Chapter 253: Chapter 253 Seeking the Way . Divining the Fate

“Don’t try to trick me . If you want to avenge your teacher, you have to rely on me . And those disciples of yours, I’m the one who decides whether they live or die . ”

Jihuang Demon Lord looked down on the Divine Monk and mocked him .

He had other uses for the monk, which was why he did not kill him .

Xuanhe Divine Monk and Daoya Old Man were close friends, and both were masters in divination . They knew Yin and Yang and understood how to divine fate .

Facing Jihuang Demon Lord’s threat, Xuanhe Divine monk did not reply .

He was already used to it .

“Oh yes, is Zhou Xuanji the Ten Thousand Year Prince?”

Jihuang Demon Lord inquired further . His eyes looked at the monk intently .

He knew about the monk’s relationship with Daoya Old Man, who was the grand-teacher of Zhou Xuanji .

The murder of the monk’s teacher partnered with his close friend’s grand-student—what irony .

“No, the Ten Thousand Year Prince is another person and has already been born . ”

Xuanhe Divine Monk replied, which made the Demon Lord frown .

“Is Yang Di the Ten Thousand Year Prince?”

“No . ”

“Jiang Wudi”

“No . ”

“Me?”

“Impossible!”

“…”

Jihuang Demon Lord fell into silence . Fury was burning in his eyes .

He asked gravely, “Then tell me . Who is the Ten Thousand Year Prince?”

Legends about the Ten Thousand Year Prince was really suspicious . If that kind of person really existed, he or she would surely become an obstacle to him .

“This monk has no idea . ”

Xuanhe Divine Monk replied . Jihuang Demon Lord stared at him and struck him with his palm across the air .

Boooom!

Xuanhe Divine Monk was slammed into the wall, and blood welled up from his throat .

Jihuang Demon Lord snorted coldly before turning around and leaving .

…

Three months later

Zhou Xuanji and his companions were walking in the desert . About a hundred people followed behind him . They practiced their sword techniques as they walked .

As of now, there were a hundred and twenty-one second-generation disciples .

Zhou Xuanji’s battle during the heavenly tribulation, his fame peaked . When he passed by an empire previously, countless people were drawn to him . After a half-month long evaluation, there were a few dozen disciples who were quite talented .

He always asked for quality over quantity .

These second-generation disciples had good insight into the Sword’s Way . They could learn a sword technique in a short time, even though they needed much more time to reach Great Accomplishment .

Xu Yang had already become a senior disciple amongst the second-generation disciples . Although other disciples surpassed him in talent, none of them had his jumpy character .

Moreover, he had already taken Xiao Jinghong to be his teacher, and Xiao Jinghong was Zhou Xuanji’s only disciple .

At this moment, Ning Zifeng was teaching the second-generation disciples sword techniques . Everyone’s movements were in sync with his, which looked very impressive .

Meanwhile, Zhou Xuanji was discussing hidden powerful cultivators in the Northern Wilderness Region with Daoya Old Man and Xian Xianghua at the front .

Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, Zhao Congjian, Han Shenbo, Chongming Demon Monarch, Huang Lianxin, and Beixiao Wangjian were all listening attentively .

The little black snake and Zhou Xiaoqi were playing around with Zhang Kuanglan .

The two dragon eagles circled in the air and patrolled for them .

“I have always been curious . Who taught Yang Di?”

Daoya Old Man asked Xian Xianghua . Among them, only Xian Xianghua knew Yang Di . They fought three times after all .

Xian Xianghua rolled her eyes at him and said, “How the hell would I know?”

Zhou Xuanji, on the other hand, was thinking about the Haotian Sect .

Would there be more devil lords from the Haotian Sect that remained in the world?

Or else, with Zhang Kuanglan’s current cultivation, it would not have a significant impact on him .

At this moment .

Xian Xianghua stopped her footsteps suddenly, and so did Daoya Old Man .

Zhou Xuanji looked up and saw someone walking toward them amidst the dusty storm .

“Everyone, on guard!”

Ning Zifeng cried out, and the second generation disciples stopped immediately .

