Becoming an Immortal Emperor, All Thanks to the Efforts of My Enemies

Chapter 56



Chapter 62: Not Looking Good

In recent days, Liu Shunyi had grown quite familiar with Ye Yan.

This kid, Ye Yan, had a bit of a blunt personality but was downright straightforward. Plus, he didn’t carry the arrogance of an outer disciple. Most importantly, Ye Yan was a hard worker.

Every morning, after whipping up breakfast, Ye Yan would dive into his training. Even though he was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, he treated Liu Shunyi—who was hiding his Qi Refinement Ninth stage— with plenty of respect.

“Master Liu, I’m off to train. Call me when you finish your breakfast, and I’ll help clean up!” Ye Yan announced.

Liu Shunyi chuckled and shook his head. “No need to fuss over me; I’m not some bigshot. I can clean up myself!”

Ye Yan scratched his head. “Alright!”

With that, he dashed off to train.

Watching Ye Yan disappear, Liu Shunyi suddenly felt that this kind of life wasn’t so bad after all. In fact, he was beginning to seriously consider finding himself a servant. But then it hit him—he had way too many secrets. Having a servant around didn’t quite fit the bill.

Not only that, he needed to find a way to send Ye Yan off to train somewhere else. After all, it didn’t make much sense for an outer disciple to be training at his place day in and day out.

After finishing his meal, Liu Shunyi sought out Ye Yan.

“Your wounds are almost healed now. Always hanging around here isn’t ideal. There must be better training spots in the inner disciple courtyard for you.”

Ye Yan smiled. “I know, but I just want to do something for you!”

Liu Shunyi waved his hand. “With your talent, you could easily make progress in the inner courtyard. If you really want to help me, why not wait until you’re stronger and then look after me?”

Ye Yan thought for a moment. “Okay, then I’ll head back to the inner courtyard!”

Ye Yan turned to leave.

“Wait a moment!” Liu Shunyi quickly called out, stopping him.

Ye Yan looked back, puzzled.

Liu Shunyi handed him a storage bag. “Take this.”

“I can’t accept this!” Ye Yan exclaimed, shocked to see the training resources inside.

Liu Shunyi waved again. “I really don’t need it! I’m a Pill Master here at Cangjian Peak. I can get all the herbs I want.”

Ye Yan was touched. “Alright then, I won’t refuse anymore.”

————

Another half a month passed.

During this time, Liu Shunyi didn’t feel lonely at all. Ye Yan was always sneaking out treasures from the inner disciples.

“Brother Liu, I heard this thing is great for Foundation Establishment!”

“Brother Liu, this spirit beast was raised by the inner disciples, let’s give it a try…”

“Brother Liu…”

Man, this kid Ye Yan really seemed to think of him whenever he found something good. Problem was, Liu Shunyi wasn’t interested in any of it.

Besides, he was about to reach the Golden Core stage. All those Foundation Establishment goodies were useless to him now.

Liu Shunyi finally said, “Ye Yan, you really don’t need to bring me these items anymore. I’m a Pill Master at Cangjian Peak; I can make any pills I need. I’m serious; I’m good!”

Ye Yan smiled. “Even if you don’t need it, it’s good to have. Who knows, you might need something one day! Plus, not all resources from the sect are easy to get. Let’s keep some backup!”

Liu Shunyi was left speechless because Ye Yan made a great point.

Suddenly, a thought struck Liu Shunyi. “Last time you came, you mentioned you were burned, and there were signs of poisoning in your body!”

At the mention of this, Ye Yan’s expression darkened with anger. “There’s a former disciple of our sect named Chen Beiping. I wonder if you know him?”

Chen Beiping? Liu Shunyi’s eyebrows shot up. Wasn’t he dead?

Ye Yan continued, “I saw Chen Beiping on the battlefield, but he wasn’t the Chen Beiping from Qinglian Sect anymore—he was with the Heavenly God Sect!”

Liu Shunyi: “???”

“Chen Beiping… betrayed us?”

Ye Yan shook his head. “Not exactly betrayal. It’s like he’s a completely different person now. He doesn’t remember who he was before but is definitely a disciple of the Heavenly God Sect now.”

“That’s how I ended up burned,” Ye Yan added.

Liu Shunyi fell silent. He remembered how he had removed Chen Beiping’s name from his Great Dao Golden Scroll, convinced he was dead. Even with his rebirth traits, Liu Shunyi thought someone would be gone forever if their name vanished from the Golden Scroll.

But now, it seemed that wasn’t the case.

“Is it possible that if someone doesn’t want to kill you, they could just drop off the Golden Scroll?” he pondered.

Just then, the brush of the Great Dao Golden Scroll quivered and wrote a single word in the void.

“False!”

Liu Shunyi: “!!”

“Then why isn’t Chen Beiping’s name on it anymore?”

The brush shook again. “Sudden!”

Liu Shunyi was speechless. “Then who is the current Chen Beiping?!”

The brush fell silent, leaving Liu Shunyi in deep thought.

Speaking of battlefield events, Liu Shunyi asked, “Can you tell me what the front lines are like right now?”

At this, Ye Yan’s expression paled. “I’m not sure how to put this…”

“But when I left, the situation on the battlefield was dire!”

Liu Shunyi’s heart began to race. “What do you mean?”

Ye Yan sighed. “At first, the joint forces from several sects completely overshadowed the Heavenly God Sect because their two leaders had mysteriously died, leaving the mid-tier fighters of the Heavenly God Sect vulnerable.”

“However, the sects began to underestimate the Heavenly God Sect’s madness.”

Saying this, Ye Yan pulled out a crystal orb. It contained footage of the chaotic battlefield.

What he showed was staggering. Various sects were like heavenly soldiers standing on clouds, looking down on the Heavenly God Sect.

This scene was utterly shocking.

The Heavenly God Sect had seemingly fallen to the brink of destruction.

But everything was part of their plan. They used the blood from the battlefield to activate a formation that consumed blood and killing intent, ultimately awakening a monster.

“Boom…”

The beast towered nearly a thousand meters, rising from the ground and blocking out the entire sky.

The most disgusting part was that its body resembled a centipede, but its countless legs were actually oversized human hands. And the creature’s head was that of a giant baby.

“Hehehe, ahahaha~”

Two completely contrasting laughter filled the air from the monster’s mouth, making it utterly grating.

Just that laugh made countless disciples on the battlefield crumble to dust.

“Hungry, so hungry…”

The monster spoke, its voice a cacophony of many speaking simultaneously.

Then it opened its mouth, unleashing an enormous suction force.

The disciples of the sect alliance were practically wiped out.

The recording ended at that point, leaving Liu Shunyi drenched in cold sweat.
