Chapter 460 Calculation!
Chapter 460 Calculation!
The man respected as "uncle" by Princess Wan Tao of Wan Ya Palace was just an old man with white hair and beard, a thin face, but high bulges on his temples.
There were all kinds of scars on the old man's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.
Either being stabbed by the sharp edge of a knife, or being burned by the power of the scorching sun.
In short, the facial features are extremely morbid and distorted, and hideous and terrifying.
The old man with this appearance was none other than Wan Shanyao, the supreme elder in Wan Ya Palace who had been elusive for many years.
At the same time, he is also the strongest in the entire sect!
In fact, more than two hundred years ago, he had already reached the "Sixth Level of Tianmen Realm".
Today, more than two hundred years later, due to his old age, his cultivation has regressed to the peak of the fifth level of Tianmen Realm.
Even so, Wan Shanyao is still the strongest among all the mid-level sects today!
At this moment, the old man with ferocious features, after hearing Wan Tao say that someone 800 miles away was going through a "minor heavenly tribulation" and showing an eager attitude to try, could not help but shook his head and said, "My time is coming to an end, but I still came thousands of miles to accompany you to [Heavenly City], not to do those petty fights!"
"If it weren't for the fact that since you issued the 'Bounty Wanted', many of my best fighters in Wanya Palace have lost their lives in the pursuit of that fellow named Ding Chen, and you took the opportunity to beg me to come out of retirement, I wouldn't bother to take care of this matter!"
Hearing this, Wan Tao hurriedly put on an appearance of listening to instructions: "Yes, yes, yes, uncle has been very kind to me and the entire Wan Ya Palace."
"You are old. If Ding Chen was not unexpectedly strong, I would not dare to trouble you."
"That boy is simply a living 'monster'."
"According to reports from our subordinates, Ding Chen and his men did not try to conceal their appearance or whereabouts during their journey."
"But those sect leaders and bounty hunters who had seen the [Bounty Wanted] and were determined to take his head were all killed by him!"
"Ding Chen just swaggered all the way to [Tianci City]!"
"Seeing the loss of soldiers and generals at Wanya Palace, many cultivators in the outside world even began to mock us for 'hitting a wall' and questioned our strength..."
"My nephew is really angry. For the sake of safety, I am asking you to come out of retirement."
Wan Shanyao snorted coldly: "That sounds nice!"
"You asked me to come out of seclusion. If you really only wanted to kill that kid named Ding, why did you encourage me to go with you to someone else's place of tribulation?"
"Although I am blind, my spiritual sense is stronger than before!"
"That direction is clearly the spiritual aura of tribulation that can only be caused by two people breaking through the 'Minor Heavenly Tribulation' at the same time."
"In just a few months, Ding Chen's cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds..."
"It's impossible that the girl who followed him also broke through the limit of the 'Earth Crystal Realm' and attracted the thunder punishment from the Heavenly Dao, right?"
At this point, Wan Shanyao pointed at Wan Tao with an indignant look on his face: "You, you are clearly planning to use me as a 'knife' in your hand to do the 'robbery' business!"
"Don't you know that in my current state, every time I fight with someone, the end will come sooner and sooner?"
"Although my time is coming to an end, even if I have to die, I will die in Wanya Palace."
"I want the place where I sit and die to become a 'small blessed land' full of mysterious spirits, so as to benefit the younger generations of the sect."
"Oh, uncle is righteous, how could this nephew not know it?"
Wan Tao praised earnestly, "The reason why I'm so shameless as to trouble you is that I really need your help."
"On the other hand... I am sure that the kid named Ding Chen must have an extraordinary treasure in his hands."
"Otherwise, how could he, a kid who had not even touched the threshold of the 'Earth Crystal Realm' when he first joined the Temple Lake Blessed Land, grow to such a level in such a short time?"
"After getting rid of Ding Chen, the 'exotic treasure' that made him suddenly extremely powerful in a short period of time may be able to create powerful conditions for you, uncle, to jump several levels of the 'Heavenly Gate Realm' and overcome the 'Great Heavenly Tribulation' in one fell swoop!"
"Well, I hope so!"
Wan Shanyao replied coldly.
Wan Tao pretended not to notice the other party's suspicious look and continued, "As for the two cultivators who are currently breaking through the barrier..."
"If they fail in their calamity-transcendence and die, it would be great if we could pick up some resources for free."
"My nephew has already learned about it. The 'Tianci Wanbao Auction' just ended not long ago."
"At this time, most of those who have broken through the 'Minor Heavenly Tribulation' within a 3,000-mile radius of [Tianci City] have just participated in an auction and have some good things in their hands!"
"We can get it without any effort, isn't it great?"
"Even if they succeed in overcoming the tribulation, given their innocence at the beginning of entering the Heavenly Gate Realm, your nephew can definitely defeat them both in a very short time. You don't need to do anything at all."
Wan Tao became more and more excited as he spoke: "When the time comes, you will just need to stand by and protect your nephew."
"I may kill the man and take his treasure;"
"Or force them to swear a blood oath of loyalty and accept them into the sect."
"No matter how you calculate it, it's a sure win, right?"
"Uncle, if we decide to act, we have to act quickly."
"As the saying goes, 'the first to strike is the strongest, the last to strike will suffer.'"
"It's possible that other cultivators will be attracted by the sight of 'Heavenly Thunder Punishment'."
After a brief consideration, Wan Shanyao finally nodded: "Well, then it's up to you!"
Seeing this, Wan Tao secretly laughed in his heart: "Hey, old man, we have to make good use of you."
"Rather than letting you die in the sect's blessed land, I would rather create the 'conditions' for you to die directly beside me before you die, and pass on all your skills to me alone!"
"Only under my leadership can Wanya Palace become unprecedentedly powerful and have the hope of becoming a top-grade sect..."
