Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

"Zhang Chengming of the Azure Thunder Sect..."

Listening to the discussions around him, Yu Changsheng came to understand the identity of the person in front of him.

As the most powerful sect among the six sects, the Azure Thunder Sect's disciples tend to be somewhat arrogant when facing the other five sects.

To be among the top ten in the Azure Thunder Sect, Zhang Chengming's strength was undeniable. Even so, Yu Changsheng merely chuckled inwardly, his gaze remaining calm as he looked at Zhang Chengming, his expression unchanged.

"Huh? Are you deaf? I said, this seat was reserved in advance. Get out of here, do you understand?"

Seeing that Yu Changsheng remained unmoved and ignored him, Zhang Chengming was stunned for a moment, and a hint of anger appeared on his face, his voice carrying a hint of coldness.

"That's it, what's this kid trying to prove? Zhang Chengming has already said all that. If he knows what's good for him, he should just leave. It's not shameful."

"Now, if Zhang Chengming gets angry, that kid's in for a world of hurt. He's caught in a bind, isn't he?"

Those standing by watched the scene intently, talking with great interest, remaining indifferent as if it were none of their business.

In the cultivation world, strength reigns supreme. Such unfairness is considered normal by them, so they observe it with indifference and see nothing wrong with it. They also do not stand up for Yu Changsheng and the others.

After confirming that Yu Changsheng was a member of the Myriad Manifestations Sect, their indifferent observation even reached a mocking level.

"Who doesn't know that your Myriad Manifestations Sect has long been at the bottom of the six sects? When you encounter a prodigy like Zhang Chengming from the Azure Thunder Sect, wouldn't it be better to just obediently compromise? You really don't know what's good for you."

Of course, many people also recognized Zhang Tianwen sitting next to Yu Changsheng, which made it even more interesting.

"You know what, the person sitting next to me is Zhang Tianwen, right? He was once the number one genius of the Myriad Manifestations Sect and was famous throughout the Martial Continent. It's just a pity that if his spiritual platform hadn't been shattered, Zhang Chengming might not have been able to pass by so recklessly."

"It's already a miracle he hasn't become a cripple; what makes him think he can fight Zhang Chengming?"

The news of Zhang Tianwen's spiritual recovery is now known only to a small number of people. As for others, their impression of Zhang Tianwen is still based on the past, at most the scene of Yang Chengxu's battle with Linglong Sect.

That's precisely why Zhang Chengming dared to come and provoke him like this. As for Shen Xingchen? This guy rarely makes a move within the sect, acting mysteriously. Even the sect's own disciples don't know his exact strength, let alone these outsiders.

It can be said that, apart from Yu Changsheng himself and his group, everyone else thought that Yu Changsheng was overestimating himself, so they watched this scene with great interest and did not stop him.

Among them, the people of the Spirit Dragon Sect were the most excited, and their anticipation grew even stronger as they watched this scene unfold.

While everyone was focused on Yu Changsheng, Yu Changsheng, who seemed to be terrified by Zhang Chengming, finally made a move.

But then he slowly put down his chopsticks, looked up and exhaled, glanced at Zhang Chengming, and a slow smile appeared on his lips. Then, with a flick of his right hand, the wine glass in his hand shook, and the wine mixed with Yu Changsheng's saliva flew directly onto Zhang Chengming's face.

"And who do you think you are, trying to get attention from me? Are you lacking fatherly love? I'm not your father, I can't give you any love."

Looking at Zhang Chengming, whose expression was frozen and whose body was stiff, Yu Changsheng spoke with a mocking and merciless tone, each word a deadly blow to the heart.

Zhang Chengming was completely stunned. The alcohol on his face, mixed with a strange smell, dripped down his forehead and nose.

The arrogance in his expression had vanished. After his initial jerkiness, upon hearing Yu Changsheng's words, his face flushed red, followed by a surge of boundless rage!

"You're asking for it!!"

A furious roar erupted from Zhang Chengming's mouth, shaking the entire hall. Everyone was stunned, and a commotion ensued.

"What's going on? What did this guy do?"

"He's completely finished now. He's angered Zhang Chengming. Does he not want to live anymore?"

"Wow, that's fierce! This guy, I admire him, he's a real man. If he gets beaten to death later, I'll collect his body!"

Some were astonished, looking at Yu Changsheng as if he were a fool; some were incredulous, marveling at his extraordinary talent; some praised him, while others marveled at his abilities. A diverse range of reactions unfolded, and everyone was simply watching the spectacle.

The murmurs of the crowd were like sharp blades, piercing Zhang Chengming's face and making his already unpleasant expression even more gloomy. As a renowned prodigy of the Canglei Sect, he had been pampered since childhood, and everyone treated him with utmost respect. He had never suffered such humiliation before.

