Starting With 100 Million Lives

In Brother Cheng’s eyes, the group of Daoist Venerables across was really just tools for delivering Rule Enlightenment.

He felt neither sympathy nor softness toward them.

Now that he had the upper hand, if the roles were reversed, who knows what the other side would do.

Moreover, Daoist Venerable Lin Jing, the sect leader of Mowu Sect, was his ally, and their stance was predetermined from the start.

"Weren’t you in a hurry before?"

"Why do I now have to push you?"

"Hey, you! Yes, you, step up!"

Pointing, he singled out Daoist Venerable Ao Xiao, as the latter looked the most imposing.

All eyes naturally focused on Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable when he was pointed at directly in the face.

But he remained unmoved.

After all, life was more important.

However, the people around him weren’t so polite.

Especially Daoist Venerable Zhiyan, his expression was full of schadenfreude.

Didn’t you refuse to fight? Now that they named you, what will you do?

As for Daoist Venerable Lin Jing on the other side, he was overjoyed.

Sect Leader Jiang really had an eye; he picked the person I hate the most.

"Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable, you threatened us last time, saying we should wait. We’ve been eagerly waiting for you!"

"Now, don’t you think it’s time to show some initiative?"

"We can’t wait forever, can we? Hahaha..."

Beside him, Lu Wen Guardian quickly advised him to be cautious.

"Sect Leader, Ao Xiao does have a Daoist Saint backing him, best not to offend him too much."

"Why are you chickening out?"

Daoist Venerable Lin Jing glared: "With Sect Leader Jiang on your side, why so timid and indecisive?"

Nearby, the Three-Eyed Tiger also sneered.

"Even with Brother Cheng here, you don’t dare to show off, how can you ever have a future?"

Lu Wen Daoist Venerable was speechless.

Your tone makes it sound like Sect Leader Jiang is the top expert in the Primordial Immortal Realm. Can you be more reliable?

The Mowu Sect disciples behind him didn’t care that much.

They had been downcast recently, and now they were being mocked face-to-face, having endured for so long they were beyond frustrated.

Now that Brother Cheng was turning the tides, they were nearly moved to tears with excitement.

With Sect Leader Lin Jing leading the boasting, shouldn’t the others follow suit?

"Old thief Ao Xiao, don’t be a coward!"

"Sect Leader Jiang named you, it’s inappropriate to just stand there!"

"Yeah, don’t keep Elder Jiang waiting!"

They knew that Ao Xiao was initially their ally but now stood with the enemy, leaving no room for pleasantries.

This made it impossible for Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable to maintain his composure.

He was someone accustomed to being arrogant and high-handed, when had he ever been so humiliated?

"How dare you!"

He cast a fierce glance at everyone present, as if to remember every face for future reckoning.

"Don’t forget, trouble comes from the mouth!"

The eerie warning indeed silenced the crowd, and many disciples showed fear.

This was a threat from a Daoist Venerable, and Ao Xiao was known for his vengeful nature, no one dared to underestimate the consequences.

After silencing the crowd, he slowly flew into the sky, disdainfully snorting again.

Finally, he flew to the center of the arena and landed in front of Jiang Cheng.

After waiting so long, someone finally stepped up to fight, and Brother Cheng felt like he had been waiting so long his hair was turning white.

Eagerly, he drew his sword, ready to give Ao Xiao a comprehensive set of moves.

Ao Xiao was startled and quickly stepped back.

He then furrowed his brow in disbelief.

"You dare to kill me?"

Hearing his questioning, Brother Cheng was also puzzled.

"Why not? Can you not be killed?"

"You don’t know who I am?"

"Are you famous?"

Ao Xiao’s face quickly darkened.

This guy knows nothing, does he?

"My master is Yuan Ke Daoist Saint."

He made no detours, directly flaunting his biggest card.

Because this card was indeed very effective.

He had participated in many challenges, and whether he won or not, no one dared to take his life.

Previously in the Blood Demon Dao, he had walked away unscathed because they didn’t want to provoke his master, not because he was so strong himself.

Daoist Saints were too powerful. Who dared disrespect them?

Hearing this absurd statement, Brother Cheng almost laughed.

The implication was, after killing a Daoist Venerable, perhaps a Daoist Saint would deliver spoils to him?

Why didn’t you say so earlier?

Had I known, I would have been even more motivated.

Among the crowd, Fan Lei Daoist Venerable also rolled his eyes helplessly.

Daoist Saints are powerful, but can someone of this rank really intimidate that guy?

After all, he had killed the Son of the Celestial Emperor in front of everyone.

Laughable, does a Daoist Saint’s threat surpass that of the Celestial Emperor?

Knowing the other side had a strong backing, Brother Cheng was in a good mood.

He couldn’t help but confirm.

"Are you really a disciple of a Daoist Saint?"

Hearing this question, Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable thought he had finally instilled fear.

Yes, this is the rhythm he was used to.

His chin habitually lifted.

"What do you think?"

"How many disciples does your master have? If you were killed, would he really avenge you?"

This question was unbearable for Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable.

What does that mean?

Are you hoping to kill me without consequences?

He didn’t directly answer Brother Cheng’s question, instead asking in return.

"When I was still Supreme, someone dealt me a heavy blow in a challenge. Do you know what happened to that person?"

"What happened?"

"He and his sect have both disappeared."

"Your master’s doing?"

"What do you think?"

Brother Cheng was curious.

"A challenge is supposed to be one-on-one, how did they annihilate a sect?"

This was the one aspect of the Duan Yang Dao that he found unsatisfactory.

The rules here were great, defeating an enemy in a challenge offered extra rewards, and those challenged couldn’t refuse.

The problem was, it was one-on-one, making it inefficient.

"You don’t even understand this?"

Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable completely let go of his initial fear and wariness, he even felt a bit contemptuous of Jiang Cheng.

This kid seems to know nothing.

Too ignorant.

"I would love to hear more." Brother Cheng smiled humbly and asked.

Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable sneered coldly: "Prepare a bunch of Challenge Orders, can’t you challenge multiple people at once? Tokens aren’t exactly rare treasures."

So that’s how it is.

Brother Cheng indicated that he learned something useful.

So Daoist Saint Annihilation Sect means one person wielding thousands of Challenge Orders, challenging an entire sect in a sweeping coverage?

His last question was: "If I killed you, how soon would your master come to avenge you? Would he miss the opportunity for revenge due to being in seclusion? After all, I won’t stay long at Duan Yang Dao, worried he might not find me."

This guy was actually considering killing him?

Ao Xiao Daoist Venerable found this unforgivable!

If not for Brother Cheng’s formidable sword, he would have erupted on the spot.

"Are you daydreaming?"

"Still hoping to kill me and avoid revenge?"

"Such wishful thinking is foolish, you’d better wise up..."
