Chapter 10: Good for nothing except tattling—number one at it!

~7 min read 1,303 words

It was under the gaze of Jieyin and Zhunti.

Minghe Laozu descended, finally manifesting before the three.

Chen Ku stared intently, his heart suddenly tightened.

Minghe Laozu, his whole body emanated a shocking killing intent; one glance gave a feeling of chilling dread.

Moreover, his cultivation had reached the quasi-saint realm, comparable to Jieyin and Zhunti, hardly any difference.

Indeed, he is the violent existence who later cultivates "Slay Heaven, Slay Earth, Slay All Beings".

Chen Ku silently sighed.

However, he felt no fear.

With his master and grandmaster, two quasi-saint powerhouses present, could Minghe Laozu still act arrogantly?!

Therefore, Chen Ku hesitated not, stepped forward and said:

"Minghe Daoist friend, the remaining three great banana fans here, being fated with the West, already each have their owners."

"Hehe, Daoist friend, you are a step late."

Chen Ku wore a look of righteous confidence, utterly unbothered.

Facing the Supreme, he must refer to himself as a junior.

After all, the other party's status is noble, strength formidable.

But toward Minghe Laozu, naturally no need for courtesy.

Thus, Chen Ku directly addressed him as "Daoist friend".

That utterly natural demeanor made Jieyin and Zhunti quite impressed.

Alright!

Really thick-skinned, eating his fill!

However, who would have thought, upon hearing Chen Ku's words, Minghe Laozu merely gave him a dark, sinister glance.

Immediately, he ignored him, instead turning to Jieyin and Zhunti.

"I have paid respects to the two Daoist friends, Jieyin and Zhunti!"

"I feel a connection with this place's wind banana fan; it is fitting that I take it."

"The remaining two, I shall leave for the two Daoist friends; what do you think?!"

Minghe, as one of the three thousand guests of the Purple Sky Palace, knows Jieyin and Zhunti, but does not know Chen Ku.

Therefore, he naturally regarded him as an obscure, nameless wandering cultivator.

Hence, he directly ignored Chen Ku and began conversing with Jieyin and Zhunti.

Seeing this, Chen Ku burst out laughing in anger.

"This is basically not treating me as a person?!"

Chen Ku muttered helplessly, yet did not deliberately lower his voice.

Upon hearing this, Jieyin and Zhunti couldn't help but laugh, shaking their heads.

Meanwhile, Minghe Laozu grew even more overbearing.

Suddenly turning, his narrow eyes flashed with a sharp gleam as he stared at Chen Ku, coldly saying:

"Hmph, an existence like an ant."

"You dare to speak of occupying such an innate spiritual treasure?!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ku's face turned black.

Speechless!

Utterly speechless!

As a top-tier expert, Minghe Laozu, you also do this?!

Truly a vivid villainous image.

Since that's the case, don't blame me for being impolite.

Chen Ku felt a surge of anger, immediately... looked toward Jieyin and Zhunti.

"Master, Grandmaster, Minghe Laozu insulted me."

"Disciple Ku, disciple thought of the West, yet does not want to be so humiliated?!"

Chen Ku's face wrote the two words "wronged".

Seeing this, Minghe Laozu was dumbfounded.

Really?!

This isn't right, is it?!

He has seen those who act recklessly without regard for life, or those who are timid and cowardly.

But to tattle at the slightest issue?!

Is this something a cultivator of the Primordial Era could do?!

Moreover, you little brat are a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

And how does this brat have the nerve to act both cowardly and overbearing?!

Minghe Laozu's expression was strange, he remained silent.

On the other side, Jieyin and Zhunti, upon hearing Chen Ku's words, also instantly had black lines across their heads, feeling utterly speechless.

Good fellow!

I thought you little brat could show some backbone, displaying a strong side before Minghe Laozu.

All in all, you little brat are good for nothing except tattling—number one at it?!

Such thick-skinned behavior even left Jieyin and Zhunti somewhat numb.

Unwatchable!

Truly unwatchable!

