Rise Of Humanity Chapter 539 - The Emperor's Teacher, Big Goose

Chapter 539 - The Emperor's Teacher, Big Goose

s.h.i.+ Buyi was in shock, his intent to kill Zhong Yue brimmed through his eyes, but the insect magnate parasite continued to burrow itself in his Yuan Shen. As long as he raised any ill-intent, Zhong Yue would be able to command the insect magnate to tear his Yuan Shen apart.

Zhong Yue stood beside him, gravely wounded but a.s.sured with confidence. As long as there s.h.i.+ Buyi's heart had any malicious intent, he would suffer cruel torture.

It wouldn't be easy to tame the monster lion, but thankfully, Zhong Yue brought back some of the bizarre insect magnates with peculiar abilities such as this insect magnate who could infect its victim's Yuan Shen.

It was Zhong Yue's true intention from the start to capture and tame s.h.i.+ Buyi. After all, if he wanted to kill the monster overlord, he only needed to bring the over twenty insect magnates and give them one divine weapon each. That was really all it would take to kill even the mightiest Qi Pract.i.tioner, including s.h.i.+ Buyi.

But Zhong Yue had his eye on the whole East Barren!

“s.h.i.+ Buyi, why struggle and fight back?" Zhong Yue wiped off the blood trickling down his mouth, he handed a few pieces of divine herb leaves to Gu Hongzi and Long Yue to help the two in recovering from their injuries. Then, he laughed and said, “It's not a shame to be my mount. Not only were you given my divine eye, I will even teach you the complete【Monster G.o.d Ming King Art】, the one and only obstacle in your path to deityhood will be lifted and you will become a G.o.d in no time!”

Gu Hongzi and Long Yue suffered grave injuries, it was only because of the divine herbs Zhong Yue brought with him from Swords Gate that they were well on their way to recovery.

s.h.i.+ Buyi stopped struggling, he gave a cold humph and said, “A monster G.o.d as a mount? I'd rather die!”

“You sure?" Zhong Yue frowned.

Immediately, s.h.i.+ Buyi hesitated. Seeing that, Zhong Yue knew that the lion monster didn't really mean it. s.h.i.+ Buyi was selfish and greedy, something Zhong Yue had realized back when the old man battled with him.

During that battle, s.h.i.+ Buyi was reluctant to go all out with the old man. But if he didn't, he would have lost his position as the East Barren monster overlord, thus forcing him to the edge of the precipice, eventually leading to his grave injuries.

Moreover, the way he treated his disciples was evidence enough of his selfishness.

“Don't worry, I won't exterminate the whole monster race nor will I overtake your position. You are still the monster overlord as before." Zhong Yue smiled, he said, “Furthermore, when you ascend to the deityhood, you might be strong enough to kill the insect magnate in your Yuan Shen and free yourself from my control?”

s.h.i.+ Buyi was moved, he was incredibly talented, not inferior to innate spirit bodies. If he cultivated the complete【Monster G.o.d Ming King Art】and fixed the flaw in his cultivation technique, he would be able to strive for deityhood!

After he become a monster G.o.d, wouldn't it only take the snap of a finger to kill the insect magnate inside of him?

Zhong Yue took out two flower petals from the divine herb and handed it to the lion monster, he said solemnly, “Don't feel shame, I knocked my head on the floor and kowtowed to you as a disciple, and now you are here as my mount. We are now even. Furthermore, Long Yue will still be your beloved closed door disciple, at least to the world.”

s.h.i.+ Buyi sneered frigidly, he chewed on the flower petals as if it were Zhong Yue in his mouth. He raised his eyebrows and said, “I can follow your orders, but you will have to take good care of my fame and reputation.”

“Of course." Zhong Yue nodded, he suddenly raised his head up to the sky and said while smiling, “Senior Martial Brother Feng, how are you?”

Feng Wuji rushed over, he saw the three experts and s.h.i.+ Buyi standing still on their ground and there was an awkward atmosphere that filled in the surrounding. He glanced around and saw them all, and although the ambience among them was still hostile, the fight somehow stopped.

