of resonance alone, Zou Feng could tell that the effect was several times better than cultivating with Spiritual Liquid.

Zou Feng was astonished. He knew the Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill was profound, but he never expected it to have such a miraculous effect.

Seeming to notice the surprise in Zou Feng’s eyes, Gongsun Jinghong said at the perfect moment, ”Don’t you understand yet? The Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill, strictly speaking, isn’t a form of Martial Arts.”

”It should be called... a Dao Skill, an Immortal Technique!”
