I'm His Master!
As soon as she finished speaking, heavy spiritual pressure enveloped Zheng Yunan. The heavy spiritual pressure made Li Kai and the others feel their chests clench. Wu Di grabbed Zheng Yunan's arm and shook his head at her.
"Forget it."
He dusted himself off, then rose to his feet. When he saw that the jug of wine in his lap hadn't broken, he smiled in relief.
Zheng Yunan's nose twitched, and she immediately noticed the jug of wine.
"Wu Di, even if the clan sends you to Black Ox Town, you shouldn't be so disheartened. The immortal brew is good, but you should focus on your cultivation. When the time comes, you'll amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. If my grandfather puts in a few good words for you, you'll definitely be able to return to the clan. "
Clearly, Zheng Yunan had misunderstood. When she saw how worried Wu Di was about the jug of wine, she thought he'd become disheartened and started living a befuddled life.
Wu Di didn't explain. He simply smiled and nodded at her.
"Got it."
"Can you stop being so perfunctory? Let me tell you, I came here to inform the clansmen of Black Ox Town that the clan's grand competition will be held in a month. You … … if you act like this, do you really think you can make it into the top hundred?"
The clan's grand competition!
When the youths by Li Kai's side heard about the competition, they all grew excited.
The Wu Clan had far too many clansmen. If they wanted to distinguish themselves from the rest, they had to first possess dazzling, undeniable talent, and second, win the clan's grand competition.
As long as they made it into the top hundred, they'd become the clan's elite. Their status would rise with the tide, and they wouldn't need to worry about cultivation resources.
The youths by Li Kai's side were already rubbing their palms in glee. Once they returned, they'd definitely enter secluded cultivation for a month so that they could shine in the clan's grand competition.
"Him? Lil 'Nan, you're overestimating him. He's just the bastard of that filthy maidservant girl, and he wants to make it into the top hundred? With his status, he might not even be able to enter the clan's great gates. It's best if you don't get too close to him. Don't get infected by his bad luck. "
Li Kai snorted disdainfully. He'd heard about the clan's grand competition from his father half a month ago, so he wasn't surprised to hear it.
"Li Kai, you better take back what you said before."
Wu Di glared icily at Li Kai, his knuckles cracking as he clenched his fists.
"Apologize? Do you want me to apologize to you, a beast, or to your unruly mother?"
"Don't talk about my mother like that!"
"Why can't I say it? I can't even enter the clan's ancestral hall. In the end, I can only be buried in an unmarked grave. If she's really a virtuous woman, why can't she enter the ancestral hall? "
"Shut up!"
Boom.
The spiritual pressure of the Entering Immortality level was suddenly released. Feeling this spiritual pressure, Zheng Yunan's beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at him.
Li Kai stood in front of Wu Di. He no longer felt like the little bastard who wouldn't retaliate when hit or scolded. Instead, he felt like a primordial beast …
Bang.
Li Kai's legs gave way, and he fell to the ground.
"Hmph, trash."
With a cold shout, Wu Di turned around and left.
"Kill him for me!"
Li Kai's eyes were bloodshot as he sat on the ground. His clansmen and the guards his father had arranged for him instantly blocked Wu Di's path.
"Li Kai, what do you think you're doing? You can fight amongst clansmen, but you can't take their lives. Don't you know that? "
Zheng Yunan roared. When Li Kai heard that, he smiled playfully.
"Let me tell you, in Black Ox Town, I'm the heavens! Zheng Yunan, although you're the Grand Honorary Delegate's granddaughter, don't forget that you're still an outsider. You don't have the Wu Family's blood running through your veins. I advise you to mind your own business. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Kai turned to the people surrounding Wu Di and berated him.
"What are you waiting for?!"
"Scram!"
At that moment, a thunderous roar reverberated through the sky. In the blink of an eye, the people surrounding Wu Di were sent flying. They crashed to the ground and coughed up mouthfuls of blood.
This sudden turn of events stunned everyone. Then they saw a black-robed man standing by Wu Di's side. He stared coldly at Li Kai and the others.
Even the human immortal-level experts watching from the sidelines hadn't noticed how Ye Zichen had appeared.
It was obvious that this expert who'd appeared out of nowhere was stronger than a human immortal!
"Sen …."
For a moment, Wu Di couldn't be sure. His impression of a senior was that of a disheveled old beggar, but the man standing next to him ….
His eyes were bright, his posture ramrod straight, and he radiated authority without being angry. His entire body radiated the aura of a superior.
His eyebrows, in particular, were as straight as swords. Just looking at them made one's heart tremble.
"What, you don't recognize me?"
When he saw Wu Di's astonished expression, Ye Zichen pursed his lips and smiled. He reached out and rubbed Wu Di's head, then took the gourd of wine from him.
"For me?"
Wu Di hadn't expected this person to really be that senior. He was stunned for a moment, but when he heard Ye Zichen's question, he hurriedly nodded.
"It's for you, Senior."
Ye Zichen didn't hesitate. He poured the wine into his mouth, allowing it to flow down his chest. Then he smashed the gourd against the ground.
"Good wine."
When he saw Ye Zichen drink to his heart's content, Wu Di smiled from the bottom of his heart. He'd been a bit worried that this immortal brew wouldn't make it to Ye Zichen's mouth.
The situation suddenly changed.
Li Kai's guards and youths retreated to his side. Zheng Yunan stared blankly at Ye Zichen. When she realized that his relationship with Wu Di wasn't shallow, she giggled and ran over to him.
"Junior Zheng Yunan greets you, Senior."
"Mm."
Ye Zichen nodded at Zheng Yunan, then his expression darkened. He slowly walked up to Li Kai.
Li Kai never would have guessed that Wu Di was acquainted with such an important figure. Under this senior's gaze, he felt the threat of death loom over him.
"Dad, save me!"
As soon as he said that, he heard the sound of something tearing through the air ….
"Who dares …."
The man in the sky felt as if someone had grabbed him by the throat. He forcefully swallowed the second half of his sentence, then plastered a warm, friendly smile on his face.
He was a middle-aged man.
"Dad!"
When Li Kai saw him, he hurriedly ran over. The man glared at him, then cupped his hands at Ye Zichen.
"I am Li Wanlong, the Wu Family's representative of Black Ox Town. Greetings, Fellow Daoist. What has my son done to offend you? Please tell me, and I'll be sure to punish him. "
Li Wanlong's expression was respectful and friendly. He couldn't see through Ye Zichen. He was already a mid-stage human immortal expert. Although he couldn't see through Ye Zichen's strength, there was no way he was an earth immortal expert.
An expert like that would've long since gone to the Profound Great District. Why would he linger in the mortal great district?
"Your son didn't offend me, but he offended my disciple ….."
Ye Zichen's expression was indifferent. When Li Wanlong heard that, his heart thumped wildly. He glared at Li Kai.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask if your disciple …."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Wanlong saw Ye Zichen drag Wu Di over.
