After a long laugh, Dong Qitian began to sob again.
From an influential figure who had dominated the world, he had fallen overnight and become a prisoner for many years. The feeling was indescribable. Without experiencing it personally, no words could describe it.
Through his teary eyes, he saw that Yun Yang was still raising his saber and slashing at the stone pillars that imprisoned him, as well as the ones that were buried on both sides of the stone walls …
Clang, clang, clang …
"Child, what are you doing?"
"Cough, the quality of this Celestial Cotton Gold is really good. I'm getting all of them and bringing them back. If I leave them behind, wouldn't I be returning empty-handed from a treasure mountain?"
"Ah …"
"This is nothing. You said that the platform below is the Spirit-Sealing Platform. Of course, it's good stuff too. Bring it back as well!"
"It's understandable that you want to collect the Celestial Cotton Gold and the Spirit-Sealing Platform, but who would dig the pillars like you? Why are you so meticulous? Are you embroidering? Or do you have a lot of time to waste?"
"What are you talking about? The four pillars in these four stone walls are obviously not ordinary items. Otherwise, they would have been destroyed by you when you were trying to break free from the Celestial Cotton Gold. Since it's good stuff, of course, I have to bring it back. You really don't know how expensive things are until you're in charge."
"As a sect leader, I'm even poorer now …"
"This …"
Yun Yang's eyes were sharp.
He could vaguely see a few words carved on a section of the chain made of Celestial Cotton Gold that was hidden in the stone wall at the end of the chain.
This was the clue.
Of course, he had to bring it back. If they came looking for him … if he was no match for them, he could just give the chain away. 'Returning it to its rightful owner, I'm only keeping it safe for senior …'
Since the item was returned to its rightful owner, could he temporarily calm down and quell his anger? Perhaps … he could pull some connections and work together …
The calculations in Yun Yang's mind were loud and clear.
Of course, he could not let Dong Qitian know of his thoughts …
Boom!
Dong Qitian watched as Yun Yang kept everything into his space before the entire mountain suddenly collapsed. The pillars were probably the load-bearing objects of this hollow mountain.
Amidst the smoke, the two of them flashed out.
Dong Qitian's body was still drenched in blood as he grumbled, "Aren't you being too hasty? This cave is entirely supported by those few pillars. If all of them were to rush in like this, the formation will melt. How can the cave still exist?"
Yun Yang glanced at him and asked in surprise, "Haven't you had enough of this place? Does he still have the intention to stay here? If you really had such intentions, you should have said so earlier! "
Dong Qitian breathed in the fresh air outside and stared at the bright sky. For a moment, he felt refreshed and lost in thought, so he did not hear what Yun Yang was saying.
He stood at the peak of the mountain for a long, long time, facing the sun. Finally, tears streamed down his face, but he suddenly burst into laughter and roared into the sky, "I, Dong Qitian! He was out! He's out! "
"I'm out!"
"Hahahahaha … Xuanhuang World! Dear opponents, I'm coming out! Did you hear that?! "
After a long, long time, he finally regained his composure. He turned abruptly to look at Yun Yang, his gaze deep. Abruptly, he bowed to the ground. "Brother Yun! I'll never forget your kindness in this lifetime! "
Yun Yang was stunned. He had just waved his hand, but before he could say anything, Dong Qitian had already straightened up and said with a chuckle, "I'll only say these words of gratitude once in this lifetime."
Then, Dong Qitian howled into the sky. Amidst the loud howl, Yun Yang saw that the wounds all over his body were slowly healing. Fresh flesh was wriggling and growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, covering the many bloody holes on his body in a short amount of time.
Even Yun Yang himself had to sigh in awe at such a speed of recovery.
As his wounds healed, Dong Qitian shook his head. More than ninety percent of his long hair, which was hundreds of feet long, was cut off with a whoosh. The rest was coiled around his head. With a casual swipe of his hand, his beard was cut off at the root. The dust and dirt that covered his body were immediately separated from his body and fell off.
Seeing this, Yun Yang thought that Dong Qitian's tidying up should have come to an end. He did not expect to see him exhale, and suddenly, the entire sky was filled with spiritual Qi and wind. With a clap of thunder, a heavy downpour came as if it had been summoned.
Of course, Yun Yang did not care about the downpour of thunder and lightning. However, the downpour that Dong Qitian had conjured was peculiar. The rain was confined within a radius of a few feet, washing over Dong Qitian's body in a concentrated manner.
After a long, long time, a loud sound was heard. The clouds and rain dispersed, and the sky was lit up once more.
With a wave of his hand, a soft white robe was draped over Dong Qitian's body. From the inside out, he was covered in snow.
There was even a pair of boots made of mystical beast skin on his feet. Be it the clothes or the shoes, they all looked rather ancient.
Yun Yang sighed as he watched. It had only been a quarter of an hour, but the person before him had transformed from a battered and severely injured prisoner into a well-built middle-aged man with a graceful bearing!
Now that he looked at Dong Qitian again, he was tall and slender, about a head and a half taller than him. His long legs stood straight on the ground, as if he was going to propel his muscular body into the starry sky!
His brows were thick, and his eyes were deep. His white robe fluttered in the wind, and there was a faint aura of a ruler descending upon the mortal realm in his movements.
'Looks like this person was most likely a rare hero before he was imprisoned!'
Yun Yang thought to himself.
Dong Qitian's loud howl had already traveled far away. Silhouettes could be seen moving from afar, flying towards them. It was obvious that they were here to see who had caused such a commotion.
Looking at their attire, Yun Yang guessed that they were … from Cangwu Union?
Dong Qitian stood on the peak with his arms behind his back. His white robe fluttered as he stared coldly at the four silhouettes flying towards him.
As the four of them approached, their speed became slower and slower. They were probably hesitating if they should really come closer, so they finally stopped.
After all, the cultivation base of the person who had let out the howl was too terrifying …
Just as they were hesitating if they should retreat, there was a sudden swoosh. All the trees within a thousand feet between the four of them, Dong Qitian, and Yun Yang had been uprooted and floated away in unison.
At this point, there was no longer anything that could obstruct their vision. Both sides could see each other clearly from afar.
It was obvious that the person on the other side was annoyed that the forest was blocking their vision. With a wave of his hand, he had gotten rid of everything like a knife.
'Hmm, I want to see you face to face.' 'You want to hide?'
'Why don't you try?'
The four people on the other side were dumbfounded as if they had been struck by lightning.
The trees, forests, and even the hills that they had relied on to conceal themselves had all disappeared in an instant. There was no time to react at all.