“Great Realization cultivation . Nothing to fear . ”

XIan Xianghua smiled softly, which made the others speechless .

The little black snake could not hold but asked, “You are already badly injured, and you still look down on Great Realization cultivators?”

Right after he spoke, a wave of murderous aura made him shudder . He immediately shut his mouth and hid behind Zhou Xiaoqi .

“Born extraordinary, your fate contains the purple Qi . Heaven envies, and your life is difficult . ”

An old voice came from ahead, which shocked Zhou Xuanji and the others slightly .

The incoming person is hostile!

That statement was apparently describing Zhou Xuanji .

“Who are you? Tell us . ”

Daoya Old Man asked loudly . He was not worried because Zhou Xuanji was already powerful enough since even a Great Realization cultivator was not enough to threaten him yet .

That person walked out of the dust storm . He was wearing an old, yellow daoist robe and his hair was pinned by a wooden pin . His face looked emaciated, but his eyes were fierce .

He stared fixedly at Zhou Xuanji and ignored the others . “I have no name . You can call me the Daoseeker . I travel throughout the world to see the traces of the Heavenly Dao’s activities . ”

Daoseeker?

Zhou Xuanji mumbled to himself, “Could this guy be a lunatic?”

The others frowned too and instinctively thought that something was wrong with Daoseeker’s head .

Daoseeker walked over slowly but still looked intently at Zhou Xuanji .

“You don’t belong to the Northern Wilderness Region, and yet you could heavily impact the fated path of the Northern Wilderness Region . You are neither Heaven, the Ten Thousand Year Prince, nor the Son of Fate . Who are you?” He continued to ask, and Zhou Xuanji contemplated .

Could this guy see that he was reincarnated here?

Ning Zifeng drew his sword and charged . “Crazy old Daoist, who allowed you to talk rubbish!” He cursed .

In an instant, he came up to Daoseeker’s face and slashed toward him .

The Daoseeker dodged with great agility . Facing Ning Zifeng’s attacks, he did not retaliate and only evaded .

The movements of the two were very swiftly, and the second generation disciples could barely catch up .

“Such speed!”

“That old guy can dodge Senior Ning’s sword!”

“Could he be some powerhouse?”

“Anyway, our Grand-teacher is here . Don’t need to be afraid . ”

“Yeah, we also have the top evil cultivator . ”

The second-generation disciples chatted among themselves lightheartedly . They smiled and were not nervous .

Xian Xianghua frowned and muttered, “Daoseeker . This name sounds so familiar . I seem to have heard it somewhere before . ”

Zhou Xuanji glanced at her but did not ask a thing .

“Zifeng, come back,” he cried out . Having heard him, Ning Zifeng snorted coldly before he backed off .

He looked reluctantly, but he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart .

This old guy is unfathomable!

Daoseeker stopped walking and looked at Zhou Xuanji . His eyes were filled with doubts .

“Daoseeker . What is it that you want? If you want to fight, then be careful that my legendary swords are blind . If you have other matters, tell us quickly and then move aside,” Zhou Xuanji asked calmly . They were just talking about powerful cultivators in the Northern Wilderness Region who had yet to die, and now they had encountered one .

That old guy could deal with Ning Zifeng easily, which means he was considered average or even higher in the Great Realization stage .

“I’m just curious . I have never interfered with events in the world . Ever since ancient times, no one could hurt me, and I have hurt no one . ”

Daoseeker shook his head and looked expectantly .

“I have met Yang Di . He had the qualities of a Great Emperor . Before you appeared, the Northern Wilderness Region’s fate was that he would surely become the Great Emperor, but things changed after you appeared . ”

His words made everyone surprised .

Could it be that Zhou Xuanji was going to replace Yang Di?

Xian Xianghua’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled . She suddenly looked at the Daoseeker favorably .

“After you appeared, Yang Di’s heart changed,” the Daoseeker continued to speak, “He’s no longer an ascetic cultivator . Soon, he shall reign over the entire Northern Wilderness Region and unite the human race . ”
