Chapter 19: Arrogant, Domineering, and Unbridled

"On the way back to the Manghuang Forest with my soul body, I happened to run into Lu Qingyan and his companions while they were hunting."

Bahuang Laozu trembled: "His companions were all killed by a demonic beast attack, so I had no choice but to possess him."

"My soul body was partially corroded in the Dark Turbid Current and was very weak; I had to find someone to possess immediately."

He feared that Lu Tianyu had a good relationship with Lu Qingyan and would destroy his soul to avenge Lu Qingyan.

Lu Tianyu's brows knit together: "So, Lu Qingyan is already dead."

"You were not satisfied after possessing Lu Qingyan; his aptitude was poor, so you kept looking for a new target."

"A few days ago, I displayed my strength, so you prepared to possess me?"

At this moment, he had roughly guessed the intentions of Bahuang.

"Yes, that is the case!"

Bahuang Laozu stammered: "I, I had no other choice."

"My soul body was weak, and possessing an ancestor of the Huang Clan was not realistic."

"I also had the thought of possessing the Bahuang Family Head, but the success rate was only fifty percent, and I dared not gamble."

"My own foundation was not very good, so I wanted to possess someone with superior talent. I have cultivation experience, so my growth speed would be very fast."

Speaking to this point, he paused: "Later I discovered you, but I didn't expect to fall into your hands."

He spoke truthfully, not daring to hide the slightest bit: "I beg the Saint Son to spare my life."

"I can sign a Master-Servant Contract with the Saint Son, pledge my loyalty to the Saint Son for life, and never betray you!"

Bahuang Laozu knew very well that it was uncertain whether he could survive at all.

He had wanted to possess Lu Tianyu; if it were an ordinary person, they would not easily let him go.

"You are quite honest."

The corners of Lu Tianyu's mouth curled up slightly: "As long as you behave well, signing a Master-Servant Contract is not out of the question."

"However, I must observe you first."

Signing a Master-Servant Contract with Bahuang Laozu was not bad; he could use his name to do many things.

But he could not agree immediately.

Who knew what other trump cards Bahuang Laozu might have.

Having practiced Soul Dual Cultivation with the Qian Gu Nu Di for many years, he knew that any old monster who had cultivated for over a thousand years had many backup plans.

Bahuang Laozu had lived for nearly ten thousand years, so he could not be careless.

Lu Tianyu sensed something and suddenly looked up.

A gray-robed figure descended from the sky and landed in front of Bahuang Laozu.

This person had white hair and a white beard, yet his complexion was ruddy.

Before Lu Tianyu could ask, Bahuang Laozu took the initiative to explain: "This is my Clone."

"After I advanced to the Clone Realm, I separated a strand of my soul into a Ten-Thousand-Year Ginseng King and refined this clone through secret techniques."

"After I advanced, I looked for treasures to help the clone advance; now he is also at the Void Piercing stage, though his combat power is less than one-third of my original body."

Lu Tianyu smiled slightly: "This is already enough."

"With this clone of yours, I can unify Bahuang."

"Those people have arrived; I will go out and take a look first."

He stood up: "You hide here for now; when I tell you to act, you act, do you understand?"

As Lu Tianyu spoke, he formed seals with both hands and struck a soul imprint into the Divine Sense Sea of Bahuang Laozu's clone.

Then he walked out of the pit step by step.

"I will obey the Saint Son."

Bahuang Laozu wore a smile on his face, but his heart was bitter to the extreme.

He did not expect Lu Tianyu to be so cautious, even thinking to control his clone.

His original plan was not to provoke Lu Tianyu first, and wait until he had a hundred percent certainty to control the clone to attack Lu Tianyu.

If that didn't work, he would just kill Lu Tianyu directly.

But he did not expect Lu Tianyu to plant a Restriction on his clone's soul as well.

And this kind of Restriction was extremely powerful; he could not solve it at all and could not resist!

Thinking that he would have to work for Lu Tianyu for the rest of his life, he felt so stifled he could explode.

I am, at any rate, a Void Piercing stage cultivator and an ancestor of the Bahuang Star Domain, yet I have been manipulated by a Body Refiner junior.

The most tragic thing in the world is an elephant being easily manipulated by an ant!

Lu Tianyu had just walked out of the pit.

He immediately felt over a hundred malicious, murderous Divine Senses scanning over him without restraint.

They covered his entire body, locking onto him firmly.

Among them, a dozen Divine Senses were quite powerful, clearly Nascent Soul peak cultivators.

There were also four or five more obscure auras, which were actually Clone Realm cultivators.

The two most powerful among them had auras that had already reached the peak of the Clone Realm.

Clearly.

These people completely regarded him as meat on a chopping block, to be slaughtered at will!

They were not afraid of Lu Tianyu discovering them at all; in any case, Lu Tianyu could not escape, so what if he discovered them?

We have so many people, and you are just one person; you have no way to escape!

The corners of Lu Tianyu's mouth curled up slightly.

He was worried that not enough people would come, otherwise Bahuang Laozu's clone would have no use.

It seems barely acceptable for now.

Swoosh!

Lu Tianyu leaped to the top of a large tree and shouted aloud, "Since you thieves have arrived, all of you, get out here!"

"If I were you, I would invite the most powerful people in your clans, and it would be best to invite your Ancestors as well!"

"Otherwise, you will all die with regrets!"

Arrogant, domineering, and unbridled!

When he spoke, he deliberately infused his true Qi, which entered everyone's ears.

His tone carried a sense of disdain and arrogance.

It also carried a thick intent to kill!

Since these people were all here to take his life, how could he possibly show them any mercy!

As soon as his voice fell, a series of angry shouts erupted all around.

"Arrogant and ignorant!"

"You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"

"Your death is imminent, yet you are still stubborn; it is nothing but a deathbed struggle!"

"If you want to see the King of Hell early, there is no need to use such methods!"

The four groups of people all threw out harsh words, yet not a single group made the first move.

Their goals were different.

Most of them wanted to capture Lu Tianyu to force the secret of the Forbidden Abyss out of him.

A very small portion wanted to kill Lu Tianyu directly; this monster was too much of an eyesore and overshadowed their own brilliance.

The person who struck first would naturally let the others reap the benefits.

But then, a sharp shout broke the silence.

A figure in purple robes arrived piloting a storied boat, with a stunningly beautiful woman standing behind him.

The figure in purple robes looked down at Lu Tianyu from above: "Lu Tianyu, today is your doomsday. Do you really think you still have a chance to turn the tables?"

"Even if everyone from your Donghuang Clan came, they couldn't save you!"

"You will surely die today!"

This person stepped on a flying sword, his robes fluttering; it was none other than the Saint Son of the Nanhuang Clan, Li Yuanhao!

He pointed at Lu Tianyu's nose: "Lu Tianyu, last time your father killed my subordinates, this debt must be settled on your head."

"My fiancée came to you to break off the engagement, you crippled her subordinates and humiliated her; this debt must also be settled!"

Li Yuanhao felt regret at this moment.

He had wanted to follow quietly to capture Lu Tianyu and torture him properly.

But he had not expected that people from Xihuang, the Southwestern Wasteland, and Beihuang would all come; he was afraid he would not have that opportunity now.

However, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired!

He could be the vanguard; beating Lu Tianyu up would count as avenging his subordinates.

As the Li Clan of Nanhuang was one of the top three clans among the Bahuang Eight Clans, the other clans would give him some face.

Additionally, for the sake of Liu Qingyan's reputation, he still had to provide an explanation.

Lu Tianyu was slightly stunned, and he was a bit confused: "Stole your fiancée?"

"When did that happen?"
