Chapter 116: Jieyin angrily rebukes Dong Wanggong, great battle erupts!

Wuliang Sihai!

Jieyin and Zhunti gazed arrogantly, their eyes sweeping over the Xiating crowd, their mighty pressure overwhelming, the sense of oppression intense.

Dong Wanggong had also calmed the surging vital energy and blood in his body, his expression grim as he stared at Jieyin and Zhunti.

"Jieyin and Zhunti, how dare you so indulge your disciples to act recklessly?!"

"Hmph, trespassing Wuliang Sihai and occupying our Xiating's fortuitous opportunity."

"Moreover, your methods are vicious, killing our Xiating's strong ones."

"With all this, do you still intend to protect this child today?"

Dong Wanggong spoke his question with a gloomy tone, already regarding Chen Ku as an unforgivable evil in his words.

Hearing his words, Jieyin and Zhunti raised their eyebrows.

This kid has gained another opportunity?

Such fortune, truly cannot be tolerated.

Furthermore, slaying Xiating's strong ones likewise surprised and delighted Jieyin and Zhunti; it seems Chen Ku's strength has increased considerably.

This also made Jieyin and Zhunti feel great joy and relief.

Jieyin and Zhunti thought so, yet they felt Chen Ku had done nothing wrong.

Only saw Zhunti glance askance at Dong Wanggong, then coldly reply:

"Hehe, Dong Wanggong, you say my disciple has occupied your Xiating's opportunity?"

"You really dare to speak nonsense."

"This Wuliang Sihai was originally the dragon clan's territory; your so-called Xiating is merely occupying an island here."

"What right do you have to claim that my disciple's occupation is your Xiating's opportunity?"

These words left Dong Wanggong fuming, his expression stiff, unable to respond.

Before he could think of a rebuttal, Jieyin beside him also spoke:

"Exactly this principle!"

"As for your claim that my disciple killed your Xiating's strong ones, the law of the primordial wilderness is survival of the fittest—Dong Wanggong, do you not understand?"

"If blame is due, it can only be that your Xiating's people are inferior; dying is meaningless."

Hearing this, all beings could not help but suppress laughter.

Good fellow!

Said straightforwardly enough, yet also full of domineering aura.

This is precisely the cruelty of the primordial wilderness: if one's strength is low, they can only be slaughtered at others' whim, with no one to reason with.

Speaking, Jieyin's tone suddenly turned icy cold, his gaze fixed unfavorably on the Xiating crowd.

"Hmph, it's you Xiating who bully the few with many and the small with the large—truly shameless."

"Such conduct, do you even deserve the title of Leader of Male Immortals?"

Compared to Zhunti, Jieyin's words were even more blunt, and he turned the questioning back on Dong Wanggong.

"You......"

Dong Wanggong was furious yet somewhat at a loss for words, unable to respond.

Beside them, seeing his master and uncle angrily rebuke Dong Wanggong, Chen Ku secretly felt delighted.

Indeed, he is destined to be the backbone of the Western Sect!

If it's about trash-talking prowess, probably few in the world could match Jieyin and Zhunti.

Of course, their strength is undoubtedly formidable.

Silently sighing, Chen Ku stopped pretending.

He stepped forward, stared directly at Dong Wanggong, and shouted:

"Dong Wanggong, as the so-called Leader of Xiating, you are actually so foolish."

"Hmph, going to war with us will only let the liches and other forces laugh at your Xiating."

"Do you think your title as Leader of Male Immortals can intimidate many strong ones?"

"After today's battle, your Xiating will likely suffer losses front and back, becoming a stepping stone for others, inviting calamity."

"The word 'foolish' is extremely grating."

Chen Ku's merciless scolding made everyone's expressions strange.

"Damn... Jieyin and Zhunti have arrived, you kid are getting back on your feet again?"

"Before, you were all meek and making excuses."

"The speed of your change of face is truly astonishing."

Shameless!

Truly shameless!

Everyone thought so in their hearts.

However, at present no one has the leisure to scold Chen Ku's 'fox borrowing the tiger's might' act.

On the contrary, his words plunged the Xiating crowd into silence and contemplation.

Without a doubt, Chen Ku's words were pearls of wisdom, without any exaggeration.

Everyone also had no doubt that if things truly reached the step Chen Ku spoke of, the liches and other forces would show no mercy.

