Chapter 686: The 3rd Family Slave: As Long as the Saint Dies, the Thieves Will Not Stop
Chapter 686: The Three-surnamed Slave, the Sage Will Not Die, the Thief Will Not Stop
"That's roughly what happened. Although Master didn't forbid the disclosure of this secret of the Mountain and Sea Realm, this matter is of great importance. It concerns the inheritance of the immortals in our Mountain and Sea Realm, and even more so, my life. I ask all Taoist friends to keep it a secret.
Otherwise, if the ancient cultivators or some traitors in the world find out, I will be in trouble."
On top of the Purple Mountain, amidst numerous formations, Yu Lie sat in front of a stone table, tasting the spiritual wine in the cup while talking to the people beside him.
Those sitting or standing in front of him were all top-grade golden elixirs from the Huoluan Immortal Palace, as well as Zi Zhuzi.
Several people have now dismissed their disciples, but each of them still has doubts and reluctance in their hearts, so they came here privately to inquire.
Zi Zhuzi murmured, "It actually concerns the inheritance of the Celestial Immortals. So, Lie'er, you are the son of the Black Emperor in the rumors?"
"Black Emperor's son! Celestial Immortal!"
The other Taoist masters were also filled with astonishment and shock, and they couldn't help but look at each other:
"The reason for the existence of my Disaster Realm is actually this... a celestial being will be born!"
After hearing Yu Lie's explanation, several people had a great understanding of Yu Lie's behavior of recognizing the thief as his father, and their expressions were no longer as angry as before.
But even so, the Master of the Great Light couldn't help but speak:
"Good fellow! You have squeezed out the value of my Chaos Domain, and now you are laying us off. What a great way to kill all the birds and hide the bows. This is like crossing the river and destroying the bridge."
When the other people heard Master Zhiguang's curse, their brows furrowed again.
Although they got a reasonable explanation from Yu Lie and knew that Yu Lie was the next celestial being of the Mountain and Sea Realm, and that everyone would have a bright future, but the Immortal Palace was abolished and the Chaos Realm was destroyed. They were trapped in the Disaster Realm and lived under the roof of others, which still made them unhappy.
After a few moments of silence, Zi Zhuzi, perhaps because she was not a troublemaker in the Immortal Palace, and because she had gained nothing but benefits from this incident, she was able to step out of this situation and observe from the sidelines, and then she began to persuade:
"My fellow Taoists, it is difficult to defy the will of heaven. The order of the Heavenly Venerable is the will of heaven for us. Even if Lie'er has already achieved the first-grade elixir, how can he defeat the Great Heavenly Venerable who is already a celestial being and can ascend to heaven at any time?"
Zi Zhuzi paused and said, "Besides, according to the imperial edict, the land of Tianzhou will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the Dao Court and the Immortal Court, and will become a separate faction!
Please rest assured, since my Qian Palace lineage was originally the lineage of the Huoluan Immortal Palace, this time the merger will naturally be based on the Immortal Palace. You only need to leave an independent palace for Zi's lineage for inheritance."
Taoist Master Zhiguang and another person were stunned when they heard this, and they all sighed, "Daoist Fellow Zizhu, you are too kind."
With Zi Zhuzi's comfort and persuasion, and after they put themselves in Yu Lie's shoes, they realized that although Yu Lie had gained a lot from this choice, he was indeed a difficult person to be. Their emotions gradually calmed down.
Seeing everyone like this, Yu Lie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, a sneer suddenly sounded:
"Yu Lie! There is one last question. Since they dare not ask it, I will ask it. Anyway, I am the best at offending people."
Yu Lie was stunned when he found that it was Heishuizi who spoke with a forced smile.
Upon hearing this, Taoist Zhiguang and others immediately fixed their eyes on Heishuizi.
Hei Shuizi bowed to everyone, without further ado, and said simply and clearly:
"How can you prove the truth of these statements? How can you know that the great celestial master has not deceived you and me?
Is he, the Great Heavenly Venerable, really a great saint who is thoughtful about the Mountain and Sea Realm, rather than a great borer?"
Heishuizi said sinisterly: "The ancients said, as long as the saints are alive, the thieves will never stop.
The fact that he postponed his ascension for three thousand years could be said to be for the sake of the Mountain and Sea Realm, or it could be that he deliberately caused this to happen to the Mountain and Sea Realm..."
In an instant, everyone at the scene, including Yu Lie, was shocked.
They did not expect Heishuizi to ask such a sharp question, and even directly cursed the Great Heavenly Venerable in his words. He was extremely bold!
Zizhuzi was frightened by Heishuizi's words, and immediately checked the formations around him to see if there were any omissions, so that the conversation of the crowd would not be accidentally eavesdropped by others and commit a serious crime.
