Chapter 51: Wrath

The battle between Tianyi and Roving Dragon was like a clash of divinities for the spectators. Any stray strike from them could cause the land below them to fracture and death to anyone unlucky to be struck.

With such a cataclysmic battle overhead, no one was able to focus on Bai Tiezi. Everyone was far too busy concerned over their own lives. When the deities battle, the mortals are the first to suffer.

Bai Tiezi watched the battle overhead with passionate eyes. He had known that the senior who taught him was not simple, but he only truly realized it when he saw the battle between the senior and the Bliss Earth Sect Master.

Compared to Tianyi, who mysteriously appeared, Bai Tiezi would be more familiar with Roving Dragon, the legendary sect master of the Bliss Earth Sect. The current generation had heard tales of how he single-handedly defeated the four sects and created the current balance of power on Tianwei Continent.

Roving Dragon was a legend amongst the younger generation. Despite his tyrannic nature, many aspiring cultivators wanted to emulate him. They hoped to replicate his legendary feat of cultivating from a no-name mortal to the overlord of the land.

Bai Tiezi was no different. He had placed Roving Dragon as his role model and goal. That all changed when his beloved was chosen to be Roving Dragon's woman, though. All admiration turned into grievance and wrath, but he was not blinded by it.

Seeing as the members of the Bliss Earth Sect were no longer paying attention, he moved towards Feng'er. The members of the Bliss Earth Sect who noticed wanted to block him, but they were only able to fight against Bai Tiezi by teaming up. So in their disorganized state, they were not Bai Tiezi's match at all.

"Feng'er!"

"Big Brother Tie!"

Bai Tiezi froze for a moment when he felt an ominous feeling above; he looked up to see a stray golden qi making its way towards the carriage where the girls were located. He gritted his teeth and leaped into the air with a spear thrust that resembled a flood dragon flying out of the sea.

Unwavering Dragon Spear Art performed best when there was a stable foothold for the user to perform on. Bai Tiezi's action was equivalent to weakening himself, but he had no choice. If he deflected the attack, he had a chance at survival, but if the attack landed on the carriage, then the girls inside would no doubt all die.

His spear struck the fist-shaped golden qi. The two opposing forces briefly contested for a moment before the fist dissolved under the force of the spear, but the formless golden qi continued to blast forward and struck Bai Tiezi's body. Blood spurted out of Bai Tiezi's mouth as he was launched backward.

Despite his paling face, he stubbornly grasped the spear in his hand, even as he crashed and skidded across the ground. The surrounding cultivators naturally noticed the commotion, and they all gathered their focus at where Bai Tiezi crashed.

Under the upturned soil and rocks, a hand burst out. Bai Tiezi climbed out from the hole. His skin was deathly pale, a trail of blood was leaking from the corner of his lips, his hair was in disarray, and his clothes had long become rags, but his eyes were incredibly sharp to the point that none of the Bliss Earth Sect members dared to meet them.

Slowly Bai Tiezi made his way towards the carriage. Each step was like crossing a river. His body was shaking to the point that he had to use his spear as a crutch, but no one dared to block his way. It was as if whoever blocked his path would receive a death sentence.

Feng'er stood there on the carriage with teary eyes as she saw the tragic appearance of Bai Tiezi. Her hands holding the carriage doors were white from her grip.

"Feng'er stand back." Bai Tiezi said. The guards around the carriage had already retreated into the distance, afraid to be struck down by this death god. He held the spear in two hands, and with a short thrust, the carriage door was blasted apart.

Feng'er jumped down from the carriage and into Bai Tiezi's chest with tears streaming down her face. "Big Brother Tie, we are finally back together again."

"Yes," Bai Tiezi released a tranquil smile that he had worn for months. "Yes, we are."

At this moment, seeing as Bai Tiezi had lowered his guard, a foundation establishment disciple began to cast a spell against Bai Tiezi's defenseless back.

