Chapter 554: The Tearful Daoist Tian Xin Who Was Trapped

I'll go all in; do you dare?

Don't talk about how many items are in the storage bag; this momentum, this attitude, directly scared Tian Xin Dao Ren, he also wanted to go all in, mock Yin Gui Zhenren once, and he found he couldn't do it.

The storage bag hides many good things, concerning his future, cannot give to Chen Chuyang.

Two fourth‑grade pills are already his limit; giving him anything else isn't worth it.

After hesitating for a long time, Tian Xin Dao Ren could not make up his mind, weighing gains and losses in his heart.

Tianlian Zhenren saw this scene and said, "No…disappointed," but that was false.

She didn't urge him, but waited quietly; deep in her heart she still held hope for that senior brother.

The senior brother would save himself; he wouldn't abandon himself on Longshe Shan.

Yin Gui Zhenren saw this, his face full of contempt: "Hah, Tian Xin Dao Ren, it seems in your heart Tianlian Zhenren truly isn't as good as those treasures of yours."

"But that's also true; Tianlian Zhenren is dead, you can still find another substitute. The Heavenly Heart Sect doesn't have many others, but talents are as numerous as cattle hair; with a little resource expenditure you can cultivate them. Handing over everything for Tianlian Zhenren isn't worth it."

"If it were me, I might not be able to."

That sentence is the true killing‑of‑the‑heart; surrendering everything yet saying you can't do it.

Isn't this plainly exposing the Yin‑Yang Tian Xin Dao Ren?

Tian Xin Dao Ren was so angry his face turned bright red, glared at Yin Gui Zhenren, wanted to kill him—truly—but what a pity.

He couldn't act; everyone's gaze focused on him, and at this moment he resembled a clown.

"Yin Gui Zhenren, stop talking."

Tian Xin Dao Ren's anger made his whole body tremble; he became irritable.

He no longer wanted to speak with this person, only to kill him.

His entire body of true Qi was on the brink of eruption, almost ready to burst.

Chen Chuyang wore a smile, said nothing; that look made him dare not act.

"Actually, you may choose not to give it; I can understand you." Chen Chuyang said slowly, "Tianlian Zhenren, it seems you're destined to stay and work for me. Rest assured, I won't mistreat you."

"How about this: from now on, you leave the Heavenly Heart Sect and directly join my Longshe Shan."

"I won't say more; without my permission, no one can bind you."

After saying that, he glanced at the Heavenly Heart Sect leader.

The Heavenly Heart Sect leader instantly realized this was an insult to him.

Chen Chuyang and Yin Gui Zhenren were both insulting him, plainly making him embarrassed; from the start they had been working together, step by step luring him, tricking him, thus… getting him trapped.

"You've been together from the start?"

"No, no." Yin Gui Zhenren waved his hand, "You're wrong, Tian Xin Lao Gui, our relationship is merely a normal cooperation. Since you've come, then please stay."

He rashly acted; this move by Yin Gui Zhenren startled the people around.

Tian Xin Dao Ren raised his right hand, colliding his palm against Yin Gui Zhenren's.

The two clashed.

"Bang."

The two separated; true Qi and ghost Qi collided, on Longshe Shan, not yet spreading, Chen Chuyang tapped a point, and the ripple dissipated.

All movement vanished into nothingness.

In this maneuver, Tian Xin Dao Ren stared at Chen Chuyang, daring not to act again, his right hand retracting backward.

If he continued, he could be sure Chen Chuyang would definitely act.

"Hmph, Yin Gui Zhenren, this debt, the sect leader will remember."

Tian Xin Dao Ren stared deeply at Yin Gui Zhenren; this debt he will not let go.

"Tianlian junior sister, wait for your senior brother; he will return."

Turning, Tian Xin Dao Ren's form gradually faded.

His true body had long left.

When he acted, he had already departed.

What remained here was only his true Qi avatar; he used some method to break through the formation.

Chen Chuyang looked toward the distance; beyond Longshe Cheng, Tian Xin Dao Ren's body slowly coalesced.

Beside him, a small formation disc shattered.

Tian Xin Dao Ren, his face grim, stepped out of the disc, looked at the broken pieces on the ground, waved his right hand, and the disc vanished.

"How terrifying, Chen Chuyang; if I hadn't left a safeguard, you'd probably have been left on Longshe Shan."

"Yin Gui Zhenren and Chen Chuyang reached an agreement; Tianlian junior sister cannot be taken away, only she must endure for a while."

"This time, many forces intervened, wanting to annihilate my Heavenly Heart Sect. Hmph, it's not that simple."

"Great Qi Dynasty, Yin Gui Sect, Spirit Sword Sect, and the Monster Race, you all wait for me."

He stared deeply at Longshe Shan.

"Longshe Shan's Chen Chuyang, sooner or later you'll kneel and beg the old man."

"Longshe Cheng's Chen Clan, the old man remembers you."

The anger of the Heavenly Heart Sect is not something they can bear.

Tian Xin Dao Ren turned and left.

Yin Gui Zhenren coldly said, "Daoist Chen Chuyang, you should have blocked him; he left, and we could be in great danger."

"Tian Xin Lao Gui is vengeful; we offended him, he will surely retaliate."

"Yin Gui Sect doesn't matter; the Heavenly Heart Sect cannot intervene in Yin Gui Sect's territory, but your Longshe Cheng is different. You're in the Great Qi Dynasty; if the Heavenly Heart Sect pressures the Great Qi Dynasty, the dynasty may stand opposite you."

"And those great families are all madmen; in their hearts only the Heavenly Heart Sect matters, other factions won't be on their radar."

Chen Chuyang waved his hand, indifferent, "It's fine; if they come, they come. Those who aren't afraid of death may come."

Kill as many as come.

Tian Xin Dao Ren doesn't refrain from killing because he doesn't want to, nor because he doesn't want to stay; it's simply that this person is overly cautious and has many follow‑up moves.

He was about to act, but he has already left.

Even if he did act just now, he might not have been able to keep Tian Xin Dao Ren.

These old ones have lived for so many years and have many tricks.

Moreover, acting on Longshe Shan makes Chen Chuyang uneasy; his father and Hongxue are both there, along with numerous spiritual medicine rice and the like, all of which are his treasures and cannot be destroyed.

If Tian Xin Dao Ren runs away, he runs; his threat to Chen Chuyang isn't great, and after probing Tian Xin Dao Ren's strength, he knows where he stands.

He knows how to respond, and how to act the next time they meet.

"Don't think Tian Xin Lao Gui is simple; the fact that he has lived so many years doesn't mean he's a kind person."

"Anyone who offends him or his forces has, over the years, been wiped out completely."

"Even if you don't think of yourself, consider the Chen Clan and Shang Clan; against the Heavenly Heart Sect they are like a mantis arm trying to stop a chariot."

Yin Gui Zhenren still hopes Chen Chuyang will strike, even if he can't kill Tian Xin Dao Ren, he can still grievously wound him.

In that case, Tian Xin Dao Ren's threat will drop to the lowest possible level.

The Yin Gui Sect can then catch its breath and naturally pass through a safe period.

At present the Yin Gui Sect has suffered huge losses, its strength is greatly weakened, and it needs time to recover.
