Chapter 415: I am protecting my shortcomings?
Luo Shu smiled slightly, looking calm, as if he didn't take Yuanshi Tianzun's threat to heart.
He gently straightened his collar, his eyes gleaming with wisdom, as if he had already made up his mind.
"Second Master, you are wrong." Luo Shu said calmly, but with a subtle edge. "If you are not afraid of losing face, what should I be afraid of?"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly and snorted coldly, revealing a bit of disdain and contempt in his voice:
"Humph! Tongtian thinks highly of you and even gathered a Saint's Strike for you. However, those are external forces after all and cannot represent your true strength."
"Although I am surprised at your rapid progress in cultivation, everyone below the level of a saint is an ant, and you are just a larger ant."
"Don't think that with Tongtian's protection, you can do whatever you want in front of me."
Hearing this, Luo Shu curled up a faint smile. He did not directly respond to Yuanshi Tianzun's ridicule, but turned his gaze to the Golden Spirit Mother beside him.
Then, he sent a message to the Golden Spirit Mother: "Master, have you sent a message to the Grandmaster? Right now, we alone cannot withstand Yuanshi's attack. The Grandmaster must come in person to resolve this situation."
When Holy Mother Jin Ling heard Luo Shu's voice, her expression stiffened slightly, and a hint of embarrassment and regret flashed in her eyes.
She had just been busy confronting Yuanshi Tianzun, and in her excitement, she had completely forgotten the crucial step of sending a message to Tongtian Jiaozhu.
At this moment, being reminded by Luo Shu, she suddenly realized her negligence.
Luo Shu looked up at the Golden Spirit Mother and saw her expression change, so he knew that she did not send any message to Tongtian Sect Master.
He sighed inwardly, but did not blame his master. After all, in such a critical moment, everyone might miss some details due to nervousness.
So, Luo Shu took a deep breath and sent a message to the Golden Spirit Mother again, speaking in a steady tone:
"Master, I have just crushed the jade slip and sent a message to my great master. Right now, we should try our best to delay Second Great Master and not confront him head-on. Everything will have to wait for my great master to come here before we can make a decision."
Upon hearing this, the Golden Spirit Holy Mother glanced at Luo Shu, her eyes flashing with admiration and satisfaction. She nodded and replied in a voice transmission:
"My disciple, you did a great job! I almost made a big mistake because of my momentary impulse."
"Now, just do as you said and try to delay the time and wait for Master to come."
After the two finished their conversation, they once again focused their attention on Yuanshi Tianzun.
At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun saw that Luo Shu ignored him and was whispering with Jinling Shengmu, and he couldn't help but become even more angry.
He snorted coldly, and his voice resounded through the sky like thunder:
"How dare you two youngsters look down on me like this! Today, I will make sure you know that the authority of a saint cannot be insulted lightly!"
As he spoke, Yuanshi Tianzun's figure flashed, and he was about to take action.
However, at this moment, Luo Shu suddenly spoke, his voice clear and loud:
"Second uncle, wait a minute! I have something I don't understand, and I hope you can explain it to me."
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun paused, frowned slightly, and said in a cold voice:
"What's the matter?"
Luo Shu smiled slightly, his expression calm and unhurried: "Disciple wants to know, have you ever thought about how to face the Grandmaster if you attack us today?"
The air around seemed to freeze, and everyone held their breath, waiting for Yuanshi Tianzun's response.
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun paused, as if Luo Shu's words had touched a nerve. He frowned slightly, a hint of complex emotions flashed in his eyes, and he said in a cold voice:
"Humph, are you threatening me? Do you think I can let you go just by bringing up Tongtian? Don't even think about it!"
Luo Shu shook his head, his smile still as gentle as before, like a breeze in spring, blowing away the restlessness and uneasiness in people's hearts.
"Second Master, you have misunderstood. This disciple has absolutely no such intention."
His tone was sincere and genuine, and every word seemed to carry a kind of magic that made people want to believe it involuntarily.
