School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master Chapter 2305 - 2391: Dragged into the Grove
Previously on School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master...
Zhao Han also let out a sigh.
The Black Feathered Chicken didn’t say anything.
Chen Nan shook his head. "You guys should already have a feel for that old Taoist’s personality by now. If it’s something he wants to do, he’s definitely going to do it. If it’s something he doesn’t want to do, the more we beg him, the less willing he’ll be. Now he wants to give Tao Tian three palms; I’m afraid we can’t stop this."
Hearing Chen Nan’s words, everyone shook their heads.
This old Taoist appeared in such a bizarre way, and his strength is downright monstrous. He probably doesn’t belong to the Outer Domain.
Otherwise, even a Top Supreme, facing someone as powerful as Tao Tian, couldn’t possibly absorb all of his power.
Just as Ziwei Taoist was about to make a move, his crafty eyes darted over toward where Chen Nan was.
Seeing that Chen Nan actually wasn’t doing anything, he cursed under his breath, "Damned brat, damn it, if you begged this old Taoist, maybe I’d give you some face. Damn you, does this old Taoist really look like he can kill the Holy Demon Race?"
He struck in an instant.
"Pa! Pa! Pa!"
Three palms—Ziwei Taoist struck in an instant.
The next moment, Tao Tian, whose eyes had been closed, slowly opened them. He stared in disbelief at his chest.
He murmured, "Senior..."
"What senior, damn it, you hit this old Taoist, so now the old Taoist is returning three palms to you." Ziwei Taoist snorted. "We’re even now."
But right at that moment, countless wounds suddenly split open all over his body, and blood gushed out of them.
This scene left Tao Tian and Chen Nan’s group utterly stunned.
"Idiot, this... what’s going on?"
Su Qingqing asked.
Chen Nan shook his head. "I don’t know either. But Ziwei Taoist clearly just now mobilized the Power of Heaven and Earth, yet he didn’t release it onto Tao Tian. Instead, that power is exploding on his own body. But for it to injure him this badly—it doesn’t really add up."
The Black Feathered Chicken’s crafty chicken eyes spun around, as if it had seen through something.
"The Dao Ancestor aura on Ziwei Taoist is countless times stronger than mine. My previous life was a Dao Ancestor of the Tao Realm; this Ziwei Taoist... is probably from the Outer World, maybe even..."
Zhao Han murmured, shaking his head. "He doesn’t use any Divine Skills or Cultivation Technique, yet the Power of Heaven and Earth is his to command. He’s already reached a level strong enough to contend with the Supreme Heavenly Dao. Compared to his understanding of Dao, mine is like an elephant versus an ant. There’s no way he could be injured."
Among those present, Zhao Han, bearing the reincarnated Dao Ancestor’s power, had seen the clues.
"Ziwei Taoist isn’t still putting on a show, is he?" Su Qingqing’s eyes widened. Damn it, this miss almost shed tears just now over that old Taoist getting hurt so badly, and he actually...
"Sure enough, the older you get, the more shameless you become." Su Qingqing said gloomily.
Zhao Han’s lips curled in a faint smile; he also didn’t know what to say.
The next moment.
Ziwei Taoist stood in the Void, one hand covering the huge crack in his chest, and said, word by word, "Tao Tian, you’ve got a vicious heart. This old Taoist is so old, and you actually stood there without moving, letting the old Taoist hit you three times. Now this old Taoist has been shaken and injured by you, all my meridians shattered, my body about to collapse. You damned bastard, if you’d dodged just now it’d be one thing, but now this old Taoist can’t let you off."
Ziwei Taoist stood in the Void, grabbed Tao Tian by the collar, then looked at Chen Nan with a face full of grief. "Chen Nan, this time, this old Taoist is sacrificing himself for you. If one day your cultivation defies Heaven, don’t forget that this old Taoist risked his life to save you. Remember, you owe this old Taoist a life. Ah—ugh..."
Ziwei Taoist spat out another mouthful of blood, along with quite a few internal organs.
It was a ghastly sight.
Even though Chen Nan and the others could clearly guess that this old Taoist wasn’t really injured, they still felt that this act of his was just... too tragic.
"Senior Ziwei, you hurting yourself like this, and injuring Senior Tao Tian—he’s backed by the Holy Demon Race. The backing behind me, this kid, is way too thin. You making such a big target of yourself is dumping a huge problem in my lap. If the Holy Demon Race comes knocking later..."
"Eh? Senior Ziwei, why are you leaving?"
As Chen Nan was speaking, Ziwei Taoist was already cursing as he dragged Tao Tian and, in the blink of an eye, slipped into a small grove near Wangtian City.
"Damned brat, this old Taoist’s incarnation is about to collapse. Right before dying, am I not just making that stinking brat owe me a favor? And he actually wants to turn it around and extort this old Taoist. Truly, the human heart has grown old and the morals decayed. Sigh... Still, that brat’s shameless spirit, compared to those few guys, really is... to this old Taoist’s taste."
Ziwei Taoist kept cursing under his breath, not even sure himself whether he hated Chen Nan or liked him, as he dragged Tao Tian into the grove outside Wangtian City.
Watching Ziwei Taoist drag Tao Tian and disappear into the grove outside the city, Su Qingqing said blankly, "Idiot, you’re too ruthless. That old Taoist’s body is already collapsing, and all you’d have to do is give him one casual line, and you still wouldn’t agree. The old Taoist’s probably going to be pissed into coughing up real blood by you. Look at him, running like he’s fleeing for his life... But, idiot, you’re still the idiot I like. It’s obvious the old Taoist was digging another pit for you."
Ziwei Taoist’s peerless strength is matched by his top-notch acting. If everyone hadn’t witnessed his heaven-defying power before, they really might have been fooled.
"Senior Brother, that old Taoist knows a lot of stuff. Should we chase after him?" Ye Yiyi asked.
Zhao Han shook his head. "The Dao on him is a moral Dao a thousand times stronger than my Dao Ancestor aura—he definitely isn’t from the Outer Domain. But even so, this body might just be one of his incarnations in the Lower Realm. If such an incarnation isn’t strong enough, you can’t tell it’s fake at all; it’s perfectly real. Even my former self only knew about this kind of incarnation and never cultivated one. He came to the Outer Domain with an incarnation, and after completing his mission, it will automatically undergo Soldier Resolution. Chasing him is pointless; we can only watch him dissipate into nothing."
"This Ziwei Taoist’s background is probably enormous, maybe even far stronger than the Demon Path Supreme. If this is just an incarnation, I have no idea how powerful his true body is. I really do need to think carefully about what he said."
Chen Nan thought to himself.
"Chen Nan, after this battle, Tao Tian probably won’t chase us anymore. Let’s find a place to eat. Chicken Lord’s about to starve to death. You don’t want a real dead******* beside you, do you?" the Black Feathered Chicken squawked.
Chicken Lord’s stomach kept clucking nonstop.
"Alright, we want to see too, in a city as big as Wangtian City, how the food at Heavenly Food Pavilion compares to that in Huangsha and a small place like Wanxiang City."
Chen Nan licked his lips.
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in his eyes; his Divine Sense caught a familiar aura.
In his Sea of Consciousness, an image appeared: a middle-aged scholar was stepping into the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion in Wangtian City.
