In the Third Layer of the Ancestral Dragon Abyss, Ye Tianxi found Long Fengyang.

Long Fengyang’s eyes were unfocused. He looked utterly wretched.

His face was pale and haggard, without a trace of the air of a Saint Master. Instead, he looked like a down-and-out, desperate, and lonely middle-aged man.

"Everyone in this world treats you like a chess piece, to be used and casually thrown away. Your woman plotted against you! She used you to create a genius, and not only that, she fulfilled the wishes of that non-human thing, the Space Mirror—he’s Ye Tianling’s real father!

And you? Heh, you were just a backup! Not only did your woman betray you, but your two daughters also abandoned you. Your own race despises you, and the whole world is pointing fingers and cursing your name.

How does it feel to be betrayed by Ye Cangqian?

How does it feel to be ignored and abandoned by your brother, Duan Jiutian?

How does it feel to kneel before your failure of a test-subject son in front of everyone?

How does it feel to have your own son, the Taotie Divine Son, spray shit all over your face?..."

Ye Tianxi walked over, deliberately choosing the harshest words to needle Long Fengyang.

At first, Long Fengyang managed to remain indifferent, but gradually, his eyes began to turn blood-red.

"You have a mysterious power like the Hidden Dragon Shackles, so you might as well fall completely. Since the world calls you a Demon, then just go all the way—undergo a complete Demonization! Make those who looked down on you regret it! Make those who betrayed you kneel and beg for your forgiveness!"

Ye Tianxi continued.

As she spoke, she dragged Ye Yuemei and Yun Zhiruo out from a separate space within the Immortal Phoenix Secret Realm and threw them viciously to the ground. "Here," she snarled, "these are the women Ye Tianling likes. Plant the Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden in them. Torture them well. Let that useless son of yours, Ye Tianling, know that you, his father, can still control his life and death and make his existence a living hell!"

As Ye Tianxi spoke, the Dao Sound of the Five-Colored Divine Light continuously empowered her words, causing it to manifest.

This terrifying Dao Sound, combined with her nearly demonized Nirvana Power, gave Long Fengyang the most brutal and direct stimulation.

BOOM—

A crimson Flame burst into existence.

The Nirvana Flame spread out and sank into Long Fengyang’s body.

The Hidden Dragon Shackles on Long Fengyang’s body began a new level of transformation.

Long Fengyang, who had been kneeling, suddenly straightened his body until he was standing ramrod straight.

At the same time, the Blood Domain Demon Light reappeared on his face, making him look radiant.

It wasn’t that he didn’t hesitate, but spurred on by the Nirvana Dao Sound, the Energy of the Nirvana Secret Realm, and the Flame, and fueled by the long series of indignities and hatred from his past, he stood up once more.

"I am the Saint Master!"

"I, Long Fengyang, have sacrificed so much for the Dragon Race and for the world, yet no one understands!"

"All I wanted was to prevent the chaos of the Celestial Demon Blood Domain from plaguing the mortal world! What did I do wrong?"

"Why should I have to kneel to that little monster, that bastard?" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"I’ve done nothing wrong, so why does the whole world insult me?"

Long Fengyang suddenly shot to his feet.

RUMBLE—

The terrifying Shackles Power, originating from all the restraints on his body, seemed to shatter completely in that instant.

"You... are quite impressive! An Immortal Phoenix Peacock Bloodline? It is a perfect fit for Harmonization Dao with my Blood Domain Demon Light’s Talent Divine Techniques."

A vicious glint flickered in Long Fengyang’s eyes.

But Ye Tianxi was not afraid. "A son is useless in the end, and both your daughters are indecisive weaklings. How about I be your daughter instead? But don’t even think about me being your cultivation partner!"

Bloody light in the form of Order Chains flashed in Long Fengyang’s eyes. Having risen again, his Realm instantly shattered the Ancestral Dao Barrier, and he stepped into the level of a Sword Saint.

At this moment, he was unbelievably powerful.

His heart had completely sunk into the Hidden Dragon Shackles, and his will was fully consumed by the Blood Domain Demon Soul.

However, his own obsession was so strong that the will of the Demon Soul and his own will merged in a supreme union.

"Good, a daughter is fine too! I hope you won’t betray me. I have now gained the allegiance of the Demon Soul and am one of the Masters of the Blood Domain! If you betray me, your end will be beyond miserable!"

Long Fengyang’s voice was exceptionally cold and harsh.

"Heh, I just want to make Ye Tianling suffer, and make Ye Cangqian suffer!"

Ye Tianxi said with a savage expression.

Though she possessed an exquisitely beautiful, bewitching face and aura, she now appeared particularly terrifying.

"That is exactly what I want to do! You want to enslave them? Then I’ll show you my sincerity!"

Long Fengyang glanced impassively at Ye Yuemei and Yun Zhiruo. A vicious glint flashed in his eyes as the terrifying Power of Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden suddenly transformed into a Holy Killing Soul and shot viciously toward them.

The two women were under Imprisonment, their consciousness hazy. They had no way to resist.

In an instant, their Souls trembled violently, and they experienced a moment of clarity.

But after that moment, their pain intensified as they were plunged into the horrifying Ancient Soul Extinction Forbidden Shackles.

"Do you know where Ye Tianling has gone? We’ll brand this scene into a record and let him have a good look."

As Long Fengyang spoke, a vicious light shot from his eyes. He manifested the blood-red Hidden Dragon Shackles Power in the form of a lightning-like whip, like the whip of a thunder god, and lashed it viciously at Ye Yuemei’s and Yun Zhiruo’s Souls.

"AH—"

The extreme agony was completely unbearable, leaving them in excruciating pain.

Yun Zhiruo couldn’t take it. She was in so much pain that she passed out, her Soul nearly shattered by the Law Whip, on the verge of immediate Transformation Dao.

Ye Yuemei, however, endured the torture with chilling resolve. From beginning to end, even as her Soul was on the brink of shattering, she didn’t make a single sound.

Long Fengyang did not strike again. Killing them was meaningless to him.

"Ye Tianxi, Brother Tianling wanted to kill you... Only now do I understand that he was right. Back then, I even wondered if Brother Tianling was being a little too cruel. Thinking back now, I was so naive, so merciful. I finally understand why Brother Tianling is so ruthless. It’s because in this world, the people who are truly, truly worthy of your kindness are so, so few."

Ye Yuemei’s eyes were filled with deep regret—regret that her own naivete had led her into such a predicament.

’I don’t care about my own life or death—but my Brother Tianling definitely will! Aren’t they torturing me like this just to watch me suffer, project the image, and use it to provoke my Brother Tianling?’

"Oh? You know that now? But did you really think that if you hadn’t stopped him, your precious, already-crippled waste of a Brother Ye Tianling could have actually killed me? He was already at the end of his rope, and it was even highly likely he was about to undergo Transformation Dao, did you know that?

Otherwise, did you think he gave up on killing me just to give you face? Who do you think you are? He’s surrounded by women; you wouldn’t even make it into the queue! He has absolutely no real Emotions for you. When he held you, when he kissed you, his eyes were as cold as a stranger’s. Understand?!"
