《Keyboard Immortal》Chapter 689: Why Not?
Advertisement
“What is going on?” Chu Youzhao’s eyes widened. King Qi’s heir was about to use his ultimate move, and it looked like her brother-in-law was on the brink of defeat. Then, at the last second, it was instead the young heir who was hacked by lightning instead?
Murong Qinghe was also stupefied. Everything that happened left her utterly shocked. She subconsciously looked around her. “Was there anyone that secretly helped him?”
She saw that the ball of water fly out from the side. Was there a water element expert hiding nearby?
The driver with the missing tooth also looked around with his shocked eyes. His expression was a bit confused.
Zu An walked up to the young heir and looked at his twitching body. He sighed. It was worth learning physics and chemistry after all.
When he saw his opponent surge with electricity all around him earlier, he already gathered a pool of water from the nearby family ponds, vats and other vessels. He was waiting for a chance to use this giant ball of water.
He didn’t awaken a water element, so he couldn’t make water element out of thin air and do tricks with it. All he could do was use Blue Mallard to move the water.
Zu An completely shut down his opponent during his most confident moment. He was going to make this young and arrogant heir understand that even the world of cultivation had to follow the laws of physics.
“Weren’t you about to punish me with lightning? Why aren’t you coming at me anymore?” Zu An asked in ridicule when he saw the scorched black, steaming body.
King Qi’s heir moved his fingers, as if he was trying to summon lightning, but only a bit of blue electricity flew about. Then, his body trembled from paralysis.
“Oh? Were you trying to shock me?” Zu An laughed when he saw this. He put one foot on his chest and said, “Just now, who was the one that said that everything is meaningless before absolute strength?”
When had King Qi’s heir ever had his chest stepped on? He struggled frantically, but his entire body was numb from electricity. What was to be intense struggling ended up being some meaningless twitching.
You have successfully trolled Zhao Zhi for +999 +999 +999…
If it wasn’t because he was a lightning element cultivator, his entire body would’ve already been cooked through from the lightning.
The fact that he was still alive was already quite the miracle in itself. However, the price was that he might have to rest up for several months before he can make a full recovery.

Zu An lowered his head and took a look. He couldn’t hold back a chuckle. This young heir’s hair that was originally straight and elegant was now standing up, and all of his extravagant clothes had been blasted to ashes. It was still barely holding together a moment ago, but all of the scorched clothes exploded when he moved just a little bit, revealing his lightning charred body underneath.
“Ah!”
Murong Qinghe and Chu Youzhao jumped in fright. They both quickly turned around, their hearts pounding.
Murong Qinghe gave the lover next to her a look of surprise. I’m embarrassed because I’m a girl, but what are you so startled for?
Chu Youzhao’s face was completely red. She was actually a bit confused. The question she was wondering was, why did Zhao Zhi and her brother-in-law’s look so different?
It’s so small…
Who is the weird one?
Zu An lowered his head and looked at the young heir’s groin. A look of disdain flashed past his face. “That’s it?”
But with so many young ladies nearby, he couldn’t just pull out his right now. He moved the tip of his sword over and circled around it. “It’s already so burnt. Should I help you get rid of it?”
King Qi’s heir was so scared he felt his soul leave his body. He could still slowly recover from his current injuries, but if this thing was cut off, then it really would be hard to reconnect!
There really would be no going back at that point.
He was quite the arrogant person, but his tone immediately softened considerably. “It is a bit burnt right now. But please save the energy, it can still be used.”
Zu An laughed. “It already looks like this, but you still want to use it? It’ll be amazing if you can still pee out of it.”
King Qi’s heir forced out an apologetic smile, but rage was surging endlessly within him. I will definitely chop your corpse to ten thousand pieces in the future!
You have successfully trolled Zhao Zhi for +1024 +1024 +1024…
Zu An’s expression grew cold when he saw the incoming Rage points. “Could it be that you’re cursing me inside right now?”
“No… I’m not…” The young heir’s expression changed. He wanted to say some nice words to ease the mood. However, with his status, he was always the one being praised ever since he was little, when had he ever done it to anyone else? He couldn’t even do it properly.

