Comprehension Ability: I Forge a Villainous Longevity Family

Chapter 735: Chapter 530: The Unlucky Shi Hao

The initial meeting between Chen Wanhong and Tihu wasn’t very delightful.

This was mainly due to the Celestial Saint, who as the Palace Master, had some insights into Chen Wanhong’s Divine Technique ’Dream Awakening’.

Of course, at the time, the Celestial Saint’s methods were still gentle, and he did not directly attempt to refine Chen Wanhong into a Human Pill, but rather had Chen Wanhong repeatedly demonstrate it for him!

The specific method was to repeatedly throw Chen Wanhong into perilous situations, and then have him trigger the Divine Dream Awakening.

It sounds absurd, but some people are just that absurd, and in reality, things even more absurd than this happen quite often.

For example, after experimenting with numerous Dream Awakenings, the Three Great Sacred Lands realized there was no way to learn it, so they stopped bothering Chen Wanhong, and during this period, Chen Wanhong astonishingly cultivated all the way to the Peak Realm, even comprehending the Longevity Tao Fruit of Dream Tao ahead of time, leaping to become a Longevity Master, only second in status to the Longevity True Monarch.

Another instance, when Chen Wanhong, full of resentment from being tormented by the Three Great Sacred Lands, learned he was finally going home, he, fueled by anger, randomly grabbed a new disciple in the Celestial Saint Palace, then threw him into a tiger’s den to be eaten, only to ’transform’ him back using Dream Awakening.

Yes, that unlucky fellow’s name was Tihu, who is now the Acting Elder True Monarch Tihu of the Celestial Saint Palace!

Absurd, isn’t it?

Absurd.

But realistic?

Very realistic.

Tihu was able to become a Longevity True Monarch not because of the unlucky encounter of being grabbed by Chen Wanhong in his youth, but because he already displayed exceptional talent even as a child, which was why he caught Chen Wanhong’s eye during the random selection.

This is a matter of cause and effect.

Perhaps even Chen Wanhong himself did not expect that his casual choice would lead to catching the Tihu, who now almost holds half the authority of the Holy Master in the Celestial Saint Palace, but it truly was a kind of destiny.

A wind of karma!

"Inform the team setting out for Jiangzhou to hold for a moment while I report to the Patriarch; this time, I will lead the team personally to Jiangzhou."

"Ah? Master Tihu, you personally...."

"Of course, I must go personally. An old friend unseen in nearly two thousand years returns; would it not chill the old friend’s heart if I, Tihu, do not meet him?"

While speaking, Tihu carried a smile tinged with a chilly, sinister intent that sent shivers down one’s spine.

It’s evident that even someone like Tihu cannot be entirely free of resentment towards the one who caused him psychological trauma back then.

The love and hatred between Tihu and Chen Wanhong is entertaining to many.

Upon understanding the cause and effect, everyone holds a humorous expectation for the future development of this storyline.

No one thinks Tihu will really kill Chen Wanhong.

But a minor punishment for major misconduct is certainly inevitable.

After all, if given the chance to take revenge on a childhood nightmare, wouldn’t one be foolish not to take it?

So, the question arises, is Tihu a fool?

...

The world won’t stop progressing due to the absence of a certain person.

The Celestial Profound Realm without Chen Zhixing will still continue to evolve according to its rules.

Just like when Ziwei Mountain was sealed, there would still be another branch of the Chen Family, inheriting from Ancestor Chang Feng, to shoulder the responsibility, ensuring the family’s name continues.

Of course, it can’t entirely be said like that.

At least every Chen Family remembers they have someone as strong as Chen Zhixing, thinking of him, pondering on him, isn’t it?

It could be considered a way of leaving one’s mark on the world, right?

Although the current Chen Zhixing doesn’t need this.

So, another question arises, what is Chen Zhixing doing now?

Teaching a disciple.

Literally.

Using a stick to teach!

"Ah!!!"

"Why are you screaming! Did I hit you wrongly?"

"Ah!!! Master! But you’re using a thorny vine!!!"

"Thorny is exactly right. Otherwise, how would it hurt you and teach you a lesson?!"

In Divine Wood Spring City, at Chen Zhixing’s residence.

Chen Zhixing held a vine in one hand, pressing Shi Hao’s nape with the other, swinging the vine hard at Shi Hao’s back recklessly.

This was the first time Chen Zhixing laid hands on Shi Hao.

There was no other way.

This child couldn’t be left unpunished any longer.

Chen Zhixing believed the act of saving people was due to this child’s kindness and certain calculations.

Being cowardly against enemies, Chen Zhixing could also accept, as it was the first time witnessing an actual battlefield, and he didn’t have high demands of Shi Hao.

But....

Seeing the green light disappear immediately after his whipping caused wounds on Shi Hao’s back, a trace of despair flashed past Chen Zhixing’s eyes.

According to the guy named Zhang Wen, who traveled with Shi Hao, after Shi Hao showed cowardice against the enemy, he led Zhang Wen back to the Cyan Wood Longevity Realm and was bewitched into deeply fusing with the Realm Spirit there.

Thus, there was no avoiding a beating!

Because of some inexplicable fear, he listened to the bewitchment of mysterious things. Sure, fusing with the Divine Format of the Cyan Wood Longevity Realm could grant Shi Hao powerful strength in a short time, strength capable of altering the battlefield’s situation, indeed a promising choice.

But Shi Hao chose not the Enlightenment Technique, but the complete fusion of the two!

In other words, Shi Hao’s current state is akin to that of Ci Yun after being caught by Yimiao, both having fused the Divine Format incarnations of the Cosmic Realm; the difference being the former was a voluntary Divine Format cooperation, while the latter was forcibly twisted together by Yimiao.
