Terrifying Beyond Measure, Master Logician, Saint Son Wang on the Verge of Going Dark?

By the time Su Changge returned to the Returning Origin Holy Hall, it was already evening.

Yun Xinyan followed him in as well, feeling somewhat uneasy.

If the Divine Son does something to me later, should I submit or not? As she thought about it, her cheeks flushed crimson again.

The moment she stepped into the Returning Origin Holy Hall, the sight before her left her staring blankly once more.

The vast holy hall contained no furnishings whatsoever. There were only leftover cultivation materials—there was not even a bed!

How did the Divine Son rest?

Su Changge also noticed that something was off with her.

Before he could say anything, Yun Xinyan's eyes sparkled with stars as she said excitedly, "Divine Son, you must have cast aside such distractions in pursuit of the supreme Great Dao!"

"Thank you for your guidance, Divine Son. Xinyan has gained greatly from it!"

With that, Yun Xinyan gave a graceful bow and respectfully saluted Su Changge.

Su Changge could not help but feel speechless. What did that have to do with anything?

She had somehow turned this into guidance?

But since he was the Divine Son, he had to keep up a certain air. He could only put on a gratified expression and say, "Not bad. It seems you possess great awareness."

Seeing the Divine Son's approval, Yun Xinyan beamed with joy. "Thank you for your guidance, Divine Son. Xinyan will certainly not disappoint your expectations!"

Su Changge shook his head with a bitter smile. In any case, she had imagined all of this herself.

Su Changge sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion, circulating his spiritual energy and entering a state of cultivation.

Because of the Spirit Gathering Sky Dome Formation, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was converging here. The spiritual energy within the entire Returning Origin Holy Hall was incomparably dense.

Much of the vast spiritual energy even entered Yun Xinyan's body of its own accord!

This sight made Yun Xinyan's beautiful eyes widen. After another round of wild speculation, she suddenly came to a realization.

She bowed once more toward Su Changge, who was meditating, her voice carrying even more gratitude. "The Divine Son has actually gathered so much spiritual energy of heaven and earth in order to look after me. I definitely will not disappoint the Divine Son's expectations!"

Go, Xinyan! The Divine Son is already so outstanding, and he treats you so well. How can you drag him down?

Su Changge, immersed in cultivation, knew nothing of this. Why was he being thanked just for cultivating?

At the same time.

On a Suspended Divine Mountain within the Returning Origin Holy Land.

Wang Kaihe slowly opened his eyes. He was currently lying in his room.

"Where... where am I?"

"You're awake? How do you feel?" An aged voice rang out. It belonged to an old man seated in the corner.

It was that Supreme Elder, and also his master.

"Kaihe, after the battle earlier, have you gained anything?"

Wang Kaihe was somewhat bewildered. Recalling what had happened earlier only made him more resentful. "Su Changge was merely relying on his Innate Saintly Body Dao Embryo. Who knows what shitty luck he stumbled into to awaken sword intent as well!"

"If it had been me, I would have—"

"Enough!"

The Supreme Elder berated him, "Kaihe! Since when did you become like this?! Failure is not frightening. Only the weak care about humiliation!"

He was truly disappointed in his disciple. Wang Kaihe had lost so completely, yet not only did he refuse to reflect on the reasons, he had instead conceived such absurd thoughts!

Wang Kaihe seemed unconvinced, but he still forced himself to speak. "Su Changge clearly just—"

Smack!

The Supreme Elder directly struck him with a resounding slap.

"Presumptuous!"

"Changge Divine Son is the Divine Son of our Returning Origin Holy Land! Again and again, you address the Changge Divine Son by his full name. Are you still the Holy Son of this holy land or not?!"

The roar instantly drowned out Wang Kaihe's voice.

Along with it came a terrifying spiritual pressure that spread through the room, making one's heart tremble in fear.

Wang Kaihe was stunned. His master, who had always doted on him most, had actually hit him?!

From childhood until now, his master had never once struck him!

His master had always been the one who indulged him the most!

Yet now, because of an outsider, he had given him such a vicious slap?

He covered his burning cheek. The force had been so great that he could taste something metallic and sweet in his mouth.

"What?!"

"Are you still unwilling to reflect on yourself?!" Seeing the unconvinced look on his disciple's face, the Supreme Elder shouted again.

Only after hearing those words did Wang Kaihe realize that his master was serious.

He hurriedly lowered his head and cupped his hands. "This disciple was rash. Please forgive me, Master!"

Yet though he said this, his lowered eyes were filled with rage.

"Kaihe."

"I advise you to put away any thoughts of revenge. Otherwise, if the Divine Son truly decides to deal with you, even I will not be able to help you."

"The holy land's ancestors have long since unanimously agreed that the entire upper echelon of the holy land will follow the Divine Son's will! Wherever the Divine Son points, that is where the holy land shall go!"

"If you clash head-on with him, then as a Holy Son, you won't even amount to a fart!"

"He would not even need to lift a hand. You would be suppressed directly!"

After earnestly persuading Wang Kaihe for quite some time, the Supreme Elder finally calmed his aura.

After a long while, he sighed helplessly, patted Wang Kaihe on the shoulder, and spoke earnestly once more. "Disciple, your master is only doing this for your own good."

"The Divine Son is far more than merely someone with Saintly Body talent. He is also a man blessed by the Heavenly Dao, one favored by Heaven's Mandate."

At those words, Wang Kaihe abruptly raised his head, his eyes filled with terror!

A man blessed by the Heavenly Dao, favored by Heaven's Mandate.

His future prospects were immeasurable. He was destined not to remain a thing in a pond, but to become a true dragon soaring above the nine heavens.

Such a legendary figure was actually Su Changge?

"Alas..."

Seeing his disciple look utterly lost.

The Supreme Elder could not help but let out a long sigh before turning into a wisp of mist and vanishing.

He knew that his disciple had his own pride. He would let him have some peace alone.

Only after a long time did Wang Kaihe recover his senses.

But when he thought once more of the humiliation of being defeated by Su Changge earlier.

Having always been accustomed to smooth sailing, he had already cast everything else aside.

Jealousy and fury overwhelmed his mind!

He had originally been someone who could summon wind and rain within the holy land!

But the moment Su Changge appeared, he had become the first target to be suppressed!

He had nearly been able to share a room alone with Yun Xinyan, yet Su Changge had ruined it again!

Then, after challenging him and making such bold boasts, not only had he been defeated in a miserable state, he had also become the laughingstock of the holy land!

Thinking of all this, Wang Kaihe was even more enraged!

"Su Changge! Just you wait!"

"No matter how high your talent in the sword Dao is, compared to the Luo River Sword Sect, you are still not qualified!"

Wang Kaihe let out a low roar, transforming into a streak of light that flew out of the cave dwelling and vanished into the darkness.
