I really dislike flattery?
"Gu Zhenren" couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth at these words.
This was the most insincere sentence he had heard in nearly a thousand years.
Although "The Abyss" was the "stronghold of demonic cultivators,"
they, as demonic cultivators, also had spiritual pursuits.
So, in the past, "The Abyss" had a "ceremonial band."
The leaders of "The Abyss," in their spare time, could sing songs, listen to music, and live carefree lives!
But ever since "The Bald Guy" became the "Great Leader of The Abyss," he felt that the "ceremonial band" was decadent music, not fitting "The Abyss's" "iron-blooded prestige."
Thus, "The Bald Guy" disbanded the "ceremonial band"!
The rest dared not complain.
Might makes right.
As time passed, "The Bald Guy" himself slowly began to feel that something was wrong.
Spiritual life was too barren!
"The Abyss" had no entertainment, and everyone, besides cultivation, just cultivated, which was very dull.
"The Bald Guy" had a flash of inspiration and instructed his subordinate "demonic cultivators" to form a groundbreaking "Praise Squad."
The "Praise Squad" couldn't sing or dance; they had only one "talent."
To praise you, to praise you wildly!
"Great Leader Ye shines through the ages, you are incredibly powerful!"
"If Heaven did not give birth to Great Leader Ye, the demonic path would be eternal night!"
…
They praised in the most disgusting way possible!
They would not stop until you were "blushing, sweating, and flustered!"
Ordinary "demonic cultivators" couldn't stand it for half an hour!
But "The Bald Guy" would receive the "Praise Squad's" service for at least three days and three nights without rest!
With such a disposition, he actually dared to say he disliked flattery. If "Gu Zhenren" weren't a professional, he would have burst out laughing.
"The Bald Guy" didn't notice the anomaly in "Gu Zhenren's" expression. He asked with a chuckle.
"What happened to Qi Ye on the surface? Did he have a lightning-fast journey, utterly dominating the genius cultivators of the surface…"
Such a thing was inevitable!
In "The Bald Guy's" mind, Ye Qi Ye's performance on the "surface" was bound to be incredibly dominant, crushing "surface geniuses" everywhere!
Showing off to the extreme!
Heh heh heh…
Thinking of those "exciting" scenes, "The Bald Guy" couldn't help but feel thrilled!
Ye Qi Ye is awesome!
He is indeed the "inheritor" I chose!
Oh yeah!
"Gu Zhenren's" expression turned somewhat strange.
Uh…
He hesitated for a moment and said.
"Well, Great Leader, perhaps a small accident occurred. According to the information transmitted from the Mother-Child Gu, Young Master Qi Ye should have used the Demonic Heart Seed Dao divine ability…"
"Mother-Child Dual Gu!"
This was a "Gu worm" meticulously cultivated by "Gu Zhenren"!
These "Gu worms" were born as a pair, one mother and one child.
The mother worm remained by "Gu Zhenren's" side, responsible for receiving messages.
The child worm was implanted in "Ye Qi Ye's" body, constantly transmitting "Ye Qi Ye's" situation back.
This way, even if they were separated by over a hundred thousand miles, with layers of "ancient restrictions" blocking them, "Gu Zhenren" could still understand "Ye Qi Ye's" general movements.
This was a protective measure for "Ye Qi Ye" from "The Abyss."
If "Ye Qi Ye" encountered a "life-threatening danger," "Gu Zhenren" would know immediately and provide timely assistance.
"Ye Qi Ye" was "The Bald Guy's" "inheritor," essentially the "Young Master of The Abyss," and nothing could happen to him.
Upon hearing "Gu Zhenren's" words, "The Bald Guy's" thick eyebrows furrowed.
He rumbled.
"What's going on? Why would Qi Ye use the Demonic Heart Seed Dao divine ability? Could it be that he encountered a Nascent Soul stage expert?"
Ye Qi Ye was the "Prodigy of The Abyss," with unparalleled talent!
Although he was young, his strength was considerable.
Especially Ye Qi Ye's ability to resonate with the "Dao intent" and borrow the "power of heaven and earth."
His combat power was many times higher than that of ordinary cultivators.
Ye Qi Ye's orthodox cultivation was at the "late stage of Foundation Establishment," yet he was capable of defeating any "Golden Core cultivator."
Even when encountering a "Nascent Soul cultivator," he could still escape with ease.
Now, with Ye Qi Ye using the "Demonic Heart Seed Dao divine ability," it indicated that his orthodox cultivation at the "late stage of Foundation Establishment" was not enough to handle his opponent!
His opponent should be a "Nascent Soul ancestor"!
Hearing this, "Gu Zhenren's" expression became even stranger.
He said.
"Uh… According to the information transmitted by the Mother-Child Dual Gu, the opponent Young Master Qi Ye encountered seems to be… a Golden Core cultivator!"
WTF?
"The Bald Guy's" eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
"You must be joking! With Qi Ye's orthodox cultivation, even in The Abyss, no Golden Core cultivator could defeat him! The surface cultivators are weak as hell, far inferior to our Abyss. How could they…"
"The Bald Guy" couldn't accept it. He pondered for a long time and finally found a reasonable explanation for himself, and also for Ye Qi Ye.
"I understand. Is Qi Ye trying to show the incomparable power of our Abyss, to crush the opponent with absolute dominance… Heh heh heh, this child, truly arrogant and domineering, I like it!"
Arrogant my ass!
"Gu Zhenren" heard this, and his expression became extremely peculiar.
It was indeed "absolute dominance."
However, it wasn't Ye Qi Ye "crushing" others!
It was Ye Qi Ye being "crushed" by absolute dominance!
…
"Gu Zhenren" began to have some regrets.
Why did he come to find "The Bald Guy"? Since Ye Qi Ye was not in mortal danger, it was better to have one less thing to worry about. He shouldn't have come!
In this situation, how could he report to "The Bald Guy"?
Tell the truth?
"Gu Zhenren" couldn't help but shiver!
If "The Bald Guy" learned the truth, wouldn't he explode with rage!
The bald guy is angry, and the consequences are severe!
The last time "The Bald Guy" was angry, a faction of "demonic cultivators" in "The Abyss" who worshipped "Dark Sacrifices" were completely wiped out!
Gulp!
Thinking of the consequences of "The Bald Guy's" anger, "Gu Zhenren" couldn't help but swallow, his calves trembling slightly.
This time, "The Bald Guy" noticed "Gu Zhenren's" anomaly.
His "demonic eyes" suddenly widened, and a fierce aura erupted, incredibly savage and terrifying.
"A'Gu, what's with your reaction? Speak directly if you have something to say, don't hide it!"
"Gu Zhenren" felt "The Bald Guy's" fierce and domineering aura, trembled all over, and didn't dare to delay, quickly confessing honestly.
"Reporting to the Great Leader, uh… Young Master Qi Ye did not win that battle. He lost…"
What?
Lost!
After using the "Demonic Heart Seed Dao divine ability," with "Nascent Soul cultivation," Ye Qi Ye actually lost to a "surface Golden Core cultivator"?
