Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 873 - 847: The Foundation of Myriad Saints Valley
Chapter 873: Chapter 847: The Foundation of Myriad Saints Valley
The manner and tone of speaking are very important. The same words spoken by different people can have completely different meanings.
If it’s a beautiful girl speaking, even the fiercest words will lose their impact. If she’s acting cute, no matter how unreasonable the request is, it will be agreed upon.
Therefore, Tangyu’s dissatisfaction was not with the sect regulations, but with the arrogant attitude of the Law Enforcement Elder. Tangyu has always been one to yield to gentleness rather than force. After all, with his current strength, naturally, he possesses more confidence and pride. Given his current power, his status could fully rival that of an elder.
The Law Enforcement Elder acted, reaching out to grab Tangyu, intending to teach him a lesson.
Tangyu’s eyes turned cold, but he faced the Elder without any fear, directly throwing a punch at the Elder’s palm. The Elder became even more furious, how dare he retaliate. In his rage, the Elder increased his strength, initially intending to show mercy, but now he struck with full force.
Pang—
Their fists clashed in midair, emitting a thunderous boom. The terrifying power surged like floods towards the Elder’s arm, causing him to internally exclaim and retreat repeatedly.
This clash unexpectedly left him at a disadvantage.
The Elder’s face turned extremely unpleasant, but looking at Tangyu, his eyes became incredibly serious. He had never expected Tangyu’s strength to be so formidable, enough to gain the upper hand over him. Such power could elevate him to the elite ranks of Inner Sect disciples and earn the focus of Myriad Saints Valley. Frankly, Tangyu’s status was comparable to that of a regular elder.
This realization made him intensely uncomfortable.
Dong Zinian was left speechless, feeling as if his heart was struck by ferocious lightning. How could Tangyu be so powerful? Even the Law Enforcement Elder fell short against him.
Liang Youshan and the other two exchanged stunned looks, swallowing hard. They weren’t surprised by Tangyu’s strength; what left them dumbfounded was that Tangyu dared to strike an elder. This—was simply unheard of.
The Elder now found it hard to save face, his expression icy.
Tangyu, not one to hold grudges without reason, felt his anger dissipate somewhat after the exchange, saying, "Law Enforcement Elder, apologies for my offense earlier, it was out of necessity. I hope you can be generous."
Seeing Tangyu still somewhat exhibiting the demeanor of a disciple and providing an opportunity for compromise, the Elder’s expression slightly improved, though he still snorted.
Tangyu continued, "Law Enforcement Elder, the animosity between Dong Zinian and me runs deep. He humiliated me last time, and I am not one to hide my hatred. Dong Zinian has been in the Inner Sect all this time, so when I saw him just now, I acted impulsively. The law must accommodate human feelings, right? Inner Sect disciples can settle personal grudges at the dueling ground, correct? This incident was my fault initially, but if the Law Enforcement Elder insists on imposing sect regulations, it would deeply dishearten me. I might even consider leaving Myriad Saints Valley."
Tangyu spoke without a hint of threat, merely stating the facts.
If Myriad Saints Valley treats him unfairly, what’s the point of staying?
Speaking of talent, Tangyu considers himself extremely gifted. Besides, he has his own opportunities; frankly, even without Myriad Saints Valley, he can carve his own path. Of course, having a sect as a backing is advantageous, but the benefits aren’t enough to make Tangyu bow and scrape.
With strength comes dignity.
If he can’t even maintain his dignity, why stay?
Furthermore, if Tangyu wishes, the other eight Skies Beyond the Skies would eagerly accept him.
This is Tangyu’s current confidence.
The Elder now comprehended Tangyu’s identity; he had heard about Tangyu’s achievements. Tangyu’s strength exceeded his expectations, affirming Tangyu’s extraordinary talent.
Such an exceptional talent would undoubtedly be highly valued within the sect. Losing such a talent due to his stubbornness would be hard to justify to the higher-ups.
Though still displeased, he could only endure.
"I’ll let this slide as it’s your first offense and you don’t understand the sect regulations. I hope it doesn’t happen again." With that, the Elder turned and left.
Tangyu’s lips curled into a cold smile, it seemed the Elder was quite considerate, accepting the given compromise. If the Elder had been obstinate, Tangyu wouldn’t have shown mercy.
At worst, he could leave Myriad Saints Valley.
Tangyu glanced at the despairing Dong Zinian, sneering coldly, "Today’s score ends here. If you provoke me again, I guarantee you’ll die horribly. Feel free to bring helpers, but fail to kill me, and you will perish miserably."
With that, Tangyu led Liang Youshan and the others away, leaving Dong Zinian clenching his fists in fury behind.
"Tangyu." As soon as Tangyu left, a voice came over, and Xie Lei chased after him.
Xie Lei also looked at Tangyu with a strange expression and said, "What happened just now? I saw the Law Enforcement Elder storming off angrily. And didn’t you beat Dong Zinian to a pulp?"
