180: Why does the cultivation world need morality?
Deep within Slaughter City, inside a palace.
An ancient figure with an ethereal, immortal-like demeanor slowly opened his eyes.
“Vermilion Bird?”
“Devouring Sky Dog?”
“Both are peak Quasi-Sages?”
“How did these fellows end up here?”
Frowning, the ancient figure’s face revealed an expression of helplessness.
At the same time, his eyes were filled with wariness.
If he could, he truly didn’t want to provoke Big Black Dog and Vermilion Bird.
He couldn’t afford to offend these two.
It’s just… judging from the current situation, this Devouring Sky Dog probably wouldn’t leave Slaughter City anytime soon!
Thinking of these problems, the ancient figure felt a headache and helplessness.
At the same time, he was also very curious about Tang Tian’s identity.
Why could a young Human Race man command a Quasi-Sage Realm Devouring Sky Dog to follow his lead?
How strange!
How did he do it?
And also, that little girl actually had a Saint protector following her?
Presumably, her background wasn’t simple, was it?
Wait!
Next to that young man, there was also a Five-Clawed Golden Dragon?
Thinking of these questions, the ancient figure was a bit at a loss for words to describe his feelings.
He had forgotten how long it had been since a Cultivator had brought him such shock.
Tang Tian didn’t know what the ancient figure was thinking.
At this moment, he was once again wandering around.
“Brother Tian…”
Suddenly, Big Black Dog looked at Tang Tian.
“What is it?”
Looking at Big Black Dog in confusion, Tang Tian asked with a puzzled expression.
“You say, should we capture the strongest Cultivator in this city and make him your servant?”
After thinking for a moment, Big Black Dog asked.
“Let’s forget it!”
“If others don’t offend me, I won’t offend them!”
Waving his hand, Tang Tian said calmly.
“Alright then!”
Hearing Tang Tian’s words, Big Black Dog couldn’t help but feel a wave of disappointment.
What a pity!
He also secretly sighed in his heart.
Murong Xian’er, on the other hand, looked at Tang Tian with admiration.
She felt that Tang Tian’s mindset was good.
Beside them, the Golden Dragon, who was originally preparing to persuade Tang Tian, couldn’t help but awkwardly shut his mouth.
Isn’t it great to control a super fighter?
What’s the point of morality in the Cultivation world?
He secretly complained in his heart.
The only one who had no reaction was Jiang Junlin.
In his heart, everything revolved around Tang Tian’s lead.
Everything Young Master said was correct.
There was no need for him to be conflicted about anything!
“Let’s find a place to have a good meal first!”
After wandering for a while longer, Tang Tian suggested.
Hearing Tang Tian’s words, everyone nodded in agreement.
In the palace deep within Slaughter City, hearing the conversation between Tang Tian and the others, his expression could be said to be extremely colorful.
He also hated Big Black Dog so much that his teeth itched.
How could such a scoundrel appear in the Sky Swallowing Dog Clan?
He had no integrity at all!
He hadn’t provoked it, so why was it thinking of dealing with him?
As for Tang Tian, the more he looked, the more pleasing he found him.
This young man was very good!
It’s just that he didn’t know what his background was.
If possible, perhaps he should try to win him over.
If he recommended him to his master, he would surely be heavily rewarded, right?
However, it was still too early to say anything.
He could observe for a period of time first!
While the ancient figure was lost in thought, Tang Tian and his group had already entered an inn.
Sitting at a window seat, everyone ordered some food and began to chat.
“Brother Tian, what are your specific plans?”
“Are we establishing a force on the outskirts of the Land of Chaos?”
“Or are we heading to the core area of the Land of Chaos?”
Looking at Tang Tian, Big Black Dog slowly asked.
Murong Xian’er and the others also looked at Tang Tian in unison.
They were all very curious about these questions.
“Then what are your suggestions?”
Glancing at them, Tang Tian didn’t answer but asked instead.
“Tang Tian, in my opinion, it’s most suitable for us to establish a force on the edge of the core area of the Land of Chaos.”
