Chapter 286: The Resurgence

Chapter 286: The Resurgence

Wen Leyang frowned at the thought of that, “Yet the First Brother and Second Brother were still alive…”

Chang Li laughed, waved her hand, and interrupted him. “Let’s talk about Third Brother first! Regarding First Brother and Second Brother, I will clarify in just a few sentences! There is no need to think too much about the phrase that I circled in red.”

Wen Leyang initially could not care to ponder over Third Brother’s exclamation of “why is he still staying in the mortal world?”. He refocused his train of thoughts onto the Third Brother once again.

Third Brother did not dare to use his life as a bet to find out if the god level body had a conscience. So he made the decision to gain the advantage of striking first. Since the god level body deliberately planned to deal with Xiang Liu, and with his death, the god level body had no choice but to make an appearance.

Zhui Zi’s primordial spirit and the heavenly water spirit were the necessary components while condensing the water element, heaven’s cone nail. That was why he came up with a chain of unpredictable schemes afterward. In the end, the Third Brother succeeded at seizing the abode, he entrapped and killed his god-level body.

Troubled and deep in thought, Wen Leyang scratched his head, “After this Third Brother seized the god level body’s dharma body. Why did he choose to deal with Xiang Liu as well?”

Chang Li glared at him as if she was resenting Wen Leyang’s question for being too foolish, but still she answered. “After Third Brother seized the god level body, he inherited its entire cultivation base, supernatural power, treasured weapon, and of course its troubles! The god-level body wanted to deal with Xiang Liu because he had no choice but to…”

Wen Leyang had already understood and interrupted, “So you are saying that… it was Xiang Liu who took the initiative to look for trouble with Kong Nuer?”

Xiang Liu was looking for trouble with Kong Nuer. Of course he would not care whether the person that was hiding in that human was actually the god level body or the split body.

Wen Leyang paused for a moment and asked, “Why was Xiang Liu making things difficult for Kong Nuer?” He was asking this question out of habit. He did not count on receiving an answer, but unexpectedly, Chang Li laughed and answered, “I shall discuss this matter with you later on!”

Wen Leyang was stunned for a moment before coming to realization. Red Pot should have since refined the evil soul. So he had basically understood the messy relationship between Kong Nuer’s god-level body, split bodies, and a group of heaven’s cone nails master cultivators. Soon enough, he was going to find out about the enmity between Xiang Liu and Kong Nuer.

After Third Brother succeeded at seizing the abode, Wen Leyang had already mostly understood. After turning into the real Kong Nuer, Third Brother continued to condense the heaven’s cone nails. He used some unknown trick to lure Xiang Liu into the Black and White Island. In the end, he completed the great formation and managed to suppress the evildoer for eternity.

When he thought of this, Wen Leyang had a new question, he looked towards Zhui Zi in slight embarrassment. “The Black and White Island is used to suppress the demon. It has been thousands of years, yet it’s still standing strong. It has not collapsed from the tremendous force between the nine-headed monster and the heaven’s cone nails great formation’s fight.”

She explained to Wen Leyang calmly, “This is easy to understand because the Third Brother still applied his own design onto the great formation in the end.”

With a cunning smirk, Chang Li interrupted Zhui Zi’s gentle explanation. “Actually, not only was the god level body capable of harvesting the life vitality that was refined by the split body. If the god level body was willing, the split body could receive a portion of the life vitality that was refined by it. Normally, the god-level body could only eat and not spit, but if its primordial spirit were to turn into a fool without consciousness… then the life vitality as a result of his cultivation would be free for the split body to harvest and seize!”

Wen Leyang lied on the ground flat on his back. He had understood this time that Third Brother was nourished by the embodiment of true water for a few months. Not only did he seize the god level body’s dharma body, but also the opportunity to suppress the god level’s primordial spirit that was beyond feeble at the time. Finally, he refined the god level body’s primordial spirit into the demon-suppressing heaven’s cone nails!

Soon after, Wen Leyang could feel his scalp turning numb. On the Black and White Island, the tremendous force that was produced between the heaven’s cone nails great formation and Xiang Liu’s fight continuously for all these years, was completely converted into this Third Brother’s life vitality? If it was so, then how incisive would Kong Nuer be now?

