Chapter 78: A Fortuitous Encounter to Seek Justice

~7 min read 1,393 words

Hong Zun flashed and disappeared on the spot; although the starship was fast, there should still be a slim hope to catch up.

Other matters can be discussed, but if anyone today still tries to block me from keeping Changqing here, then don't blame me for being impolite.

He paid no attention to Hong Zun's departure; at this moment, Qing Shi was still in self-doubt, muttering continuously.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could little Wang Yao possibly betray her master?"

"She is so filial; when she has something delicious she thinks of her master, when she encounters something she likes she also thinks of her master—she wouldn't be like this."

In his mind, like a revolving lantern, various memories of the past master and disciple flashed by.

Little Wang Yao wore a sweet smile, clinging to me all day, obedient and well-behaved—how could she possibly be a wayward disciple?

Until, the memory came to when the master and disciple joined Divine Sword Peak of the Dao Yi Sect; the faces of Xu Jie, Liu Shuang, Lu Youyou and others kept surfacing, and a chill also gradually rose in Qing Shi's eyes.

"Yes, it's them, it's those wayward disciples of Hong Zun who corrupted little Wang Yao; it's them, definitely them."

Found it, the culprit has finally been found; yes, it's them, all of them, the ones who destroyed their master-disciple bond have been identified.

Qing Shi shouted angrily to the heavens.

"It's them who corrupted my disciple, my so well-behaved disciple—give me back the former little Wang Yao."

With an angry shout, Qing Shi also vanished into the horizon, closely pursuing Hong Zun.

He wanted to confront them, he wanted Xu Jie and the others to return his little Wang Yao.

"Old drunkard, you can't even teach your own disciple well, yet you've corrupted my disciple—your heart deserves punishment."

The anger in his heart kept rising, and at the same time his speed increased ever faster; whether it was Qing Shi or Hong Zun, both had now pushed their speed to the extreme.

The anger surged to the heavens, while other peak disciples of the Dao Yi Sect sensed the changes on Divine Sword Peak; they all fell silent like cicadas in winter, and even when passing by Divine Sword Peak they would rather detour than approach.

Hong Zun, who had gone ahead first, rushed all the way toward Jinhai Yingdi, his speed absurdly fast.

He flew nonstop without the slightest intention to rest.

However, just after flying tens of thousands of li away, a demon king happened to encounter the swiftly flying Hong Zun, and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Great, truly after searching high and low, this has allowed this king to meet him."

This demon king was none other than the Black Tiger Demon King of Huling.

The previous events had made the Black Tiger Demon King furious, and even now he was so angry his liver ached.

However, because he feared the strength of the Dao Yi Sect, he did not impulsively go to the sect to seek redress.

But now, this is outside, not your Dao Yi Sect, and it just so happened that I encountered Hong Zun alone; the Black Tiger Demon King wanted to ask, are your Divine Sword Peak disciples completely disregarding my Huling?

The Dao Yi Sect and Huling have had constant friction over the years, but almost all of it has been small-scale skirmishes.

Battles at the demon king level have not erupted for many years.

But now, your Dao Yi Sect's Divine Sword Peak disciples have not only stolen this king's treasury, they even dare to speak boastfully, proclaiming they will take it as a mount—this is intolerable.

Without further thought, the Black Tiger Demon King immediately stepped forward to block Hong Zun's path, wanting to get a clear answer.

"Hong Zun, your Divine Sword Peak disciples have stolen this king's treasury, and furthermore.................."

He shouted his angry questioning, thinking Hong Zun would at least stop and give an explanation, but at least he should offer some clarification.

But as the distance drew nearer, the Black Tiger Demon King discovered that this old fellow actually had no intention of stopping at all, his speed undiminished; his face immediately sank again as he said.

"Hong Zun, I am speaking to you............ stop, wait a moment, you................"

Seeing Hong Zun rush straight toward his face, the Black Tiger Demon King was momentarily dazed—what was this old fellow trying to do?

The shoeprint drew ever closer; the Black Tiger Demon King had no time to react before being kicked flying by Hong Zun's foot.

"Get lost."

Flying backward, the Black Tiger Demon King roared angrily.

"Hong Zun, your Dao Yi Sect is bullying people too much, this king ¥%#%¥%"

However, Hong Zun paid no attention at all, flashing and disappearing without a trace.

For the Black Tiger Demon King, that kick just now was not damaging, but the insult was extremely strong.

An entire mountain peak was smashed by the Black Tiger Demon King, but soon it swiftly rose from the ruins, standing upright in the air, gazing in the direction Hong Zun had left.

Its pair of tiger eyes were blood-red, truly appearing as if it wanted to devour someone.

Good, good, now it finally understood why the Divine Sword Peak disciples were so audacious—it turned out the beam was not straight, causing the rafters to warp.

As the Huling Demon King, his cultivation realm, status and position were comparable to Hong Zun's, yet the other side gave him no face at all.

No wonder, no wonder the Divine Sword Peak disciples would do such a thing.

"Hong Zun, this matter the king will certainly not let go lightly................"

Really unable to contain his anger, the Black Tiger Demon King's body surged with violent demonic aura, causing the surrounding space to shift in wind and clouds.

But before he could finish speaking, another puff of a kick came from behind, its great force once again sending the Black Tiger Demon King flying instantly.

"Your grandpa."

The anger in his heart grew even fiercer; turning his head, he saw a figure already speeding away into the horizon.

Although the speed was great, the Black Tiger Demon King still recognized the person's identity.

"Qing Shi, ah.......... this king will surely level your Divine Sword Peak."

Then with a boom, another large mountain was directly smashed to pieces by the Black Tiger Demon King.

"Hong Zun, return my little Wang Yao to me, that once obedient and sensible little Wang Yao............."

He paid no heed to the Black Tiger Demon King; just now Qing Shi saw a monster beast blocking his way, and since it was a monster beast, there was nothing to say—he simply kicked it.

At this very moment, Qing Shi's mind was filled with his precious disciple, his beloved little padded jacket.

The two pursued each other closely, one ahead and one behind; at the same time, the starship carrying the many disciples was also making a full-throttle dash.

"Third martial brother, is this really necessary?"

Watching Xu Jie completely disregard the consumption of spirit stones, he pushed the starship's speed to the extreme, the formation's light blazing brightly, indeed appearing as if it were about to surpass its limits.

Zhao Zhengping said nothing.

Are you rushing to your death?

Ye Zhangqing standing at the side, seeing this, held the railing with both hands, doing his utmost to stay steady.

If we liken the star cruiser to a car from a past life, Xu Jie's accelerator is probably already pressed down to the fuel tank.

Facing Zhao Zhengping's words, Xu Jie kept adding spirit stones while earnestly saying.

"I'm doing this for everyone's good; if we don't hurry, we probably won't reach Jinhai Yingdi."

???

How could we possibly not reach Jinhai Yingdi?

Zhao Zhengping obviously doesn't know how great the determination the master left for junior brother Ye Zhangqing is; even though they have successfully left Divine Sword Peak, the moment they haven't reached Jinhai Yingdi, they cannot let down their guard.

As the saying goes, 'To know a master, ask the disciple'; if my guess is correct, the master should already be on the pursuit route.

Master, having been your disciple for over a hundred years, I've long since figured out your little tricks.
