MD Ch3 Part 1
by Aoi“Lord, Song Qiyuan has fallen.”
Just as I was silently praying for Song Qiyuan, Ah Jiu’s voice reached my ears, snapping me back to reality.
“Yes…”

What was Ah Jiu’s intention in saying this so suddenly? I already knew Song Qiyuan had fallen. I was already feeling guilty, and his words just made it worse!
“You’re going to save him, right? When you stroked his head that time, I felt like you cared about him.”

I froze. I never imagined hearing such words from Ah Jiu. I thought he harbored deep resentment towards Song Qiyuan, but now he was telling me to save him?
As if reading my thoughts, Ah Jiu continued.

“Lord, you must find my attitude perplexing. I’m not saying this because I like that brat. It’s because I know you don’t want to kill him. I don’t understand why you softened after I returned with the Reincarnation Fruit, but regardless, both the past Lord and the current Lord are the same person. So don’t hold back. Do what you want. Ah Jiu likes the Lord who does whatever he pleases.”
…What does “the Lord who does whatever he pleases” even mean? Is that a compliment or an insult? Am I out of touch? Or is it my comprehension skills? Since when did doing whatever one wants become praiseworthy?

Ah Jiu’s words lifted my spirits, but I was still at a loss. I didn’t know what to do next. However, thanks to Ah Jiu, my heart felt lighter.
“Lord, say something! Are you touched? It was worth it to finally say something so profound. Lord? Lord~!”

Seeing my lack of response, Ah Jiu called out to me in a coquettish voice laced with anxiety. He sounded incredibly cute. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t articulate my feelings eloquently enough, so I simply replied,
“Thank you, Ah Jiu.”

“Phew, you finally answered. You scared me. I thought I said something wrong.”
Although I couldn’t see Ah Jiu’s expression, I could sense his sigh of relief. Knowing I wasn’t angry, he continued to question me.

“So, you’re going to save him, right? While they’re fighting, we’ll go rescue him?”
Looking around, I realized I was the only one not engaged in the chaotic battle. The serene atmosphere around me contrasted sharply with the mayhem unfolding, making it feel like a completely different world. If I were to join the fray, it would tip the balance, so none of the Immortal Realm cultivators dared to provoke me. Ruan Shijiu, the only one targeting me, was thoroughly blocked by Gu Jincheng.

Ah, the loneliness of being an expert.
They weren’t attacking me, only observing my movements. It seemed they didn’t want to be the unlucky fool who died by my hand without even a chance to react.

“Ah Jiu, with so many eyes watching, let’s wait until this Lord has dealt with them before going to rescue him.”
“You’re going to personally intervene, Lord? Should Ah Jiu assist you?”

“Looking at your state, how could this Lord possibly stop you? Very well, let’s do it.”
With my permission, Ah Jiu let out a mighty roar, the force of which sent the opposing demonic beasts and the two-headed lion with fiery wings trembling further away.

Leaping from Ah Jiu’s back, I brazenly joined Gu Jincheng and Ruan Shijiu’s duel. I launched a palm strike, aiming for Ruan Shijiu’s sword.
The ideal scenario was for him to collapse unconscious, allowing someone else to carry him away. As an elder of the Qingcang Sect, his skills were undoubtedly formidable. If I left him to Gu Jincheng alone, there was no guarantee of victory.

Increasing the speed of my hand movements, I recalled Yu Ke’s fighting techniques. Yu Ke’s innate demonic physique was already overpowered, but the cultivation techniques he practiced were even more so. The profound energy flowing through my hands was incredibly violent and highly corrosive. As I poured all my strength into the technique, Ruan Shijiu’s weapon began to emit a piercing shriek that made my ears ring.
As if understanding my intentions, Gu Jincheng intensified his attacks with his long staff. The two of us ganging up on one person felt like déjà vu… It looked rather underhanded. However, such behavior wasn’t out of character for the ruthless Yu Ke.

“Yu Ke, you vile creature!”
Cheng Yuan, who was further away, started hurling insults at me. Engaged in a two-on-one fight, he couldn’t afford to confront me as well.

“That’s right. I am vile.”
Too lazy to argue, I readily admitted it. After all, I currently possessed the power to back up my words.

