Chapter 71: Where did this beast come from, daring to bark so rudely?!

After all, the Three Pure Ones are all Saints; even traveling from Kunlun Mountain, they took less time than Duobao, who was already in the vicinity.

At this moment, they were watching Duobao from the sky below.

Seeing Duobao chatting and laughing with a few weak members of the Human Race, Yuanshi felt somewhat displeased and could not help but say to Tongtian, "Third Brother, is this the fine disciple you have taught?"

Tongtian was taken aback: "Second Brother, what do you mean by this? Is there something Duobao has done wrong?"

Yuanshi said angrily, "Do you not think that he is losing all decorum by chatting and laughing with a few ant-like humans? It truly brings shame upon the face of us Three Pure Ones!"

Hearing this, Tongtian could not help but frown, feeling somewhat helpless.

His Second Brother had always placed the greatest importance on background and origin, and loved to categorize all living beings into various ranks; it was not unexpected that he would say such things.

He, on the other hand, was the exact opposite, believing that all living beings were equal and all had the opportunity to attain the Dao; the doctrine of his Jie Sect was to provide education to all without discrimination, so his disciples came from all sorts of backgrounds and origins, and most were like him, holding no prejudice against ordinary living beings.

Therefore, in his view, Duobao's current actions were not improper in the slightest.

However, Yuanshi's nitpicking made him somewhat displeased, so he said, "Second Brother, that is not the way to put it! The Human Race may be weak, but their potential is not small. Not to mention, Eldest Brother even established the Ren Sect based on the Human Race; does Second Brother think that Eldest Brother has also lost decorum?"

Yuanshi's face darkened, and he immediately defended himself: "Do not speak nonsense. When has this poor Daoist ever had such an intention? Furthermore, Eldest Brother established a sect; how can your disciple be compared to Eldest Brother?"

Laozi waved his hand and said, "Enough, do not argue pointlessly anymore!"

Tongtian was also too lazy to argue further with Yuanshi; he simply looked at Laozi and asked, "Eldest Brother, we are ahead of the Zhushan Tribe; what do you intend to do?"

Yuanshi also looked at Laozi.

Laozi said slowly, "Xuandu is not far from here either; let him test the Human Race first before we make a decision!"

Yuanshi and Tongtian both nodded one after another.

Because the Twelve Ancestral Witches were still in the Zhushan Tribe, they did not rashly get too close at this time, but instead found a place nearby to hide their figures while waiting for the arrival of Xuandu.

Sure enough, after another an hour had passed, Xuandu had indeed arrived in the vicinity.

Moreover, beside Xuandu was another person, who was none other than the proud disciple under Yuanshi—Guangchengzi!

Because both had set out from Kunlun Mountain, they arrived at the Zhushan Tribe together at this time.

They did not know that the Three Pure Ones had already arrived here in person.

Having arrived near the Zhushan Tribe and ascertained its location, Xuandu could not help but ponder, considering how exactly to complete his mission.

Guangchengzi, however, did not care about all that and flew directly toward the sky above the Zhushan Tribe.

Inside the Zhushan Tribe.

Duobao, who had arrived here a step earlier, was in no rush to reveal the purpose of his visit.

He simply followed a few humans around out of curiosity, observing everything within the Zhushan Tribe.

Having traveled through the Great Desolation, he had naturally seen many human tribes.

Yet, within this tribe before his eyes, there were quite a few things he had never seen before.

Upon asking out of curiosity, he learned that they were all created by Lu Yun.

Learning this, Duobao felt a sense of realization: it seems that this Lu Yun is indeed somewhat special; no wonder the Eldest Martial Uncle values him so much, even sending Xuandu here in person to take him as a disciple, and having this poor Taoist and Guangchengzi come to assist! What surprised Duobao even more was that there were actually quite a few members of the Wu Clan in this tribe!

And every one of them was a Great Witch, with several even stronger than him!

Duobao asked the humans who had brought him here and learned that these members of the Wu Clan were also guests of the Zhushan Tribe, and that Lu Yun was hosting them here.

What he saw was only a small portion; many more had gone out to hunt.

While this made Duobao marvel once again at Lu Yun's capabilities, he also secretly rejoiced: fortunately, this poor Daoist did not do anything impolite upon arriving in this tribe.

Otherwise, given the temperament of these members of the Wu Clan, I fear they would not have been polite to me!

In fact, many members of the Wu Clan were indeed curious about Duobao's arrival.

However, upon learning that he was also here as a guest to taste the delicious food, they stopped caring.

The gaze of certain members of the Wu Clan even held a bit more appreciation, as if they felt Duobao had the same eye and taste as them!

A few Great Witches had even just finished cooking plenty of food and enthusiastically invited Duobao to come and eat with them!

Facing such an invitation, Duobao felt a very strange sensation.

In the past, he had avoided contact with the Wu Clan as much as possible, never imagining that one day he would be dining at the same table as a group of Great Witches! Just then—

"Where is Lu Yun? Come out immediately to meet this poor Daoist!"

