Young Noble Be Monster Slaying-Chapter 750: Give your Brother A Hand

As soon as the Sea Master left, chaos erupted within the pavilion.

The Celestial Master turned his gaze at Lin Bei—the most exposed among the veiled disciples of the Dark King Sect and someone he had never met before. He suddenly remarked, "Young man, with your thick brows and bright eyes, you look as if you’re brimming with righteous qi."

"Hehehe! Celestial Master..." Lin Bei was about to humbly express his gratitude, ready to claim he was merely three times as handsome as Yang Shenlong. But before the words left his lips, he suddenly recalled that he was now a disciple of a diabolical sect. His expression stiffened, and he immediately questioned, "What's with the sudden insult?"

The Celestial Master merely chuckled. "I am not that talented, but I do have some skill in predicting the fate of people by looking at their faces."

His smile remained as he continued, "Judging by your features, you were meant to walk the righteous path and be the disciple of an immortal sect in the first half of your life. In the later half of your life, you would own a brothel or a restaurant. You were never meant for the diabolical path. Instead, you would live a long life as a good-hearted man."

"For real...?"

Lin Bei nearly broke into a grin. The life that the Celestial Master had described was, after all, his lifelong dream! It was a pleasant surprise to know that his dream would come true.

However, in the next instant, he snapped back to reality and quickly replaced his smile with a scowl. "Utter nonsense! Celestial Master, I respect you as an esteemed senior, but you can’t just slander people like this! I am someone who will turn an old granny in the wrong direction before helping her cross the street! And you call me a good person?"

“Celestial Master, do you suspect that this guy is a spy of the righteous factions?” the Black Golden Crow asked as his eyes locked onto Lin Bei.

Immediately, Lin Bei felt this terrifying pressure pinning him to his seat. He couldn’t move a muscle.

The Black Golden Crow continued, “Then just kill him.”

Before the words had even fully left his mouth, a spark of black fire shot out from between the feathers on his back and streaked straight toward Lin Bei!

Whoosh!

Just that spark of black fire carried the destructive force of a collapsing mountain!

Boom!

At this critical moment, Wang Xuanling tried to stop the Black Golden Crow. However, because his cultivation level was slightly lower, his reaction was slower.

Daoist Yan raised her arm and extended two fingers. Sword qi condensed at her fingertips, and with a sizzling sound, the black fire was extinguished. However, it came at a cost. Wisps of azure smoke wafted from her fingers.

“It’s the Dao Master of the Cloud of Determination!”

The moment Daoist Yan struck, the truth could no longer be concealed. The real evildoers—the Celestial Master, the Black Golden Crow, and Immortal Yuan Lu—leaped up, their eyes gleaming as they cast six beams of divine light on Daoist Yan.

The righteous sects had planned to wait until Wuchao and the Sea Master clashed before making their move. The moment the demons and evildoers were fully engaged and were less aware of their surroundings, the righteous sects would reveal themselves and launch a coordinated assault. At this point, the Imperial Supervisory Commissioner and other Eminent Ones had yet to appear; moving in too soon would only raise suspicion.

However, they didn’t expect the Celestial Master to be so perceptive and notice something was off about Lin Bei. They also didn’t expect the Black Golden Crow to be so decisive, going for a kill the moment Lin Bei was suspected.

If they were to sacrifice Lin Bei, the evildoers would not have been alerted this soon. By the time the righteous factions laid siege, it would be even harder for these evildoers to escape.

A more ruthless Eminent One might have chosen not to save Lin Bei. But Daoist Yan, despite her aloof nature, was still a member of the Mount Shu Sect—a sect that upheld the principle of never abandoning and never giving up on another fellow disciple. She couldn’t simply stand by and do nothing.

Daoist Yan bore the full weight of their attention and pressure. In that instant, Lin Bei felt as if the mountain pressing down on his shoulders had been lifted, leaving him light and nimble. Without a second thought, he turned and bolted.

Lin Bei, the only one who was not an Eminent One, knew this battle was far beyond his level. It was a battle he had no place in.

On the other hand, there was someone who did totally the opposite of what Lin Bei had done.

A loud roar sounded from the third floor. “The fight has finally started! Let me see who dares touch Yan Zi!”

Di Nufeng guffawed and leaped down as a ball of violet-gold flames! She headed toward Immortal Yuan Lu. She had chosen Immortal Yuan Lu as his target because of two reasons.

Firstly, he had been the one who said that he wanted to kill Daoist Yan. Secondly, of the three masters of the Heavenly Origin, he was clearly the weakest.

If she had to choose, she would obviously choose the softest of the powerful targets.

If it turned out that he was not soft, she would just have to hammer him down a few more times.

Immortal Yuan Lu was totally caught off guard. Just moments ago, he had been boldly declaring his intent to kill Daoist Yan, never expecting that Daoist Yan would appear right before him. But before Daoist Yan could even make a move, a ball of Samadhi Divine Fire came hurtling toward him.

Even as an eighth-realm Eminent One, he couldn't ignore the Samadhi Divine Fire that Di Nufeng had unleashed. As he twisted his body, this black void suddenly formed within him and the ball of fire shot straight through him, entering the black void and exiting from the back in a sharp whoosh.

