Starting With 100 Million Lives

Under the assistance of Celestial Venerable Han Qi, the five masters and the following Emperor Pill Masters finally understood what had happened.

"Outrageous!" Liuyuan was so angry he was blowing his beard and glaring.

Venerable Qing Ling slammed the table and stood up.

"How could such a thing happen?"

The other Emperor Pill Masters were even more enraged.

"Blaming others for their own mistakes and punishing the lower-level Immortal Officials so severely..."

"Just because Yue Yao has a low status and is easy to bully."

"Absurd, absolutely absurd!"

"Bi Ying’s crimes are heinous!"

"Utterly infuriating, how outrageous!"

To be honest, they hadn’t done such things themselves, but they had seen worse.

The reason they were so agitated and reacted so strongly was mainly because of Sect Leader Jiang.

This was something Sect Leader Jiang himself came forward to handle.

Thinking about someone ’bullying’ Sect Leader Jiang’s people, of course, they were furious.

"Can you guys handle this matter?"

Previously, Celestial Venerable Han Qi failed, so Brother Cheng wasn’t too assured now.

"I heard you have some three factions here..."

"Sect Leader Jiang, do you think so little of me?"

Liuyuan jumped out directly.

"This matter, what’s it to us?"

"Great!"

Yue Zhi and Bai Yan were overjoyed.

"Dear masters, when are we departing..."

"Depart?"

Liuyuan sneered: "As Third Grade Immortal Officials, if we make an entrance, shouldn’t he come out to kneel and welcome us?"

"Exactly!"

"Even if we don’t mind, with Sect Leader Jiang’s status, how dare he not welcome us?"

Qing Ling and Qing Huan and other masters rolled up their sleeves.

Each one summoned their Third Grade Official Seal.

"Someone, bring that scoundrel Bi Ying here at once to receive punishment!"

To these masters, Celestial Venerable Bi Ying, who could whimsically control Yue Yao’s fate, was just trash.

Easily crushed, easily dealt with.

Only a moment later, a man with a black beard, wearing a green robe and crown, rushed over in a tumble.

As soon as he arrived, he carefully clasped his hands in salute.

"Greetings to the five masters!"

"I don’t know why the masters summoned me here?"

Venerable Qing Huan shouted sternly: "Bi Ying, you scoundrel, such audacity!"

Including Celestial Venerable Han Qi, other Emperor Pill Masters pointed at this black-bearded man and roared loudly.

"Kneel down and confess!"

"Kneel down!"

"I say we might as well execute him!"

"Indeed, keeping this scourge only tarnishes the reputation of the Celestial Pill Department."

Seeing this scene, the just-arriving Celestial Venerable Bi Ying was scared out of his wits.

Although he wasn’t in the same faction as Liuyuan and Han Qi, Liuyuan and Qing Huan were Third Grade Immortal Officials!

Their status was far higher than his.

So many masters, if they really wanted to join forces to kill him, even if it escalated to the Law Enforcement Department, it would just be a case of collective impunity, with a light punishment.

The Celestial Palace wouldn’t execute a valuable Seventh-grade Emperor Pill Master for him.

"Spare me!"

He quickly crouched down submissively.

Not only did he kneel, but he also swiftly switched to crying profusely.

"Spare me, dear masters, what crime have I committed to deserve death?"

"I’m innocent..."

"Innocent, are you?"

Enraged, Celestial Venerable Han Qi kicked over.

If it were the usual times, would Celestial Venerable Bi Ying have let him kick him? He would have fought back immediately.

But facing so many Third and Fourth Grade Immortal Officials now, he dared not make a fuss.

He took the kick solidly, rolled a dozen times on the ground, his face bruised and swollen, without daring to get angry.

This scene made Yue Zhi and Bai Yan, who were watching from the side, feel a mix of emotions, almost bringing them to tears.

They also hated Celestial Venerable Bi Ying, but the status and rank difference was too great; not only could they not confront this person, they didn’t even dare to complain in private.

Celestial Venerable Han Qi’s kick was a relief for them.

"You despicable scoundrel, do you still remember Yue Yao?"

"Yue Yao?"

Feigning grievance, Celestial Venerable Bi Ying was stunned, and it took him several seconds to recall.

"Are you talking about that lowly servant Yue Yao under my command?"

"Lowly servant?"

"She is a formally appointed Ninth-grade Assistant Immortal Official by the Celestial Court, and you dare call her lowly!"

Several Immortal Officials were infuriated, almost unable to restrain themselves from beating him, if not for the fear of killing him on the spot.

"Fairy Yue Yao is so noble, and you dare to act against her?"

"Tell us, what did you do to her?"

"Hurry and bring her out!"

Celestial Venerable Bi Ying, huddled on the ground, was dumbfounded.

Yue Yao? Noble?

What a joke!

Isn’t she just an assistant responsible for stoking fire and injecting immortal power?

"You...you all are standing up for her?"

It wasn’t until now that he finally understood what was happening, and it felt utterly ridiculous to him.

Seeing the big scene, he initially thought he inadvertently committed some monumental mistake.

But that’s it?

Similar to Yue Yao’s Assistant Immortal Officials, he had more than thirty under his command, and he never treated these low-level officials as people.

Routinely beating and punishing them was something he never felt was wrong.

And it’s not just Yue Yao; under his Pill Array, there were still another four low-level Immortal Officials imprisoned, one for as long as a hundred thousand years.

"Surely not, she’s just a Ninth-grade..."

You higher-ranked Third and Fourth Grade Immortal Officials, making such a scene for a mere tool person?

Slap!

Celestial Venerable Liuyuan landed a firm slap on him.

It left Celestial Venerable Bi Ying dazed, his left cheek visibly swelling at a rapid pace.

"Blind fool!"

"What Ninth-grade, she belongs to Sect Leader Jiang!"

He pointed prominently at Brother Cheng.

"His people, you dare touch? I think you want to be torn to pieces!"

Dazed, Celestial Venerable Bi Ying glanced at Jiang Cheng standing before him and became even more bewildered.

Based on Celestial Venerable Liuyuan’s words, he thought Yue Yao had an extraordinarily terrifying background, backed by some incredibly significant figure.

Could she be the illegitimate daughter of a Divine Monarch or a distant relative of the Celestial Emperor?

Otherwise, how could several Seventh-grade Emperor Pill Masters collectively stand up for her?

But looking, Yue Yao’s ’backer’ was just an Emperor Realm Ninth Layer...

Even his Cultivation Realm was inferior to him, a Sixth-grade Emperor Alchemist.

Isn’t this nonsense?

These Seventh-grade Emperor Pill Masters making such a grand scene just because of such a person?

He simply couldn’t comprehend it!

"Alright, have him release her immediately!"

Brother Cheng, constrained by agreements, refrained from acting; otherwise, Bi Ying would have been dead by now.

While showing off was significant, to him, it was more crucial to release Yue Zhi’s sister promptly, preventing further suffering.

With sleeves rolled up, Han Qi and others shouted at Bi Ying.

"Did you hear?"

"Quickly lead the way!"

"Respectfully bring out your Granny Yue Yao!"

"Dare dilly-dally, and you’ll be flayed alive!"