Tangyu curled his lips and said, "Yeah, I happened to run into him, so I taught him a lesson. It felt good."
"Cough." Xie Lei almost choked: "You’re quite ruthless, daring to act on your own in the Inner Gate. So the Law Enforcement Elder suffered a loss at your hands? I’ve never seen the Law Enforcement Elder take a loss before."
Tangyu shook his head and said, "It seems the Law Enforcement Elder’s strength is average. Otherwise, I would’ve been the one to suffer."
Xie Lei said, "Cough, you don’t know. It’s not that the Law Enforcement Elder’s strength is average, it’s that you’re too much of an Evil Demon. Do you think every Elder is at the Eighth or Ninth Layer of the Earthly Realm? The Law Enforcement Hall has more than one Elder; there are three Elders in total, and the one from just now is the weakest. He’s called the Third Law Enforcement Elder. If the Great Elder came in person, you’d definitely be the one getting bullied."
Tangyu was enlightened: "I see, I thought the Law Enforcement Elder was weak."
Soon, a group of people reached the palace assigned to Tangyu and his companions. This will now be their private territory. Without their permission, no one is allowed to forcibly enter.
Entering the palace, Tangyu invited Xie Lei to sit down and took out some wine from his Qiankun Bag: "Brother Xie Lei, just some casual drinks, nothing special to entertain you with."
Xie Lei waved his hand and said, "Why be so polite between us? By the way, I have something to tell you. The Outer Sect Disciple spots for your four disciples have been arranged. Just take them to the Outer Sect Affairs Hall to complete the procedures."
Tangyu nodded and said, "Alright, thank you."
Tangyu signaled Wang Wei and Wu Fei to handle this matter. The two left happily.
Xie Lei said, "Tangyu, you must be quite unfamiliar with Myriad Saints Valley since you’ve just entered the Inner Gate. I have some free time, so let me give you a detailed introduction. Bring out that booklet; it has the map of Myriad Saints Valley. I’ll explain everything to you in detail."
Tangyu was delighted: "That would be wonderful."
He immediately took out the booklet and opened the map.
Xie Lei began pointing to the map and introducing: "In general, our Myriad Saints Valley is divided into four districts: ’East, South, West, and North’. The Eastern District, ruled by the Azure Dragon, is the most prestigious. The Eastern District is where the Valley Masters live and cultivate. For us disciples, it’s forbidden territory; no one is allowed to enter without permission, or the consequences will be severe."
"Hmm, Valley Masters?" Tangyu was puzzled.
Xie Lei laughed: "Haha, I was just as confused as you were before. Let me explain our Myriad Saints Valley’s foundation to you. Actually, Valley Master is just a title, not representing the ruler of Myriad Saints Valley. Powerhouses of the Imaginary Realm can be entitled as Valley Masters. Our real ruler is respected as the Great Valley Master. All others are simply titled Valley Masters. Currently, we have over ten Valley Masters."
"Earthly Realm Sixth Layer and above can be titled Elder, while those below the Sixth Layer are titled Stewards. The rest are Inner Sect Disciples. Regarding Earthly Realm experts, Myriad Saints Valley has quite a few. I don’t know the exact number, but altogether, there should be no fewer than six hundred."
Tangyu was enlightened, having gained a comprehensive understanding of Myriad Saints Valley’s strength. Its foundation is indeed strong.
Of course, in the entire Ancient Martial World, Myriad Saints Valley and Jingshan Sixteen Caves have the most numerous members. Other Nine Heavens and Ten Earthly Forces have fewer members, but they are all elites. Ultimately, it still depends on the number of strong individuals in comparison.
In Nine Heavens and Ten Earthly Forces, the strength of the Imaginary Realm determines the overall power.
Among the Ten Holy Land Forces, the Imaginary Realm experts are only one or two.
Even in Jingshan Sixteen Caves with so many members, there are only two Imaginary Realm experts. Therefore, Jingshan Sixteen Caves, despite being strong, cannot compete with the Nine Great Heavens, and that’s the gap.
Xie Lei continued: "Then there’s the Southern District, where the Elders and Stewards reside and practice. You know the Western District, where we Inner Sect Disciples live and train. As for the Northern District, it’s the main cultivation center, holding much of Myriad Saints Valley’s foundation. You should rest first, and then you can visit the Northern District. It also serves as a comprehensive area, including some entertainment facilities similar to the Outer Sect. There’s nothing else."
Tangyu nodded, having a clearer understanding now and feeling less lost.
Xie Lei stood up and said, "Alright, I’ll take my leave. Get familiar with the environment here. If you need anything, come find me; I live right here." Xie Lei pointed to a palace on the map.
Tangyu said, "Alright, I’ll look for you when I’m free."
"Okay, I’m leaving." Xie Lei smiled.
"No need to see me off." Tangyu grinned and sent Xie Lei off, feeling relieved.
The Inner Gate should be the place for his rise.