Furthermore, s.h.i.+ Buyi didn't self-destruct as he expected; and not only that, but s.h.i.+ Buyi's prowess and cultivation base seemed to be stronger than before. Although he was strong in the past too, it was like a flame about to die out. But now, s.h.i.+ Buyi felt like a full moon br.i.m.m.i.n.g with full luminescence.

A rising moon in its brightest and most flawless form!

This was the sign of s.h.i.+ Buyi successfully cultivating the Ming King divine eye, it meant that he patched the only flaw in his cultivation technique and was perfect ever since!

Things developed in a total opposite direction to what Feng Wuji expected!

“High priest of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race, you care too much of things that aren't your business." s.h.i.+ Buyi raised his head and looked at Feng Wuji, he gave a cold sneer and suddenly shook his head, roaring loudly. Billowing soundwaves shattered the clouds in the sky and crashed toward Feng Wuji!

Feng Wuji's face changed drastically, the Pan Ao heads extruded out on his neck and roared back. His billowing soundwaves took the forms of totem patterns and turned into two bright round moons.

The【Pan Ao Whistling Moon】of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race!

The two kinds of soundwaves clashed together and Feng Wuji m.u.f.fled a deep groan. He was sent flying into the sky while Zhong Yue suddenly stomped his feet and burst toward Feng Wuji. He was in mid-air behind Feng Wuji, laughing wildly as he bowed and said, “Senior Martial Brother Feng, I been waiting for you! You think I don't know you are an incarnation also in the East Barren? You can scheme against me, but I do the same to you as well!”

【Wors.h.i.+pping of G.o.ds】!

Feng Wuji's face turned gloomy, he swayed his body and turned into a three-headed celestial being, two Pan Ao heads and the one in the middle remained as a human head. His hands clenched together in front of him and the image of a three-headed Pan Ao gnawing on a moon appeared behind him.

The two great skills clashed together and pulverized one another.

Meanwhile, Zhong Yue already rushed to the front, he stretched out his eight arms and lashed out the【Yin Yang Celestial Demon Style】at the craziest speed possible. After-images of his hands could be seen raining down on Feng Wuji!

This was a great skill he created during the battle with Bi Xie, it was a style of martial arts that focused on speed. It was meant to unleash the attacks at a speed faster than what the opponent could block!

However, Zhong Yue was not the only one that was fast; Feng Wuji was also incredibly fast as well!

Feng Wuji's three heads began chanting, and skills were shot out from the Pan Ao heads. Every word and every sentence he uttered were deadly skills!

The two of them exchanged attacks at an unimaginable speed.

s.h.i.+ Buyi dashed over and Feng Wuji suddenly turned into a three-headed Pan Ao in mid-air. His legs crouched down and shot him back out from the battle circle. Immediately, he galloped away from them without any hesitation.

Zhong Yue and s.h.i.+ Buyi were chasing after him, but his speed was incredible in the Pan Ao form. It would take some time to catch up to him, but by the time they could catch him, they would be in the West Barren already. the West Barren was Feng Wuji's homebase, it was impossible to take him down in his own place.

Zhong Yue and s.h.i.+ Buyi stopped together, they exchanged a look and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

It was that moment that the four elders, Tian, Di, Xuan and Huang, had arrived. Qiu Jin'er Qingshan's face changed drastically, and he shouted, “Senior martial uncles, Zhong Yue and Gu Hongzi have two other helpers, I will go and ask the three island lords to help!”

He quickly bolted away and the four elders were left stunned. Suddenly, the clouds turned and formed the face of s.h.i.+ Buyi as he said, “Senior martial brothers, capture the traitor Qiu Qingshan right away! He is a spy planted beside me by Feng Wuji, he tried to break the relation between Long Yue and myself, and he plotted with Zhong Yue and also Gu Hongzi to kill me!”

The four elders were shocked, Chief Huang quickly asked, “Overlord, are you hurt?”

s.h.i.+ Buyi gave a cold sneer as he said, “Although they are strong and nearly took my life, my beloved disciple gave me his divine eye in the heat of the battle. The two of us are able to fight back the enemies.”

“Long Yue gave overlord the divine eye?" the four elders praised, “What a loyal monster!”

Immediately, the four elders rushed out in anger, their hearts were burning in anger as they thought, This Qiu Qingshan, a spy planted in the monster race by the Xiao Mang Celestial Race! This Xiao Mang Celestial Race has crossed the line, how dare they infiltrate our East Barren monster race! This Qiu Qingshan mustn't be allowed to escape from the East Barren. His existence is a walking humiliation to our monster race!

