Chapter 439: Heavenly Dao Oath
Looking at Jiangshan's face full of excited anticipation, although he had been deliberately hiding it, facing the hope of life, how could he completely hide it?
Under the gaze of Jiangshan and Pengyun, Yumo spoke unhurriedly.
「Actually, wanting to have a meal, for you two, is also very simple。」
「Brother Yumo, this is.............. 」
Simple? I don't quite understand what Yumo means by this; how could it be simple? That's a food that can increase lifespan!
Facing the two's bewildered expressions, Yumo didn't continue to beat around the bush, speaking bluntly.
「That is to join my Dao Yi Sect, become a family, then naturally you'll be able to eat。」
Upon hearing this, Yuancang and Wangman's eyes lit up instantly; indeed, this old thing is hiding something bad.
Jiangshan and Pengyun are both Great Saint Realm cultivators; if they could be absorbed into the Dao Yi Sect, that would definitely be a good thing.
The most important thing is, compared to the Luo Xia Sect, the few old fellows of the Huang Ji Sect, Jiangshan and Pengyun's personalities are more loyal and honest.
Don't look at the fact that they were enemies before; Jiangshan and Pengyun are absolutely not that kind of treacherous villain, this point Yumo and the other two can confirm.
As the saying goes, those who understand you best are often your enemies; after a lifetime of struggle, Yumo and they can still guarantee this.
Of course, just this is not enough; we still need other means to control the two.
However, for now we need to wait for their reply.
Hearing Yumo's words, Jiangshan and the two were stunned for a moment; after regaining their composure, they immediately spoke with grim faces.
「Yumo, are you teasing us two? 」
They are the founders of the Qing Yun Sect; how could they join the Dao Yi Sect? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Facing Jiangshan's reaction, Yumo had long anticipated it, not in a hurry, speaking nonchalantly.
「Then there's nothing to be done; the food of my Dao Yi Sect cannot be given to outsiders, and since you now know the secret, I can only say sorry。」
「You.............. 」
Seeing Yumo about to act again, Jiangshan and the two's faces also turned grim to the extreme; at this moment, Yuancang beside them hurriedly grabbed Yumo.
「Don't rush to act. 」
Speaking, Yuancang looked toward Jiangshan and the two and said.
「Jiangshan, Pengyun, I ask you: after this battle, how much lifespan do you have left? How long can you still live? 」
Upon hearing that, Jiangshan and the two's faces were complex, they gritted their teeth and said.
「Less than a year. 」
Just now they also performed a forbidden technique; their already meager lifespan decreased further, and without entering closed-door seclusion to sleep, it amounts to about a year.
Upon hearing that, Yuancang continued speaking.
「After one year, you two will perish; at that point, will you still be able to protect the Qing Yun Sect? 」
This time, the two didn't reply; isn't that nonsense? People are dead, how can they protect?
But what do you mean by that?
Seeing the two looking at him with complex expressions, Yuancang spoke with a smile.
「Since that's the case, why not outwardly declare your death, then join my Dao Yi Sect? 」
「Even ants cling to life, let alone humans; and while alive, you two can still protect the Qing Yun Sect when it faces trouble. 」
Feigned death???
Hearing these words, Jiangshan and Pengyun's eyes both flashed a strange color, but soon they spoke again asking.
「If your Dao Yi Sect later intends to act against the Qing Yun Sect, what would we two do then? 」
Put bluntly, it's still worry about the Qing Yun Sect; Yuancang naturally had already thought of this, speaking unhurriedly.
「Do you think a non-threatening Qing Yun Sect would warrant my Dao Yi Sect targeting it? As long as the Qing Yun Sect doesn't provoke us first. 」
Without Jiangshan and the two, what does the Qing Yun Sect have to compare with the Dao Yi Sect?
Conversely, looking at the Dao Yi Sect, with the addition of Jiangshan's two Great Saints, the Supreme Elders directly become five; this gain, that loss, will the Dao Yi Sect still care about the Qing Yun Sect?
By then, it's estimated no need to act; as long as Chen Qingyu isn't a fool, he should know what to do.
Hearing these words, Jiangshan and the two this time didn't reply but fell into a long silence.
And Yuancang also wasn't in a hurry, didn't urge; Yumo secretly gave him a thumbs up, secretly transmitting sound.
「Old thing, you know how to cooperate. 」
Upon hearing that, Yuancang glared at Yumo unhappily, and besides, it's not like you started it.
If it were those two immortals from the Luo Xia Sect, Yumo and the other two would absolutely have no thought of recruiting them.
Because those two immortals have poor character, are sinister, betray their own, absorbing them would be a time bomb that could explode at any time.
But Jiangshan and Pengyun are different, so Yumo would have the intention to recruit them.
As Great Saint Realm beings, Yumo and the other two's vision naturally cannot be compared to ordinary cultivators; the Dao Yi Sect is strong, but if placed in the whole Haotu Shijie, it's simply not enough to look at.
After a long silence, Jiangshan finally spoke.
「Fine, but I'll say this first: no matter the circumstances, we two will not act against the Qing Yun Sect. 」
「Fine, then let's make the Heavenly Dao oath. 」
Upon hearing that, Yumo smiled and nodded.
The Heavenly Dao oath uses one's own essence blood to swear to the Heavenly Dao; the essence blood and Heavenly Dao are bound; violating the oath will bring punishment from the Heavenly Dao.
Regarding this, Jiangshan and the two didn't say much; since they had already made a decision, taking a Heavenly Dao oath was no big deal.
Immediately, each of them forced out a drop of their own essence blood, using essence blood to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, and solemnly swore.
「I, Jiangshan (Pengyun), today voluntarily join the Dao Yi Sect; in this life I will not do anything that harms the Dao Yi Sect's interests; I wish to be a Supreme Elder of the Dao Yi Sect, giving everything for the sect.................. 」
As the oath was completed, their essence blood also directly disappeared, and in the dark they formed a connection with the Heavenly Dao.
「Haha, Brother Jiangshan, Brother Pengyun, from now on we can be fellow sect brothers. 」
At this moment, Yu Mo stepped forward with a smile and gave the two a warm hug.
Seeing Yu Mo's face change in an instant, Jiang Shan's mouth twitched.
"You're still as sinister as ever."
"How can that be called sinister? It's clearly your own choice."
"What choice do we have?"
"Haha, fellow sect brothers don't talk about this. You two go to Spirit City first; I'll go handle something later, dinner will be ready soon. Welcome, Brother Jiang Shan and Brother Peng Yun, to join the Dao Yi Sect."
Knowing what Yu Mo meant, from today onward Jiang Shan and Peng Yun are already dead.
At least that's what is announced to the outside world.
The two had no objections, after all it was what was agreed upon, and this is also the best way to handle it; as for whether they'll be discovered later, that's a matter for the future, to be discussed later.
"Good."
The two nodded in agreement and immediately returned first to Spirit City.
With their cultivation at the Great Saint Realm, even Chen Qingyu below could not possibly notice.
"Let's go, let's tidy up the situation."
Yu Mo said with a smile, and Yuan Cang and Wang Man also nodded.
The battle below continued, but as three terrifying pressures descended, in an instant everyone on the battlefield was suppressed and the fighting paused as well.
Seeing the three of Yu Mo appear in the sky, the Dao Yi Sect side all showed delighted expressions, while the Qing Yun Sect side looked grim, especially Chen Qingyu and the others.
Yu Mo and the three appeared here, yet our ancestor is nowhere to be seen—what does that mean?
