Damn, I turned into a monster

Chapter 247: A close contest, a matter of life and death.

That's pretty much it.

Wang Wu didn't think he had done anything wrong, and even if the First Heavenly Martial was someone who valued right and wrong more than who was close or distant, he wouldn't think the other party would side with the Qionglan Sect cultivators.

To be honest, he still doesn't know the name of the old man who said he wanted to kill him, nor does he know what the other man looks like. But that doesn't matter anymore, because he won't be around for long.

This certainly doesn't mean Wang Wu intended to kill the other person. He was still kind-hearted; even though the other person repeatedly threatened to kill him, he still chose to forgive him...

Okay, it's not that exaggerated. He just doesn't care, but the other party will definitely be punished. As for whether they'll be killed, he doesn't care about that.

After listening to Wang Wu's description, Tian Wu naturally knew that Wang Wu was not lying, and he was also very clear that he was telling the whole truth without embellishment or selective disclosure to his own advantage.

It's just telling the truth, without any embellishment.

After all, there's no point in embellishing the story, because at this point, Wu Yi doesn't buy into any lies or so-called 'art of speaking'.

After listening to Wang Wu's description, Tian Wu fell into deep thought, but not for long—in the real world, it was less than a second.

He quickly made his judgment, which was quite simple, since Wang Wu's case was inherently straightforward:
“My son’s entire process of taking the exam here complied with the regulations, but you’re arresting him for this? Isn’t that a bit of a double standard?”

The First Martial Master could roughly understand what was going on. It was simply that the cultivator Wang Wu had killed was of unusual status, and in order not to offend the family behind him, the Qionglan Sect naturally chose to use this talented disciple as a scapegoat.

Of course, he is a promising talent with exceptional abilities, so if we can protect him, we should definitely protect him, as long as Wang Wu is willing to back down.

Unfortunately, Wang Wu clearly had no intention of doing so. And since that was the case, since they were given a possible 'way out' but didn't take it, then they couldn't be blamed for not doing so.

If nothing unexpected happens, and if there isn't the insurance I left with Wang Wu, then Wang Wu is practically guaranteed to die, I'm certain of that on the first day.

Now that Wang Wu has unleashed his own aura, along with two Immortal Lords and one Immortal Emperor, they will naturally be able to adapt to changing circumstances.

This improvisation involved pushing one of them out as a scapegoat.

Unlike Wang Wu, Tian Tian Wu was able to clearly sense the cultivators hiding behind the 'curtain' because Wang Wu's strength was far inferior to theirs, so he could neither find nor see them.

But for his mentors, this was naturally not a problem.

"I think you should be able to give my child an explanation?"

On the first day, Wu didn't refer to Wang Wu as his disciple, but instead used the term "young man," and later directly called him "my child." This was because he considered that if Wang Wu were only his disciple, it might affect his future joining the Qionglan Sect.

If he still wants to join, after all, coming from a sect with an Immortal Emperor and coming from a family with an Immortal Emperor are two different concepts.

What Tianwu didn't know was that no matter how he addressed Wang Wu, it didn't really matter.

After all, in this star sector, it is quite common for sects with Immortal Emperors to send their disciples to the Qionglan Sect for further study and training.

After all, the Qionglan Sect basically represents the official example of the Qiongyuan civilization, and they are also responsible for many aspects of the management of this star sector.

It is the largest and strongest sect in this star sector; there is no other sect stronger than it.

For sects second only to Qionglan Sect, being able to enter this major sect for further study is like their child taking the college entrance exam—not only taking the exam, but also getting a job along the way.

Because you receive a salary upon joining the Qionglan Sect. While other sects also offer similar stipends, in the Qionglan Sect, you receive one simply by joining. One portion is from the sect, and the other is from the imperial court. The Qiongyuan Civilization doesn't actually have a formal "imperial court," but it can be used as a euphemism. The highest governing body of the entire civilization is an organization similar to a parliament, with leaders from the most powerful sects serving as councilors.

Qionglan Sect is not among them, because Qionglan Sect is not powerful enough to reach that level.

While the Celestial Emperor is incredibly powerful, there is still a realm above him known as the 'Saint'. Only those who have reached that realm are qualified to step onto the highest stage of power in this civilization.

Admittedly, the First Martial Lord's strength is extremely powerful, but even such a powerful First Martial Lord is only a 'Celestial Emperor'.

For all the top martial arts masters on Earth, this place is the best paradise for their advancement.

There are countless strong individuals, enough to keep them fighting to their heart's content.

Unfortunately, only a very small number of people can enjoy this kind of thrill in battle, like him...

Cough cough, of course not, he wouldn't do that.

"Master, please teach that guy a lesson for me, the one who said he was going to kill me."

But just then, Wang Wu's voice came from behind him. Hearing this, Tian Wu paused, then turned around to look at him. "What?"

"I can't beat him, but he's planning to kill me anyway. You have to help me get revenge, Master," Wang Wu said. "Teach that guy a lesson. I think his strength is just right for you, Master, right?"

Now Tianwu understands why Wang Wu said that. It has to be said that it makes perfect sense, leaving him with no reason to refuse.

Although he wanted to, but... well, this...

"His strength is not enough to challenge me." The First Martial shook his head again. This time it wasn't that he didn't want to, but that there really wasn't a single cultivator among these people who could give him a good fight.

"Then, then let them find you one! Find one! And then hand over that guy who tried to kill me to Master Lili to deal with?"

On the first day, Wu did not answer Wang Wu, but instead looked at those people again.

After a while, he finally spoke:

"I think you heard what my apprentice said?"

Those cultivators had been silent ever since Tian Yiwu and his group arrived, though they had been trying to gather reinforcements. Now that Tian Yiwu had spoken, they knew it was time to discuss compensation.

After a few more seconds of silence, the cultivator who had initially asked Wang Wu if he had confessed his crime spoke again:

"Of course, of course."

"To express our apology, we will offer his head..."

"No, what I mean is, bring one alive." The First Martial interrupted the other party, "Bring an Immortal Emperor and me, two Immortal Lords and my two friends, and let each of us fight one battle."

"It determines superiority and inferiority, and also life and death."