The Black Golden Crow, standing right behind Immortal Yuan Lu, frowned. As a temporary ally, Immortal Yuan Lu’s actions were hardly befitting of one.

With a sweep of his left wing that seemed to be forged from pure black diamond, the Black Golden Crow struck the Samadhi Divine Fire. Black flames coiled around his wing as it collided with the divine fire, erupting in a thunderous explosion. Yet, he emerged completely unscathed!

It was just as expected of the Wing Master’s incredible wings!

The Celestial Master’s left hand trembled slightly, and countless translucent lines, like delicate spiderwebs, extended from everyone present. But before he could act, Baize lifted her hood, revealing a face radiant with divine brilliance.

Whoosh!

With a flash of brilliance, the figures around her dissolved into soft, glowing halos, leaving only the Celestial Master and Baize with corporeal forms.

“The Realms of Yin and Yang?” the Celestial Master asked hesitantly. “Baize of Mount Shu?”

Ripples spread beneath Baize's feet as she slowly approached him. "I heard someone plotted against me back then, and it was your subordinate who carried it out. But you're not on the brink of ascension, so whose orders were you following?"

...

On the third floor, after Di Nufeng leaped down for a kill, Grand Ancestor Fuyou hesitated as he observed the unfolding chaos below. The sudden change was jarring even for those present, let alone an old man who had been detached from the outside world for two thousand years.

He couldn't quite grasp the changes in the alliance downstairs, so he simply frowned and observed, choosing not to act immediately.

At this moment, Chu Liang, who was next to him, pulled off his black robe and revealed the white sword robes typically worn by the disciples of the Mount Shu Sect. He then said solemnly, Grand Ancestor Fuyou, you said you wanted to leave the darkness and be part of the light, right? Well, now's the time!"

"Ah?" Grand Ancestor Fuyou was stunned as he stared at Chu Liang, who had transformed from looking utterly diabolical to radiating righteous qi. He couldn’t help but think, Does it really just take a change of clothes? Is it that easy to desert the evil ways and become righteous? Then why am I here working so hard for it...

"The ones below are Noble Baize and Daoist Yan of Mount Shu. They are the two powerful masters of the Heavenly Origin, and they came here to eliminate the evildoers. If you help them, Mount Shu can help you be recognized as part of the righteous path." Chu Liang enunciated each word clearly. "We will vouch for this with the reputation of the Mount Shu Sect in the Divine Nine on the line."

When Grand Ancestor Fuyou heard this, he looked confused and asked slowly, "I know Mount Shu, but what is the Divine Nine?"

Chu Liang yelled inwardly, This is common sense! If you didn’t know, you should’ve asked earlier, okay???

He then took a quick look at the fight and saw that Daoist Yan had already joined forces with Di Nufeng to attack the Black Golden Crow. Meanwhile, Immortal Yuan Lu was assisting the Black Golden Crow from the side, unleashing a barrage of fierce and rapid attacks.

Because the fight started earlier than the time they had intended, the powerful cultivators outside had yet to arrive at the pavilion. As a result, the righteous side had fewer eighth-realm powerhouses in the fight and was now at a disadvantage.

It was already difficult for one seventh-realm and one eighth-realm cultivator to take on two eighth-realm opponents, especially when one of the eighth-realm opponents was the Black Golden Crow, a powerhouse at the peak of the eighth realm. Even if Chu LIang joined the fight, his contribution wouldn’t make much of a difference. However, if he could convince Grand Ancestor Fuyou to switch sides, that would be enough to turn the tide of battle.

Chu Liang turned around and said, "There's no time to explain! You just need to know who the good guys and bad guys are. Everything I told you before about attacking Grand Ancestor Wuchao wasn’t true. The real goal is to eradicate the evildoers!"

The old man still looked a little dazed, as if silently questioning, Then what exactly is the truth? What should I believe?

Just then, Lin Bei, who had been fleeing moments ago, charged up to the third floor, shouting, "Oldie Brodie! Give your brother a hand! Help a brother out!"

Grand Ancestor Fuyou looked at Lin Bei and suddenly said with determination, "If it wasn't because of Brother Lin Bei, how would I have escaped the underground cavern of Misty Island? As the saying goes, one must give peaches in return for plums.[1] How can I let him fall into danger? Fine! I shall help you this once!"

As soon as he said that, he leaped forward while yelling, "This place is too dangerous! Get out of here at once!"

Chu Liang and Lin Bei felt a wave of dizziness as streaks of red light enveloped them and moved them to the doors of the pavilion on the first floor. Grand Ancestor Fuyou had been the one who helped them leave this place.

"Oldie Brodie, you're a true brother!" Lin Bei declared passionately. "I'll go rally reinforcements right now! Let’s see who dares to lay a hand on you!"

As soon as he said those fierce words, he turned and ran away!

However, just as Lin Bei and Chu Liang rushed out of the pavilion, they were met with a shocking sight. The entire sky was erupting in a chain of brilliant explosions, like a vast sea of stars bursting apart. It was Grand Ancestor Wuchao pursuing the Sea Master.

They then saw this wisp of black smoke flying toward them at high speed!

From within the smoke, a desperate voice howled, "What were you two doing in there?! Hurry up and give me a hand!"
