In front of Restricted Broken Mountain Range’s giant waterfall, Tian Guangming and Li Wuya’s expressions changed. They wanted to go.

Hong!

A terrifying pressure pressed down on them.

This pressure was so strong that Tian Guangming was smashed into the ground. He stumbled and sat on the ground.

Li Wuya was also here. He wasn’t any better. This pressure made him fall as well and he stumbled.

“Master, are you okay?” Li Wuya was worried.

Tian Guangming was a little bitter, “Disciple, I messed up. I made a huge mistake.”

Li Wuya consoled, “Master, this is not your fault. I also didn’t notice this scam. That old man was too cunning.”

“Right, it is all that old man’s fault. But why did he do that?” Tian Guangming didn’t understand.

Hong long long!

The seals of the jail totally exploded. A tall old man walked out. He looked at the blue sky and white clouds and took a deep breath. He said, “So many years… It has been so long since I breathed in such sweet and fresh air.”

Peng peng peng!

After the old man walked out, he didn’t even hide his aura. He was definitely at Destiny Realm and was surely at one of the higher stages.

He wasn’t one who Tian Guangming and Li Wuya could defend against.

Tian Guangming and Li Wuya found the pressure unbearable.

“Do you know why Heaven Emperor City will choose you as the fated person?” The old man looked at Tian Guangming and smiled. He was in a good mood.

Tian Guangming was furious and questioned, “You were the one who controlled everything?”

“Right, I might be trapped in the Eternal Jail but my clone has entered Heaven Emperor City to search for Heaven Emperor ruins, so it’s not able to come here to save me. I thought that I wouldn’t be able to break free even until my clone died and I would be locked up here forever. Who knew that one corner of Heaven Emperor City would fall into this world?” The tall, old man laughed out loud.

Tian Guangming and Li Wuya frowned.

“Who knew how long it has been locked up in Heaven Emperor City? My clone has gotten familiar with the entire city and can control the city gates.” The tall old man said.

“So, you chose me?” Tian Guangming was furious.

“The others were either too weak and didn’t have the ability to conceal those talismans or they were really strong and made me uneasy. Only you, you didn’t have a good relationship with the rest, so you were the best choice.” The old man smiled in delight.

“You think that you were fated but actually you were just a tool, a stupid, useless tool. I used you to open my seal which allowed me to appear in the world again.” The old man laughed out loud.

Tian Guangming’s expression was really ugly and he gritted his teeth, “I came with my partners, so why did you choose me and not them instead?”

“They’re not my ideal type. For example, that monk, he has deep thoughts. That cold guy has a lot of dark matter and he will deduce the situation very quickly. Only you, you have simple thoughts and your body is filled with light. There is no darkness in you, so you will easily believe me without suspecting anything.” The old man was in a good mood and started to explain.

This was the reason why Heaven Heart and Lucifer weren’t fated.

They might have been able to figure out what the old man was planning.

But Tian Guangming would never have.

He paid attention to different things. He placed most of his attention on the treasure and not on whether or not there was a problem with what the old man said.

Tian Guangming was furious and embarrassed. He felt like he had been insulted. Before this, he treated being the fated person as an honor, but now it seemed like a symbol of being a fool.

The so-called fated person was just the fool who had been selected.

“My Master saved you, so no matter what, you are indebted to him. We don’t demand that you remember that but you still want to kill us now?” Li Wuya didn’t want his Master to be insulted and opened his mouth.

“I am indebted?” The old man asked.

“Your Master was greedy about the treasure and he made a fool of himself.” The old man said in disdain.

“Everyone wants treasures. My Master didn’t steal nor snatch from others. He would take the treasure and then go and save your clone. This deal was one that my Master openly accepted and he did nothing wrong. As for you, you are filled with lies and cheated him, laying a trap out for my Master. Now, you even blame him for being a fool. That is preposterous… No wonder you were jailed.” Li Wuya scoffed coldly.

“You are asking to die!” The old man was furious. Being locked up in jail was what he felt most pained about. Now that Li Wuya pointed it out, he was furious.

“My disciple is right.” Tian Guangming stood up and supported his disciple.

“Of course, I was too pure and you could say that I am a fool. I don’t care. Now that you are free, we don’t owe each other anything. You don’t have to target either of us.” Tian Guangming said coldly.

“Don’t owe each other anything?” The old man smiled in disdain as he looked at Tian Guangming and Li Wuya. He had an expression of greed on his face, “I was locked here for so long and my strength has decreased significantly. I need to swallow the two of you to replenish my energy and also to understand the world as it is.”

How would the old man agree to that?

He wanted to swallow Tian Guangming and Li Wuya.

Tian Guangming scolded, “Although we can’t beat you, we have a master. Don’t force me to call him out.”

Tian Guangming didn’t want to search for Li Xiandao. No matter what, he was greedy and all he could see was the treasure. He couldn’t see the problems within.

So, if he was able to solve it himself, he would treat it as a loss and he wouldn’t be such a fool in the future.

Only

Of course, if this old man wanted to swallow the two of them, Tian Guangming had to inform Li Xiandao.

After all, his life was the most important thing and he had the stone flame on him.

But what Tian Guangming didn’t know was that both Li Xiandao and Seven had been assessing the situation from the beginning.

At this moment, in the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao and Seven totally understood the situation.

“Where is this Eternal Jail?” Li Xiandao asked curiously.

Seven’s expression changed, “The Eternal Jail shouldn’t be in the Nine Skies and Ten Lands.”

“It is the jail of the celestial dynasty. The jail is huge and holds many people from the celestial dynasty. Once one enters, one will be locked up forever, never to be released. I didn’t expect that I would be able to see signs of Eternal Jail in this corner of Great Sky.” Seven explained.
