Chapter 1601 - 1601 Are You Worthy of Forgiveness?
1601 Are You Worthy of Forgiveness?
The sudden explosion was filled with divine might that made people want to kneel and kowtow from the depths of their souls.
Dongshen Jie immediately recognized the owner of the voice.
That was…
Sheng Xiao?
Back then, during the intercontinental final, Dongshen Jie and his disciple, Dongshen Hanyu, wanted to cut off Donor’s wings for their own use. This completely angered Sheng Xiao. In order to save Donor, Sheng Xiao risked his identity being exposed and summoned the souls of nine Sky Dragons to help him fight.
In public, Sheng Xiao severely injured Dongshen Jie, who was known as the number one expert in the Central Continent, and escaped with his Grand Master cultivation.
This matter was the greatest humiliation in Dongshen Jie’s life.
Because of this, Dongshen Jie had become a topic of discussion in the cultivation world of the Cang Lang Continent over the years. No matter where he went, someone would deliberately mention the young man called Sheng Xiao in front of him.
He heard that Sheng Xiao went to the Demon Beast Continent and caused a ruckus at the Soul Formation Mountain. He had already become one with the last crown prince of the Dragon Race, Yu Aofeng.
Later on, he heard from them that Prime Emperor Divine Miracle of the inner academy of Cang Lang had created a Divine Creation Plan and sent Sheng Xiao to a place called the Divine Gathering Shield to enter seclusion. He heard that there were 999 illusion tests in the Divine Gathering Shield and it was extremely dangerous. If Sheng Xiao could successfully break through, he would obtain the divine power of the ancient divine artifact and have a chance to become a Divine Master.
The more things Dongshen Jie heard about Sheng Xiao, the more afraid he became.
He hoped that Sheng Xiao would die in the Divine Gathering Shield.
However, the announcement of the mysterious person welcoming the Sky Dragon Divine Master back to the three thousand worlds still seemed to be ringing in his ears. Dongshen Jie, who had deceived himself for a few years, had no choice but to face reality—
Sheng Xiao, who had ascended from a small world, was so powerful that he had to kneel down and look up to him.
“It’s… it’s the Sky Dragon Divine Master.”
Behind Dongshen Jie, the instructors knelt down when they saw the appearance of the black dragon in the sky and the man standing on the dragon’s head with his arms crossed. “Welcome, Sky Dragon Divine Master!”
Dongshen Jie slowly raised his head. When he saw the man in a black coat on the dragon, his legs went weak and his knees hit the ground.
This fiend had really returned and became a Divine Master!
As if he was kneeling to a god, Dongshen Jie lowered his head to Sheng Xiao piously. “Welcome, Sky Dragon Divine Master.”
At this moment, Dongshen Jie felt very apprehensive.
Sheng Xiao was the source of his anxiety.
Whether he wanted to cook him until he was 30% cooked, 50% cooked, 80% cooked, or roast him into charcoal and dust before turning him into fertilizer in the air depended on Sheng Xiao’s mood and preferences.
However, Dongshen Jie’s realization was too late.
Even if he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, he would not be able to get Sheng Xiao’s forgiveness.
As he had expected, Sheng Xiao did not intend to let him off.
A terrifying divine power was released from Sheng Xiao’s body. That power instantly surrounded the entire Myriad Kingdom Island and suppressed all the cultivators on the island. When this aura spread, Dongshen Jie, who was a Prime Master, lost control of his body in less than three seconds.
Dongshen Jie fell to the ground. In the next second, a pair of black combat boots appeared in his line of sight.
Dongshen Jie trembled when he felt Sheng Xiao approaching.
An invisible but powerful force raised Dongshen Jie’s face and forced him to raise his head to make eye contact with the Divine Master. “Dongshen Jie, long time no see. How have you been?”
How have you been…
Today was probably the day he would die.
Dongshen Jie’s eyes were trembling and he had a mental breakdown on the spot. Before Sheng Xiao could attack him, he started begging for mercy. “Lord Sky Dragon Divine Master, don’t kill me. I was foolish to bully you back then. I’ll kowtow and apologize to you!”
Then, Dongshen Jie kowtowed to Sheng Xiao.
After kowtowing five to six times, Sheng Xiao remained indifferent and only stared at him condescendingly.
Dongshen Jie’s heart skipped a beat.
Dongshen Jie did not want to die.
Under the pressure of the divine might, he lowered his head with difficulty.
Dongshen Jie kissed the back of Sheng Xiao’s shoes as he begged in a low self-esteem, “Lord Sky Dragon, I was blind back then. Please let me off. I’m willing to cut off my wings and give them to you. You can use them as firewood or decorations. Please spare my life!”
The former Palace Master of the East God Palace was no longer mighty and domineering as he was in the past.
He forsook all of his previous arrogance.
Sheng Xiao looked at Dongshen Jie with an impassive expression.
Logically speaking, when he saw Dongshen Jie begging for his forgiveness, he should have felt happy.
However, Sheng Xiao remained calm. He suddenly realized that when a person became stronger and looked back at their enemies that were once unattainable and invincible in the past, he would not feel relieved. He only felt amused.
“Dongshen Jie.” Sheng Xiao took a step back and said meaningfully, “Do you know that you are a god in the hearts of all the disciples of the East God Palace? By kneeling, you’re crushing the pride of the East God Palace.”
Dongshen Jie froze.
“Back then, I took revenge for my friend on the spot. Why do you have to trouble yourself?”
Upon hearing this, Dongshen Jie was delighted.
Afraid that Sheng Xiao was toying with him, she raised her head carefully and looked up at him as she asked in a low voice, “Lord Sky Dragon, are you really willing to forgive me for my mistake?”
“Forgive you?” Sheng Xiao took a step back and removed his toes from Dongshen Jie’s grasp.
He looked down at Dongshen Jie and said with a sneer, “Are you worthy?”
This was really the most insulting answer.
However, Dongshen Jie believed that Sheng Xiao would not cause trouble for him anymore. At least, he would not kill him, so he heaved a sigh of relief.
However, just as he heaved a sigh of relief, he heard Sheng Xiao ask, “You haven’t answered me yet. What did my two friends do to get expelled from the training camp?”
Dongshen Jie and the others kneeling behind him didn’t dare to make a sound.
Sheng Xiao turned around and looked at Zhan Wuya, who was standing behind him.
Zhan Wuya had been very excited ever since he saw Sheng Xiao, but his heart ached when he saw Sheng Xiao looking at him and Ye Qingyang.
A tiger that fell from grace would be bullied by a dog.
Ever since that battle, the War God Clan had completely fallen from grace. Zhan Wuya had also lost his glamour. The more dazzling Zhan Wuya was in the past, the more people hated him now.
In the past two years, Ye Qingyang was not the only one who had been schemed against.
