Chapter 240 - 247: One word! Mess him up! (Fourth Update)
Everyone stared at Yang Zhen in disbelief, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
“Who… who is this guy, that dares to treat Lin Tianli like this?”
“Doesn’t he know who Lin Tianli is? He’s hailed as the most likely to break through the Tribulation Crossing Period before he turns thirty, a prodigy of heavenly proportions. He was already a powerhouse at the Divine Travel Realm two years ago, now he’s getting insulted by a youngster at the Void Cultivation Stage?”
“Even Young Master Fen and the others wouldn’t dare to offend this madman on a whim. Did you notice that the boy got enraged at the mention of Lin Tianli’s name?”
“Do they have a grudge?”
“Are you joking? If a Void Cultivation Stage kid had a grudge against Lin Tianli, would he still be alive today?”
“Look, this year’s Road of Heaven’s Destiny really stands apart, even Lin Tianli’s expression has changed.”
Young Master Fen looked at Yang Zhen blankly, a playful glint in his eyes, but there was no longer any murderous intent.
Anyone who offended Lin Tianli wouldn’t live for much longer!
In reality, everyone felt a sense of regret. Had Lin Tianli entered the Road of Heaven’s Destiny a step later, Yang Zhen would likely have been decapitated by now.
Among the crowd, the Hongluan Spiritual Girl looked up at Yang Zhen, confusion flickering in her eyes, then she turned her gaze to the Road of Heaven’s Destiny.
After Lin Tianli entered the Road of Heaven’s Destiny, he glanced at Yang Zhen, his complexion changing. It was obvious something unexpected had happened, catching him off guard.
Boom!
The entire Road of Heaven’s Destiny seemed to boil, waves of terrifying True Essence fluctuations surged like the might of heaven, plummeting from midair.
With the blaring sound echoing continuously, under the terrifying explosion of heavenly might, Lin Tianli suddenly halted, his expression turning grave.
Young Master Fen’s expression also turned solemn, as he gazed at Lin Tianli’s silhouette, “As expected, this year’s Road of Heaven’s Destiny is different from previous years. The pressure it’s generating is terrifying. It seems that even with Lin Tianli’s strength, a slip-up could lead to injury.”
The crowd nodded in agreement, staring in shock at Lin Tianli, who was challenging the heavenly might.
Amidst the astonished gazes, the power of the heavenly might in midair was like a tangible force, like various waterfalls pouring down on Lin Tianli. With each heavenly might waterfall that rushed onto Lin Tianli, his body would shudder.
Hongluan Spiritual Girl suddenly said, “Lin Tianli should be able to resist. But what puzzles me is that despite the Flower Spirit Girl’s injury to her spiritual root, she also forcefully withstood thirty-six heavenly might waterfalls, coughing up only a mouthful of blood before entering it. Her injury should not be severe. It seems she has had some fortuitous encounters over these years.”
Yang Zhen frowned at what he heard, and approached Hongluan Spiritual Girl, “Is the Little Miss injured?”
“Little Miss?” The Hongluan Spiritual Girl looked at Yang Zhen in hesitation, then understanding, she nodded, “No worries. Her injury isn’t severe. What’s your relationship with her?”
“No relationship, I was just asking!” Yang Zhen waved his hand, returning to the Scoundrel Cat’s side. They both stared intently at Lin Tianli inside.
“Do you think… Can Lin Tianli hear our conversation?”
The Scoundrel Cat’s eyes lit up, “Want to try?”
At this moment, someone exclaimed, “He’s already endured nine heavenly might waterfalls. Lin Tianli gritted his teeth to withstand it, truly worth the title of prodigy most likely to break through the Tribulation Crossing Period before thirty!”
“I wonder if he can surpass the Flower Spirit Girl’s record of thirty-six heavenly might waterfalls.”
“Based on the current situation, it shouldn’t be difficult!”
Hearing the surrounding comments, Yang Zhen curled his lip, staring unblinkingly at Lin Tianli inside the Road of Heaven’s Destiny.
Boom!
Another heavenly might waterfall fell from mid-air, like a divine punishment. Although it wasn’t as strong as a real divine punishment, Lin Tianli still grunted.
The crowd gasped, Yang Zhen and Scoundrel Cat’s eyes shone, turning to face each other almost simultaneously.
