Chapter 824: 825
At the same time.
Southern Continent.
Atop a mountain range, clothed in black, Zhang Kuang was kneeling with a vacant expression, his face swollen and bruised from being beaten, a sight too pitiful to behold.
“The Villian’s Guild, where did this power come from!”
“These people are all monsters at the end of the Human Immortal Realm, too terrifying; the capacity of my Dantian is already quite vast, yet theirs are even more expansive, how did they achieve that?”
“The key issue is, I didn’t offend them, so why has each one of them targeted me?”
“What did I do wrong, to be savagely defeated six times in one day, Master, tell me, am I really that useless?”
Zhang Kuang spoke listlessly, his injuries were not severe, but ironically, that made him feel more aggrieved; it indicated that the opponent had held back, perfectly controlling their power without harming him.
The damage was minimal, but the insult was extreme!
Especially the last words from that fatty, he would never forget them in this lifetime!
The fatty had said, “The brothers and sisters were quite restrained, if I crippled you, Ol’ Fatty really wouldn’t know how to proceed, not bad at all.”
This was blunt disdain, not going all out and instead worrying about injuring him, which deeply wounded his spirit.
A black-robed elder stood in front of him, patted his shoulder, “Disciple, let it go, sometimes life is just this plain and simple, since we can’t resist, let’s just treat it as a type of enjoyment!”
“Master, I’m not content, I want to strike back!”
Zhang Kuang said.
“No, you don’t want to, I saw your fight just now, you can’t beat them, those things are terribly fierce.”
The black-robed elder said indifferently, shaking his head.
“No, I do, as long as Master teaches me the Immortal Demon Transformation, I can beat them up!”
Zhang Kuang continued.
“Disciple, go wash and sleep.”
The black-robed elder turned and disappeared on the spot.
“Damn it, that old thing ran away again, he was just about to be moved, I was just a bit away from getting the technique, where did it go wrong?”
“Is there something wrong with my acting?”
Zhang Kuang’s expression was very depressed, he rubbed his face a few times, and just like that, all his injuries instantly healed.
In the jungle, having witnessed all this, the black-robed elder patted his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.
God damn it, this precious disciple is always eyeing his ‘book of burial’, lucky for him he was cautious, almost gave the book away by accident.
“But unexpectedly so many geniuses have emerged suddenly in the Central Origin Realm, what kind of power is the Villian’s Guild, a hidden sect?”
“Something doesn’t feel right, those youths earlier seemed to have mistaken me for someone else, calling out Elder Tianwu and such, could they be from the Earth Spirit Realm, otherwise why would they mistake me for Elder Tianwu?”
“On the Human Immortal Ranking List, Elder Tianwu is ranked twentieth, which shows he has come up from the Earth Spirit Realm, it’s all the arrangement of fate, the divination from back then might just come true!”
“Initially, I just tried splitting a Divine Soul to throw into the Lower Realm, but I didn’t expect this guy to actually start mingling, no way, I need to bring him back, can’t let him keep using my handsome face to bluff others.”
…
Sword Sect, Second Peak.
The list disappears.
The Villian’s Guild dominated the top of the list, announcing the emergence of a new evil power, but it missed Ergouzi and Ji Wuqing; these two poor souls didn’t have enough cultivation level to make the list, they could only sit idly and drool.
“Damn it, at such a grand standing-out moment, there’s not even a spot for me, Ergouzi!”
“Indeed, the four great villains are missing two, without my true self, how can this be called dominating the list!”
“No way, I must start cultivating urgently. I, too, must rise above Zhang Kuang!”
A chicken and a dog were stimulated and immediately threw themselves into the bathhouse to begin their frantic cultivation. Unknowingly, the little friends they once played with had far outstripped them, making them feel a sense of urgency.
“I’ve been having insights lately, so the old beggar went to study the cultivation techniques,” said the old beggar.
“I really didn’t expect our Brother Li to actually be from the Villian’s Guild, and to have so many geniuses under him, too. So cool!”
“Yeah, the Villian’s Guild just dominated the rankings. Brother Li really made a show this time.”
“But what exactly is this Villian’s Guild? How come we’ve never heard of it before?”
“Not having heard of it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that it’s an extremely powerful bad influence, otherwise how could it have produced someone as brilliant as Brother Li?”
“No wonder the sect dares not touch Brother Li. It must be that the big shots behind the Villian’s Guild have warned them.”
“Hehe, the Second Peak was given to Brother Li, we’re in for good times ahead.”
The many disciples once again returned to a harmonious and happy scene. Scooping poop, soaking in the baths, and smoking Huazi had indeed become their daily essential activities.
After their hard work, experiencing the ultimate comfort of their cultivation time brought a sense of achievement like never before.
And with Brother Li as a big tree to lean on, they felt themselves straighten up within the sect. Immersed in the delights of Huazi and the bathhouse, they didn’t even feel like attending the recent lectures given by the elders.
Li Xiaobai soaked in the bathhouse, squinting his eyes and taking a puff of Huazi, checking the System Attribute Points panel.
[Host: Li Xiaobai.]
[…]
[Defense: Human Immortal Body (90,000,000/100,000,000) can be advanced.]
[…]
The attribute points needed for advancing his defensive power had unknowingly increased to ninety million, just ten million short of the small target of one hundred million.
Ten million isn’t a lot; taking a stroll to Sword Peak later should do the trick.
“Brother Li, Elder Chen is outside asking for an audience.”
A disciple came to report.
“Let him in,”
said Li Xiaobai.
Elder Chen had also been present in the Sect Master Hall just now, but he hadn’t made things difficult for him. Coming over now, it seemed he had chosen his side and wanted to stand with the Sect Master.
“Hehe, Young Master Li, it’s good to see you’re well. Just now in the Sect Master Hall, the sight of Young Master Li fighting valiantly was truly impressive.”
Elder Chen, along with Chen Yuan, stepped into the bathhouse, smiles plastered across their faces.
“So it’s Elder Chen and Disciple Chen. What brings you here today?”
Li Xiaobai asked, smilingly. Now that he was in charge of the Second Peak, he was the senior brother; all others were his juniors.
“I wonder if Young Master Li still remembers the words you spoke at the Steward Hall that day. You said you would look out for my grandson. I would like this worthless guy to follow Young Master Li and train properly. What do you think?”
Elder Chen pulled Chen Yuan, who was hiding behind him, forward.
“Ah, that matter. Since Elder Chen has spoken, from now on, Disciple Chen can be a steward under me, handling all the major and minor matters of the Second Peak. How about that?”
“Are you serious?”
“Of course, it’s true. However, I also have a favor to ask of Elder Chen.”
“You may speak freely, Young Master Li!”
Li Xiaobai: “It’s actually not a big deal, just that rescuing a bunch of disciples all the time to exchange for Contribution Points at the Steward Hall is quite troublesome. I would trouble Elder to set our Contribution Points to unlimited overdraft, so it would be easier for everyone in the future.”
Elder Chen: “…”
