BXBX NOVEL Chapter 181
“Master, are you serious?” Zi Qingyan’s mouth slightly opened, her cold face full of confusion and bewilderment.
Upon hearing this, the sect master of the Supreme Dao Sect sighed helplessly and said, “Of course I’m serious!”
“Don’t you think the appearance of the Forbidden Zone is too bizarre?”
“First, the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain schemed against you, and then the Forbidden Zone appeared, claiming that a powerful being inside wanted to take you as a disciple!”
“If the powerful being in the Forbidden Zone truly had this intention, why let this Taigu come forward? A direct invitation would suffice!”
“If the powerful being of the Forbidden Zone stepped forward, do you think our Supreme Dao Sect would have any reason to refuse?”
Zi Qingyan’s mind was in turmoil, her gaze sharpened, and she whispered, “You mean that the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain is behind this!”
The sect master of the Supreme Dao Sect’s face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, “Most likely, it’s the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain at play.”
“Although we don’t know how they contacted the Forbidden Zone, these signs suggest it is their ploy to get you!”
“They probably want to use the influence of the Forbidden Zone to force us into submission!”
“If it were truly the will of that powerful being in the Forbidden Zone, this so-called Taigu wouldn’t agree to our condition. They would simply take you by force!”
“So, his agreement to our condition makes me even more suspicious!”
“This Taigu might have made a deal with the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain, using the prestige of the Forbidden Zone to make us submit!”
“He probably knows that the major forces fear the Forbidden Zone and won’t deny them face. Without the intervention of major forces, ordinary Saints and Saint Kings are no match for him and he can secure victory easily!”
“I proposed this condition just to buy some time! Thinking of a way to change our current predicament!”
Saying this, the sect master of the Supreme Dao Sect sighed and slowly said, “After much thought, I found that you becoming the Dao companion of the Primordial Holy Son seems to be the best choice.”
“The Primordial Holy Land is one of the few forces that does not fear the Forbidden Zone. You would be much safer there than in the Supreme Dao Sect!”
“Moreover, the Primordial Holy Son is the greatest genius of all time, with the potential to become an emperor. Becoming his Dao companion would not be a disadvantage, but rather a blessing!”
“Of course, the choice is yours! If you are not willing, we can abandon this plan! At worst, we’ll fight to the death with the Forbidden Zone, seeking a chance of survival!”
“The powerful beings of the Forbidden Zone might not have much to do with the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain; it might just be a collaboration between this so-called successor of the Forbidden Zone and the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain!”
After saying this, the sect master of the Supreme Dao Sect looked deeply at Zi Qingyan. Then he turned and looked at the distant sea of clouds, sighing.
Now, he had no other choice and if he had, he wouldn’t have come to this point. If it were just the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain before, the Supreme Dao Sect wouldn’t be afraid.
But now, with the addition of the Forbidden Zone, the situation of the Supreme Dao Sect had become dire. Besides the sect’s predicament, there was Zi Qingyan’s situation to consider.
If the Forbidden Zone truly acted, Zi Qingyan would be doomed, and the Supreme Dao Sect would be unable to protect her.
He didn’t want to see Zi Qingyan perish here. Zi Qingyan’s talent was extraordinary, second only to the Primordial Holy Son, with a chance to achieve enlightenment.
“Master! Do I still have a choice? Or does the Supreme Dao Sect have a choice?” Zi Qingyan said calmly, “I agree with you, Master!”
It seemed like there were two choices, but in reality, there was no choice at all.
The former was the best solution and the latter required fighting, but the hope was slim. They all knew that most likely, the Forbidden Zone and the Ancient Desolate Demon Domain were colluding.
“In fact, there’s a problem with this choice!” the sect master of the Supreme Dao Sect said in a low voice.
“Problem?” Zi Qingyan asked, extremely puzzled.
“The Primordial Holy Land might refuse us! This so-called choice might just be our wishful thinking!”
