"We saw that our young friend was in trouble, so we decided to step forward and help him."

The immortal was covered in cold sweat, which poured down his forehead as he eloquently recounted the events. As he spoke, his clothes were soaked with the cold sweat that seeped out.

"senescence."

The Lord of Night looked at the three of them, and gently raised his hand, causing the three Earth Immortals' Dharma bodies to decay into various colored viscous liquids, all of which flowed onto the ground.

The three earth immortals stood naked in place, forgetting even how to breathe, their bodies stiff and unable to make a move.

Facing the Lord of Night was no different from facing death. They felt an extremely intense pressure, their minds were completely blank, and their thoughts had come to a complete standstill.

They were no longer able to think, and even briefly forgot who they were.

"Do you think I would enjoy jokes?" The Lord of the Night's expression gradually darkened.

Do they think they're idiots? How could they possibly utter such a clumsy and mindless lie?

"Bah"

As the Lord of Night's anger surged, the hand that was stroking Su Yan unconsciously increased its pressure, and when the nails brushed against Su Yan's head, several strands of the snow-white fox fur were pulled out.

The sudden stinging sensation caused Su Yan, whose mind was already tense, to let out a soft moan.

It wasn't really pain; just a few hairs twitching. Su Yan was startled by the sudden movement of the Lord of the Night, who thought she was trying to pull out his head.

"."

The Lord of Night glanced at Su Yan, who quickly covered his mouth as he was being stared at.

"Taiyin Immortal"

Seeing that Su Yan had caused trouble and disrupted the Lord of the Night's killing mood, the aunt immediately thought to herself that things were going badly and hurriedly tried to cover for Su Yan.

"Fine. Get lost."

Looking at Su Yan's fat face, the Lord of the Night suddenly felt bored. He waved his hand, telling the three sneaky, lying Earth Immortals to get out of the way.

"toil."

The Lord of the Night was interrupted by Su Yan's soft moan, which brought him back to his senses from his anger. He spared the lives of the three Earth Immortals, but that was all.

They may be spared the death penalty, but they cannot escape the living punishment. For a very long time to come, they will be able to fully experience the hardships of human life.

Lies and deception are akin to betrayal, and moreover, the Lord of Night feels they are insulting his intelligence.

Chapter 245 Le Zilong Talks About Laughter

"Did I say something wrong?"

The crimson crescent moon hanging high in the sky gradually descended. Because of Su Yan's interruption, the Lord of the Night focused his attention on Su Yan and raised his hand to pinch his cheek.

Su Yan, whose face was being pinched by the Lord of the Night, looked at her with a slight look of confusion.

"No, you didn't say anything wrong." The Lord of Night released his hand, said this, and turned around to slowly drift towards the Imperial Capital Mountain.

It wasn't hard to guess Su Yan's origins. The Lord of the Night understood soon after meeting Su Yan that the snow fox in front of him must be the child of the nine-tailed fox Su Qing.

If Lian Qi hadn't acted foolishly and recklessly in the past, Su Yan should have been named Lian Yan. It's truly a pity.

The Lord of Night vanished from everyone's sight, the red moonlight disappeared from the earth, and the sun, which had been gone for a long time, once again hung high in the sky, allowing cultivators from the outside world to enter the area where Su Yan was located.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really tragic."

Standing in the void, Grand Tutor Jin raised his hand to fan away the pervasive stench of blood. A strange smile appeared on his face as he spoke, "Our little fox student certainly has plenty of time outside of class!"

As Grand Tutor Jin spoke, he landed together with Lian Qi and Hua Yu Zhenren, who arrived one after the other.

"Dean? What are you doing here?"

When Su Yan saw Grand Tutor Jin appear, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face, as if he was very surprised as to why Grand Tutor Jin was here.

"Senior Lian Qi, Aunt Hua Yu, Senior Zou"

Not only Grand Tutor Jin was present, but also some seniors that Su Yan knew and some that he didn't.

