Chapter 56 Why slap someone in the face?
Chapter 56 Why slap someone in the face?
Yun Zhongzi bowed respectfully and asked, "Uncle-Master and Senior Brother, what crime has Yun Zhongzi committed?"
The Master of Heaven closed his eyes and remained silent.
Seeing this, Duobao shouted sternly:
"You sent Lei Zhenzi to Sanxiao Island, did you ever teach him for even a single day?"
Yun Zhongzi lowered his eyes. He knew he was wrong, but at that time he was barely able to take care of himself, so how could he take care of an infant in swaddling clothes?
He had no choice but to lower his stance: "Never."
Duobao's Taoist robe stretched even tighter, his gaze sharp as a knife:
"Lei Zhenzi has been on Sanxiao Island for more than seven years. Since he was an infant, Junior Sister Yunxiao has raised him with great care and love. Now that he has grown up, he is showered with affection. If you want to take him away with a single innate spiritual treasure, you are treating our Jie Sect as nothing."
Yun Zhongzi felt increasingly helpless.
If he had a choice, he wouldn't want this apprentice.
If it weren't for the restrictions on him, as a Golden Immortal, he would live as long as heaven and earth, and wouldn't he be happy to roam the world freely?
"That was indeed a crucial moment in his cultivation, and Lei Zhenzi was bound by destiny; now, he could not disobey his master's orders..."
"If that's the case, then let my second brother come and explain in person."
Before Yun Zhongzi could finish speaking, Tongtian Jiaozhu spoke up.
Yun Zhongzi was greatly alarmed: "Let the teacher come?"
At that moment, a myriad of rays of light appeared, and the Primordial Celestial Venerable was already standing in the Biyou Palace.
His face was full of helplessness: "Third brother, why do this to yourself?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader and Duobao remained completely unfazed, clearly having anticipated this.
Duobao and Yunzhongzi exchanged greetings, and Yuanshi Tianzun nodded.
"Second brother, you are utterly heartless. Lei Zhenzi came to our Jie Sect, and not only did my disciple pour his heart and soul into him, but I also personally nurtured him. Now, your Chan Sect thinks you can just leave with a mere utterance of destiny?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader snorted coldly, "You disciples of the Chan Sect even insult my Jie Sect... Hmph, that's far too lenient."
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhongzi understood.
For years, the Jie Sect had been cursed by the Chan Sect for being born of fur and horns and being born from wet eggs. Now that they finally had a third-generation disciple with exceptional talent, they doted on him to the extreme. How could they easily let him go?
Although the second generation of disciples of the Jie Sect were outstanding, the third generation had few capable disciples, making them vastly inferior to the Chan Sect.
Yuanshi Tianzun gently shook his head and sighed.
The Master of Heaven turned his gaze to Yun Zhongzi:
"Moreover, this human brat, knowing Yunxiao's feelings, has now put Yunxiao in a difficult position, which is hateful."
He paused, then coldly uttered two words, "Deserves a beating."
Duobao's eyes gleamed with excitement, eager to try, waiting only for his master's command to rush forward.
Yun Zhongzi could only force a dry laugh.
Yuanshi Tianzun also glanced at Yun Zhongzi with "disdain," and then spoke:
"Lei Zhenzi possesses a destiny bestowed by Heaven, and this destiny cannot be defied."
"Our Jie Sect intercepts that single thread of destiny."
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned and looked at Tongtian Jiaozhu: "Do you perhaps wish to fight me?"
"Hmph, fine, I'll do it then."
The Tongtian Sect Leader, wielding the Qingping Sword, vanished.
Yuanshi Tianzun also snorted coldly, and the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi appeared in his palm, and his figure also disappeared.
Only Duobao and Yunzhongzi remained in Biyou Palace.
Duobao made a sword incantation with his fingertips, and four murderous immortal swords were arranged in four directions, trapping Yun Zhongzi in the center.
"Brother Duobao, what are you doing?"
"Hmph, didn't you hear what my master said just now?"
"What do you mean?"
"Damn it..." Duobao's face hardened, and a golden cudgel appeared in his hand. "He deserves to be hit!"