“It depends on whether the Primordial Holy Land agrees or not! If they don’t agree, we have no way out!” The sect master of the Supreme Dao Sect said helplessly.
In this matter, they were passive and they had no initiative. What would happen depended on the choices of the two dominant forces.
Upon hearing this, Zi Qingyan’s expression became complicated, lost in thought. Her heart surged with some expectations, hoping the other party would agree.
Thinking of the past, when she saw that figure in white in the Supreme Hall, Zi Qingyan’s heart stirred. For someone who was solely devoted to the Dao, Jiang Chen was an exception.
In the Supreme Hall, Jiang Chen dominated, stepping over everyone. Whether it was the unrivaled Huang Qingtian or herself, they all felt a deep sense of powerlessness in front of Jiang Chen.
Between them, it was as if they existed in different dimensions, incomparable. Thus, the past events left some marks on Zi Qingyan.
……
“Is there no one in the Nine Heavens Realm?” Taigu continued to rant, his arrogant stance overlooking the entire Supreme Dao City.
“I heard the Nine Heavens Realm is full of countless geniuses and monstrous talents, but it seems they are nothing more than weaklings!”
“Not a single person with the strength to fight me, and yet you people occupy the entire Nine Heavens Realm. What a disgrace!”
Facing the silent crowd, Taigu enjoyed it immensely as he loved seeing this fear and dread. He loved trampling these people underfoot.
In his heart, he was deeply unbalanced. The Forbidden Zone was so powerful, why didn’t it dominate the entire Nine Heavens Realm, instead of hiding in one place and letting these trash swagger around?
This was something Taigu never understood. He didn’t understand why his master remained hidden, letting these so-called immortal forces run rampant in the Nine Heavens Realm for so many years.
If these immortal forces were strong enough, he could accept it, but these forces were clearly not worth mentioning.
“Why are you all cowards? Don’t you even have the courage to refute? You creatures are truly disgraceful!” Seeing the crowd unable to respond, Taigu became more and more arrogant.
His arrogant stance was almost trampling on the faces of many forces, even pointing at their noses and cursing.
These words made the various forces extremely angry, but thinking of the terror of the Forbidden Zone, like a bucket of cold water, their anger was immediately extinguished.
For such matters, it wasn’t worth offending the Forbidden Zone.
“So arrogant, why doesn’t anyone come out to slap his face?”
“Damn, I really want to beat this guy to death and stomp on his face!”
“It’s not that the various forces are cowards, but the previous outbreak of the Forbidden Zone was truly terrifying, making the various forces have to fear!”
“An immortal force was wiped out overnight. Who wouldn’t be afraid?”
“These are just verbal attacks. The strong ones from the various forces have already tempered their Dao hearts and don’t take it to heart!”
“Even so, shouldn’t we at least vent our anger? Are we just going to let him continue?”
“Why are you worried? He’s insulting the major forces, trampling on their faces, not ours!”
“Even so!”
Taigu’s excessive arrogance made many people extremely uncomfortable, but they couldn’t say anything openly. The various forces feared the Forbidden Zone, while they feared Taigu.
Taigu’s strength was still extremely terrifying. To destroy them would only take a raise of his hand!
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.
“Pure Yang Holy Son, I heard you are fearless. Why don’t you come out now?” It was Jin Changhe’s voice, seemingly knowing that the Pure Yang Holy Son was present, he intentionally provoked trouble.
“As expected, a beast!” the Pure Yang Holy Son cursed inwardly. Although his mouth was foul, it didn’t mean he was stupid.
Most importantly, even if he was willing, the Pure Yang Holy Land behind him wouldn’t agree. For the sake of the Holy Land, he had to endure, not letting his mouth cause trouble.
Otherwise, the one harmed wouldn’t be just himself, but the entire Pure Yang Holy Land. It might even involve the Primordial Holy Land.
Considering these matters, the Pure Yang Holy Son had to shut his mouth.
