Dong Qitian felt as if the new generation was replacing the old. The Residence of Nine Supremes already had the cornerstone of its prosperity, and its glory was only a matter of time!
"I, Dong Qitian, was reborn by my master when I was young. Then, I followed a master and cultivated in a sacred cultivation ground with rich spiritual Qi. I was initiated at the age of three, initiated at the age of five, Jade Mystic at the age of nine, Earth Mystic at the age of ten, Heaven Mystic at the age of eleven, Immortal Mystic at the age of fifteen, and Supreme at the age of eighteen … My master praised me as one of the rare prodigies in the Bound of Universe since the beginning of time …"
"Compared to the Residence of Nine Supremes now … I've actually fallen to the level of eating dust at the bottom when I faced these little fellows my age back then. It's intolerable, but even if I can't take it anymore, I still have to endure it …"
Dong Qitian looked up at the sky, utterly speechless.
'I … I'm also a top-notch expert who can shake the world with a stomp of my feet …'
'Argh!'
…
Compared to Dong Qitian's gloominess and negative energy, the Demiurge-Flawed Ten were even worse. After more than twenty hours, each of them was exhausted like a bunch of dead dogs.
When they finally reached this level, they did not even have the time to greet Yun Yang before circulating the last bit of their remaining mystical Qi and returning to their respective peaks to rest.
This rest was not meditation but sleep – the most extreme form of deep sleep!
The exhaustion was truly exhausting. This was what it meant to be hollowed out of one's body!
If they forced themselves to meditate, it would only cause further damage to their bodies. It was better to let their bodily functions adjust and recover naturally for a period of time before restoring their mystical Qi.
Yun Yang strolled out of the main peak's hall and was greeted by Dong Qitian's gaze as if he was an immortal.
The look in Dong Qitian's eyes was complicated and unpredictable.
Shock, disbelief, doubt, dream-like hallucinations, and … a sense of regret that he could not bear to recall the past.
"Elder Dong, it's all thanks to the spiritual medicine you've refined that the Residence of Nine Supremes' junior disciples could achieve a significant breakthrough this time."
Yun Yang laughed. He was in a good mood, so he flattered Dong Qitian.
In fact, it was not entirely flattery. The combination of the five medicines below the Emerald Cloud Pill that Dong Qitian had provided was extremely potent, and the refining method was unique as well. It was an eye-opener for Yun Yang. His praise came from the bottom of his heart. He was amazed, and he was not lying.
"…" The corners of Dong Qitian's mouth twitched a few times, speechless for a moment.
"Elder Dong, don't be fooled by my calm expression. I'm just pretending to be calm. I'm more worried than anyone else!"
Yun Yang sighed for a long time. "I'm constantly worried that the twenty to thirty percent chance that Elder Dong mentioned will happen. If it really happens, won't I die of heartache? It's all thanks to Elder Dong's elixir this time. It's really … too awesome; it's completely compatible with the disciples' physiques … Not a single one of them was lost, hahaha … "
Hmm … these words were completely insincere and nonsensical. No matter how sincere they looked, they were just acting for the sake of the Best Actor Award. Deep down, they were all pretentious!
Dong Qitian was speechless.
"For the Residence of Nine Supremes to have the Celestial Luck Banner in the future … Elder Dong's hard work is unparalleled!" Yun Yang said gratefully.
"According to Leader Supreme, does this mean that the disciples' successful breakthrough today is all thanks to me?" The corners of Dong Qitian's mouth twitched for a long time before he finally spoke. However, every sound and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the gaps between his teeth.
"Of course."
"Leader Supreme Yun, let's not beat around the bush. Did you really not do anything?"
"Me? I … of course I did. I'm a guardian! I've been guarding them all the time, paying full attention … Really, I didn't even move a finger. I was so focused, so meticulous. "Yun Yang laughed.
"I'm full of energy now. I'm not tired at all. I feel like I can flatten a mountain …"
Dong Qitian chuckled and said disdainfully, "You don't have to push. You can flatten a mountain with your mouth."
"You're too kind. You're flattering me. I don't deserve this. Hahaha …"
Dong Qitian finally exploded. He grabbed Yun Yang and dragged him into the hall, his eyes glaring like bells. "Young fellow, tell me honestly … What did you do? Otherwise, I'll strip you naked and walk around the square outside. Do you think I wouldn't dare to do it? "
His words had caught Yun Yang's weak spot in an instant.
I'm the sect leader!
You want me to run around naked in front of all the disciples?
Are you kidding me?
Of all people, the one who said this was Dong Qitian. Not only did he dare to do it, but he also had the ability to put it into action. According to Yun Yang's assessment of the old man, even if his Endless Divine Art had another breakthrough, his Destiny Blade had improved, and his ability had leaped across realms like the other disciples … he would probably still not be a match for one of his hands!
The gap between them was so wide!
"Hmph!" Yun Yang said angrily, "A man can be killed but not humiliated. Do you think I'm someone who can be coerced into submission? However, President Dong is my residence's guest. If you really want to know, it's not impossible … "
Dong Qitian said, "Just tell me your conditions!"
Yun Yang was extremely wary of Dong Qitian, and the latter knew Yun Yang very well as well. He knew Yun Yang's character very well when they first met, so he made it very clear.
"Since Elder Dong knows that the Emerald Cloud Pill's five medicinal herbs didn't come from you, then it shouldn't be counted as a task. Does Elder Dong agree?"
Dong Qitian nodded. "Of course, my role in the success of the medicine this time is indeed insignificant. It's fine if it's not counted as a task!"
Yun Yang said, "Since Elder Dong has said so, then you've only completed two tasks now. Besides … you haven't even finished the first task …"
Dong Qitian rolled his eyes and said, "Deal!"
Yun Yang chuckled and said, "Actually, the reason why all the disciples succeeded today is extremely simple … Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Elder Dong's few words of guidance that allowed me to react in advance. That's why there are so many fruits of my labor today!"
Dong Qitian was very knowledgeable and experienced. He understood it instantly and said in surprise, "You're saying that when I mentioned that Hu Xiaofan could ignore the side effects of the five medicinal herbs and break through safely, you imitated him to deal with today's situation?"
Yun Yang was pleased with himself. "Elder Dong is Elder Dong indeed. You've seen through my train of thought in an instant. Although it's not right, it's not far …"
Dong Qitian snorted coldly. "Bullsh * t, bullsh * t! So what if you've heard me expose Hu Xiaofan's unique foundation? Don't tell me you can find seventy-four Spiritual Root Marrow-plucking Fruits and let all the disciples attain the innate spiritual marrow. What's more, even if you really managed to get enough Spiritual Root Marrow-plucking Fruits, it's still not enough to make all the disciples achieve what they have now … It looks like you're not going to tell the truth. Do you really think your father won't dare to skin you?"
