âFinally noticed, have you? I thought youâd see it sooner, but clearly I overestimated you.â
A middle-aged Daoist in simple robes, with a wooden sword strapped to his back and a bamboo scroll in hand, stepped forward.
âYou probably donât know meâI am Daoist Yancheng, senior brother to Ta Shi Xiaxin. After my worthless junior died, Wuzhong Mountain was left leaderless, so they summoned me to lead the Divine Alliance. Honestly, Iâm no fan of being Divine Alliance Lordâfreedom suits me better. But when my brother was slain, how could I, as his senior, do nothing? Thus I agreed to take command of Wuzhong Mountain and vowed that its divine clan would avenge Ta Shi Xiaxin.â
He smiled wryly. âI planned to seek you out in half a month, yet here we meet sooner. Perhaps this is the tribulation destined for you!â
Ye Yuâs brow tightened. âSenior brother to Ta Shi Xiaxin? Iâve never heard of him.â He wondered why this man radiated no divine powerâhe stood like any ordinary mortal, suppressing his aura perfectly.
Yancheng Daoist, seeing Ye Yuâs silence, did not grow angry. Instead, he turned his gaze to Little White. âSo this is the ferocious beast? Even untransformed, itâs quite adorable. And its power surpasses its masterâsâIâve never seen the like. Arenât you afraid it might eat you?â
Little White bristled, red light flickering around it. âEat, eat, eatâeat your motherâs head! Why would I eat my big brother? If I eat anyone, itâll be you, you bastard!â
Yancheng Daoist chuckled, unperturbed. âA beast is a beast; the moment it speaks, its nature is revealed. So you must die. But you, Ye Yu, may yet live. You harbor many secrets: how did you advance from the True God Realm to the Heavenly God Realm in three months? And how did the
Reincarnation Longbow
become a crossbow? I seek those answers in you.â
Ye â§ NĐŸvĐ”Iight â§ (Original source) Yuâs expression turned deadly serious. This old fox knew him so well! Unbeknownst to him, Yancheng Daoist wielded a wondrous technique called
Scene Re-creation
, which had shown him all of Ye Yuâs deeds on Wuzhong Mountainâhis habits, combat style, everything.
Clutching his wooden sword, Yancheng Daoist added softly, âBy the way, I forgot to tell youâthis place is already controlled by my formation, so donât bother using your
Communication Stone
to call for help. Itâs useless. Save your effort.â
