Chapter 498

Bu Yuanting's face was filled with shock—could this astonishingly powerful old monk be a mad monk?

"You must be Bu Yuanting!"

The old monk did not answer but asked instead.

"I am indeed! But may I humbly ask your reverence's name?"

To deprive oneself of control over the celestial qi, though this old monk was unimpressive in appearance and spoke rudely,

Bu Yuanting still maintained basic respect for the powerful.

"I am Old Fahai!"

The old monk was none other than Old Fahai, sent by Master Changsheng to find Bu Yuanting!

"Old monk, you're utterly arrogant!"

One of the Four Crimson Guardians high above, having been ignored for so long, could no longer bear it.

He drew his sword and stabbed downward from the air.

Though Old Fahai had stripped this realm of its control over celestial qi,

the Four Crimson Guardians, even relying solely on their swords, remained extremely dangerous!

The sword thrust from the air unleashed violent true qi.

It formed rings of thick flame clinging to the blade's surface.

At a glance, the power of this strike was not much weaker than the flame sword the Four Crimson Guardians had just combined.

"Master Fahai…"

Bu Yuanting, kind-hearted, spoke up to warn him.

But Old Fahai merely snorted coldly,

"A mayfly trying to shake a great tree—laughable in its overconfidence!"

As he spoke, he raised his thick, bowl-sized staff high, then brought it down heavily.

The celestial qi, once as docile as a cat, suddenly boiled like a cauldron.

The approaching Crimson Guardian, the moment he touched the celestial qi, was instantly engulfed.

Then, as if falling into the ocean, not even a ripple stirred.

The Crimson Guardian vanished into the heavens, as if he had never existed!

"Chi Huo…"

From the void, three cries of anguish echoed.

But these three dared only to mourn once, then slipped away in silence.

Old Fahai's power had surpassed ordinary Mythical Realm beings.

Chi Huo was dead; the other three who came out would only offer their heads for the taking.

Bu Yuanting and the other two watched, their hearts trembling.

This old monk's power was terrifying indeed.

"Bu Yuanting, I am under the god's command to take you back."

After casually disposing of the Crimson Guardian, Old Fahai turned to Bu Yuanting and spoke with serene calm.

"God? What god?"

Bu Yuanting and the other two stared, dumbfounded.

Had another self-proclaimed god appeared in this world?

Gui Chen even thought of Seeing Di Shitian!

That fellow had once been insufferably arrogant, calling himself Seeing Di Shitian, a god.

He founded the Tianmen Sect and lived in the Void Heavenly Realm.

He had pulled off maximum prestige!

But then?

He knelt before Ximen Wudi.

Now he was Ximen Wudi's servant!

So was the god Old Fahai spoke of also like Seeing Di Shitian?

A frog in a well, calling itself a god!

Would it kneel before Ximen Wudi too?

"The god is the lord of the Bu Divine Clan!"

"All of you in the Bu Divine Clan are his descendants."

A complex emotion flickered in Old Fahai's eyes, but he explained anyway.

"Now, the god needs you to return—come with me!"

"To take my father, first cross me."

Bu Jingyun sensed the ill intent in Old Fahai's words and leapt forward, blocking before Bu Yuanting.

Though he had seen Old Fahai instantly kill one of the Crimson Guardians, his nature was one of fearless defiance.

He had now confirmed Bu Yuanting was his father.

Thus, he spoke far more than usual!

"Huh? You call Bu Yuanting father? You're his son?"

Old Fahai, whose attention had been fixed solely on Bu Yuanting, now stared at Bu Jingyun with sudden intensity.

Old Fahai knew better than anyone the true goal of Master Changsheng.

Bu Yuanting was not the best target—Master Changsheng simply had no time left, so he settled for this.

Now seeing Watching Bu Jingyun, a face carved from the very same mold.

The greatest mark of the Bu divine clan!

In Old Fahai's heart, he could not help but feel a measure of relief for the God of Immortality.

Perhaps, bringing Watching Bu Jingyun back, if the God of Immortality were pleased, then his own mission would be considered complete.

"Nonsense!"

Watching Bu Jingyun spoke briefly and to the point.

"Jingyun, don't act rashly!"

Bu Yuanting was overjoyed in his heart, but Old Fahai's strength was far too terrifying.

With such a peak-level expert, it was best not to make an enemy of him.

"Master, you mentioned a god — what does he want you to take me back for?"

"Now you are no longer the primary target."

"So young, yet you, boy, have already reached the world-shaking level — I think the god will surely be pleased."

The look in Old Fahai's eyes as he gazed at Watching Bu Jingyun grew more and more satisfied.

"You're called Watching Bu Jingyun, yes! Then I'd trouble you to come with me for a trip!"

Bringing Watching Bu Jingyun back was absolutely more suitable than Bu Yuanting.

"No! Master, I am willing to go with you."

Bu Yuanting caught the ominous implication in Old Fahai's words — a son not seen for so many years, he had to protect him at this moment.

So he actually agreed directly with Old Fahai, willing to go with him.

"Then come back with this old monk together!"

Old Fahai said lightly,

"If you all return together, the god will only be even more pleased!"

"No! Old Fahai, none of them will go back with you!"

At this very moment, the strange Miss who had just stirred up trouble at the Tongfu Inn suddenly appeared.

With so many experts present, not a single one had detected how she had arrived!

323 If you won't submit, then let's have a fight

"Divine Princess?"

The moment Old Fahai saw the Miss, his old face, which had remained utterly composed, finally shifted.

"How did you get out of the Soul-Searching Palace?"

So this quirky, clever Miss was actually Miss Xue Yuan, the Divine Princess of the Soul-Searching Palace.
