Chapter 180: Tang Qi: Sect Master, Please Betroth My Master to Me!
“Are you Tang Qi?”
Wu Zhan walked down from above, sizing up the sinister-looking disciple.
“I have met the Sect Master!”
Tang Qi cupped his fists in greeting but did not kneel, which drew disapproving looks from many elders.
“Impertinent! You do not bow before the Sect Master; do you still understand etiquette?”
“There is no need for that. This seat is usually lenient toward outstanding disciples!”
“Thank you, Sect Master!”
Tang Qi looked around, his expression subtly changing.
“Has the Jade Purity Sect encountered a calamity?”
Upon hearing this, the elders revealed awkward expressions.
It was difficult to swallow the fact that a young man was slapping their faces repeatedly.
In the end, Mo Liushu and the others learned the ins and outs of the situation.
“Zhou Tong… I didn’t expect his desire for revenge to be so strong…”
Mo Liushu’s expression was complex. Ever since being forced by the Heavenly Dao to repent for her sins, she could no longer maintain a superior attitude toward Zhou Tong.
The daily torture of the five punishments reminded her that she owed Zhou Tong greatly and must harbor guilt toward him.
However, it is hard to change one’s nature, as the saying goes.
Mo Liushu felt that if Zhou Tong hadn’t abandoned her, she wouldn’t have suffered such calamities.
Moreover, Zhou Tong’s disturbance of the Jade Purity Sect had exposed her to public criticism, further inciting her discontent.
At this moment, Tang Qi spoke up.
“Sect Master, that Zhou Tong is reckless and already has a death wish. As an unworthy disciple, I am willing to take his head and hang it above our sect to uphold our prestige!”
These words drew countless gazes.
“Can you do it?”
“To me, it is easy!”
Tang Qi had become completely arrogant. Since recognizing the demons as his father and mastering the complete Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Skill, he could not only devour others’ cultivation but also strip parts of their bodies and install them on himself.
Now he had transformed into a complete man, and a man’s man at that!
“You brat, being overly arrogant is not a good thing. How will you prove you can surpass him?”
Wu Zhan questioned, but his eyes were filled with anticipation. He hoped Tang Qi could crush Zhou Tong and bring greater fortune to the sect.
“Sect Master, you have calamities upon you, right?”
Tang Qi’s eyes sparkled as if he could see through everything.
“How do you know?”
“This is a secret of the disciple. Not only do I know, but I can also help you resolve the calamity!”
At these words, everyone displayed doubtful expressions.
“This is impossible. The calamities of entering the Sage realm are not trifling matters. What could you, a practitioner of the Life-Death Realm, do to withstand them?”
“If it is true or not, testing it will prove everything!”
Tang Qi flashed an evil smile, knowing full well that it was indeed true.
As long as he used the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Skill to devour the opponent’s source, all problems would be easily resolved.
Because calamities are the existence that annihilates the source; if the source is gone, the calamities will naturally disappear.
However, if this method of treatment were made public, most people would not accept it.
Although a death would end the affliction, who would be willing to die?
“Sect Master, be careful. This matter may be a deception.”
Some elders warned.
“What kind of deception could there be? I am at the peak of Semi-Sage; I am just one step away from becoming a Sage! What is there to fear? Come, boy!”
Once these words were spoken, Tang Qi revealed a rich smile.
“Sect Master, rest assured, with my intervention, you are guaranteed safety.”
Under everyone’s watch, Tang Qi and Wu Zhan sat down on the ground, placing their hands on Wu Zhan’s back.
“Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Skill!”
He silently chanted in his heart, and in an instant, the voice of the Devil King echoed in his mind.
“Good, good, good… This time, I unexpectedly found a peak Semi-Sage prey, such exquisite delicacy. Let this king assist you!”
As the words fell, the demonic skill began to operate wildly, pulling out the source power from Wu Zhan’s body in a brutal manner.
Not only that, the Devil King’s soul emitted a strange hypnotic technique, numbing Wu Zhan, making him unaware of the fact that his body was being emptied.
“This is amazing… I feel like I’m about to break through!”
Tang Qi’s eyes shone brightly as he gazed hungrily at the elders in the sect, almost drooling.
These were all his prey; from this moment on, he had already resolved to refine the Jade Purity Sect.
“Brat, this is not the best part; your Master is the real delicacy!”
As the heavenly demon’s voice fell, Tang Qi’s body shook.
“Foster father… what do you mean by that?”
“Do you not see? That woman has a natural divine body and a deep fortune. If she does not act recklessly, she has the potential to become an emperor in the future!”
“If you can absorb her source and transform her into a demonic puppet, then cultivate with her using the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Skill, you will certainly maximize her potential and help you ascend to the heavens!”
Upon hearing this, Tang Qi’s eyes turned red as he greedily looked at the despairing Mo Liushu below.
This woman was simply too beautiful, always igniting his brutal desires, making him wish to turn her into a slave and ravage her fiercely!
“It’s settled then. I can’t wait!”
Tang Qi sneered fiercely, and in a short while, he absorbed a small portion of Wu Zhan’s source!
Wu Zhan, on the other hand, wore an expression of extreme enjoyment.
“Wonderful! I can clearly feel the calamity decreasing. Little brat, you have made a great contribution!”
“You flatter me, Sect Master.”
Tang Qi pretended to be humble as he put away the demonic power and slowly said, “After three more treatments, your calamities will completely disappear!”
“Hahaha…”
Wu Zhan could not help but burst into laughter, feeling as though the gloom had lifted. He had finally waited for his turn to thrive!
“This talent is ten times stronger than Zhou Tong. As the saying goes, ‘No destruction, no establishment.’ This signifies that our sect will prosper greatly!”
Before his laughter had ceased, he turned to Tang Qi and said, “You have made such a great contribution. The sect must reward you. Speak, what do you want?”
Upon hearing this, Tang Qi was overjoyed, his eyes turning toward Mo Liushu.
He saw Mo Liushu’s face was incredibly pale, her body trembling slightly, seemingly enduring the torment of torture.
“Not good, Master’s calamities have erupted again!”
Xia Hongxiu exclaimed, yet she could not suppress the excitement in her mouth.
This woman was finally reaching her limit. She could soon absorb the other’s fortune.
“Ah, ah, ah…”
Under everyone’s gaze, Mo Liushu collapsed to the ground, clutching her head, her body curling up in convulsions, cold sweat instantly soaking her entire body, outlining her delicate figure in a way that was almost indecent.
“Let her go, let me handle it!”
Tang Qi rushed forward impatiently, using the same method to begin absorbing Mo Liushu’s source, alleviating her suffering.
“Xiao Qi, thank you, you are truly a good disciple to me!”
“Liushu… this is what I should do!”
At these words, Mo Liushu trembled all over, seemingly in disbelief.
“What did you call me?”
Tang Qi did not answer her but looked at Wu Zhan.
“Reporting to the Sect Master, this disciple dares to request that you betroth my Master to me!”