So he forcibly suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, looked angrily at Yu Changsheng, gritted his teeth, and was about to say something when a loud slap swept over him, even more deafening than Zhang Chengming's roar just now.

"Snapped!"

The slap was crisp and loud. Yu Changsheng shook off Shuai's arm, looked at Zhang Chengming expressionlessly, and said calmly:

"Although I can't give you fatherly love, I won't be stingy with the slaps you love most. How about that? Is that enough? If not, I'll give you more."

Now, everyone fell completely silent, staring blankly at Yu Changsheng's actions, all with the same thought in their minds.

"He's insane! This kid is absolutely insane, he's completely reckless!"

Only a few people watched Yu Changsheng's actions without saying a word, their eyes flashing with a strange light, and they smiled slightly.

"Interesting... This guy seems to be quite something. Is he confident and fearless, or is he just incredibly arrogant...?"

Regardless of everyone's different thoughts, Yu Changsheng seemed completely indifferent at this moment. Since they had offended him, he naturally wouldn't tolerate such troublemakers.

That slap was delivered while he was holding back; otherwise, with his current physical strength, if he were to unleash his full power, he could probably smash Zhang Chengming's head in.

Zhang Chengming, meanwhile, was rubbing his swollen cheek. Completely stunned, he couldn't suppress the killing intent in his eyes any longer. With a roar, his cultivation aura exploded out of the air as he stood up and threw a fierce punch at Yu Changsheng!

"Kid, since you're courting death, you can't be allowed to live!"

Above the fist's light, blinding lightning exploded in the void, creating a powerful and awe-inspiring sound that made everyone present shudder.

"Here it comes! This time, Zhang Chengming is really serious. We're doomed!"

Those watching were stirred with emotion as they watched Zhang Chengming make his move, and immediately remarked as follows.

Although Yu Changsheng's two consecutive moves made them look at him with higher regard and were quite surprised, they admired his courage even more, but were not optimistic about his strength.

Of course, there are also those who offer calm analysis and have other perspectives.

"Not necessarily. Look at how calm he is. Where is the slightest bit of panic?"

This guy's two attacks, both so arrogant and fearless, suggest he's no ordinary character. Who knows, he might be a peerless prodigy secretly cultivated by the Myriad Manifestations Sect?

In short, everyone's attention was drawn to this initial farce, and they even forgot to eat, watching the two's every move intently, afraid of missing a single detail.

Faced with Zhang Chengming's rage, Yu Changsheng remained calm. With his current strength, if he really wanted to deal with Zhang Chengming, it would only take a moment. However, he chose a different approach.

But Yu Changsheng remained unmoved by Zhang Chengming's attack, merely shaking his head slightly and lightly slapping Zhang Chengming's face with his palm once again.

As for Zhang Chengming's attack, it hit Yu Changsheng but disappeared without a trace, without even making a ripple.

"Slap slap slap...!"

One crisp slap after another echoed through the hall, striking everyone's hearts hard.

Everyone who saw this was completely dumbfounded.

Zhang Chengming was also dizzy and disoriented. He felt as if his attacks were hitting a ball of cotton, easily neutralized and unable to cause any damage.

On the contrary, Yu Changsheng's slaps landed precisely on his face, alternating between the left and right cheeks with remarkable evenness.

Soon, Zhang Chengming's face swelled up like a pig's head, blood from his nose mixed with his teeth gushing out continuously, and his body, unable to bear the weight of each slap, collapsed forward, unable to utter a single word, only able to passively endure the beating.

"you……"

He pointed at Yu Changsheng, and before he could utter the word "you," he was slapped hard across the face again, leaving him speechless.

Yu Changsheng's attacks were all perfectly timed, each strike inflicting maximum pain on Zhang Chengming without knocking him unconscious, thus making it too easy for him.

"What do you mean, 'you'? If you ever feel you lack fatherly love, you can come back to me. But remember, you have to come on your knees. When you're begging someone, you have to act like one."

"Remember, don't bark like a dog. Not everyone is as easy to talk to as I am."

Yu Changsheng frowned, and after speaking, he delivered a final, powerful slap, slightly loosening his grip. Zhang Chengming's body was sent spinning 360 degrees in mid-air by the blow before crashing heavily to the ground.

The loud thud jolted everyone awake. They looked at Yu Changsheng, then at Zhang Chengming, who was now so wretched he was barely recognizable. A chill ran down their spines, and they stared at each other in a deathly silence.

"Chengming!"

The other three people beside Zhang Chengming also snapped out of their daze and quickly supported Zhang Chengming's body. They looked up at Yu Changsheng, their contempt gone, and gritted their teeth as they stared at Yu Changsheng.

His eyes held both anger and fear.

