Chapter 157: , Part 11: Everyone Move Aside, I'm About to Show Off (Fourth Update)

In the Qian Gu world, atop Xianshan.

"Phew, finally back!"

Space warped slightly, then Luo Shiyi's figure stepped out from the void.

Gazing at the familiar surroundings, Luo Shiyi let out a long sigh of relief.

Yet no sooner had he stepped out than he saw the disciples of Xianshan all heading toward the mountain gate plaza, and Luo Shiyi immediately grew anxious.

"No good, Tang Bao!"

With a slight perception, Luo Shiyi sensed Tang Bao's aura.

Without hesitation, his figure moved, and Luo Shiyi rushed straight for the mountain gate plaza.

At this moment on Xianshan, atop the mountain gate plaza, every disciple of the Xianshan Sect had gathered there.

In the center of the vast plaza stood the Execution Pillar, and Hua Qiangu's body was now tightly bound to it.

"Mother, Mother..."

Amidst the crowd nearby, Tang Bao kept calling out, but was held back tightly by Qing Shui and others, unwilling to let him approach.

Hua Qiangu stole a divine artifact without authorization and released the Demon God to wreak havoc upon the human world.

Under such a crime and punishment, she was sentenced to the penalty of eighty-one Soul-Devouring Nails.

If Tang Bao went up, it would not take long before both his form and spirit were utterly destroyed.

"Tang Bao, Little Bone will not want to see you go up!"

"Let me go! Mother, hold on! Eleventh Senior Brother will be here soon; she will save you!"

Hearing Tang Bao's words, Qing Shui and others did not know how to comfort him for a moment.

Had he finally been clouded by love?

Eleventh Senior Brother is merely a disciple of Mo Yan, the Supreme Venerable.

Even if he came, how could he possibly save Hua Qiangu!

Yet, faced with such a scene, the crowd could not bear to shatter Tang Bao's last shred of hope.

And just then, from the great hall above, a stern, loud shout rang out.

"Begin the execution!"

At that loud shout, the next second, Tang Bao, held back by Qing Shui and others, could no longer care about anything else and rushed straight toward the Execution Pillar.

"Tang Bao!"

"Mother!"

As the words were spoken, a Soul-Devouring Nail had already arrived; just as it seemed about to pierce into Tang Bao's body, a streak of light suddenly flashed!

"Ding!"

In an instant, a faint sound rang out, and then the Soul-Devouring Nail was directly slashed apart by a sword!

As the breeze stirred, Luo Shiyi's body slowly floated into mid-air.

"Phew, lucky I made it in time!"

Glancing back at Tang Bao and Hua Qiangu, Luo Shiyi let out a long sigh of relief.

Yet at this moment, everyone on Xianshan, all the sect members and disciples, were completely stunned.

The one who intervened with that strike.

Wasn't that Luo Shiyi, the eldest senior brother of Xianshan?

Wasn't he a disciple of Mo Yan, the Supreme Venerable?

Has he gone mad? Daring to interfere at such a time!

"Rebellious disciple, kneel down before me at once!"

Just as the crowd was bewildered, Mo Yan above suddenly flew into a rage.

As his disciple, how dare he openly violate the sect rules and save this criminal!

"Master, I beg you, Master, to show some leniency in this matter!"

Facing his former master, the expression in Luo Shiyi's eyes was very complex.

Descending from mid-air, he knelt halfway before Mo Yan, the Supreme Venerable, and said.

"Regarding the matter of the Demon God, this disciple is willing to bear the full responsibility for Hua Qiangu!"

His clear, ringing words echoed throughout the entire Xianshan Immortal Mountain; for a moment, the expressions of the crowd looking at Luo Shiyi changed.

Good heavens, he intends to stand firm to the end!

For what? Could it be because he has fallen in love with Hua Qiangu?

At this moment, in many hearts, this very thought arose.

Even Hua Qiangu, now protected behind Luo Shiyi, was stunned.