Under the suppression of the Four Swords of Zhuxian, Yun Zhongzi's magical power was completely sealed, making it impossible for him to even lift a foot to escape.
A series of muffled thuds echoed through Biyou Palace, mixed with screams of pain and angry shouts of "Boy, take this!"
Duobao avoided vital points with every strike, but deliberately targeted the face, wielding his golden cudgel with great force.
Before long, outside the Zhuxian Sword Formation, a ripple appeared, and Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu stood side by side.
Yuanshi Tianzun frowned as he looked in the direction of the sword formation, his tone tinged with resentment:
"Enough is enough. I only said to let you vent your anger, but don't really damage Yun Zhongzi's foundation."
The Grand Master of Heaven watched with great interest, not even blinking:
"Second brother, please don't be unreasonable. Lei Zhenzi has been cultivated by my Jie Sect and is now actually a member of my Jie Sect. He should be a disciple of my Jie Sect. I only agreed to lend him to you before to fulfill his destiny."
"Then return the Blood Transformation Box to me later."
"Second brother is too petty. Is it really worth asking for back a mere innate spiritual treasure?"
"This is a relic of Pangu."
"Now that you're in my hands, do you still want your money back?"
Yuanshi Tianzun: "..."
When the two saints finally appeared, Yun Zhongzi's primordial spirit had been shaken, the three flowers on his head had withered, the five qi in his chest were churning and disordered, and his originally handsome and otherworldly face was completely disfigured.
With a wave of his hand, the Tongtian Sect Leader dispelled the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation: "Alright."
Duobao immediately put away his staff and bowed to Yun Zhongzi, who had gained weight and whose magical power could not be quickly restored.
Yun Zhongzi was furious. Duobao struck his face with each blow, the force precise and painful, yet without causing any serious injury.
My face is my livelihood, and I'll remember this debt. One day I'll beat you, Duobao, until you're covered in bumps.
Just then, an anxious voice came from outside Biyou Palace:
"Master, I heard from Senior Sister Jinling that Senior Brother Duobao has returned, so I have come to pay my respects."
Upon hearing Yunxiao's voice, the Tongtian Sect Leader's gaze toward Yunzhongzi became even more hostile.
Yuanshi Tianzun, however, seemed to have drunk fine wine, and a smile bloomed on his face.
"Second brother, it's time for you to go."
"Hahaha... Tongtian, I take my leave."
Yuanshi Tianzun glanced at Yun Zhongzi with a rare smile of satisfaction before his figure vanished.
The palace gates opened, and Yunxiao stepped into Biyou Palace with a look of anxiety on his face.
Lei Zhenzi followed behind, his eyes darting around.
After paying his respects to the Tongtian Sect Leader, Yunxiao's gaze fell upon Yun Zhongzi.
Seeing his face covered in bruises and swollen, she tensed up, quickly stepped forward, took out a box of medicinal herbs from her sleeve, dipped her slender white fingers in the ointment, and applied it to his face.
Her movements were extremely light, as if she were touching a piece of porcelain with cracks.
But her gaze was not gentle; she turned her head and looked coldly at Duobao.
Duobao felt uneasy under her gaze and coughed lightly.
Then Yunxiao grabbed Yunzhongzi's arm and walked out.
Lei Zhenzi ran up to the two with a joyful expression. He had just finished greeting Tongtian Jiaozhu when Yunxiao turned around without even turning his head.
"Lei Zhenzi, return to the island immediately."
Lei Zhenzi chuckled, winked at the two of them, and then ran off in a flash.
The Tongtian Sect Leader's raised hand froze in mid-air.
She looked at Duobao with a hint of reproach: Why did you slap him? Don't you know what kind of person Yunxiao is?
Duobao: "..."
Chaoge City.
Guang Chengzi stood outside the Meridian Gate once again.
Obsessive Corpse, hidden in the shadows, watched him from afar, filled with doubt.
After the main body casually uttered a sentence, why did Guang Chengzi come again?
He saw that Guang Chengzi was completely different from before. Although there was still some anxiety on his face, there was also a calm smile.
A eunuch trotted out to greet him, his tone respectful, but his manners were much more relaxed than last time.
Guang Chengzi was not annoyed and followed the eunuch into the palace gate.
