Chaotic Heart Forest (Part 1)

Chapter Thirteen: Chaotic Heart Forest (Part 1)

However, this time, the younger generation disciples of the Nine Sacred Demon Gate gathered together, their emotions surging. It was unknown how many of them were filled with rage, especially when they saw Li Qiye appear, their eyes spewing fire.

"Kill him! The ignorant fool, how dare he come to my Nine Sacred Demon Gate and act so presumptuously!" a disciple roared.

Another disciple said sternly, "Killing him is too good for him! Break his limbs, tie him up, and light the sky lantern with him! He insulted my Nine Sacred Demon Gate, and dying ten thousand times wouldn't be enough!"

"Light the sky lantern? That's too merciful! Our Nine Sacred Demon Gate governs the Ancient Niu Jiang Kingdom and deters the Central Region. How dare a mere ant speak such arrogant words and insult our princess! We should trap him on Eagle-Plucking Cliff, let the eagles peck at him for a hundred years, let him howl on Eagle-Plucking Cliff for a hundred years, let him suffer on Eagle-Plucking Cliff for a hundred years, and wash Eagle-Plucking Cliff with his blood for a hundred years!" another disciple roared even louder.

"Not only do we need to kill this little beast, but we also need to trample the Washing Yan Ancient Sect!" a disciple shrieked.

For a time, shouts of killing echoed across a vast area. The crowd was furious, and some disciples even wished they could rush forward and tear Li Qiye to shreds! Li Qiye's words had insulted their Nine Sacred Demon Gate's princess and even threatened to destroy their Nine Sacred Demon Gate. This made them hate Li Qiye to the bone, wishing they could dismember his corpse and scatter his bones. They wanted to let the world know that the divine might of their Nine Sacred Demon Gate could not be challenged!

Whether it was Protector Mo or Nan Huairen, they couldn't help but shiver inwardly. If the protectors of the Nine Sacred Demon Gate spoke up, the disciples of the Nine Sacred Demon Gate would likely tear Li Qiye to shreds.

A wave of killing shouts washed over them. The rage of the Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples threatened to drown everything, but Li Qiye walked out leisurely, completely unfazed, as if he were strolling through a garden. This was incredibly arrogant and presumptuous!

Although Protector Mo and Nan Huairen both believed Li Qiye was insane, hopelessly ignorant and arrogant, at this moment, they couldn't help but admire his courage. In the face of such a furious crowd and the anger of so many Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples, anyone else would have been paralyzed with fear, let alone walking out so leisurely.

"Cough—" Just then, the Chief Protector Yu He coughed. His gentle cough exploded like divine thunder, instantly suppressing all the shouts of killing! An endless aura of royalty pressed down, making it difficult for everyone to breathe.

With the Chief Protector speaking, the disciples dared not act recklessly and quieted down. However, the countless gazes that could spew fire were enough to drown Li Qiye. If gazes could kill, Li Qiye would have died countless times over!

"If you can pass this assessment, the two sects will be united in marriage according to the ancestral teachings! If you cannot pass, or if you lose your life, you can only blame your lack of skill!" Protector Xu said coldly, his eyes like sharp knives fixed on Li Qiye.

Protector Xu was naturally very displeased with Li Qiye. As a protector, he was unwilling to make a move against Li Qiye, but if he could, he wouldn't mind crushing this arrogant and ignorant ant!

Li Qiye sat down on the seat with his legs spread wide, then slowly glanced at Protector Xu, smiled, and shook his head, saying, "I can only say that your Nine Sacred Demon Gate is far inferior to its former glory! Why did your Nine Sacred Great Sage make this promise back then? Why did your Nine Sacred Demon Gate intend to form a marriage alliance with the Washing Yan Ancient Sect back then? Back then, the Washing Yan Ancient Sect was revered by the world, and the Nine Regions bowed to it. Your Nine Sacred Demon Gate merely sought the shelter of the Washing Yan Ancient Sect and pursued a better overall situation."

Li Qiye was too lazy to delve into the past matters because his condition was not very stable back then. The Nine Sacred Demon Gate's intention to form a marriage alliance with the Washing Yan Ancient Sect was not entirely the will of the Nine Sacred Great Sage and Immortal Emperor Mingren, but rather the proposal of the disciples of both sides.

Speaking of this, Li Qiye glanced at Protector Xu and said, "The times have changed now, so you are going back on your promise. It seems you are getting worse with each generation!"

"Hmph—" Protector Xu snorted coldly and said in a stern voice, "You yourself said the times have changed! If you talk about getting worse with each generation, that would be your Washing Yan Ancient Sect! Today, the Nine Sacred Demon Gate governs a kingdom, and there are more than one or two great kingdoms and imperial lineages seeking a marriage alliance. My Nine Sacred Demon Gate's princess is not someone a useless straw bag can be worthy of!"

To insult the Washing Yan Ancient Sect in front of all the disciples made Protector Mo and Nan Huairen feel uncomfortable. However, power dictated terms, and what Protector Xu said was also the truth; the Washing Yan Ancient Sect today could not compare to the Nine Sacred Demon Gate!

"Let the past be the past. Bickering won't change anything!" Chief Protector Yu He spoke, saying coldly, "My Nine Sacred Demon Gate is giving the Washing Yan Ancient Sect a chance precisely because we uphold the promise of the past! If you are timid and wish to withdraw now, my Nine Sacred Demon Gate will not make things difficult for you, and the promise of the past will be void!"