It can be said that Xiating now appears overwhelmingly mighty, with tremendous momentum and awe-inspiring pressure.

But in reality, they are already at the brink of life and death.

The outcome of today's battle could very well decide Xiating's future.

Even Dong Wanggong's face alternated between green and purple, gloomy as water, endlessly shifting.

How could he not know that Chen Ku's words are true?

Originally, in Eastern King Duke's plan, once he took action, he would surely win swiftly, capture Chen Ku, and leave no opening for the witch and demon clans to exploit.

Who would have thought that this kid Chen Ku could be so troublesome?

Not only had he repeatedly caused losses to many mighty cultivators of Xiating, but now he had even drawn Jieyin and Zhunti to come, facing off against each other.

The arrow is on the bow; there is no choice but to shoot!

Although Eastern King Duke felt some regret, he now had no way to retreat.

Moreover, at this moment, the scene of the two sides facing off has already been witnessed by countless beings.

If he were to stop now, it would be another major blow to Xiating's reputation.

After pondering for a long time, Eastern King Duke finally spoke coldly:

"Hmph, cut the nonsense!"

"Chen Ku, quickly hand over the Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler; as for the rest, I can let bygones be bygones."

Eastern King Duke brought up the topic again.

Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler!

This supreme treasure has almost become Eastern King Duke's obsession.

Whether a great battle occurs is not important, but the Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler must be obtained.

Even if he does not take the other supreme innate spiritual treasures in Chen Ku's hands, it does not matter.

This is not merely for Xiating's face.

Eastern King Duke clearly understood that if he held the Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler, even when facing the Great One of the Demon Court in the future, he would be able to go head-to-head against that person's Chaos Bell, the supreme treasure of opening heaven.

That Chaos Bell, as one of the three supreme treasures of opening heaven, is unmatched in attack and is also an existence that makes countless mighty cultivators tremble with fear.

Although the Herder Immortal Staff in Eastern King Duke's hand is not weak either, compared to the Chaos Bell it is somewhat lacking.

Only the Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler could possibly match it in battle.

Therefore, it must not be missed!

Upon hearing Eastern King Duke's words, Jieyin and Zhunti raised their eyebrows, greatly surprised.

"Oh? Has the Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler ended up in your hands, kid?"

Jieyin asked this with mixed surprise and delight.

Not to mention Eastern King Duke, even Jieyin and Zhunti were greatly moved by such a primordial merit supreme treasure, unable to remain calm.

Who would have thought that it has now also fallen into the hands of his own disciple?

Zhunti, meanwhile, muttered to himself:

"No wonder... no wonder you've been targeted by Xiating."

Only then did Jieyin and Zhunti fully understand the whole reason.

Previously, Zhunti still felt that Eastern King Duke leading the Xiating army into action was merely to deal with Chen Ku, which seemed somewhat like making a mountain out of a molehill.

But if it were for that Primordial Heaven-Measuring Ruler, a merit supreme treasure, then it would make sense.

Upon hearing Jieyin and Zhunti's words, Chen Ku immediately put on a wronged expression.

"Yes, Master and Uncle-Master are here; let them judge for the disciple."

"The disciple has endured great hardship to obtain this opportunity; how could it just be given away to others?"

Upon hearing this, Jieyin's expression turned stern, and an endless, fierce, domineering aura suddenly arose around him.

"Hmph, that is naturally impossible to compromise."

"Today, if you want to seize my disciple's opportunity, you must first ask whether I agree."

Jieyin stepped forward, shielding Chen Ku behind him, and coldly gazed at Eastern King Duke and the others.

No need for many words; the others also already understood Jieyin and Zhunti's meaning.

If that is the case, further talk is useless.

"Very well, since you insist on this,"

"Then let's battle!"

Eastern King Duke also ceased talking, gave an order, and directly commanded the Xiating strong cultivators to launch a startling assault.

In an instant, the shouts of killing shook the field; Xiating strong cultivators erupted, each displaying various supernatural powers and great techniques, or summoning spiritual treasures, and fiercely charged at Jieyin and Zhunti.

Although Xiating was mighty in numbers and its strong cultivators many,

but seeing this scene, Jieyin and Zhunti remained calm and fearless, their expressions sinking.

"Courting death!"
