Yun Ting looked up and saw an old man holding a Dragon Head Cane, clad in a yellow robe. He had an imposing, dignified bearing; among all the mighty figures Yun Ting had encountered these days, only his second uncle Yuanshi surpassed him in majesty. Yet the bump Yun Ting had given him added a touch of comedy to his appearance.
Then, he silently recited in his heart, Retrieve his information.
[East King Duke] [Cultivation: Quasi-Saint Initial] [Traits: Emperor Dong Hua (Purple), Head of Male Immortals (Purple), Yin-Yang Harmony (Purple), Lord of Dawn (Red), Eternal Emperor (Red), Spirit of Ten Thousand Trees (Gold), Dao Follows Nature (Gold)] [Affinity: -20. You just gave him a prominent bump on his head. Don't expect him to think kindly of you.]
Seeing the system prompt, Yun Ting was speechless. This is bad. I'm afraid this won't end peacefully... He hurriedly said, "Immortal elder, one look at you and it's clear you're a man of outstanding stature, a reclusive expert beyond this world. You wouldn't hold a grudge against a child like me, would you?"
East King Duke flew into a rage. "You brat, you still have the nerve to say that? You caused this bump on my head! At such a young age, you don't even watch where you're going when flying on clouds... Outrageous! I don't know which bastard's child you are, but you have no upbringing at all."
The moment those words left his mouth, Yun Ting refused to take it lying down. He shouted, "So what if I hit you? I'm Sect Leader Tongtian's own son! Who the hell are you? How dare you call my father a bastard? Calling my father a bastard is the same as calling my eldest and second uncles bastards, and calling my eldest and second uncles bastards is the same as calling Pangu a bastard! You can't bear that karma. ╭(╯^╰)╮"
East King Duke sneered coldly. "I am the Head of Male Immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor. Even if your father came, he would not dare do anything to me. You offended my cloud today, so you must give me an explanation."
Yun Ting did not have a good temper either. He directly took out the protective treasure sword Tong Tian had refined for him, unleashed all its sword qi, and infused it with that strand of Primordial Sword Qi. He slashed out with a single stroke. "You want an explanation? Fine, take one sword strike from me. If you can't even defeat a child like me, then forget about demanding an explanation." As he spoke, he swung his sword. Sword light flashed as it shot straight toward East King Duke.
On Mount Kunlun, Tong Tian sensed that Yun Ting had pushed his sword qi to its limit. His expression changed drastically. Big Brother, Second Brother, Yun Ting is in danger. I'm going out there.
Yuanshi stroked his chin. "Let's go together, let's go together." Laozi and Yuanshi followed Tong Tian toward Mount Wuyi. As soon as they arrived, they saw East King Duke forcibly shatter Yun Ting's sword qi with the Dragon Head Cane, then strike Yun Ting from the sky with a single blow.
Tong Tian's face darkened instantly. The Qingping Sword moved in his hand, and a streak of azure sword light slashed directly at East King Duke.
East King Duke was shocked. "Tong Tian, I am the Head of Male Immortals personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor. How dare you attack me?"
With his son already injured, how could Tong Tian care about anything else? He directly increased his mana output and slashed at East King Duke. Meanwhile, Yuanshi carried Yun Ting over to Laozi and said, "Big Brother, Yun Ting was injured by the Dragon Force of the Dragon Head Cane... His primordial spirit has been damaged. Only a Nine Revolutions Primordial Soul Pill can save him."
Hearing this, Laozi took out a small bottle and fed him a Nine Revolutions Primordial Soul Pill. Before long, Yun Ting woke up and saw East King Duke and Tong Tian fighting in midair. East King Duke no longer looked as imposing as when they had first met; Tong Tian's sword qi had sliced his robes apart again and again, and his golden robe was nearly reduced to beggar's rags.
Seeing Yun Ting awaken, Laozi said to him, "Quick, persuade your father to stop. The Dao Ancestor's second lecture is about to begin. If he really kills East King Duke, it will be difficult to answer to our teacher. By the way, how did you end up fighting East King Duke?"
Yun Ting pouted, looking as though he were about to cry. "When I used Earth-Traversing Golden Light to return to Kunlun, I didn't watch where I was going and accidentally hit him. Then he called me an asshole and said he didn't know which bastard's child I was. I got angry and fought him. Then I lost, and this is what happened."
The moment Yuanshi heard that, he was displeased. The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi appeared in his hand as he said, "East King Duke, you are at least an innate mighty figure. How can you bully a child? Take a strike from my jade ruyi." With that, he directly drove the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi into East King Duke's head.
East King Duke was completely enraged. He cursed, "It was one thing for Tong Tian to attack, but now you, Yuanshi, are joining in too? Do you really think I became Head of Male Immortals for nothing?" Then he shouted, "Dao Ancestor, look at this! The Three Pure Ones are relying on their powerful mana to bully me, the Head of Male Immortals. They have no respect for you at all!"
Laozi stroked his beard. "This East King Duke is becoming more childish with age. He can't win, so he is crying to our teacher... Yun Ting, call your father and second uncle back. The second lecture is about to begin. Don't stir up further trouble."
Yun Ting nodded. East King Duke, is it? You're dead. The Three Pure Ones are Hongjun's disciples, so it isn't convenient for them to act. Later, I'll join the demon race and play with Taiyi and the others if I have to, just to kill you.
Then he ran into the air and said, "Father, Second Uncle, the Dao Ancestor's lecture will begin soon. Let's not offend him for now." Then he asked the system, "System, can you help me copy another trait of East King Duke, like you did with Zhunti? I know my cultivation isn't high enough yet. Count it as something I owe you; my cultivation will definitely rise to the point where I can extract his traits in the future."
Inside the system space, A Certain Lady was speechless. If I let you do that, wouldn't you be able to extract them whenever you wanted? Dream on. No way. Then she replied directly, "No, there are no extraction chances left. However, I can give you one chance to modify something. You can only change one character."
Yun Ting immediately nodded and changed Eternal Emperor to Short-lived Emperor. He then discovered that the trait's red color had turned black. He laughed wildly in his heart. You still want to be an Eternal Emperor? Just wait. After the second lecture, I'll head straight to the Sun Star and invite the Golden Crow Brothers to establish the Demon Court. How many Grand Unity Golden Immortals do you even have under your command, East King Duke? Once the Demon Court is established, you're dead.
"Ding. You may only modify it once. If you want to modify traits again, you must wait until your cultivation surpasses the other party's," the system prompted. Yet inwardly, she thought, Modifying traits means altering fate. It's even more exhausting than copying them. If I let you modify them as you pleased, wouldn't I be worked to death?
