Chapter 941: The Expert Cannot Be Disturbed
The drunkard was pushed aside as he looked at Xiao Chengfeng finish up the rest of the wine. He pursed his lips helplessly.
If he knew earlier, he would have poured a little of it into the gourd first. It was a waste for such a good wine to be finished just like that.
He felt a pang of pain in his heart.
The other one who felt pained was Zhou Yuanhai.
He felt a bit guilty and did not dare to fight over it with the Heavenly Palace. He thought that they would have left him some, but those people finished drinking all of it. They did not even leave him a single drop…
Xiao Chengfeng only noticed Zhou Yuanhai when he held the empty jar, “Cultivator Zhou, I’m sorry. We got too obsessed with drinking and forgot to leave you some.”
“You’re new and still don’t know the rules. You have to fight for good things like this. You can’t just look on by the side. Everyone was so focused on drinking, so who would think about you?” Yang Jian said in an earnest tone.
Cultivator Junjun smiled and said, “Next time, you have to be a bit more shameless.”
“Ahem, thank you for the lesson.”
Zhou Yuanhai coughed to mask his awkwardness. At the same time, he was full of hatred in his heart. It was a mere jar of wine. Once he succeeded, he would be able to create anything with a wave of his hand. Then he would show them what true hopelessness was!
…
He was furious inside, but his expression was as calm as water as he said, “Fellow cultivators, isn’t it time for us to go visit the expert?”
Xiao Chengfeng nodded, “Yes, it’s time.”
At that moment, the drunkard raised an eyebrow as he said, “You’re going to visit the expert?”
“That’s right, do you want to come with us?”
The drunkard said seriously, “It’s better if you don’t go with that many people.”
“Why?” Xiao Chengfeng and the others had looks of surprise on their faces.
The drunkard said plainly, “Did you forget the traitors?”
The traitors?
The Heavenly Palace’s group chilled.
The drunkard continued, “Back then, quite a few of the traitors were people who lived for Wisdom just like me. The Unrivaled was one of them, but what happened in the end? They chose to betray Wisdom. In this world, the human heart is the thing that changed the easiest, and it’s also the hardest to anticipate. That person is in a unique situation right now, so it’s better if you don’t let so many people visit. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
Hearing the drunkard’s words, the Heavenly Palace had a look of realization. They exchanged looks and found that they were too careless in their ways.
The moment anyone went in with ill intentions and disturbed the expert’s training, no one would be able to bear the consequences!
“Now, you are the protectors that he has chosen. You should perform your job properly. You can’t allow a single mistake to happen, and you can’t let what happened last time repeat itself! I don’t want traitors to appear among you again!” The drunkard’s tone was sad as he swept his gaze across everyone with a complicated expression.
Xiao Chengfeng and the others immediately said in a resolved tone, “Don’t worry, we won’t disappoint you!”
Yang Jian said, “Since the drunkard said so, we shouldn’t visit the expert so much anymore. Next time, we should talk to the people next to the expert instead.”
Cultivator Junjun said to Zhou Yuanhai, “Cultivator Zhou, we wanted to introduce you to the expert, but we can’t do it anymore. We’re sorry. I hope you can understand.”
What was there to understand?!
Zhou Yuanhai cursed in his heart, feeling like he swallowed a fly.
He plotted for so long to get closer to Xiao Chengfeng and the others and even gave up all of the seven battle souls. He even offered up the whole Heaven Plundering Alliance. It was all for the sake of meeting that person!
He never expected the fish to leave right as it was about to bite onto the hook. It was so tragic!
That stupid drunkard ruined all his plans!
He cursed inside, but could not do anything but smile, “I understand. Of course, I understand. I honestly don’t need to visit him. It’s enough for him to get my gift.”
Xiao Chengfeng immediately praised, “Cultivator Zhou, you have a great sense of awareness. You’re a talented person. Not bad!”
“Haha, that’s too much praise…” Zhou Yuanhai forced out an ugly smile.
Juling Shen asked, “Drunkard, the gray mist is uncontrollable at the moment. What should we do?”
The drunkard said, “Of course, you should mobilize all the major cultivators to suppress the gray mist. It’s a calamity of the whole Origins Realm, no one can escape from it. We should pay attention to two places.”
Yang Jian asked, “Which two places?”
“First is the Unending Sea. It’s expanding incredibly rapidly. The sea is swallowing everything up, enveloping even the skies. It won’t take long for it to swallow up all the stars in the Origins Realm. It would be a terrifying calamity. It will become a force that can go against Wisdom itself.”
“The second place is the Volcanoes of Disaster. It’s not too different from the Unending Sea. It’s currently being sealed up by an old friend after he paid the price with his life.”
The drunkards caused the Heavenly Palace to pay their respects.
No matter the Unending Sea or the Volcanoes of Disaster, they could swallow up the Origins Realm incredibly quickly. However, a supreme being paid his life to seal the Volcanoes of Disaster. It was something worthy of respect and admiration.
The drunkard continued, “I feel that that old friend of mine won’t die so easily. I’ll go take a look at the volcanos.”
Xiao Chengfenfg immediately said, “Since that’s the case, we’ll follow you and save that senior.”
The drunkard fell silent for a moment before he nodded, “Fine.”
In the end, they decided that Xiao Chengfeng and Yang Jian, who were the two strongest, would go with the drunkard to the volcanos. The others would bring the soldiers with them and help the cultivators of the Origins Realm suppress the gray mist.
“We can’t delay the matter. Follow me!”
The moment the drunkard said that, he jumped into the air. He headed right toward the volcanos, and Xiao Chengfeng followed closely behind Yang Jian.
On the way, they seemed to pass by neverending battles. It was a calamity that affected the whole Origins REalm. It was a battle between Wisdom and the gray mist. There were more and more white-haired beasts that were born from the gray mist killing everything in sight as well.
They saw many corrupted places, but also saw many paradises that were carved out by incredibly strong cultivators. The Origins Realm changed drastically.
At the same time, it was still completely dark in the sun.
The ancient demon chased after the Unrivaled’s finger, transcended an unending distance as his physical body smashed past the restrictions of Wisdom and gave chase all the way here.
It did not want any revenge, nor did he dare to seek it, but his body seemed to hold a grudge. The body seemed like a crazed dog, ignoring any obstacles or danger/
In the darkness, two eyes that seemed to see everything opened. The pupils were gold and vibrant and seemed to encompass the universe. It was completely unrivaled, and no one dared to look into it.
The ancient demon shook at the sight, almost dying from the fright.
“I’m sorry for disturbing you. I don’t want to do this.”
“It’s true. Believe me. I can’t control myself.”
As he said that, his body lunged forward like a hungry tiger, heading straight for the Unrivaled!