Yang Zhen took a deep breath, if he can hear this jerk grunt, then this jerk should be able to hear what’s being said outside, right?
One word, mess with him!
“Oh my, what kind of pathetic heavenly might waterfall is this? It doesn’t even have proper aim. If it fell a bit to the left, it would hit him right on the head. That would be funny.”
Yang Zhen’s mischievous voice rang out, a strange tone that was incredibly annoying. The surrounding crowd shuddered at the sound.
“Oh man, careful there, pay attention; don’t get hurt now!”
The Rascal Cat cackled, saying, “Kid, ever wonder why there’s no Heavenly Might Waterfall coming from bottom to top? If it hit you right between the legs – oh boy, that would be quite the scene!”
The Rascal Cat’s weirdness was certainly no less than Yang Zhen’s, giving everyone around them the shivers.
In the Road of Heaven’s Destiny, Lin Tianli’s body shivered twice as he reflexively clamped his legs together.
Seeing Lin Tianli’s actions, the surrounding crowd turned beet red and could not help but let out muffled laughter. It was quite the spectacle.
The crowd held back their laughter as they looked at Yang Zhen with peculiar expressions in their eyes.
So low, so low!
You two jackasses are making a racket here. Are you expecting Lin Tianli to concentrate and deal with the Heavenly Might Waterfall? Thank God Lin Tianli wasn’t kicked out on the spot.
Once ejected, he wouldn’t be able to get through this part of the Road of Heaven’s Destiny ever again. He would have no choice but to revert to easier paths.
Lin Tianli was so infuriated his face turned pale green. Turning to look at Yang Zhen, he was so distracted that he was actually hit on the head by a Heavenly Might Waterfall, nearly knocking him dazed.
“Oh shit, watch out!”
Both Yang Zhen and the Rascal Cat covered their mouths, looking at Lin Tianli with faces full of ‘worry’.
“Lin Tianli!” Yang Zhen shouted at the top of his lungs.
“Hangin there!” The Rascal Cat hollered, stretching its neck out.
The cat and the man went back and forth, their yelling getting louder and more intense. The crowd’s expressions were as colorful as a rainbow, the corners of their mouths twitching.
Young Master Fen was utterly flabbergasted. Seeing the tormented expression on Lin Tianli’s face, he stealthily wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Dodging a bullet by nearly provoking such a rascal – that was a close call!
“Lin Tianli!”
“Hang in there!”
The pair were getting louder and more hyped. By the end, Yang Zhen had jumped two feet high, the Rascal Cat three feet out, their voices getting louder with each shout.
“Shut up!” Lin Tianli suddenly roared, a frightening energy exploded from him. Behind him, an enormous three-headed wolf took form.
The three-headed wolf was ferocious and terrifying, one head black, one white, one green. All of them turned to look at Yang Zhen, their True Essence fluctuating wildly.
Boom!
The surrounding space vibrated as a Spirit Soul force poured out in all directions. The practitioners with lower cultivations turned pale immediately, and some even fell over on the spot.
Both Yang Zhen and the Rascal Cat’s faces turned pale. They stood still, staring, making the crowd shiver. Had the cat and the man been intimidated?
In the crowd, the Hongluan Spiritual Girl looked thoughtfully at Yang Zhen, her eyebrows furrowing slightly. She looked at Xuier and was about to say something when a strange voice broke the silence.
“Ever seen a three-headed dog?”
Yang Zhen’s voice wasn’t that loud, but amidst the rumbling of the True Essence and the Heavenly Might Waterfall, it clearly reached everyone’s ears.
The Rascal Cat, dazed, turned its head to look at Yang Zhen and shook its head. “Haven’t seen one, but… it’s so ugly!”
Yang Zhen also shook his head, furrowed his brows, and said in all seriousness, “Actually, it’s not that ugly…”
The crowd paused, not expecting Yang Zhen to say that. Next moment, everyone burst into laughter.
“Truly damn ugly! Geez, how can something in this world be this ugly? They’re staring at me, one, two, three, four, four pairs of eyes staring at me. It’s terrifying!”
Guffaw!
Lin Tianli’s face turned green as he forced down a laugh, spreading a wave of terror among the crowd.
Damn, what if Lin Tianli went mad with rage, and decided to abandon his pursuit of the highest Destiny just to get revenge?
