But he still lost the bet …
The words were spoken like the wind. Even if he regretted it, it was too late.
The other party's invitation could be considered as a form of courtesy, or it could even be considered as a form of urging. But if the other party were to directly ask you to fulfill the terms of the bet … wouldn't it be shameful if you refused?
Shi Wuchen looked resigned to his fate. "A gentleman keeps his word. Since I've admitted defeat myself, of course, I won't go back on my word. However, Lord Sect Leader, what kind of position will you give me after I join the sect? Isn't the title of Grand Elder too perfunctory? "
Yun Yang coughed and said, "Our Residence of Nine Supremes isn't just for show. As the name suggests, we need nine superiors. What do you think of one?"
Shi Wuchen mumbled, "That's more like it … What kind of Supreme are you?"
Yun Yang replied, "My surname is Yun. Naturally, I'm Supreme Cloud."
Shi Wuchen said excitedly, "Great, great, great! Then, from today onwards, I'm Supreme Shi?!"
"Shi Zun …"
Yun Yang spat it out, choking. He coughed repeatedly, his face flushed.
Shi Wuchen stared blankly for a moment before realization dawned on him. He grimaced and said, "That doesn't sound good … It's very inelegant. It's very easy to misunderstand, isn't it?"
"Cough, cough, cough …" Yun Yang coughed hard, thinking to himself, "You are not just easily misunderstood, you will definitely misunderstand!"
Sh * t Supreme!
Big brother, are you trying to disgust me? If one of the Nine Supremes is Supreme Shit, I'd rather you don't join us. Aren't you being too generous?
"You're a famous swordsman. Let's call you Supreme Sword," Yun Yang suggested hurriedly, ignoring the fact that he might have plagiarized the name of Venerable Lord Sword from the Four Seasons Tower.
Shi Wuchen said hesitantly, "But this … doesn't sound good either …"
"Supremacy Despicable … He's not much stronger than Supremacy Shitty …"
Yun Yang was speechless. "What do you plan to call yourself then? Your surname is Shi, there's nothing I can do about it. You practice swordsmanship, there's nothing I can do about it. What else can you do? They have to live up to their name and have a purpose, right? "
Shi Wuchen probed, "How about … I'll be ranked second under you. You'll be the Lead Venerable One, and I'll be the Second Venerable One?"
Yun Yang's eyes narrowed at once. "Supreme Supreme? Two Venerables? Do you really think … 'Second Venerable' sounds better than 'Venerable Sword'? "
Shi Wuchen was at a loss. "But …"
Yun Yang said, "Why don't you call yourself Supreme Sword? You used to be called Swordsman, but now you're called Revered Scum. People who hear you will only think that you've leveled up. That's enough. If you insist too much, you'll only become more unruly. What else do you want? "
Shi Wuchen looked helpless. "Forget it, forget it, Supreme Sword it is then …"
Suddenly, he sighed deeply and said, "This, reincarnation is really a technical job … If I had been born into a family with another surname, I wouldn't be in such a dilemma today …"
Yun Yang snorted, "Supreme Sword is still stronger than Supreme Shit, isn't it? However, if you really mind it too much, you can take a knife and cut your own throat. You'll have another chance, and I can keep the position I promised you for another eighteen years. "
Shi Wuchen rolled his eyes.
He felt that his new sect master's mouth was really … speechless.
Shi Wuchen swore to the heavens, pledged his loyalty, and joined the Residence of Nine Supremes. The shadow of a white flag circled around his body before returning to Yun Yang. The ceremony was considered complete.
It was getting dark.
"Sect Master, where shall we rest tonight?"
"Over there … there seems to be a cave. Let's rest there for the time being."
"…"
Yun Yang looked at Shi Wuchen, who had washed his face and returned to his clean and tidy appearance, and was once again surprised.
"So, your appearance is quite passable."
Shi Wuchen was speechless.
How was it just passable?
Shi Wuchen, the Great Swordsman Shi, was definitely a handsome man.
He was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a square face, a high nose bridge, thick lips, and single-eyelid eyes, which made his gaze seem even colder and sharper. He was tall and straight, only a little shorter than Yun Yang.
He was dressed in a fitted green robe, making him look even more valiant and dignified.
In terms of bearing and demeanor alone, he was above Yun Xiaoyao and Bai Yixue … His cultivation base was even more so, as he could not compete with the two of them!
After all, Shi Wuchen's true cultivation base was enough to make Yun Yang vanquish!
In the cave.
Shi Wuchen was still sighing and sighing, feeling a little disheartened, as if he had boarded a pirate ship and his future was bleak.
However, all the negative emotions vanished instantly when he witnessed Yun Yang setting up the mountain guarding formation with his own eyes.
Under his gaze, Yun Yang sprinkled pieces of purple crystals here and there before planting them into the formation flags. One hundred and eight formation flags landed on the ground one after another.
