Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation-Chapter 298 - 293 Shameless Ding Huan

"Valley Master, please wait." Just as Wu Zhanxia could no longer avoid confrontation, a somewhat chubby man rushed out to block his path.

Wu Zhanxia snorted coldly and forcibly suppressed his killing intent, speaking coldly,

"What now, Che Zhongzi, you dare to block me?"

Che Zhongzi hurriedly said, "Valley Master, I have no objections to you taking action. I still remember the year you slaughtered twenty-seven Earth Immortals at the Perfect level. I also believe you could easily crush these people..."

Ding Huan lazily spoke up,

"Would you die if you didn’t brag? Come on, our people are out here, let’s see you try to kill them."

Che Zhongzi also gave a fist salute to Ding Huan, "Sect Master Ding, I am objecting to the situation, not the person."

Ding Huan left no room for Che Zhongzi, "Cut the crap, I don’t buy it. Come on, show me this so-called crushing."

Wu Zhanxia internally cursed Che Zhongzi, calling him a foolish donkey. All you had to do was to let me step down gracefully, why provoke that Ding lunatic?

Just by looking at the words Ding Huan had said to him before, one could tell this was not a man who could be provoked, nor one to be trifled with verbally.

Che Zhongzi spoke unhurriedly once more, "Sect Master Ding, I know you’re strong, but are you stronger than our Valley Master?"

"Yeah, I am stronger than your Valley Master. What about it? Can’t accept it?" Ding Huan stated calmly.

This response completely flustered Che Zhongzi.

He had already determined that Ding Huan’s strength was not on par with the Valley Master’s, even quite a bit behind.

Ding Huan was formidable because his Tao Domain was very powerful, and under the cover of his Tao Domain, he could share it with his allies to confront enemies, which was terrifying.

He asked this question just expecting Ding Huan to admit that he was indeed not as strong as Master Wu. That would have been enough.

As long as Ding Huan admitted to being inferior to Master Wu, whether or not the others could measure up to Master Wu was clear in everyone’s hearts.

However, Ding Huan’s reply was completely unexpected, and this shameless response left Che Zhongzi at a loss for words.

"Sect Master Ding, you could challenge our Valley Master to a fight, but first, I must inform the Valley Master of the facts. As for how he will handle it afterward, that’s not my concern."

It had to be said that Che Zhongzi was still very adaptable, promptly steering the topic elsewhere.

He was certain that if Ding Huan were to fight the Valley Master, Ding Huan definitely wouldn’t engage directly, as he had a thousand reasons not to.

After stating his piece, Che Zhongzi ignored Ding Huan and turned to address Wu Zhanxia,

"Valley Master, why are we staying here? It’s all for the pursuit of Immortal Fate. To pursue Immortal Fate is to respect causality and righteousness.

Shi Changyi disregarded righteousness, protecting those from Changyan Academy who imprisoned outsiders, which goes against our pursuit.

Cause leads to effect, and that’s why we’ve wasted so much time here arguing with outsiders, even being incited and used by Shi Changyi, nearly reaching the point of anger and the verge of violence.

I think it’s not worth it, nor is it necessary. Even if the Valley Master wishes to duel with Sect Master Ding, it should not be related to this matter."

Wu Zhanxia’s expression improved a bit, and he nodded.

Che Zhongzi continued,

"What I mean is, the Valley Master can engage with Sect Master Ding, not because of Shi Changyi’s actions, but to verify the Great Dao and clarify the Immortal Bridge.

However, I suggest the Valley Master better not take action, because how many years have we been seeking Immortal Fate here? The Immortal Bridge Dao Rhythm is visibly clear.

Since we’re to verify it, it should be done together with the fellow cultivators within the Valley. Why give outsiders the advantage?"

Ding Huan looked at the fat man before him. Shameless! Can words even be twisted this way?

At the same time, he couldn’t help but feel that this chubby man was quite talented.

His words not only preserved Wu Zhanxia’s dignity but also dissolved the doubts of many cultivators.

Wu Zhanxia didn’t reply but instead retracted the aura of his Daoist Rhythm, clearly unwilling to take action anymore.

His silence was more straightforward than any answer—it meant he disdained to reply, as well as to engage Ding Huan, leaving Ding Huan to comprehend the Taoist Rhythm of the Immortal Bridge here.

Ding Huan could only say to Cang Yongqian, "Lao Cang, go and take out Shi Changyi."

Wu Zhanxia wasn’t taking initiative, so there was no way he was going to charge in recklessly.

He stood at the entrance to the Protecting Array, ready to attack or defend as needed.

This was Wu Zhanxia’s territory, and should he relinquish this entrance, he would lose the initiative.

How many years had Wu Zhanxia operated here? With Magical Treasures that could simulate the Dao Rhythm of the Immortal Bridge, who knew if Wu Zhanxia had set any deadly traps deeper inside?

Standing at this doorway, even if he weren’t a match for his opponents, he could easily retreat.

Once he withdrew, under his Star Domain, his allies’ strengths were intact, while Wu Zhanxia, if he chased after them, would simply be heading to his doom.

Once he stepped out of the Star Domain Realm, ascending to the next level of cultivation, he would no longer need this advantage and could rush in directly.

Considering Wu Zhanxia’s face? Not a chance.

Upon hearing Ding Huan’s words, Cang Yongqian’s long knife once again whipped up a screen of blade light toward Shi Changyi.

Seeing that Wu Zhanxia had no intention to act, Shi Changyi hastily tried to rush deeper inside.

