"Mm, chains?"

While Xue Lingshang’s mind wavered, one chain had already wrapped around his left arm.

The faint cyan light immediately brought a burning sensation to his arm.

"Demon-Suppressing Chains?!"

"This is a demon-sealing formation?!!"

Without another word, Xue Lingshang condensed a blood-colored blade light in his right hand and cut the chain.

When he looked up, six chains were already swimming toward him, and the one he had just severed followed closely behind.

A second-rank peak demon-sealing formation—if the seven chains wrapped around him, then even if he were not sealed, with his demonic path cultivation art, he would not be able to display even half his strength.

"You actually predicted things to such a degree beforehand."

"A lion uses all its strength even to fight a rabbit, much less when you are the lion, Senior, and my Jianyi family is only a soft little white rabbit."

Afterward, Wentian transmitted, "Moyue, do not push too urgently. I will go find another helper and make this even steadier."

"A mere thing that has just entered Golden Core, and he is trapped in a demon-sealing formation. Why would this seat need another helper?" Moyue replied.

"This kind of person can be extremely decisive once pushed into a corner. If a Golden Core cultivator explodes inside the formation, even if you do not die, you will likely be heavily injured, perhaps even fall in realm again."

Moyue thought for a moment. "Fine. I will follow your arrangement."

Wentian immediately left.

When Xue Lingshang discovered this, while continuously forcing back the incoming Demon-Suppressing Chains, he tried to tempt Moyue. "A grand third-rank flood dragon, a powerful expert of the demonic race, is actually being driven by a Foundation Establishment human.

"Does Your Excellency not feel ashamed?"

Moyue did not speak.

Xue Lingshang continued, "Your Excellency Moyue, regardless of what the Jianyi family promised you, I will give you ten times that. How about it?

"What a Golden Core cultivator can do far surpasses a Foundation Establishment cultivator."

"Ten times?"

Moyue did not mind teasing Xue Lingshang. "Do you know what the Jianyi family promised me?"

"Your Excellency Moyue, please speak freely."

Not long after Wentian left, the Zhao family ancestor arrived at the Dongxi clan land together with the Black Cloud Spirit Leopard.

"So this is Dongxi, the Jianyi clan’s main branch land?" the Zhao family ancestor said. "It is indeed a remote place."

The Black Cloud Spirit Leopard said, "Little Zhao, there is not the slightest aura of a great battle here. Did you get tricked?"

He knew the Jianyi family had a third-rank flood dragon. If even that flood dragon encountered danger, then he probably would not be of much help if he came.

"Daoist Jianyi would not fail to understand the importance of matters to this degree," the Zhao family ancestor said. "Lord Black Leopard, please spread your divine sense and see whether you can discover anything."

"Fine."

The Black Cloud Spirit Leopard spread out his divine sense. Before long, he discovered Foundation Establishment aura coming from above the mountain forest behind the Jianyi clan land.

"He is over there."

The Black Cloud Spirit Leopard brought the Zhao family ancestor to find Wentian.

"Daoist Jianyi," the Zhao family ancestor said.

"Daoist Zhao, you have arrived."

When Wentian saw the Black Cloud Spirit Leopard, he thought that the Zhao family had indeed not disappointed him.

The Zhao family ancestor said, "Daoist Jianyi, we came here and do not seem to have discovered any signs of battle in your Jianyi family..."

Wentian did not conceal it either, smiling faintly. "The one who came is Great Jin’s newly advanced Golden Core cultivator, the Xue family ancestor. Facing a Golden Core cultivator, how could I dare let him fight freely in my Jianyi family’s clan land?

"Would that not bring destruction upon all living beings?"

"The Xue family ancestor, Xue Lingshang?!" The Zhao family ancestor’s expression was incomparably shocked. "Then where is he now?"

"He has been trapped by my demon-sealing formation."

"A second-rank demon-sealing formation can trap a Golden Core cultivator?"

"Naturally not. But with a helper interfering from the side, it is not so easy for him to escape."

The Zhao family ancestor’s expression shifted uncertainly. After pondering briefly, he said, "Daoist Jianyi, you asked my Zhao family to come because you want to drive Xue Lingshang away?"

"No. Today, this Jianyi wants to slaughter a Golden Core!"

"This Jianyi will slaughter a Golden Core today!"

When the Zhao family ancestor heard this, shock appeared on his face, and buzzing rang endlessly in his ears.

He looked at Wentian in disbelief. "Could it be that this old man has grown too old, and tinnitus has caused me to hear things?"

"Daoist Jianyi, say that again. What are you going to do?"

Wentian did not know whether to laugh or cry. "The two of you, come with me. I will slowly explain this Jianyi’s plan to you on the road."

Deep within the Broken Tooth Mountain Range.

Where the Seven Stars Demon-Sealing Formation was located.

"A million blood food, ten human Golden Cores, and heavenly treasures that aid in breaking through to the fourth rank?!"

Hearing this, Xue Lingshang said coldly, "Moyue, are you joking with me?"

"Haha, you do have a bit of intelligence. You actually saw through it." Moyue’s vertical pupils were filled with ridicule. "This seat is toying with you. What will you do?

"Come bite me?"

After hearing too much of Wentian’s trash talk, Moyue had unconsciously been influenced. His verbal combat strength was also far from ordinary.

Xue Lingshang was so angry his vision went black. His face turned from deathly pale to iron-blue, then suddenly to dark purple, just like a fully pickled pig liver.

"You use a Blood Dao secret art to cling to life and luckily form your core, yet you want to compare yourself with Wentian? You cannot even compare to the dirt under his fingernail."

Moyue raised his dragon claw, glanced at it, then felt something was wrong and said, "Not my fingernail. Mine is too big and not suitable for you. Just compare yourself to your own fingernail."

The damage was not great, but the humiliation was extreme!

"Die!"