“Because it’s very interesting.” Grand Tutor Jin smiled and explained why he came here: “I also want to record it through the image crystal and add it to the future textbooks of Yongle Academy so that the students know how terrible it is to be uncultured.”

Grand Tutor Jin's visit to Blackwater City was certainly not due to the discount promised by his aunt.

He was just there to join in the fun, to see just how much trouble Su Yan had caused, and then to watch the brooding Lord of the Night go berserk and kill people.

"?"

Upon hearing Grand Tutor Jin's answer, a question mark slowly appeared above Su Yan's head, and the emotion of gratitude that had just begun to well up in her heart all shrank back.

"The Celestial Dogs and the Beast Taming Sect are sworn enemies. Any cultivator who touches any of the Beast Taming Sect's items will be relentlessly hunted down by the Celestial Dog clan."

Seeing Su Yan's uncultured expression, Grand Tutor Jin casually said, "Therefore, upon learning that the Beast Taming Sect has reappeared in the world, the Lord of the Night will surely be furious."

"Because the Beast Taming Sect was too arrogant, so arrogant that it touched upon the core interests of the demon race, to the point that when the demon race slaughtered the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, the human race chose to stand by and watch."

Grand Tutor Jin smiled and recounted a story from the past.

The world believes that the reason why the Beast Taming Sect declined was because they deceived the Lord of the Night, causing the Lord of the Night's cub to fall critically ill, which led to the Heavenly Dog's revenge.

But this is only one aspect; the deeper factor is the decision made by the higher-ups of the Beast Taming Sect.

The Beast Taming Sect initially implemented a policy to encourage powerful spirit beasts to mate and to select and cultivate their offspring, attempting to transfer the innate supernatural powers of divine beasts and exotic beasts to ordinary monsters.

It's important to know that the costs of raising mythical beasts, exotic beasts, and monsters are different, and mythical beasts have extremely low birth rates.

If the talents of exotic beasts, or even divine beasts, could be transferred to monsters through targeted breeding, it would be a great achievement.

Not only does it reduce breeding costs, but it also increases the production of artificial divine beasts and spirit beasts.

At that time, humanity will enter a new dimension!

Those who need storage can raise demons with the bloodline of the Heavenly Dog; those who need to travel long distances can raise demons with the bloodline of the Unicorn Green Ox; those who want unique clothing can raise demons with the bloodline of the Proud Insect; and those who want to avoid disasters can raise demons with the bloodline of the Sky-Gazing Roar.

Even various needs can be met through artificial divine beasts with bloodlines and spirit beasts!

Even extending one's lifespan out of thin air is not a problem!

This was the root cause of the destruction of the Beast Taming Sect. Back then, the decision-makers of the Beast Taming Sect stubbornly believed that what they were doing was a good thing that would benefit the people and the world, and that they would surely be able to rally the human race to deal with the demon race's crazy revenge.

However, the decision-makers of the Beast Taming Sect were mistaken. At that time, the human race had just begun to live a stable life. Although there were no external threats to pay special attention to, the cultivation world was cracking down on the ubiquitous Nightmare Suppression followers and did not want to start another miniature war between all races.

Both the human and demon races are exhausted and need to rest.

"While the Beast Taming Sect's plan is excellent, if artificial divine beasts and spirit beasts with innate talents are widely adopted, the human race may truly usher in a new era."

Grand Tutor Jin smiled and said, "But the human race did not. Due to a combination of factors, they all chose to abandon the Beast Taming Sect in sending out requests for help to various forces."

"The Beast Taming Sect perished as a result."

The plan proposed by the Beast Taming Sect is indeed good, but the Beast Taming Sect has no intention of giving up its profits.

They even tried to coerce other human cultivators, divine beasts, and alien beast groups. In addition, given the anti-war background and the frequent misdeeds committed by the Nightmare Town followers, no cultivator was willing to respond to the Beast Taming Sect's plea for help.

Everyone was busy with their own affairs, and the divine beast clan was also hunting down the Nightmare Town followers.