However, he had just dashed out when he was repelled by a dark light flashing toward him.

"Thud!" Cang Yongqian’s blade screen precisely unfurled and easily tore Shi Changyi into two.

"Great-uncle..." a shocked cry rang out.

The crowd then noticed it was a man held in Fei Zhankong’s hand, and Ding Huan recognized him. Wasn’t this Shi Qi Qiu?

The dark light that had forced Shi Changyi to retreat was also deployed by Fei Zhankong.

Behind Fei Zhankong, Lou Fenyan was carrying the blood-covered Liu Yinyu.

Fei Zhankong threw Shi Qi Qiu at Ding Huan’s feet, and laughed loudly, "Mission accomplished."

"Many thanks, Brother Fei." Ding Huan saluted with a fist, then coldly stared at Shi Qi Qiu on the ground.

Shi Qi Qiu completely calmed down; just now, he had seen with his own eyes Cang Yongqian cleave his uncle from Changyan Academy, Shi Changyi, to death.

Now facing Ding Huan, though he had calmed down, he still couldn’t figure out what was actually happening.

"Shi Qi Qiu, if you really dared to attack my Blue Star Sect, I would indeed admire your audacity. You didn’t have the ability to confront me directly, so you wiped out the Mandarin Duck Pavilion, heh, your Changyan Academy indeed has some skills..."

Hearing Ding Huan’s icy voice sent a chill down Shi Qi Qiu’s spine:

"Ding Huan, even if you kill me, Shi Qi Qiu, my Changyan Academy won’t let your Blue Star Sect go."

It was clear that, in Shi Qi Qiu’s eyes, Changyan Academy was still a step above the Blue Star Sect.

Ding Huan indifferently stated, "Changyan Academy is a thing of the past. Before I entered the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, I had already wiped out Changyan Academy."

Shi Qi Qiu was stunned, his lips trembling without producing a single word.

Hearing that Changyan Academy had been wiped out, his mind went blank.

Was it because he, Shi Qi Qiu, coveted the treasures on Ding Huan’s person, resulting in Changyan Academy’s disappearance, the killing of his great-uncle Shi Changyi, and most likely his own impending death...

Just as Shi Qi Qiu thought this, he felt a cool breeze slide across his neck.

The breath of death enveloped him, and what he saw again was his own headless corpse.

Shi Qi Qiu frantically deployed a Forbidden Technique, wanting his Primordial Spirit to shatter and not be captured by Ding Huan.

But in the next moment, a fireball locked all his lifeforce; his Primordial Spirit didn’t even manage to spill out of his body before being engulfed by the flames, resulting in the annihilation of both body and Divine Soul.

"Thank you, Ding Sect Master, for saving me and avenging the great wrong against my Mandarin Duck Pavilion."

Lou Fenyan put down Liu Yinyu and moved forward to salute, her voice trembling.

Had it not been for Ding Huan’s revelation, she would never have believed Changyan Academy could be destroyed.

Changyan Academy in Jiuyuan City, who would dare exterminate them?

Not to mention other forces, just the City Lord of Jiuyuan City stepping out to intervene would deter anyone from acting rashly.

Ding Huan apologetically said,

"I should be the one apologizing. You spoke up for me, which is why Shi Qi Qiu, the old bully, took out his anger on you."

Lou Fenyan shook her head; she knew that Ding Huan’s incident was the catalyst, but certain things were better left unsaid here.

"Is Lord Liu okay?" Ding Huan asked, looking at Liu Yinyu who was healing her injuries with a concerned gaze.

Lou Fenyan sighed, "Lord Liu is strong-willed, not as diplomatic as I am, and thus suffered more torment."

Fortunately, Liu Yinyu soon opened her eyes and said weakly to Ding Huan,

"Thank you, Ding Sect Master, I’m alright."

She truly hadn’t expected to survive, let alone to be rescued by Ding Huan.

Ding Huan’s hand waved, and Shi Qi Qiu’s ring was snatched into his grasp. His Divine Will moved, effortlessly breaking the Prohibition on Shi Qi Qiu’s ring, and then two rings were taken out by Ding Huan.

"Valley Master Lou, Palace Master Liu, these are your rings, now returned to their rightful owners."

Neither Lou Fenyan nor Liu Yinyu had thought they would get their rings back.

However, seeing everything intact inside the rings, both were overjoyed.

Liu Yinyu took a Medicine Pill from her ring and swallowed it, quickly standing up.

"Let’s go," Ding Huan called after seeing Liu Yinzhu get up, preparing to leave.

Once out of this place, he would have to wage war against Jiuyuan.

Therefore, he needed to prepare as well.

As for this place, once his cultivation was stronger, he would definitely return. He always felt there was something strange here, and despite his efforts to figure it out, nothing concrete came to light.

"Ding Sect Master, take me with you. My name is Mu Chengzi, and I have some expertise in Artifact Refining," an elder with white hair and beard rushed out, saluting with a fist.

"No problem," Ding Huan agreed without even thinking.

Anyone here joining his side, he would agree without hesitation.

Wu Zhanxia, seeing Mu Chengzi leave, showed a look of anxiety on his face.

Those who knew the ins and outs were very clear that Mu Chengzi was a Level 9 Artifact Refining master, whose mastery over the Artifact Path was at its peak, and such a person would be of great assistance to Wu Zhanxia.

Moreover, everyone understood.

As long as Wu Zhanxia spoke up, Ding Huan would inevitably find an excuse to fight him.
