Dijiang Makes a Move

Tai Yi's smile remained unchanged. Just as he was about to offer a defense, a clear yet mocking female voice cut in:

"Explain? Restraint? Fellow Daoist Fuxi, you think too highly of this simpering bird."

Rosy clouds swirled as Chang Xi, arm in arm with Xi He, appeared.

She still had a loli's figure, but now she tilted her chin up, casting a trash-like gaze at Tai Yi.

"Sister, look, it's this flat-feathered bird that dreams all day and struts around. It even came to the Lunar Star before, making a racket."

Her voice was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.

"Tai Yi, listen closely. My sister, Xi He, is pure of heart and dislikes worldly disturbances. She certainly looks down on frivolous individuals like you!"

"If you dare to approach the Lunar Star even half a step, or spread any indecent words..."

A cold glint flashed in Chang Xi's eyes, and the Lunar Star's moonlight condensed into a bone-chilling coldness at her fingertips.

"I wouldn't mind letting you taste what it's like to be permanently frozen in the Lunar Frost Abyss. It would make a fine decoration for Sister's Osmanthus tree."

Although Xi He didn't speak, her cool, clear face clearly displayed the word "disdain." She gently linked arms with Chang Xi, their posture intimate, making some onlookers' gazes complex.

Tai Yi's smile finally faltered.

Being lectured by Fuxi was one thing, but being publicly humiliated like this by Chang Xi, a mere slip of a girl, especially after he had just tried to "show off his strength"!

"Fellow Daoist Chang Xi, why must you wound with words?" Tai Yi suppressed his anger.

"I have only met Fellow Daoist Xi He a few times, what entanglement could there be? Rather, your protection of your sister..."

"None of your damn business!"

Chang Xi interrupted directly, rolling her eyes.

"What business is it of yours, an outsider, regarding my sister and me? Hurry back to your Solar Star and hatch your eggs!"

"Hahahaha!"

Among the onlookers, someone couldn't help but laugh first, which then sparked a wave of chuckles.

Tai Yi's face flickered between green and white. True Lord Li Huo and the others felt considerably more satisfied.

It seemed Tai Yi had offended quite a few people, for even the two goddesses of the Lunar Star loathed him this much.

However, before Tai Yi could retort or Chang Xi could continue her tirade.

An even more overbearing, violent, and oppressive aura of malevolence descended upon the entire East Sea coast without warning!

Space rippled violently like water.

A tall, burly figure with coiled muscles, as if emerging from an ancient, wild era, stepped through the void and appeared above everyone.

He was bare-chested, clad in beast hide below, his long hair unbound, his face rugged. As his eyes opened and closed, it seemed as if sun and moon revolved, and time flowed.

Merely standing there caused the surrounding space to freeze and laws to retreat!

"Dijiang... Ancestor Witch Dijiang?!" someone exclaimed in shock.

The newcomer was none other than the leader of the Twelve Ancestor Witches, the Ancestor Witch of Space and Speed, Dijiang!

Dijiang paid no attention to Fuxi, Chang Xi, nor True Lord Li Huo and the others.

His eyes, which seemed capable of swallowing everything, locked directly onto Tai Yi below. He bared his white teeth in a grin, but the smile was chillingly cold.

"I've been looking for you for ages. So you were hiding here, you mongrel bird."

His voice rumbled like muffled thunder, making people's blood churn.

"You've got some nerve, daring to tease my sister?"

"What?!"

This statement shocked everyone present, even Fuxi and Chang Xi were stunned.

Teasing an Ancestor Witch? Houtu? Or Xuanming? Was Tai Yi insane?!

Tai Yi himself was bewildered: "Ancestor Witch Dijiang, what are you talking about? I have never..."

"Bullshit!"

Dijiang spat, his voice like a surging tide.

"I heard you bragging to that wild rabbit spirit, saying things like 'Ancestor Witches may have terrifying true forms, but they have a different charm after transforming.'"

"'Houtu is gentle and graceful, Xuanming is cold and alluring. If only I could get close to them'..." I can't even be bothered to repeat the rest of that filthy talk!"

"Dare to do it but not admit it? Bah!"

Dijiang's words were like thunderclaps, searing everyone to the core.

Gazes once again focused on Tai Yi, but this time the emotions within them were no longer contempt or anger.

Instead, there was profound shock, disbelief, and... a hint of bizarre admiration?