Having provoked Cheng Yuan and Mo Sang, I turned my attention back to the diminutive Ruan Shijiu before me. I expected him to show at least a hint of fear or anxiety, but he didn’t even bother waiting for reinforcements. He spoke with unwavering defiance.
“You dare come here and kill the child in front of me? I will remember this grudge. If I, Ruan Shijiu, survive this day, I will have my revenge!”

“…..”
Dude, what’s with your intelligence? Honestly, even if the real Yu Ke were here, he wouldn’t kill you after hearing that. That would be even stranger. Every word you utter is a threat to my life, so why should I spare you?

Well, I had to spare him. Fortunately, he was Song Qiyuan’s second Master. If I killed him, who would teach Song Qiyuan, and how would the boy enter the Qingcang Sect?
Everything was for Song Qiyuan.

With this thought firmly in mind, I made up my decision. I snapped Ruan Shijiu’s sword in half with one hand. With the other, I struck his chest with a controlled burst of power, using only half my strength. To my surprise, Ruan Shijiu went flying.
He was sent tumbling like a leaf in the autumn wind, his body painting a gruesome picture with the blood he coughed up.

D*mn it! What have I done?
My entire body froze. I hadn’t expected Ruan Shijiu to be so weak.

Gu Jincheng, who had been observing my every move, excitedly prepared to strike again. Quickly grasping his intentions, I swiftly reached out and blocked his long staff. Shaking my head, I delivered the line I had been contemplating for a while.
“Jincheng, let him go for now. This was merely a display of power. It’s not yet time for a full-scale war with the Immortal Realm.”

With my intervention, Gu Jincheng retreated, and Cheng Yuan carried Ruan Shijiu back to their side.
Cheng Yuan quickly retrieved a pill from a white jade bottle and fed it to Ruan Shijiu. From afar, the contrast between Ruan Shijiu’s pale face and Cheng Yuan’s grim expression was stark. Cheng Yuan roared, “How dare you be so arrogant, Yu Ke!”

Ruan Shijiu’s miserable condition made me feel a slight pang of guilt, but seeing his breathing, I knew he would recover quickly, so I remained calm. However, Cheng Yuan’s words suddenly piqued my interest.
Is this guy an idiot? He can’t even retort properly amidst the chaos, only resorting to such derivative remarks.

I laughed without restraint and replied,
“Clan Leader Cheng, you are right. This Lord enjoys tormenting people. Especially ‘kind-hearted’ individuals like you who meddle in other people’s affairs.”

Maintaining a cold expression and a sarcastic tone, I changed the subject.
“Cheng Yuan, take your people and get out of this Lord’s territory immediately. Don’t forget that this Lord annihilated the Song Clan and can just as easily annihilate the Cheng Clan. If you cause any more trouble today, you will bear the consequences.”

With a flourish of my sleeves, I addressed the onlookers who had stopped fighting and were now observing us.
“I’ll give you exactly one quarter of an hour. Disappear from this Lord’s sight. Anyone who remains will be fed to the demonic creatures of the Heavenly River as bait.”

Delivering the last sentence with a sinister smirk, I successfully subdued the situation.
The crowd hesitated, exchanging glances and whispering amongst themselves. Soon, the numerous sects began to retreat.

My words seemed to have struck a nerve with Cheng Yuan, his face turning various shades of red and blue. His handsome features were of no use now.
One quarter of an hour was fifteen minutes. Honestly, I had spoken imposingly, but I was only estimating the time. Who could accurately measure fifteen minutes without a clock? The elders on my side all puffed out their chests, eager to express their defiance and contempt towards the Immortal Realm.

After a brief silence, while Ruan Shijiu remained unconscious, Cheng Yuan, his face regaining its composure, uttered three words through gritted teeth:
“We are leaving.”

As if ashamed of retreating so easily, he turned back to me after taking a few steps and added,
“I will remember this humiliation.”

Whether you remember it or not, will we ever meet again? And would I even bother dealing with you again?
With Ruan Shijiu gone and the crowd already wavering, Cheng Yuan’s retreat removed any remaining reason for them to stay. They were only there for the sake of appearances. The annihilation of the Song Clan was a loss of face for the Immortal Realm, but it wasn’t worth risking their lives to fight me over.
