Chapter 588: Chapter 587: Elder Chaotic Heaven’s Current Situation

How many of the big shots who have cultivated to become Yin Spirit and Yang Spirit are simple people? How many are just loose cultivators?

In this world, it’s all about power and backing.

Although Elder Chaotic Heaven has strong backing, others are not lacking either.

Usually, it’s fine; either they can’t provoke Elder Chaotic Heaven, or they don’t want a mutual destruction situation, letting others take advantage.

But now, given the chance, why wouldn’t they fiercely kick someone when they’re down, seizing the chance to beat a drowning dog?! 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

So, even though out of respect for his senior brother, no one has pursued him to the end, Elder Chaotic Heaven hasn’t gained any benefits, but has rather faced repeated setbacks!

It is said that at least three waves of people have confronted him, and twice Elder Chaotic Heaven fought with others and was defeated miserably, sustaining even more severe injuries.

Moreover, recently, Elder Chaotic Heaven’s arch-nemesis Ancestor Jinsha has also been hunting disciples on Iron Cloud Island, occasionally launching sneak attacks, causing Elder Chaotic Heaven significant trouble.

Just not sure what wind Elder Chaotic Heaven caught now, as he has actually announced an invitation to many big figures from the East Sea for his seven-thousand-year birthday banquet.

But according to Fellow Daoist Shi’s analysis, Elder Chaotic Heaven is not a fool. To do such a thing, there must be a trap, and he may be plotting some conspiracy.

"Indeed, there’s something quite odd about this matter."

Gu Yuan nodded in agreement: "As long as Chaotic Heaven’s brain isn’t damaged, he surely wouldn’t invite trouble proactively, but since he’s in considerable trouble now, he can only break the situation by taking the initiative."

Regarding this point, Fellow Daoist Shi was naturally well aware, but what surprised him wasn’t Gu Yuan’s speculation, but Gu Yuan’s choice of words.

He actually dared to say "as long as Chaotic Heaven’s brain isn’t damaged," what does this imply?

It clearly implies a deep hostility towards Elder Chaotic Heaven!

He felt a tremor in his heart, realized the problem, and thought to himself that this was not good.

Regardless of Gu Yuan’s attitude and hostility towards Elder Chaotic Heaven, for Fellow Daoist Shi himself, it wasn’t good news,

because soon, he would be heading to Iron Cloud Island, making him more susceptible to involvement.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, I...

Fellow Daoist Shi was about to say something, but he saw Gu Yuan show a trace of an inexplicable smile and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi, you’d better be careful, it seems you’re going to be busy next."

While speaking, Fellow Daoist Shi was also frowning, as if sensing something, only his disciple Ye Changxiu was wide-eyed, somewhat puzzled.

The next moment, he saw his master’s expression change slightly, suddenly wave his sleeve, and control the flying boat to change direction.

The next instant, a rapid stream of light interlaced with the original trajectory of the flying boat.

If Fellow Daoist Shi hadn’t reacted in time, that stream of light would have pierced through the flying boat and injured those inside.

Seeing that stream of light, after missing its target, it spun once in the air and landed beside a figure, revealing itself to be a sharp silver short-spear magical treasure.

Its owner was a middle-aged man in a dark golden robe, with a broad face, large ears, and a dignified demeanor.

At this time, the middle-aged man glanced over and suddenly let out a cold smile: "Junior brother, long time no see. How have you been recently?"

Fellow Daoist Shi’s expression didn’t look good. He flashed and appeared outside, standing opposite the middle-aged man, and snorted coldly: "Thanks to senior brother’s blessing, I’ve been doing quite well as your junior brother, but it’s been a long time since we’ve met. I’ve missed you so much... I can hardly wait to hack you into pieces!"

His words were tinged with sarcasm and emanated a strong killing intent, but one couldn’t blame him, as the other party was really too odious.

If he hadn’t reacted in time just now, he himself would have been fine; although he would be injured, the injuries wouldn’t be too severe.

However, his disciple Ye Changxiu, with low cultivation, wasn’t even a cultivator yet, and would surely be affected.

This disciple was a good seedling that he had painstakingly sought for a long time. Naturally, he was quite angry.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly laughed heartily: "Alright, junior brother, let’s cut the chatter."

He glanced at the flying boat, sweeping over Gu Yuan and Ye Changxiu, paying them no mind, assuming this to be just another apprentice of his junior brother, and cheerfully stated his intention: "Junior brother, as long as you hand over the item passed down by the master, I’ll leave immediately and won’t trouble you, and I’ll even offer generous compensation afterwards. How about that?"

Fellow Daoist Shi’s expression was grim: "You’re dreaming! Master passed that item to me back then, and it was you who injured the master, angering him. Now you still have the face to ask for it from me?! Truly shameless!"

The middle-aged man, having been scolded, also had a sour expression. He snorted coldly and said directly: "Junior brother, you don’t need to tell me whether I’m shameless. All you need to know is if you don’t hand over the item, you might still have a chance to escape, but these two disciples of yours will likely be in big trouble."

As he spoke, the short-spear beside the middle-aged man emitted a faint cold light, the threads of chilly light slicing through the surrounding void with a slicing sound.

"Upper grade magical treasure..."

Fellow Daoist Shi’s heart sank, feeling doomed.

As a Yin Spirit Giant, he naturally understood the power of magical treasures very well.

Ordinary magical treasures were nothing; he had several.

But as for middle grade magical treasures, he had only one.

As for upper grade magical treasures, generally speaking, they were only possessed by the truly formidable Yin Spirit Giants of large sects or Yang Spirit experts.

But he knew the other party’s background very well, almost identical to his own. Where did the other party get an upper grade magical treasure?

But then, Fellow Daoist Shi laughed, an inexplicable laugh that made the middle-aged man frown in confusion, unsure of what wind had caught his junior brother.

"Junior brother, what are you laughing at?"

The middle-aged man asked gloomily.

Fellow Daoist Shi didn’t answer but looked towards Gu Yuan.

The next moment, Gu Yuan moved from within the flying boat, appearing right beside Fellow Daoist Shi with lightning speed, and asked, "Fellow Daoist Shi, do you need my assistance?"

The middle-aged man was immediately startled, feeling something was off, and only then realized he couldn’t quite see through Gu Yuan. But when he used his Dharma Eye Divine Techniques, he saw through Gu Yuan’s cultivation and found him to be a Golden Core Great Cultivator.

Seeing this, he immediately relaxed, and then inquired solemnly:

"Who might you be? I advise you not to meddle in others’ affairs! Otherwise, you might bring trouble upon yourself!"

Hearing this, Fellow Daoist Shi wasn’t angry at all, but instead showed a relaxed expression and greeted, "Then I’ll trouble you, fellow Daoist."

With Gu Yuan taking action, he believed his senior brother was doomed this time, without a doubt.

"Alright."

Gu Yuan nodded slightly, then turned to the middle-aged man: "Would you give me face? If you leave now, I will spare your life."
