This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder
chapter-115

Immortal Concubine Chong was a title created not out of honor but of shame. What glory was there for a True Immortal to be called a concubine? But Immortal Concubine Chong still chose such a title in order to forever engrave the humiliation she experienced at the hands of the Dragon Emperor.

When Immortal Concubine Chong had still not transcended her Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation, and even before the Dragon Emperor’s fall, she had been the proud child of the sect master of a second-rate sect. Her father was a True Immortal considered to have half a foot into the Seamless Immortal Realm, and her mother had been a True Immortal. Her parents had been the quintessential example of an Immortal couple, receiving looks of admiration, envy, and hate from everyone. And she, the princess of the sect, was born with both peerless talent and beauty that could cause the downfall of nations even as a mortal.

But that all changed when the Dragon Emperor laid eyes on her.

The Dragon Emperor just kidnapped her without another word, and she was forcibly made into his concubine. Her life turned into hell. She was an object to be used whenever the Dragon Emperor felt the mood. Even worse, some of the women the Dragon Emperor kidnapped developed feelings for him and even suppressed and bullied her because of her beauty. All this for that scumbag!

Immortal Concubine Chong thought them brainless. Just because a man stole your virginity, you fell in love? Where was your pride!?

It was only later that Immortal Concubine Chong discovered news of her parents’ death. They had confronted the Dragon Emperor over her and were murdered by him in the end. Because of that, not only did her parents die, but her sect was destroyed as well. It was only then that she tasted the deepest despair for the first time in her life. She did not know how she managed to survive those dark days, but when she regained clarity of her mind, Immortal Concubine Chong swore vengeance on not only the Dragon Emperor but the enemies of her sect who schemed all of this as well.

From then on, she used any means necessary to grow stronger. Even going so far as to willingly seduce that bastard. With the resources she gained, Immortal Concubine Chong grew by thousands of miles a day. She even managed to manipulate the Dragon Emperor into destroying the sect that had schemed her parents’ death and sect’s destruction.

Sometimes Immortal Concubine Chong wondered if the Dragon Emperor knew that he killed her parents or she was plotting revenge. How arrogant did he believe that a girl would fall in love with her parent’s murderer?

From a mere mortal to a Transcending Mortality Sage, Immortal Concubine Chong surpassed even the geniuses of first-rate sects. But just as she transcended her Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation, the news of the Dragon Emperor’s death reached her ears. It was as if the world had collapsed for Immortal Concubine Chong.

Her mind had almost shattered as she lost the target of her vengeance. But luckily, there were targets for her to vent on. The women of the Dragon Emperor’s harem still existed. All those that bullied and offended her, she tortured and killed. She knew many of them were forced by the circumstances. But she didn’t care, otherwise, the hatred would fester to an unbearable point, driving her to madness. As for those who were unwilling victims and wanted to escape, Immortal Concubine Chong didn’t keep them there either. Those without a place to return to anymore, she gave some resources so that they could live the rest of their life quietly.

But afterward, Immortal Concubine Chong became like an empty husk, drifting around without purpose. That is until she discovered the existence of the Dragon Emperor Clones. Like a woman driven mad, if Immortal Concubine Chong claimed number two in killing Dragon Emperor Clones, then no individual would claim number one.

It was also at this time that she chose her Immortal title, Immortal Concubine Chong. It was both a vow and a commitment. She would not change her title until the Dragon Emperor ceased to exist in both body and soul, past present and future, no matter the form.

Recently, Immortal Concubine Chong received news that the Buzhou Immortal Sect was secretly raising the Dragon Emperor Clone as a chesspiece and that he would be near the Ocean Lake Region. This information completely enraged her. Of all the people and forces, shouldn’t it be the Buzhou Immortal Sect that hated the Dragon Emperor as much as her considering how much of their foundation was destroyed by the Dragon Emperor? She only half-believed the information, but she was not one to let anything escape her net. So she personally made a trip to see whether the information was correct.

But it was only now that she learned that the intellect she received was true. Her eyes blazed with anger as she saw that despicable face of the man exiting out of the inheritance grotto. Immortal Concubine Chong could easily see his ragged state and the intent on fleeing. Her mind only screamed one purpose, slay Long Aotian!

“SPAWN OF AOTIAN, DON’T THINK OF LEAVING WITH YOUR LIFE!!!”

When the Dragon Emperor was alive, he had heavily doted on Immortal Concubine Chong to the point of transmitting several consummate skills of his to her. This included the Dragon Slaying Saber Art.

A silver saber appeared in Immortal Concubine Chong’s hand, and a red light covered it as she unleashed her saber intent. Each person would have different accomplishments training in the same technique—the Dragon Emperor, as the creator, absorbing the draconic essence of those slain by the blade. But Immortal Concubine Chong was different. Her only focus was to slay dragons, including the Dragon Emperor himself!

Immortal Concubine Chong had unleashed the maximum effect on the Dragon Slaying Saber Art’s slaying concept at her realm through years of practice. If Tianyi were to witness her technique just once, he would be able to unleash an even more powerful version of Dragon Extermination from his Nine Strokes Sword Art.

