Half-Tried Deity

Chapter 136.1: Follow Me? (Part 1)

“Hey, fellow Daoist, I don’t know what you insisted on taking this kid for? If you dare to swear that you will never use this girl’s eyes for alchemy, we Monster Race will leave now.” Qing Se ignored the quarrel between the two sides and looked at the First Heaven immortal with a smile on his face.

The First Heaven immortal listened to Qing Se’s words, the expression on his face showed obvious disdain, “She followed me voluntarily, what right do you monsters have to bother me!” He had a sense of superiority, but it was also true. There was still a gap between the First Heaven immortal and the dacheng monster cultivator. However, Qi Huan was even more curious, what did Qing Se mean about using her eyes to make alchemy?

“Respected Immortal Gu Qi is right. Why do we need to listen to you Monster Sect? Besides, this girl is a human being, not a monster cultivator. Even if you say she is related to you, that’s a bit too far-fetch.” The Mount Shu elder who was arguing with the devil cultivator earlier, hurriedly said. It seemed that this First Heaven immortal was from Mount Shu.

“Since this is how you guys think, then there is nothing to say. Her eyes belong to the monster’s pupil. Us Monster Sect will never allow the monster pupil to flow into the immortal realm. This is a rule set by our clan since its existence. In order to abide by this rule, even if it pays for the lives of all the monsters of the Monster race, we will not hesitate to do so.” It was not that Qing Se couldn’t see that the old man on the opposite side had a higher level of cultivation than him. In the current mortal world, none of the cultivators were more advanced than him, so the only possibility was that the old man was a deity.

Hundreds of years ago, immortals did descend to the mortal world before. However, at that time, Qing Se knew that the immortal that descended all had a terrible fate in the end, and the man behind the scene was Qi Huan.

This matter was circulated as a rumor amongst the immortal cultivation realm, but in fact, he knew that it was not a rumor at all.

Because of this, Mount Shu had a big feud with the Qing Yun Sect. Qi Huan had issues with Mount Shu before she soared to heaven. Qi Huan was also ruthless at the time. Many Mount Shu cultivators surrounded her at the time, but almost all of them were severely injured by her. The thunder she cleaved was like a sky thunder, no one could stop it. As a result, during those hundreds of years, Qi Huan would clear the scene as soon as she appeared, and she was really more frightening than a devil cultivator.

Qing Se knew that he did not have Qi Huan’s strength, but he was cruel. The monsters in the Monster Sect regarded the law as their life and would never violate it. In any case, he must prevent this old man from taking the girl away. Therefore, he was willing to sacrifice all the monsters in order to keep the girl.

As for the devil cultivators, of course they also had their own ideas. Those monster pupils had only appeared in legends, even Qing Se himself didn’t know what those eyes were for. But they were a legendary thing after all, so naturally everyone wanted to get a share of the pie.

Qing Se’s expression was too serious, not only did he make the devil cultivators who were listening to him scared, but also the elders of Kun Lun and Mount Shu. Qing Se alone was not scary, but if all the monster cultivators were to gather, the number was a frightening figure! Moreover, everyone could tell that he was serious.

It was a pity that Gu Qi didn’t think that Qing Se posed a threat to him, instead, he thought that Qing Se overestimated himself. Seeing the elder of Mount Shu looking back at him, Gu Qi shook his sleeves and snorted coldly, “You keep dreaming, I want this child.”

In this situation, even a fool knew that she was treated as a cargo. But the girl seemed to have not noticed it. She stood beside Gu Qi honestly, her blackened little hand holding a broken flying sword that Gu Qi gave her.

Gu Qi was really too stingy.

That flying sword was actually made from common iron in the mortal world with a little gold essence, how shameful he was to give out such a thing.

Gu Qi’s words indicated no possibility for the two sides to compromise.

Qing Se was not ambiguous. Before Gu Qi’s voice was completely spoken, he had already made a move.

He learned this tactic from Qi Huan. Ever since Qi Huan helped Qing Se to overthrow the sacrificial hall and imprisoned the great elder of the sacrificial hall, she basically entered the Monster Sect as if it was her territory at that time, and occasionally she would find Qing Se to practice techniques.

At the beginning, Qing Se still played with Qi Huan, who was younger than him for many thousands of years. Who knew, when she really fought, Qi Huan didn’t care about the morals of the world at all, and went up to sprinkle pepper on her opponent. She also poured chili water, and sometimes buried hidden weapons in the competition venue! Even if Qing Se’s cultivation level was higher than Qi Huan’s back then, he had never seen such fighting techniques before! Speaking of which, sneak attack should be Qi Huan’s most civilized attack method.

