Chapter 46: Pointed Words

  "What brings you here this time, senior?" Yu Zong asked cautiously.

  Xuantian saw Yu Zong's appearance and smiled wickedly: "You're the one who invited me, aren't you? What's going on?"

  Yu Zong saw the smile of Xuan Tian Ba and was immediately frightened, his three souls and six spirits flying out. He hastily responded: "Senior is mistaken, senior is mistaken! Senior's presence is a great honor, I am not worthy. If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to ask, I will definitely comply."

  "As it happens, I've come this time because there's something I need your help with."

  Yu Zong heard Xuan Tian Ba's words and hastily responded: "Senior, please give the order, whatever Beast God Mountain has, junior will immediately present it."

  "I heard that a woman with a fiery spirit has appeared in your family, I wonder if this is true?"

  "What's this 'Body of Flame'?" Zong Yu's expression changed slightly, and the next moment, a look of difficulty appeared on his face: "Senior is right, but..."

  "What's going on? Are you trying to deceive me?" Xuan Tianba said with a furious expression, releasing a powerful aura from his entire body.

  "Elder, you've misunderstood. The Ling family has indeed produced a descendant with the Fire Spirit body, but this time the Tian family has come to propose marriage to this young lady." Zong Yu was at his wit's end and decided to break the vase once and for all. Alas! He couldn't afford to offend either the Tian family or his own benefactor who had saved his life. Since both parties wanted his younger granddaughter, he might as well let these two powerful beings fight it out themselves. After all, there was only one lady, and gods fighting each other was none of his business as a mortal. It was better to keep a safe distance and avoid dragging the entire Yu family into the mess."

  "Tiān jiā?" Xuán Tiān Bà's face showed a hint of surprise, and the next moment, a smile appeared on his face: "That old guy Tiān Wáng is really fast, but this disciple's wife, I've decided to take her, let's go."

  Zhang Huaming only understood what his master had brought him out for after hearing the conversation between his master and Yu Zong. He wanted to refute his master, but every time he was about to speak, his master glared at him, so he swallowed his words again.

  Yu Zong brought Xuanyuan and the three of them arrived at the mountain top, then stopped in front of a smooth stone wall, before directly walking into the stone wall.

  "Wow!" Zhang Huaming's face showed a surprised expression when he saw Yu Zong disappear into the stone wall.

  "There's nothing strange about it, as long as you can ignite the Wu Yuan fire, then later on you'll have to learn all of this and walk."

  After entering the stone wall, Zhang Huaming was shocked to find that inside the stone wall was actually a different world. All he could see was a vast expanse of sky, with towering mountains rising up all around, birds singing and flowers blooming. Waterfalls cascaded down from halfway up the sky, and streams flowed across the entire land. On the surrounding mountain peaks stood magnificent palaces that shone like gold and jade. Every now and then, enormous creatures would fly by in the sky - they were actually birds, and at least a few of them were extremely rare spirit beasts. How was this possible? In the outside world, such spirit beasts were rarely seen, but here they seemed to be everywhere.

  "Tomorrow, don't forget the name of this place. If you encounter any divine beasts here, don't be surprised." Xuan Tianba's voice sounded in Zhang Huaming's ear.

  Right! Beast God Mountain, what is a beast god? That means everything here is dominated by the divine beast. Wait, Zhang Huaming suddenly thought of a question, if that's the case, wouldn't all the people in the family be divine beasts too? And wouldn't the wife Master wants to find for himself also be a divine beast? Oh no! How can this be?!

  "Kid, don't think too much about it. Although this is a place where divine beasts reign supreme, not all members of the Yu family are divine beasts, but rather half-human and half-beast. This is because the descendants of the Yu family are a combination of divine beasts and humans, so they're not necessarily all divine beasts." Xuan Tianba seemed to have noticed Zhang Huaming's concerns and explained it to him through a voice transmission.

  "Haha! I knew why my eyelids were jumping today, it's because Brother Tianba has arrived, how unusual!" A bright and cheerful laughter sounded, and when the voice fell, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Xuan Tianba and others.

  Xuantian Ba sneered at the young man in front of him, "Tsk, Tianwang, you old geezer, aren't you ashamed? At your age, you're still pretending to be young, how embarrassing!"

  "Haha! Tianba brother, you're wrong this time. Everyone has their own aspirations, right? I'm just acting a bit younger, is that against the law?" Tian Wang responded with a smiling face, but in his heart, he was cursing: "You damn fool, what's it to you if I act young again, old man?"

