After listening to Xiao Yan's words, Zhu Chen followed Wang Lin's signal and looked down at the ruins below.

At this moment, the smoke and dust on the ruins had mostly dissipated, and it was clear that Shi Yi was slumped in the rubble, his clothes were tattered, his body was covered in wounds, and his breath was extremely weak.

The Heaven-Mending Technique saved his life.

But at this moment, he was disheveled and completely different from his previous arrogance.

Zhu Chen had previously sensed that Shi Yi's aura was chaotic and unstable, and that he bore obvious fresh injuries, assuming it was from his duel with Shi Hao. He never expected…

"This guy is really stubborn, saying he's 'not afraid of group battles,' so we just gave him a little leeway."

Lin Dong then suddenly added a sentence.

His face still held a hint of lingering excitement, and he even deliberately rubbed his hands together.

Luo Feng, standing to the side, nodded in agreement with Lin Dong's point of view.

Zhu Chen's lips twitched slightly. He turned to Shi Hao beside him and asked, "Shi Hao, what happened? You didn't fight him?"

Shi Hao nodded, and then briefly recounted what had happened, from Shi Yi's provocation and threats, to Xiao Yan and the others taking action because they couldn't stand it, and then to how they all beat Shi Yi up together.

"Originally, I wanted to finish him off myself, but seeing how badly Xiao Yan and the others beat him up... I felt that it wasn't really necessary to personally beat him up."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chen's lips twitched involuntarily a few times.

Good guy!
Three against one, and they even 'reused' the opponent's Sky-Mending Technique several times...

That was an amazing move.

"He who sows his own evil will not escape punishment; Shi Yi is just too unlucky..."

Zhu Chen shook his head with a wry smile.

He knows Xiao Yan and his ilk all too well.

Shi Yi's psychological tactic of "feigning indifference to lure the enemy" might be effective against the world's prodigies who value manners and rules.

However, dealing with Xiao Yan, a transmigrator who climbed up from the bottom of the Dou Qi Continent and believed that "it's a fool not to take advantage of a bargain," Lin Dong, a reckless man who believed that "it's better to fight than to talk," and Luo Feng, a madman who fought his way out of the competition for survival in the universe... it would be utterly humiliating.

They don't care about 'the demeanor of the strong' or 'fair competition'.

Especially when the other party provokes first.

"Big brother, what are you laughing at?"

Seeing Zhu Chen laugh, Shi Hao asked a question, somewhat puzzled.

"It's nothing, I just think Xiao Yan and the others have a very unique way of doing things."

Zhu Chen's smile faded, and he looked at Shi Hao again, changing the subject seriously, "By the way, Shi Hao, Shi Yi is beaten up like this now, do you still want to kill him?"

Shi Hao remained silent for a moment upon hearing this.

He glanced subconsciously at Shi Yi, who was struggling to stand up in the ruins but repeatedly failed, and his eyes suddenly became somewhat complicated.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, "Actually, when I was in seclusion at the Kunpeng Nest, I had already come to terms with many things."

“My father and mother are both safe and sound now, and my grandfather has also returned to my side.”

"Those elders of the Martial King's Mansion who favored Shi Yi and stood by indifferently back then are either dead or crippled, and the Rain King's Mansion has also paid the price."

"Shi Yi's mother, the culprit, has already been executed. As for Shi Yi himself..."

At this point, Shi Hao's gaze fell on Shi Yi again. But this time, his eyes held less hatred and more scrutiny and indifference.

"It is certainly hateful that he took my supreme bone, but in the end, he was just a child who was guided by his mother and on whom the tribe placed high hopes."

"And now, the cultivation level and double pupils that he relied on are no match for us!"

"His pride and dignity, which he had always maintained, have just been completely shattered in front of the whole world..."

"To be honest, I don't hold a grudge about what happened back then anymore. All I want to do now is become stronger as soon as possible, then go to the Upper Realm and search for the whereabouts of the Willow God with you. That's what I want to do most right now."

Hearing Shi Hao's words, Zhu Chen felt an indescribable sense of admiration for him.

As expected of the future Desolate Emperor, he is never completely bound by personal grudges when doing anything.

"it is good!"

Zhu Chen patted Shi Hao's shoulder hard, his eyes full of admiration: "Shi Hao, I'm very happy for you that you think this way. A true strong person should have their eyes on the heavens, not be stuck in the quagmire of the past."

At this point, his tone suddenly became more serious: "Now that you have let go of your hatred, there is something I should tell you. Regarding Shi Yi... he is not without opportunities."

"Ok?"

Shi Hao was slightly taken aback.

He didn't understand what Zhu Chen meant.

Zhu Chen looked down at Shi Yi in the ruins below and slowly said, "In the Upper Realm, I met a person who was a true ancient double-pupiled being with unfathomable cultivation. She helped me when I was in trouble. When I descended to the Lower Realm, she told me that she had taken a liking to Shi Yi."

"What did you say? That ancient person with double pupils has taken a liking to Shi Yi?"

Shi Hao blinked in surprise.

"Correct."

Zhu Chen nodded and said, "That person with double pupils intends to take Shi Yi as his disciple and wants to take him to the Upper Realm to teach him. Before, I was worried about your grudge with Shi Yi and didn't know how to tell you, but now that I see you have let go of hatred, I think I can tell you about this."

Shi Hao fell silent.

This news came as a surprise to Zhu Chen.

He was momentarily at a loss for words.

Looking at Shi Hao's expression, Zhu Chen continued, "I'm telling you this news not so that you can immediately reconcile with him or interfere in anything. I just think that since you've let go of your grudges, and Shi Yi might have a different fate in the future, perhaps the two of you can turn enemies into friends!"

"After all, no matter what, the blood of the Stone Clan flows in both of your veins. You both possess talents that are difficult for ordinary people to attain. One was born with supreme bones, and the other was born with ancient double pupils. Your future should not be limited to this!"

"Fine, I'll tell you the truth. In this world, your real enemies have never been each other..."

Shi Hao frowned and interrupted, "I know. Our enemies are those ancient immortal sects in the Upper Realm who hate us, and those guys who besieged Liu Shen. Don't worry, once I conquer the Upper Realm, I will personally settle accounts with them..."

Zhu Chen looked at the innocent-looking Shi Hao and couldn't help but shake his head: "You're wrong, our real enemies aren't those people from the Upper Realm..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Hao was stunned.

"If it's not those people from the upper realm, then who is it?"

"It's from another land...and the people behind them..."