“Anyway, Big Black Dog’s strength isn’t weak now, and the Golden Dragon might Break through at any time.”
“If we stay on the outskirts, it would be a bit of a waste of time.”
Blinking her eyes, Murong Xian’er analyzed clearly and logically.
Hearing Murong Xian’er’s words, Tang Tian and the others all nodded.
They also felt that Murong Xian’er’s analysis made sense.
“But if that’s the case, won’t our expansion speed be very slow?”
“And will it be easy to become the target of public criticism?”
Hesitating for a moment, the Golden Dragon asked cautiously.
“Do you think that if we establish a force on the outskirts, we won’t become the target of public criticism?”
“The forces here in the Land of Chaos probably have intricate relationships, don’t they?”
Looking at the Golden Dragon, Murong Xian’er retorted.
“This…”
Hearing Murong Xian’er’s words, the Golden Dragon had no way to refute.
Thinking about it carefully, he also felt that Murong Xian’er’s words made sense.
“Alright.”
“There’s nothing to be conflicted about.”
“Let’s do as Xian’er says!”
Finally, Tang Tian made the final decision.
Since Tang Tian had said so, the others naturally couldn’t say anything more.
Anyway, listening to him was the right thing to do.
After the food and wine were served, except for Murong Xian’er who was very refined, Tang Tian, the other two, and Big Black Dog all devoured their food.
“These guys…”
Shaking her head, Murong Xian’er had a wry smile on her face.
Basically, her attention was focused on Tang Tian.
What a pity!
If Tang Tian was willing to join the Alchemist Guild, how wonderful would that be?
Murong Xian’er secretly sighed in her heart.
At the same time, she also felt a little depressed.
She could clearly mobilize some experts to come, but Tang Tian still politely refused.
She didn’t know what he was thinking.
Did he not want to be too deeply tied to her, or did he not want to be too deeply tied to the Alchemist Guild?
As soon as she thought of these things, Murong Xian’er felt a little helpless in her heart.
No way!
Who made Tang Tian so stubborn?
However, when she looked at Big Black Dog and the Golden Dragon, Murong Xian’er’s heart was relieved again.
This guy’s servants and followers were not ordinary fierce!
Wasn’t it normal for him not to want to be subservient to others?
Just as Tang Tian and his group had eaten and drunk their fill, a figure suddenly appeared not far in front of them.
This was a Thin Middle-Aged Man dressed as a butler!
The Middle-aged Man’s strength was actually in the Late Stage Daluo Golden Immortal Realm.
“Gentlemen, our City Lord wishes to invite you to the City Lord’s Mansion. What do you think?”
Cupping his hands in a bow, the Thin Middle-Aged Man asked with a chuckle.
As he spoke, he basically stared at Tang Tian’s face.
Undoubtedly, he knew who among these fellows could make decisions.
“City Lord?”
Raising an eyebrow, Tang Tian’s face showed a surprised expression.
He was really curious, what was the City Lord of Slaughter City trying to pull?
After a moment of thought, Tang Tian felt it was very amusing.
“That’s right!”
Nodding, the Middle-aged Man replied.
“Let’s go!”
After pondering for a moment, Tang Tian made a decision.
Anyway, with Big Black Dog around, there was nothing to worry about.
At worst, they would just run away.
He wanted to see what the City Lord of Slaughter City was up to.
Subsequently, the group swaggered towards the City Lord’s Mansion.
Along the way, they attracted countless gazes.
The Cultivators of Slaughter City were all very curious, what exactly was going on?
It seemed that the City Lord’s butler was inviting these few fellows?
What was the background of these few fellows?
They were all very curious about this.
However, this was destined to be a question without an answer.
Nevertheless, everyone was very wary of Tang Tian and his group.
The slaughter not long ago was still vivid in their minds!
They weren’t fools, how could they not understand that they simply couldn’t afford to provoke Tang Tian and his group?
Led by the Middle-aged Man, it wasn’t long before Tang Tian and his group arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion, entering a palace.
Here, someone had already been waiting for a long time.
An old man dressed in a white robe, looking like an immortal.
A Quasi-Sage!