Anyway, Qi Huan’s shamelessness definitely made him ashamed. After so many years of education, he learned this trick from Qi Huan. As for her other tricks…as the head of the Monster Sect, he really had no guts to do it.

Fortunately, Gu Qi didn’t let the two elders of Kun Lun and Mount Shu protect him when Qing Se attacked. In fact, the two elders were not Qing Se’s opponents even if they joined forces.

Gu Qi was probably afraid that people would snatch the little girl away while he wasn’t paying attention, or perhaps he was very confident in himself, so he even brought Qiao Qiao by his side when he was fighting against Qing Se.

In the beginning, when the two met, Qing Se was clearly at a disadvantage. A deity could tear the laws of the mortal world with a wave of his hands, which was why the immortal world had prohibited deities from descending to the mortal world.

Qing Se didn’t dare to confront Gu Qi at all. Those who watched the excitement felt that the two of them were just faking their fight because they didn’t even touch the opponent’s clothes at all after fighting for a half a day.

Although the monster cultivator’s system was much stronger than human beings, it couldn’t be compared with the immortals. In order to prevent any accidents from happening, Qing Se did his best in every move. After a while, he was a little weak, but Gu Qi seemed to be okay. However, in fact, Gu Qi was also sulking. He was forced to a fight by a dacheng monster cultivator, and yet he couldn’t fight back, this was such a disappointment as an immortal.

Probably it felt boring to drag. The two seemed to let go of their scruples at the same time, preparing to settle the battle with one move. Qing Se suddenly turned into a blue nine-tailed fox. His nine long tails were more than three meters long with cyan light floated openly in the air. He looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, and then rushed towards Gu Qi.

Gu Qi’s expression changed when he saw that Qing Se transformed. Qing Se’s cultivation level was even higher than he had imagined. If Qing Se soared, he might be able to directly achieve the Second Heavens stage.

Upon seeing this, Gu Qi did not dare to act slowly. A faint golden light floated on the surface of his body, dyeing him like a golden man.

Only Qi Huan and Mo Ye, who were more advanced than him, could tell that he actually transferred the golden body to defend himself, it seemed that he was afraid of Qing Se’s attacks.

Before the onlookers could see anything, in the blink of an eye, Qing Se had already rushed to Gu Qi’s side, but his giant claws were abruptly blocked a few millimeters from Gu Qi’s head. The unidentified golden was what blocked him.

At this time, Gu Qi was definitely not much better. He urged the golden body to defend himself, but this caused him to consume a lot of his energy, so he couldn’t counterattack at all, he could only defend himself. Fortunately, Qing Se had no helper.

Upon thinking of this, Gu Qi sighed. Qing Se was already at his limit, he couldn’t hold it for long. He (Gu Qi) would just wait until Qing Se used up all his energy, and then give him the final blow.

It was a pity that before this expectation had been realized, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his armpit. Under the sharp pain, his golden body defense immediately collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Everyone present didn’t know what happened, but Qing Se seized the opportunity and snapped Gu Qi’s head in half.

Qi Huan looked at the only calm face among the crowd. Qiao Qiao, who was holding the small sword that was now stained with golden blood in her small hand, was also surprised. Qi Huan didn’t expect that this little girl, who had always been silly in her eyes, would stab the sword through Gu Qi at a critical moment, and she even pierced it through his heart.

“This is the role of the monster pupil?” Qi Huan raised her head and asked Mo Ye.

Mo Ye didn’t seem to be too surprised by the little girl’s reaction. With a smile on his face, he nodded, “If she can cultivate into an immortal, I am afraid that those eyes can directly see through the weakness of an Eight Heavens Immortal Lord.”

“That’s crazy, then, won’t that make whoever has such a pair of eyes invincible!” Qi Huan was also a little envious.

Mo Ye shook his head, “That’s not the case. The power of the monster pupil is too powerful. Those high-level monsters with the monster pupil wouldn’t be able to control the violent monster energy in their body when they cultivated to a certain extent, and 100% of them who reached that extent would die, no one would be spared. Otherwise, they would be chased to death by immortals like immortal ghosts.”

Deities were like this. They would wipe out all threats to them. They claimed to be the ruler of the Three Realms and Six Paths, but who had ever admitted it.

One had rights in oneself’s life. What right did they have?

“So, she will die sooner or later?”

Mo Ye shook his head again, “I don’t know about that…”

“…”