Actually, the process of discovering the secret of the jade box to Zhui Zi’s final encounters in her past life could be summarized into one sentence – Third Brother schemed to seize the body of the god level body. Then he refined the god level body’s primordial spirit into the demon-suppressing heaven’s cone nails. But within this sentence, contained countless conspiracies and schemes!

Zhui Zi placed the jade and long silk into the box gently. Wen Leyang’s gaze fell onto the damaged jade box. He frowned as he asked in puzzlement, “I still cannot understand a few things. “Why did the Third Brother leave this box with you back in those days? Why did he not retrieve it afterward?”

Chang Li and Zhui Zi knowingly shook their heads in unison. Zhui Zi gave a forced laugh, “Even I can’t figure this out. For the past few years, I predicted countless possibilities, yet there was not one explanation that made sense completely. Why was there a need for him to hide this box at my house?”

Wen Leyang laid on the ground, refusing to think anymore. He waved his hand and exclaimed, “We shall find out more after we manage to capture Kong Nuer and interrogate him!” After a moment, he suddenly started chuckling once again, his laughter growing louder and clearer.

Both Chang Li and Zhui Zi were dumbfounded by his action and gazed at one another. No one knew what was happening.

Wen Leyang laughed so hard he almost could not breathe. He could not care about the respect of seniority all at once. One of his hands was holding his stomach, while his other pointed to the two demon witches, “All of you… made the wrong guess four years ago! All of you didn’t even manage to find Kong Nuer for the past four years!”

A resentful expression floated on Chang Li and Zhui Zi’s faces at the same time, creating an endearing moment.

Four years ago, Wen Leyang and Darling were trapped in the ghost formation on Shiwan Mountain. Precisely because the group of demon immortals thought that they were about to locate their great enemy Kong Nuer’s whereabouts.

When they searched till the end, it was because Zhui Zi retrieved that jade box. Third Brother once said this back in those days – The item that was hidden in that box, was the place where he was heading to.

This was just Third Brother’s exclamation at the time. If he did not implement his plan, in the end it was highly possible that he would be refined into the demon-suppressing heaven’s cone nails on the Black and White Island. Yet Zhui Zi did not think of the many twists and turns in the event. She thought that the item hidden inside the jade box would pinpoint the exact location of Third Brother’s whereabouts or his immortal’s cave.

As a result, there was only the Black and White Island’s formation chart. Of course it was impossible for Third Brother to be on the Black and White Island. The group of demon immortals still did not know where to head to for their revenge.

The matter was ruined by the demon immortals. The ghost formation under the Shiwan Mountain’s subterranean cavern could not be revoked yet. The few demon immortals were too embarrassed to see Wen Leyang, so they pretended that they were innocent. Anyhow, Wen Leyang would not even lose a hair from his entrapment, he would only be locked in the prohibition spell that lasted ten years…

Wen Leyang was mocking the few demon immortals in his mouth, yet the rage that was oppressed in his stomach almost made him float. His suffering for the past four years was purely for nothing.

Zhui Zi knew that when Wen Leyang was done laughing, he would stomp his foot and curse at them. She raised her head pretentiously to look at the full moon. Laughing cunningly, she said “There are still a lot of matters that we’ll discuss further tomorrow… I do not know why, but I suddenly recalled this phrase.”

“Which phrase?” Chang Li and Zhui laughed with the same cunning look.

“Absence makes the heart grow fonder…” Before Zhui Zi’s voice died away, as expected, Wen Leyang could not care about avenging his hatred anymore. He leaped up, and the moment he touched the ground, he dashed into the courtyard of his house…

Xiaoyi was sitting in her room when she saw Wen Leyang jump into the house from her window. She giggled, and said to Mumu who was sitting next to her chewing on sunflower seeds. “See, he jumped his way in. He did not walk in from the entrance door, I have won today!”

Mumu stopped tasting the sunflower seeds. She realized that she had lost the bet. More than half of her heart turned cold in dejection. As a result, she was still amused by Xiaoyi’s look of being intoxicated by success, “Why don’t you wipe your mouth? Your overflowing saliva is about to drown me!”

