Li Kai and Zheng Yunan
Night in Black Ox Town was tranquil and pleasant. Ye Zichen sat cross-legged on his bed. He didn't absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Instead, he sat there in a daze.
In truth, he wasn't as carefree as he'd seemed during the day. He just didn't want to think about it. However, when the entire world fell silent, his thoughts burst forth like a raging tide.
"River Styx."
"Yao Realm."
"Divine Mountains."
He didn't know how long he had been muttering to himself. When day and night came to an end, and the people of Black Ox Town breathed in and out, accompanied by the rosy glow of dawn, he gathered his thoughts. A formless Daoist art appeared in his mind, and he began to comprehend the Laws of Heaven and Earth.
Ye Zichen had comprehended the Dao of the Five Elements during his ten cycles of reincarnation. His method was to merge himself with the five elements and comprehend the Laws of Heaven and Earth while controlling them for his own use.
When Ye Zichen completely immersed himself in comprehending the Dao of the Five Elements, he became inanimate.
Five-colored lights gradually appeared around his body. These lights represented the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth.
Cultivation knew no time. When Ye Zichen opened his eyes once more, five days had passed.
"Hey, that kid isn't here."
The first thing Ye Zichen did when he opened his eyes was spread out with his immortal awareness. He wanted to see how Wu Di was doing. He hadn't expected Wu Di to emerge from seclusion one step ahead of him. This was completely unexpected.
"It seems this kid has some talent."
Based on the look in Wu Di's eyes, Ye Zichen was certain that he wouldn't leave seclusion until he broke through to entering immortality.
Now that he'd disappeared from his room, that naturally meant he'd entered immortality.
Ye Zichen admitted that he'd given Wu Di a lot of origin spirit stones, but the fact that he'd managed to enter the ranks of immortals so quickly proved that he was talented.
However, he was afraid that it was just as he'd said. His identity was awkward, and he didn't have enough cultivation resources. That was why his cultivation was so low, but his foundation was decent. Ye Zichen's origin spirit stones, on the other hand, had given him the opportunity to break through his shackles.
"Mm."
At that moment, Ye Zichen spread out his immortal awareness and found Wu Di's location. Just as he'd guessed, Wu Di had already entered immortality. Judging from the ripples of spiritual energy around him, he was on the verge of breaking through to the mid stage.
Ye Zichen was actually quite satisfied with their speed, but what made him frown was …..
"This child's personality is a little too cowardly."
Through his immortal awareness, Ye Zichen discovered that a few youths were currently bullying Wu Di. Given his experience, he could naturally tell that although these youths were also entering immortality, their foundations were unstable.
Moreover, Wu Di had an earth-grade treasure. Those youths were no match for him.
However, Wu Di was curled up on the ground. He allowed the youths to punch and kick him as they pleased. He didn't resist at all.
This was a far cry from Wu Di's behavior from a few days ago.
"Looks like I'll have to take action."
Ye Zichen sighed, then prepared to rush over. However, at that moment, he laughed.
"This kid is quite lucky. Forget it, let them play for a while. Since I've come to the God Realm, I can't be as dispirited as before. I'm going to stink to death, so I should clean myself up. "
In an alleyway in Black Yang Town.
Wu Di was curled up on the ground, his body covered in footprints. His eyes flashed with cold light as he looked at the youths surrounding him.
In truth, they were all members of the Wu Family. Due to their limited talent, they'd been assigned to Black Ox Town.
The youth in the lead was called Li Kai. His talent was average. However, his father was the Wu Family's steward in Black Ox Town. He controlled all of the Wu Family's resources there.
With this protection, Li Kai could be considered one of Black Ox Town's tyrants.
With the support of his father's vast resources, he was now a entering immortal.
Wu Di had lived in seclusion ever since entering Black Ox Town, mainly because of his relationship with Li Kai. His father was the clan head's wife's younger brother, and the clan head's wife had always found him, the son of a maidservant girl, an eyesore. Li Kai and his family didn't like him either, and they'd caused him no small amount of trouble.
He'd come out mainly to thank Ye Zichen for helping him break through. He'd plucked the spirit herbs in the garden for quite a few spirit coins, hoping to buy Ye Zichen a pot of tea to express his gratitude. However, he never would've guessed he'd run into Li Kai and his gang.
"Have you guys had enough?"
Wu Di, who'd been enduring Li Kai's punches and kicks this entire time, gnashed his teeth. He'd curled up like this because he was afraid the pot of wine would shatter. He'd used up half the spirit herbs in his garden to buy this pot of wine. If he broke it, there was no way he'd be able to buy another.
"Hah, are you talking to me?"
Li Kai smiled playfully. He cocked his head to the side and sneered at Wu Di, who was curled up on the ground.
"I can see that you're also a entering immortal. Why don't you dare fight back? Just look at how useless you look. As expected, you're the unfilial son of a maidservant girl. You'll never have any backbone in this lifetime. "
"Say that again."
He could hit him, he could curse him, but if he mentioned his mother …..
Wu Di's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. He glowered at Li Kai.
"You dare glare at me? Beat him up!"
With a wave of his hand, the Wu Family youths at his side began to beat Wu Di up. All this time, Wu Di gritted his teeth and endured. He wanted to fight back, but a part of his rationality told him to endure.
Li Kai's status was special. If he hit him, they might use this as an excuse to expel him from the clan.
Endure!
Wu Di repeatedly told himself to endure. As long as they were done beating him up, he'd be able to leave!
"Stop!"
At that moment, a feminine shout rang out from behind Li Kai. Everyone turned to see a young girl dressed in similarly embroidered clothes. Her almond-shaped eyes were wide open as she hurried over.
When he saw her, Li Kai's gaze roamed over her body. More importantly …..
His gaze was filled with greed.
"Why are you here?"
"Get out of my way." The girl pushed Li Kai aside and ran nervously to Wu Di's side. "Wu Di, are you alright?" she asked worriedly.
"Zheng Yunan? What are you doing here? "
Wu Di was shocked. This girl was the granddaughter of the Wu Family's first retainer, Zheng Chenggong. She ranked in the top ten of the Wu Family's genius rankings.
She was only twenty-four years old, but she was already at the peak of entering immortality. She was only a single step away from becoming an immortal.
In the Wu Family, only Zheng Chenggong and this girl had treated him slightly better. When the Wu Family had wanted to expel him from the clan, Zheng Chenggong had been the one to dissuade them.
"Don't ask so many questions. How are you? Do you feel unwell?"
Zheng Yunan asked in concern. Then she glared at Li Kai and roared angrily.
