Chapter 545: Bullying Me (13)

"Bully me?"

Hu Yiyi was clearly stunned after hearing Ren Yidao's wild words.

He truly had not expected that he would one day hear such a ridiculous and amusing sentence.

Bully?

He wants to bully me?

The ancestor of the Hu Family, who had already lived for nearly a thousand years, was amused and burst into unseemly, loud laughter.

"Ha! Hahahaha!"

He looked at the youth opposite him, whose expression was serious and did not seem to be joking, and just as he was about to speak, he was amused into laughter again.

He simply could not help it.

When Hu Yiyi was young, he had also roamed the pugilistic world of the Eastern Wasteland, and even back then, no one had ever dared to stand before him and say such a thing.

With a Protector following him at all times, it had always been he, the great prodigy Hu, bullying others; how could anyone ever come to bully him?

Who could have imagined that now that he had become a family ancestor and had stepped into the Wenda zhi Jing, he would hear these words from the mouth of a junior.

This was simply too funny!

"Hahahaha, interesting! Truly too interesting!"

Because his terrible mood from the near-destruction of his family and being toyed with by Zhang Mang had improved, Hu Yiyi asked with great delight: "Hey, you bold and reckless brat! What is your name?"

"I am Ren Yidao, Zhang Mang's master."

The youth opposite bowed slightly, performing a graceful salute, then chuckled:

"Although you might not believe it now, I really, truly am here to bully you."

Hu Yiyi's expression was half-strained; he knew there was something strange about the other party, but he just could not help but want to laugh.

A brat with strength no higher than Void Refinement, or at most Formless, what are you going to use to bully this ancestor?

"You are that little thing's master, right? Oh, I remember now, he once threatened me before, saying that you would definitely avenge him." Hu Yiyi sneered, killing intent and mockery surging in his eyes.

"He really said that?" Ren Yidao blinked, the smile on his face becoming a bit more sincere.

"He is a good child, he didn't lose face for his master."

For a mortal who hadn't even stepped onto the path of cultivation to say such a thing to one in the Wenda zhi Jing, this was no longer just a matter of having extraordinary courage; it was truly being fearless.

Very good.

As expected of the disciple I, Huhu, value; although he is a bit worse than his master, he is already quite good.

Seeing that Ren Yidao not only didn't think Zhang Mang had done anything wrong but even raised his eyebrows in pleasant surprise, Hu Yiyi frowned.

Could it be that there really is something strange?

But soon, Hu Yiyi cast this thought out of his mind and snorted coldly:

"You two are truly worthy of being master and disciple; this look of not knowing the immensity of Heaven and Earth is carved from the same mold."

"One is a fool who trusts his master blindly, and the other is a fool who doesn't know his own weight."

Hu Yiyi arrogantly placed his hands behind his back, looking with contempt at the smiling youth opposite him.

"Come."

"I will stand right here; you may strike as you please. This ancestor wants to see, how exactly do you intend to bully me?"

This ancestor wants to see, what exactly is your confidence that makes you dare to spout such nonsense in front of me!?

"Before that, I will confirm with you one last time: are you really not planning to hand Zhang Mang over to me?"

"Aren't you going to bully me? Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and make your move! If you don't strike now, forget about your disciple, even you will be staying here!"

"Is that so? Fine." Ren Yidao shook his head with a light laugh, sighing to himself: "I've lived this long and have never heard such a strange request, actually asking me to bully him..."

It's too weird, brothers.

Everyone has seen it now; it is this old man who is failing to act his age and has special hobbies; it is not that I, Huhu, took the initiative to bully him!

Seeing that Ren Yidao finally stopped dawdling, a smile curled at the corner of Hu Yiyi's mouth.

He was already prepared; he would wait for Ren Yidao to make his move, then break his methods in the most violent way possible.

He wanted to crush the other party's confidence and dignity together.

Hu Yiyi wanted to teach this reckless brat a painful lesson!

The strong must not be lightly insulted!

The greatest rule between this Heaven and Earth is the rule of the strong!

Ren Yidao stopped talking nonsense, flipped off the back of the silver wolf, and walked slowly toward Hu Yiyi.

He walked unhurriedly, looking as relaxed and natural as if he were strolling through a forest.

Clang—

He drew the Sanlu Sword and walked with it, yet there was no fierce or baleful aura about him; instead, a sense of elegance emerged.

But as Ren Yidao took his steps and the distance between the two grew closer, Hu Yiyi's expression changed.

"This..."

Gradually, Hu Yiyi actually felt a powerful and dangerous aura from the other party.

"This is actually... Momentum!"

Yes, there was a Momentum on this youth.

And it was an astonishing, indomitable Momentum!

"Damn it! How could he grasp this now!?" Hu Yiyi was jealous, jealous to the point of almost going mad.

This was Momentum, and it was also Dao.

This Momentum was something Ren Yidao had accumulated bit by bit over these years.

Every victory in battle, every act of following his heart, every instance of unity between knowledge and action—gradually accumulated and slowly explored, it was the Dao that belonged uniquely to him.

It is not the King's Way, nor is it the Hegemon's Way.

It is... the Freedom Dao.

If one wishes to be human, one is human; if one wishes to be a demon, one is a demon. There are no obstacles, and there is nothing improper about it.

If one wishes to be a good person, one does good; if one wishes to be a villain, one does evil. Morality will never become a shackle that restrains him.

If one wishes to become a god and receive offerings, one spreads faith; when one no longer wishes to, one easily severs the connection.