Yu Changsheng shook his head at this. Before he could say anything, Li Minghan stepped forward, looked at the three of them, raised an eyebrow with a grin, and said:

"What, you three aren't convinced? You want to experience a father's slap too? Come on, your second father will let you experience it. Your eldest father's hand is a little sore from slapping you for so long."

Shen Xingchen watched this scene without saying a word, but her eyes were filled with surprise as she looked at Yu Changsheng.

Zhang Tianwen and Li Minghan, on the other hand, were much calmer. Having witnessed Yu Changsheng's solo kill of the Dark Flow Golden Core cultivator in Haoyue City, they were naturally used to such things and had no worries about them.

In their view, Zhang Chengming's behavior was nothing more than that of a clown jumping around, courting death.

And now, Zhang Chengming's miserable state proves that this is indeed the case.

Everyone fell silent, watching this scene with some surprise, especially those who had previously mocked Yu Changsheng, who silently took a few steps back and shrank back.

Zhang Chengming shook his head, and with the help of his companions, he regained some clarity. Feeling the swelling pain on his face, which was covered in bruises, the killing intent in his heart turned into utter madness, overwhelming the last bit of reason in his mind. He stood up, baring his teeth and claws, and was about to rush towards Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng's gaze sharpened, and he slowly raised his fist, looking at Zhang Chengming. His blood and qi surged in his arm, and his azure energy burst forth. Then, sensing something, he relaxed, his face calm and at ease.

At that very moment, a deep, resounding voice rang out, and a figure suddenly appeared, reaching out to block Zhang Chengming's path.

"Enough! Aren't you embarrassed enough already?"

A thunderous roar erupted, its sound devoid of joy or anger, yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.

Like a thunderclap, a booming sound emanated from him, accompanied by an overwhelming pressure that seemed to tilt towards Yu Changsheng, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

"Elder Wang!"

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Zhang Chengming's face showed shame. He bowed his head respectfully, clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, and regained his composure.

The newcomer was none other than Wang Guohui, one of the elders leading the Canglei Sect this time.

As Wang Guohui appeared, everyone present fell silent. The noise subsided, and a look of respect appeared on their faces as they bowed their heads slightly.

"Peak of the Golden Core stage..."

Only Yu Changsheng looked up at Wang Guohui with narrowed eyes, feeling the intense pressure pressing down on him, and smiled slightly to himself.

"You're going to fail if you try to intimidate others with your power."

With his current cultivation level, if Wang Guohui didn't make a deliberate move and instead tried to intimidate him with the pressure of a peak Golden Core cultivator, he would clearly be miscalculating.

Wang Guohui quickly noticed this as well. Looking at Yu Changsheng, who remained calm and composed, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he let out a soft "Eh."

"Wang Guohui, why do you meddle in the affairs of the younger generation?"

Just as Wang Guohui was surprised and about to take a closer look, another voice rang out, and Lu Ruikai appeared in front of Yu Changsheng, speaking calmly to Wang Guohui. His peak Golden Core cultivation also erupted.

"Sect Leader."

As soon as Lu Ruikai appeared, Yu Changsheng, Zhang Tianwen, and the others immediately clasped their hands and bowed their heads respectfully.

"Um."

Lu Ruikai nodded, glanced back at Yu Changsheng with admiration, and with a wave of his sleeve, the oppressive aura pressing down on Yu Changsheng disappeared. He turned to look at Wang Guowei and smiled gently.

"Isn't that right, Fellow Daoist Wang?"

Wang Guohui squinted and gave Lu Ruikai a deep look. After a long while, a smile naturally appeared on his face. He nodded to Lu Ruikai and laughed heartily:

"Fellow Daoist Lu is absolutely right. It is indeed true that the younger generation should resolve their own affairs. I am also afraid that the situation will get out of control before the secret realm even begins."

"If that happens and it damages the relationship between our two families, that would be bad. Otherwise, there's nothing else to worry about."

After speaking, Wang Guohui looked at Yu Changsheng with concern, a strange glint in his eyes, and asked with concern, "Young friend, are you alright? I was a little anxious just now, but I hope I didn't frighten you?"

"No." Yu Changsheng shook his head, looked at Wang Guohui, and said softly. Then he looked at Zhang Chengming, who looked aggrieved and disheveled, his gaze sharpening as he hesitated, "It's just..."

Following Yu Changsheng's gaze, Lu Ruikai's eyes also fell on Zhang Chengming, looking at him expressionlessly.

Wang Guohui let out a soft breath, looked down at Zhang Chengming at his feet, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, reached out and patted Zhang Chengming on the head, and said indifferently:

"What are you still standing there for? Don't you want him to apologize? You're always so arrogant and look down on everyone. There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your reach."

"This is a lesson for you, and it's for the best."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chengming felt extremely aggrieved. His already flushed face turned even redder, especially with the strange looks he received from those around him, which made it even more unbearable for someone with such a strong sense of pride.