Xiaoyi’s eyes were very bright. She did not even try to conceal the joy in her heart. Her little hand firmly pulled at Mumu’s arm, she gathered next to her ear and muttered, “Why don’t we… consider that both of us won?”

Mumu knew that Xiaoyi was bold, but she had never expected that Xiaoyi would say this aloud regardless. Her little face blushed scarlet, then she looked at Xiaoyi’s face, which turned a charming apple red.

Xiaoyi did not wait for Mumu to shame her. She bit her lip and said, “Today is not the same as usual days. It has been four years, you have lost… he is unwilling to give up on you, and so am I…” Xiaoyi’s voice grew softer and softer, soon she could not be heard completely. Suddenly she laughed strangely, her hands pinned down on Mumu’s shoulders, “What are you thinking about? Both of us shall accompany him… but no one… no one is allowed to… we are only allowed to gather and talk!”

Mumu was both annoyed and amused. She was feeling a little confused about how she just became this shameless person, but at the bottom of her heart, she fancied Xiaoyi’s suggestion.

Wen Leyang’s hearing was shocking. He heard Xiaoyi and Mumu’s whisper conversation entirely. He chuckled as he walked into the house. This time the two beautiful women were not as reserved as they were on their first night. They were naturally cheerful, both of them clinging onto each of his arms.

Afterward the light was switched off and Xiaoyi’s grand scheme of ‘only gathering to talk’ was ruined by Wen Leyang…

The next morning, Chang Li, Zhui Zi, and Hanba were gathering with Wen Leyang at the back of the village to discuss the past. Elder Wen and the few key figures of the family quietly gathered into the big house.

Followed by the four family elders, First Uncle Wen Tunhai, and also Mumu.

Four years ago, Hanba brought along Wen Leyang and Little Five as they rushed their journey to the Shiwan Mountain in search of the immortal grass. As a result, Hanba returned from the trip alone. Not long after that, Zhui Zi returned to the mountain once again. The severely-injured demon immortals were healed… the demon immortals made up the lie about Wen Leyang’s disappearance in perfection. The Wen family’s elders were vicious and experienced. They could pick up the queer smell in the lie, but no one was willing to break the demon immortals’ lie.

First Grandfather, Wen, was still behaving as before. He apparently knew very well in his heart yet he refused to speak out loud. However, he looked towards the First Uncle Wen Tunhai and asked, “They said supposedly ten years, as a result, this young lad returned after four years, what do you think of this?”

The First Uncle laughed, but there was no joyous expression seen on his face. “Those seniors pitied Wen Leyang and refused to allow him to participate in the matter. Yet because of some unknown changes that occurred, they failed to locate the enemy themselves. While Wen Leyang’s side too had some unforeseen changes, he came out six years earlier than the destined time…” As he was saying that, the First Uncle paused for a moment, his tone of speaking too softened, “I suppose this is heaven’s will.”

Wen Tunhai was not made of clay and plastic. Wen Leyang was his favorite nephew. Of course he refused to allow him to be involved in danger, but this was an important matter. How could the Wen family’s descendants ignore the whereabouts of the grand master? What Wen Tunhai hated the most was, his cultivation base was too low, and there was no way he could participate in future matters at all.

The First Grandfather understood Wen Tunhai’s thoughts of course, even though he had never discussed it before. The senior generation had the same idea – that Wen Leyang with scars on his face, who fancied eating carrots, was much closer to them than the grand master whom they had never met in the past two thousand years.

Yet there were still many other matters to attend to.

The First Grandfather and the rest understood that the demon immortals ‘lost’ Wen Leyang. The actual reason was that they were hoping that Wen Leyang would never return…

At this time the Fourth Grandfather suddenly gave out a dull laugh. He raised his head and looked towards Wen Tunhai. “Think about this yourself, put aside the grand master grandfather’s whereabouts. They are just the two people Chang Li and Zhui are about to look for. To fight the formidable enemy desperately. Do you think that Wen Leyang will join them?”

Wen Tunhai had a vicious and experienced thought. He only needed to ponder for a moment before he understood Fourth Grandfather’s words. The mission to look for their grand master grandfather was the Wen family’s morality and destiny. Yet the act of helping Chang Li and Zhui Zi to revenge was based on Wen Leyang’s genuine emotions!