“Oh, I suddenly remembered something.” Zu An looked like he suddenly realized something. “You told me before that I should break my own arms and legs and bow down in apology, right?”
“You heard wrong, that’s not what I meant.” King Qi’s heir frantically explained. He thought to himself that right now, he had to make it through this trial no matter what. Once King Qi manor’s men received the news and rushed over to save him, then he would make sure to repay this guy a hundred times over!
“Then are you saying that I’m deaf?” Zu An said coldly.
King Qi’s heir: “......”
He really couldn’t get used to how this guy’s mind worked. But he also realized by now that he was doing this on purpose. He was going to be ridiculed no matter how he replied.
As such, he took a deep breath. After his momentary alarm passed, he calmed down. “There’s no point in being pretentious here. Do you really dare to hurt me? I am King Qi’s oldest son, as well as the court’s Reserve Diary Officer. If I am injured in the slightest, then you will suffer ten times, no, hundred times the revenge.”
Zu An frowned. “Your identity is indeed special. Your father in particular is a problem.”
A look of mockery and disdain appeared on the young heir’s face. “Correct. Looks like you still have a clear understanding of the situation. I can overlook today’s matter and just let it pass.”
But inside, he sneered. Overlook? No way!
Once he returned to King Qi’s manor, he would make sure this fella understood what it meant to wish he was dead rather than alive.
Zu An sighed. “That dad of yours is indeed a problem, but I’ve never been someone who listened to threats. I don’t have that great of a temper, you know? Why did you just have to provoke me?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stomped down on his knees. A large crack noise immediately sounded.
Chu Youzhao and Murong Qinghe were stupefied. This fella actually dared to do this to King Qi’s heir? Do you know what the consequences of doing this are?
Chu Youzhao snapped out of her initial happiness regarding her brother-in-law’s comeback. Her heart was filled with worry.
The driver with the missing tooth frowned. He couldn’t help but say, “This kid is too reckless. He has now completely offended King Qi. I fear that no one can save him now.”
The carriage became silent. No one knew what the madam inside was thinking.
“Ahh!!!!” Zhao Zhi’s bitter screams filled this entire street. He experienced tremendous pain and anger. “You actually dare to hurt me! You dare?!!”
You have successfully trolled Zhao Zhi for +1024 +1024 +1024…
Other than when the other party circled his crotch, he didn’t actually feel much panic. After all, he knew that the other party wouldn’t actually dare. However, the intense pain from his knees made him begin to doubt life. Is this guy really not scared of my father at all? Is he fucking stupid?!
Zu An’s lips twitched. “Did your brain get fried from the lightning too? Didn’t I already hurt you? You are still asking if I dare or not? Since you seem quite confused, then let me help make it a bit more clear for you.”
His foot stomped down on his other knee.
“Stop!” Murong Qinghe was alarmed when she saw this. She quickly ran over to stop Zu An.
Zu An shot her a cold look. “Did you not get beaten enough yet last time?”
Murong Qinghe took a few steps back out of guilt. When she remembered how this man grabbed her spear, that strange warm feeling that mysteriously filled her body, she froze up. She did not want to experience something so embarrassing again.
However, when she remembered King Qi’s relationship to the Murong clan, she still mustered the courage to say, “You cannot hurt him.”
“Why not?” Zu An said indifferently.
Murong Qinghe bit her soft lips and said, “Because he is King Qi’s heir. His status is special. Once something happens to him, the entire capital will become chaotic. Isn’t this reason enough?”
“That’s not enough!” Zu An was expressionless. He was about to stomp down again, but he suddenly had a bad feeling. He turned towards the street.
He saw an elder appear from the end of the street, his entire head covered in silver strands of hair, yet there were no wrinkles on his face. As he slowly walked over, he looked like he was one with the world. He clearly didn’t take many steps, yet he already reappeared several zhang from the two of them. “I advise you to move that filthy foot of yours.”

Twisted Skies
After his master's death, Thurain leaves his rural home behind and travels to Heliana, the cramped city founded on the scientific progress of cultivation. Under a fake name, he aims to enter the Elemental Path Sect, the place of his master's death, to find both his killers, and closure. However, surrounded by the strange and horrible wonders of Heliana and its mixture of heroes and villains, his master's death is not the only murder he may have to solve. --- First attempt at a xianxia novel from me. To shake things up from the usual formula, the setting is more steam-punk than you might expect, and there are elements of murder mystery mixed in with the standard formula (though I'm not entirely sure yet how far to go with it.) I wrote this a while ago for NaNoWriMo, only posting it now for various reasons. Enjoy. Also, cover is highly temporary. I'll probably replace it with something nicer eventually.