"The Tengu have a good relationship with the Beast Taming Sect," Lian Qi added. "They interact from time to time, and then the Beast Taming Sect took advantage of our trust to launch the first attack on our Tengu clan."

The Tengu clan possessed spatial abilities. In an era before teleportation arrays were interconnected, the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect relied heavily on the Tengu to facilitate communication with the demon race.

The relationship between the two sides was fairly good, and then the Beast Taming Sect took advantage of this trust to strike first against the relatives of the Lord of the Night.

The bloodline of the Lord of Night is the purest and the most powerful.

Having already decided to completely break off relations, the Beast Taming Sect kidnapped the Lord of the Night's husband and their offspring.

"When it comes to matters related to the Beast Taming Sect, the Ancestor's temperament might become a bit extreme, because at that time the Sect Master of the Beast Taming Sect committed suicide, and the Ancestor failed to achieve his revenge, harboring resentment in his heart ever since," Lian Qi explained to Su Yan.

"Aside from being a bit strict, the ancestor is generally very peaceful when he is a demon."

Lian Qi was worried that the ancestor might frighten Su Yan, fearing that Su Yan might equate the Tengu Clan with bloodthirsty monsters in his heart, so he made a special explanation.

The reason our ancestors were so brutal in the past was entirely because those cultivators wanted to seize the lineage of the Beast Taming Sect.

It doesn't involve matters of the Beast Taming Sect. Apart from being a bit strict, the Ancestor is not a bloodthirsty person.

"What a complicated relationship."

After listening to Grand Tutor Jin and Lian Qi's account, Su Yan felt like her brain was about to burn out.

It was originally thought that the massacre of the Beast Taming Sect was simply because they had offended the Lord of the Night.

Unexpectedly, the Beast Taming Sect's affairs ultimately led to a war between the human and demon races.

Moreover, seeing that Su Yan didn't like reading, Grand Tutor Jin deliberately told him some behind-the-scenes stories, such as the uneven distribution of benefits and the problems of the times, which almost made Su Yan's little head burn out.

Chapter 246 Seaside City

Su Yan had a rough understanding of the intricacies of the Beast Taming Sect.

I also understand why the Lord of the Night slaughtered all the cultivators the moment he appeared; it was because those cultivators wanted to profit from the Lord of the Night's suffering.

Taking advantage of the long-standing trust between the two sides, the Beast Taming Sect murdered the Night Lord's husband and offspring. Furthermore, when they attacked the Beast Taming Sect, the sect leader and some members of the management chose to commit suicide to avoid being tortured by the Night Lord.

The Lord of the Night did not come alone, but led a massive demon army to press on the border. If he fell into the hands of the demons, the high-ranking members of the Beast Taming Sect would surely suffer a terrible death. It would be better for him to go first, so that he could die without any dignity.

The Lord of the Night's revenge was not entirely successful, which has led to his current equal hatred for all cultivators who attempt to revive the Beast Taming Sect, as the Beast Taming Sect is a taboo subject for the Lord of the Night.

Anyone who dares to mention it in front of her will be punished.

.....................

The matter of the reappearance of the Beast Taming Sect has come to a temporary end. Hong Ling also went to pick up the Huang clan members who were forced to get involved in the reappearance of the Beast Taming Sect. Most of them were not able to participate in the struggle for destiny.

Before being captured by the pale golden beam of light, they were all thrown into the sacrificial prison to be used as nourishment.

This is why Su Yan has never met any of the Huang clan members.

"Let's go! Let's find a place to stay first. I hope you will do me the honor of joining us later, senior and fellow Daoist."

After reuniting with the Huang clan, Hongling returned to the group and invited her fellow Daoists to dinner.

Although the person was invited by her aunt, the incident was caused by her inviting her aunt to the banquet; otherwise, the little fox wouldn't have gotten involved in the Beast Taming Sect incident.

Hongling had to host this banquet, but Blackwater City was littered with dried corpses and red bloodstains that had been left unattended both inside and outside the city. Clearly, it was not suitable to host a banquet for the seniors and fellow Daoists.
