CHAPTER 56: THE MASTER ARRAY

"Master, you finally chose to come to help this subordinate of yours. That man... he dared to kill Lin Moyu with both hands!"

Chu Jian didn’t know how to tell him; he had now completely ignored Chu Kuo’s words.

Chu Jian now showed a cold gaze towards Gu Liang; he seemed to think that he was much weaker than him.

"Are you Pangu? I previously sensed that you unleashed a great dao to defeat that demon. You’re truly very mysterious." Chu Jian now showed a nod; he seemed to be praising Gu Liang.

Chu Kuo initially showed a happy face, but he didn’t expect his master to be so bold in giving praise to Gu Liang.

Chu Kuo was now in a half-dead state; he looked as if he wished he could forget what had happened.

"M-Master! That man was the one who disrupted our plans. Why are you praising him?!"

Chu Jian was now in his calm state, and he chose to snap his fingers on one of his hands.

Chu Jian now showed his emotionless face; he now showed his killing intent towards Chu Kuo.

"Therefore, Chu Kuo, you have completely failed in carrying out the task assigned by me. And for that, I highly praise this person’s prowess. Is it wrong for me to give him praise?"

Chu Kuo couldn’t hold back his frightened face; he now chose to agree with his master’s words.

"You... you are right! I’ll gladly listen to your orders..." Chu Kuo now closed his eyes; he hoped he could forget what had happened.

Gu Liang couldn’t hold back his stupid face; he didn’t expect Chu Jian’s personality to be any different from that of an ordinary man.

Ha ha... Are you the Monarch of Darkness? I asked if I should kill your subordinates. But... I’m sure you know the reason I killed them, don’t you think?"

Chu Jian originally showed a calm face, but he saw that Gu Liang’s expression showed seriousness.

Chu Jian originally wanted to show his killing intent towards Gu Liang, but he saw a black ring in the shape of a dragon’s head visible in his hand.

"Eh? That ring... how did you get that ring?" Chu Kuo now showed a confused face; he now showed a serious look towards Gu Liang.

Gu Liang didn’t understand how to tell him at first, but he was choosy in revealing what happened.

"It was all because of one of the elders of the Ancient Demonic Sect. If not for me killing Feng Aotian, I don’t think that I would be able to make this storage ring my own."

Chu Jian now narrowed his eyes; he looked as if he hoped to snatch the ring back with him.

"Is that so? Alright. Pangu, I’ll take the ring and give it back to Long Chen." Chu Jian now showed his terrifying pressure; he looked as if he was preparing to launch his strongest attack.

A moment after Chu Jian released all his power, the sky above once again turned into dark clouds—it showed incredibly dense lightning.

Gu Liang couldn’t hold back his serious face; he knew it was impossible for him not to choose to release all his strength.

Gu Liang was initially prepared to assume his defensive stance, but he saw the figure of a cultivator appear in front of him.

That cultivator was a cultivator who was previously in his spiritual state; he was a figure who was much stronger than the experts of the Heavenly Monarch realm.

The cultivator showed his human form; he was no different from an old man at 60 years old.

The old man showed a serious face, as if he had stuck his sword into the side of Chu Jian’s neck.

"Master Chu, I beg you not to be too excessive. This person is not someone you can kill."

Chu Jian initially showed a strange face, but he felt his body get his fear.

Chu Jian now gritted his teeth; he knew he couldn’t take the storage ring in Gu Liang’s hand back with him.

Chu Jian now showed a gloomy face; he chose to turn his gaze towards Gu Liang.

"Ck! I understand! I know what you mean. I’m very sorry if I have to disturb this mortal world." Chu Jian now showed his ugly face; he chose to take Chu Kuo with him.

Chu Jian now showed a sharp gaze; he seemed to show his killing intent towards the old man.

"Before I leave, I would like you to answer me a question. Was this also predicted by Lord Venerable?"

The old man didn’t say a word; he seemed to be showing a small smile towards Chu Jian.

The old man shook his head; he now chose to ignore Chu Jian’s question.

"Who knows? Even his own followers don’t understand what their master is thinking. He’s a strange person."

Chu Jian couldn’t hold back his stupid face; he knew he couldn’t get an answer from the old man.

Chu Jian now showed a calm face; he chose to bring Chu Kuo back to the immortal realm.

As time passed, the old man was seen stretching out his hand in front of him. A moment after he stretched out his hand, a blue light appeared before him.

Gu Liang originally showed a wary face, but he didn’t expect the old man to give him a cultivator’s soul.

"That is the soul of a top-grade array master. I have learned that you wish to take it with you. I hope you can consider this as a form of compensation for what happened previously."

Gu Liang was now in a state of silence; he looked as if he were completely lost in thought.

Gu Liang couldn’t hold back his confused face; he didn’t expect the old man to choose to give him Lin Moyu’s soul.

"An array master? Is that a great title?" Gu Liang now showed a confused face; he now showed a serious face towards the old man.

The old man didn’t say a word; he looked as if he didn’t expect Gu Liang to understand the benefits of having an array master.

"Don’t you know what the array master’s nickname is? I think you have confined yourself for too long. However, I hope that you can make this man one of your subordinates. I also advise you to implant a trace of your dao into this man’s soul."

Gu Liang initially showed a doubtful face, but he saw the old man’s expression show a serious face.

Gu Liang didn’t say a word; he now chose to agree with the old man’s words.

"Okay... I’ll do it right now." Gu Liang couldn’t help but look nervous; he knew that the old man was extremely powerful.

Gu Liang now showed a calm face; he, without hesitation, implanted a trace of his dao into Lin Moyu’s soul.

Some time passed, and the old man seemed to choose to bring Lin Moyu’s body before him—he unhesitatingly put his soul back into his body.

Gu Liang didn’t show any reaction; he knew that the old man was extremely powerful.

Gu Liang now focused his gaze on Lin Moyu; he saw that he had now completely regained his mind.

"Argh! Please don’t kill me! Master!" Lin Moyu now showed a scream; he looked as if he had woken up from a dream.

Lin Moyu now looked around. He saw Gu Liang’s figure showing an emotionless face.

"Eh? Sir, how could I not die? Could you help me?"

Gu Liang couldn’t hold back his strange face; he now chose to focus his gaze on the old man.

Lin Moyu didn’t mind it; he now chose to turn to the old man.

Lin Moyu couldn’t hold back his nervous expression, and he now, without hesitation, lowered his body in front of the old man.

"You are... the envoy?! I really apologize for not welcoming you!"
