Yang Zhen was stunned. The despicable cat actually unexpectedly unearthed an extremely exquisite little peach-wood box from who knows where. It was squatting on top of the box, tail curled upwards, its whole body trembling with effort.
Upon hearing Yang Zhenâs rebuke, the despicable cat was electrified. All its hair stood on end, and a small piece of something glittering gold fell from under its tail with a âplopâ into the little box.
After that, the despicable cat gave a shudder, covered its rear with its tail instantly, and turned to glare furiously at Yang Zhen. âDamn it, what the hell are you shouting about? Trying to scare me to death so you can take away my precious poop that Iâve been keeping for years?â
Yang Zhenâs mouth twitched. He stared in shock at the despicable cat and clicked his tongue in amazement. Seeing the catâs expression, he got angry. âHave you ever seen anyone hiding shit in their secret stash? Only you could come up with such a filthy idea, how on earth did I come to know such a low-class idiot like you!â
The despicable cat let out a creepy laugh, looking self-satisfied. âWhat do you know? The poop that Iâve been hoarding for years is very useful. Itâs in no way inferior to those crappy Taoist details you left behind.â
Yang Zhen pinched his nose uncertainly. âWhat a smell, quickly cover it up, how many years have you been holding in this crap?â
The despicable cat, with a disgruntled face, closed the box and, with a somewhat smug expression, said, âNot too long, perhaps a couple of thousand years.â
Yang Zhen:
âBoy, think about it, what else could be left behind? The legacy of the grand Eastern Desolation Emperor and the secret stash of the pirate king of the Coast of the East Sea couldnât just be this little, could it?â
Yang Zhen glared at the despicable cat and said, âNo need, the Eastern Desolation Emperor did leave some things here.â
Left something?â The despicable cat looked confused as he asked while looking at the giant bronze alchemy furnace in front of Yang Zhen, âThis thing? Arenât you going to take it with you? It was used by the emperor after all, it should be worth a lot.â
A pained expression appeared on Yang Zhenâs face as he said, âI also want to take it but this thing seems to be connected to the local leyline. The Eastern Desolation Emperor, the bastard, almost trapped me in there earlier!â
Having said this, Yang Zhen pointed at his face and said with a look of grief, âJust look, look! A successful cultivation at the Nascent Soul Stage was almost forcefully pushed into the Void Cultivation Stage by him. Who could I possibly complain about this to? Do you think the East Desolation Emperor had too much time on his hands, creating such a monstrous thing just to mess with people?â
âEh?â The despicable cat looked at Yang Zhen suspiciously and cursed, âDonât play innocent after youâve already taken advantage. Donât you want to increase your cultivation level? Let me do it, then. You really dared to reject such a wonderful chance?â
While saying this, the despicable cat ran towards the furnace and leapt inside in one bound.
Yang Zhen sneered saying, âWho cares about this thing, donât I know how to ascend to higher realms myself? The True Essence obtained in this way has unstable roots anyway. Whoever wants it can have it, I certainly donât.â
The furnace remained silent. With Yang Zhenâs puzzled expression, he kicked it a couple of times resulting in a dull sound, âDespicable cat, are you still alive in there?â
After listening to the silence, he climbed onto the furnace to look into it and immediately burst out laughing.
The despicable cat was feebly lying inside the furnace. Forget about the surging and raging Fire Elemental True Essence, not even a small flame could be found inside!
Yang Zhen, refusing to believe it, jumped into the furnace after him, but the furnace still remained unchanged.
Looking at the despicable catâs desperate expression, Yang Zhen erupted into laughter and said,â Perhaps⦠this thing is disposable?â
The despicable cat suddenly dashed towards Yang Zhen, âDamn it, Iâm going to fight it out with you, wastrel!â
âDamn!â
âOw, it hurts, kid, let go!â
âAdmit defeat or not?â
âAdmit, I admit wholeheartedly, thoroughly, and even my fur submits!â
At the Coast of the East Sea, Wanhua Island, thousands of practitioners gathered together, all looking out towards the surging East Sea.