Rage colored Bai Tiezi's face as he felt the change of qi in the air, and he furiously swirled around to see the determined look on the Bliss Earth Sect member, but before any of them could do anything, an unknown force smashed the Bliss Earth Sect member into a meat paste.

Bai Tiezi and the crowd around them stood there stunned and staring at whatever remained of him.

"Junior, we meet again."

Bai Tiezi looked up to see a youth in black brocade robes with his hands clasped behind his back. An air of leisure hung on that youth while his hair flowed in the wind, extremely picturesque. He and the surrounding cultivators were struck by the youth's exquisite features as if they were sculpted by immortal hands. Especially those eyes of his, just one look could steal someone's soul.

Bai Tiezi forced himself out of his stupor as he quickly asked. "Senior, what about the Bliss Earth Sect Master?"

Tianyi gave a slight smile as he pointed his thumb behind him. Bai Tiezi and the people in the surroundings looked at where Tianyi pointed at and sucked in a cold breath. Lying on the ground was Roving Dragon's bifurcated body.

There was stunned silence as the members of the Bliss Earth Sect around Bai Tiezi began to flee, following the actions of their fellow sect members who had been paying attention to the battle.

Roving Dragon was the Bless Earth Sect's greatest pillar. Without him, the Bless Earth Sect would not have risen to its current position. With him on the battlefield, their morale would be raised to its limit, but if Roving Dragon perished before the members' very eyes, then the morale would drop to rock bottom.

Bai Tiezi broke out of his second stupor, an extremely complicated feeling was reflected in his eyes. He cupped his hands at Tianyi. "Many thanks for Senior's aid."

Tianyi waved his hand without care. "Don't worry about it. I was just passing through. I originally was just going to watch, but who knew that Roving Dragon would seek death for himself?"

He then glanced at Feng'er, who was still hugging Bai Tiezi. "Why don't the two of you follow me? I still have something to pass onto you as thanks."

"Thanks?" Bai Tiezi questioned. "There is no need. Senior has helped enough. I could never repay the kindness you showed me."

Tianyi shook his head. "No, the token you gave me solved a major problem for me. I have to repay you. Otherwise, I would not feel at ease."

Seeing Bai Tiezi still hesitate, Tianyi added. "How about this? You can repay me in the future if you leave the island and ever reach the Immortal Realm."

"Immortal Realm?" Such a thought had occurred to Bai Tiezi, but it was more like a fleeting dream. Bai Tiezi was an orphan who by chance had met Feng'er, and then on his dream was to marry her and live a peaceful life. "Senior, I'm just an average person."

"The way I see it, you have the fortune to become an immortal," Tianyi said. "Besides, only when you reach the Immortal Realm will you be able to aid me."

After saying those words, an immortal boat appeared in the air with a flip of his hand. Bai Tiezi and Feng'er both looked at it with awe. Tianyi waved his hand, and the two of them were pulled onto the deck of the immortal boat.

"Senior, dare I ask what realm you have reached?" Bai Tiezi asked after marveling at the boat for a while. This senior was extremely mysterious, and his background even more so.

"I'm only in the Core Formation Realm." Tianyi lightly said.

Bai Tiezi bitterly smiled. How many cultivators dreamed of reaching the Core Formation realm in Tianwei Continent, but in Tianyi's mouth, it was something that could easily be achieved. But thinking about how Tianyi slew Roving Dragon, such an attitude seemed acceptable.

"Don't overthink it. If I had actually lost, then I would have wasted every advantage I had. I would have been trash not worthy of cultivation. Although Roving Dragon seemed impressive to you guys, aside from his martial cultivation and that golden qi armor of his, all his techniques were subpar." Tianyi gave the two a sideways glance as he brought out a pill in his hand. "Let me put it this way, Tianwei Continent is a frog, and the seas surrounding it are a well. Do you understand?"

