Chapter 235: I Must Be in the Wrong Place

Gongshu Dijie was completely dumbfounded. He knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with shock and fear.

He felt that Li Yu was like a god, and he was that ant, that speck of dust.

The instinctive reverence made his heart tremble in fear.

The few immortals who accompanied him did not face Li Yu’s pressure directly.

However, they were also shocked by Li Yu’s extraordinary appearance until their faces turned pale. Their legs went limp as they stood at the side and trembled.

Furthermore, they could sense the extraordinary auras of the two people behind Li Yu. They were immortals countless times stronger than them.

Li Yu was satisfied with Gongshu Dijie’s reaction, and he was also satisfied with his new ability. It was simply necessary to show off.

He looked at Ji Tianchang and the others, who were still kneeling, and said, “No one says that mortals have to kneel to immortals. All of you, stand up!”

Ji Qinglan hurriedly stepped forward to help his father up.

Ji Tianchang was grateful. He knew that with Li Yu around, everyone in the Immortal Martial World could stand tall and live.

This was also the reason why they could remain calm even when facing this group of immortals.

Li Yu was the backbone of all life in this world.

At this moment, the hearts of the Ji Family members present were heavy.

Although they knew that Li Yu was extraordinary, it was satisfying to see that the high and mighty man, who had been bossy not long ago, was frightened to the point of kneeling on the ground by a single word from Li Yu.

Li Yu looked away, and the pressure on Gongshu Dijie weakened significantly.

Gongshu Dijie, who had recovered from his shock, only had one thought in his mind.

I must be in the wrong place. This can’t be the lower realm.

How can there be such an extraordinary and terrifying expert in the lower realm?

Am I crazy? Or is the world crazy?

“Who are you?” Li Yu looked at Gongshu Dijie and asked.

“We, we are members of the Gongshu family of the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm’s Ancient Family. We are here today to find the Sons of Destiny. Our family is willing to invite all the Sons of Destiny to become our Gongshu family’s retainers!” Gongshu Yujie replied with a trembling voice.

“What level is your family in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm?” Li Yu asked.

His words confirmed that this person was not from the Immortal Realm. This was even more shocking. How could there be such an extraordinary person in the lower realm?

‘Did times really change?’

‘Is the lower realm already filled with Golden Immortals and Saints?’

However, he suddenly understood something.

Why did those mortals not look at him with any shock or fear?

They had already seen immortals and immortals stronger than him.

“Immortal Venerable, our Gongshu family is one of the strongest families in the Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm. It’s also the top family!” Gongshu Yujie replied truthfully.

He was not bragging. The Gongshu family was definitely the top family and one of the strongest factions in the current Forsaken Heaven Immortal Realm.

“Hmm, not bad. Is your family searching for the Sons of Destiny?” Li Yu asked.

“Indeed. Our master appreciates talent and is willing to recruit talented people to develop the family together…”

“Yes, I admire talent too!” Li Yu nodded. “Which one of you has the lowest status in the family?”

Li Yu’s unreasonable words puzzled everyone. They looked at each other. Who was willing to admit that their status in the family was low?

However, in the face of Li Yu’s question, they immediately pushed out someone. “Him! He has the lowest status!”

Li Yu looked at the guy who looked like a punching bag and said, “Go back and tell your family head that I want to make a deal with him. Now, there are one, two, three… five people here, so I’ll stay. Please invite him to bring the Sons of Destiny over for the exchange. One for each person, the time limit is… three months. Our sect doesn’t raise idle people. If it’s late, I’ll clean up the sect!”

Li Yu’s words delighted the person who had been pushed out, and the expressions of Gongshu Yujie and the others changed drastically as they turned pale with fright.

You call this a deal?

This is kidnapping and blackmail, okay?

What kind of trick is this?

Gongshu Dijie was stunned for a moment and could not react in time.

Ji Qinglan, Elder Nie, Ji Tianchang, and the others looked at each other in surprise.

They finally understood Li Yu’s intention for releasing the news. He also wanted to find those Sons of Destiny, but he was unwilling to search for them himself.

Therefore, he took the opportunity to attract these powerful and well-connected Immortal Realm factions to serve as free labor for him.

This method of getting something for nothing was really in line with his style.

For some reason, Ji Tianchang and Yu Feng found this scene familiar.

“Immortal Venerable, w-what do you mean by this?” Gongshu Dijie was dumbfounded. Were the tricks of the mortals in the lower realm so deep?

Am I getting robbed instead of robbing?!

Furthermore, Gongshu Dijie was panicking. He knew that if the family head heard this news, he would definitely be furious and might even think that they were incompetent.

He might become an abandoned son of the family and die here.

“Shut up!” Li Yu’s order was repeated, and Gongshu Dijie was instantly silenced by an invisible force.

“Did you hear what I said?” Li Yu looked at the Gongshu family’s punching bag and asked.

“Remember, let our family use the Sons of Destiny to exchange for them. Don’t worry, Immortal Venerable. I’ll definitely report your words to our family master!” The punching bag suppressed his laughter, feeling like he was about to laugh out loud in the next second.

“Okay, you may leave!” Li Yu said.

The punching bag rushed out of the hall in high spirits and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Li Yu looked at the trembling Gongshu Yujie and the others with ugly expressions. “Don’t just stand there. Come with me!”

Gongshu Dijie wanted to cry but had no tears. He was a Golden Immortal. He thought that he could dominate the lower realm and enjoy the benefits of power and status.

In the end, he had not even enjoyed himself for three minutes before he became a prisoner who could not even keep his life.

I have to think of a way to escape. I can’t just wait for death here!

He was well aware that the family head would never use the Sons of Destiny to exchange for them.

The best outcome would probably be to send a Pseudo-Saint to save them.

However, Li Yu’s strength might only be possible if the family head and the top few in the family came personally.

Would the family head descend to the mortal world for a group of nobodies like them? Obviously not.

Therefore, there was a high chance that they would be destroyed by Li Yu.

Gongshu Dijie and the others were brought back to the Nine-tailed Mountain by Li Yu, but he did not bring them into the sect. Instead, he brought them to the mountain gate.

After all, he did not want these people to know how extraordinary his sect was.

“All of you can just stand here without moving!” Li Yu’s words were law.

Their bodies instantly stiffened as if they were restrained by an invisible force and could not move at all. It was as if their bodies were no longer theirs, and even their eyeballs could not move.

Other than his consciousness, he could not control any magic power or divine sense.

They stood on the spot like statues.

Ji Qinglan and Elder Nie were shocked by the changes in the few of them, but they knew that Li Yu had probably obtained another unbelievable reward from the Heavenly Dao.

After all, they naturally sensed Li Yu’s extraordinary change.

Li Yu nodded in satisfaction when he saw Gongshu Dijie and the others become statues. The combination of the Heart of Heaven and Earth and the Great Dao Golden Body was really interesting.

It would be even more fun if he could obtain the Creator’s ability at some point. With a thought, he could turn these guys into pendants or bonsai plants.