However, although they looked horrified, they opened their lips slightly and then closed them. They did not scold or persuade Heishuizi to restrain himself. Instead, they all looked at Yu Lie.
Obviously, the four of them all thought so in their hearts, and they actually had doubts about what Yu Lie said.
They did not doubt Yu Lie, but the Great Heavenly Venerable, and did not trust him!
Yu Lie stared at them in a daze, his face frozen for a few breaths.
The next moment, he glared at Hei Shuizi with a bad look:
"Heishuizi! My master is a celestial being who controls the entire mountain and sea. The gap between us is like that between an ant and the sky. How could he deceive us?
Don't judge a gentleman by your own standards! "
Heishuizi did not back down in the face of Yu Lie's scolding, and the sneer on his face became even more intense:
"You won't deceive you and me? Then why am I, the Chaos Immortal Palace, now in the Mountain and Sea Realm? Isn't it because I was deceived by the reputation of the Immortal Court for 30,000 years?
I'm telling you the truth, ever since that old thing tricked you and me into entering this realm and made promises that were as good as farts, it no longer has any credibility in this realm!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Lie flew into a rage, stood up from the stone bench, and angrily scolded Hei Shuizi:
"How dare you, a peasant like you, slander my teacher like this!"
As he spoke, his hair flowed up and his Dan Qi surged. A powerful pressure was already weighing on everyone's hearts, as if he was about to have a big fight with Heishuizi in the next moment.
Seeing this, Zizhuzi and the others quickly spoke up to ease the situation: "We are all family, why do we have to do this, why do we have to do this!"
"Lie'er, Tianzun is your master now. Senior Brother Heishui taught you the Dao and the Dharma in the past. You and him were also your teacher. How can you speak with contempt like this?"
Yu Lie gritted his teeth and stared at Heishuizi. Despite being stopped and persuaded by Zizhuzi and others, he managed to suppress his anger and did not really take action.
It was Heishuizi, however, who looked at Yu Lie through several people.
This guy still stiffened his neck and shouted: "Yu, you dare to treat me like this!?
Fortunately, I gave you a lot of benefits back then, and when I was in the Sword Garden, I was always thinking about saving you and your lovers!
Bah! You are my disciple Zizhu, Huoluan, and Tianzun. You are a slave of three surnames. I am not worthy of having a master-disciple relationship with you. "
Zheng! ! !
The Dan Qi in Yu Lie's body could no longer be suppressed. Two ghost swords flew out from his sleeves and hovered beside him with a buzzing sound.
He squeezed out a sound from his teeth: "Hei Shuizi, shut up!"
As a result, Hei Shuizi heard it and still shouted: "Oh, by the way! I have always been curious why you haven't taken a Taoist name until now.
So you are waiting to become a disciple of Tianzun, and ask your Tianzun master to help you get it. Haha! Compare prices and wait for the right price. "
Heishuizi's curse was so harsh that Zizhuzi and others looked at him sideways.
This time, Yu Lie couldn't stand it anymore and shouted:
"We are not worthy of a master-disciple relationship, right?
"Old man, is my ghost furnace still in need of a third sword slave? I think you would be a good ghost slave."
The strong murderous intent made the four people present feel cold in their hearts.
Taoist Master Zhiguang and another top-grade golden elixir felt it and for a moment they didn't dare to stand in front of Yu Lie any longer.
Zi Zhuzi still dared to continue standing in front of Yu Lie and shouted angrily:
"Yu Lie, if you dare to accept Senior Brother Heishui as your ghost slave, you might as well accept me as your slave first!"
Chi Chi!
Streams of white gas appeared beside her, separating the two of them, forcing Yu Lie to step over her body if he wanted to catch Heishuizi.
Yu Lie's gaze turned to her and he looked her up and down coldly.
And the other side.
Heishuizi is not the kind of guy who would sit there and wait for death.
A good man does not suffer immediate losses.
Seeing that Yu Lie was completely enraged, he retreated more than ten steps and continued to rush out of the formation, breaking through the layers of soundproofing and invisible formation.
While retreating, Hei Shuizi was still shouting:
"Everyone, stop this slave from making a big mistake...
Hey! Mr. Yu, your grandfather Heishui will go first. "
The formation was broken and the harsh words were spoken.
Heishuizi ran away without a trace.
Keng!
A thick sword energy chopped fiercely in the direction where the opponent was leaving, but missed, and in the end only destroyed a lot of Zi Zhuzi's purple mountain.
Yu Lie's angry voice resounded throughout the Qianzhou Taoist Palace:
"How dare you bully me, old man!"
Such a commotion immediately caused an uproar in the Taoist Palace and Taoist City.
"Is this noise coming from Master Liezi and his men on Purple Mountain?!"
