Yuanshi Thought He Was Back on Top Again, and Dijiang Was Stunned

Laozi's words put Yuanshi at ease, and a smile appeared on his face.

The Three Pure Ones are the Heaven-Appointed Sage by the Dao Ancestor, destined to become saints in the future. No matter how strong the Three Crows are now, they will all be useless in the future.

As Laozi said, the path of laws is extremely difficult; to attain the Primordial Origin and achieve the Primordial Chaos, one would probably have to cultivate until the end of time.

But they are different; they follow Hongjun's path to sainthood. Heaven-Appointed Sage, and they will surely achieve sainthood in the future. At that time, everything will be under their control.

After some analysis, Yuanshi understood, and most of his anger disappeared, leaving only a trace of dissatisfaction. He looked at Tongtian and pressed him for details about what had happened.

"Third Brother, why didn't you use the Immortal Execution Sword Formation when fighting the Three Crows? The Dao Ancestor once said that once this formation is activated, it cannot be broken by any less than four people of the same level."

"If you had set up the Immortal Execution Sword Formation, we would never have been defeated by the Three Crows!"

He was questioning, quite dissatisfied, because he shouldn't have lost, but Tongtian idiot made him lose.

This tarnished what should have been an incredibly brilliant life for him.

Even if they become saints in the future and kill the Three Crows, they will not be able to erase this fact. All living beings will remember that they were once defeated by the Three Crows.

Tongtian paused after hearing Yuanshi's question, then said, "Second Brother, the situation is urgent; there is simply no time to set up the Immortal Execution Sword Formation."

"Besides, it's a fair three-on-three battle for us. The formation is just an external thing; even if I win, it's not because of my skill."

He was proud and had his own unique insights; his sharp eyebrows and piercing eyes revealed his indomitable spirit.

Yuanshi's words were too presumptuous. Even if he wanted to set up an array, did he think the Three Crows would just stand there and wait?

"Foolish!" Yuanshi roared, this was the first time he had ever been so angry with Tongtian. Part of this was because he was in a fit of rage, and part of it was because he was genuinely angered by Tongtian's words.

"If you're so capable, why don't you defeat Three Crows?"

"Second Brother, you've gone too far! I have my reasons for doing this, what's wrong with that?" Tongtian raised an eyebrow, somewhat angry, and disagreed with Yuanshi's words.

He felt especially uncomfortable being called stupid.

He was beaten up, but the anger was taken out on him.

Such behavior is truly unacceptable.

"You..." Yuanshi glared angrily, about to shout a rebuke, when Laozi, who had been silent all along, couldn't stand it any longer and spoke up to stop him.

"Okay, stop arguing."

"Tongtian, what your second brother said makes sense. In a life-or-death battle, we must use every means at our disposal, even formations are something you can do."

"Battle is not about acting on impulse; the overall situation must be prioritized. If we have formations, why not use them? Are we going to wait until I'm dead before using them? By then, it will be too late."

"I hope you remember this: next time, do not act impulsively."

Laozi spoke methodically, his voice soft but carrying a reprimanding tone. He naturally agreed with what Yuanshi said and was somewhat dissatisfied with Tongtian's previous actions.

He and Yuanshi were almost driven mad by the beating, while Tongtian was still hesitating and agonizing. To put it bluntly, he didn't even know when he would die at Tongtian's hands.

This is too dangerous; we must correct his dangerous thinking.

"Brother, I didn't say we shouldn't use formations, but that it takes time to set them up. In the middle of a battle, when do we have time to set up formations?" Tongtian explained somewhat unhappily, still stubbornly insisting.

Laozi Tzu chuckled and said, "Your second brother and I will naturally help you buy some time."

Tongtian looked at Laozi and Yuanshi, and could only nod in the end, offering no rebuttal.

What else could he say after things had come to this point?

On the other side.

The six Ancestral Witch, Qiangliang Zhu Jiuyin, Gonggong, Houtu, Jumang, Jumang, Xizi, finally escaped and returned.

Of these, only Zhu Jiuyin, Houtu, and Qiangliang were normal; the other three Ancestral Witch returned lying down, dragged back by three Ancestral Witch who were not seriously injured.

As soon as they returned to the Pangu Temple, Dijiang, Xuanming, and the others surrounded them. They were shocked to see the terrible scene.

"What happened? You fought against the demon race? Why were you beaten like this?" Dijiang asked in shock, his face filled with disbelief.

What did the demons eat to become so ferocious?

They couldn't even defeat the six Ancestral Witch?

Having returned from hearing the sermon, how could he have made such great progress?

Pressure, I suddenly feel the pressure!

Upon hearing Houtu, Houtu gently shook her head and said, "Not a demon."

"Are those the Three Pure Ones?" Dijiang asked, suddenly realizing. The Three Pure Ones were now disciples of the Dao Ancestor, and it was said that they had obtained extraordinary magical treasures and defeated six Ancestral Witch, which made sense.

"It's the Three Crows," Zhu Jiuyin replied, his face extremely grim. He had led the expedition, but of the six who went, three returned lying down, nearly dead.

"Three... Three Crows?" Dijiang didn't react for a moment. This strange title was unfamiliar to him and he didn't often come into contact with it.

It took me a moment to realize that they were the three Golden Crow of the Sun Star.

"Zhu Jiuyin, are you kidding me? Three Golden Crow can defeat six of you? And in such a state?"

Dijiang looked on in astonishment. Even if the Golden Crow were Quasi-Sage, they couldn't possibly be this powerful, could they?

"Not only the six of us, but even the Three Pure Ones couldn't beat them. They were chased around by the Three Crows," Zhu Jiuyin explained. This made them seem less useless, since even the Three Pure Ones were no match for them, so their defeat wasn't shameful.

"Even those Three Pure Ones, can't defeat the Golden Crow?"

The Ancestral Witch, including Dijiang, Xuanming, and Zhurong, were all astonished, feeling that it was too unreal.

The Three Pure Ones and their companions have clashed more than once, and these three old men have become more powerful with each encounter, especially now that they've obtained this supreme treasure; they're probably even more formidable now.

Under such circumstances, how could they still lose to Three Crows?

This couldn't be more outrageous!

The score is on the plain!

"Not only that, but also Jieyin and Zhunti, Duke of the East, Queen Mother of the West, the Minghe, and those beasts of the demon race—none of them could defeat the Three Crows."

Qiangliang counted on his fingers, still feeling lingering fear. Luckily, when fighting Ling Xiao, he had been careful not to be at the forefront, otherwise, there would be four of them lying on the ground now.

"No, it's one crow. All of them combined couldn't defeat that Golden Crow named Ling Xiao." He then added.

Upon hearing this statement...

Silence!

Utter silence!

The six Ancestral Witch of the Pangu Temple looked at each other, seeing the surprise and doubt in each other's eyes.

I feel like Zhu Jiuyin, Houtu, Qiangliang have lost their minds.

Even if all Twelve Ancestral Witches combined, they couldn't defeat so many powerful beings, could they?

Three Crows used their heads to fight?

And it seems to be that Wu Gan named Ling Xiao, who took on so many people single-handedly?

Are you fucking kidding me?

"Qiangliang! Tell me everything from the beginning!" Dijiang shouted, gradually realizing the seriousness of the matter.

If what Zhu Jiuyin and the others said wasn't exaggerated, then it's quite terrifying.

Qiangliang scratched his head and honestly described the whole story from beginning to end, while subtly omitting the fact that he had been brutally beaten by Ling Xiao.

After saying that.

The six Ancestral Witch, including Dijiang, were completely bewildered and fell into deep thought.
