The child's life hangs by a thread, in grave danger!
Completely unaware of the impending disaster, the Western duo were still racking their brains and going to great lengths to please the child. After several attempts, they not only failed to achieve anything, but the child would also run away faster than a rabbit at the mere sight of them. The two of them were completely helpless against the child who was impervious to both reason and force.
"Why not just force him to obey? We don't need to care whether he wants to or not." Zhunti was furious. So much time had passed! They had made absolutely no progress! It was utterly shameful! A joke, a complete joke!
"You forgot, the Heavenly Dao is also watching us. It might turn us to ashes before it even makes a move..." Jieyin shook his head, helpless.
"...We can't just keep letting him hide from us forever!" Zhunti was furious. It was utterly humiliating, a joke! To be completely outmaneuvered by a brat, what kind of behavior was that!
"What are you going to do?" Jieyin asked, glancing at him with a frustrated expression.
Zhunti: "..." What else can I say? I don't think there's anything wrong with it!
Tongtian Little Cub bid farewell to his older brother who was still meditating and cultivating, and turned to leave. Seeing this, Black Lotus hurriedly followed. Its master had specifically instructed it to stay by the cub's side to protect him, firstly to atone for its sins, and secondly to take the opportunity to find out the enemy's internal situation.
Black Lotus had just quietly followed when it inexplicably sensed a unique spiritual presence calling to it. Black Lotus hesitated, unsure of what to do. As if sensing Black Lotus's dilemma, the spiritual presence grew increasingly excited, sending affectionate signals to it from time to time. It seemed to be one of the seven innate spiritual treasures, just like itself. It wondered which one it was. Perhaps it should go and meet it first; it swore it would only take one look and return immediately!
Unaware of the situation, the little boy Tongtian happily slipped down to the foot of the mountain. He wanted to find Bailian, but he had not only messed up his promise to Bailian to bring him a spirit butterfly, but had also killed one of the spirit butterflies. He felt extremely upset and wronged, and for no reason, he hated the culprit who burned the spirit butterfly even more...
"They must be liars... They're definitely not my brother. My brother would never bully Tongtian..." Tongtian muttered to himself, not knowing why he couldn't recall any memories of his brother. Whenever he tried desperately to remember, a storm would rise in his mind, determined to obliterate all his remaining memories. Fortunately, he stopped meditating in time and escaped a disaster.
"Kid, where have you been?" Before him stood Zhunti's almost inhumanly cold scrutiny. He glanced at the somewhat timid little boy Tongtian and gave him a merciless scolding.
The little boy Tongtian took a few steps back in fear, watching Zhunti's every move warily without uttering a sound.
This is the big bad guy who burned his Spirit Butterfly to death... It was a gift he gave to Bai Lian, but he never expected that this big bad guy would destroy it!
"Such disrespect and lack of manners are simply outrageous! Come here!" Zhunti was furious. He took out his blessed pestle and glared almost coldly at the unmoved cub. He was so angry!
"...No!" The little brat Tongtian refused readily. The fear in his round eyes had faded, replaced by a resolute determination! From the moment he burned his spirit butterfly to death, he had decided that he would fight this big bad guy to the very end!
"You dare talk back? Fine, fine! I'll beat you until you scream and beg for mercy!" Zhunti was furious. He roared and rushed forward, grabbing the boy by the back of the neck and shaking him hard! He'd been wanting to beat the boy for ages, and finally he could get his revenge! Don't worry, he'd get his revenge just like his two older brothers had! An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth—it's all fate!
"...Ugh! Let me go!" The little brat struggled, but to no avail, and was instead given a sharp rap on the head. His eyes immediately welled up with tears. It hurts so much! White Lotus, White Lotus, help me!
"Tsk, still trying to call for help? Now you're all alone, crying out to heaven and earth for help. I was on guard against you all along; Bai Lian was already taken care of by my brother! Don't you even know whose territory you're on now? To be honest, if it weren't for the abundant primordial merit you possess, you'd probably have been skinned alive, your tendons pulled out, and your bones ground to dust! I've never tasted such a delicious cub since I attained human form. You don't want to become my meal, do you?" Zhunti thought for a moment, then deliberately spoke in a low, chilling voice, uttering these terrifying words, instantly scaring the cub half to death. Eat, eat, eat a delicious, cub??? He... he... he... he... he... he... he's a devil! Aaaaaaaah!!!
Seeing that the boy was so scared that he didn't know how to resist, Zhunti couldn't help but feel a surge of secret pleasure. Hahaha, look at this silly boy, he can fool him every time. I don't know how he developed this personality. He's a bit of a natural airhead.
"Call me brother, and I won't eat you anymore." Zhunti was in a great mood and didn't make things difficult for the cub anymore. He turned around and hugged him, awkwardly and clumsily trying to pat his head, just like the head-patting gesture that Taiqing had used to comfort the cubs.
The child wouldn't let him hold him at all, struggling to avoid what might be the only time Zhunti had shown any kindness. Seeing that he couldn't break free, he angrily said, "Don't touch me! Tongtian hates you!"
Zhunti's smile froze on his face. He stared disapprovingly at the boy, who was already panting heavily from struggling. A storm gradually gathered in his eyes. "Fine, very well, you won't listen to reason, will you? It's impossible to slowly reform this brat by gradually boiling him like a frog in warm water! As expected, he's still the same unruly and unyielding Tongtian at heart. Hmph, since that's the case, he'll have to suffer a bit!"
"I'll say it one last time, do you submit or not?"
