Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 6986

Chapter 6896: Enraged

“Yes, thank you, Governor Wei. I’ll take my leave now,” Li Tianming said respectfully.

“Good, go ahead. I’ll wait for your good news of breaking into the top 100 of the Ten Thousand Emperors Ranking,” Wei Shendao said with a smile.

After speaking, Li Tianming traversed this world composed of Dao plants, retracing his steps.

“Although some minor accidents occurred, I’ve still achieved my goal of breaking through.”

With effort comes reward, and Li Tianming was quite satisfied.

As Li Tianming approached the wall of Dao plants that Wei Shendao had created to provide a private space for the two of them, a

rustling

sound came from the vines and tree trunks, creating a small door for Li Tianming to leave.

However, Wei Wuji was there!

At this moment, her eyes were bloodshot, and she was slumped against a towering Dao plant.

After Li Tianming emerged, Wei Wuji glared at him with resentment.

She demanded fiercely, “What were you doing just now! What did you do to my mother?”

Li Tianming replied directly, “Governor Wei was using the Life-Giving Jade Elixir on me to help me break through my cultivation level. Nothing else happened.”

It was a fact that Li Tianming had received a fortuitous opportunity; he hadn’t stolen or robbed it—it was given to him by Wei Shendao—so he readily admitted it.

Wei Wuji only paused for a moment before angrily retorting, “Nonsense! What does using the Life-Giving Jade Elixir have to do with your actions just now?!”

Li Tianming sensed something was amiss. He asked suspiciously, “Isn’t it said that the Life-Giving Jade Elixir is compatible with the Great Dao, and if it leaves the Life-Giving Realm directly, it will quickly lose its effect? So, ingesting it directly like this is the most effective.”

“You’re talking nonsense…”

Wei Wuji immediately wanted to retort, but suddenly, she froze. Thoughts flashed through her mind.

Li Tianming knew nothing about the Life-Giving Jade Elixir!

This whole explanation was clearly taught to him by someone, so the answer was obvious!

“The Life-Giving Jade Elixir won’t become ineffective from exposure, and it doesn’t have all those messy properties. That stuff doesn’t need to be fed like that…”

Wei Wuji was devastated; she understood her mother’s intentions.

The whole affair was a deliberate ambiguity created by Wei Shendao!

She deliberately fabricated a story to make Li Tianming approach her in a seemingly i*imate way!

“What?”

He, Aurora, Sui Shenyao, and An Ning exclaimed in unison.

From Wei Wuji’s words, though not explicitly stated, everyone could guess the truth.

Li Tianming was also dumbfounded, remembering all his initial efforts in vain to produce the Life-Giving Jade Elixir.

Clearly, that too was intentional!

Understanding all this, Wei Wuji’s resentment towards Li Tianming reached its peak!

Her chest heaved with rage as she gritted her teeth and said, “My mother’s Life-Giving Elixir was meant for me!”

“You seduced my mother and stole the Life-Giving Elixir!”

“You thief, you villain, you deserve to die!!”

“Hey, you can’t slander someone’s innocence! I, Li Tianming, have an upright and honest life!” Li Tianming glared back.

“Enough nonsense, prepare to die!”

As soon as Wei Wuji finished speaking, she summoned the Life-Giving Realm, and a deep abyss-like passage suddenly expanded from the green crystal between her brows.

Boom!!

The Dao Plant Legion surged forth, determined to tear Li Tianming apart!

Although her Dao Plant Legion was now larger and of higher quality than before,

Li Tianming’s strength had already made a huge leap, and Wei Wuji was no match for him.

Therefore, Li Tianming didn’t use many of his usual methods, only enhancing his physical strength through the fusion state of the Primordial Chaos War God’s companion beast.

He transformed into a thousand bolts of lightning, leaving a trail of afterimages as he traversed a vast, green ocean of Dao Plants, their forms menacing and menacing.

Crack!

A flash of lightning, and Li Tianming arrived instantly beside Wei Wuji.

Before Wei could unleash his battle techniques, Li Tianming seized him, pinning his hands behind his back, rendering him immobile.

Capture the leader first!

Instantly, the Dao Plants were unable to attack Li Tianming.

Under absolute power, the Dao Plant army became ineffective.

“You bastard, you white-haired bastard, let me go!”

Wei Wuji struggled desperately, trying to break free from Li Tianming’s grasp.

However, his struggles were futile. Under Li Tianming’s absolute suppression, Wei Wuji once again shed tears of humiliation.

The thought that his mother had given the Life-Giving Jade Liquid, originally his own, to Li Tianming, and now Li Tianming had used that Life-Giving Jade Liquid to enhance his cultivation, and then used that cultivation to suppress him,

filled Wei Wuji with a profound sense of powerlessness and despair.

Li Tianming coughed lightly and said, “I’ve received a favor from Governor Wei, and I don’t want to hurt you again. Recapturing an entire Dao Plant Legion is too much trouble. Just put your Dao Plants away.”

“I won’t! I’ll kill you!” Wei Wuji cried out in a frenzy.

Whatever Li Tianming said or did now seemed like mockery to Wei Wuji.

Instead of being persuaded, she became even more frenzied, wanting the Dao Plants to attack the two of them directly.

Whoosh!

The Dao Plant Legion swarmed directly towards Li Tianming.

However, just as Li Tianming was about to release the Xiwa Hell Legion,

“Wuji! Stop! Don’t be ridiculous! Do you want to hurt yourself?”

A voice came from behind—it was Wei Shendao!

Having learned from her previous embarrassing experience of being witnessed, Wei Shendao naturally instructed the Dao Plants to closely monitor the movements within the Divine Palace.

From the moment Wei Wuji attacked until she was captured, not much time had passed.

Therefore, she appeared at this crucial moment.

Wei Wuji’s eyes welled with tears, and she bit her lip, saying, “Mother…why…”

Wei Shendao temporarily ignored Wei Wuji’s question.

She looked at Li Tianming and said helplessly, “Tianming, give Wuji to me. I will go back and teach her properly.”

“Yes, Governor Wei,” Li Tianming nodded in agreement.

After learning the truth about the Life-Giving Jade Elixir, it was difficult for Li Tianming not to feel awkward facing Wei Shendao.

However, he was a man who had seen many storms, and he remained calm at this moment.

He handed Wei Wuji to Wei Shendao like a chick.

Wei Wuji continued to hurl insults and curses at Li Tianming.

“Li Tianming, you just wait!”

Wei Wuji’s eyes were filled with complex emotions—grievance, confusion, and resentment towards Li Tianming.

Li Tianming ignored her, bid farewell to Wei Shendao, and left the Divine Path Palace.

Wei Jingchen, who had previously guided Li Tianming, was waiting outside the Divine Path Palace. His eyes lit up the moment he saw Li Tianming.

“Junior Brother Li, let’s go. I’ll continue to guide you out,” Wei Jingchen said.

“Thank you for your trouble, Senior Brother,” Li Tianming replied politely.

It seemed this was someone who had been arranged, to prevent Li Tianming from being killed by the city’s protective formation.

With the help of Wei Jingchen’s disciple token, Li Tianming successfully passed through the protective formation of the Living Spirit Imperial City.
