Chapter 46: Refining The Barbarian Kings Blood |
After Shen Chenyu finished paying respect to Yue Yao, the Heavenly Fate Map suddenly shook. When Zhang Yi turned to Shen Chenyu’s page again, it had become extremely dazzling, and all rewards had been distributed within his body.
Zhang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as if a suspended sword had finally fallen to the ground. Whether or not there were rewards didn’t matter, the main punishment was too terrifying. “Finally, the task is completed.”
Furthermore, Zhang Yi found that Shen Chenyu’s favorability towards him was also five stars. Now it seemed that both the favorability and hatred values peaked at five stars.
‘Zhang Luoyan, your high favorability towards me is very dangerous.’ Zhang Yi finally understood what a five-star favorability meant and couldn’t help but glance at Zhang Luoyan with a complicated expression.
When Zhang Wufeng heard that Yue Yao had taken in Shen Chenyu as her disciple, he was shocked and said with a worried expression, “Princess, you are putting me in a difficult position.”
“Go back and tell the Emperor that I have kept Shen Chenyu.” Yue Yao’s tone was extremely firm and domineering.
“Sect Master Yao…” Zhang Wufeng looked hesitant and troubled.
“Do as I say, the Emperor won’t blame you.” Yue Yao’s impatience was evident in her tone.
Zhang Wufeng could only nod in agreement. Faced with Yue Yao’s strong will, he had no other choice.
Zhang Yi had originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to inquire about his identity, but seeing the other party leave in a hurry, he temporarily dismissed the idea.
Now only the disciples of the Earth Sect remained, and Yue Yao didn’t have a good expression towards Daoist Qinglian. “What? Do you have something else to say?”
Daoist Qinglian glanced at Yue Yao and gave Zhang Yi a charming look. “Little brother Zhang, I helped you this time. How do you plan to repay me?”
“Daoist Qinglian, please be dignified!” Zhang Yi was really afraid of this old witch. He didn’t know about other skills, but her skills in provoking people were really superb.
Sure enough, Zhang Yi immediately sensed that Yue Yao’s favorability towards him had dropped to one star. “Evil Qinglian!”
“Qinglian, no one asked for your help in this matter. Don’t take credit for it.” Yue Yao retorted sharply.
The situation had already been decided, and Daoist Qinglian’s position was not important at all. Yue Yao wouldn’t give her the chance to take credit.
“Hmph, you have no conscience. Fortunately, I am doing this for Zhang Yi’s sake. What does it have to do with you?”
Daoist Qinglian snorted coldly and refused to back down.
“Daoist Qinglian, Master’s opinion is my opinion.” At this point, Zhang Yi had to say something. He couldn’t let his favorability continue to decline.
“You ungrateful person!”
Daoist Qinglian glared at Zhang Yi and felt like her good intentions had been wasted. She left in a fit of anger with the people from the Earth Sect.
Once all the people and horses had left, the Dao sect returned to its former calm.
“Why aren’t you leaving yet?” Zhang Yi frowned and asked Chen Xiaokui, who seemed to have no intention of leaving.
“I have nowhere else to go. I hope the Dao sect will take me in,” Chen Xiaokui pretended to be pitiful.
“The Dao sect does not welcome you,” Yue Yao refused without hesitation. One troublesome person like Shen Chenyu was enough, why let the troublemaker Chen Xiaokui into the Dao sect?
This was the crisis that came naturally to her as a woman.
Zhang Yi was overjoyed in his heart. He did not want to have too much to do with Chen Xiaokui either. They said that women were troublemakers, so it was better to stay away.
“Let’s go!” Yue Yao ordered, and the people of the Dao sect left one after another, leaving only the disheveled Chen Xiaokui and Xiao Gu in the wind.
“What…what…there are still people who can refuse this Holy Maiden?” Chen Xiaokui was confused and still hadn’t processed what happened.
“Holy Maiden, the people of the Dao sect are indeed as ruthless as their reputation. Where should we go next? Back to the Southern Demon Nation?” Xiao Gu saw Chen Xiaokui’s defeated look and silently cursed Zhang Yi in her heart.
“There’s no need to go back to the Southern Demon Nation for now. Let’s wander around in this world,” Chen Xiaokui looked at the Dao sect resentfully and left with great unwillingness.
“One day, I, Chen Xiaokui, will make you fall for me!” Zhang Yi’s indifference had aroused her strong interest.
On the Moon Shadow Peak, Yue Yao asked Qingyi to go and settle Shen Chenyu, while she looked at Zhang Yi with an unhappy expression, not saying a word. She exuded a sense of pressure all over her body.
“Yao’er, why aren’t you saying anything? Did I do something to upset you?” Zhang Yi saw that the situation was not good and approached her while there was no one around.
“Get lost! Every time you go out, you mess around with other women. What’s your relationship with that fox demoness? And why did that Witch Qinglian help you? What did you do when you went to the Earth Sect last time?” Yue Yao suspected that there was something fishy going on, everything felt too unusual.
Indeed, she was jealous.
Zhang Yi explained calmly, “I teamed up with Chen Xiaokui because I needed her in the Great Barbarian Forbidden Lands. There’s nothing I have to do with her anymore. My heart only belongs to you forever!”
“As for that Witch Qinglian, it’s even simpler. She just wants to sow discord, right?” Zhang Yi had already prepared his explanation.
Hearing this, Yue Yao’s expression improved slightly, but Zhang Yi found that her favorability towards him was still low. He continued, “Yao’er, let’s compensate Dao sect with all the resources from every force.”
The reaction of the Dao sect disciples moved Zhang Yi deeply.
Yue Yao nodded without declining. This would also help establish the Dao sect’s authority. “Anyone who wrongly accuses my disciple will not have a good end.”
“Just a disciple?” Zhang Yi asked with a half-smile.
“Zhang Yi! Don’t push your luck! Quickly refine the blood of the barbarian king!” Yue Yao was still angry and naturally had no good expression toward Zhang Yi.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Yi also showed a serious expression. He knew that Yue Yao was a fanatic of cultivation, and he must have a proper attitude towards cultivation in front of her.
Immediately, Zhang Yi took out the Barbarian King blood and drank it all at once. It was like magma surging in his body, and the savage power washed his bones and meridians. His whole body was filled with a wild power. Under the shining of golden light, the Supreme Bone reappeared, completely absorbing and refining the blood of the Barbarian King in his body.
This also directly allowed Zhang Yi’s spiritual pool to reach a size of hundred meters, which was definitely a unique existence.
“Even after refining so much Barbarian King blood, you haven’t broken through yet, but your body is now comparable to a true dragon, which is not bad,” Yue Yao looked at Zhang Yi’s tight muscles and nodded in satisfaction. She had begun to look forward to Zhang Yi’s breakthrough into the Void Spirit Realm.
Yue Yao gave Zhang Yi a meaningful glance and slowly asked, “Zhang Yi, did you gain any insights from your trip to the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land?”
Zhang Yi frowned. When he thought of the Great Barbarian Forbidden Land, he thought of the day when it was a scene of extreme devastation.
“Human nature is complicated and cannot be easily trusted,” Zhang Yi pondered for a moment and said seriously.