This arrogant voice, like rolling thunder, exploded directly within the Zhushan Tribe, instantly leaving Duobao somewhat stunned.

"This... is this Guangchengzi's voice?" "Has he gone mad?!"

He had just been thinking about whether he should find a time to go out, meet up with Xuandu and Guangchengzi, tell them the information he knew, and discuss a strategy for action.

Who would have thought that before he even had a chance to go out, Guangchengzi had already arrived, and appeared with such an arrogant posture.

This made him feel that things were going poorly.

Sure enough, this shout immediately caused the humans and members of the Wu Clan in the Zhushan Tribe to look over one after another.

Immediately, Duobao saw many humans panicking.

Clearly, they were accustomed to living in the humbleness of the Great Desolation's lowest rungs, and suddenly being scolded like this by an "Immortal" made them feel afraid subconsciously.

The expressions of the members of the Wu Clan, however, all sank.

The members of the Wu Clan were naturally hot-tempered; how could they endure being scolded like this?

Although the target of the scolding was Lu Yun, it still made them feel very displeased! After all, the Wu Clan respected the strong most, and although Lu Yun's combat power was temporarily not as good as theirs, his culinary skills were already superb, which had long since made them admire him endlessly; how could they allow an outsider to scold him like this? Therefore, almost the instant Guangchengzi's voice fell, a roar erupted from the mouth of the Great Witch who had just invited Duobao to eat.

"Where did this beast come from, daring to bark so rudely?!"

Guangchengzi, who had just flown into the Zhushan Tribe, had already seen the massive Stone Palace and guessed that it must be a special place, and was about to fly toward it.

Unexpectedly, before he could even get close to the Stone Palace, he heard these words coming from another direction and could not help but be furious.

He shouted angrily: "Presumptuous! Who dares to insult this poor Daoist?!"

The moment the words left his mouth, his expression changed violently.

Because he felt a terrifying pressure sweeping toward him, which instantly made it difficult for him to maintain his flight, causing him to plummet directly toward the ground!

This is... the power of a Great Witch?!

Guangchengzi never expected that within this tiny Human Tribe, there would actually exist a Great Witch! His master had never told him about this at all!

And just as he was filled with doubt and uncertainty, one after another, powerful figures began to gather toward him.

Only then did he discover that the Great Witches hidden within this tiny Human Tribe were not just one, but a whole group! Could it be that they had found the wrong place, and this was actually a Wu Clan tribe, not a Human Tribe?...

In the distance, atop a mountain peak.

The Three Pure Ones witnessed all of this, and at this moment, they all fell into silence.

Tongtian glanced at Yuanshi and said indifferently, "Second Brother, your disciple... seems to be even more lacking in decorum than Duobao!"

However, when he thought about it carefully, this Guangchengzi's style of conduct was exactly the same as his Second Brother Yuanshi's!

It seemed that ever since they, the Three Pure Ones, succeeded in Proving the Dao and Becoming a Saint, their disciples had started to become arrogant one by one, not taking other factions seriously.

This cannot go on!

Yuanshi's expression, however, darkened at this moment, and he said angrily, "These damned members of the Wu Clan, do they actually intend to bully this poor Daoist's disciple!"

Only then did Tongtian realize that the reason Yuanshi's expression was so ugly was not because he felt there was any problem with Guangchengzi's behavior, but because someone had disciplined his disciple! For a moment, Tongtian felt even more disappointed in his Second Brother.

How had he not noticed before that his Second Brother was so unreasonable?

Yuanshi, however, clearly had no intention of caring about Tongtian's feelings at this moment and was about to take action directly toward the Zhushan Tribe.

"Wait!"

Tongtian finally could not bear it any longer, directly blocked Yuanshi, and said, "Second Brother, are you really going to lower your status and, as a dignified Saint, personally take action against those members of the Wu Clan?"

Yuanshi swept a cold glance at him and retorted, "Could it be that you want this poor Daoist to watch helplessly as my own disciple is bullied?"

Guangchengzi brought this upon himself! These words were on the tip of his tongue, but in the end, Tongtian did not say them.

He only said helplessly, "Have you forgotten the purpose of Eldest Brother's trip? If you take action directly now, how do you expect Eldest Brother to take on disciples afterward?"

Only then did Yuanshi realize this matter, and for a moment, he looked at Laozi with some embarrassment.

Laozi, however, remained expressionless.

He only said indifferently, "Let us watch for now! With us watching, those members of the Wu Clan cannot harm Guangchengzi."

Tongtian agreed, saying, "Indeed! Furthermore, with Xuandu and Duobao there, it is impossible for them to watch Guangchengzi be bullied!"

Only then did Yuanshi completely abandon the thought of taking action and cast his gaze back toward Guangchengzi's side.

Sure enough, Xuandu, who had originally been outside the Zhushan Tribe, saw that the situation was not good, hurriedly flew inside, and landed beside Guangchengzi.

Duobao, who was inside the Zhushan Tribe, also quickly rushed toward Guangchengzi's side.
