"Master, please go now. You couldn't protect me before, so from now on there's no need for master's protection. I can protect myself, master don't need to worry about me."
Mo Yanliang just wanted Xie Baichen to leave quickly. He was really annoyed by this so-called master.
Especially when he thought that Daliang might have liked him, he felt even more upset.
"Yun Qing, no matter how angry you are, you can't joke about your own life. After all..."
"After all, you are still waiting to for my blood."
Mo Yanliang's words left Xie Baichen speechless. He staggered back a few steps. Almost every word his young disciple said now stabbed him in the heart, but he couldn't refute it. He couldn't even promise not to let him bleed again.
Xie Baichen thought for a moment, took out the Seven Treasures Gourd and some elixirs and placed them in front of the door, then said softly: "I was wrong before. I shouldn't have accused you without asking anything. Keep this Seven Treasures Gourd for self-defense, and these elixirs are for you to replenish your body."
Xie Baichen was about to leave after he finished speaking when Mo Yanliang suddenly remembered something.
"Wait a moment."
"Yun Qing, you have figured out that..."
"I just want to ask you something."
The door remained close. Mo Yanliang asked Xie Baichen through the door: "With so many immortals, how did Zhan Yuming escape?"
Zhan Yuming's condition was obviously not very good at that time. Although he gave Zhan Yuming divine blood, the divine blood was spiked with something that would've caused great damage to Zhan Yuming... Zhan Yuming was able to escape like this, so he must have some tricks, right?
Mo Yanliang knew that he would definitely confront Zhan Yuming in the future, so it was necessary to collect information in advance.
"I wasn't there..."
This was another question that made Xie Baichen extremely embarrassed. Even though he was not present, this matter did make the immortal world seem very incompetent.
"It is said that the person had been captured at that time, but after Zhan Yuming stabbed himself four times, his strength suddenly surged, and he finally broke through the encirclement and escaped."
Since he was not present, Xie Baichen heard these things from other immortals, but the general situation should be like this.
Mo Yanliang kept it in mind that Zhan Yuming had a way to become stronger.
He didn't see this detail when reading the book, or rather, Zhan Yuming in the novel was basically never so humiliated.
In fact, it's not just Zhan Yuming, including Xie Baichen and Feng Ziliu. They were not tortured much in the novel. In that abusive novel, from beginning to end, only the protagonist was brutally abused...
Mo Yanliang guessed that although Zhan Yuming had this strange way of becoming stronger, he would have to pay a huge price for it, so under normal circumstances he would not use it easily.
After asking what he wanted, Mo Yanliang stopped talking.
Seeing that he really didn't want to come out, Xie Baichen could only leave dejectedly.
After he left, Mo Yanliang opened the door and wanted to throw away Xie Baichen's things, but after thinking about it, there was no need to throw these things away. It was what he deserved. After all, what the fairy world wanted was his divine blood.
He really needed the elixirs to replenish his body, but this Seven Treasure Gourd...
In fact, Mo Yanliang initially liked this magic weapon, but it was given by Xie Baichen, and it was easily taken back by him. What if he confronted Xie Baichen in the future, wouldn't he be easily suppressed?
Mo Yunqing seemed to see through Mo Yanliang's concerns and reminded him, "This Seven Treasure Gourd is indeed a good thing. There is basically nothing bad on Xie Baichen's body. You can accept it. I know what you are worried about. As long as you make this thing yours, Xie Baichen will not be able to take it away."
"How do I make it mine?"
Mo Yanliang immediately became interested. Who wouldn’t be happy to have an extra magic weapon?
"It may be difficult for others, but it's easy for you. You just cut your hand and put a drop of blood on it."
Mo Yanliang's first thought was to claim ownership by blood, but then he realized that was not the case.
"Is the blood of the gods so useful?"
If it had so many uses, it was no wonder that the Immortal Realm had always wanted to take his blood. Now he was even more suspicious of what his blood was used for. Was it really used to maintain the barrier, or was it used for something else?
"It's good that you know this. Xiaoliang, you have to hurry up and practice. Time is running out..."
When Mo Yunqing said this, Mo Yanliang didn't quite understand what he meant. Mo Yunqing didn't explain, but continued: "I know you don't like the heaven, and I don't like it either, but the heaven does have abundant spiritual energy and is a good place to cultivate. Plus as the bloodline of the gods, as long as you don't bleed, you will cultivate fast."
"Since you don't want to cultivate the Ruthless way, then I suggest you cultivate the Way of Heaven. Although I haven't practiced it either, the God Clan should be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating the Way of Heaven."
Mo Yanliang listened to Mo Yunqing's advice, and for the next few days, he stayed indoor and cultivate the Way of Heaven in the small courtyard. The elixirs that Xie Baichen sent became his meals, he eat one when he's hungry. After several days like this, he really perceived something.
Mo Yanliang was originally a workaholic. Now that he had found something to do, he turned a deaf ear to everything else outside and was only absorbed in cultivation.
However, as he stayed indoors, some people became anxious.
In the palace of Immortal Lord Bailing, Xie Baichen had a headache after sending away the Immortal Emperor's envoy for the third time. This was the third time that the Immortal Emperor had sent someone to urge him, and this time the Immortal Emperor had given a death order. If Xie Baichen did not go again, the Immortal Emperor would come in person.
