Legend of the Great Sage

ad done in their lives was defend the stronghold.

However, they were all personal witnesses to the battle of Black Cloud city.
They all knew that Li Qingshan did not destroy the teleportation hall to trap everyone in the city, but to force those lofty direct disciples to put their own skin in the game!

Furthermore, they had witnessed exactly how Li Qingshan had led the soldiers, charging into battle, forcing back wave after wave of demonfolk before fighting the embodiment of a Demon God, being torn to pieces, only resting when he died!

Not only did they see and hear that, they also experienced it themselves.

Because at that moment back then, they were fighting alongside Li Qingshan! 4887

Li Qingshan did not repel the demonfolk army and defend Black Cloud city alone.
Instead, he borrowed their power.

Li Qingshan had told this to them personally after the battle, as they had refused to accept Li Qingshan’s additional reward.

Yesterday, they had been recalled from the army.
They heard countless insults towards Li Qingshan from countless people, calling him “traitor of humanity”, “defector”, and “spy”, but they put up with all of it.
After all, they were only the lowest of disciples.
They did not even count as disciples, only “attendants”.
They did not understand exactly what had happened, nor could they make any decisions for the Myriad sect.

However, as they listened to these people twist the truth and sprout lies, they could no longer put up with it anymore.

Because that battle was their greatest pride!

The eloquent Foundation Establishment cultivator just happened to be complacent from his clever reasoning when fierce killing intent assaulted him from behind.
He stiffened up, and all of his hairs stood on end.
Before he could respond at all, a great force pressed his head down suddenly.

With a bang, his head smashed through the table, shattering the dishes and sending them flying everywhere.
Followed by a thump, he struck the ground heavily, shattering and indenting a good part of it.

The dark-skinned man refused to let up.
His fingers closed together like he was trying to crush his head.
His eyes shone red as his face twisted viciously, frightening the people in the surroundings.

During the battle of Black Cloud city, he had perished three times and was reborn three times.
His blazing battle intent had already earned him the blood of asura.
Coupled with the rewards from the Desireless Heavenly Palace, the Myriad sect, and Li Qingshan, he had already undergone the first heavenly tribulation and established his foundation.

The person in his hand was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but apart from matches between fellow disciples, he had not experienced any true conflict.
Under the intense pressure of murderousness, even his measly combat abilities were gone.
He only wriggled and struggled around instinctively.

“What are you doing? What are you doing!?” His voice had become warped and shrill due to fear, like a pig about to be slaughtered.
He no longer possessed any of his eloquence from before.

“Beating your ass!” The dark-skinned man lifted his fist and gave him a beating, but he did not use much force, only venting his anger.

The restaurant erupted with an uproar, followed by cries, “Stop! Stop fighting! How bold of you! Fighting is forbidden in Myriad city!” Others called out, “Go and find a patrolling officer!”

Meanwhile, his other companions had already gathered over silently before they all knew it.

At this moment, a man in black wielding a spade barged into the restaurant, calling out, “All of you, stop!”

“The patrolling officer is here!”

Patrolling officers belonged to the Department of Law and Punishment.
They were responsible for the peace inside the city, and they all wore black and wielded spades, not for battle, but to stand out.
After all, no one was actually bold enough to break the rules in Myriad city.

The men all looked at one another and thought, So quickly! Only then did they make their way over together and stop the dark-skinned man.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator who had been beaten black and blue dove over to the patrolling officer like he was his dad.
“Sir, they’re trying to beat me to death! It’s all for that damned traitor of humanity, Li Qingshan! Quick, capture them! They’re all spies of the Demon domain!”

The patrolling officer ignored him.
He only gazed at the men and read out a few names, “Dong Dagong, Jiang Xing, Li Xin… senior brother Leng sends his invitations!”

Their hearts sank.
“Senior brother Leng” was one of the direct disciples.
He was Leng Yuan, in charge of the Department of Law and Punishment.
It was the Department of Law and Punishment that had recalled them from the army.

The redness within the eyes of the dark-skinned man called Dong Dagong faded away.
He straightened out his expression and said rigidly, “What’s he inviting us for?”

The patrolling officer furrowed his brows and glanced at him deeply.
“To draw a clear line between you and Li Qingshan!”
