702: 216_6 702: 216_6 “But Old Chao,” you don’t need to be so hard on yourself.
After so ti, I will personally lead everyone to take our revenge!”
Cao Zhen consoled Chao Zi Zai with a few more words, then headed towards Four Treasures Peak.
However, upon his return, he did not visit any of his disciples; instead, he locked himself in his room.
He had been feeling oppressed all day, especially after visiting Spirit Mountain and engraving the nas of Deng Qixing and the others who had sacrificed themselves for the Hundred Peaks Sect on the Brave Spirit Bell.
After seeing Chao Zi Zai, his feelings of oppression grew stronger, and he beca deeply despondent.
Involuntarily, his thoughts turned to his parents.
Soon, Cao Zhen connected with the China Cloud and instantly his father’s figure appeared in his vision.
In front of a reservoir at an unknown location, his father, Cao Xinbang, was wearing a black baseball cap, seated on a folding stool with both hands gripping a fishing rod, looking utterly leisurely.
Thanks to Boss Ma, his parents didn’t have to worry about food or drink, and they knew their son was very safe.
They had even started the cultivation technique he had given them, and the quality of their life couldn’t be better.
His mother had many cats and dogs at ho, and his father’s greatest pleasure was fishing.
Seeing his father’s relaxed appearance, Cao Zhen finally showed a hint of a smile and softly spoke up, “Dad…”
“Little Cao.” Cao Xinbang’s body suddenly jolted.
Although Cao Zhen had communicated with him many tis in this way and he knew that he couldn’t see his son, he still couldn’t help but look around, muttering softly, “Appearing and disappearing so suddenly, a little warning would be nice, you scared away my fish, are you going to compensate ?”
“Dad…” Cao Zhen called out helplessly, “Only you can hear when I talk, and I can’t scare your fish…”
His father, clearly missing him terribly, began blaming him upon his arrival.
“You won’t scare my fish, but you could scare , and then what if I scare the fish?
Do you know how many days I’ve been here prepping this spot?” Cao Xinbang settled his fishing rod again and complained, “You haven’t co to see and your mom in a long while.
I don’t really mind because I can co fishing, but your mom…
You haven’t contacted her in over a month, and she’s getting anxious.
She nags so much that I’m almost getting calluses on my ears.”
“I’ve been busy…” Cao Zhen subconsciously replied, but after finishing the sentence, he suddenly realized that was the sa excuse he used on Earth when his mother complained about him not coming ho often – that he was busy…
But was he really?
Couldn’t he squeeze just a little ti out of his day?
“Busy…
Didn’t your martial arts competition end?
Didn’t you tell that you ca out as the champion?” Cao Xinbang secured his fishing rod with one hand and took out a cigarette with the other; lighting it with a flick, he took a drag before asking, “What are you busy with now?
Also, why are you contacting this ti, do you have sothing on your mind?”
Cao Zhen instinctively responded, “There’s nothing on my mind.”
He was used to hiding things like this.
Back on Earth, he rarely talked to his parents about any troubles he faced.
And now, despite feeling oppressed and wanting to see his parents, he chose not to say anything once he saw his father.
Cao Xinbang said dismissively, “No trouble?
Don’t think just because you’re so kind of Immortal now and I can’t see you that you can fool your old man.
You’re my flesh and blood; you can’t trick .
Tell , what happened?”
“There is sothing, dad.
I told you about joining a sect called the Hundred Peaks Sect, right?” Cao Zhen began, “In our world, there have been so changes.
All the powerful masters have fallen into slumber.
And now, I can say I’m one of the strongest people in that world, and maybe soon that ‘one of’ can be removed.
My disciples are also extrely capable, so the Hundred Peaks Sect chose to be the Sect Leader, but a previous decision I made was a mistake, and we were attacked.
By the ti I got back, it was too late and many had died in battle.”
“So, you think it’s your fault they died?” Cao Xinbang quickly understood and said, “I don’t know how to comfort you on this matter.
And don’t tell your mother about this; she’ll worry about your safety again.
I’m telling you, actually…”
Cao Xinbang tried to find the right words to comfort his son, yet after talking for so long, he realized he hadn’t received any response.
“This damn kid, just like before, leaves without saying a word.
He’s probably gone to see his mother.
Sigh…
I don’t even know what kind of situation he’s in right now, being a Sect Leader, managing an entire sect…”
Without asking about the battle and whether his son had been injured, Cao Xinbang didn’t inquire not because he didn’t care, but rather because his son said he was one of the strongest people there.
Even the strongest can face dangers.
After chatting with his father, Cao Zhen quickly found his mother and talked with her about everyday things.
Even though neither his father nor his mother had offered any comfort, and his mother even nagged him to hurry up and find a wife, his mood inadvertently brightened considerably after seeing his parents.
Great Lai Dynasty.
After the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and the people from the three major Immortal Sects of the Great Lai Dynasty had retreated to the Great Lai Dynasty, they finally stopped to tally their losses, which led to extrely somber expressions.
They did not count the Red Refinery Demonic Sect.
After fleeing, the mbers of the Red Refinery did not enter the Great Lai Dynasty but left on their own.
These three major Immortal Sects, along with the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, had lost nearly four hundred Golden Core masters in this battle!
“Four hundred, all Golden Core masters!
None of our Immortal Sects have this many Golden Core masters.
We’ve lost so many and didn’t even manage to take down the Hundred Peaks Sect!
What’s more important is that the masters from Hundred Peaks Sect, Cao Zhen, Xiang Ziyu, Ling Xi, and the rest have all returned.
If we attack their Hundred Peaks Sect today, once they recover, they will surely retaliate against us.
What will we do then?”
The people from the three major Immortal Sects simultaneously turned their gaze towards the Sun Erosion Demon of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect.
No one knew where the lair of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect was.
If the Hundred Peaks Sect sought revenge, they would naturally only target the three major Immortal Sects.
What about the Sun and Moon Demon Sect then?
