"Aiya, son-in-law, why are you fighting? You're not a monster. It's not a big deal to let him shine on you. Even if you can't stand it, just chase him out. Why do you have to do it?”Grand Duke Gao was shocked and couldn't help but blame Zhu Tian.
Zhu Tian turned his head and said respectfully,"Lord Taishan, please don't blame me. I was also too angry, so I acted impulsively." However, Lord Tai Shan need not worry. This Demonic Priest is just a liar. Otherwise, how could he be defeated by my son-in-law? There must be something strange about his mirror. Perhaps it was some kind of camouflage. If Lord Tai Shan was bewitched by him again, I'm afraid that my son-in-law would not be able to explain it clearly even if his whole body was covered in blood.”
Old Grand Duke Gao was speechless and embarrassed.
The Taoist priest did not care about the blood in his mouth and cursed loudly,"Bullshit! Nonsense! I've already formed my Golden Core, how can I be a liar? But you, this demon, actually took advantage of this Zhenren's unguarded and suddenly launched a sneak attack. Clearly, you were afraid that the Demon Revealing Mirror would reveal your true body! You must be a monster!"
Zhu Tian was furious." You Demonic Priest, you still want to deceive the masses at this time!" If I were a demon, I would have eaten you up long ago, skin and bones. Why would I waste my breath on you?”
The Taoist priest rolled his eyes and said in realization," So you're afraid that this muddle-headed old man knows your identity…Haha, demon, return the mirror to me, or I'll self-destruct my Golden Core. Even if I can't kill you, you can forget about hiding your identity…"
Zhu Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Could it be that this Daoist had become stupid from cultivating? At this point, he still wanted to threaten him. He really did not know what death was!
He smiled slightly and quietly shot out a stream of clear air to restrict the Daoist priest's Golden Core True Essence. "The Demonic Priest is spouting nonsense again. I am a human, so why should I hide my identity?" I don't believe you have a golden core. Otherwise, how could you be defeated by me? Hehe, if you really have a Golden Core, you don't have to self-destruct. As long as you show it to me, I'll be at your disposal!”
The young Taoist priest was originally afraid that if he revealed his golden core, the demon might fly into a rage out of humiliation and kill him when he saw that the matter was exposed, so he provoked him with words. However, he had no other choice. He wanted to spit out the golden core, but his body suddenly became empty. His true essence and magic power had long disappeared. Even the golden core seemed to have disappeared without a trace. His expression changed drastically, filled with regret!
He thought that it was just a small demon, but with his Golden Core cultivation, wouldn't it be easy to capture it? Who knew that he would run into an iron plate and be beaten half to death. However, that was fine. He had been so anxious that he had been muddled. He had thought that this demon would not dare to kill him in order to hide his identity! If he threatened to use the self-destruction of his Golden Core, he would definitely be able to retrieve the Demon Revealing Mirror and escape. Unexpectedly, the demon used some unknown method to actually seal his true essence magic power. If he had known this would happen, he might as well have revealed his golden core from the beginning. He would rather split up than be slaughtered by others!
The Taoist priest was speechless and could not speak. Zhu Tian laughed and turned to Old Duke Gao."Lord Tai Shan, what do you think? I told you he was a liar, right? A Golden Core self-destructing…Haha, what a joke.”
After being insulted by Zhu Tian, Old Duke Gao had long wanted to find a way to ease the tension between them. He saw that the Taoist priest was boasting, but in the end, he did not say anything. He must be a liar, so how could he still be willing to speak up for him? He quickly nodded and said,"You're indeed a liar. Wise son-in-law!" This old man will go and call for people to bring this charlatan to justice!”
Zhu Tian still wanted to know why the Taoist priest had the Demon Revealing Mirror, a treasure of the Heavenly Palace. Of course, he would not send him to the government. Hearing this, he quickly said,"Lord Taishan, please wait. Although this fellow is a liar, he has already been injured by me. If he is sent to the government, he will definitely be thrown into prison. However, with his injuries, he would probably die in a few days. As the saying goes, the heavens love life, and my son-in-law has not suffered any harm. If I harm a life because of this, how can my son-in-law bear it? So forget it. When I throw this liar out of the manor, I'll let him fend for himself!”