Even after the morality was tossed out of the nine heavens, there were still the thick emotions that could not melt away! The Wen family shielded the shortcoming of the family and so did the Luo and Miao family.

What was the shortcoming? Perhaps it was the emotion.

Fourth Grandfather’s voice still remained as icy cold as before. “Whatever he is doing, or he wants to do, is all his business. We are his seniors, why do we bother to pity him?”

Third Grandfather was sitting on the side, his eyelids droopy as he spoke in a dejected manner. “In the final analysis, it is just Wen Leyang who is about to kill a person, yet so many meaningless emotions are involved.”

Second Grandfather too scoffed, “He wants to kill a man, then we shall send some people to help him.”

Wen Tunhai laughed again, this time his smile appeared more at ease. He diverted the topic of conversation, “Wen Nine and Wen Thirteen achieved cultivation progress really fast. According to the grand master Chang Li, the power of them joining hands is almost enough to be enlisted into the rank of top master cultivators as compared to the enlightened person Tian Shu, who guarded the Black and White Island back in those days. They are almost on par!”

Wen Leyang’s two silly uncles were supposed to be men of extraordinary talent gifted from heaven. Yet because their mentality was not fully developed, they were incapable of refining poison with their bodies. As a result they received a blessing in disguise. They cultivated into the Art of Poison with Three Arts fused into one that was passed down from the grand master Tuo Xie. They were completely engrossed and focused on cultivating, they achieved breakthroughs in the bottleneck of becoming top master cultivators without their notice.

At this point, the First Grandfather diverted the topic of conversation once again. He sniggered as he looked towards his three older siblings, “Wen Leyang is honest; there is even less need to mention those two foolish boys. It is said that the grand master Tuo Xie was not too intelligent back in those days… What do you all say, our family’s set of cultivation methods, is it only meant to be trained by foolish people? The more foolish the person is… the sooner the progress in cultivation is achieved?”

The three family elders were too lazy to even curse at him; none of them uttered a word.

Wen Tunhai hastily refocused the topic of conversation. “The siblings Ninth Brother and Thirteen Brother are very intimate with Wen Leyang. If they were to truly stay by his side, they would not create too much trouble for him.” As he was saying that, he chuckled as he looked towards Mumu.

Ever since Mumu entered the big house, she stood upright with her hands on her side next to the few grandfathers with the identity of a granddaughter-in-law. She immediately took a step forward, “For love or for morality, I will never leave him by even half a step this time.”

The Nine Peaks Mountain of today had since changed. It was no longer a place that even the small sect of the Palace of the Sun Dynasty could simply show off their power like back in the days. It was where the utmost highest power of the cultivation existed! Even without the demon immortals who were idling in the village all day long, whether it was the right path of Five Blessings or the World Sect’s evil devils; whoever dared to create troubles on the mountain, would only end up as shattered bones and ashes in the end.

Bushuo, Buzuo, Second and Third Grandfather, primordial foundation establishment was remodeled by Chang Li. Their cultivation base was already no less inferior than the first-rate master cultivators in the Five Blessings. When the two silly uncles, Wen Nine and Wen Thirteen joined hands, they had already stepped onto the rank of top master cultivators. Moreover a remarkable wife was also married into the Nine Peaks Mountain!

Ever since Ah Dan was reincarnated as a human, Mumu lost her zombie.

Ever since Hanba Fifth Brother returned from Shiwan Mountain, it was unknown if he was moved by conscience or he was ashamed to face the two new wives. He was helpless towards Xiaoyi, but to Mumu, he truly did her a huge favor. He personally summoned the most incisive and domineering thousand-year-old zombie from the Yin’s eye of the Qinling Mountains.

If one were to discuss the origin of Mi Xu, Hanba and Mumu were supposed to be derived from a direct line of lineage. With him helping Mumu to cultivation, in addition to the new zombie that was beyond incisive, Mumu achieved progress in her cultivation at an extremely fast speed. When she joined hands with the zombie, her power was no less inferior than the two silly uncles.

