Chapter 112: Dog-Size Barrel (Part Two)

Yue Hongling ran away.

Lu Ye’s suppressed bitterness surged even more violently.

He looked down at the system’s projected figure and couldn’t help but rub his forehead.

The woman the system projected was indeed beautiful; her title as the first in the Nine Heavens was well-deserved, yet Lu Ye had zero interest in women right now.

Well, even if the system was quite charming, he still wasn’t interested.

“Is it fun?”

After Yue Hongling left, the system dropped the act.

“Ding ding ding, super fun, incredibly fun!”

“Then shall I join you in your fun?”

“Ding, you’re dreaming!”

Shen Xitang’s figure transformed into a streak of light and merged into Lu Ye’s body.

Lu Ye…

Headache!

This damn system claimed it would turn into a woman, and he had already refused it, yet it did it anyway.

So, this was a case of rejecting loneliness?

The system didn’t discriminate between genders. In the previous life, during the crossing tribulation, it manifested as the Ancient Celestial Lord.

Maybe it was just too lazy to change forms after borrowing the Dao of Time from the Ancient Celestial Lord.

“Are you going to find Sun Ruowei to have some fun now that you’ve become a woman?” Lu Ye asked.

“Ding, of course! We’re kindred spirits!”

Lu Ye was truly dumbfounded.

If the system turned into a man, it could probably charm Sun Ruowei right into its hands.

“Shut up for a bit; I need to cultivate. Don’t mess around with me.”

“Ding, hum!”

Lu Ye took a deep breath, wiped his tears, and suppressed the pain in his heart.

He wanted to cultivate, but his mind was in disarray.

“Now that you’re a person, don’t you need to pick a name for yourself?” Lu Ye asked.

“Ding, I’ve already chosen one.”

“You can name it?”

“Ding, my wisdom is unmatched; naming is a piece of cake. My name is Shen Xitang!”

Lu Ye…

“That’s terrible. As your master, I can give you a better name.”

“Ding, is it terrible? Then try naming me!”

Lu Ye pondered for a bit.

“How about Dog-Size Barrel?”

“Ding, Dog Master, Dog Master, Dog Master!”

“Ding ding ding ding…”

After cursing the dog system, Lu Ye finally felt clear-headed.

Continue cultivating!

In the northwest of the Great Wilderness.

The great battle had come to a close; the alien coalition was indeed fierce, obliterating the Jiu Li Heavenly Dynasty, the Supreme Imperial Court, and the Mountain River Pagoda Sect in one breath.

The Yin-Yang Sect was trembling uncontrollably. If they hadn’t been in the northwest, they would probably be shattered by now as well.

“What did you say?”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor’s copper bell-like eyes were fixed on Master Danqing.

The black flag behind him danced ominously; it seemed to be even scarier now. Too many souls flickered in the dark mist, each one twisted in agony.

Most of the original souls were demons.

Now, there were many more humans among them.

“Our Mountain River Pagoda Sect doesn’t have a single innate spiritual treasure left,” Master Danqing said, his face full of bitterness.

At this moment, the Mountain River Pagoda Sect was undeniably the poorest it had ever been since its establishment.

With the lack of even a single innate spiritual treasure, what else could they have?

“Boom!”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor struck immediately, slamming his palm onto Master Danqing, sending him flying and spitting blood.

“I’ll give you one more chance. Now, tell me, where are the spiritual treasures of the Mountain River Pagoda Sect?”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor gritted his teeth and asked.

Even after surrendering, why did this fool still think he could trick him? Who gave him the courage?

Master Danqing felt no anger.

He only found himself somewhat pitiful.

In the end, he had lost his gamble. He had thought that if he could kill Shangguan Huanling and self-detonate, he would have some dignity.

But Shangguan Huanling escaped, and now he had lost the courage to self-detonate.

Pathetic, sad!

“I was deceived by a single person,” Master Danqing said calmly.

The Heavenly Demon Emperor’s expression grew even more sinister.

“Deceived? All of it was taken?”

“All of it, not just the spiritual treasures of the Mountain River Pagoda Sect, but also those of the Supreme Imperial Court, all taken by one person.”

“You think I want to enter your Ten Thousand Souls Banner, right?”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor punched again, and Master Danqing was sent flying, his breath feeble.

Master Danqing smiled in resignation; perhaps entering the Ten Thousand Souls Banner wasn’t such a bad ending.

He truly had no idea how he would face the ancestors of his sect if he were to enter the reincarnation path.

Entering the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, at least he wouldn’t have to reincarnate and deal with these troubles.

Despite appearing particularly irritable, the Heavenly Demon Emperor was actually quite meticulous. He had been observing Master Danqing carefully.

It seemed that this old fellow hadn’t told any lies.

But how could that be?

No matter what, you are still the sect master of the Mountain River Pagoda Sect. How could you let all the spiritual treasures get taken away by one person?

Who has such advanced con tricks?

“Spill it, what’s the deal?” The Heavenly Demon Emperor’s fierce expression turned calm; his eyes narrowed, sending chills down one’s spine.

Master Danqing’s expression shifted.

Fine, if he wanted to know, then let’s tell him.

After all, seeing Shangguan Huanling’s escape technique, he knew he couldn’t catch her.

Let others catch her instead.

As long as she ends up miserable, he would consider it revenge.

“It’s like this, Shangguan Hongtian has a daughter named Shangguan Huanling, who claims to be the reincarnation of the Great Emperor.”

“She showed us an incredibly terrifying technique. As long as she devours the origins of treasures, her power increases, called the ‘Origins Devouring Heaven Sutra.’ She has a secret method to instantly elevate herself to a whole new realm.”

“She knows everything—past mysteries and future events, all very clear to her. That’s why we believed her in our dire straits.”

Well, knowing the past and future was something Master Danqing made up to appear less dumb and to increase the credibility of Shangguan Huanling’s claims.

He told the story in detail, eight parts truth and one part lie.

The Heavenly Demon Emperor’s eyes flickered with a strange expression.

The reincarnation of the Great Emperor?

He would go ask Shangguan Hongtian about this.

Shangguan Hongtian was currently in a daze, locked in the heavenly prison.

He had never expected that one day he would be imprisoned in the heavenly prison of the Supreme Imperial Court.

“Your daughter is the reincarnation of the Great Emperor?” The Heavenly Demon Emperor asked.

Shangguan Hongtian suddenly looked up.

Without saying a word, he lowered his head again.

“Hahaha, you’re quite a tragic figure, fooled so badly by your own daughter. Truly pitiful.”

Shangguan Hongtian’s fists tightened.

Veins bulged.

“As her father, you should know your daughter best. Do you think your daughter’s claim of being the reincarnation of the Great Emperor is true or false?”

Shangguan Hongtian finally made a decision.

“You want to know?”

The Heavenly Demon Emperor grabbed Shangguan Hongtian by the throat and lifted him off the ground.

“Do you still think you’re the emperor of the Supreme Imperial Court?”

“Be honest with me!”

A terrifying malice enveloped Shangguan Hongtian.

Shangguan Hongtian had never felt such humiliation in his life.

Shangguan Huanling!

Shangguan Huanling!

It’s all your fault!

“I can determine Shangguan Huanling’s location using the Supreme Emperor Seal!”
