Chapter 131 Bludgeon

Inside a secluded valley deep in the mountains of Northern You Prefecture, Ye Que and Ye Yunhai stood ten meters away from each other. "I can choose whatever path to go on, be it the Devil's Practice or the Orthodox cultivation. What does it have to do with you? Who the hell are you? What right do you have to lecture me?" Ye Yunhai was looking at Ye Que with a resentful expression. It was as if he was staring at something filthy. "You keep bringing up the old Ye family. Have you returned to acknowledge your ancestors? Is your name listed in our ancestral records?" Frowning, Ye Que said nothing. "I've seen the records. The name 'Ye Que' isn't there at all, only my name 'Ye Yunhai'. That makes me the Young Master of the General's Manor. You're just a poor country bumpkin. Even if you became a cultivator through dumb luck, it doesn't change that fact. You'll forever be an illegitimate child and a bane. That's the fate you're born with."

Chapter 132 Dragons in the Southland

Ye Que chose not to immediately attack Ye Yunhai after the latter humiliated him. Similarly, he also chose not to stop Ye Yunhai when the latter fled. It wasn't a question of his ability; he just didn't know if he should. Had he suffered such disgrace in the past, he would have definitely pummeled Ye Yunhai without hesitation if he could. But he had gone through too much now. He wouldn't let a few words affect him. More importantly, Ye Yunhai's identity was his younger brother from another mother. With Ye Zhengru gone, what other family did he have in this world? If his mother was alive, she would surely not wish to see him attack Ye Yunhai. She wouldn't want him to do the killing, at least. That was the kind of woman she was. That was the reason that Ye Que hesitated earlier. Even if Ye Yunhai had taken up the Devil's Practice and became a wicked devil cultivator, he wasn't willing to attack the former at this moment. Thus, re

Chapter 133 The Night the Boiled Snow Temple Shuts Down

You Prefecture was the prefecture located at the far north of the glorious Tang Empire as well as the coldest place in the Central Plain. Legend had it that the cold was so severe there that snow would easily form in the mouths of those who speak. Even when two people were standing opposite each other, they might not be able to hear what their friend was telling them. They had no choice but to return home and gently melt down the ice in their mouths before being able to talk. This legend originated from a temple in Northern You Prefecture and thus, it gained the nickname of "Boiled Snow" over time. This also became the origin of the Boiled Snow Temple. The Hall of Great Strength stood tall in the heart of the Boiled Snow Temple, with three gates in front of it. Three golden statues sat inside the hall: Gautama Buddha, Maha Kasyapa, Ananda. Lying in front of the statues was a pale yellow praying mat. Currently, the mat was unoccupied. There w

Chapter 134 The Doors That Won't Open

The ear-piercing sound of door-knocking reverberated throughout the Boiled Snow Temple. The sound traveled far in the dead of the night, passing through the temple doors to reach the three halls, all the way to the Hall of Great Strength. Naturally, the Buddhist cultivators inside heard the sound but their abbot had just issued a handwritten decree that the temple would be closed for ten years and that no one was allowed to leave or enter. The knocking continued for a while before finally stopping. The female disciples of the Pavilion of Wind and Thunder looked flabbergasted. "Could the monks of the Boiled Snow Temple be deaf? Even if they're dead asleep, how could the noise not wake them?" "Senior Sister, could the monks be in meditation?" Qian Shuheng guessed. "It's not like they're meditating behind closed doors. Their ears still function! Do you screen out all noise when you meditate?" his Senior Sister retort

Chapter 135 Unless Dust Has Covered the Eyes of the Buddhas

Hearing the voice coming from behind the temple doors. The disciples of the Pavilion of Wind and Thunder all fell into silence, including the agitated Guan Shuheng. Lei Tianyou told them to come to Boiled Snow Temple because Grandmaster Yunxia was here. He believed that their relationship would be able to buy them several days of shelter. However, Grandmaster Yunxia was dead and that linkage could be considered as completely broken. How else could they open the temple doors? Moreover, the little monk had made it clear that the temple would be sealed off for ten years and no guests would be entertained. The temple wouldn't get involved in any affairs of the Cultivation World either. This could be considered an act of isolation from the outside world in order to focus on their cultivation. Perhaps, they were wholeheartedly trying to shun the world. Endless darkness. Ice-cold stillness. Wh

