Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 1151 - 1151 164 Ostracism and Targeting

1151: Chapter 164 Ostracism and Targeting 1151: Chapter 164 Ostracism and Targeting At this mont, seeing Yun Zishu’s hesitant expression, Liu Qi pondered for a while before speaking again, “Don’t say I’m not helping you.

If you are unwilling to give up on Gu Bai, then go persuade him.”

“Persuade Brother Gu?” Yun Zishu was sowhat puzzled.

“Yes, go persuade Gu Bai,” Liu Qi frowned and said, “The Second Prince wants him to join his ranks, which is a sign of high regard.

For soone without strength or background, he dares to refuse the Second Prince and acts so arrogantly—I really don’t know what he’s thinking.

Maybe it’s Princess Xidie’s favoritism towards him that’s made him lose his senses.”

“I’ll give you another piece of advice.

Find Gu Chen, and then you two join forces with us to help the Second Prince obtain the Star Leaf Vine here and have that Gu Bai personally offer it as a gesture of sincerity.

Maybe if the Second Prince is pleased, he will forgive his earlier rudeness.”

Liu Qi said, “And I will take this opportunity to say a few good words about you to the Second Prince.

Then, everything will be back on track, and that Gu Bai will have gained a powerful backer like the Second Prince.

Wouldn’t he be like a phoenix rising to the top of a tree?”

As he said this, he even shook his head, “I really don’t understand what Princess Xidie sees in that Gu Bai; she’s so infatuated with him.

If not for relying on the princess, with Gu Bai’s ager strength, what would he count for?

There are several people under the Second Prince who are stronger than him!

Just having recently ascended to the Dao Gold List, what’s there to be proud of?”

Yun Zishu stood on the side, his expression one of hesitation, finding it difficult to speak.

After spending so ti with Gu Chen, how could Yun Zishu fail to see that, despite his gentle appearance, Gu Chen’s pride was unmatched?

This was evident during their encounter at the Sanctum of Resonance in Qingyun Academy, where Yun Zishu had clearly recognized this aspect of Gu Chen.

Therefore, it was impossible for Gu Chen to willingly serve under soone else, which was precisely why he had negotiated terms with the Second Prince in advance.

However, who would have thought that the Second Prince would go back on his word on the spot and propose to bring Gu Chen under his command?

Such faithlessness was the main reason for Yun Zishu’s disillusionnt.

“Can the Second Prince really beco the emperor?” This was another doubt in Yun Zishu’s mind.

“How about it, Brother Yun, what do you think?” Liu Qi glanced at him, inquiring.

In his view, the Second Prince’s influence was imnse, and even in the ancestral land, he had many followers.

After all, it was the Holy Brilliance Dynasty’s ancestral land; bringing more people was natural and warranted no criticism.

Now that Gu Bai had almost beco a common enemy due to Princess Xidie’s reason, Liu Qi believed that joining the Second Prince would be imnsely beneficial for him.

“Let tell you, among the top demons who have entered this ti, there are several who are quite unhappy with that Gu Bai, such as Ye ng, the young master of the Azure Gold Night Demon Clan.

He’s a fierce figure, as you know.

Without the Second Prince’s protection, who knows, Ye ng might even devour Gu Bai alive!” Liu Qi said gravely.

“Brother Liu, I appreciate your kindness,” Yun Zishu shook his head, rejecting Liu Qi’s proposal.

“Be that as it may,” seeing this, Liu Qi did not persist in persuading him and said, “I just hope you won’t regret it.”

After a pause, he spoke in a low voice, “By the way, have you heard about the incidents with Huo Ming of the Fire Crow Clan and Lei Tian of the Heavenly Thunder Sect in recent days?”

“Of course,” Yun Zishu nodded.

He was also curious about who possessed such prowess to silently dispatch these two formidable demons.

Liu Qi’s expression turned grave, “These two were always targets the Second Prince wished to court.

Thus, His Highness suspects that it might be the work of people sent by the Crown Prince!”

“Oh?” Yun Zishu’s expression changed slightly, surprised.

Liu Qi continued seriously, “Whoever killed Huo Ming and Lei Tian must be an extraordinary individual, perhaps even more formidable than Lu Xin and Mo Chen.

