Chapter 112: Pig, have you ever given me face?

On the little hill, he crawled and crawled and crawled…

Zhou Tianming finally crawled out of Idiot Cave; he stood outside the cave entrance and stared inside for a few seconds.

He did not act rashly.

Immediately, he grabbed a large rock and hurled it hard into the cave.

"Boom!"

A muffled thud.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, a pained scream came from inside the cave.

Then, a voice sounded again.

"Oh no!"

"He seems to have discovered us."

It was obvious that, no matter how well the few from the Great Dao Sect concealed their aura, in front of the Great Emperor Reincarnate Zhou Tianming, they still leaked a flaw.

"How is this possible? How could he have discovered us?"

"Yeah, we hid so well; how did he find us?"

Steward Liu couldn't be bothered to listen to their nonsense.

He made a quick decision, immediately saying in a deep voice: "Stop the chatter; since he's found us, let's attack."

"Capture him."

Steward Liu first released the aura he had concealed, then suddenly charged at Zhou Tianming.

"Yes!"

The other two also readily agreed and went to apprehend Zhou Tianming.

Seeing the three, Zhou Tianming was startled.

He never expected that the ambush inside was actually the three from the Great Dao Sect.

The three were obviously there to capture him.

"Zhou Tianming, where can you run this time?"

Steward Liu let out a loud shout, raised his palm high, gathered spiritual power in his palm, and unleashed a powerful, unstoppable force at Zhou Tianming.

Wherever this force passed, the air seemed to be torn apart, making a "woo-woo" sound.

Zhou Tianming's heart filled with shock; the enemy not only wanted to capture him, but also to take his life.

However, he quickly calmed down again.

Fortunately, before throwing the stone, he had secretly clenched a Teleportation Talisman in his hand.

He had originally thought that if a wild beast suddenly burst from the cave, he could immediately use the Talisman to escape.

Who could have guessed that this precautionary measure would, by coincidence, be used today to defend against the ambush of those few from the Great Dao Sect?

One could even say it was a blessing in disguise that saved his life.

"Go!"

Zhou Tianming hesitated not, immediately activating the Teleportation Talisman.

In an instant, a soft light enveloped him; in the blink of an eye, his figure vanished without a trace.

"Boom!"

At the very moment Zhou Tianming's figure disappeared, Steward Liu's palm finally slammed heavily onto the ground.

The powerful force left a deep palm print on the ground, sending surrounding soil and stones flying, but it only struck an empty patch.

The strike missed.

Immediately after,

The other two from the Great Dao Sect also hurried to the scene, witnessed what had just happened, and both gasped in shock.

One of them widened his eyes, face full of disbelief, and said: "How is this possible? Despite our meticulous planning and careful layout, this kid still managed to escape."

"Isn't this kid just a waste? How could he possibly react like that?"

The other also furrowed his brow, full of doubt, and echoed: "Yeah, Steward Liu, this kid doesn't look like an ordinary child at all."

"On the contrary, he looks young on the outside but inside is like an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years, deep and scheming, acting with extreme caution."

"Moreover, he seems to always have a Teleportation Talisman at the ready, just in case."

Steward Liu narrowed his eyes, anger and unwillingness flashing in them; his heart was full of worry.

Their group consisted of one strong expert at the Great Saint Late Stage Peak, plus two masters at the Great Saint Middle Stage.

With such a mighty lineup, they thought dealing with a little Qi Refining Realm kid would be easy, yet they never expected him to still escape.

What's more infuriating is that those Teleportation Talismans in Zhou Tianming's hands were originally commissioned by him back in the Great Dao Sect, when he personally tasked the Sect's Talisman Dao Master to craft them.

Who would have thought that now he would capsize on this very thing.

"Steward Liu, what do we do now?" one of them asked.

The other also said: "Yeah, now that Zhou Tianming escaped using the Teleportation Talisman, we have no idea where he went; what should we do?"

Steward Liu slightly narrowed his eyes, a hint of sinister coldness flashing, and said coldly: "What else can we do? Now that this kid has been startled by us, catching him again will be difficult."

"But no matter what, we must find him at all costs; otherwise, if the Sect Master blames us, none of us will get off easy."

Just thinking about the Sect Master's harsh methods and cold temperament, Steward Liu's mouth twitched involuntarily, and a chill rose in his heart.

Upon hearing this,

The two men's expressions hardened, they exchanged a glance, and then also nodded heavily.

They all knew that if this mission failed and they couldn't bring Zhou Tianming back, the Sect Master would definitely make them suffer.

By then, they might not even be able to keep their standing in the Great Dao Sect.

All right!

Steward Liu drew a deep breath, striving to calm himself; he said solemnly, "We must not delay—from now on we split into three routes and meticulously search every corner."

"Even if we have to dig three feet deep, we must find that kid; remember, spare no expense!"

Steward Liu gave the two a solemn warning.

Yes!

As you command!

The two also dared not take it lightly; after all, for the Great Dao Sect elder, this matter was indeed of great importance.

However…

Just as the three were preparing to split into three routes,

Lin Yang, however, suddenly descended before the three.

The three were startled.

They hadn't sensed anything, yet this person just soundlessly landed beside them?

"You are…"

The three asked warily.

"Pig!"

Unexpectedly, after Lin Yang landed, he almost simultaneously uttered those two words as the three asked their question.

The three were stunned.

That name is uncommon.

Lin Yang was also at a loss; he had meant to curse the three as stupid pigs, but unexpectedly they asked who he was first, leaving him the worse for it.

"The word 'pig' is an insult aimed at you three."

That is indeed the case.

He had followed Zhou Tianming all the way here and also sensed that they were lying in wait inside the Stupid Egg Cave.

He had thought he could play out a splendid fantasy drama of a hero saving the disciple, and then Zhou Tianming, moved to tears, would want to take him as his master.

Who would have thought that these three pigs, with such strength, actually let Zhou Tianming escape.

In that case, if not them, who should I scold?

"Bastard!"

"You're truly a beast, daring to call us pigs; you must want your mouth to rot, right?"

Among the three, one gritted his teeth and pointed at Lin Yang, saying.

As for Steward Liu, he merely narrowed his eyes at Lin Yang without speaking.

He just wanted to see what this person intended to do.

Another expert, likewise filled with righteous indignation, prepared to step forward to support the one who spoke first.

But he had just stepped forward.

Boom!

Lin Yang pointed a finger.

The one who spoke first was directly blasted apart by Lin Yang's finger.

Flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Seeing that, the expert who had stepped forward immediately retreated a step, standing beside Steward Liu and staring at Lin Yang.

"What do you intend to—"

Never mind, talking too much gets you killed fast.

He then swallowed the words he was about to say.

And Steward Liu, his narrowed eyes flashing with a cold light, said: "Your Excellency, in front of me, killing my people—have you ever placed me in your eyes?"