However, Jieyin and Zhunti also know that if they truly let Chen Ku go head-to-head with the Underworld River Old Ancestor, he would still not be a match for the latter..

Moreover, this matter had best be settled quickly.

Otherwise, if more powerful experts coveting this place's fortune were drawn in, unexpected complications might arise.

Thus, after Zhunti realized Chen Ku's intention, he immediately acted.

"Uncle, come and uphold justice for me!"

With a loud shout, Zhunti leapt up, his Quasi-Sage aura fully revealed, terrifying beyond measure.

At the same time, he gestured with a big hand, and endless immortal light instantly arose, mingling mysteriously, profound and yet more profound.

Seven-colored divine light intertwined, covering the sky and blocking the sun.

Faintly, in Zhunti's hand, a Seven Treasure Wondrous Tree actually came into being.

This is precisely Zhunti's natal spirit treasure, a top-grade innate spirit treasure, its power terrifyingly unmatched.

After all, the Underworld River Old Ancestor is a contemporary of Jieyin and Zhunti; his strength should not be underestimated.

Therefore, as soon as they engaged, Zhunti directly employed such a mighty means.

Moreover, Jieyin beside him also hesitated not, simultaneously acting, unleashing a great divine ability that came down upon the Underworld River Old Ancestor's head and face.

Seeing this, the Underworld River Old Ancestor was dumbfounded.

This damn… you guys really went ahead?!

Even protecting one's calf isn't this protective, right?!

Instantly, the Underworld River Old Ancestor instead flew into a great rage.

"Hmph, I sought to discuss matters amicably with you, yet you two are so impolite."

"If so, then I shall do battle with you!"

Jieyin and Zhunti have not yet attained sainthood, so the Underworld River Old Ancestor naturally has little fear.

Thus, he too is overwhelmingly mighty, fiercely meeting the challenge.

His aura flared, endless bloodlight reappeared, dyeing a radius of tens of millions of li a lurid red, mysterious and unfathomable.

With a wave of both hands, the Primordial Slaughter Sword and the Avici Twin Swords emerged, their cold light gleaming, dancing in an impenetrable flurry.

Each sword directly tore the surrounding void, extraordinarily sharp, making one's scalp tingle.

These are precisely the Underworld River Old Ancestor's two natal spirit treasures, which slay without karmic stain, and are also beings that make all creatures tremble at hearing of them.

For a moment, the three Quasi-Sages fought fiercely together, their momentum astonishing.

However, Chen Ku showed no trace of worry at this time.

What does it matter if he holds the Elemental Slaughter and Avici swords?!

Relying on his master and grandmaster-uncle joining forces, suppressing a single Underworld River Old Ancestor is nothing short of easy, a piece of cake?!

Furthermore, my earlier 'lawsuit' was precisely to divert the Underworld River Old Ancestor's attention, right?

There's absolutely no need to worry!

Chen Ku gave a hehe laugh, then turned his gaze to the Innate Banana Tree.

"If not now to take the treasure, then when?!"

Muttering a sentence, Chen Ku immediately leapt up, directly acted, and began plucking the Three Great Banana Fans.

This scene, naturally, was also seen by Jieyin, Zhunti, and the others.

"Disciple, remember, after you get the treasure, you must definitely share one piece each with your master and grandmaster-uncle."

"You brat, you must not take it all for yourself!"

Jieyin seemed somewhat uneasy as he shouted like that.

Given Jieyin's understanding of Chen Ku, his disciple's shameless nature might well lead him to do such a thing.

Don't let it end up that after all our hard work battling the Underworld River Old Ancestor, we merely benefit that brat Chen Ku?!

Meanwhile, the Underworld River Old Ancestor was furious beyond restraint.

"Villain, dare you?!"

The Underworld River Old Ancestor was both choked with anger and speechless.

Just what sort of people are these?!

"By common sense, shouldn't it be that I and Jieyin and Zhunti decide the victor first, then determine the treasure's ownership?!"

"But right now, Chen Ku is taking advantage of the opening?!"

You really have no shame!