The Second Prince believes that within the ancestral land, perhaps only the Crown Prince could manage such a feat.”

Hearing this, Yun Zishu couldn’t help but nod, considering the Second Prince’s analysis quite reasonable.

After all, the Crown Prince was the eldest of the current emperor’s ten children in the Holy Brilliance Dynasty and naturally had the greatest strength.

He also had many followers who entered with him—if he took action, it was indeed very plausible.

As for his motives, they were obviously to weaken the Second Prince’s camp.

Such speculation was indeed very logical.

“Brother Yun, take care of yourself,” In the end, Liu Qi patted Yun Zishu’s shoulder and then turned to leave.

After all, with Yun Zishu having left the Second Prince’s faction, it wasn’t fitting for him to stay too long by his side, lest it displeased the Second Prince.

At this mont, Yun Zishu focused his attention, looking at a mountain range not far away, aware that the Star Leaf Vine was about to mature.

Then, he took a glance around.

With his own strength, he was more than capable of being among the front runners.

The only significant challenge he needed to deal with was Liu Qi and others aligned with the Second Prince.

“The Star Leaf Vine?”

Just then, a hoarse voice ca through, followed by a violent gust of wind.

Yun Zishu and the others saw an ugly figure with bat-like wings on its back, with green skin and serrated teeth, appearing in the sky, grinning ominously.

“Ye ng?!”

Seeing this person, Liu Qi from the Second Prince’s camp couldn’t help but change his expression and exclaid in shock.

Not only him, but everyone who saw Ye ng also wore an expression of shock and deep wariness.

“It’s over!

With Ye ng appearing, the Star Leaf Vine will surely fall into his hands!” Liu Qi’s face turned pale, and after glancing at the few people around him, he knew that even if they joined forces, they would hardly be able to withstand Ye ng.

After all, that was a renowned demon, famous across hundreds of realms, the young master of the Azure Gold Night Demon Clan!

Moreover, the Night Demon Clan was naturally ferocious, and Ye ng was no different.

It was said that he particularly enjoyed consuming the flesh and blood of cultivators.

If he had not refrained from causing excessive slaughter, he would have been dealt with as if he were a devil long ago.

Even so, the Azure Gold Night Demon Clan was greatly disliked among the top hundred races in the Upper Realm, despised by many forces and cultivators.

Not to ntion, whether they were n, won, old, or young, they were all exceedingly ugly in appearance.

“Hehehe…”

In the heavens above, Ye ng flapped his wings, his gaze brazenly sweeping over everyone below, feeling no pressure whatsoever.

Aside from a few individuals such as Lu Xin and Mo Chen, no one in the ancestral land could rival Ye ng, he believed!

“If I were to devour all these people…” At this mont, such a thought could not help but erge in Ye ng’s mind.

But he knew he could not do so, otherwise he would undoubtedly face universal condemnation from all the major forces once he left.

“Hmm…

if I could have Princess Xidie, that soft and delicate skin, tsk tsk…” Ye ng suddenly thought of Princess Xidie’s flawless face and her slender, graceful figure, almost drooling at the thought.

On the other side, on the ground, many people realized that the Star Leaf Vine was no longer within their reach after Ye ng appeared.

At that mont, Ye ng’s gaze shifted and fixed on Yun Zishu.

In a flash, he moved close to him.

“What?!”

Ye ng’s speed was truly too fast, frightening Yun Zishu so much that his heart trembled in terror.

“May I know what Brother Ye ng wishes to do?” Yun Zishu managed to suppress the panic in his heart and respectfully asked with a fist and bow.

With a face as ugly as a ghoul’s and a pair of azure bat wings on his back that flapped slightly, Ye ng bared his teeth in a smile and asked, “I hear you’re on good terms with Gu Bai?”

Yun Zishu furrowed his brow and said, “Brother Ye ng wishes to say…”

With a thud, before Yun Zishu could finish his sentence, Ye ng vigorously flapped his bat wings, unleashing a violent gust that hit Yun Zishu at close range, causing him to spit blood and be flung away.

“Not good!”