"Since I'm already here, let's have the challenge," Li Qiye said leisurely. "I wonder how you plan to assess us? Bring it on, I'll accompany you!"

"Ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth!" Protector Xu snorted coldly! As for the Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples present, they glared at Li Qiye even more fiercely.

"A waste who only cultivates martial skills dares to speak so boastfully, the ignorant fool!" some disciples said indignantly. If the protectors weren't present, they would have beaten Li Qiye to death!

"Your cultivation is still shallow, and our Highness has also given instructions to give you a chance. The first round will be a written test, the second round a talent and martial test! As for the third round..." the Chief Protector said.

"Two rounds are enough," Li Qiye interrupted Yu He, "Tell me, how will the written test and the martial test be conducted?"

"Presumptuous—" Protector Xu roared in anger at Li Qiye's arrogance, his imposing aura surging like a tidal wave, pressing down on Li Qiye.

"What, you want to make a move before the test even begins?" Li Qiye narrowed his eyes, staring at Protector Xu.

At this moment, Chief Protector Yu He coughed, interrupting Protector Xu's tidal wave-like aura. This made Protector Xu glare at Li Qiye. Such an arrogant and ignorant brat, he could crush him with a single finger. When did it become the turn of such an ant to jump around in front of him!

"The written test is very simple: enter the Chaotic Heart Forest. Whoever can go further wins. As for the martial test, it's even easier: a decisive battle! There are three rounds of assessment, and as long as you win two rounds, the two sects can form a marriage alliance!" Yu He said slowly, his gaze piercing.

"Good, that's straightforward. Let's test," Li Qiye said, not being polite. He stood up and said, "Whether it's a written test or a martial test, let me see how capable your princess is!"

"Pah—" At this moment, Xu Hui said disdainfully, "With you? You're not qualified for Senior Sister Li to personally make a move! Dealing with a waste like you is more than enough for me!"

Yu He also nodded and said, "I've heard that you only joined the Washing Yan Ancient Sect not long ago, so my Nine Sacred Demon Gate is not bullying you too much! If our Highness were to personally make a move within my Nine Sacred Demon Gate, I'm afraid you wouldn't even have a chance to appear! In my Nine Sacred Demon Gate, in terms of talent, our Highness is the best. In terms of strength among the younger generation, the Chief Disciple Nephew Leng is the best. Whether it's either of them assessing you, I'm afraid you wouldn't be convinced even if you lost. Junior Nephew Xu has average to above-average talent within my Nine Sacred Demon Gate. With his strength, assessing the Chief Disciple of the Washing Yan Ancient Sect would not be an insult to your status!"

The Nine Sacred Demon Gate not sending their strongest disciples to be the gatekeepers could be considered the Nine Sacred Demon Gate leaving a sliver of hope for the Washing Yan Ancient Sect. If Li Shuangyan herself had made a move, or if the Nine Sacred Demon Gate's strongest Chief Disciple had made a move, let alone the Chief Disciple of the Washing Yan Ancient Sect, even the elders or the sect master of the Washing Yan Ancient Sect would have been defeated without a doubt!

Li Qiye didn't even bother to look at Xu Hui's provocation. He only looked at Yu He and then nodded seriously, saying slowly, "So, your Nine Sacred Demon Gate still has some hope. Although you've gone back on your promise, you haven't completely lost face and still maintain a bit of decorum. Very well, you leave an inch, and I'll give you a foot, so you can't say I'm bullying your Nine Sacred Demon Gate!"

Li Qiye's boastful words made Protector Mo and Nan Huairen blush with embarrassment. They wished they could dig a hole and crawl into it. They wanted to beg Li Qiye, "Great Lord Li, speaking a little less boastfully won't kill you!"

"To be ignorant to such an extent is truly pathetic!" At this moment, the angry Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples were both furious and amused.

Some Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples were also both angry and resentful. Someone sneered, "The Washing Yan Ancient Sect has not only declined but has also gone mad, actually letting a lunatic be their Chief Disciple. Heh, is this still an immortal sect and imperial lineage? It's truly a disgrace to their eighteen generations of ancestors!"

Many angry Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples couldn't help but burst into laughter. Li Qiye's blind arrogance was not only ignorance but also madness!

The mockery from all the Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples made Protector Mo and Nan Huairen unable to lift their heads, not even daring to meet anyone's gaze.

Protector Xu sneered. Such ignorant ants were truly pathetic. someone like Yu He, who had seen countless storms, now looked at Li Qiye as if he were seeing a monster. He couldn't imagine how someone could be so ignorant. What a useless straw bag! Even a straw bag wouldn't be this ignorant.

Did the Li Qiye in front of him not know how powerful the Nine Sacred Demon Gate was? Did he have no concept of strength? This made Yu He feel amused. Today, he had truly met an ultimate ignoramus.

Finally, Yu He collected himself, coughed, and said, "Let's start with the written test. Enter the Chaotic Heart Forest, and whoever goes further wins!"

Seeing the assessment begin, everyone couldn't help but move towards the Chaotic Heart Forest. For a time, the outer perimeter of the Chaotic Heart Forest was filled with countless Nine Sacred Demon Gate disciples.
