Chapter 2666 - 545:
No, before killing them, first cut out all of their tongues. Aren’t they fond of talking? Let’s see how they manage that without tongues!
After remembering these people, he turned his head and continued moving forward. Today is the day when the Great Teachings recruit disciples. Although many Immortals are present here, and his Ancestral Elder is powerful, being at the Peak Earthly Immortal Realm, he knows it’s better to remain low-key. His Ancestral Elder also doesn’t wish for others to know about their relationship.
Of course, after joining the Fu Dong Sect, the Ancestral Elder will find a way to become his master. When the time comes, it’s perfectly normal for a master to take special care of their disciple, isn’t it?
Just as he was about to walk to the side of his Ancestral Elder, suddenly a voice sounded from behind him.
"Wait..."
Cao Zhonghua unexpectedly stepped out from the crowd and spoke.
Opposite him, Liu Hongyi saw someone speaking up and instantly showed displeasure on his face, yet, given the current situation, he patiently said, "Do not rush, the mortals behind will soon get their turn."
"No, you’re mistaken," Cao Zhonghua shook his head as he spoke, "I do not intend to undertake the test."
As the words fell, the crowd around was momentarily stunned. Every mortal gathered here wants to take the test, aiming to become a Cultivator. He has waited here for half a day but says he doesn’t want to take the test. What is he planning to do? Has he gone mad?
Moreover, he’s facing a Cultivator yet speaks casually and equally with a powerful Cultivator. How dare he?
Liu Kui saw the man who spoke, and a murderous intent shot from his eyes, entirely unshielded. This guy must have overheard the conversation between him and Li Wan’er and plans to expose him.
He’s courting death!
Exposing him?
The man thinks that people will listen to him once he speaks? Doesn’t he see what a formidable existence his Ancestral Elder is?
Even if he publicly exposes him, he’ll still manage to join the Fu Dong Sect as a regular Cultivator.
But, the Ancestral Elder will definitely blame him for causing this trouble by failing to remain low-key.
This brat is simply causing trouble!
He must die!
He won’t wait until he joins a Great Teaching; no, before leaving Yi River City, he shall kill him!
Cao Zhonghua, however, seemed to be entirely unfazed by the attention on him or the murderous glance from Liu Kui, continuing forward as he spoke to Liu Hongyi: "What I meant by ’wait’ was not addressed to you, but to the other two from the Fu Dong Sect. Don’t you notice how similar Liu Hongyi and Liu Kui look? Has it ever crossed your mind what relationship they might share? Such as Liu Hongyi being Liu Kui’s Ancestral Elder?"
As his words dropped, Liu Hongyi’s face turned cold, while those around quickly turned their gaze to the two, discovering that they really did look alike!
Beside Liu Hongyi, a Fu Dong Sect Cultivator became instantly grim upon hearing this, shouting loudly, "How dare you call our Elder’s name directly!"
Cao Zhonghua replied with a puzzled look, "Why? Aren’t names meant to be called? If not his name, then what should I call him?"
"Impudent!" The Cultivator who had just spoken showed a flash of anger and raised his hand, seemingly preparing to make a move, but suddenly recalled the current rules in the Eastern Province—Cultivators are prohibited from attacking mortals casually.
The mortal before him merely called Elder Liu by name, which isn’t much of an offense. Should he act out against this mortal, he would face punishment!
These rules...
What ridiculous rules!
He cursed inwardly, then looked around at the constables, shouting, "Where are the guards? Is this how you maintain order?"
Nearby, the constables heard this. Despite feeling dissatisfied with the questioning tone, they turned around nonetheless, preparing to capture the young man who seemed to be causing trouble, yet somehow wasn’t.
But before they could act, the young man before them suddenly flew up.
Fly?
He can fly?
No mortal can fly! Only Cultivators have the ability to fly!
Is he a Cultivator then?
If he is a Cultivator, why is he lingering among the crowd, even queuing alongside everyone?
Liu Kui was also stunned—this man can fly?
If he’s a Cultivator, he should know the power of an existence at the Peak Earthly Immortal Realm, and he wouldn’t dare offend his Ancestral Elder.
Liu Hongyi was bewildered—how could there be a hidden Cultivator here, what’s going on? Despite simply flying, not unleashing full combat power, judging by the aura shown, the other party isn’t weak at all.
This person, what is he planning!
Astonished, he hurriedly called out, "Dao Companion, from which Great Teaching or Sect did you come, why are you hiding among the crowd?"
Cao Zhonghua didn’t directly answer Liu Hongyi, but looked afar and spoke, "Uncle Zhu Yan, could I borrow the Earth Observing Mirror for a moment?"