Making him apologize to Yu Changsheng, especially in front of everyone, even if he was in the wrong, is still worse than killing him.

At that moment, Yu Changsheng turned his head and looked at Zhang Chengming with a half-smile.

"puff……"

A mouthful of blood suddenly spurted from the corner of Zhang Chengming's mouth. In the end, whether from pain or anger, he fainted, his head lolling to the side.

"This guy's mental fortitude isn't great either."

Seeing this, Yu Changsheng shook his head, muttered to himself, and didn't press the matter further. He clasped his hands and bowed slightly to Wang Guohui, saying, "There's no need for an apology. I just hope you won't be angry, senior. I was forced to do this."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guohui's face stiffened for a moment, then he looked at Yu Changsheng, nodded, and gave a warm smile: "What a sensible disciple. Not bad, your Myriad Elephant Sect has produced a good disciple."

The following sentence was said to Lu Ruikai.

Lu Ruikai nodded calmly. Having said that, he didn't press the matter further. He gently patted Yu Changsheng's shoulder, left with the words "Call me if you need anything," and took the lead in leaving.

If Wang Guohui hadn't intervened today, he wouldn't have shown up and would have let Yu Changsheng handle things.

As Lu Ruikai left, Wang Guohui paused, then gave Yu Changsheng a meaningful look before looking down at the unconscious Zhang Chengming. A hint of disappointment crossed his face. He lightly kicked Zhang Chengming, gave him a cold snort, and then instructed the three disciples following Zhang Chengming:

"Take him away to recuperate, then have him write a 100,000-word self-criticism and work in the sect's miscellaneous goods hall for a season. That's how this matter will end."

After saying that, Wang Guohui waved his sleeve and went back to the top-floor room on the fourth floor without looking back.

Wang Guohui was helpless in this situation. Zhang Chengming was in the wrong first, and more importantly, Yu Changsheng's move was too well-executed. While Zhang Chengming lost face, his injuries looked terrible, but were actually not serious.

He only needs to rest for a while and he will naturally recover. To put it bluntly, although Yu Changsheng kept slapping him, the attack power was zero, but the insult was full of meaning. The real injury was just Zhang Chengming coughing up blood when he was so angry.

Therefore, Wang Guohui had no right to say anything about Yu Changsheng's actions, nor did he have any reason to.

As the two elders from each family left, the previously quiet crowd gradually erupted into noise once more.

This time, however, everyone's gaze towards Yu Changsheng changed, from disdain to solemnity.

From Zhang Chengming's initial move to his current state, Yu Changsheng has truly shattered their expectations.

"Interesting. This kind of person shouldn't be so low-key. I can investigate him properly later. It seems that this trip to the secret realm is going to be much more exciting."

"I never expected that the Myriad Manifestations Sect would have such a disciple. Judging from Zhang Chengming's appearance, he is probably careless and doesn't take this seriously at all."

"Yu Changsheng...we can keep an eye on him."

Among the crowd, the leaders of each sect looked at Yu Changsheng from afar, each with their own thoughts. In the end, they smiled faintly, a flash of fighting spirit passing through their eyes.

Yu Changsheng didn't care about what was happening around him. He simply glanced around and those who saw him immediately fell silent.

Finally, his gaze fell on Zhang Chengming, who was still unconscious. He shook his head and smiled slightly, not revealing the fact that the other party had already woken up, and let his companions carry him back to the room.

Yu Changsheng sat down again, smiled slightly at Zhang Tianwen and the other two, and drank his wine in one gulp.

"Well done, Changsheng. This kind of trash deserves to be thoroughly humiliated. It's so satisfying! Absolutely satisfying."

Li Minghan clinked glasses with Yu Changsheng, gave Yu Changsheng a thumbs-up, and chuckled as he spoke.

"It's nothing, just minor issues."

Yu Changsheng waved his hand dismissively and ate with the others. The others gradually withdrew their gazes from the scene, their eyes gleaming with different thoughts.

Many disciples even took the initiative to raise their wine cups, walk up to Yu Changsheng, clink glasses with him, and chat before returning home.

In the world of cultivation, only the strong have a voice, and Yu Changsheng's strength naturally aroused their desire to befriend and get to know him.

In contrast, Yu Changsheng accepted all offers without hesitation, smiling faintly as he returned them one by one, gaining a considerable understanding of the identities of these people.

Soon, the little incident passed, until the curtain in the stage was pulled open to both sides, the full moon hung high above the inn's dome, moonlight poured down like water, and graceful figures appeared on the stage, while heavenly music flowed slowly.

It transformed into ripples, spreading through everyone's hearts, causing them to tremble and turn their gazes in unison. (End of Chapter)
