Chapter 407: Don’t Come Begging Me

Despair flickered in the eyes of the Profound Origin Sect members.

"Junior Brother Shen Xuan, you’re usually the one with all the ideas. What should we do now?"

"Yeah, Junior Brother Shen Xuan. All we can do here is wait to die."

Two of them couldn’t help but look at Shen Xuan and send him a voice transmission. It seemed they thought he might have a plan.

"Let’s wait."

Shen Xuan said, his expression calm.

"Wait? Shen Xuan, is that your brilliant plan? So many people in the sect look up to you, but is this all you’ve got?"

Hearing Shen Xuan’s words, one of the Profound Origin Sect members sneered.

"Senior Brother Shi Lu, how can you say that?"

"None of us can get out right now. We should be sticking together."

A few people, clearly siding with Shen Xuan, spoke up for him.

"Hmph!"

The one who spoke, Senior Brother Shi Lu, was a short but stocky young man. He snorted coldly. "You’re still defending Shen Xuan? My family is a Tri-System Deities Divine Clan, and my father is the Patriarch. No news can get out right now, but after some time passes and my father realizes I’m missing, he’ll definitely find out I’m here. When my family puts in some effort, I’ll have a chance to leave. When that time comes, I can just say you’re from my sect, and you’ll have a chance to get out too."

"This..." Hearing Shi Lu’s words, the ones who had spoken up for Shen Xuan fell silent.

They really did want to get out of here.

As for Shen Xuan, they knew he was from Earth. Earth had produced a peerless genius, Li Yang, but its overall strength was incredibly weak. Besides Li Yang, it had no one else of note.

Would Li Yang of the Human Race really come to rescue this one person from Earth, Shen Xuan?

"Hmph. Shi Lu, at a time like this, you’re still in the mood to stir up conflict within the sect? Isn’t it just because Junior Brother Shen Xuan surpassed you and won that reward in the past?"

A young man next to Shen Xuan sneered.

"Haha, Hao Yuan, go ahead and side with Shen Xuan. Just don’t come begging me when I get out of here," the short, stocky young man, Shi Lu, sneered.

He had never been able to stand Shen Xuan, but Shen Xuan had never paid him any mind.

The more it was like this, the more he disliked Shen Xuan, wishing for nothing more than to see him humiliated.

The few people present were clearly divided into two camps. Two stood with Shen Xuan, while the rest sided with Shi Lu.

Through all this, Shen Xuan’s expression remained unchanged.

He thought to himself, ’Shao Jie has probably told Li Yang the news by now, right?’

Once Li Yang knew, he would surely find a way to come here. That was why Shen Xuan wasn’t particularly worried.

’But did the Beast Origin Sect get the Soul Awakening Grass?’ Right now, Shen Xuan’s greatest concern was undoubtedly the Soul Awakening Grass.

...

"We’ve arrived at the Yangyuan Empire again."

Meanwhile, Li Yang and the others traveled quickly, soon arriving in the Yangyuan Empire from Earth.

The Yangyuan Empire’s star region was the absolute center of the Yangyuan Star Continent, holding more than ninety percent of the Star Continent’s power!

"Junior Brother." A figure flew over from the distance. His fiery red hair burned like a flame. It was Jun Yue.

"Sorry to trouble you this time, Eleventh Senior Brother," Li Yang said, looking at Jun Yue.

Jun Yue had offered to accompany him to the Beast Origin Sect this time.

"Haha, I had nothing better to do," Jun Yue said with a laugh.

The two exchanged a few simple words, then Jun Yue said, "The Beast Origin Sect is an hour’s journey from here..."

They chatted as they traveled, and another hour passed quickly. Li Yang and his group had finally arrived outside the main gates of the Beast Origin Sect.

ROAR. The faint sounds of ferocious beasts could be heard.