But at this moment, Xie Baichen really felt ashamed to see his little disciple, let alone to ask him to bleed...
But if he doesn't go, and the Immortal Emperor goes in person, things may develop in an uncontrollable direction again.
At first, Xie Baichen thought that he would delay as long as possible, and deal with it later when he really couldn't delay anymore. However, the Immortal Emperor obviously saw through his thoughts and became increasingly anxious everyday. Now, the Immortal Emperor could no longer wait.
Seeing Immortal Lord Bailing's tangled look, Kuimu Fairy volunteered: "Immortal Lord, if you really in dilemma, let this small fairy do it. It can be regarded as a way to atone for my sin."
Xie Baichen glanced at Kuimu Fairy and just sighed.
With his little disciple current temper, he wouldn't even want to see him. If Kuimu Fairy, the immortal official who had bullied him before, went there, it would probably only intensify the conflict.
"No need."
Although Xie Baichen's expression and voice were still as gentle as ever, Kuimu Fairy knew that the Immortal Lord no longer treated him the same way as before, and no longer believe him.
But he was the one who did it, so he didn't dare to blame the Immortal Lord for anything. He just hated Mo Yanliang even more in his heart, thinking that if he hadn't caused such a scene, he would still be the Immortal Lord's most trusted subordinate.
Xie Baichen had no way to retreat and finally arrived at Mo Yanliang's residence again.
Mo Yanliang was resting from cultivating. He was about take another elixir and drink some water when he heard Xie Baichen's voice again.
Mo Yanliang felt that Xie Baichen was like a ghost that wouldn't go away. Just when he was thinking about whether to go out and get rid of him, he heard Xie Baichen say, "Yun Qing, your master came here this time for the heavenly barrier, as you know... You can get any compensation you want, it's just about the barrier..."
When Xie Baichen wanted to say something else, the door suddenly opened from the inside, and Xie Baichen saw Mo Yanliang, whom he hadn't seen for many days.
Just after a few days, Xie Baichen felt that there seemed to be some changes in his little disciple and he exuded a strong aura of Taoism.
"Yun Qing, you can cultivate now?"
"I have always been able to cultivate. How long do you want to deceive me about this, Master?"
Mo Yanliang looked at Xie Baichen with sharp eyes.
"As for the heavenly barrier...what does it have to do with me?"
Xie Baichen frowned, obviously disagreed with Mo Yanliang's statement: "Yun Qing, you are also a member of the heaven, what do you mean by that? As for your cultivation, your master has no intention of deceiving you, but every time you bleed, the spiritual power you cultivate will disappear, and every time you do it, it will be in vain. You know this too."
"So? So you knew that bloodletting has so many harmful effects, but you still insisted on letting me bleed. Is this what you call caring for your apprentice?"
Mo Yanliang pressed on step by step. He was ready to make everything clear at once. It would be best if Xie Baichen did not bother him again, as it would only delay his cultivation every time.
"Yun Qing, I know you feel wronged, but it is our responsibility to protect the heavens."
"The one being protected is your immortal world! That is your responsibility, what does it have to do with my God clan? Besides, since the blood shedded is mine, the one protecting the heavenly barrier is me, shouldn't I be your hero? But what kind of treatment have I received? Being called a waste by the immortals, and anyone can bully me... Is this how you immortals treat your benefactors?"
Mo Yanliang longed to say these words.
Even if he really had to shed blood to protect the barrier, he should still be a hero. Instead, he protected the heaven but labeled as a waste and anyone can trampled on him to show their superiority.
"In the final analysis, you are all selfish! You are just stepping on me to fulfill your high and mighty ambitions. Immortal Lord Bailing, from now on, I will never give you another drop of my blood."
Xie Baichen did not obtain the divine blood, and this matter was soon known to the Immortal Emperor.
"Bai Ling, I've said it before, if you can't get the divine blood, don't blame me for using force."
"No! You promised me that you wouldn't hurt Yun Qing."
Xie Baichen's first reaction was to refuse.
"That's when he's obedient. If he's not obedient, are we just going to let him do whatever he wants?"
Seeing Xie Baichen's face full of resistance, the Immortal Emperor finally softened his attitude: "Bai Ling, you are the most proud Immortal Lord in the Immortal Realm. I know that you and Mo Yunqing have a deep master and disciple relationship. I promised you that I would try to persuade him in the gentlest way possible. Since you can't bear this matter, don't go over this time. I have my own way."
Xie Baichen was struggling, but in the end, he relented.
The Immortal Emperor tried to use the gentlest method possible. When Mo Yanliang opened the door to his courtyard the next day, he saw the Immortal Emperor at the head, followed by a group of immortals, all blocking the door to his courtyard.
Mo Yanliang raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the Immortal Emperor at the front. This is... the supreme leader of the Immortal Realm.
"Yunqing, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to be getting more and more promising. Come over here and let me take a good look at you."
The Immortal Emperor's action of calling Mo Yanliang over made Mo Yanliang feel like he was calling a dog...
Mo Yanliang didn't move. He was observing the Immortal Emperor and the group of immortals standing behind him.
The momentum was quite huge. At least in his opinion, it was much bigger than the last time Zhan Yuming was captured...
The author has something to say:
I should be able to finish changing the fairyland map tomorrow. If I don't finish it tomorrow, it will probably be the day after tomorrow.