Chapter 136 Visitors in the Snowstorm

There was a small courtyard overrun with withered grass in the dilapidated Guandi temple. Ye Que stomped his feet lightly, producing a wave of Sword Qi that cut off all the withered grass. He unleashed another wave of Sword Qi and the snow was swept to the sides, leaving a small, empty ground in the courtyard. There was no shortage of firewood in the mountain, so Guan Shuheng was able to swiftly return with a great harvest. The pile of firewood formed a three-meter-tall wooden pagoda. What started as burning embers soon became a bonfire as tall as a human. Even though it was snowing, the blaze was strong and exuberant. With Guan Shuheng feeding the fire with a continuous supply of firewood, the temperature inside the Guandi temple gradually rose. When Red Bean was in the Boiled Snow Temple, she purposefully looked out for food. It was impossible to find any meat there, but she managed to find quite a lot of sweet potatoes and a small bag of

Chapter 137 Black Pieces of Chess Cover the World

It was a snowing atop Mount Cicada in Northern You and yet drizzling in a hidden valley in the southern region. Inside the pitch-black darkness that enveloped the valley, a black-robed old man was playing a game of Chinese chess with a young child with pleated pigtails. In front of them was a chessboard covered partially in black pieces and partially in white pieces, with a blood-red line on it. It was a board that was a whopping ten feet in size. The black-robed old man lowered his head to look at the stone pieces on the board that were scattered like stars in the sky. He looked like he had sunken into a long period of reflection. The young child that sat cross-legged across him didn't disturb him. He held his chin, looking somewhat disinterested. This game wasn't your typical game of Chinese chess. The stone pieces pre-arranged on the board were all the same color and translucent. Every time the old man touched the pieces, th

Chapter 138 A Sound of Thunder with Every Step

The people in black robes who had traversed a great distance to be here were known as Cao Xue and Xie Yi respectively. The leader of the armed youths who broke into the Guandi Temple was known as Chen Chenchen. Those in black were practitioners that had just stepped on the demonic path. They did not come from the Mountain Valley of Pure Blackness but had come in support of their kinds who were implanted in the Truth Cultivation sects. The armed youths were from Broken King Gorge. It might have been coincidence or fate that the Gorge was being attacked from the outside and within while the Pavilion of Wind and Thunder was attacked unexpectedly by Ye Yunhai. Within half a day's time, rivers of blood were flowing from Broken King Gorge. Only a few young disciples with low levels of cultivation emerged eventually. This was because the Gorge was located very close to Zen Mountain. In fact, they were only separated by one cliff. As s

Chapter 139 The Young Lady in the Eyes of the Youths

Xie Yi was a Buddhist cultivator before he became a devil cultivator, and he was also halfway at Formless Realm level. After seeing that Ye Que was merely at beginning Starburst Realm level, he believed that he would win easily. He had not expected to meet someone more than his match, however. No matter how tough the defense of the Impenetrable Defense of Three Deities was, it was no match for the River Soldier. Coupled with Ye Que's gold python of Divine Energy and the Bone Crunching 13 Blades of Thunder, it was logical and expected that the was able to slay Xie Yi. Furthermore, in his previous life, Ye Que had fought against monks from the Temple of Six Buddhas as a disciple of the Qingqiu Sword Sect. In fact, he even defeated their reclusive Buddha while he was at Apocalypse Realm strength. Even if Xie Yi had true Formless Realm level strength, Ye Que was confident of slaying him, much less when he was just halfway through it. Ye Que gave

Chapter 140 Return to Luoyang

The young men and women in Guandi Temple were enjoying game meat. The night grew darker. The snow storm continued. The blankets provided by the Boiled Snow Temple were indeed warm. The young men and young women who had spent their entire day fleeing for their lives were huddled together, wrapping themselves tightly in the blankets. Regardless of their level of cultivation, they were unable to keep warm by mobilizing their True Energy alone, with the exception of Ye Que and Red Bean, whose cultivation level was up a notch from the rest. While they lived in a Cultivation World where dog ate dog, they were by no means novices. Something unexpected must have happened since Ye Que had come back way past the expected time of his return and Cao Xue was nowhere to be seen. However, no one would be so silly as to raise the question now. Regardless of their origins, Ye Que was the one with the greatest voice within this small temple.