Looking at this figure, how could Tang Tian and the others not understand?
This one was probably the City Lord of Slaughter City, right?
“My name is Murong Fu!”
“May I ask for your names?”
Looking at Tang Tian and the others, the City Lord of Slaughter City said with a chuckle.
Led by Tang Tian, everyone briefly introduced themselves.
“Young Master Tang, may I ask if we can have a chat?”
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Murong Fu got straight to the point.
“Oh?”
“What do you wish to discuss?”
Raising an eyebrow, Tang Tian asked with curiosity.
He wanted to see what the other party intended to say.
“Young Master Tang, may I ask if you came to the Land of Chaos on your own initiative, or out of desperation with no other choice?”
After a moment of contemplation, Murong Fu didn’t answer but asked a question instead.
“Is it very important?”
“If you have something to say, just say it directly.”
Looking deeply at Murong Fu, Tang Tian said expressionlessly.
Big Black Dog, on the other hand, was lazily sprawled at Tang Tian’s feet, dozing off.
However, it was certain that if anything went wrong, it would probably be the first to act.
“This old man wishes to represent my master and invite Young Master Tang to join our force.”
After a moment of silence, Murong Fu said unhurriedly.
“Your force is?”
Slightly startled, Tang Tian’s face showed an expression of curiosity.
Similarly, Murong Xian’er and the others were also full of curiosity.
“In the Land of Chaos, there are ten top-tier forces.”
“Among them, the Hall of Slaughter is one of them.”
“My master is the Hall Master of the Hall of Slaughter!”
Smiling, Murong Fu slowly said.
His face also showed an expression of arrogance.
Clearly, he was proud of the Hall of Slaughter.
Hearing Murong Fu’s words, Tang Tian’s face showed an expression of surprise.
Hall of Slaughter?
One of the ten top-tier forces in the Land of Chaos?
Interesting!
“Unfortunately, I have no interest in joining any force.”
Shaking his head, Tang Tian slowly said.
Although he had already guessed it, Murong Fu still felt a wave of disappointment upon hearing Tang Tian’s refusal.
However, he also had no intention of continuing to persuade him.
As for forcing someone?
That was even less likely!
This Devouring Sky Dog in front of him was not to be trifled with!
After chatting for a few more sentences, Tang Tian and his group bid farewell and left.
“City Lord, they…”
Looking at Murong Fu, the Middle-aged Man’s face showed an expression of wanting to speak but hesitating.
“Let’s stop here!”
Murong Fu waved his hand and said indifferently.
If it were anyone else, perhaps he could have used other methods.
But, he couldn't afford to provoke Tang Tian and his group.
Especially since he knew that Murong Xianer also had a powerful Dao Protector hidden in the shadows.
These guys, their origins are probably incredibly astonishing, right?
To be on the safe side, he ultimately had no intention of acting rashly.
"How much do you know about the Hall of Slaughter?"
Stepping out of the City Lord's Mansion, Tang Tian asked with a hint of curiosity.
"I know a little about the Hall of Slaughter."
"One can only say that anyone or any force operating in the Land of Chaos, who isn't covered in blood?"
"The Hall of Slaughter is similar to an Assassin Alliance in the outside world."
"What makes them different from other assassin organizations is that they not only take on assassin missions but also develop their own territory."
Big Black Dog looked at Tang Tian and said slowly.
Tang Tian was stunned, and a surprised expression appeared on his face.
"Tang Tian, should we leave Slaughter City now?"
Murong Xianer turned her head to look at Tang Tian and asked.
"Of course!"
"There's no point in staying here any longer."
Tang Tian nodded lightly and chuckled wryly.
To be honest, Tang Tian was quite disappointed.
Originally, he had planned to see if he could buy Sacred Medicine Seeds in Slaughter City.
But in reality, let alone Sacred Medicine Seeds.
There weren't even Celestial Medicine seeds of a slightly higher grade here.
Besides being speechless, what else could Tang Tian say?
One can only say that the Land of Chaos here is really a bit poor!
"Indeed."
Murong Xianer nodded in agreement and said.
