Chapter 424: Resuscitation

Translator: LawEditor: Hitesh

Ji Hao and Po stood behind Yu Yu, one on the left and the other on the right, quietly listening to the conversation between Yu Yu and that man.

After the horrible experience, Ji Hao had just been through, his primordial spirit nearly shattered by those overwhelming, hazy bamboo silhouettes, he had now been extremely cautious and careful. His primordial spirit was vigilantly guarded in his spirit space, while the Immemorial Sun Streamer had been slightly swaying, ready to release its full power at any moment. Circles of warm, golden light spread out from the sun streamer, defending the primordial spirit from all directions.

Po glanced at Ji Hao, who was wearing an extra serious and cautious look and silently locked his fingers into a particular motion. A tiny and exquisite jade talisman flew out from Po’s fingertips, transforming into a clear beam of light and falling on Ji Hao’s body.

A warm stream of power flew across Ji Hao’s entire body. Instantly, Ji Hao calmed down from the palpitation and nervousness he was suffering before and instead felt totally peaceful. He gratefully nodded at Po, and Po responded with a warm and honest grin. After that, Po turned to that middle-aged man, glaring at him with a pair of dagger-sharp eyes.

“First, my friend, you know that my tenet is different from the others. Now, Fan Hai can be seen as my disciple… So my friend, please do not try to hurt him in the future.” The first sentence said by that man was remarkably shocking.

Ji Hao looked at him astonished.

‘Is Fan Hai truly his disciple? In this case, it was totally reasonable for Gui Ling to show up unexpectedly, take over the sword formation and chop that flying zombie released from in-between Fan Hai’s eyebrows high up in the sky’, thought Ji Hao. Could this be counted as Yu Yu playing a dirty trick on those people on his own initiative?

“Eh?” Yu Yu looked at that man, pretended to be surprised and said, “Priest Hua, were you saying that Fan Hai is your disciple? How little did I think of this? You’ve been making fortunes lately, and it seems that you have indeed attained some substantial conveniences. Did you truly dare to take them in… even those non-humankind beings?”

The face of the middle-aged man, who was called ‘Priest Hua’ by Yu Yu, turned more and more distressed. His lips were curved down so much that his mouth corners had even nearly reached his chin. He then sighed deeply and said, “The great Dao is burdensome, and I can only struggle as hard as possible. My friend, why do you have to make the taunt about me?”

Priest Hua then gave a complicated glance at Yu Yu and continued coldly, “I must thank you, my friend, for showing mercy to Fan Hai.”

Yu Yu waved his hand and responded carelessly, “I did not know that he was your disciple. The one who controlled the sword formation was Gui Ling, my disciple. The reason why she showed mercy was only because we did not want to draw the old, troublesome ones forth, who might be hard to deal with, by killing the little and weak ones.”

Pausing briefly, Yu Yu continued in a serious tone, “At least, before I stepped across this doorsill, we shall not get a rise out of those old ones, who we both knew in those years.”

Similar to Yu Yu, Priest Hua’s look changed slightly as well. He remained silent for a while, then said in a deep voice, “That spirit flying zombie of Fan Hai was raised with his secret Nether Moon magic in combination with the admirable magic of our sect. The two types of magic merged into one, which was as marvelous as the demiurgic power of nature itself. That flying zombie was a method to prove the great Dao of mine, but it was chopped by your sword formation……Yu Yu, you have to give me a reasonable explanation.”

Clang! Yu Yu pulled his long sword out. A clear, cyan-colored sword light dazzled across the sky while releasing a fierce and frosty sense of power. He stared at Priest Hua and said in a deep voice, “Here is the explanation you required!”

Priest Hua clenched his fingers and gripped the bamboo staff, staying silent for a short while, after which he gave a faint smile and said, “If you insist on being unreasonable…”

Yu Yu interrupted him with an ice-cold voice, “I was born like this. I am an unreasonable one. Do not threaten me with the safety of my disciples… If any of my disciples suffered any grievances like a headache, fever or losing a limb… hehe, you would see rolling heads all over your place.”

“Heh!” Priest Hua flicked his fingers at the bamboo staff and gave a deep roar.

Yu Yu too let out a deep growl as his pair of eyes shone with a frosty light, “If Fan Hai was not an Emperor in Power, he would have been chopped along with that zombie as well. Priest Hua, you took a non-humankind being as your disciple. For this, even if I and my two brothers went to smash your dojo together, that would be entirely reasonable.” said Yu Yu.

Priest Hua gave no response for a short while, after which he said coldly, “In this case, what happened this time has to be settled anyway. If you claim that destroying Fan Hai’s flying zombie is reasonable, then you should bring Miao Yin back to me.”