"I refuse to accept this! I'd rather die than accept this!" The anger that Tongtian had been holding back finally flared up. So what if it's just one life? At worst, he, Tongtian, will be a hero again after billions of years!
"Fine, very well indeed!" Zhunti laughed in exasperation, then pulled out the golden bowl. The boy's eyes instantly widened in terror. He sensed a subtle threat emanating from the bowl, and a chill ran through him. For some reason, the boy felt inexplicably uneasy and utterly resistant to the bowl. If he were trapped inside, he feared he would never be the same person again! In a flash, while Zhunti was still casting his spell, the boy desperately bit his hand, hoping to escape as he pulled away in pain!
The pained Zhunti, without thinking, flung the child's body out of control. The child's body flew straight into a large rock like a kite with a broken string. The rock was uneven, and a sharp stone hit the child squarely on the forehead. The child screamed and fell heavily to the ground, his body convulsing before becoming still.
Zhunti panicked. Seeing his son lying unconscious on the ground, his life hanging in the balance and his breath growing weaker, he was dumbfounded. He had been careless. Oh no, had he killed his son?
Just as he was about to step forward, a black lotus suddenly appeared around Zai inexplicably. In the blink of an eye, Zai was taken away. The black lotus also attacked Zhunti, who was forced back a few steps by the strange black energy, completely astonished.
Someone... someone is hiding in their sacred mountain?! This is terrible! This is a really big problem!!!
...
In the vast and boundless river of time, a pure white ball of energy, no bigger than the palm of your hand, is happily chasing after the starlight. In the long river formed by countless galaxies, the stars are densely packed like grains of sand, and at this moment, they are emitting faint starlight to guide the mischievous little ball of energy to a certain place.
The mischievous dumpling chased and chased until it was completely exhausted and could no longer keep up. It could only lie down and rest on the nearest star.
So tired, I just want to fall asleep like this… Tuanzi’s soft body trembled, its beady eyes gazing blankly at its surroundings. The sky was filled with dazzling starlight, and tiny specks of spiritual energy gently seeped into its body. Tuanzi suddenly felt like it could jump up again! But it was so tired. The weariness emanating from its heart made Tuanzi feel lost. Hmm, even if it died here, it would be a death without regrets. Being able to see these beautiful stars one more time would be worth it! Tuanzi’s consciousness gradually blurred, its originally soft and fluffy body becoming increasingly ethereal, almost transparent…
"Zai? Zai, wake up!" His older brother was calling him anxiously. The anxious voice made Zai react slightly. Zai weakly trembled his fingertips, as if he wanted to respond but did not have the strength to do so.
Big brother, is Tongtian about to dissipate? Without a trace of trouble or pain, is this what death is? Big brother, I'm sorry, I've made you sad again... Can you give Tongtian one last hug? Tuanzi's weak voice drifted into Luo Hou's ears, who was on the verge of collapse. Luo Hou's face grew even more gloomy, and the killing intent in his eyes was almost overflowing!
Looking at his son, whose breath was barely audible, lying in his arms, Luo Hou knew for the first time what heartache and anger truly meant! The son was covered in filth, blood seeping from his forehead, staining the ground with his blood—the blood of the Pure Land, fragrant and rich. Miraculously, where the blood had nourished, countless celestial flowers bloomed, so delicate and beautiful, just to bring a smile to the son's face. But alas, the son had already lost consciousness, his life force slowly fading away. The Heavenly Dao sensed this, and streaks of divine lightning swirled in the sky, lingering for a long time, watching the west with menacing intent!
Hongjun frowned slightly, and with a thought, he instantly teleported to the foot of Mount Ling. Something major must have happened, otherwise why would the Heavenly Dao be so enraged? And who was this Nine Heavens Divine Thunder aimed at?
He quickly calculated with his hand seals, his expression instantly changing drastically. His disciple was on the verge of death? How could such a terrible accident have happened out of nowhere? Where was he? Where was he? If he could find his disciple any faster, his disciple could be saved!
Luo Hou had already sensed the aura of his mortal enemy. He withdrew the terrifying aura from his body and stared at the Pure World White Lotus that had appeared out of nowhere with a mixture of anticipation and unease. It was frantically stimulating its own power to try to revive its cub's almost extinguished life force.
Not to be outdone, the black lotus spontaneously merged with the white lotus. The petals and leaves of the black and white lotuses overlapped and arranged in a strange and beautiful way! With the black lotus's blessing, the white lotus managed to preserve its offspring's last breath. As long as it didn't dissipate, it could be saved! It definitely could be saved!
"Child, you must live well. If you die like this, your brother will really go mad! Haven't you always been worried about your brother? Big brother promises to take you back to see your brother, okay? Please don't fall asleep, okay? Child! Be good, okay?" Luo Hou looked heartbroken, gently stroking the cub's almost bloodless face, his eyes filled with intense killing intent! Child, big brother will definitely kill those two bastards for you and avenge you, okay? Child, do you hear me? Luo Hou's voice trembled violently, on the verge of collapse.
Zhunti and Jieyin, you dared to kill our child! I will make you pay with your lives, and I will make the entire West pay for it!
Rahu's terrifying killing intent permeated the entire Spirit Mountain, like a gleaming knife hanging overhead, ready to nibble away the two little shrimps at any moment. Not to mention, there was also the Nine Heavens Thunder God, lurking and ready to attack at any time! My God, he's not even leaving them a way out!
Zhunti and Jieyin were filled with sorrow and looked around in fear, afraid that the powerful being hiding in their sacred mountain might rush out at any moment and slap them to death!