"Junior Brother, the Beast Origin Sect specializes in raising ferocious beasts. They can even cultivate large numbers of beasts at the Peak of World Realm and keep them under complete control. Many factions within the Yangyuan Empire have traded for ferocious beasts with the Beast Origin Sect. When it comes to the ability to raise beasts, the Beast Origin Sect is number one in the Yangyuan Empire."

"That’s why everyone is willing to tolerate the Beast Origin Sect’s temper."

’Ferocious beasts at the Peak of World Realm?’ Li Yang was surprised.

The higher a ferocious beast’s realm, the rarer it was. The Peak of World Realm was the strongest level below the Deities. To be able to cultivate such beasts in large numbers... one had to admit the Beast Origin Sect was truly capable.

As they were talking, just as Li Yang was about to ask how to enter the Beast Origin Sect, a figure suddenly flew over from the distance. The person looked at Jun Yue and said directly, "Lord Jun Yue, as I said before, the Sect Master and others have given the order. The sect is currently closed and not receiving visitors."

Apparently, Jun Yue had already been here once and, judging by the result, had been turned away.

Jun Yue smiled. "This time, it’s not me. It’s my junior brother who wishes to enter the Beast Origin Sect."

"Junior brother?" Hearing this, the man who had come over turned his gaze to Li Yang.

His eyes narrowed slightly. He clearly felt that Li Yang looked a little familiar.

"Hello, I am Li Yang. I have come to visit your esteemed sect on a certain matter," Li Yang said.

"Li Yang? Li Yang of the Human Race’s Eternal Saint Hall?"

Hearing Li Yang’s words, the middle-aged man’s expression changed slightly.

He remembered now.

After a slight pause, the middle-aged man said directly, "Young Master Li Yang, please wait a moment. I will go and report."

It was one thing to block Jun Yue, a Tri-System Deity, at the gate. But to dare to block Li Yang—someone who would, at the very least, become a Four-Element Deity in the future and even had a high probability of becoming an Emperor—was simply courting death.

Even if the Beast Origin Sect was closed, they couldn’t possibly turn away someone with such a powerful background.

"Thank you for the trouble," Li Yang said.

He, Jun Yue, and the others waited.

"Li Yang, there seems to be something wrong with this planet."

While he was waiting, Soul Ink’s voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"Something wrong?" Hearing this, Li Yang was taken aback. "Soul Ink, what did you discover?"

"I’m not sure yet. I’ll keep looking," Soul Ink said, then fell silent, saying no more.

...

Within the Beast Origin Sect, a middle-aged man in a black robe sat cross-legged in meditation. He had black runic markings on his face and exuded a cold aura.

This middle-aged man was none other than the Sect Master of the Beast Origin Sect, Leng Wu, a Tri-System Deity.

He even possessed a ferocious beast with the power of a Tri-System Deity!

Furthermore, he could also cultivate large numbers of ferocious beasts at the Peak of World Realm.

"Hm?"

While he was meditating, Leng Wu suddenly looked outside and said in a deep voice, "What is it?"

"Sect Master, I have an urgent matter to report! The monstrous genius of the Human Race’s Eternal Saint Hall, Li Yang, has come to visit," a voice called from outside.

"Li Yang?"

Hearing this, Leng Wu furrowed his brow slightly.

’What is Li Yang doing here?’ He and Li Yang had never crossed paths before.

After a moment of thought, Leng Wu stood up directly and said, "I understand. Come with me to receive Li Yang."

"Yes, Big Brother," the Deity outside replied hurriedly.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

One after another, Deities flew out, heading toward the entrance of the Beast Origin Sect.

"It’s the Deities of the Beast Origin Sect."

"Where are those Deities going?"

Meanwhile, the people working in the Black Water Pool all looked up at the sky, watching the procession of Deities with awe, but also with hatred, in their eyes.

This damn Beast Origin Sect didn’t treat them like human beings at all.

But they also yearned for the Deities of the Beast Origin Sect to show great mercy and let them go.