Not restrained by any external forces, not bound by any others, and impossible to be imprisoned by any shackles.

This is a Freedom Great Dao that is free and unfettered, following one's heart, and acting according to one's nature.

This is Ren Yidao's... Freedom Dao.

Although Ren Yidao has not yet stepped into the Void-less stage, intentionally suppressing his advancement due to a slight deficiency in both Dharma Power and mental strength, he has already sought out his own Dao in advance.

Yes, he had already successfully completed Questioning the Heart and seeking the Dao while in the Void-Refining stage, making preparations for the future early on. The bottleneck of Asking Dao does not exist for him; he can break through and step into Asking Dao shortly after crossing into the Void-less stage.

Ren Yidao does not even know how his current realm should be classified; is it quasi-Void-less? Or is it quasi-Asking Dao?

It has the aesthetic of being directly admitted to a doctoral program after being recommended for postgraduate studies.

Family, it seems I, Huhu, have been recommended for the Void-less stage and am going straight for Asking Dao.

Ren Yidao does not think anything of this, but to Hu Yiyi, who spent almost his entire life searching in the Void-less stage and only luckily stepped into Asking Dao with the help of evil arts after his clansmen died tragically, this is simply showing off to him and sneering at his incompetence.

This is naked showing off!

"Impossible, this is impossible!!! If he can grope for the Dao now, then his future... No, this child must not be left alive!" After confirming Ren Yidao's talent, Hu Yiyi's attitude changed.

He developed a murderous intent; he must keep this brat here, not let him return to the outside world, and not give him a chance to grow!

That Zhang Mang's talent was already astonishing; not only is his constitution special, but his temperament is mature. He will surely become a great threat to the Hu Family in the future, so he cannot be given a chance to grow.

And now it seems, Zhang Mang's master's talent is even above his!

Dangerous.

Very dangerous!!!

He kidnapped his disciple, and the feud between the two sides has already been forged. In the future, there is only the possibility of one side dying.

Kill him.

Right here!

Right now!!!

"No, not only must I kill him, I must also seize his bloodline! His blood must be even stronger than my Hu Family's blood!!!"

Hu Yiyi's method of advancing to Asking Dao was very simple, and also very cruel.

He absorbed and refined the bloodlines of all the clansmen who died tragically in that disaster and fused them into his own body, forcibly pushing his own bloodline to the level of Half-Demon blood, finally succeeding in breaking through the barrier.

"Not just him, afterwards I will also seize that little brat's blood! Dig out his eyes and refine them into a Supreme Treasure!"

Murderous intent surged in Hu Yiyi's heart, and greed swelled within him, but on the surface, he did not reveal a thing, remaining in that arrogant manner, coldly watching the youth approaching step by step.

He is no longer prepared to be arrogant and wait for the other party to make a move; as long as there is an opportunity, he will use thunderous means at the first moment!

One hundred zhang.

Fifty zhang.

Thirty zhang!

Although this distance is already enough for Hu Yiyi to make a move, he is still enduring.

As an old monster who has lived long enough to become a spirit, he has enough patience; he is waiting for an opportunity to kill with one blow!

A little closer.

Just a little closer!

He endured, suppressing the aura surging on his body, his breathing becoming slightly hurried... Imagining everything that would happen next, Hu Yiyi could not help but laugh.

And just at this moment, Ren Yidao stopped his steps, and also laughed as well.

However, Hu Yiyi's laugh was arrogant, disdainful, and cruel.

While Ren Yidao's smile, no matter how one looked at it, revealed a sense of eeriness.

Why did he stop?

Did he discover it?

Although Hu Yiyi was somewhat surprised, on the surface he still revealed an unhappy look, coldly rebuking: "Are you afraid? Heh, if you are afraid, then hurry up and get out of here!"

And he shouted loudly in his heart:

Don't leave!

Give me anger!

Attack me in a state of loss of composure!

"You say I am afraid?"

Ren Yidao shook his head and smiled: "No, I just remembered one thing; my introduction of myself just now was not comprehensive enough, and that is somewhat unfair to you."

He is currently standing at a distance of twenty zhang from Hu Yiyi. For cultivators of their level, at this distance, both sides are almost standing face-to-face, and they can attack the other party as soon as they make a move.

And he deliberately got so close for only one purpose... he wants to carefully appreciate the other party's expression.

Ren Yidao looked at Hu Yiyi with a bright smile and said softly:

"The person, I killed."

Just after Hu Yiyi did not understand what these words meant, Ren Yidao continued:

"After killing him, I used his identity to kill the offspring of the East Sea Dragon King."

"You guessed right, that Hu Wanwan whom the East Sea Dragon King is hunting down is actually me."

!!!

Hu Yiyi's breathing became hurried in this instant, the disguise on the surface completely failed, and he glared at the youth before him in a wild rage, growling: "It is you!!!"

"Was it you who killed Wan'er!?"

"Was all of that done by you!? Was it all because of you!?"

Ahhh!!!

A roar that sounded inhuman erupted from Hu Yiyi's throat, his eyes blood-red as he stared fixedly at the enemy standing within arm's reach.

"You deserve to die!"

It was all him!

It was all because of this person!

My Hu Family's thousand-year legacy, it's all gone!

It was all because of him!?

"Yes, it was all because of me."

The youth nodded and smiled as he opened his arms toward the old man.

"So, don't hesitate anymore, take your revenge on me."

Ren Yidao's smile was radiant; he beckoned with his finger toward the enraged Hu Family ancestor and joyfully let out a whistle used for teasing a dog.

"Come."
