"So what if I'm famous for thousands of years? So what if I'm infamous for ten thousand years?" Li Tian asked instead of answering.
Wutian picked up the cup filled with wine and smelled it. He smiled and said, "Do you see this cup of wine? It's very thick, very strong, and very spicy. If it leaves the cup and spills into the air, it will gradually dilute and emit an intoxicating fragrance."
"I know what you're trying to say."
Li Tian smiled and said, "Life is like wine in a cup. It's full of flavors. It's not just about pursuing strength. There are many other things that can be done. However, Wutian, you have to admit that in today's world, no matter what you do, you have to have a strong backing. Otherwise, everything is just a dream."
"You're right. From the moment we stepped on the path of cultivation, strength is the way to go. However, there are many ways to pursue strength. If a person is confident enough, he can step into the ranks of the top experts in the world without relying on others!"
After drinking the wine in the cup, Wutian's blood seemed to have been ignited. For a moment, he was filled with lofty sentiments and his spirit pierced through the clouds!
"You make it sound nice. If you, Wutian, didn't have the help of the Flood Dragon Emperor and the Great Venerable, would you be able to achieve what you have today?" At this moment, a mocking voice came from afar.
"Whoosh!"
They looked over and saw a huge creature enter their vision. It was the Green Winged Dragon. It spread its wings and wherever it passed, the wind whistled. Its ferocious aura shook the world!
However, the five of them only took a quick glance and looked at the person on the back of the Green Winged Dragon.
It was a woman in red. She was tall and had an extraordinary temperament. Her long black hair fluttered in the wind, brimming with a unique charm.
She was none other than Zhao Kuang's sister, Zhao Qing!
Seeing this woman, for a moment, Wutian's heart was filled with emotions.
He remembered that when he brought Shi Shi to Ironstone Town, they met Zhao Qing as soon as they arrived. She threatened and tempted him, wanting to steal the Flying Fox. It could be said that other than Huo Shi and Liu Yan, she was the first person who had a grudge with him.
Later, because her father and brother, as well as the Zhao family's foundation in Ironstone Town, were destroyed by him and Han Tian, the enmity between them grew deeper and deeper. However, Wutian didn't take it to heart.
After that, Zhao Qing found the City Lord of Hell City to back him up and schemed against him in the Absolute Yin Ruins. Wutian still didn't take it to heart.
Who would have thought that after more than two hundred years, she would once again find the support of a false god and continue to compete with him? It was as if there was an inseparable connection between the two of them.
Back then, Guigu 'zi of the Ghost Sect, the Arhat of the Gutuo Temple, and the Holy Sons of the Sword Sect and Qingxu Sect were all stronger than Zhao Qing. In the end, they all died at his hands.
However, a minor character that he had never taken seriously had repeatedly failed to die and had repeatedly made him his enemy. He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
In fact, what Wutian couldn't figure out the most was that Zhao Qing's talent and scheming were just ordinary. How could he be valued by a false god?
Soon, Zhao Qing and the green pterosaur both arrived at the mountain peak.
"Swoosh!"
Zhao Qing jumped down and landed in front of the only empty stone table. She sat down cross-legged while the green pterosaur turned into a palm-sized beast and stood on her shoulder. She stared at Wutian with an unfriendly gaze.
Then, she glanced at the five people and finally locked her gaze on Wutian. She didn't hide her fierce gaze as she sneered, "Tell me, am I right?"
"Like a person drinking water, he knows whether it's hot or cold." Wutian smiled.
Wutian was easy to talk to, but it didn't mean that others were easy to talk to.
Han Tian smiled evilly and raised his wine cup. As he drank, he mocked, "Everyone says that good people don't live long, but disasters last for a thousand years. Originally, this handsome brother didn't understand what it meant. Now that I see you, I'm finally enlightened and suddenly see the light."
Zhao Qing's face turned cold.
Han Tian put down his wine glass and looked at Zhao Qing lazily. He continued, "Do you see that? I'm not boasting, but everyone here is outstanding among their peers. You're the only exception. So I'd like to ask you, what right do you have to boast so shamelessly?"
"Don't forget that the Graveyard of Gods and Demons is not the Samsara Continent. It's not a place for you to be presumptuous!" Zhao Qing said coldly.
Han Tian did not take it to heart. He said sarcastically, "Don't think that you can strut around just because you've joined a pseudo-deity. Everyone here knows what kind of trash you are. So, you'd better not put on an act, lest you embarrass yourself."
"Be careful, trouble comes from a loose tongue!" Zhao Qing's eyes darkened and were as cold as ice.
"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I'm afraid of everything but trouble." Han Tian smiled.
Seeing that the atmosphere was growing more and more tense with killing intent, Li Tian smiled and stepped forward to mediate the situation.
"Alright, alright, it's rare for everyone to gather together. Let's not talk about unhappy topics. Come, let's celebrate our reunion after a few hundred years. Let's drink to our hearts' content."
Han Tian smiled and said, "Guests should follow the host's wishes. Since Li Tian has said so, there's no need for you to talk nonsense. Come, come, let's drink to our hearts' content."
These two simple sentences livened up the atmosphere of the scene once again.