“Chong’er!?” Longwei cried in surprise when he saw Immortal Concubine Chong unleashing the Dragon Slaying Saber Art filled with murderous intent. Disbelief colored his whole face.

Immortal Concubine Chong’s eyes narrowed when she heard Longwei’s words, but her movement did not falter one bit.

In the end, Longwei’s chariot Immortal Realm Artifact was destroyed by Immortal Concubine Chong in one strike. He only barely managed to stay alive thanks to the automatic defense system of the Red Dragon Lotus, but the Red Dragon Lotus had to pay a heavy price to shield Longwei. Now it lost all its luster and turned grey, unable to exhibit any of its power no matter how many times Longwei called upon it.

But to Longwei, that wasn’t the worst part. He could only stare dazedly at the corpses of the woman who were with him in the chariot. None of them had complete bodies. Like broken mannequins, all their body parts lay strewn across the ground.

“Mei’er, Qin’er, Wu’er…!” One by one, Longwei called out their names. His eyes brightened when he saw one of his women still alive. Her bottom half had been bisected, but she still breathed. Blood was continuously being chocked out, but there was still hope to survive. But before Longwei could move to save her, a dainty foot was placed on the bisected woman’s head. Longwei’s widened eyes traveled up the foot to see the Immortal Concubine Chong’s insanity saturated eyes.

There was a deafening crack before an even louder crunching sound sounded. Immortal Concubine Chong didn’t even blink as blood splattered all over her face, the sadistic pleasure glinting in her eye increased as she watched Longwei’s pained expression.

“Chong’er…why!? How could you do this!? WHY!!?!??” Longwei screamed in a mad rage. The sting of betrayal was like a dull knife carving his heart, piece by piece.

“Chong’er? Why?” Longwei asked with ragged breath.

Immortal Concubine Chong repeated before releasing a peal of bell-like laughter as if it was the funniest thing she ever heard. Then Immortal Concubine Chong spoke with honeyed-words. “Since you called me Chong’er, then you should have some memories of Aotian. Shouldn’t you know then? Do you really not know?”

Longwei’s expression clearly displayed his inability to understand.

“That’s fine, keep asking that question in hell. Maybe I’ll reveal it to your other clones one day.” Immortal Concubine Chong said as she raised her blade high.

Unknowing of what was occurring outside of the inheritance grotto, Tianyi frowned as he pondered whether to chase or not. He did not have any treasures that would be capable of pursuing Longwei. He did have some movement talismans, but he could only point the direction and did not have fine control of their movement. It was unsuitable for chasing Longwei.

Tianyi took a look at his surroundings and the various state of injuries the disciples of the Buzhou Immortal Sect and the four Vassal Sects attained. With a sigh, Tianyi decided not to chase after Longwei. Using his life-preserving measures to chase after another person was not worth it. Longwei wasn’t a big enough threat for him to go all out yet.

He summoned the Nine Mountains and Seas Formation with a flip of his hand, surprising all people present. Tianyi didn’t allow them to say anything before the silver sea surrounding the first mountain turned into a silvery fog that enveloped everyone. His mastery having increased, Tianyi began to unleashed the technique that rewound time on all the injured people’s bodies.

All the people present watched, wide-eyed, as the wounds on their bodies began to heal at a visible rate. They thought Tianyi was using some secret technique to heal them, and instantly gratefulness appeared in their hearts. But soon, a cry of surprise caused everyone to be in shock.

“T-this! Th-this is a temporal technique; Daoist Xi is using a temporal technique to heal us!”

“Temporal technique? Isn’t that even harder than spatial techniques?”

“Indeed, not even True Immortals can unleash a temporal technique! For a Nascent Soul Grandmaster to use such a technique, the price is definitely not small!”

“Many thanks to Senior Xi’s benevolence!”

“I will repay Senior Xi’s benevolence in the future!”

“Daoist Xi, I will never forget this aid for the rest of my life!”

Tianyi found himself smiling in appreciation at the words of thanks. But he soon felt that the debt they felt towards him was a bit too heavy. He didn’t pay any price a tall. He simply used his technique using the Nine Mountains and Seas Formation. The one paying the price was the Immortal Realm formation under his control, not him. And it will only need some time to recuperate and return to full capacity. But Tianyi didn’t say anything. For one, he was too lazy to bother, and number two, having these people grateful towards him and the Buzhou Immortal Sect will only have benefits and no disadvantages.

What he didn’t know was Longwei’s viciousness. It wasn’t only because of him killing Buzhou Immortal Sect disciples that made everyone surround him. But he also used several moves that would shatter or destroy many of the disciples’ foundations. Tianyi’s temporal method of healing reversed all those hidden dangers from Longwei’s attacks.

After he finished healing everybody, Tianyi returned to the pagoda. Tianyi could sense that the chariot Immortal Realm Artifact Longwei had wasn’t simple at all. There was a high chance that Longwei would be able to escape from the True Immortals guarding the entrance. He didn’t have any methods to communicate with them, so he just left it be. He would ascend the pagoda once more and inform Su Wanyu and have her deal with the mess.

And so, after collecting the corpse of the dead disciples, Tianyi and the people he healed all moved towards the pagoda.
