Chapter 34 The Truth About Penglou

The immense energy continued to rage, reaching the three mosaic-like figures in an instant.

The three figures were shaken by the enormous energy and seemed to lose their signal, flickering continuously for several breaths before returning to normal.

Ying Yue and Wu Ren looked at that unparalleled figure, their hearts filled with joy.

This is the power of a cultivator, this is the power I should possess.

This immense power was enough to destroy the heavens and the earth, yet strangely, Ying Ao and his wife remained unharmed amidst this great destruction.

It turned out that Kuang Zheng had already diverted some of his forces to keep them outside when the attack began.

Otherwise, they would probably be ashes by now. Yingyue was overjoyed to see her parents unharmed. She leaped and flashed to their side.

At this moment, Ying Ao was unaware of everything happening outside. Due to the isolation, he couldn't even hear any external sounds.

He only realized what was happening when Ying Yue appeared beside him and he cried out in joy.

Looking at his daughter so close to him with disbelief, Ying Ao was stunned. He couldn't believe it was real.

It wasn't until they saw the devastated Yueyang Tower that Kuang Zheng and the others came to their senses.

At the same time, I was incredibly shocked, because everything before my eyes was truly breathtaking.

Is this still the same place? Where is the Yueyang Tower? Where are the streets?

What came into view was a scene of broken walls and ruins, resembling a disaster site.

The once neatly arranged buildings are now all reduced to rubble and broken tiles, as if they had been subjected to a violent explosion, or as if they had been bitten off by a terrifying beast.

He saw the same shock in his wife's eyes; they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

With such massive destruction, why didn't I feel anything? What's even stranger is that both of them were unharmed. It's all too bizarre.

The two could only turn their attention to their daughter, perhaps only this daughter who had shown amazing talent from a young age could give them the answer.

But Yingyue didn't say anything to them. Instead, she led the two back to Kuang Zheng and Wu Ren.

The ethereal voice saw that its meticulous plan had been easily thwarted, and that Penglou, which it had built up over many years, had been wiped out in one fell swoop.

He immediately flew into a rage: "You think you're so great just because you've dealt with these small fry? You're too naive. You haven't seen my power yet. I will tear you to pieces and grind your bones to dust!" His tone was full of madness.

Peng Lou and his companions' fury was a joke to Wu Ren. He simply laughed and said, "A few abandoned good-for-nothings, actually think they're the most important people? Heh..."

Upon hearing this, the ethereal voice flew into a rage. It roared maniacally, "What did you say? You damned human!"

Wu Ren laughed, "Heh... So you finally admit you're not human? I'd say you're nothing but useless things abandoned by Lü Chunyang back then, trash!"

The ethereal voice, upon hearing this, went mad: "Ah... What did you say? What? I'm going to kill you! Kill you!!!" Its tone was filled with hatred.

Wu Ren seemed not to hear this and continued, "The reason why Lü Chunyang abandoned you back then was because you were wicked and deserved to be abandoned."

However, life is truly unpredictable, and fate is cruel. Not only did you not disappear, but you were also struck by the calamity clouds, and by a twist of fate, you actually developed sentience.

Instead of being grateful, you devoted yourselves to cultivation in the hope of catching up with your master in the future.

Instead, he harbored resentment and vowed to destroy the Penglai planet before he would stop. His heart was truly despicable! Wu Ren was still furious when he finished speaking.

"What do you know? Why can everyone else do it, but we can't? Even his broken wooden sword was infused with a trace of true energy before it was abandoned. It's just a lousy wooden sword! Worthless. And what about us? We've followed him for three hundred years, a full three hundred years!"

He said he'd just throw it away, without even glancing at it again. Why? Why? ? ? ?" the ethereal voice cried out in a frenzy.

"Why? Do you really think you can get away with what you've done without anyone knowing?" Wu Ren said.

"What...what did we do?" the voice asked evasively.

“What did he do? Ha! You still have the nerve to ask? If it weren’t for you, how could Lü Chunyang have committed such a grave mistake?” Wu Ren said.

"What does his lewd behavior have to do with us? He abused 80,000 women, causing 3,000 of them to die from abuse—that's all his own doing!" The voice was hysterical.

"Heh... What a fine example of 'old habits die hard,' and 'you reap what you sow.' Even now, you're still trying to argue your way out of this. You're truly shameless!" Wu Ren said angrily.

“You were nothing more than a pill, a medicinal hoe, and a jade cup that he casually refined back then.”

Because of its long-term companionship, it has become conscious due to the influence of Taoist teachings.

This was originally a good thing, but you actually bewitched your master so that you could have already awakened your own intelligence.

During one of his meditation sessions, he was disturbed by his inner demons, and you took the opportunity to stir up trouble and bewitch him, causing him to commit such a heinous crime.

Afterwards, your master did not blame you, but took full responsibility.

He understands that it is truly remarkable that you have come to consciousness, and he cannot bear to see you perish.

I will continue to keep you by my side, trust you as always, and teach you the Tao.

But how did you repay him? In his final moments, instead of thinking of repaying him, you tried to seize his consciousness.

Like a dream of stealing the sky and changing the sun, even so, he still did not destroy you, but merely discarded you.

Having gone this far, what more do you want?

"I thought you would have a complete change of heart, but to this day you still show no remorse whatsoever. Instead, you resort to sophistry and are utterly shameless, worse than pigs and dogs!" Wu Ren roared angrily at the end.

Upon hearing Wu Ren's words, the ethereal voice became so terrified that it could barely speak. "You, you, who are you? Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible. You can't possibly be him, he's dead. Dead!" It eventually went completely mad.

Wu Ren laughed, "Heh...yes, he's dead. The brilliant strategist Lü Chunyang ultimately met his end under the ravages of fate. But the truth will never be forgotten. If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. Do you really think you can get away with it without anyone noticing?" Wu Ren was filled with anger.

Kuang Zheng and Ying Yue, who were standing nearby, finally understood the whole story. They had initially thought the three were some kind of demons or monsters. It turned out they were three spiritual treasures that had developed consciousness, but unfortunately, they had gone astray. Not only had they killed their master, but they themselves had also become neither human nor ghost.

No wonder I sensed a strong spiritual energy emanating from them. I never imagined that the three masters on the third floor of Penglou were not human, but rather three spiritual treasures transformed into human form.

This also explains why no one in Penglou has ever seen their true faces.

It's not that it's impossible, but that it's simply unseen.

The reason why Wu Ren knew so much remains unknown to both of them.

Upon hearing the affirmative answer, the three magical treasures roared in fury, "Since they are dead, they should disappear completely from this world!"

After saying that, he launched an attack.

The world seemed to change color in an instant, and for the first time, Kuang Zheng and his companions showed seriousness after witnessing the power of the Three Spirits.