True Lord Li Huo's mouth hung open. He looked at Tai Yi, then at the murderous Dijiang, and after a long pause, managed to utter:

If you find this book to your liking, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.

"Fellow Daoist Tai Yi... your appetite... is truly... astonishing."

Even the Ancestor Witch is something you dare to fantasize about? And two at once?

You're invincible...

Chang Xi was also stunned.

Is this how fierce fellow practitioners are?

She subconsciously hugged Xi He's arm tighter and murmured, "Sister, this guy... is there something wrong with him here?"

She pointed to her head.

Xi He nodded in deep agreement, looking at Tai Yi as if he were unrecoverable chaotic garbage.

Fuxi put his hand on his forehead, feeling that his attempt to mediate just now was a bit superfluous.

What reason could there be to reason with a lunatic who even dared to covet Ancestor Witches?

Tai Yi was speechless, his face turning green.

Although he did have feelings for Houtu and Xuanming, when had he ever said such things to anyone?!

That's it! It must be his third brother, Qin Yuan, who is always appearing and disappearing and spreading rumors everywhere.

That guy is definitely sent by the Heavenly Dao to harm him!

"Ancestor Witch Dijiang, this is slander! Someone is framing me!" Tai Yi said anxiously.

"Framing?"

Dijiang let out a sinister laugh, stretched his neck, and it made cracking sounds like popping beans.

"I don't care if you're being framed or not! Hearing words like that makes me unhappy! Very unhappy!"

"Coincidentally, all you scoundrels are here today, and I'm in a bad mood, so I'll stretch my muscles!"

Before he finished speaking, Dijiang moved!

There were no divine powers or magical treasures, just a simple step forward, and space folded and compressed beneath his feet.

The next moment, his fist, which seemed capable of crushing stars, appeared before True Lord Li Huo!

"Not good!" True Lord Li Huo only had time to summon his natal magical treasure, the Li Huo Cover.

Crack!

The Li Huo Cover shattered like paper. True Lord Li Huo let out a scream, an unknown number of his ribs broken. He turned into a streak of fire, spitting blood as he flew backward, disappearing to some unknown corner of the East Sea.

"This isn't the power of a Grand Unity!"

Hermit Qing Mu and the others were horrified and fought desperately.

However, in front of Dijiang, who had already stepped into the Hun Yuan Golden Immortal realm and whose physical body was unparalleled in the Great Desolation, what was the difference between a Grand Unity and an ant?

Dijiang didn't even use any spatial divine powers. Relying solely on his terrifying physical strength and speed, each punch, kick, elbow, and knee strike was accompanied by clear bone-cracking sounds and screams.

Bai Xiao Sheng's Mountain River Seal was smashed by his punch.

Hermit Qing Mu's myriad spirit roots were crushed by his kick.

The other cultivators who came to help were scattered like fallen leaves in a strong wind. In an instant, the group that had been so aggressive moments ago was lying on the ground, disheveled and groaning incessantly.

Fuxi frowned, his Eight Trigrams Array protecting him. He did not intervene, merely watching Dijiang with a solemn expression.

Had he already broken through to the Hun Yuan Golden Immortal realm?

The other Ancestor Witches would probably be able to break through soon... At that time, the Great Desolation would truly be ruled by the Witch Clan.

Chang Xi also pulled Xi He and retreated far away, her small face full of shock.

She was always close to Xi He, and the rewards she received could support her breakthrough to the Hun Yuan Golden Immortal realm.

But she had exchanged them for all sorts of spiritual treasures to protect her sister Xi He.

Moreover, breaking through to the Hun Yuan Golden Immortal realm at this point in time would very likely attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao and arouse Xi He's suspicion.

But now the Ancestor Witches were starting to break through to the Hun Yuan Golden Immortal realm...

No, after returning this time, she had to frantically stack up cultivation rewards!

Dijiang quickly dealt with most of the Great Desolation's mighty figures present, but he didn't kill any of them.

Then, his gaze fell upon Tai Yi, the only one still standing in the field.

Tai Yi's golden flames burned to their limit, the Chaos Bell floated above his head, and his expression was extremely grim.

He had not yet broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm, and he had no chance of winning against Dijiang.

However, running away, such a thing that would cause a Transmigrator to lose face, he would never do!

With so many female cultivators from the Great Desolation present, if he really ran away, how would he be able to conquer them in the future?
