Chapter 2103: I've defeated you
Inside the Dong Fu hall, Zuo Jue stood before his father and respectfully recounted the matter.
After hearing Zuo Jue's words, his father remained expressionless, sipping his spirit tea unhurriedly, and only after a moment did he slowly speak.
"Are you in such a hurry?"
"Father, this person has become my heart-devil; if I don't kill him, I fear I will never have a chance to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm in this lifetime."
Zuo Jue is now capable of attempting to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm, but with this heart-devil upon him, attempting the breakthrough under such conditions would almost certainly fail—nine out of ten times.
Upon hearing Zuo Jue's words, his father did not answer immediately but fell into silence.
After roughly a hundred breaths, he slowly nodded and said.
"It's not bad that you came to see me ahead of time; since that's the case, let's make the trip."
"Over these years I've helped Pill King Immortal City with a lot; it's only right they return the favor."
Regarding Zuo Jue's change, his father felt greatly relieved.
If it were the former Zuo Jue, he would likely have gone alone to attack Dao One Immortal Sect.
But the present Zuo Jue still knows to come find him first, asking him to come along.
The former Zuo Jue always believed that no one in the Immortal Realm dared to kill him, because he had a good father.
But after the battle at Pill King Immortal City, Zuo Jue knows that in this world there is no such thing as someone who dares or does not dare to kill.
As the saying goes, even a cornered rabbit will bite; let alone a person.
If truly driven to a dead end, the worst that could happen is mutual destruction; by then, a good father or backing are all nonsense.
Therefore, this time, even though Zuo Jue's heart is set on personally slaying Ye Zhangqing, he still lets his father accompany him.
Soon, Zuo Fu found the master of Pill King Immortal City, Jiang Baihe.
After explaining his purpose, Jiang Baihe, from the bottom of his heart, was unwilling to get involved in this matter.
But as previously mentioned, over these years Zuo Fu has helped Pill King Immortal City with many things.
Now that they have made a request for the first time, refusing them would clearly be inappropriate.
Moreover, even though Zuo Fu was forced to join Pill King Immortal City due to the earlier matter with Cooking King Immortal City,
but given his strength, Pill King Immortal City certainly would not dare to push him too hard.
So, Jiang Baihe pondered briefly and ultimately agreed to Zuo Fu's request.
He let several elders of Pill King Immortal City lead a group to accompany Zuo Jue and his father on a trip to Dao One Immortal Sect.
Zuo Fu was not surprised by this outcome.
The next day, the party set out.
As for Zuo Jue and his father's affairs, Ye Zhangqing here knows nothing about them, after all he hasn't paid much attention.
At present, the second mountain-opening disciple recruitment is underway, and the entire focus of Dao One Immortal Sect is on this matter.
Having learned from the previous experience, Qi Xiong also made thorough preparations.
The original examinations were all changed, and the treasures used in the examinations were also temporarily borrowed from those enshrined.
As for this, the various enshrined ones had no hesitation and readily agreed.
With the mountain-opening day approaching tomorrow, Qi Xiong spent the whole night busy.
Early the next morning, the steward who followed Qi Xiong arrived at the mountain's base.
Seeing the arrival, the crowd outside the Shanmen, even though their cultivation far surpassed that of the steward, still performed respectful salutations, daring not to show the slightest impropriety.
Having waited outside the Shanmen for many days as well, the crowd naturally gained some understanding of Dao One Immortal Sect's situation.
How to put it? This sect really is a strange sort.
From the Sect Master down to the Elders, their cultivation and strength cannot be described as ordinary; they are fundamentally inferior even to some loose cultivators.
But the problem is, the over ten thousand enshrined ones within Dao One Immortal Sect are each remarkable individuals.
Therefore, what the crowd truly fears is not Qi Xiong and his group, but those ten thousand enshrined ones.
Facing the crowd's salutations, this enshrined one spoke no nonsense and immediately announced the start of the mountain-opening disciple recruitment.
But just then, suddenly, a spatial rift appeared in the sky, followed by torrents of terrifying pressure pouring down.
"This is.................."
Faced with this sudden change, the crowd below who had been preparing to conduct the examination froze on the spot.
The examination was also forced to stop.
Judging from these pressures, the intruder's strength is not low; he is very strong.
Moreover, making such a display—releasing pressure before even showing himself—is like a demonstration; clearly the visitor bears ill intent.
For a moment, those participating in the examination ceased movement, quietly watching the developments.
After a few breaths, only a supreme immortal vessel was seen slowly flying out from the spatial rift.
Spatial jumping—this is indeed something only a supreme immortal vessel can accomplish.
And seeing the prominent Pill King Immortal City emblem on the vessel, everyone present was startled.
How could people from Pill King Immortal City appear here? Could it be that Dao One Immortal Sect and Pill King Immortal City still have some connection?
Many were utterly confused, only that steward felt something was wrong.
Ye Zhangqing's grudge with Pill King Immortal City is known to him; the appearance of Pill King Immortal City people here surely isn't for any other reason.
And Zuo Jue and his father made no attempt to hide, naturally drawing instant attention from everyone within the sect.
Qi Xiong, Yun Xiantai, including Ye Zhangqing, all appeared one after another in the air above the sect gate.
Facing the slowly approaching immortal vessel, at the same time Zuo Jue stepped onto its deck.
His gaze immediately locked onto Ye Zhangqing, and he spoke in an icy tone.
"Ye Zhangqing, you didn't expect we could meet again so soon, did you?"
Seeing Zuo Jue, Ye Zhangqing had a moment of surprise, but quickly regained his composure and replied.
Indeed didn't expect it; looks like your father really went to a lot of trouble for you.
Hmph, cut the nonsense; I came here today, you should know why.
Seeking death?
You're seeking death; the disgrace of years ago, today is the time for retribution, Ye Zhangqing—I've come today to take your dog's life.
Haha, and Dao One Immortal Sect, this seat.........
Zuo Fu also walked out from the cabin, but before he could finish speaking, he only felt that from deep within the Dao One Immortal Sect, streams of aura shot up into the sky.
These auras were not as strong as Zuo Fu, but they all reached the Immortal King, Immortal Emperor Realm.
The most crucial problem is, the number of them is somewhat strange—exactly ten thousand streams of aura.
Afterwards, behind Ye Zhangqing, more and more people soon gathered.
Moreover, among these people, Zuo Fu knew many of them; even if they had no prior dealings, he had seen them before.
But why are all these people gathered here?
But the next second, the words spoken by the leading elder left Zuo Fu dumbfounded.
Elder Zuo, you came here to seek revenge?
What do you mean?
Elder Zuo, you may not know, but we are all offerings of the Dao One Immortal Sect; naturally we bear the duty to defend the sect.
Huh???
Upon hearing this, Zuo Jue and his father were utterly confused—what does it mean? Exactly ten thousand people, all offerings of the Dao One Immortal Sect? Which sect has ten thousand offerings?
You, even if you added up all the offerings of Pill King Immortal City, wouldn't exceed a thousand.
