37: Junior brother, change your clothes, Ye Fan will be unhappy.

As the earth's Qi surged wildly, Shen Lian felt his cultivation rapidly ascend once again.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, his cultivation had already reached the fourth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm.

However, just as one-third of the earth's Qi had been absorbed and Shen Lian's cultivation was about to enter the fifth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, a terrifying pressure approached from hundreds of miles away.

"Hmm?"

With a low hum, Shen Lian didn't hesitate. He spun around, withdrew from the formation, and immediately dodged the incoming Gang Qi from across the air.

"What kind of rat dares to destroy my Heavenly Feather Sect's Spiritual Vein? You truly have a death wish!"

With a furious roar, Old Ancestor Tianyu's figure appeared in the Void Realm, standing thirty feet away from Shen Lian, her back to him, displaying the demeanor of a Grandmaster.

However, a single sentence from the rogue behind her nearly shattered her Dao Heart.

"Old Wall Lamp! You've been in seclusion for three years and are still stuck at the second level of the Immortal Realm. How much of a trash are you, exactly?"

"What did you say!?"

Old Ancestor Tianyu suddenly turned around, and a defiant figure abruptly entered her sight. For a moment, she didn't recognize that this person was Shen Lian.

"Dare to repeat that to this Ancestor!"

"I said, Old Wall Lamp, why are you such a trash? You've lived for over six thousand years, longer than a tortoise,

yet you're still stuck in the Immortal Realm. With such low-level talent, why don't you choose to commit suicide to preserve a shred of a Cultivator's dignity?!"

"Presumptuous!!!"

Old Ancestor Tianyu roared in anger, causing the surrounding air to twist and explode.

"What rogue dares to act wildly in front of this Ancestor!"

"Hahahahaha—"

Shen Lian burst into laughter, then raised a hand and pointed.

"Old Wall Lamp, open your dog eyes and look closely, who exactly am I!"

Old Ancestor Tianyu stared intently, then was filled with disbelief.

"You, Shen Lian?"

"I thought you were going blind and couldn't recognize this scourge!"

After the initial shock, Old Ancestor Tianyu instantly became enraged.

"You Rebellious Disciple, this Ancestor was just wondering how to find you, and you actually delivered yourself to my doorstep?"

I ask you, did you kill the four Elders of Heavenly Feather Sect and the two Peak Masters?"

"Not only those few dogs you mentioned, but I also destroyed that top-grade Spiritual Vein.

And the other three foolish dogs you sent to the Monster Beast Mountain Range, as well as thousands of inner Disciple bitches, I slaughtered them all.

However, I remember leaving one crippled dog to report back to you. Didn't you receive the message?"

"Rebellious Disciple!"

Hearing Shen Lian calmly admit to everything, Old Ancestor Tianyu finally couldn't hold back.

"How could my Heavenly Feather Sect produce such a degenerate like you!"

"The me now, isn't this exactly what you've always wished to see? Since I'm a scourge, I should have the attitude of a scourge. Old Wall Lamp, your wish has come true!"

"This Ancestor will cut you into a thousand pieces!"

"Hahahaha, kill me, Shen Lian? Do you have that ability?!"

Just then, Su Yuheng's figure gracefully appeared beside Old Ancestor Tianyu.

"Junior Brother!"

Seeing Shen Lian, she immediately cried out anxiously.

"Do you know you've made a big mistake? Why aren't you going back to receive Sect punishment? I'll try my best to protect you."

Mid-sentence, her brows furrowed, and she scrutinized his attire, her expression darkening.

"How many times have I told you, this outfit doesn't suit you. Why won't you listen?

Quickly change back into that Disciple uniform, otherwise Ye Fan will be unhappy again!"

The moment she saw Shen Lian, she subconsciously imposed her ingrained impression of him onto him, immediately launching into a lecture.

"Hahaha, Su Yuheng, you bitch, do you still think I'll be like before, doing whatever you say?

Put away your nauseating rhetoric and your stale platitudes to coax your trash Ye Fan. As for someone like you, I'll consider it five hundred years spent raising a white-eyed wolf that can't be tamed!"

"What did you say?"

Su Yuheng was utterly shocked.

bitch, white-eyed wolf?

Such vicious words, coming from the mouth of Shen Lian, who used to obey her every command?

For a moment, she clutched her chest, feeling her breathing quicken!

"Junior Brother, what did you call me? Who gave you the guts to curse me like that? Apologize to me immediately, otherwise, you can forget about me ever forgiving you in this life!"

When a simp suddenly awakens and stops simping, even turning to bite back, no one who was being simped for can accept it.

