Chapter 440: Bygones
Three years ago.
Sages body was convulsing with pain and scrambled neural signals. He had no control over it, voluntary or involuntary. His heart had forgotten how to keep pace and his lungs werent breathing properly. If he wasnt such a high level cultivator he would be dead already. At Sages level, as long as his core and soul existed, he could continue to live on in some form or another. Repairing a destroyed body was difficult, but not impossible. Those at the Nascent Soul level completely fuse their soul and core, making them even more difficult to get rid of. Even if he had already learned to detach himself from the pain, he was still helpless to resist Guan Zhenyans newest poison. All the while, he was mentally describing just how it affected him to the man. He even had to delve into the pain for a while, experiencing it in order to give a detailed report.
Finally, after a few hours the poison had died down enough to allow him to regain control of his body. Carefully climbing back up to his feet he gritted his teeth, The poison has run its course. Now hand it over!
Nine years. Nine long years of testing a new poison every week.
Guan Zhenyan had an exceedingly smug and lazy smile on his face. Like he was a cat that just ate all the cream. It was a look that Sage had seen many times and grown to hate. No matter how harsh his regulations or demands were, he would always don that smile that showed how little he cared for Sages comfort or opinion. The origin of this chapter's debut can be traced to N0v3l--B1n.
Ahh, it seems youve earned the required amount. Ten million and one thousand Spirit Stones. Alright, here you go.
The pot-bellied boy wearing all white arrived a few minutes later. Pushing back his snowy white hair and looking at Sage like there was something on his face, Oh, so you still remembered I exist, huh?
He looked to the left and right and then stared at Sages forehead for a moment, Where is the mighty Guan Zhenyan?
The look on his face looked apprehensive, and he seemed to be forcing himself to act respectful despite the obvious displeasure he had saying it. Sage merely smiled and held up a finger to his lips, Shh. He has a seed inside my spirit, but he isnt watching right now. I struggled for many years and finally got the Universe Ring back from him.
Tao Ba looked like he shrugged off a weight, Oh good, that man is such a bore. You are so much more fun.
Without even any hinting Sage already bowed low, Please come with me, Great One! Ive already prepared for you a feast like no other to make up for being away for so long!
Suffice it to say, Tao Ba was very pleased with all the bootlicking and happily took part in the feast. Sage even went so far as to throw together a movie projector from his experimental parts and put on a show while Tao Ba was eating. Being forced to work for your landlord and paying endless fees and taxes without any control was far worse than just a little butt-kissing. After a night long feast and party, which Sage had some of the occupants of the Inner World come out to enjoy, he finally sat Tao Ba down and made his pitch.
He checked carefully to make sure Guan Zhenyan wasnt watching before he leaned in, I need your help. Please help me get away from that man!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
