Chapter 346

「Master! 」

His head throbbed, and the Supreme Unity True Person felt utterly wronged.

He thought, he had done nothing wrong.

After all, how could the sage's schemes possibly miss Shengongbao?

Therefore, the demon pill affair was definitely done intentionally by my master.

But all along, my master never said anything and even forced me to take the blame.

Now that I've exposed it, he even strikes me with his own whisk—what else could this be but anger from embarrassment?

However, before the Supreme Unity True Person could continue speaking, he met the Primordial Heavenly Venerable's gaze.

In an instant, the words on the Supreme Unity True Person's lips would not come out.

«Let's not talk about the demon pill for now. »

The Primordial Heavenly Venerable changed the subject, saying: «Then how do you explain the people of Chentang Pass? »

«Master, this is an implicit admission—indeed, my guess was correct: the demon pill affair is just you wanting me to take the blame, you old bastard! »

He muttered to himself, yet the Supreme Unity True Person kept a calm exterior.

After all, he didn't want to be struck by his own whisk again.

«Master, since you've asked this, you must know a bit about the situation of the people of Chentang Pass; you surely don't think I can settle his affairs, do you? »

The Supreme Unity True Person spread his hands and said: «I truly am powerless! »

Upon hearing this, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable fell slightly silent.

Indeed, even he himself had suffered a loss at the hands of that opponent; how could this disciple of his possibly deal with him?

Seeing this, the Supreme Unity True Person continued: «As for those few senior brothers, in my view it's even simpler—this calamity is originally a killing calamity for us Twelve Golden Immortals; if we pass it, merit naturally accrues, but it's a pity that those few senior brothers seem to have sunk too deep into the calamity and failed to pass. »

After hearing the Supreme Unity True Person's words, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable looked again at this disciple and said: «Indeed, among all disciples, you see things most clearly; it seems you also know the true culprit who killed your few senior brothers? »

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Unity True Person waved his hands repeatedly and said: «Master, you are wronging your disciple; I truly do not know, and if I did, out of gratitude to the sect, I would certainly avenge my senior brothers—please see clearly, Master! »

Saying this, the Supreme Unity True Person stared with clear eyes at his own master.

Looking at this disciple, the Primordial Heavenly Venerable shook his head helplessly.

«You're not unaware; you're deliberately ignorant. Well, now the calamity has become more complicated; your approach is actually a wise way to preserve oneself. »

«Hehe»

The Supreme Unity True Person gave a hehe smile, showing a mouth full of white teeth, displaying utter simplicity, as if he truly were the landlord's foolish son.

«Boom—»

Just then, a thunderous roar echoed through the three realms.

At the same time, a murderous aura swept across heaven and earth.

The sage was furious!

The beings of the three realms couldn't help but stare blankly, not understanding what had happened to this heaven and earth.

After the goddess Nuwa flew into a rage, several sages who had previously been elusive began to appear frequently before the eyes of all beings.

«This is Tongtian—what on earth does he intend to do? »

Yuanshi Tianzun's expression changed; regarding the aura of this junior fellow disciple of his, he was naturally extremely familiar.

However, Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't fathom what had happened to make this junior fellow disciple of his so furious.

As he thought, the stars in Yuanshi Tianzun's pupils faded, and he began to calculate.

「Huh? Yun Zhongzi, kill Zhao Gongming! 」

Upon hearing those words, Taiyi Zhenren was completely dumbfounded.

His senior fellow disciple Yun Zhongzi—what level of strength does he have? How could he, with his meager abilities, possibly kill Zhao Gongming?

Is that reasonable?

At the same time, on a desolate mountain, Yun Zhongzi watched Zhao Gongming vomit blood and die, and he also stared at his own hands in disbelief.

「Master, wonderful! You killed Zhao Gongming; for our Xiqijun army, this is absolutely a great merit! 」

Beside him, Leizhenzi came to his senses and said to his master.

「Um, hehe, lucky, lucky! 」

Although he didn't understand what had happened, Zhao Gongming was indeed killed by his own eighteen divine fire pillars—an indisputable fact.

For a moment, Yun Zhongzi felt somewhat elated.

This is Zhao Gongming, the eldest senior brother of the outer gate of the Sect of the Cutting; back then, he alone could intimidate the twelve Golden Immortals.

Such a person was actually killed by his own luck.

After this incident, his name Yun Zhongzi will surely resound throughout the three realms!

「Boom—」

Suddenly, a trembling sound came.

In an instant, Yun Zhongzi's face turned deathly pale; he knew clearly that a sage had been angered!

Moreover, Yun Zhongzi clearly felt that this wrath was directed at him.

「Go, return! 」

Startled, Yun Zhongzi immediately flew toward the Xiqijun camp, silently cursing that the sage couldn't be trifled with.

Meanwhile, at the original spot, Leizhenzi's face showed a strange smile.

However, that smile was fleeting, quickly replaced by a look of bewilderment.

……

When the news of Zhao Gongming's death was transmitted back, the Xiqijun forces' morale instantly soared.

After all, this eldest senior brother of the outer gate of the Sect of the Cutting had been suppressing them quite severely lately.

However, looking at the Yin Shang army's direction, it is all sorrowful faces.

Kong Xuan has left and never returned; at present, the entire Yin Shang army only has Zhao Gongming holding the fort.

Now, this Sea-Stabilizing Pillar actually died at Yun Zhongzi's hands; the blow to the Yin Shang army is truly too great.

Furthermore, for Wen Zhong, the impact of this matter is even more severe.

After all, Zhao Gongming's position in the Sect of the Cutting is not low; now, because he supported me and was killed, he simply cannot explain this to the sect.

Furthermore, the sages are all angry this time, and Wen Zhong feels as if his heavens have collapsed.

…

"Daoist friend Ao, you really fulfilled your prophecy; I really died in this calamity!"

In the Underworld, Zhao Gongming looked at Ao Yifan, gave a bitter laugh, and said:

That's correct; the deceased Zhao Gongming did not make it onto the List of Gods, but was instead dragged into the Underworld.

This matter is difficult for others, but for Ao Yifan, who controls the List of Gods, it is easy.

After all, he not only controls the List of Gods, but he also has people in the Underworld.

As for this matter, Zhao Gongming is also speechless.

Looking at the little girl held in Hou Tu Niangniang's arms, it seems everything now makes sense.

"Daoist friend Zhao, have you figured out who dealt you the black hand?"

Ao Yifan suddenly spoke up.

Upon hearing that, Zhao Gongming shook his head and said: "I didn't see clearly; I only remember that when that kid with Thunder God's face glanced at me, my soul was sealed. Although I don't know what method it was, I'm certain it was the sages who did this to me!"

As for this point, Zhao Gongming is still quite certain; if not for the sages taking action, he absolutely could not have been easily killed by anyone.

"I see, I understand!"

Ao Yifan nodded and then continued: "Then next, Daoist friend Zhao, are you ready to enter reincarnation, be reborn and continue cultivation? I can let Pingxin let you cultivate with your memories, which will be very helpful for your cultivation."
