Chapter 1851: Chapter 1851: I Want to Make Her My Martial Dao Companion!
It is said that the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable once, by chance, mastered a type of spiritual fire. Since the fire was green and bloomed like a lotus, it was called the Green Lotus Spirit Fire.
As for the name Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, it was given due to his eccentric personality, mercurial mood, and sinister, venomous deeds.
As one of the top strongest fighters in the Three Thousand Great World, the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable was arrogant and rampant, always seeking revenge for the slightest grievance. He did everything purely based on his own preferences, caring not for right or wrong.
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable has offended many sect powers in the Three Thousand Great World. The number of strong fighters who died by his hand is a shocking figure, and thus countless individuals seek to take his life.
Yet he, relying on his formidable strength, remained unrestrained, doing as he pleased without fear.
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable’s whereabouts were mysterious, always hidden like the head of a dragon. His sudden appearance here was surprising, yet upon further thought, it made sense.
In the ancient battlefield ruins of the Blood Sea Desert, given the legends of the Immortal Relics, for someone like the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, who was but a step away from ascending to the Immortal Realm as a Heavenly Tribulation Nine-layer powerhouse, it posed a great temptation. How could he possibly miss it?
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable demanded Feng Lingxiao to stop, declaring he wanted the giant axe and Spatial Ring left behind by the skeleton. Although Feng Lingxiao was extremely reluctant, he knew he was no match for the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, thus dared not voice his anger and retreated reluctantly.
The other strong fighters thought this Green Lotus Heretic Venerable was inherently greedy. With him here, any treasures found in these ancient battlefield ruins would end up in his pocket, leaving nothing for the others.
Thinking of this, the various strong fighters felt a sense of shared hostility, and those with good relations secretly allied, deciding that if treasures were discovered, they would band together against the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, ensuring he couldn’t take all the benefits.
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, seeing the fear on the faces of the strong fighters present, and all retreating, knew they dreaded him. He was exceedingly pleased, laughing heartily as he walked up to the skeleton and took the giant axe into his hand.
The giant axe, including the axe handle, was as long as the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable was tall, hence, when he wielded it, he looked quite comical.
But no one dared to laugh, not even showing a hint of mirth. Otherwise, if seen by the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, a slap might come their way, and survival would be difficult.
The giant axe, once in the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable’s hands, surged with energy. When brandished, its sharp axe aura enveloped a hundred-foot radius, sweeping up torrents that flattened everything on the ground.
"Just casually swinging it a few times, and it already has such impressive might and momentum. It seems only in the hands of a Heavenly Tribulation Nine-layer powerhouse, can a Royal Grade superior spiritual artifact fully unleash its power!"
The numerous strong fighters, having retreated a hundred feet away, watched the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, bearing the giant axe with an awe-inspiring presence, and secretly marveled in their hearts.
After obtaining the spiritual artifact giant axe, the strength of Venerable Green Lotus undoubtedly increased a few more degrees. In this Three Thousand Great World, there would hardly be many who could suppress him.
Seeing Venerable Green Lotus having acquired the giant axe and taken the Spatial Ring, and with no more relics left near the skeleton, the strong fighters sighed, shook their heads, and turned away, continuing to search elsewhere for ancient battlefield relics.
Feng Lingxiao, who was originally determined to get that giant axe, was deeply disappointed by the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable’s interference. Yet, he consoled himself that there were hundreds or thousands of skeletons in this ancient battlefield, and there should be plenty of relics. He would just have to search other places.
"Let’s go!"
With this in mind, Feng Lingxiao glanced at Venerable Green Lotus, seeing him examining the giant axe in his hand, and thus called out to several dozen Divine Eagle Sect disciples to turn and leave.
"Eh? Two Innate Spiritual Roots? Stop right there!"
After walking a few steps away, he suddenly heard a light exclamation from behind. It was the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable who had spotted Ye Wumei and Yan Muyu, and with a flash of his figure, he blocked in front of the two women.
Feng Lingxiao’s heart tightened as he turned around, seeing the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable’s eyes roving greedily over Ye Wumei and Yan Muyu. Despite his notorious reputation, witnessing this scene, Feng Lingxiao sighed, knowing this spelled trouble.
"Greetings, Senior Green Lotus."
Although Feng Lingxiao did not wish to provoke the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, he couldn’t stand to see Ye Wumei and Yan Muyu suffer. He hurriedly walked in front of the two women, clasping his hands towards the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable, said, "I am Feng Lingxiao, Divine Eagle Sect Master. These two women are disciples of my sect. May I know why you stopped them, Senior?"
"Divine Eagle Sect?"
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable muttered before glancing at Feng Lingxiao, saying, "Is that old guy Feng Xiaotian still around?"
Feng Xiaotian, Feng Lingxiao’s father, was once a revered Heavenly Tribulation Eight-layer powerhouse in his time.
Hearing the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable referring to his father as "old guy," Feng Lingxiao felt displeased and sternly replied, "My father passed away fifty years ago. Did you happen to know him, Senior?"
"Dead?"
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable let out a chuckle, saying, "I fought a battle with Feng Xiaotian a hundred years ago. We were both Heavenly Tribulation Eight-layer powerhouses at the time, and it ended with no winner. After I advanced to Heavenly Tribulation Nine-layer, I always wanted to battle him again, but he died. Such a pity... such a pity..."
Pausing, he then pointed at Ye Wumei and Yan Muyu, saying, "Are these two girls really your Divine Eagle Sect disciples?"
"Yes."
Under his sharp gaze, Feng Lingxiao mustered his courage and replied.
"You lie!"
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable sternly said, "If they are disciples of your Divine Eagle Sect, why aren’t they wearing your sect’s disciple robes? And why do their Martial Artist auras totally differ from yours? These two are obviously loose cultivators!"
As he spoke, a wave of pressure descended, and Feng Lingxiao felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him, unbearable.
"They... only recently joined the Divine Eagle Sect, thus have yet to change into our sect’s robes or begin cultivating our sect’s techniques."
Feng Lingxiao, being a Heavenly Tribulation Eight-layer powerhouse and the master of a top sect, refused to easily yield in the face of the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable’s oppression and replied firmly.
The Green Lotus Heretic Venerable smirked evilly and pointed at Ye Wumei, saying, "I don’t care whether they are your Divine Eagle Sect disciples or not, hand this older one over to me. I want to make her my Martial Dao companion!"
He, upon seeing Ye Wumei, immediately understood that she was not only a Perfect Body but also possessed the rare Primordial Yin Physique.
For cultivators, dual cultivation with such a woman is equivalent to owning a treasury of cultivation resources, reaping countless benefits.
If not for Yan Muyu being too young to partake in dual cultivation, the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable might have even taken her as well.
Upon hearing that the Green Lotus Heretic Venerable was demanding from Feng Lingxiao to take her as his Martial Dao companion, Ye Wumei was taken aback, her beautiful eyes reflecting fear.