After that, the seven of them deliberately avoided talking about their past grudges and talked about everything. They didn't look like enemies at all, but like good friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
Time passed little by little. Soon, noon was approaching.
Suddenly, Li Tian said, "Gentlemen, before the sky turns dark, I will give you a big surprise."
Wutian's hand that was holding the wine cup paused slightly when he heard this.
At the same time, the Ten Thousand Elephant Badge in his pocket vibrated slightly. He extended his Divine Sense and the voice of the Shang Xuan Saint appeared in his mind.
"Senior Brother, Li Tian sent me a message saying that he has sent out ten Saints and they are on their way to the Sacred Roc Mountain."
Wutian's eyes flickered as he finished his drink. He looked at Li Tian and smiled, "Can Brother Li tell us what the big surprise is?"
Li Tian shook his head, "A surprise is only considered a surprise at the last moment. If I tell you now, it'll be meaningless."
"That makes sense. I'll wait and see," Wutian smiled and replied to the Shang Xuan Saint with the Ten Thousand Elephant Badge.
Then, he exchanged glances with Han Tian and the others and continued to drink and chat.
Sacred Roc Mountain.
Ten figures stood in the sky.
The leader was the Jiao Emperor and the Ice Demon Master.
Behind them were the four Saints, followed by Jian Wuying and the others.
The Ice Demon Master asked secretly, "Shang Xuan, what did Wutian say?"
"Senior Brother only sent four words: Act swiftly and decisively!" The Shang Xuan Saint replied.
"Act swiftly and decisively?"
The Ice Demon Master's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he secretly instructed, "Flood Dragon Emperor, keep an eye on Jian Wuying for me. Don't let him inform Li Tian. Lower Xuan, North Xuan, Upper Xuan, cooperate and pretend that you don't know anything."
"Okay," the four of them replied.
The Ice Demon Master turned around and glanced at the four Saints and their disciples. He said expressionlessly, "Are you guys wondering why I summoned you to the Sacred Roc Mountain?"
The eight of them looked at each other and nodded.
"Now, I'll tell you the real reason. The Jiao Emperor and I received reliable news that before noon, the Western Region will send out ten Saints to ambush the Sacred Roc Mountain. While we are attacking the Sacred Roc Mountain and fighting with the Sacred Roc and its creatures, they will give us a fatal blow."
"There's such a thing?" The Shang Xuan Saint frowned.
The Shang Xuan Saint and North Xuan Saint were also quite cooperative. Their faces were dark, filled with anger and doubt.
The Shang Xuan Saints, Murong Mingyu, Gao Yang, and Wang Yankun also frowned.
As for Jian Wuying, he looked the same as them on the surface. However, the question he had was, how did the Ice Demon Master and the Jiao Emperor know about this?
"It's absolutely true. After receiving this news, the Jiao Emperor and I discussed it and decided to set up a counter-ambush for the Western Region."
The Ice Demon Master scanned the area. Every small change in their expressions was noticed by the Ice Demon Master. However, he was still expressionless, but there was a hint of bone-chilling coldness in his voice.
"How?" The North Xuan Saint was puzzled.
"Very simple. When the Western Region's ten Saints enter the range of the Sacred Roc Mountain, the Shang Xuan Saint will immediately set up a god-level Saint Restriction to isolate the Sacred Roc Mountain from the outside world."
"Understood." The Shang Xuan Saint nodded.
The Ice Demon Master continued, "Shang Xuan, you have an apex Saint Weapon, so I'll leave Sacred Roc to you. Shang Xuan, North Xuan, the two of you lead Jian Wuying and the other three to sweep the Sacred Roc Mountain. Remember, don't let any of them escape."
"Alright!" The Shang Xuan Saints nodded heavily.
Jian Wuying frowned. "What about the ten Saints?"
The Ice Demon Master said coldly, "Those bastards will naturally be dealt with by me!"
"Senior Ice Demon Master is personally taking action. It seems that the ten Saints of the Western Region won't be able to return this time." Hearing this, a thick smile appeared on Jian Wuying's face. However, he was secretly scheming.
"No, if the plan fails, it won't do me any good. It seems that I have to inform Li Tian and have him change the plan."
In an instant, Jian Wuying made a decision in his heart. However, when he secretly transmitted a message to Li Tian, he was shocked to find that an invisible divine power had suddenly appeared and sealed the area!
"Have we been discovered?" Jian Wuying was surprised.
The Ice Demon Master glanced at Jian Wuying and said, "In order to prevent the Sacred Roc Mountain from being discovered and the news being leaked, Flood Dragon Emperor, don't participate in the battle this time. Focus on sealing the area and preventing the ripples of the battle from spreading. In addition, before the ten Saints are eliminated, no one is allowed to leave without permission."
"Alright." The Flood Dragon Emperor nodded.
"Phew!"
Hearing this, Jian Wuying secretly heaved a sigh of relief. So it was a false alarm.
After pondering for a while, he had no choice but to temporarily give up the idea of secretly transmitting a message to Li Tian.
The scorching sun hung high in the sky, moving bit by bit towards the sky. Seeing that noon was approaching, in the line of sight of Frost Devil Master and the others, the Ten Great Saints of the Western Region finally appeared, silently and quickly flashing towards Sacred Roc Mountain.
