Pulled a Big Banner Right onto the Real Deal? Damn It, He Wants to Beat Me Up Offline!

The moment his real name was called out, Chen Yi's brain instantly crashed.

Asking whether I knew Tribulation Master Venerable Chen Yi?

How could I not know myself?

Was that a jab at me?

Someone who could expose his real name through online chat alone... it seemed he had kicked an iron plate.

One had to know that everyone in the chat group used online handles and nicknames. Even group masters had no authority to view members' private information, much less other group masters in the public zone.

So what method had this Group 98 Master used to dig up his identity?

Could he be some Supreme Mighty Being capable of seeing through all karmic ties across the Myriad Worlds?

Or perhaps a master of the Dao of Fate whose deduction arts had reached the pinnacle?

Hey, screw your uncle! Was this still a Newbie Chat Group?!

He had thought being dragged into a Newbie Chat Group only after reaching the Tribulation Transcendence stage already made him one of a kind—like scorpion shit, the sole specimen—but there was actually an even greater expert?

Looking at it this way, his reading without replying had not been an act. He truly had the strength to back it up. Instead, it was Chen Yi who had been thoughtless?

No, that wasn't right!

After calming down, Chen Yi felt that something was off.

If the Group 98 Master really were that kind of Supreme Mighty Being, then his group level should not have been so low. Even less should he have remained so modest and courteous when faced with Chen Yi's brazen questioning.

Great powers had the bearing of great powers. The majesty of great powers could not be offended!

He must have been... putting on a mystifying act?

For example, perhaps this person had also transmigrated to the Ziwei Continent. After seeing the three first lines Chen Yi had left behind, he had learned that Chen Yi was also a transmigrator.

Then, he boldly guessed that Chen Yi had joined this chat group. Combined with Chen Yi's distinctive nickname, he figured out that Chen Yi was the one speaking to him, and used that to intimidate him into backing off in the face of difficulty?

Mm, that was very likely the truth!

The shift in his attitude—from modest with a hint of humility at first, to suddenly standing tall later—also proved this!

But better safe than sorry!

What if the Group 98 Master really was one of those shameless great powers who loved playing the pig to eat the tiger and had a taste for wicked fun?

To be safe, Chen Yi decided to soften his attitude for now and probe him.

TMD The Immortal Ascension Tribulation is Still Chasing Me (Group 108 Master): What Tribulation Master Venerable? Don't feed me that useless crap. Tell me, why did you read my messages without replying? What are you putting on airs for?!

"Hmph, so arrogant? Does he really think he's invincible?" Mu Chen's gaze darkened, and he immediately began his performance.

Back to All Beings (Group 98 Master): So what do you want? I can tell you that Tribulation Master Venerable Chen Yi's group nickname is 'Tribulation Heaven Venerable.' If you don't know him, open the second-level page of the Myriad Worlds Mall and search for reputable merchants from Group One. I have a fairly good personal relationship with him.

Chen Yi: ...

Confirmed. This guy was an idiot!

He had originally seemed rather shrewd and calculating, but now it appeared... he simply could not calculate at all!

TMD The Immortal Ascension Tribulation is Still Chasing Me (Group 108 Master): So, according to you, you have a pretty good personal relationship with Tribulation Master Venerable? Are you sure?

Seeing the other party's attitude soften, Mu Chen's suspended heart slowly settled.

Back to All Beings: Believe it or not, but I can apologize for the rudeness of reading without replying earlier. I hope you can be magnanimous.

Naturally, apologies differed under different circumstances.

Before he had raised the great banner of 'Tribulation Heaven Venerable,' the other party had been pressing him relentlessly. He had not even known what price he would have to pay to earn forgiveness.

But once he raised that banner, no matter how dissatisfied the other party was, he would have to sheathe his edge!

However, Mu Chen had no idea how ridiculous this self-clever little trick was when played before the real person himself.

It nearly made Chen Yi laugh out loud!

TMD The Immortal Ascension Tribulation is Still Chasing Me (Group 108 Master): How come I don't know about that? Oh, right, I'm Chen Yi. You also transmigrated to the Ziwei Continent, didn't you? Are you coming to find me yourself, or should I come find you?

Mu Chen: ???

Holy shit!

Wait a second!

My head is a little messed up right now!

You're Chen Yi?!

Tribulation Control Venerable Chen Yi?!

You're joking, right?!

That old fossil Chen Yi transmigrated eight hundred years ago. How could he possibly be in a newly created Newbie Group like Group 108?!

You must be joking, right... right?

Mu Chen was on the verge of tears.

He really wanted to deceive himself, but unfortunately, he simply could not do it!

After all, the other party had even named the Ziwei Continent. It would be impolite to keep spouting nonsense.

But he really did not want to go see Chen Yi!

If the other party were the 'Tribulation Heaven Venerable' he had guessed, it would be fine. After all, he was an old hand from Group One. At most, going to find him would cost Mu Chen some inconsequential things; he would not bleed heavily.

But Chen Yi was the group master of a Newbie Group, the sort of group that was like a newly founded company!

Mu Chen had come up from being a Newbie himself, so he naturally knew what was most lacking at this stage!

Would he get anything good from going to see him?

He would not even believe it himself if Chen Yi did not skin him alive!

For over thirty years, he had worked diligently and conscientiously. Only with great difficulty had he developed Group 98 to its current scale, managing more than fifty capable members. Every day, he had them grind missions for each other, while hundreds of thousands of points rolled into his account without him lifting a finger. His carefree days of sitting like a boss...

Were they going to vanish forever?!

"No! I absolutely refuse to work for someone else, even if he's Chen Yi!"

"Bragging online is one thing, but you want to beat me up offline too? Dream on!"

The more Mu Chen thought about it, the more his heart ached. He directly closed the private chat window, then wickedness rose in his heart. He blacklisted Chen Yi and immediately went offline, giving him no chance to find him!

On the other side.

Looking at the gray avatar of the Group 98 Master, no longer flashing, Chen Yi's lips suddenly curled. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. I was originally a little embarrassed to make a move against a fellow villager from the same world, but aren't you just handing me the knife yourself? Why go to such lengths?"

"Playing hide-and-seek with me on the Ziwei Continent—you really don't know the height of heaven or the depth of earth!"

"Hehe... Ziwei, are you there?"

Chen Yi smiled calmly and lightly tapped the ground, directly summoning the Heavenly Dao of this world.

Soon, a vast and ethereal voice rang out from the void.

"I am here. What are your orders?"

As the only person in this world to undergo tribulation, survive eighty-one direct clashes against the Tribulation Transcendence, suppress the foundational laws as the most important stabilizing pillar, and serve as the greatest hope of leading the Ziwei Continent back to the status of the Pseudo-Immortal Realm, Chen Yi carried immense weight in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao!

It might not grant his every request, but if he wanted, the Ziwei Heavenly Dao could even take whatever shape he desired.

"Find someone for me!" Chen Yi said calmly, slowly raising three fingers.

"First, their Primordial Spirit True Spirit does not bear the aura of reincarnation from this world!"

"Second, the spiritual qi of this world they consume does not match their cultivation!"

"Third, they repeatedly vanish from this world for a period of time before reappearing!"

Having received clear information, the Ziwei Heavenly Dao immediately began operating.

"Please wait. Searching according to your conditions..."

"A total of nine living beings matching the conditions have been found: three from the Demon Race, four humans, and two from the Insect Race."

"The corresponding coordinates have been marked. After you find the target you seek, if it is convenient, could you also help verify whether the other eight living beings are reincarnations of the Outer Realm Demon Race?"
