In the palace.
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable said, “The Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder are both veteran Saints. Dealing with that ox demon from the demon race should not be a problem for them.”
“Su Wuming is the second divine son of our sect, at the peak of the Tongshen realm. Killing that old Taoist priest and capturing Ye Changsheng would be very simple for him.”
“Ye Changsheng, this time you will not escape.”
When the Infinite Heavenly Venerable spoke to this point, he suddenly remembered that Ye Changsheng possessed so many treasures on his body. For a moment, he felt somewhat uneasy and softly called out.
“Blood Slave!”
Instantly, a mass of deep crimson blood mist appeared beside the Infinite Heavenly Venerable.
“Master, what are your orders?”
From within the blood mist came an icy voice, completely devoid of any emotion.
“To be safe, you will also go to Bright City,” the Infinite Heavenly Venerable commanded.
From the blood mist, that cold voice responded.
“Master, if I leave, there will be no one left to protect you.”
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable laughed and said, “Do not worry. Although this seat’s injuries have not yet healed, I still possess the power to protect myself.”
“Moreover, with this seat here, who would dare to invade?”
“You go to Bright City at once and watch the Fourth Elder, the Fifth Elder, and Su Wuming from the shadows.”
“If they cannot handle it, then you may act.”
“Remember, you must bring Ye Changsheng back to this seat alive, even if he only has one breath left.”
“Ye Changsheng is very important to this seat! Extremely important! Vitally important!”
“Do you understand?”
The cold voice from the blood mist replied, “I understand.”
“Go quickly, and do not disappoint this seat.” The Infinite Heavenly Venerable waved his hand.
Pop—
A light sound rang through the air, and the mass of blood mist vanished in an instant.
“Two Saints, one divine son, plus one Great Saint, together with the City Lord of Bright City and countless guards. This seat refuses to believe that Ye Changsheng can still escape.”
“Ye Changsheng, when this seat sees you again, all the treasures on your body will belong to me.”
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable felt so excited that he wanted to laugh out loud.
Then his expression turned gloomy once more.
“A mere Ye Changsheng has actually turned our Yin-Yang Sect upside down. He is truly detestable.”
Thinking of this, the Infinite Heavenly Venerable’s gaze grew icy cold, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the palace.
The next moment, he appeared at the Soul Mourning Cliff.
“Where is Dragon Bodhisattva?” the Infinite Heavenly Venerable shouted.
Soon, the figure of Dragon Bodhisattva flew up from below the Soul Mourning Cliff and arrived before the Infinite Heavenly Venerable. He bowed and said, “Greetings, Master.”
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable grabbed Dragon Bodhisattva with one hand and tore fiercely.
“Ah…”
Dragon Bodhisattva let out a miserable scream as his body was ripped in half, blood flowing everywhere. He cried out in terror, “Master—”
“What have you been doing all these days?” the Infinite Heavenly Venerable said, then released Dragon Bodhisattva.
In an instant, Dragon Bodhisattva’s torn body closed back together.
Dragon Bodhisattva’s face turned pale from the pain. He said, “Master, these days your disciple has been cultivating without pause.”
“Trash! After worshipping under this seat for so long, you are still stuck at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm. Utter trash.”
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable was still furious. He grabbed Dragon Bodhisattva again and tore him apart once more.
“Aaahhh…”
Dragon Bodhisattva screamed continuously. His body was repeatedly torn apart and rejoined by the Infinite Heavenly Venerable, over a hundred times, with blood splattering everywhere.
These past days, he had been cultivating desperately without a moment’s rest. Just two days ago, he had finally broken through the peak of the Nascent Soul realm.
Honestly, his cultivation speed was not slow at all. After all, he had not been under the Infinite Heavenly Venerable for very long, and the Infinite Heavenly Venerable had never truly taught him anything.
Dragon Bodhisattva had thought that when he next met the Infinite Heavenly Venerable, he would surely be praised. Who could have expected this outcome?
“Damn it, what exactly provoked this old bastard to suddenly come here and torment me?”
Dragon Bodhisattva felt hatred surging in his heart. If he could defeat the Infinite Heavenly Venerable, there was no question—he would tear the old man into eight pieces.
After quite a while.
Only then did the Infinite Heavenly Venerable finally release Dragon Bodhisattva. At this point, Dragon Bodhisattva was on the verge of death, lying on the ground and wailing, “Master, your disciple has never dared to slack off. I have been cultivating all along…”
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable had already calmed down somewhat, but seeing Dragon Bodhisattva in this state made him angry all over again.
Bang!
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable kicked Dragon Bodhisattva and cursed, “After worshipping under this seat for so long, you are still inferior to a single Ye Changsheng. Truly worthless.”
Ye Changsheng?
What does this have to do with Ye Changsheng?
Dragon Bodhisattva was very confused.
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable continued, “That brat Ye Changsheng killed two divine sons, one godson, and seven city lords of our sect. He is truly audacious.”
What? Ye Changsheng killed so many people?
Even the divine sons and city lords were slain by him?
Just how far has his cultivation advanced?
Dragon Bodhisattva was first shocked by Ye Changsheng’s strength, then filled with resentment towards him, because he now understood why the Infinite Heavenly Venerable had come to torment him.
“Ye Changsheng, you bastard. You made me suffer such torment. I will never let you go.”
At this thought, Dragon Bodhisattva suddenly had an idea and said, “Master, your disciple will descend the mountain at once and kill Ye Changsheng.”
Dragon Bodhisattva thought to himself that it would be better to slip away and escape the clutches of the Infinite Heavenly Venerable than to stay here and be tormented.
Bang!
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable kicked Dragon Bodhisattva again and cursed, “Stop dreaming. A trash like you could never kill Ye Changsheng.”
“He can even kill a divine son. Crushing you would be easier than crushing an ant.”
“Be honest with me. Are you trying to go down the mountain to disgrace me, or are you trying to escape?”
Dragon Bodhisattva was so frightened he nearly wet himself.
He had not expected that his intentions would be seen through by the Infinite Heavenly Venerable. He quickly said, “Master, you misunderstand. Your disciple only wants to help you eliminate Ye Changsheng.”
“That bastard framed me last time and nearly got me killed. I wish I could grind his bones to dust.”
“Master…”
“You should be grateful to Ye Changsheng,” the Infinite Heavenly Venerable said. “If it were not for Ye Changsheng, how would you have had the chance to become this seat’s disciple?”
Dragon Bodhisattva thought to himself, if it were not for Ye Changsheng, how would I have ended up being tormented by an old bastard like you?
Both of you deserve to die.
Seeing Dragon Bodhisattva lowering his head and saying nothing, looking like a beaten dog, the Infinite Heavenly Venerable grew angry again.
Bang bang bang!
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable kept kicking Dragon Bodhisattva while cursing, “Just how blind was this seat back then to accept a trash like you as a disciple?”
“Compared to Ye Changsheng, you are nothing but garbage.”
“The next time this seat sees you, if your cultivation has not broken through to the Tongshen realm, this seat will torment you severely, making you wish for death but unable to die.”
“Get lost—”
After saying this, the Infinite Heavenly Venerable delivered another fierce kick.
Bang!
Dragon Bodhisattva’s body flew like a sandbag, tumbling down the Soul Mourning Cliff.
The Infinite Heavenly Venerable felt much better and said, “This trash still has some use. In the future, when this seat is in a bad mood, I can always come find him.”
