"What a load of crap! You coming to the Ancestor Star is utterly useless. If I had come along, I'd already have the junior apprentice serving tea to the master!"
"What causality or not, if the master hadn't entertained such thoughts, you wouldn't even be able to call yourself a junior disciple, right, Master!"
The young girl suddenly shouted loudly.
"Xiao, do you know why I didn't want you to follow me..." Zhou Wuliang's voice surfaced.
"Because I'm too youthful and energetic, and you'd feel too old, Grandpa~" Xiao said mischievously.
Instantly, Zhou Wuliang lost the desire to speak.
"That's why I say, our master is secretly a control freak..." Xiao covered her mouth with one hand, pretending to whisper to Li Hu.
Zhou Wuliang, in the inner chamber, just felt a headache. He had six personal disciples left, and apart from Li Hu, they were all rebellious; none of them gave him peace!
He thought Xiao would first pay respects to him, this master, upon arriving at Ancestor Star, but instead, she was gossiping with Li Hu behind his back...
He withdrew his heart and spirit, thinking perhaps ignoring these rebellious disciples might let him live a few more days...
However, the moment Zhou Wuliang withdrew his heart and spirit.
Xiao's expression changed.
"I can sense the master's heart and spirit."
Li Hu's expression was also slightly stiff.
"The master has no ambition left, his Qi is sinking, and his heart and spirit are fading away, his anchor point losing balance. That battle back then, the master burned his heart and spirit rank, entering the Daoist Master state from the Celestial Human Realm, paving the way for the Federation, but completely ruined his foundation.
Later, those incidents happened, and the master's will was no longer present, unable to knock the '7' again..." Xiao's voice grew somber and sorrowful.
"Isn't it the master's choice, I respec..." Li Hu spoke mournfully.
But before he finished, a 'smack' was heard, and Xiao slapped him on the back of the neck, making Li Hu shudder, feeling as if his neck nearly broke.
"Respect my ass! The old man dragged us along all our lives, and he wants to die so miserably? I don't agree, and neither do those plague-ridden senior brothers and sisters of yours!"
"The old man doesn't want to fight anymore, we'll fight for him!! Everything the Federation owes the old man must be paid back in full!"
"Do you know why I came to Ancestor Star..."
"Why?" Li Hu asked, puzzled by the senior sister's sudden visit to Ancestor Star, as she always wandered the cosmos.
"Some hypocrites hired a few dogs, wanting to see if the master is still around, and I'm here... to kill the dogs." The young girl spoke softly.
Then, her entire figure flickered and seemed to dissipate like a cloud of mist.
"Senior sister, where are you going?"
Li Hu recently picked up a dialect from somewhere.
Xiao's voice drifted over faintly.
"Going to the training camp to have some fun, and waiting to pick up the junior disciple. Once he comes out, I'll lead him to serve tea to the master and make the raw rice into cooked rice first!"
Hearing this, Li Hu frowned, sensing something wasn't quite right.
He shouted loudly.
"Senior sister, the phrase making raw rice into cooked rice can't be used in this context."
However, the response was...
Swoosh!!!
A cloud stream surged forth, like a heavy hammer, crashing into Li Hu.
Before Li Hu's Martial Arts Dao could even emerge, he was sent flying.
"Using it here... suits fine..."
Li Hu lay on the ground, giving a thumbs up, smiling brightly.
Damn it, I should be betting with senior sister at an eight-to-two split now, two minutes to kill me eight hundred times, and even throw in a three-pointer.
....
After Su Tu instructed Xue Yue to use mimicry, Hua Yun and Hua Yu soon found their way over.
"Sir!!"
"Greetings, sir!!"
The two figures half-kneeled on the ground, their eyes impossibly fervent as they gazed upwards, reflecting the back of a young man.
What a majestic, solitary figure that was, just standing there made one feel he was above all, illuminating the shadow of a deity and comprehending everything.
No one in this world could understand him, only gods could know his intentions.
In their eyes, Su Tu's back seemed taller and more magnificent than the heavens.
Su Tu wasn't sure what these two were imagining. At this moment, he slowly turned around, his expression carrying a mix of compassion and sanctity.
After witnessing the rituals of the primal beings, Su Tu's acting skills had taken another level up.
"I told you, in the Tri-Deity Cult, everyone is equal."
"You need not do this."
Upon hearing these words, Hua Yun and Hua Yu became even more excited. The concept of hierarchy within the Tri-Deity Cult was severe and rigid.
And only someone like sir could say words like all Tri-Deity believers are equal!!
No wonder their godfather regarded him as a guiding beacon.
The two stood up, their gazes filled with utmost reverence towards Su Tu. Su Tu had no doubt that even if he told them to commit suicide now, they would do so without hesitation.
This was the terror of the Three Deceits Cult, the power of faith... It was terrifying. If it couldn't be destroyed, then it must be controlled by oneself!
"Sir, Chen Daowen dared to bet with your head; we have captured him, and his life or death is up to your decision!"
The two brought Chen Daowen straight to Su Tu.
At this moment, Chen Daowen was barely like an Exiled Immortal; his body was covered in dust, face stained with blood, in utter disarray.
His eyes were tightly shut, as if in a faint.
Looking at Chen Daowen, Su Tu spoke, "Weren't you betting with my head?"
"Playing dead won't take my head."
Just as Su Tu finished speaking.
Bam!!
Chen Daowen suddenly rose from the ground, emanating waves of misty power, his powerful aura surging fiercely.
Buzz buzz buzz!!
Everything around was vibrating under this aura.
"Su Tu!! So you are a member of the Three Deceits Cult. No wonder a local martial artist like you could have such prowess!"
"Hua Family, you've colluded with the Three Deceits Cult!!"
"You're finished!! You're finished!! Associating with the Deceitful Sect is a grave offense against the Federation!"
"Your clansmen will die for this, your loved ones will wail day and night!"
Chen Daowen spoke with a crazed demeanor.
"Noisy!" Su Tu didn't want to waste words with him, launching a punch with suppression that shook the surroundings.
He intended to smash Chen Daowen with one punch. The opponent's power was on par with Zhang Muye, both regarded as geniuses with Six Paths Body Lock, yet they were no different from weeds in his eyes.
This punch, carrying the Prajna Seven Kills and filled with True Qi, roared relentlessly, with the air being compressed and exploding in layers.
But unexpectedly...
"Immortal Robe Technique!!"
Chen Daowen roared, sensing the terrifying power in the punch, not holding back at all.
A misty, bright phantom shrouded Chen Daowen, as a seemingly feminine Immortal Robe appeared on him.
Instantly, Chen Daowen's aura skyrocketed!!
His True Qi roared like thunder, and his acupoints inhaled and exhaled like a raging tide, throwing a punch horizontally, colliding with Su Tu's punch.
Rumble!!
Crack!!!
With a resounding explosion, an alarming crack spread from beneath their feet, crazily extending outward, the entire ground crisscrossed with web-like cracks.
"This aura feels familiar!!"
Su Tu detected a familiar aura from Chen Daowen's person, which was... the aura of that Immortal Robe in Niu Er's memory!
Unexpectedly, the Immortal Robe was related to the Chen Family. What a coincidence!
A frenzy of excitement welled up in Su Tu's eyes, while Chen Daowen's eyes trembled with panic.
