Chapter 2604: Farewell, Heavenly Venerable

igure, his eyes flickering.His lips twitched upwards slightly, then quickly subsided as if he had merely twitched.……On this day, the Sky-Peering Bureau announced the news of the extermination of spiri...This person's face was ashen, with disheveled hair and dirt smudged all over their features. They knelt on the ground, their hands bound tightly behind them.

But it was precisely his face that caused Fang Yu's expression to change, and a tremor ran through him.

This is…the Heavenly Venerable Xuan Tian!

Of course, at that time, I only fought against a wisp of the Upper Xuan Tianzun's will.

While the Xuan Tian Zun deity ascended from Earth over 2,500 years ago.

In that era, cultivators who could ascend were powerful beings, capable of shaking the world!

This is how Fang Yu came to hear the name Shang Xuantian Zun...However, he had never met him.

The true face of the celestial Xuan Tian Zun was first seen when encountering that will during the resolution of the Wushen sect.

This memory isn't too distant, so... Fang Yu recognized Shang Xuantian immediately from the crowd!

It's quite possible for a few people who look extremely alike to appear in such a vast world.

However, the possibility is extremely low.

Fang Yu believed that the man in front of him... was Shang Xuantian!

Just, Fang Yu could recognize Shang Xuan Tianzun, but the current Shang Xuan Tianzun couldn't recognize Fang Yu.

Because the one who fought Fang Yu initially was just a strand of his will left on Earth.

That memory did not exist in Shang Xuantian's mind.

"The Supreme Heavenly Venerable..."

Fang Yu looked at Shang Xuantian among the crowd, his brows furrowed.

"Fang Daren, what's wrong" Zhixi led the way ahead and saw Fang Yu suddenly stop. She asked in confusion.

And at this moment, the group of human cultivators who were bound and kneeling on the ground looked up at Fang Yu and Zhixi, their faces full of hope.

"Master, please buy me! I have reached the Transcendent Realm. I can do anything for you, please buy me!" A white-haired old man shouted loudly.

“Master, I have ascended to the Immortal Realm. I’m on the third step of ascension. I’m stronger than him. I am willing to go through fire and water for you. Even if you ask me to die, I will obey. Please buy me.” Another man, who looked younger, shouted.

"Master, Master, I may not be as accomplished as them, but I can serve you as a furnace. If you don't like that, then I can fulfill all your daily needs... Please, buy me and take me away. I'm willing to do anything for you..." A woman with disheveled hair struggled on her knees to get in front of Fang Yu, bowing down and begging.

At this time, over a hundred people behind them also surged towards Fang Yu and Zhixi, their words all roughly the same, begging Fang Yu to buy them.

This includes the Shangxuan Tianzun as well.

Fang Yu glanced at their clothes, which were tattered and covered in bloody wounds.

The ropes binding their limbs should be some sort of magical artifact, preventing them from releasing their spiritual energy and thus unable to repair the wounds on their bodies. They can only endure the constant onslaught of pain.

Judging from their words, this group of human cultivators ranged in level from the Dull Immortal to the Comprehension Realm… all stages were represented.

Those placed in the Netherworld, Great Celestial Star, or even Earth... they could all be considered top-tier powerhouses.

They could only become slaves on the Yunyun continent, kneeling and begging these "adults" of the Tiansha clan within this slave trading camp to buy them.

This group of slaves surrounded them, and Zi Xi's brow furrowed with concern.

"These slaves, if they weren't sold, would continue to be tortured within the slave camp. That's why they all hope to be bought and escape the torture," Zixie whispered an explanation to Fang Yu.

Fang Yu remained silent, not knowing what to say.

He knew the human race's situation on this continent was extremely difficult.

But before he experienced it firsthand, he couldn't imagine the difficulty.

And now, he saw it with his own eyes.

As human dignity, crushed into dust, worthless.

These humans within the slave camp lived lives worse than animals.

And this... is the true portrayal of humanity throughout the entire Yunmù Continent.

What are you doing Are you looking for death!

At this moment, a furious shout suddenly came from the side.

At the sound, the human cultivators who had surrounded them changed color and immediately stepped back, bowing their heads.

A figure strode forward quickly, clutching a long black whip in their hand.

He ran up to the group of humanoids, raised his whip in his hand and swung it down.

"

"Splat!"

"

This instantly slapped several human races in the face, causing them to scream in agony.

Fang Yu's eyes were extremely cold.

Zhixi noticed Fang Yu's gaze and immediately said, "Stop."

At that moment, the figure ahead immediately stopped.

He turned around, a lecherous smile plastered on his grotesque face. He retracted the long whip in his hand and swaggered towards Zhixi and Fangyu.

He bowed to Zhixi, fists clasped respectfully, and said: “I have met Saintess Zhixi. I hope what happened just now did not cause you any displeasure. These dogs are truly damned, daring to come forward and offend…”

"This is Fang Daren. I gave you a heads up before I came." Zhixi said lightly.

"Fang Daren! It's an honor to finally meet you." This man bowed again, his posture even more respectful.

"Fang Daren, this is Wang Tian shi I told you about. You can ask him anything directly." Zhixi introduced.

Fang Yu narrowed his eyes as he looked at Wang Tian, a coldness in his gaze. He said, "Are you a member of the human race"

Wang Tian shi was taken aback for a moment, then nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I am a human, but I have already belonged to the slave-trading camp..."

"Fang Daineng, let's find a quiet place to talk first." Zhixi said to Fangyu again.

Fang Yu turned to look at the group of bound humans behind him, and then asked Wang Tian, "What's the story with these humans"

“They're a fresh batch I just brought back, not even a month old. They haven't tasted hardship yet. Many slaves here stayed for a year or two and still weren't sold, that's real suffering! But it's their own fault, otherwise they wouldn't have been left unsold.” Wang Tian said viciously, “These dogs dared to offend Fang Daren and Zhixi Saintess. I will definitely give them a good lesson later…”

"Fang Daren, to avoid trouble, I didn't reveal your identity as a human to you." Zhixi transmitted her voice to Fang Yu, "So, in Wang Tian's eyes, you are just a powerful member of the Tiansha clan, so..."

"I understand." Fang Yu replied.

"Fang Daren, I will bring you inside for a cup of tea now" Wang Tian shi said again.

Fang Yu nodded and glanced again at the group of humans behind him, saying, "Don't touch these humans, just leave them for now."

"...Oh! I understand. Seems Lord Fang is interested in a few inside, then we'll finish our discussion and afterward, I'll bring you to choose your slaves." Wang Tian smiled.

Fang Yu fell silent.

Wang Tianshi then made a gesture of invitation, leading Fang Yu and Zhixi further inside until they reached a loft in the inner courtyard. They sat down in a room. his subordinates turned pale."Sir, how can we leave your side What if..." A subordinate said in horror."It's nothing, just a small lake. No one here can hold me back." Hua Yan said coldly.Upon hearin...