The last formation flag, together with the last piece of purple crystal, landed on the centermost square.
However, the unique purple crystals disappeared without a trace the moment the formation flags were completed.
As the foundation of the formation was completed, the entire mountain began to tremble, as if it was shrinking. The power of countless earth veins began to gather beneath his feet from all directions.
The sky was filled with sparkling stars, shining brightly at the same time. The sea of stars shone brilliantly. In an instant, the peak where the Residence of Nine Supremes was located was engulfed in an atmosphere of rising white fog. One could not even see their fingers in front of them, and their deific senses could not extend far.
Following that, spiritual Qi from thousands of miles around swarmed over and gathered at the nine peaks.
The gathering of spiritual Qi lasted for the entire night.
The next morning.
"Alright." Yun Yang heaved a sigh of relief. "The foundation of this formation is complete. It's enough for the initial use."
"Is this the legendary Heavenly Stellar Formation that has been lost for a long time?" Shi Wuchen asked with a face full of respect.
"Venerable Sword, you think too highly of me. This formation gathers energy from the starlight of the sky, but it's still far from the real Heavenly Stellar Formation." Yun Yang smiled. "I name it the Five Elemental Yin Yang Starlight Formation!"
"This formation gathers the power of the five elements, transforms Yin and Yang, gathers the power of the stars, gathers the Qi of the earth veins from all directions, and guides the spiritual energy from thousands of miles into one place. This formation is the foundation of the Residence of Nine Supremes. It must not be destroyed! "
Yun Yang continued faintly, "Complemented by the energy provided by one hundred and eight crystals, it forms a self-defense mechanism. Although our Residence of Nine Supremes' mountain guarding formation is not as indestructible as the Heavenly Stellar Formation, it should be able to withstand a Saint Emperor's attack without suffering any damage."
"Saint Emperor!"
Shi Wuchen's eyes widened. "What did you use to set up the formation? How could it be so powerful? I need proof! "
Shi Wuchen had seen his fair share of mountain guarding formations, but this was the first time he had heard of one that worked as Yun Yang had described.
"It's just some of the rarer energy crystals. I brought them all from the place where I ascended," Yun Yang said lightly.
He thought to himself, 'If I were to tell the truth and say that I had used one hundred and eight Ethereal Amethysts to set up the formation … would this fellow faint?'
"I won't ask if you don't want to go into detail, but the spiritual Qi density in this mountain gate … isn't it a little too thick?" Shi Wuchen sniffled. "Even a sect with a lower-class Celestial Luck Banner might not be able to compare to us. This is just a newly established formation. After the formation runs for a long time, I'm afraid the spiritual energy will increase to another level …"
"This is the effect of the formation I've set up. This is far from the limit," Yun Yang said perfunctorily.
"I'm just letting you experience it first. I'll stop the spiritual Qi gathering function later and wait for Fatty to bring the others back. After all, we still have to build the sect's grand hall. When the grand hall is completed, we'll set up the formation to seal the mountain gate. "
"Today, the Residence of Nine Supremes has finally officially settled down in the Bound of Universe." Yun Yang was filled with emotions.
He would not know how difficult it was to survive in the Bound of Universe until he arrived. Now, however, he had finally taken the first step.
"What are we going to do next?" Shi Wuchen asked.
"Hmm, rob."
"Rob?" Shi Wuchen's tone changed instantly.
"You heard me right. Rob," Yun Yang said faintly, "In the Bound of Universe, robbing is a legal occupation. How can we not make use of it? As long as it passes through here, we rob it. If there's a condition, we rob it. If there's no condition here, we'll rob somewhere else. If there's no condition anywhere, we'll create the condition and still rob! "
Shi Wuchen was speechless.
Now, he finally knew for sure that he had really, really … boarded a pirate ship!
Robbery … although it was legal, all the consequences had to be borne by the person himself. How many people would he offend in the future once he started robbing?
Shi Wuchen's legs trembled at the thought of the overwhelming number of enemies coming to the Residence of Nine Supremes.
"Is it too late for me to back out now?" Shi Wuchen asked weakly.
"What do you think?"
Yun Yang gave him a sidelong glance. "If you're not afraid of heaven's wrath, just back out. You can come and go freely here."
Shi Wuchen lowered his head and inhaled deeply with endless remorse. His voice even sounded like he was about to cry. "It's a pity that I haven't had my revenge yet …"
Yun Yang rolled his eyes and left on his own.
"In the next three days, I'll do my best to help you recover from your injuries. After that, we'll begin our operation! You're a Saint level cultivator, the top expert of our sect. Naturally, you'll be the leader of our sect's first operation! "
This time, Shi Wuchen really wanted to cry but had no tears to shed.
'I'm actually the first scapegoat …'