Su Yuheng's eyes instantly turned red, and she sternly resorted to her old methods of training a dog, attempting to force Shen Lian into submission.

However... "bitch, are you still planning to use your ridiculous rhetoric to force me into submission?

For the past five hundred years, you seven white-eyed wolves have rightfully sucked my blood,

and harmed me. I've kept all of it in my heart, and I will slowly settle this score with you.

Everything you currently possess, I will slowly destroy it all, and then let you die in the dirtiest mud.

But don't worry, before you die, you will definitely experience what despair feels like. Don't rush, none of you will escape.

No one can save you. From the moment I awoke,

everyone who has provoked me will pay the most tragic price for their actions.

Those five dogs around you are just interest. The bigger price is yet to come."

"So, Hong Ling and Lan Shang, you killed them all? Why, why would you do this!"

"Even now, you bitch still haven't figured it out? But it doesn't matter, with your despair-inducing intelligence, you naturally can't understand where you went wrong.

I don't expect you to suddenly awaken, and please don't awaken. Go to Hell with this foolish confidence; it's the only destination for a bitch like you!"

Su Yuheng was so shocked by Shen Lian's words that she nearly lost control of her spiritual energy and fell from the sky.

She couldn't believe it; why would the once obedient Shen Lian suddenly utter such vicious words and employ such cruel methods?

For a moment, her mouth hung open, unable to utter a word.

The Aura emanating from Shen Lian at this moment actually gave her a chilling premonition.

"Enough, Rebellious Disciple!"

Old Ancestor Tianyu interrupted their conversation with a deep voice.

"If you have even a shred of remorse, obediently return to the Sect with this Ancestor to receive punishment. Perhaps, seeing your sincere repentance, this Ancestor can leave you a complete corpse!"

"Hahahaha!"

Old Ancestor Tianyu was met with unrestrained laughter.

"Even now, you Old Wall Lamp, are you still joking? Remorse? Go to Hell with your remorse! Even if everyone in Heavenly Feather Sect were killed by me,

I wouldn't feel an ounce of remorse. All I feel is an inability to fully vent my anger, wishing I could bury you and all the ants of the entire Heavenly Feather Sect in a sea of fire, to fall into Reincarnation forever."

"Seeking death!"

Old Ancestor Tianyu let out one last deep roar, then stopped speaking and directly attacked.

"Good timing!"

Facing the Immortal Realm's aggression, Shen Lian advanced instead of retreating.

The moment their two palm strikes met.

Boom—

With a shocking explosion, Shen Lian immediately spat out crimson blood and flew back thirty feet.

But Old Ancestor Tianyu felt her entire body numb, a powerful current rapidly circulating through her meridians, causing her cheeks to twitch involuntarily.

"Little Beast, what method did you use?"

Shen Lian stepped through the Void Realm to stabilize himself, quickly employing Void Concealment to dissipate the residual energy within his body.

He then wiped away the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth and sneered, "A Law of Thunder Rhyme comprehended from the Three Thousand Lightning Tribulations, fused with the Five Absolutes Heaven Extinguishing Force. Old Wall Lamp, the taste of electrotherapy isn't pleasant, is it!"

"Three Thousand Lightning Tribulations?"

Old Ancestor Tianyu was startled, then her pupils contracted.

"You've entered the Tribulation Crossing Realm?"

"Is that surprising? Two days ago, I had already recovered to Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivation.

How does that compare to your son of heavenly mandate, whom you meticulously cultivated for a hundred years, yet is only at the seventh level of Soul Transformation? Hahaha."

Upon hearing this, everyone, including Su Yuheng, was dumbfounded.

From the time Shen Lian began harming fellow Disciples until now, it had only been a mere nine days.

In other words, in these short nine days, he had advanced from the first level of Qi Gathering to the Tribulation Crossing Realm in one go?

This could no longer be described as Prodigy.

"No, under no circumstances can this Little Beast leave alive today. Not only did he not die from my full-power palm strike, but he even managed to counterattack.

With such cunning and strength, he will undoubtedly be the biggest obstacle in Ye Fan's path forward. I cannot allow any hidden dangers that might affect Ye Fan's future to exist."

Old Ancestor Tianyu's killing intent intensified.

Her gaze slowly shifted to Su Yuheng.

Su Yuheng instantly understood the Old Ancestor's meaning, knowing that she was being told to kill Shen Lian.

Little did she know, at this moment, a smirk curled at Shen Lian's lips.

The earth's Qi in the Medicinal Field below, after the impact of the extreme move, began to fluctuate even more violently. And he was waiting for this very moment.