Bai Tiezi smiled bitterly. What else could he say? From Tianyi's eyes, they indeed were incredibly weak. He opened his mouth to speak, but when he did so, Tianyi threw a pill in his mouth, and it soon entered his throat and into his stomach.

"Big Brother Tie!" Feng'er cried out in worry, but Bai Tiezi held out his hand to stop her. He could feel the potent vitality flow out from within the pill and heal all the injuries that he had accumulated. Even his old injuries from before were healed.

Bai Tiezi kneeled in gratitude. "Many thanks for Senior's aid."

"Get up, since I've already decided to help you. I will thoroughly finish what I started." Tianyi then glanced at Feng'er and threw a crystal orb at her. Although she was slightly shocked, she was still a cultivator in the Qi Gathering Realm, and she caught the crystal orb.

The moment she caught the crystal orb, two lights shone within. One was a small green light, but the other was a brighter blue light that nearly consumed the green light. Upon seeing this, Tianyi's eyes narrowed. "As I thought."

"Senior?" Bai Tiezi said, confusion evident. But Tianyi just waved his concern away as he stored the crystal ball away. He then looked outside the immortal boat. Bai Tiezi also followed his eyes, and his pupils shrunk. Although the view was different, there was no way he didn't recognize the Bliss Earth Sect.

"Stay here," Tianyi said as he stepped off the boat.

Upon walking off, three acupoint opening masters flew up and greeted Tianyi. "This friend, for what reason have you visited our sect?"

Although they didn't know who Tianyi was, just the fact that he possessed an immortal boat made him a major figure that wasn't easy to deal with. Just moments before, they had received news of a battle not far away requiring their sect master's aid.

Tianyi ignored them, and his eyes focused on a certain mountain within the Bliss Earth Sect. Tianyi stretched his hand out and made a grabbing motion. A black cloud with numerous motes of light in the shape of a hand appeared over the mountain.

The hand grabbed the mountain and directly uprooted it. Tianyi's pupil shrunk as his sharp eyes caught the numerous female corpses buried under the soil.

"You are offending the Bliss Earth Sect!"

"Hmpf, if you stop now, we can still talk it over. But once the sect master returned...hmph!"

The three acupoint opening masters were shocked by Tianyi's power technique, ut they had confidence in their sect master that he would be able to deal with this intruder.

Tianyi did not look as he spoke again. "You knew what your sect master was doing to the girls that were brought over, right?"

These words floated by the three's ear, but the killing intent hidden within could not be concealed at all. Two of the three acupoint opening masters' faces changed, while the last one didn't change at all.

Tianyi's expression darkened. Although the last one didn't have a change in his expression, Tianyi could sense his heartbeat quicken exponentially at his question.

Under the eyes of the three, the mountain that was the center of their Pill Creation Hall was crushed into oblivion by the giant hand. The three of them had a pained expression as if their flesh had been torn from their body. For the development of a sect, the necessity of pills was not low.

Now, in less than a time than five minutes, their Pill Creation Hall had been destroyed, but they didn't have time to worry about the destruction of it anymore as all three of them felt space compress around them. With each passing moment, the compression increased, they wanted to scream, but it felt as if the words in their mouth would not come out no matter what they did.

Slowly they experience the excruciating pain of being crushed alive. Tianyi let their corpse fall into the ground, but the anger in his heart hadn't been sated at all. He could still sense several master-level experts in the Bliss Earth Sect, and his eyes became colder.

"Since you enjoyed the glory of the Bliss Earth Sect for so long, you should also experience their ruin."

Several more hand-shaped black clouds appeared, and all of them uprooted the crucial structures and mountains and crushed them into dust.

Some members may not know what Roving Dragon was doing to the girls being brought over from outside the sect, but anyone with half a brain could guess a few points. Even if they didn't know, so what?

Ignorance was not innocence.

From this day onward, although the Bliss Earth Sect still existed, their foundation and top echelons were erased. They were destined to fall in from heaven to hell and be overtaken by other sects, just like the four sects that they had overthrown.