Subsequently, the group continued towards the depths of the Land of Chaos.
Along the way, the Cultivators around them all kept their distance when they saw Tang Tian and his group.
The main reason was that the group had become too famous in Slaughter City.
First, Big Black Dog directly confronted a Quasi-Sage expert!
Then, the Golden Dragon went on a rampage!
Finally, the group was even invited to the City Lord's Mansion and left unscathed!
The Cultivators of Slaughter City knew very well that Tang Tian and his group were not to be provoked.
Offending them would bring no benefits.
Seeing the reactions of the surrounding Cultivators, Tang Tian couldn't help but feel a moment of trance.
At this moment, he unconsciously thought of those days in the Lower Realm.
How similar were the reactions of these Cultivators to those in the Lower Realm back then?
Above the firmament, in the Void Realm.
The Green-robed Old Woman had always followed Murong Xianer, neither too far nor too close.
Looking at the Golden Dragon and Big Black Dog, her expression was undeniably peculiar.
She really couldn't understand how Tang Tian had done it.
The Golden Dragon was understandable!
She knew very well what his situation was like before.
But, the Devouring Sky Dog was actually willing to follow him?
Was this a joke?
"Is this kid really just a Cultivator who Ascended from the Lower Realm?"
Looking at Tang Tian's back, the Green-robed Old Woman's face showed a puzzled expression.
At the same time, she also looked at Jiang Junlin with surprise.
Human Emperor Bloodline?
She didn't expect that someone could still Awaken the Human Emperor Bloodline now!
Interesting!
Truly interesting!
During the time Tang Tian and his group entered the Land of Chaos, many things happened in the outside world.
For example, in the Southern Immortal Realm?
It is rumored that after the Assassin Alliance and the Wuji Taoist Temple in the Southern Immortal Realm were destroyed by Dragon Clan powerhouses.
The people from these two forces have already had multiple conflicts with the Dragon Clan.
Both sides suffered losses!
However, in the end, both sides realized that something was amiss.
It seemed that the Dragon Clan was not actually massacred by the Assassin Alliance or the Wuji Taoist Temple?
They had hired someone to deduce it!
Ultimately, they discovered that there was someone else involved.
However, who it was could not be deduced.
Because the divine calculator responsible for the deduction suffered a severe backlash.
At the same time, the mysterious news of Tang Tian and his group also attracted the attention of many people.
Tang Tian was a prominent figure in the Southern Immortal Realm!
How could he just disappear?
So, where did he go now?
They were truly curious about this question.
Tang Tian didn't know what the situation was like in the outside world.
Now, his group had already left Slaughter City and continued their journey into the Land of Chaos.
While chatting casually with the others, Tang Tian also paid attention to the situation in his inner space.
Currently, Luo Yiyi and Jiang Wanrou were on the verge of a Breakthrough.
Similarly, the Little Mouse was also about to complete her evolution.
In as little as three to five days, or as long as ten to fifteen days, they would definitely emerge from their closed-door Cultivation.
Tang Tian was incredibly excited about this.
With another Breakthrough in strength, Yiyi's combat power should be able to sweep through Saints, right?
As for Wanrou and the Little Mouse, it was hard to say.
Suddenly, Big Black Dog looked in a certain direction thoughtfully.
A solemn expression also appeared on its face.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Big Black Dog's actions, Tang Tian asked with a hint of confusion.
Similarly, the others also looked at Big Black Dog with curiosity.
"A few of my good clansmen have already entered the Land of Chaos."
"Perhaps, this is to hunt me down?"
Big Black Dog shook its head and said slowly.
As it spoke, a faint killing intent erupted from its body.
Hearing Big Black Dog's words, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
This?
"Brother Dog, what do you plan to do?"
Breaking the silence, the Golden Dragon asked with a hint of curiosity.
"Of course, kill without mercy."
"As long as they stand on my opposite side, then everyone is an enemy."
"There's no need to be soft-hearted."
Big Black Dog shook its head and said indifferently.
Its eyes were also full of cold light.
Everyone was not surprised by Big Black Dog's words.
