Who was Venerable Wu Nian?
One can say that without Venerable Wu Nian leading Luo Tian to Mount Hua Immortal Sect, there wouldn’t be the current Luo Tian.
It’s possible that without him, Luo Tian would still have many accomplishments and a high level of cultivation. But it will definitely not be as high as the Profound God 7th rank. It would also be impossible for him to head to so many mysterious places and get so much good loot. And finally, it would be impossible for him to hatch Eggy out.
Luo Tian has remembered the kindness Venerable Wu Nian has shown.
He already had plans of heading to the Starsea Immortal Sect after settling Li Xue’er’s matter. He would pay whatever the price necessary to get Venerable Wu Nian back. He was fine even if he had to kill his way through the entire Starsea Immortal Sect.
Luo Tian never imagined that Lin Wushen could be despicable to such a level.
He actually treated Venerable Wu Nian as his own Starsea Immortal Sect’s disciple and then had him fight another Starsea Immortal Sect disciple.
It was very obvious that Lin Wushen wanted to see Luo Tian suffer.
He knew the relationship between Venerable Wu Nian and Luo Tian. He would be much happier watching Luo Tian suffer in pain than getting a divine artifact.
Therefore, Lin Wushen started laughing.
Watching Venerable Wu Nian come out from the stands, Daoist Lie Yang also started laughing as well. His laughter was full of contentment and arrogance. He then pointed at Luo Tian and said: “Weren’t you very arrogant? You thought you were very strong, right? You thought your disciples were very powerful, right? Let’s see what you’re going to do now! Hahaha…”
“Luo Tian!”
“You can’t afford to play with me! We can play with you however we want! A piece of trash like you with a crippled dantian really thinks he’s all that just because you have a few miraculous encounters? Who the hell do you think you are?!”
Disdain!
Mockery!
Cold laughter!
They became incomparably happy when they saw Luo Tian’s ferocious expression.
This was the true despicable and insidious face of Daoist Lie Yang and Lin Wushen.
Luo Tian didn’t look at them and just kept looking at Venerable Wu Nian who was walking out from the crowd. He then shouted: “Grandmaster Wu Nian!”
Sounds of discussion started up within the audience once more.
“Isn’t Venerable Wu Nian an Elder of Mount Hua Immortal Sect? Why would he represent the Starsea Immortal Sect to fight?”
“Didn’t they say that if they drew disciples of the same immortal sect, they would draw another name? Why are they continuing with the fight?”
“What’s going on? How come I feel more and more confused as the competition goes on?”
Sounds of discussions were everywhere.
The referee didn’t give an explanation and Lin Wushen was too lazy to debate with people. He then sneered: “Venerable Wu Nian is someone from my Starsea Immortal Sect and this is just a sparring session between fellow sect disciples. I believe that they will both see improvements after this exchange.”
After saying that, Lin Wushen glanced at Luo Tian with ridicule and said: “Let’s watch him die.”
Venerable Wu Nian had a dull look on his face without any expression. He was just like a puppet that was being controlled by someone. Luo Tian’s previous shout was heard by the entire venue but Venerable Wu Nian didn’t show any response.
Dull spiritless eyes…
Being controlled?
Luo Tian sent out his senses into Venerable Wu Nian’s sea of consciousness and shouted once more: “Grandmaster Wu Nian!”
His sea of consciousness was deathly silent without any response.
Why was this?
Luo Tian started feeling anxious and uncomfortable.
There were many types of evil techniques in the Tianxuan Continent that could manipulate a person. Some used poison and some directly exerted control with their powers so that the victim loses control over their own body. They become under the complete disposal of others like a puppet without self-awareness.
The current Venerable Wu Nian was just like a puppet.
Venerable Wu Nian slowly walked out of the crowd. When he was about to step onto the stage, he was suddenly blocked by Luo Tian.
Luo Tian held onto his shoulder and said: “Grandmaster Wu Nian, it’s me! It’s me, Luo Tian! Have you forgotten everything? Who is it? Who did this to you? Tell me and I will definitely kill him!”
Venerable Wu Nian didn’t respond and kept trying to walk forward. He didn’t look at Luo Tian and just kept staring at the stage like that was his only goal.
At this time, the rage inside Luo Tian erupted as he shouted: “Lin Wushen! Scram out here for me! If he suffers any bit of damage today, I swear I will not let you off! I will have your entire Starsea Immortal Sect accompany you in burial! I, Luo Tian, will do what I say!”
“Ommm~!”
The barrier was suddenly activated.
Luo Tian instantly turned around and coldly glared at the referee.
The referee felt fear wash over his mind as his face immediately paled. His body was faintly shivering as he stuttered: “Sect Leader Luo, please head back to your seat. Once the immortal sect disciples enter the stage, no one is allowed to interfere with the outcome.”
“It’s best if you don’t do anything reckless.”
While the referee was speaking, there was a sudden explosion inside the barrier.
“Boom~!”
Venerable Wu Nian was like a wooden doll pressed against the barrier. There was blood seeping out at the corner of his mouth but his eyes were still spiritless like he didn’t feel any pain.
“Bang~!”
“Bang~!”
“Bang~!”
The moment he was pressed against the barrier, his opponent attacked him like crazy. Venerable Wu Nian’s chest became soaked with blood and droplets could be seen dripping down from the corner of his clothes.
“Hahaha…”
“Hahaha…”
“Well fought! What a good beating!”
“Strike him just like that! Beat him until he dies, hahaha…”
“Hahaha…”
Lin Wushen was especially excited with a fierce expression. He couldn’t help laughing when he saw the enraged look on Luo Tian’s face. “Come! You wanted to play with me, right? Luo Tian, weren’t you very arrogant? Why aren’t you acting arrogant now? Hahaha… playing with me? This daddy will play you to death!”
Daoist Lie Yang then said: “Brother Lin, what a wise move! Look at Luo Tian’s painful expression. This makes me feel really great! Hahaha…”
“Crack~, crack~!”
“Crack~, crack~, crack~…”
Luo Tian clenched his fists and his joints gave off explosive sounds. His eyes were bloodshot and his fierce expression made him look like a devil.
Black flames started surging out of his body.
He took one step forward.
“Bang~!”
The earth shook and the barrier around the stage started rippling.
The referee immediately said: “Luo Tian, you best not act recklessly. Otherwise…”
Luo Tian frowned as he glared at the referee.
The referee had no power to fight back and directly sprayed out a mouthful of black blood. His figure kept retreating backward until he fell onto his butt. Just a thought from Luo Tian had turned the referee’s face pale and turned him into such an embarrassing scene. The referee no longer dared to say half a word.
“Luo Tian, what do you plan on doing?”
“It can’t be that you wish to break the barrier, right?”
“Hahaha…”
“Before the fight is over, the barrier will not be removed. You want to smash the barrier apart?” Lin Wushen’s gaze shifted over to the referee as he said: “Let him smash it. Let him smash to his heart’s content! Hahaha…”
Just like what Lin Wushen said, Luo Tian had thoughts of breaking the barrier.
Watching Venerable Wu Nian being continuously beaten, the anger inside his heart became unusually violent.
“Level 9 Berserk!”
“Nine Dragons and Elephants, level 9!”
“Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise bloodlines, come out for me!”
His pair of fists were like a thunderstrike as he roared out: “Break for me!”
