I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

’Jiang Wanzhao has a way to remove the mark from Impermanence?’

’She *is* a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, after all. It wouldn’t be surprising if she had some special methods.’

”Come over as soon as you can. If you wait too long, I won’t be able to do anything!” Jiang Wanzhao urged him again.

Zou Feng thought about it and decided it would be better not to remove the mark. He replied decisively, ”Senior Sister Jiang, I want to keep this mark. I can use it as bait!”

Since Zou Feng had already been tasked with clearing out the Tribulation Cultivators who had infiltrated the defense lines, Jiang Wanzhao immediately understood what he meant.

”Be careful. Don’t capsize in a gutter!” Jiang Wanzhao warned, but didn’t press the issue further.

Just as he finished communicating with Jiang Wanzhao, Zhao Feixiong had already changed his clothes and even used a cleansing Skill to clean himself up in record time.

”Junior Brother Zou, let’s go! Time for the banquet!”

The banquet Zhao Feixiong mentioned was to celebrate the successful repulsion of a large-scale invasion by the Tribulation Cultivators.

Although two defensive lines had been breached, the Tribulation Cultivators had suffered greater losses. It was a reason to celebrate and boost morale.

And for Zhao Feixiong, it was also another chance to see Luo Zhenzhen.

Zou Feng initially had no desire to attend this so-called victory banquet. However, as the hero who had saved a defensive line, not showing up would be a huge slap in the face to the hosts.

’Whatever. I’ll just go and make an appearance. It won’t be too late to go hunting afterward.’

The two of them wasted no more time and quickly headed to the banquet hall.

Along the way, they happened to meet up with Su Qingyu, who was also heading to the banquet.

Zhao Feixiong hadn’t really noticed Su Qingyu before.

Now, seeing how close Su Qingyu seemed to be with Zou Feng, the cheerful Zhao Feixiong couldn’t help but tease, ”No wonder Junior Brother Zou isn’t interested in the Ninth Princess. It’s because you already have such a fine match! When will I get to drink at your wedding?”

Before Zou Feng could explain, Su Qingyu cut in, ”Brother Zhao, you’ve misunderstood. Zou Feng and I are not Dao Companions.”

”Not Dao Companions?” Zhao Feixiong didn’t register it at first, and the smile on his face slowly turned awkward.

Zou Feng interjected, ”Close Fellow Daoists. We’re close Fellow Daoists. The mutual appreciation between Poison Cultivators!”

This time Zhao Feixiong understood. He nodded and said, ”Oh, I see!”

After a few more lines of awkward small talk, the three of them arrived at the banquet hall.

Finding a stray lock of hair annoying, Zou Feng unconsciously used his Hair Gel Hand and slicked his hair back up again.

’Anyway, I don’t have to go on blind dates anymore. Zhao Feixiong is willing to be the Dragon Knight, and Luo Gang is quite satisfied with this son-in-law. There’s no need for me to pretend to be a makeup-wearing cultivator anymore.’

However, Zou Feng had underestimated his own charm.

With that casual flick of his Hair Gel Hand, he instantly swept many of the Female Cultivators in the hall off their feet.

At least a dozen Female Cultivators stared at him nonstop, their eyes filled with admiration.

His looks and aura were only part of the reason for this exaggerated effect. The main cause was Zou Feng’s recent heroic achievement of turning the tide of battle.

He was, in the truest sense, handsome and powerful, brimming with potential, and had a bright future ahead of him.

And these Female Cultivators were not deterred by the presence of Su Qingyu at his side.

After all, everyone knew that Zou Feng was an incorrigible lecher who was obsessed with dual cultivation. Taking on a few more Dao Companions should be no problem for him.

Zou Feng, however, didn’t care about these gazes. In fact, ever since he had started to make a name for himself in the Outer Sect of the Pinnacle Celestial Immortal Sect, he had grown used to such stares.

It was the Dragon King of Yu Long Lake, Luo Gang, and Yu Lingxiao who seemed to be seeing him in a new light, their gazes now fixed on him as well.

In fact, Luo Gang’s face showed a hint of displeasure.

It seemed he was annoyed that Zou Feng had clearly been deliberately hiding his true abilities before.

After taking his seat, Zou Feng just hoped the banquet would end quickly.

A moment later, Yu Lingxiao started with some pleasantries before encouraging the cultivators who had distinguished themselves in the recent battle, giving special mention to Zou Feng.

She looked at Zou Feng with such gratification that it was as if he was her own cherished subordinate, not one of Jiang Wanzhao’s.

Zou Feng had never paid much attention to Yu Lingxiao before.

The woman had the appearance of a beautiful, mature lady whose charm had not faded with time. Strictly speaking, her looks weren’t exceptional, but she exuded a powerful, mature allure.

She was the same type as Tian Yun.

After Yu Lingxiao finished speaking, the banquet officially began.

Of course, everyone in this hall was a key member of the Celestial Hearing Tower. Many of them, like Zou Feng, would later be heading out to hunt the Tribulation Cultivators who had slipped through.

Therefore, the ingredients used for this meal were all high-grade Spiritual Food, far exceeding the usual standards.

But the food was so good that the thought of heading into a life-or-death battle right after made it feel a bit like a final meal...

Everyone had just started eating when Luo Zhenzhen finally arrived, fashionably late.

Zhao Feixiong had been waiting for her, and he immediately went to greet her.

She must have already spoken with her father. Luo Zhenzhen had compromised on the matter of the marriage alliance, so she now took the initiative to greet Zhao Feixiong.

But as she walked gracefully forward, her gaze shifted subtly toward Zou Feng. After a brief moment of surprise, a look of resentment appeared on her face.

Zou Feng keenly sensed this and immediately furrowed his brow.

’What’s with this woman?’

’Can we not make this so melodramatic? I thought you were against the arranged date?’

’Besides, things are pretty much settled with Zhao Feixiong now.’

’And now, just because I slicked my hair back and fought well against the Tribulation Cultivators, you’re having regrets?’

’This Luo Zhenzhen... she might just be a gold digger...’

Zou Feng suddenly felt that Zhao Feixiong was getting a raw deal.

Seeing through it but not saying anything, Zou Feng pretended he hadn’t noticed and focused on his food.

”Didn’t you say the Ninth Princess wasn’t interested in you?” Su Qingyu, who was beside him, had clearly also noticed the unusual look Luo Zhenzhen had just given Zou Feng.