This was just an expected outcome.
What was there to be so surprised about?
"However..."
Then, Big Black Dog looked at Tang Tian, as if wanting to say something but hesitating.
"However, what?"
Tang Tian looked at Big Black Dog and asked curiously.
"If necessary, can this sister-in-law's Dao Protector help out?"
Big Black Dog chuckled awkwardly and asked.
As it spoke, it glanced at Murong Xianer, who was beside Tang Tian.
"Yes."
Before Tang Tian could speak, Murong Xianer smiled and nodded.
"Then there's no problem!"
"..."
...Lower Realm, Emperor Clan Tang Family.
During this period, Nie Keke had been primarily comprehending the Ancient Character 'Demon'.
It must be said that her talent was truly astonishing.
Isn't that right?
Now, she had already begun to ponder the creation of Cultivation Technique.
And, she had a good start.
Purple Qilin and Taotie were secretly amazed by this.
"Having Awakened the super strong Demon Race Royal Family Bloodline, and the Ancient Character 'Demon', Mistress's future is limitless!"
Outside Tang Tian's palace, Taotie looked towards the palace and said with emotion.
"Isn't this normal?"
"Are there any weaklings around Master?"
Purple Qilin shook its head and said casually.
"..."
Hearing Purple Qilin's words, Taotie was speechless for a moment.
It opened its mouth, truly not knowing how to refute it.
Indeed!
There were no weaklings around Tang Tian.
The two of them, and Big Black Dog, whose origins were simple?
Even Tang Tian's two Dao Protectors, plus this kid Ye Wuming, were not simple.
And the Mistress, and that one?
That was even more astonishing!
"I wonder when we will be able to Ascend?"
Purple Qilin stretched lazily and said with a hint of boredom.
During its time in the Lower Realm, it had long since grown tired of it.
Especially now that the entire plane was unified.
Although Tang Tian had Ascended, in the eyes of all living beings, he was the Lord of the Plane.
It was also because of this that now, who wasn't respectful to the Emperor Clan Tang Family?
The result was that they wanted to go out and kill, but they didn't have any opportunities.
"It shouldn't be long now, right?"
"With that one's background, perhaps she will become a Saint in a short time?"
"Moreover, when Brother Dog finishes his Nirvana period, his strength will probably also advance by leaps and bounds, right?"
Taotie hesitated for a moment and said with an uncertain expression.
Similarly, its eyes were also full of anticipation.
Whether it was Purple Qilin or Taotie, they both hoped to Ascend early.
Just as they were chatting, Ye Wuming ran over, looking disheveled.
Seeing Ye Wuming's appearance, Taotie and the others could easily guess what this guy had been up to again.
Presumably, he had gone to dig up ancestral graves again, right?
They just didn't know whose ancestral graves this guy had dug up this time?
"What are you talking about?"
"I think I heard 'Ascension' just now?"
"What? Can we Ascend now? Can we reunite with Boss?"
Ye Wuming looked at Taotie, then at Purple Qilin, and asked with anticipation.
"Next, can I go to the Immortal Realm to dig graves?"
Then, he said excitedly.
Hearing Ye Wuming's words, even Taotie and Purple Qilin, who considered themselves to have no integrity, felt a bit suffocated at this moment.
They felt that they had much more integrity than Ye Wuming.
Although they didn't reject grave digging!
But, at least they wouldn't actively go digging graves, right?
"Ye Wuming, you're probably going to become a public enemy of the Immortal Realm like this!"
"Can't you have some moral values?"
Taotie pouted and said.
"Moral values?"
"Of course I have!"
"Do you think, with Boss's personality, how many enemies must he have by now?"
"At that time, I'll just specifically dig up the graves related to his enemies, wouldn't that be enough?"
Ye Wuming spread his hands and said righteously.
Hearing Ye Wuming's words, Taotie and the others were all speechless.
This?
After thinking about it seriously, they also felt that Ye Wuming's words made sense.
With Tang Tian's personality, he was probably already surrounded by enemies, right?
Especially since those guys in the Immortal Realm treated Ascenders as prey!