"Eleventh Senior Brother, you..."

Gazing at Luo Shiyi's back, Hua Qiangu's eyes grew moist.

On this vast Xianshan, she never expected anyone would treat her in such a manner.

"Good, good, rebellious disciple! You dare do this for mere romantic feelings!"

Mo Yan, the Supreme Venerable above, looking at his disciple who dared to defy him so, suddenly flew into a rage.

As his disciple, he would go to such lengths for a woman.

And even more, he spoke with brazen arrogance, claiming he alone would bear the matter of the Demon God.

You, a mere disciple, can you possibly bear such a burden?

"Rebellious disciple, if you now personally drive the Soul-Devouring Nails into Hua Qiangu's body, I can show leniency and will not expel you from the sect."

As the stern words were spoken, everyone in the scene immediately sensed the fury of Mo Yan, the Supreme Venerable.

Unbidden, everyone's gaze turned to Luo Shiyi at this moment.

Everyone was very curious how Luo Shiyi would choose under such circumstances.

But Luo Shiyi merely turned his head to glance at Hua Qiangu and Tang Bao, then a trace of firmness appeared in his eyes.

If it were the him from before, he would probably be hesitating now.

But after joining the membership group, he had already seen the Undead Knight, and had also seen the Sun Rabbit Young Lord.

Now, he, Luo Shiyi, was going to become the Insect-Sword Immortal!

Slightly turning his head, his gaze fell upon the present Venerable Mo Yan Supreme Lord, and Luo Shiyi directly heavily kowtowed.

"Disciple is unfilial; this is also the last time I shall call you Master!"

"The grace of your teachings can only be repaid in the future!"

The moment these resolute words were spoken, the entire crowd on Mount Changliu instantly erupted.

Crazy, truly crazy!

Luo Shiyi actually, for Hua Qiangu, did not hesitate to break with his own master.

This situation was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

Even Hua Qiangu behind him was dumbfounded at this moment.

She clearly had not expected that Luo Shiyi would actually do this much for her.

For a moment, Hua Qiangu's gaze involuntarily turned to Bai Zihua above.

Unfortunately, her heart already belonged to Bai Zihua.

Eleventh Senior Brother, there is no chance for the two of us!

It was fortunate that Luo Shiyi did not know what Hua Qiangu was thinking at this moment, or he would surely have been at a loss.

Mother-in-law, you're overthinking it; what I like is caterpillars, not you!

And Bai Zihua above, seeing that Luo Shiyi actually liked Hua Qiangu to such an extent, instantly grew displeased.

In his eyes, at some unknown moment, a sliver of killing intent had already flickered.

If not for concern about the crowd present, Bai Zihua would probably have wanted to strike immediately.

But before Bai Zihua could act, Venerable Mo Yan Supreme Lord beside him struck out in fury.

"Unfilial disciple, I'll kill you with my own hands!"

Venerable Mo Yan Supreme Lord, rigidly and stubbornly, regarded the rules of Mount Changliu as more important than anything.

Even though Luo Shiyi was his disciple of many years, when he struck now, it was a killing move from the very first blow!

"Bang!"

A palm strike was launched; Luo Shiyi stood rooted on the spot, taking the blow head-on, and blood involuntarily seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Looking at the master who meant to kill him, Luo Shiyi's expression gradually changed as well.

"Master, the grace of your raising and teaching is hereby repaid in full!"

As the words fell, in an instant, an extremely powerful surge of immortal force erupted from within Luo Shiyi's body.

"Boom!"

The terrifying immortal energy erupted; Venerable Mo Yan Supreme Immortal, who had just struck out a palm, was instantly sent flying backward, blood spurting from his mouth.

For a moment, Venerable Mo Yan Supreme Immortal was completely dumbfounded?

Such powerful strength—was this still his own disciple?

And facing Venerable Mo Yan Supreme Immortal's shock, Luo Shiyi merely took a single step forward and stood in the void.

Everyone move aside—he's about to start showing off!
