The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak was beaten so badly that his face was covered with handprints. He was dumbfounded, looking at the Divine Master with a face full of shock, unable to co to his senses for a long ti.
"Listen carefully!" the Divine Master said coldly, "They are my brothers, comrades who fight alongside , not my subordinates. You, however, are just a dog under my command, understand?"
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak finally snapped out of it, and in a fit of rage, he grabbed the long blade on his back and roared, "I'll fight you to the death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Master imdiately raised his hand. The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak felt as if his entire body had gone stiff; all the power in his body did not obey, and he couldn't even draw the long blade.
He tried with all his might, but even the slightest movent was impossible for his body. He couldn't even open his mouth to speak; it was as if his acupoints had been struck, rendering him completely frozen in place.
The others, seeing his predicant, began to sneer. The Divine Master's earlier slap and words made everyone very satisfied.
The Divine Master looked at the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak like he was watching an idiot, waited a while, then finally moved his finger.
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak felt he could open his mouth and imdiately yelled, "Divine Master, what did you do? Let go..."
"Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak, you may be an important figure, having lived for hundreds of years, yet you have no common sense at all?" the Divine Master sighed, "You'll dare to eat whatever others offer you?"
"Eat?" The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak's face changed drastically, "The elixir pills you gave earlier, are they poisoned?"
"Not poisoned, just with a little extra ingredient," the Divine Master smiled.
"You... you poisoned ?" the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak exclaid.
"I already said, it's not poison!" the Divine Master laughed, "I just added so Gu Worms inside, Gu Worms from the Heavenly Realm that even Land Immortals can't resist!"
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak's face changed again. To be cursed was much more terrifying than to be poisoned.
Poison at most just causes poisoning, even death.
But once Gu Worms act, it's far more terrifying than poisoning. It's truly a fate where you can't live or die!
"You... you cursed ..." the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak panicked; he was truly frightened.
"Why would you curse ? We... we are partners..." the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak said anxiously.
"It's precisely because we are rely partners that I had to curse you!" the Divine Master laughed, "People like you are unreliable. You even tried to run away and leave Liao Yuxuan there to die. How could I not be wary of soone like you?"
"You... you..." the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak opened his mouth but couldn't speak, while Liao Yuxuan laughed.
Earlier, the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak had tried to escape alone, leaving him behind, an act for which he was furious and also wanted revenge. But now, he didn't even need to act.
"Don't worry, as long as you work well for , you can pretend the Gu Worms don't even exist!" the Divine Master said with a faint smile.
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak's face was extrely grim; even though his heart was very reluctant, he had to admit he really had no choice.
At that mont, regret filled the heart of the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak. Had he known this, he would rather have stayed hidden for life or spent his life on the run than collaborate with the Divine Master. It was like seeking skin with the tiger!
"Though you are quite disrespectful to , I'll still answer your earlier question!" the Divine Master said, "First off, why not kill Beigong War God? Let put it this way, what direct significance do you think killing Beigong War God has?"
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak was stunned for a mont, "Killing him would an Su Yang would lose a great general. It would also be a big blow to Su Yang, and we would have our revenge!"
"Heh..." the Divine Master chuckled, "That's why soone like you can only plan small things and never achieve great success."
"What do you an?" The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak was very angry; if he hadn't been cursed, he would have already started swearing. Why say that about ?
"To achieve great things, one cannot be concerned with short-term gains and losses," the Divine Master said softly, "Killing a Beigong War God might affect Su Yang, but not by much. On the contrary, given Beigong War God's current strength, if we push him too hard, he might risk his life to take at least two of our people down with him. Is it worth sacrificing two of our people to kill soone whose impact isn't significant?"
The people around the Divine Master shook their heads simultaneously; no one was willing to die.
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak scratched his head; he had to admit that what the Divine Master said was true.
"Furthermore, although we lured away the Three Eagles of Yanbei, they might return at any mont. Killing Beigong War God isn't easy. If he manages to delay until the Three Eagles of Yanbei return, we'll lose more than just two people!" the Divine Master continued.
These words left the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak with nothing more to say. Just as the Divine Master said, if the Three Eagles of Yanbei returned, apart from the Divine Master, none of them could hope to escape.
"Then... then you could just take us and run without ntioning anything about Qi Zhishan!" the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak complained, "Qi Zhishan is very powerful. Once he revives, Su Yang will gain a strong expert, which... which isn't good for us..."
"You don't understand!" the Divine Master smiled lightly, "It's not that easy for Su Yang to save Qi Zhishan, not to ntion Qi Zhishan is broken to pieces. Whether he can be saved is uncertain. Furthermore, the place where I hid Qi Zhishan is in a dangerous area within the World lting Furnace. When that demon forged the World lting Furnace, the places where the most deaths occurred were these dangerous areas. If Su Yang really goes there, haha, whether he can return alive is still unknown!"
"Really?" the Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak was overjoyed; his hatred for Su Yang was extre. If Su Yang could be killed, it would indeed be a joyous event.
"Now you see Divine Master's wisdom and foresight!" Liao Yuxuan glanced at him with disdain, "Do you still use your petty perspective to guess Divine Master's intentions?"
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak was joyous and didn't refute, nodding repeatedly, "Divine Master, you really consider things thoroughly."
"However, I don't really want Su Yang to die just yet," the Divine Master said slowly, taking everyone by surprise.
The Peak Master of Sky Blade Peak looked at the Divine Master in astonishnt. What did he an by not wanting Su Yang dead? Wasn't he deeply resentful of Su Yang? Why suddenly not want Su Yang dead?
