Chapter 2383

Zhu Yanyi’s words hung in the air. The black-clad giant’s face froze. Seeing this reaction, Zhu Yanyi understood immediately. This man was clearly trying to show off.

Zhu Yanyi remained silent. Baili Tong let out a cold sneer. “You want to step on the Immortal Emperor to rise in status? That depends on whether you have the ability. I’d like to see what tricks you have to challenge the Immortal Emperor.”

Zhu Yanyi spoke softly from the side. “You’d better not leave this teahouse.”

“Why?” the black-clad giant asked.

Zhu Yanyi pointed out the window. “The Immortal Emperor pities the living beings in this teahouse and has not struck. But if you go out, you will definitely face heavenly punishment.”

Sure enough, dark clouds were rolling outside, as if waiting to drop punishing lightning at any moment.

The black-clad giant’s expression changed. The Immortal Realm was usually sunny and clear. Lightning only appeared for punishment or when someone’s cultivation advanced. He had spoken those words assuming the Immortal Emperor wouldn’t care. He never expected the Immortal Emperor to know everything. The Emperor might not hold a grudge, but He could send down heavenly lightning to destroy him instantly.

Seeing this, Qingguo Wu swayed her charming, snake-like waist. “Black-clad man, I don’t know who you are, but you’ve shown us the Immortal Emperor’s majesty. We are grateful. Farewell, we won’t see you out. We’ll send you off.”

“Get lost.” The black-clad giant refused to admit defeat. He didn’t want to die. His heart was filled with anxiety as he desperately thought of how to avoid this disaster.

“I say, black-clad giant, is it really necessary to be like this? To be honest, it’s useless no matter what you do, because heaven cannot be deceived,” Du Li said with a look of schadenfreude.

The sky grew even darker. The black-clad giant looked up, afraid to step outside. For now, he could hide within the teahouse. If he went out, he feared real danger.

Baili Tong spoke calmly from the side. “You are destined to die. Might as well be quick about it.” Such an immortal was hated by all immortals.

The black-clad giant felt a wave of despair. No, she didn’t want to die. She could find a scapegoat. She looked around at the people present and fixed her gaze on Zhu Yanyi. This woman had just ascended and likely had no backing. If she made her block the heavenly lightning for her, she would be safe.

She looked at Zhu Yanyi. She was at the peak of Earth Immortal stage, while she was at the early stage of Heavenly Immortal. She was one level higher and should be able to grab her.

The black-clad giant calculated constantly, his eyes darting around. It was obvious he was plotting something.

Zhu Yanyi, watching from the side, knew immediately that the black-clad giant was trying to scheme against her.

It seemed that since she started cultivating, many people had tried to scheme against her, but none had succeeded. Now that she had arrived in the Immortal Realm, this was the first person trying to trick her. Zhu Yanyi suddenly felt curious. “Trying to scheme against me?”

Strike first. Zhu Yanyi never liked waiting for others to make a move. Since she had already seen through her plot, it was better to ask directly.

The black-clad giant paused. She looked at Zhu Yanyi and then said, “I didn’t mean to scheme against you. I just want to ask you to go out with me. You just need to walk in front of me.”

“Are you my father?” Zhu Yanyi asked.

“Huh?…” The black-clad giant was stunned, not understanding what she meant. “What do you mean by that?”

“Nothing. Just asking to see if you are my father,” Zhu Yanyi said calmly.

“Nonsense.” The black-clad giant was displeased.

“If you are not my father, what right do you have to order me to walk in front of you as a scapegoat? Do you think I’m a fool? Do I have ‘idiot’ written on my face, letting you scheme against me like this?” Zhu Yanyi tapped her fingers lightly on the table, looking at her as if to say, You are too naive.

“Because I am a Heavenly Immortal and you are an Earth Immortal. I am stronger than you. In the Immortal Realm, the strong rule.” The black-clad giant looked proud, acting as if he was determined to do this.

“Sigh…” Zhu Yanyi let out a deep sigh. “You are only slightly stronger than me, and you act like this. It seems my husband was right. If I don’t provoke trouble, trouble might come to me. So, she told me not to be soft on trouble. Then I won’t be soft.”

“Are you going to attack me?” The black-clad giant sneered. An Earth Immortal, even at the peak, was still different in essence from a Heavenly Immortal. The black-clad giant never considered Zhu Yanyi her match.

“Attack you?” Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. “I am a civilized person. No, a civilized fairy. How could I attack a boring person? Attacking someone like you would be an affirmation of you. Either I am foolish, or you are.”

Zhu Yanyi spoke coldly. Then, her finger flicked slightly. Before anyone could understand the meaning of her gesture, the black-clad giant fell to the ground.

Zhu Yanyi then stood up and walked to the black-clad giant. “I have always said I am a medical cultivator. As a medical cultivator, I use medicines. I recently researched these pills. They can be tested on anyone below the Immortal Saint level. I didn’t know the effect, but since you are so enthusiastic, I naturally have to use you for an experiment.”

Zhu Yanyi’s words were soft, but her gentle tone made the people nearby feel a chill. Their expressions toward Zhu Yanyi changed.

Whether it was Qingguo Wu, Du Li, or Baili Tong, or perhaps other immortals paying attention to the situation, they were all relieved that they had not offended this seemingly gentle woman. Otherwise, according to her words, her medicine was effective against those below the Immortal Saint level, meaning it would affect everyone present.

The black-clad giant could not move at all. Only her eyes moved, looking at Zhu Yanyi in terror. Zhu Yanyi slowly took out a pair of gloves and put them on. “My husband said that when dealing with enemies, one must wear gloves so hands don’t get dirty. Although she is not by my side now, I still listen to her words.”

As she spoke, she casually grabbed the man and walked to the window, throwing her directly out.

She threw her into an empty square outside. As soon as the black-clad giant was thrown out, the lightning in the sky struck down. Then, only a scream was heard. The black-clad giant instantly turned to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

Zhu Yanyi clicked her tongue. “This lightning is indeed powerful. Hmm, it seems that in the future, the best way to deal with enemies is to guide them to be dissatisfied with the Immortal Emperor. Then heaven will deal with them.”

After saying this, Zhu Yanyi turned around. She saw Baili Tong, Qingguo Wu, and Du Li stepping back three steps, looking at her with terrified expressions.

“What’s wrong with you?”

She then took off the gloves, shook them slightly, and they were destroyed. She walked back to the table. “Do you want to sit together? Drink tea and eat cakes. Life as an immortal is indeed leisurely.”