The Crow Ridge’s Luo family and the Wen family were united by marriage. This marriage was considered a huge loss to their family. Not only did they marry off a wife to the Wen family, that was also equal to sending a top good hand to the Wen family as a gift. The two Luo family’s elders were clenching their teeth furiously even in their dreams.

On the Nine Peaks Mountain, there were already two pairs of top master cultivators. There were also four more first-rate cultivators. Even without the few demon immortals’ support, their actual power was strong enough to look down on the entire world!

The more the First Grandfather looked at this granddaughter-in-law, the happier he became. That displeasure in his heart earlier was tossed out of the nine heavens completely. He laughed as he said, “Mumu is our Wen Bucao’s wife, but she is also considered the Crow Ridge’s descendant. Two out of three of Tuo Xie’s descendants are here, we cannot just let the Miao clansmen sit back and watch!”

Mumu was feeling very affectionate to the Miao Bujiao’s disciples, yet she was flattering the First Grandfather using her words. She nodded her head strenuously and laughed in a crisp voice, “That is correct! As a token of friendship, Wen Leyang and the grand master Chang Li did not take care of them any less back in those days. As a part of the family, they have a role to play in looking for the grand master Tuo Xie too!”

The First Grandfather suddenly let out a series of loud laughter and raised a thumbs up, “Good girl! Mumu is a good girl!”

By the time the old man had a great laughing, Wen Tunhai spoke once again. “Chi Maojiu inherited the grand master grandfather’s ten percent of witchcraft power. When he first cultivated in the three arts that fused into one, there was not much difference in the beginning. Yet afterward, he achieved vast improvement in his cultivation power. He could be described as advancing at a tremendous pace! By now… even though we have yet to properly measure, I think he should not be weaker than Brother Nine and Brother Thirteen.”

Tuo Xie was a remarkable personage; he was capable of depending on himself alone. He retreated calmly and protected Chang Li out of Guo Hua, Black, and White Island’s sword immortals and the master cultivators of the world’s encirclement. Then, he killed the people of the entire Desert Rebel Mountain single-handedly. While the wasteland’s big mustache, who was also Kong Nuer’s split body, almost killed everyone including Chang Li, Zhui Zi, Wen Leyang, and the golden monkey by himself!

Little Chi Maojiu received ten percent of Tuo Xie’s witchcraft power. He was granted the chance to remold his birth year spell. He cultivated in three arts that fused into one. After his cultivation, even Chang Li dared not look down on him anymore.

Yet no one had expected that, in only four years, the top master cultivators appeared from each of the three families of Wen, Miao, and Luo!

Even so Wen Nine and Wen Thirteen were the martial art prodigies. Mumu received Hanba’s help, Chi Maojiu possessed ten percent of the grand master’s cultivation power. In the final analysis, it was still because the grand master Tuo Xie inherited the cultivation method that was the profound art that defied heaven! Otherwise two thousand years ago, amongst the three brothers that were only dozens of years old, how could Tuo Xie possibly have fought until the cultivators of the world became fearful at the sound of his name? How could Lue Luo possibly have created the top demon immortal by force, by just depending on that little bit of ice cone nail’s primordial spirit? How could Mi Xu possibly have brought along his own zombie, and killed all the great demons under the heaven?

Wen Tunhai continued, “I shall send people to visit the Seven Maidens Mountain, that child Chi Maojiu will certainly come over…”

Mumu widened her eyes in surprise; she could not refrain herself from asking in the end. “So you are saying that… that few demon immortal seniors are going to locate the enemy real soon… and the grand master grandfather’s whereabouts?”

Wen Tunhai shook his head, “I do not know! However, from this day onwards, Wen Leyang will certainly follow the grand master Chang Li and Zhui Zi. No matter where the few demon immortal ancestors go, Wen Leyang will follow. We will first gather the manpower, as long as the time comes, everyone shall depart from the mountain together!”

After they were done discussing the general plan, the First Grandfather was in a good mood. He squinted his eyes and smiled as he sang – “Not a single root grows on the Wen. Never befriend a Miao. Die a dog’s death on Crow Ridge!”

He waved his hand, and dismissed everybody else.