  Unfortunately, the King of Heaven couldn't express his discontent in front of Xuantian Daren, otherwise he would be beaten up, after all, Xuantian Daren was notorious in ancient times!

  "Brother Tianba, what brings you here this time? Ah, who are these two little ones to Brother Tianba?" The Heavenly King only now noticed the presence of Zhang Huaming and Karyn. Karyn was a divine beast, so he could tell at a glance, but Zhang Huaming was somewhat harder to read. Was he human? His physical strength was almost on par with that of a divine beast. But was he a divine beast? The aura emanating from his body was that of a human cultivator, which left the Heavenly King perplexed for a moment.

  "This is my new apprentice, and that's his little sidekick."

  "A new disciple?" Tian Wang's expression changed upon hearing this answer, and he furrowed his brow in displeasure. "Tian Ba brother, I respect you as a gentleman, but don't treat me like a fool either!"

  Xuantian Ba heard Tianwang's words and his face changed slightly. He said coldly, "What do you mean? When did I ever cheat you?"

  "Tianba brother, you just said this little kid is your new apprentice?"

  "That's right, what's wrong?"

  "A new disciple? Don't tell me you accepted him when he was already at the Martial Emperor cultivation level?" Tian Wang said in a cold tone, as if he knew everything.

  "No, when I took him as a disciple, he was only at the high-level Wu Zong cultivation stage, how is that?"

  "High-ranking Wu Zong?" The Heavenly King's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself: people who have reached their level of cultivation wouldn't be able to hide anything from them. He naturally saw that Zhang Huaming's actual age was absolutely not over twenty years old. Even if he had started cultivating from the womb, even if he had a Dan-making master providing him with elixirs for cultivation, it would still be impossible for him to reach this level of cultivation. Unless there was one possibility: this child was an exceptionally talented freak, only then could it be considered plausible.

  "Cut the crap, I'm not going to waste any more words on you. I'll go take a look at what my disciple's wife looks like." Xuan Tian Ba directly stretched out his palm and pushed away the Heavenly King blocking his way.

  "Disciple's wife?" The Heavenly King saw the backs of Xuan Tian Ba and others leaving, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he immediately chased after them, saying: "Brother Tian Ba, is this disciple's wife a member of your family?"

  The Heavenly King asked questions while his eyes were fixed on Yu Zong, who was leading the way, and his eyes were full of inquiry. The latter lowered his head and led the way, thinking to himself: "You two are both great gods, I'd rather not provoke you, let's just hide for now."

  "Paralyzed, indeed this old guy is here for the Huo Ling body, what to do? The Heavenly King saw Yu Zong's attitude, if he still didn't understand, then he was a pig. Suddenly, his heart became anxious."

  "Is there a problem? Tian Wang, don't even mention it, you know? My disciple's wife is that little girl with the Fire Spirit Body. You arrived before me, did you see her?" Xuan Tian Ba said with a smug expression, as if everything had already been settled, completely disregarding the principle of first come, first served.

  The Heavenly King saw the appearance of Xuan Tian Ba and revealed a surprised expression on his face, saying: "Is this true? Impossible! Brother Tian Ba, could it be that the Yu family has two women with the Fire Spirit Body?"

  "Two? No way! As far as I know, there's only one! Tian Wang, why are you saying such a thing?" Xuan Tian Ba asked with an expression of confusion.

  "Paralyzed, you damn well better pretend to be dead!" Tian Wang thought to himself.

  "Paralyzed, I'm going to disgust you to death. If this chick's looks are okay, I'll definitely disgust you once." Xuan Tianba secretly rejoiced in his heart.

  The King of Heaven adjusted his thoughts and put on a smile, saying: "Brother Tianba doesn't know, this time I came to propose to the Yu family, and the object of the proposal is that woman with the fire spirit body in the Yu family. Doesn't Brother Tianba know?"

  "Who says this girl has to marry into your family? I've already reserved her for myself long ago."

  "Tianba brother, you this..."

  "What's this? If you're not convinced, let's have a one-on-one match. If I lose, I'll give this disciple to your family's younger generation. If you lose, this girl will become my disciple. It's settled."

  Domineering! Awesome! Ruthless, this is what Zhang Huaming is thinking in his heart at the moment. Originally, he always thought that his master's actions were very gentle and mild, but he didn't expect that there was such a side to him. This is completely a domineering behavior, but from another angle, it can also reveal a problem, that is, they have the strength to despise others. After all, one needs to have a certain amount of strength to pretend to be tough, without strength, pretending to be tough is courting death, it's a stupid move.