Old Duke Gao stroked his beard and smiled, praising,"Virtuous son-in-law, this huckster insulted you as a demon, but you repaid him with kindness and let him live. Good! Good! This old man really didn't choose the wrong son-in-law, Cuilan is blessed…"
After hearing Zhu Tian's words, how could the Daoist not know that his so-called virtue of cherishing life was all bullshit? He must have wanted to drag her to a place where no one was around to eat her! Just as he was about to curse and reveal his true face, he heard Old Grand Duke Gao's words. Immediately, his eyes rolled back and his throat gurgled. Then, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted from anger.
Zhu Tian smiled to himself and carried the Taoist priest to the outside of the manor. After finding a place with no one around, he flicked his finger on the top of the Taoist priest's head and woke him up.
"Speak! How did the Demon Revealing Mirror fall into your hands?”
The Taoist priest's small eyes rolled around and he said,"What do you want? I'm the disciple of the Sect Master of Green Mountain's Cuiwei Monastery. If you dare…"
Zhu Tian sneered and interrupted him fiercely," Little bastard, I don't care whose disciple you are. Are you going to tell me or not? Forget it, why should I ask you? I'll capture your soul and use the soul refining technique. What else can't I ask?”
After saying that, Zhu Tian was about to attack, but the Daoist was scared out of his wits. He had heard of the soul refining technique before. It was an extremely vicious technique. Once he used it, he would even tell them everything about him peeing on the brick bed when he was young. Even if the other party was merciful and let his soul reincarnate, he would become demented forever.
"Grandpa, please spare me! " I'll say anything, I'll say anything…" Seeing Zhu Tian being so fierce, the Taoist priest didn't dare to beat around the bush. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed like he was pounding garlic. He no longer had the bearing of a master. "This Demon Revealing Mirror is the treasure of my Cuiwei Monastery. A few years ago, when I went down the mountain to travel, Master gave this Demon Revealing Mirror to me so that I could use this treasure to carry out my path while also investigating if there was anything unusual in the surroundings.”
"Investigate the surroundings?" Hearing this, Zhu Tian's heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if something was about to happen. "Who is your master?" he asked in a deep voice. What are you looking for?"
The Taoist priest quickly replied," My master's name is Li Shiyuan. He's the head of Cuiwei Monastery. He's a master of good fortune and has long become an Earth Immortal." As for what was abnormal…I don't know.”
The Daoist priest was trying his best to exaggerate his master's strength, hoping that the demon in front of him would let him off because of this. However, seeing that Zhu Tian was not moved at all and was even a little angry, he panicked and hurriedly added,""I really don't know. My master didn't elaborate and didn't say clearly what the abnormality was. This lowly one had even asked, but Master did not say anything. He only told me to pay attention on the way.”
"Oh? Since that's the case…then there's no point in keeping you!”Before he could finish his sentence, a faint blood-red light emerged from Zhu Tian's hand and gently swept across the Daoist priest's body.
"Rip!"
The Daoist priest was instantly cut in half, but he was not dead yet. He looked at his two halves in horror, then at the expressionless Zhu Tian. He wanted to say something, but his lips trembled twice and he fell silent. Then, the two halves of his body quickly shriveled up and turned into two puddles of pus and blood. Then, they dried up and turned into scabs.
A wisp of black smoke gradually rose and hovered above the two puddles of pus and blood for a while before it tried to fly away. However, he was wrapped by a bloody light and sucked into an unknown space. Another gust of wind came out of nowhere, and the dried pus and blood turned into powder, drifting with the wind and disappearing without a trace.
" Why do you have to do this..." A long sigh filled with sorrow and compassion echoed in the world for a long time.
