Earthworms were also known as earth dragons, and they were a type of medicinal herb that could clear away heat, soothe the liver, relieve asthma, and soothe the blood vessels... However, he had never heard of it being edible! More importantly, its pungent appearance made him lose his appetite just by looking at it!
Liu Yiyi was perplexed. The Great Demon of Bliss, who was hiding underground, also widened his eyes in shock, and he nearly blurted out 'the heck'.
Back then, in order to cultivate and learn profound cultivation techniques, he had put in a lot of effort, suffered a lot, and suffered a lot. Yet, these three immortal beasts actually agreed to it just because of an earthworm?
Wasn't this too much of a joke? Could it be that the person outside wasn't strong, but... extremely talented?
He scanned the area with his Spiritual Perception once more...
Furthermore, it wasn't just any ordinary... In fact, it could even be said that his talent was extremely poor!
What in the world was going on?
The Great Demon and Liu Yiyi were astonished. The Three Beasts in the residence were divided once more.
"Are you doing this on purpose? If you want an earthworm, how am I supposed to eat it? "Donkey flew into a rage.
"Then... you can't possibly ask for some grass!" The parrot said indignantly. "The old tortoise and I don't like grass. Besides, you can find it anywhere you want..."
"I heard that the meat of demonic beasts is very nutritious. You can bring some over for master to stew..." Donkey pondered for a moment before saying, "If you really can't do it, you can bring some medicinal herbs as well."
Having gained sentience, it could be considered as a demonic beast as well. It was still able to digest some meat stew.
"This... Alright."
Nodding its head, the parrot's sharp voice sounded once more. "How about this? The next time you come over, bring some medicinal herbs or demonic beast meat, and I'll impart my sword art to you!"
"Thank you, master!" Liu Yiyi kowtowed in agitation before returning to the residence in satisfaction.
Even though she had lost an opportunity, she had still managed to acknowledge Zhang Xuan as her master. No matter what, she had profited greatly from this trip.
...
Unable to understand why the Three Beasts would accept a disciple, The Great Demon of Bliss hesitated for a moment before following Liu Yiyi.
Following behind Liu Yiyi, he had secretly tested her several times. No matter how he looked at it, the other party was only at Juxi realm, and her talent was only average... Thus, he felt even more perplexed!
He had personally experienced Donkey's strength. There were only a handful of people in the entire continent who could cultivate their demonic energy to such a level!
If an expert of such caliber wanted to take in a disciple, even Zongshi realm greater demons would have to wait in line. Furthermore, they might not even be able to get into the queue!
But now … he had directly taken in a fellow with such poor talent and cultivation as his disciple …
No matter how he looked at it, he found it strange.
"Could it be that … there's something wrong with their minds?" A thought popped into his mind.
These three fellows were clearly very powerful, but they had always felt that they were very ordinary. Previously, he had thought that they were keeping a low profile, but now, it seemed that they had gone berserk and injured their heads!
If that was the case, things would be simple!
As long as he could find a way to find their flaws and weaknesses and use them to blackmail them, perhaps, not only would he be able to obtain the treasures in the courtyard, he might even be able to make them obey his orders!
Once he succeeded, he, The Great Demon of Bliss, would be able to regain the prestige he had in his previous life.
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up in agitation.
He walked toward the courtyard once more, but before he could step in, he saw a young man opening the door and walking in.
"Master!"
The parrot had an obedient look on its face; the tortoise slowly raised its head, reminiscent of a sloth; Donkey held onto the reins, and it was spinning around on the spot, seemingly trying to rein it in.
These three powerful demons who were powerful enough to dominate the world were behaving as obediently as an ordinary animal.
"Is that their master?" The Great Demon of Bliss's face twitched in astonishment.
He had arrived a little late yesterday, so he didn't manage to catch a glimpse of their master. On top of that, he had been recovering from his injuries the entire morning, so this was the first time he had seen the other party.
Despite his appearance, he didn't seem to possess any cultivation at all.
"An expert in disguise?"
After yesterday's beating, The Great Demon of Bliss was no longer as rash as before. Given how the young man before him was able to subdue these three powerful demonic beasts, how could he possibly be simple? Perhaps, the other party had intentionally concealed it, but due to his low cultivation, he couldn't see through it!
"I'll know once I give it a try …"
With a thought, a surge of demonic qi flowed along the ground and arrived before the young man's feet.
Hu!
Caught off guard, the young man stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.
"…"
Su Yin turned his head around in dismay.
While chopping firewood, he met with a disguised genius of the sect and nearly lost his life. While walking, he nearly tripped on the ground … Wasn't he way too unlucky today?
Forget it, let's not think about it anymore. Waving his hands, Su Yin said, "I'll take a rest first. I'll make some food later. If you're hungry, feel free to look for anything in the courtyard!"
"He really is a mortal …"
Seeing how the other party didn't notice the surge of demonic qi or him, The Great Demon of Bliss widened his eyes in shock.
