Chapter 72
[Accepting Payment from Five Immortals, A Vow to the Great Dao]
Chapter 72 [Accepting the Five Immortals, the Great Dao Oath]
Despite being the gentlest of the twelve ancestral witches, Houtu may seem harmless.
But at this moment, she was like a domineering empress, reigning supreme over the world, her dignity beyond words.
Whatever she says sounds like a decree, and you can't disobey her at all!
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yan looked as if he was about to wet himself, and hurriedly kowtowed in Su Yi's direction, saying, "I, Zhu Yan, am willing to become Su Yi's mount!"
He knew from the start that he would not have a good end.
But now, the Ancestral Witch Houtu has given him a chance to live.
I would gladly become a mount for them!
After all, there's nothing wrong with becoming Su Yi's mount.
Don't be fooled by the fact that his cultivation level is much higher than Su Yi's; he has personally witnessed how powerful these three brats are!
As everyone knows, the primordial world was a world where if one person attained enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs would ascend to heaven.
Which of those saints' mounts wasn't a quasi-saint, or even a great supernatural being who had reached the pinnacle of quasi-sainthood?
In his view, these three brats had an unusual background. Despite being just innate humans, they had the Twelve Ancestral Witches as their backers.
In addition, their talents are extraordinary!
It seems like becoming a saint is only a matter of time!
Becoming their mount is equivalent to Zhu Yan making an investment in advance.
His investment went wrong, but he was spared and allowed to barely survive.
But if he invests correctly, he will have three saints as his masters in the future!
With just these three mischievous kids, he could become the number one person below the sage in this primordial world, and even prove himself to be a sage!
Thinking about it this way, he only makes a profit and doesn't lose out!
Apart from losing his freedom and entrusting his life to his master, he lost nothing else!
Upon realizing this, Zhu Yan immediately kowtowed to the heavens, performing three deep bows, and cried out, "By the Great Dao above, I, Zhu Yan, voluntarily become the mount of Su Yi, Su Rou, and Su Chen from this day forward. In the future, I will follow their lead, and in the face of matters of great importance, I will also take the lead and vow to protect my three young masters to the death!"
"Today, I swear an oath to the Great Dao. If I break this oath, may I be struck down by heaven and earth, my body and Dao vanish, and my soul and spirit never be reunited in this life!"
Just after Zhu Yan made his vow to uphold the Great Dao.
"Rumble—"
"Rumble—"
"Rumble—"
Bolts of lightning rolled down from the sky, and faintly, one could see the Great Dao flowing through the void, sending down profound auras that rushed straight to the Niwan Palace above his head!
"Buzz—"
A profound and ethereal sound resounded throughout heaven and earth.
Immediately afterwards, those profound auras seemed to transform into a chain of order, directly binding Zhu Yan's Dao Fruit and Dao Heart, while another chain sank deep into the brows of the three mischievous children.
In an instant, Zhu Yan felt a tightness in his heart, as if he were completely bound, and even his life had been completely entrusted to someone else.
Now, he is likely to be completely destroyed without the three brats having to lift a finger, if he disobeys in the slightest, they could easily destroy him with a single thought!
Seeing this, the three mischievous children exchanged a smile, which marked a perfect end to their trip to Fangzhang Island.
Fortunately, this Zhu Yan had never eaten a human.
Otherwise, even if Su Yi wanted to take it as her mount, the other two mischievous kids would definitely not agree.
It was at this moment that Zhu Yan transformed into a human-faced ape and kowtowed to the three mischievous children!
"Zhu Yan greets his three masters!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Chen grinned and said to Su Yi, "Second Sister, nominally Zhu Yan respects the three of us as its masters, but I know you love small animals the most, so from now on, Zhu Yan will be your exclusive pet!"
Listen to this!
That's true magnanimity!
A powerful being in the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint realm was referred to as a "little animal" by Su Chen.
Even in the primordial era, this would be astonishing for ten thousand years!
A person with great supernatural powers is not like a cabbage.
Although in the primordial world now, Golden Immortals are as worthless as dogs, and Great Luo Golden Immortals are everywhere.
But if a person with great supernatural powers were to enter the mortal world, they would be the ceiling of combat power in this primordial world!
It's easy to imagine that Zhu Yan's strength is actually quite formidable!
However, Su Chen had his own reasons for saying this.
He wanted Zhu Yan to completely submit to Su Yi as his master.
After all, among those three mischievous kids...
Su Rou was born with the Primordial Dao Body, so she could learn any Dao technique very quickly. Naturally, she was unparalleled in combat power and would be the fastest among them to advance to the Hunyuan Golden Immortal realm.
And what about Su Chen?
He is proficient in crafting and possesses various spiritual treasures, making him the most balanced in both offensive and defensive capabilities among the three.
On the other hand, Su Yi, despite her mastery of the Great Dao of Formations, is far more powerful than the other two in both offense and defense.
but!
The art of formations has many limitations.
Take defending against enemies as an example. If the gap between the two sides is too large, Su Rou and Su Chen both have ways to deal with it.
But Su Yi might be killed before she can even set up the formation!
and so!
She is the one who needs someone to protect her the most.
Now, with Zhu Yan assisting Su Yi in defending against future enemies, her formation can be set up.
Therefore, she may become the most powerful of the three at present!
After understanding the deeper meaning, Su Yi was also very moved. However, since the siblings were of the same blood, there was no need to say anything more.
She made up her mind that as long as she was there, she would never let her eldest sister and third brother suffer any injustice!
At this moment, Zhu Yan understood everything. He had resigned himself to his fate and immediately kowtowed to Su Yi again, saying loyally, "Zhu Yan greets Master!"
"Master, please rest assured, as long as I, Zhu Yan, am alive, neither the First Master nor the Third Master will ever suffer any harm in front of me!"
Zhu Yan demonstrated his loyalty, and the group became happy together.
At this moment, Su Chen seemed to have thought of something, and grinned mischievously, saying, "Uncles and aunts, I've already taken all the good stuff from Fangzhang Island."
"With our current strength, we are not able to enter the other three immortal islands."
"Chen'er wishes to ask all my uncles and aunts to help me lift up this Fangzhang Immortal Island so that I can take it away, so that we can go there together to explore for treasures when we attain enlightenment!"
That's right!
From the very beginning, he had no intention of letting Fangzhang Island remain confined within the innate restrictions of the East China Sea.
and so!
He intends to move the entire Fangzhang Immortal Island into the Great Dao Storage World.
With those three unruly kids, it's impossible.
But what if the Twelve Ancestral Witches were willing to help?
Just now, it was precisely because of that immature Chaos Reincarnation Fruit that the Twelve Ancestral Witches owed a favor, and all of this came about naturally!
Only at this moment did Zhu Yan truly understand.
It turns out that the most terrifying one was this third master!
He seemed to have everything under control.
This was probably all planned from the very beginning, wasn't it?!
He was quite shocked.
But now that he is the mount of the three of them, his heart is naturally with them, and he will not tell anyone.
The Twelve Ancestral Witches were extremely pleased to hear this.
They genuinely liked the three mischievous kids.
Since Su Chen had spoken, they immediately transformed into streaks of light and entered the East Sea, working together to lift up the Fangzhang Immortal Island!
Who would have thought!
The once invincible Twelve Ancestral Witches were reduced to laborers in front of three unruly children!
This scene alone was enough to completely numb Zhu Yan!
I've chosen the right person to follow!
I've really chosen the right person to follow!
From this day forward, I, Zhu Yan, will have no other intentions!
These three little devils are amazing!!!
