Chapter 138 - 118: The Life of Widowhood
"You’ve entered the Spring and Autumn Registry?"
The one-armed woman asked softly.
"Indeed. In a few days, when the new Supervisor of the Eastern Factory arrives, it will be time."
Chen Yi returned to his residence but did not go to the main hall. Instead, he turned toward the guest room to recount the recent events to Zhou Yitang.
Since returning from the underground palace, Zhou Yitang had stayed in his home temporarily to recover from her injuries.
After contemplating for a moment, Zhou Yitang said:
"I know you carry a strange poison. I had thought you would sever the Three Corpses and ascend to demand accountability. But..."
Chen Yi smiled and added for her:
"But you didn’t expect that I couldn’t sever the Three Corpses, and now my cultivation level has plummeted, making it impossible to demand anything."
Currently, Zhou Yitang was still recovering, trying to mend both bodily and soul injuries from the loss of her intact Magic Sword. Right now, her cultivation level was no higher than Fourth Rank, and even after healing completely, she would barely reach Third Rank, no more than Second Rank at best.
"Exactly."