On the other side, s.h.i.+ Buyi looked at Zhong Yue, his eyelids throbbed as he said, “Zhong Yue…”

“What do you mean, teacher?" Zhong Yue said indifferently.

s.h.i.+ Buyi forcibly repressed down his anger, “Master Zhong, can I return to the Xian Kong Saint City?”

Zhong Yue nodded softly, he said while smiling, “When you return, it's about time for you to go into a closed door cultivation and pa.s.s down the affairs of monster race to Long Yue.”

s.h.i.+ Buyi broke into laughter out of anger, “You want to overtake me?”

Almost immediately after those words escaped his mouth, the monster lion was already rolling on the ground and grovelling in pain. He quickly shouted, “Stop, stop! The East Barren will be handed over to you!”

Zhong Yue smiled and said, “s.h.i.+ Buyi, so long as you don't disobey me, we will still be on good terms. I can still treat you equally but if you have even the slightest thought of betrayal, then I suppose there is no need for you to exist anymore…”

s.h.i.+ Buyi roared in his heart, he pressed down the anger in him with all his might and bolted away toward the Xian Kong Saint City together with Long Yue.

Gu Hongzi watched as they left, he slowly furrowed his brow and asked abruptly, “Junior Martial Brother Zhong, are you going to wipe out the monster race and conquer the East Barren?”

It was true, Gu Hongzi often came in aid to the Great Wilderness human race, to help Swords Gate. But there was no doubt there was part of him was siding toward the monster race as well as he was a half human, half monster. Zhong Yue knew that Gu Hongzi would be the first to stand against him if he decided to annihilate the whole monster race.

“Senior Martial Brother Gu Hongzi, be at ease. I will not exterminate the monster race. My goal is to just let the humans in the East Barren to enjoy a better life than what they have now. Senior martial brother, you and I ambushed s.h.i.+ Buyi, your reputation and fame here in the monster race has been completely tarnished, why don't you follow me back to the Great Wilderness.”

Zhong Yue suggested, “Although you are a monster, a part of you still belongs to the human race. It's about time for you to come back and visit the other half of your heritage.”

Gu Hongzi hesitated for a second before he slowly nodded his head.

Two silhouettes arrived at the doorstep of the palace. Inside, Shao Dian and Fu Bao were teaching little Xuan Yuan the ways of cultivation. One of the silhouettes knocked on the open door and said while laughing, “Senior Martial Brother Shao Dian, I came to introduce you to a good teacher. This is Gu Hongzi.”

Shao Dian and Fu Bao quickly greeted them but Gu Hongzi did not greet them back. He was a prideful individual himself, like a freely flying goose that didn't concern himself over others.

Little Xuan Yuan was hopping over, the divine sword hovered behind him like a footman. He stared at Gu Hongzi who had the body of a human, head of a bird and a pair of wings on his back. Little Xuan Yuan was entertained and he hopped on the ground happily, while he shouted, “Great goose, great goose!”

Gu Hongzi frowned, he looked at Zhong Yue and said, “Junior Martial Brother Zhong, I never taught kids, nor do I like kids in the first place!”

Zhong Yue laughed and replied, “Just teach him like how the old man taught you before. Well, you are free and have nothing to do for this period of time, why don't you give it a try?”

Gu Hongzi nodded softly, he said, “The old man was quite strict in the past, he will suffer a lot under my teachings.”

Seeing that Gu Hongzi was such a peculiar character, Fu Bao and Shao Dian were worried, they thought, This teacher Elder Zhong brought doesn't look like a good man, if little Xuan Yuan is taken under him…

“A strict teacher trains a fine student." Zhong Yue comforted them from the side.

West Barren, Xiao Mang Celestial Temple.

Feng Wuji's face was dark and gloomy, he pondered for a long time and suddenly, he sighed and mumbled to himself, “This Zhong Yue has really become the biggest thorn on my side. His rate of growth is too quick and his intelligence is not inferior to mine. His sharp intuition has been able to see through my plans time and time again. If he is given just a few more years, even I won't be able to defeat him anymore…”