âWhere on earth did Yang Zhen go? Half a month has passed and thereâs still no news.â
âWould he run away after receiving the legacy of the Eastern Desolation Emperor?â
âNo, the elder of the Sea Dragon Clan said that Yang Zhen would appear here, rest assured, the Sea Dragon Clan never lies.â
âNow so many people are waiting for Yang Zhen, this truly is an unprecedented event. Even the true heir of the Eastern Desolation Emperor has been waiting here for several days. Do you think Yang Zhen, when he emerges, could compete with Ye Zhiming?â
âWhat a joke!â Someone snorted derisively. âYe Zhiming is a formidable practitioner at the Divine Travel Stage, even stronger than Elder Yang whom Yang Zhen killed, and Elder Qui whom the leader of the Sea Dragon Clan ruthlessly defeated. Yang Zhen, lowly as he may be, how could he compare to Ye Zhiming?â
âExactly, and I heard that Ye Zhiming is one of the few who have entered the Spirit Road and lived to tell the tale. His powerful strength and profound foundation are evident.â
âWhat? A person who came out of the Spirit Road?â
Upon hearing âSpirit Road,â everyone around sucked in a breath, their expressions shocked, their gaze flickering uncertainly at a young man in white standing not too far away, pride evident in his demeanor.
Beside Ye Zhiming in white were Bai Xuan and Hua Youyue, standing alone. No other practitioners were nearby, indicating their high status.
âShouldnât Yang Zhen be back by now?â Ye Zhiming looked curiously at the vast East Sea, a curious expression on his face that did not match his rumored temperament â he was all but craning his neck in anticipation.
Bai Xuan scoffed, saying, âArenât you supposed to maintain the aloof demeanor of the heir to the Eastern Desolation Emperor?â
âAhem!â Ye Zhiming cleared his throat and said, âEven I can let loose once in a while.â
Hua Youyue remained impassive, as if she hadnât heard the conversation between Ye Zhiming and Bai Xuan at all.
Bai Xuan and Ye Zhiming exchanged a glance, seeing disbelief in each otherâs eyes.
When had the once world-renowned Flower Spirit Girl ever shown such a demeanor? Both of them grew more curious â just what exceptional qualities did Yang Zhen possess to captivate Hua Youyue so?
At that moment, the expressions of Bai Xuan and Ye Zhiming changed simultaneously, their brows furrowing as they looked toward the northwest.
A teenager arrived on a sword, with terrifying dark energy rolling out like thunder, casting a shadow over the sun. His daunting presence left everyone unable to look directly at him.
As the boy drew closer, the True Essence in mid-air began to solidify, emanating solemnity and murderous intent.
âGu Langyun!â
The faces of Bai Xuan and Ye Zhiming changed again as they simultaneously uttered a name.
The teen dressed in black clothes, with a solitary and proud demeanor like a serpent. His eyes, devoid of any emotion, sent shivers down everyoneâs spine whenever his gaze passed over them.
All the practitioners on the Coast of the East Sea were stunned as they watched Gu Langyun, a look of disbelief in their eyes.
âMy goodness, this ladâs cultivation is even stronger than Ye Zhiming!â
âThis palpable killing intent, just how many people has he killed to evoke such a bone-chilling effect?â
âNot only that, the long sword under his feet exudes a particularly savage aura, and itâs likely to be a sacred spirit treasure!â
âWhat? A sacred spirit treasure, just who is this lad?â
Astonished, the crowd watched the boy shooting through the sky, their faces constantly changing.
But the boy seemed uninterested in the crowdâs shocked expressions. As his eyes swept over them and landed on Hua Youyue, a sardonic smile appeared on his face. It was playful, excited, and nearly pathological.
âFlower Spirit Girl, Iâve finally found you!â