"I just feel that there is a deep friendship between you and your master, and it shouldn't be separated by some trivial matters."
"After all, you have gone through so many eras together and experienced countless hardships. Isn't this friendship worth cherishing?"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun was silent for a moment, as if he was recalling the years that Laozi and Tongtian had spent together.
His eyes softened a little, but then became firm again.
"Humph! Boy, you are quite good at stirring up emotions!" Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly, with a hint of displeasure in his voice, "But I will not be bewitched by you."
"The Chan Sect and the Jie Sect have become enemies in this kalpa. You killed my disciples and you still want me to be friendly with you?"
Hearing this, Luo Shu did not show any sign of panic.
"Second Master, you are right. The conflict between the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect is indeed inevitable."
"But that doesn't mean we can't try to resolve the feud."
He paused, and continued, "Besides, although my uncles and aunts have passed away, isn't this a kind of transcendence, a kind of rebirth?"
"Especially since the List of Gods is in your hands, how could you not know the significance of it?"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun's expression instantly turned gloomy, as if the sky was covered with dark clouds and a violent storm would erupt at any time.
"Bullshit!" Yuanshi Tianzun shouted angrily, his voice echoing in the air like thunder, making everyone's eardrums hurt.
His face was filled with anger, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire, staring at Luo Shu in front of him, "He is truly a good disciple of Tong Tian! He is so articulate, talking nonsense, and making unreasonable demands!"
This scene shocked everyone present.
As for the List of Gods, Yuanshi Tianzun knew his role.
Those who died could be included in the List of Gods. Although this list could make their souls immortal, it came at the cost of losing their freedom!
Those who are on the list will not only be unable to improve their cultivation any further, but will also be subject to the supervision of those who hold the List of the Gods.
In particular, Yuanshi Tianzun felt heartbroken when he thought that his proud disciple had to help Daozu's boy Haotian and would have nothing to do with the Chan sect from then on.
Thinking of this, Yuanshi Tianzun could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and the spiritual energy in his body surged as if it was about to explode at any time.
His eyes turned red and he stared at Luo Shu in front of him, as if he wanted to tear him into pieces.
Just as he was about to unleash a fierce spell to vent the anger in his heart.
However, at this moment, a breeze blew by, bringing the familiar breath of Tongtian Sect Master.
Yuanshi Tianzun's expression changed slightly. He looked up at the sky and saw a black shadow slowly descending in the sky.
The man was wearing a black robe and a jade crown on his head. His face was majestic and solemn. He was Tongtian Sect Master who hurried over from Jinao Island.
The arrival of Master Tongtian made the originally tense atmosphere instantly become subtle.
He swept his eyes across the crowd, and finally stopped at Yuanshi Tianzun. He smiled slightly, with a hint of ridicule in his tone:
"Yuanshi, are you sparring with my disciples? Why do you seem a little angry? Could it be that my disciple said something to upset you again?"
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly. He did not directly respond to Tongtian Jiaozhu's words, but instead turned his gaze to Luoshu.
He knew that the reason why Tongtian came here must be related to the person in front of him. I am afraid that today's matter will not end well.
Upon seeing this, Tongtian Jiaozhu smiled slightly, as if he could see through Yuanshi Tianzun's thoughts.
"Yuanshi, oh Yuanshi, why are you so angry? It's just the death of a few disciples, it's not necessary for you to be so angry."
Upon hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun frowned. He really didn't like Tongtian Jiaozhu's unruly attitude.
"Tongtian, stop making sarcastic remarks here! If it was your disciple who died, I don't believe you would still be able to make such remarks."
"Given your protective personality, I'm afraid you would have already been furious!"
Upon hearing this, Master Tongtian smiled even more.
"I want to protect my shortcomings? As everyone knows, who in the prehistoric world can protect their shortcomings as much as you, the Jade Purity Saint? Ridiculous!"
