Chapter 168: Ugly Wu Wu!

Yu Hongye originally thought that Yu Mingzhi brought those things to set off Senior Liu’s paintings, but she didn’t expect there to be something else.

Yu Mingzhi laughed and said, “You’re right. The other items are indeed just to make up the numbers. Your father and I didn’t place our hopes on those things. It’s all up to Senior Liu’s painting.”

Yu Hongye frowned and said, “Second Uncle, if we take Senior Liu’s painting and participate in the Myriad Treasure Convention, if we bear with Senior Liu’s displeasure and the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets loses its true backer, wouldn’t it be in vain?”

Yu Mingzhi wasn’t flustered. He said indifferently, “Do you think Senior Liu doesn’t know about this?”

Yu Hongye was stunned.

Yu Mingzhi continued, “Our Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets has long been a chess piece in Senior Liu’s hands. Nothing that we estimate can escape Senior Liu’s eyes.”

“I dare say that the series of actions that you took when you obtained this painting from Senior Liu and brought it to the Myriad Treasure Convention are all part of Senior Liu’s plan.”

“Think about it. If that wasn’t the case, would you have been able to obtain such a precious painting with the dozens of Ancient Immortal Jades in your hands? That was before you became Senior Liu’s inner chamber.”

Yu Hongye revealed a surprised and enlightened expression when she heard Yu Mingzhi’s words.

Yu Mingzhi smiled bitterly. “Do you think that I’m willing to give away such a precious treasure? This treasure is too hot to handle. It’s not something that our Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets can throw away.”

“Our Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets is just a chess piece for Senior Liu. Our purpose is only to help him send that painting to the Myriad Treasures Convention. Senior Liu’s next move is most likely related to the Immortals in the Myriad Treasures Convention.”

“Senior Liu’s plans are thousands of miles away. His chess game spans the Immortal and Mortal Worlds. This is truly a peerless expert. Even the Immortals of the upper realm are within his plans. One can imagine Senior Liu’s status. However, I guess Senior Liu would never have thought that you would be so bold to take the initiative to send yourself to him. This is your ability.”

When Yu Hongye heard Yu Mingzhi’s words, she was first shocked, then embarrassed.

…

Outside the formation of the Danxia Holy Land, a group of young cultivators wearing the same style of long robes landed on the flying boat.

The first person among these people had extraordinary looks and an extraordinary temperament. He looked like a peerless genius.

He seemed to be a disciple from the same sect.

One of them was green, but he didn’t seem to fit in with those people. It was as if he was a rogue cultivator who had blended in.

His appearance was ordinary, his skin was dark, and he was very dull and stiff.

What he saw that when people were not paying attention to him, his eyes suddenly flashed with a cunning light.

“Wu Wu, hurry up and follow me.”

A female disciple called out to the young man.

A handsome young man next to the female disciple immediately frowned and said, “What are you calling that person for? He is so ugly, and his temperament is extremely bad. If outsiders know that he is a member of our sect, I will feel ashamed.”

The female disciple whispered, “Junior Martial Brother Wu Wu’s temper is just a little strange. His character is quite good, and he has a good reputation.”

The handsome youth laughed disdainfully. “That person’s Qi cloud is just a little better. Relying on luck, in the end, he won’t be able to walk on the path of immortal cultivation for long.”

“Moreover, he’s just a low-grade spirit root, and his aptitude is really dull. Sooner or later, he’ll be left behind by us. This kind of person is not from the same world as us, so we don’t need to care about him. Moreover, Junior Sister, the good impression he left behind was completely a toad trying to eat swan meat. It was intentional.”

“But…”

The female disciple seemed to want to say something else, but the handsome young man had already smiled and changed the topic:

“Junior Sister, didn’t you say last time that you have a treasure to show everyone? Quickly take it out and show it to us.”

The stiff young man looked at the group of people in front of him who were still in high spirits. His eyes were constantly shining.

“Kid, the Senior Sister that you like seems to be chatting with another man.”

A mocking voice sounded in the young man’s mind.

The stiff young man’s eyes were filled with killing intent. He snorted coldly.

“She was just deceived by that person’s appearance. Sooner or later, I will let her know what kind of person is a true genius!”

The old voice continued, “Don’t worry. Just hand over the Ancient Jade that I asked you to plunder and do as I say. After you go back this time, you will be able to easily break through. When that time comes, you will become the Chief Disciple of the sect. When that time comes, you will be able to pick any Junior Sister or Senior Sister.”

Wu Wu’s eyes brightened a little as he asked, “Senior, aren’t you going to anger the Immortals by asking me to ask him for a reward? I’m worried that I’ll be slapped to death.”

“I’ve never heard of anyone daring to ask the upper realm Immortal for a specific treasure during the Myriad Treasure Convention. This is a little crazy.”

The old voice replied, “What Myriad Treasure Convention? It’s just a pretense for the upper realm people to search for resources.”

“There’s no need for you to idolize the Immortals from the upper realm. When I was in the upper realm, I was so powerful that I could easily wipe out those kinds of trash.”

“As long as you listen to me now, you’ll be able to grow to their level sooner or later.”

“When we reach the upper realm, help me collect the materials to rebuild my body. When my cultivation recovers, I’ll satisfy you in whatever you want to do. Even if you want the fairies in the sky, it’s not a problem.”

Although Wu Wu had heard these words thousands of times, every time he heard them, he felt as if he was floating in the air.

What that old monster said was exactly what he desired.

If not for this old monster who unexpectedly failed to possess him, Wu Wu would still be an outer sect disciple in the sect. How could he have the opportunity to participate in the Myriad Treasure Convention today?

Wu Wu’s eyes shone with a blazing light as he said in an excited voice, “Hahahaha, this Myriad Treasure Convention is the beginning of how I, Wu Wu, will shock the Southern Territory. Senior Martial Sister, just wait and be amazed.”

The old man in Wu Wu’s mind was filled with endless disdain.

Wu Wu was ambitious, cunning, and greedy. His aptitude was like mud that could not be lifted up to the wall. His only advantage was his courage. He dared to do whatever he was asked to do.

If Wu Wu did not have an ancient immortal treasure that protected his soul, causing him to fail in possession and have to attach himself to Wu Wu’s body, he would have changed into a better body long ago.

“Hmph, I’ll help you fly to the Immortal World first. After I rebuild my body, the first thing I’ll do after my cultivation is to take revenge for the previous time.”

“At that time, the ancient immortal treasure on your body will also be mine. Hehe.”

…

Yu Hongye curiously sized up everything in the Danxia Holy Land.

The arrangement of the Danxia Holy Land this time was much better than the previous Danxia Holy Land.

The last time she had come to the Danxia Holy Land, she had only stayed in the reception room for a short while before she was called to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Grand Array formation eye. She didn’t have any chance to appreciate the Danxia Holy Land at all.