Liu Qi imdiately furrowed his brows in concern.

As a mber of the Second Prince’s camp, he had heard whispers of Ye ng’s interest in Princess Xidie—an intense obsession.

Ye ng had long declared he would skin and devour Gu Chen alive for his affection towards Princess Xidie.

By association, now that he saw Yun Zishu, who was on good terms with Gu Chen, Ye ng’s malice arose, and he wanted to tornt him thoroughly.

“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you.

I’ll just cripple you, hahaha…” Ye ng’s eyes glinted with a savage bloodlust as he grinned broadly, showing off his saw-like teeth, making him look even more terrifying, like a fiend straight out of hell.

“Pfft!”

Yun Zishu lay on the ground, not expecting Ye ng to strike suddenly and being severely wounded, feeling as though all his organs were ablaze.

Of course, given the gap in strength between Yun Zishu and Ye ng, even if Yun Zishu had recovered from the shock, he couldn’t have withstood the attack.

And this was with Ye ng holding back.

“It seems you’re a smart man, not like the others who babble and ask why,” said Ye ng with an ugly smile.

“But I’ll still tell you, yes, I am targeting and ostracizing you.

What can you do about it?

Bla Gu Bai if you must, for daring to vie for the woman I desire, truly seeking death!”

As he spoke, he kicked out fiercely, sending Yun Zishu flying far away.

With this kick, over a dozen bones in Yun Zishu’s body broke.

“Wow!”

Yun Zishu’s face turned ashen as he vomited blood even more violently, spitting out several mouthfuls as if all his internal organs were coming out.

“Oh?

You’re quite resilient,” said Ye ng indifferently.

“Tell , do you think Gu Bai will suddenly appear to save you?

I’m really looking forward to his arrival because I did say I want to devour him alive!”

With that, Ye ng burst into a harrowing laughter, hoarse and piercing, a sound that was quite unpleasant to hear.

Everyone’s faces were full of fear as they backed away, fearing the backlash of the confrontation with Ye ng.

The Azure Gold Night Demon Clan, they all knew, had a strong desire to kill, but in order to coexist with other upper world races, they usually had to restrain themselves.

Now that Ye ng had released his urges, he was finding it difficult to hold back.

He hadn’t tasted human flesh in a while, especially the flesh of the young and talented.

Mainly, those who could make it onto the Dao Gold List were inevitably of extraordinary backgrounds; he couldn’t just strike them down lightly.

But Gu Chen was different.

He didn’t have a strong background, and as for being the heir to Qingyun Academy, that supre headmaster hadn’t co forward to acknowledge him, so only a few people knew about this.

Of course, even if they knew, without the supre headmaster appearing, they still wouldn’t take it seriously.

That’s why Ye ng had set his sights on Gu Chen, determined to devour him.

Watching Yun Zishu repeatedly try and fail to stand up despite his serious injuries, Ye ng smiled lightly and said leisurely, “Don’t worry, I said I wouldn’t kill you and I won’t.

I’ll just beat you to a pulp and then, eat one of your arms.

Consider it the price you pay on behalf of Gu Bai!”

With that thought, a dense green light erged in Ye ng’s eyes as he prepared to make his move on Yun Zishu.

From a distance, Liu Qi gritted his teeth.

As a friend of Yun Zishu, he wished he could step forward to save him, but doing so would surely cost his own life.

Moreover, he knew he was no match for Ye ng and worried that arriving at the scene might even draw criticism from the Second Prince, creating an enemy for himself.

Swish!

But at that mont, Yun Zishu gritted his teeth, his face resolute as he endured his injuries and summoned the spiritual treasure provided by his family, the Yuns.

However, Ye ng was already prepared.

His extrely fast reflexes, coupled with his overwhelming strength compared to Yun Zishu, allowed him to dodge effortlessly.

“You’ve got so backbone, but alas, it’s useless.

I hope Gu Bai is as tough as you are; it makes the al more enjoyable,” said Ye ng nonchalantly.

Then, he walked up to Yun Zishu, lifted one of his arms, opened his tooth-filled mouth, and said with a sinister chuckle, “I’m going to…

start eating now!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than he bit down fiercely with a crunch!