To think that such powerful demonic beasts would acknowledge a mortal as their master …
"Could it be … because of food?"
Recalling the other party's words before he left and the 'conditions' of the Three Beasts, The Great Demon of Bliss felt as if he had grasped onto a certain truth, and his face flushed in agitation.
"If I were to obtain some good food, would I be able to subdue them and use them for my own purposes?"
"As long as I succeed, not only will I be able to obtain the treasures in the courtyard and recover my strength, I'll also be able to find three powerful helpers … By then, I'll kill all those who have offended me! I want the entire world to bow before me so that they won't dare to oppose me! "
The Great Demon of Bliss trembled in excitement.
It was just a moment ago that he was still thinking about how to kill the three beasts, but from the looks of it now, wouldn't it be better to subdue them instead?
"Ordinary demonic beast meat won't do. It'll be best if it's something that can shock others and taste good …"
With a plan in mind, The Great Demon of Bliss fell into deep thought.
"Dragon meat! Dragons are the emperors of all beasts. Even if it's just a sliver of their bloodline, it'll definitely be more delicious than other demonic beasts! "
A thought suddenly flashed across Zhang Xuan's mind.
It was unlikely that he would be able to find a single pure-blooded dragon in the entire Dry Origin Continent. However, it was still possible to find a mixed-blooded dragon. As long as he could find a way to obtain one, perhaps … he might be able to tempt the three demonic beasts and use them for his own purposes!
"I'll think about it after I recover some strength …"
The Dragon Bloodline was incomparably powerful. Even if it was just a sliver, it was still one of the strongest demonic beasts in the world. If it was in the past, Zhang Xuan wouldn't have cared much about it. However, his injuries were too severe, and he had barely recovered his strength. It was best for him to be careful.
Looking around, Zhang Xuan saw 'terrifying' vegetation everywhere. Only the pile of dung in the corner seemed to be safe. More importantly, there was a concentrated amount of Saint Intent in it. As long as he absorbed it well, even if he couldn't fully recover, it would still be sufficient for him to recover some of his cultivation.
As for The Great Demon of Bliss hiding in a pile of dung, it didn't matter if he cared about his reputation or not!
As long as he had the strength to back it up, all he had to do was take revenge!
Chi liu!
The Great Demon dived into the pile of dung with a satisfied look on his face.
…
Wind Lightning Sect.
It was one of the second-tier sects of the Great Yan Prefecture.
A few people were seated in the majestic conference hall.
"Sect Leader, is this information accurate?"
A green-robed elder couldn't help but ask the middle-aged man before him.
The sect leader of the Wind Lightning Sect, Qin Wentian, was an Zongshi realm expert!
Five years ago, the Wind Lightning Sect was defeated by the Sect Leader of the Subduing Immortal Sect. It was only then that the Wind Lightning Sect became a second-tier sect.
"It's from the Jade Sea. It shouldn't be wrong!" Qin Wentian nodded.
"Li Maosheng's army has been wiped out. The Subduing Immortal Sect is like a pile of loose sand. This is the best opportunity! As long as we seize this opportunity, not only will we be able to take revenge, we might even be able to enter the top ten sects! "
The green-robed elder's eyes lit up.
Li Maosheng, the fallen Sect Leader of the Subduing Immortal Sect.
"If we can think of this, Wu Yuan and the others can as well. The spies we left in the Subduing Immortal Sect sent a message this morning saying that … they have invited Junior Martial Uncle to take charge of the sect."
Qin Wentian said.
"Junior Martial Uncle?" The green-robed elder was taken aback. "Sect Leader, are you talking about the one with the Xiantian Constitution and the Immortal Bloodline from ten years ago?"
Qin Wentian nodded.
"If I remember correctly, he's only 18 years old this year. At such a young age, so what if he's talented? Let him take charge of the sect … Do you think he can do it? "The green-robed elder sneered.
In this world, strength was the most important thing. Seniority … was just a bonus.
"Let's be careful. Since Wu Yuan and the others dared to do this, they must be confident! How about this, let Yao Zhan sneak over and see how strong Junior Martial Uncle is. We'll decide what to do after we find out the situation! "
Qin Wentian said with a serious expression.
Yao Zhan was his personal disciple. His cultivation wasn't any weaker than ordinary elders. More importantly, he was an expert at sneaking around. He was an expert at gathering information.
After a moment of hesitation, the green-robed elder nodded. "The Subduing Immortal Sect is too far from here. With Yao Zhan's speed, a round trip would take at least seven to eight days. It's too slow! Why don't we let my pet, the Silver Winged Green Jiao, take him there? If everything goes well, we can make a round trip on the same day. "
"Although the Silver Winged Green Jiao is only in the first layer of the Divinity Realm, it has the Dragon Bloodline. Its flying speed is much faster than ordinary demonic beasts. It's the best choice!" Qin Wentian replied. "It's decided then. Inform Yao Zhan and we'll set off now!"
"Okay!"
The green-robed elder nodded quickly.