"What is a three-surnamed slave?"
Many disciples of the Immortal Palace were stunned when they heard this. After pondering the conversation between the two, they either sneered or secretly cursed Heishuizi for being shameless.
Some of the remaining Jindan Taoist masters who were still staying in Qianzhou Taoist City all had strange expressions on their faces, as if they were enjoying a good show.
And on top of Purple Mountain.
Zi Zhuzi looked at Zishan with pain, the part of the body that was cut by Yu Lie's sword with a big hole in it. She cursed Yu Lie and Heishuizi in her heart.
However, she continued to stand in front of Yu Lie, preventing Yu Lie from going out to chase and kill the latter.
The other two Jindan Dao masters also stepped forward to stop the fight, saying:
"Brother Daoist Heishui and Brother Daoist Yu are friends for life and death. Why do you have to fight to the death just because of a verbal dispute?"
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Yu. We believe you. Isn't it just abandoning the garbage dump in the Disaster Realm? I've long since despised that place for being desolate."
"Yes, we are still here. It's just a dead place, why bother about it? Besides, we are still the tigers in the Mountain and Sea Realm. We don't need to care about anyone's opinion..."
Three people surrounded Yu Lie, speaking sweet words to him one after another, and only then did they suppress the anger and murderous intent on Yu Lie's face and calm him down.
After a period of agitation, Yu Lie looked at the three people in front of him, opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he just sighed deeply.
Yu Lie bowed to Zizhuzi and the other two:
"Thank you all for helping me prevent my anger from causing me to make a big mistake. From now on, I will leave you alone here to reflect on your actions."
Zi Zhuzi and the others wanted to say something, but Yu Lie made a gesture of incantation, and a gentle magical power pushed the three of them out.
Thick white fog also swirled up from beside Yu Lie, tightly enveloping the ten-foot area around the stone table, making it impossible for anyone to see through it with their eyes or spiritual consciousness.
"Why is it so..."
Zi Zhuzi and the other two looked at each other and could only sigh. After whispering a few words to each other, they left with little interest. In the end, only Zi Zhuzi was left on Zishan to look after Yu Lie.
Soon, what happened on Zishan Mountain could no longer be concealed.
After Master Zhiguang and others left the mountain, they simply revealed the conflict between Yu Lie and Heishuizi and explained it clearly to all the disciples, but they omitted the words in which Heishuizi cursed Tianzun.
What surprised them was that the originally restless people in the Immortal Palace became much calmer and stopped making noise after learning that Heishuizi had made a big fuss and Yu Lie had been scolded.
The undercurrents that were originally surging inside and outside the Immortal Palace were unexpectedly mostly eliminated, causing many Jindan from other states who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to instigate and poach people to have their plans thwarted.
Zi Zhuzi was shocked when she heard the news. She looked at Yu Lie in confusion and thought to herself:
"Good fellow! Are these two playing a double act?"
Looking at the large gap in Purple Mountain that was cut by Yu Lie, Zi Zhuzi could not help stamping his feet and cursing in pain:
"These two people who are against the times and want to chop off their heads only dare to vent their anger on my Zishan!"
After getting angry for a while, she simply stopped looking after Yu Lie and went back to the Zijing Taoist Temple.
And now in front of the stone table.
Although Yu Lie confined himself in the white fog and outsiders could not see anything, he could see and hear everything outside the fog clearly, even including what was happening in Qianzhou Daocheng.
"Are you singing a duet?"
At this moment, Yu Lie's face did not show a smug look as Zi Zhuzi had guessed, but instead he showed a bitter smile.
His eyes kept changing, and he kept asking himself the same question:
Is what the Lord of Heaven said true?
In fact, Heishuizi was not the only one who doubted the truthfulness of what the Great Heavenly Master said and believed that the other party was deceiving him.
Yu Lie himself was the one who doubted all this the most among everyone!
But, “it’s hard to go against God’s will”!
When facing the Great Celestial Lord in person, Yu Liellian's thoughts could be eavesdropped on by the other party. If he did not have the aura of beheading immortals, he would have no secrets at all. How could he dare to question the other party in front of him?
Even after leaving the Great Heavenly Venerable, Yu Lie did not dare to speak of this matter in front of Zi Zhuzi and others.
After all, he has the immortal-slaying aura to protect him, but the others do not. He cannot guarantee that his conversation with them will not be eavesdropped by the Great Celestial Venerable or leaked afterwards.
Only Heishuizi was really bold. He not only dared to speak, but also dared to curse. He even cursed out such extremely outrageous words as "As long as the saints are alive, the thieves will not stop."
In the thick fog, Yu Lie could only sigh in a voice that he himself could not hear:
"Master, Senior Brother, if you were still here..."
