Chapter 146: Your days are numbered.
Opening his eyes, the first thing Zhang Tianmu noticed was the filter that turned everything within sight green. That was enough for him to understand his current situation, but instead of calming him down it unleashed his rage in the form of Soul Pressure.
The disciples outside were alerted of his waking. In a matter of seconds the medical pod he was floating in was drained of the green healing liquid and scalding water rained from above cleansing his body from anything that stuck to it.
Steam surrounded his chiselled body when he stepped out of the machine. Ten maidens rushed over and began wiping him from top to bottom then began dressing him up and styling his hair. Once he was back in his proper Priest attire, Zhang Tianmu finally retracted his pressure, and though none of the servants showed it they were all relieved that nothing gruesome happened so far.
"Well look who’s finally up!" That relief went away when a familiar voice came from the entrance. "Good morning, sleeping beauty. Thought you would need a kiss to get up."
His energetic demeanor contrasted the wrinkles on his face and the white covering his head, and despite wearing the red hood of a disciple, he was talking to a Priest like they had the same standing.
The Soul Pressure returned and the servants knelt and lowered their heads, praying that nothing bad will happen to them.
"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed."
"I’m not in the mood for your banter, Barrow." Said Zhang Tianmu. "State your business and leave."
"No can do." Clyde shook his head and wagged a finger. "I came to take you. His holiness is waiting."
The pressure instantly halted. Zhang Tianmu’ eyes were wide like saucers and fear brought sweat to his forehead. Gritting his teeth, he glared at the old man whose expression remained amiable, though the Priest only felt mockery when directed at him.
Zhang Tianmu wanted nothing more than to get him out of his sight and thus he left the medical bay right away. Unfortunately for him, the annoying geezer followed right behind him, uncaring about his foul mood.
