The news of the Human Clan's great victory in the World of the Gods quickly spread among all the existences in the Immortal Realm, bringing this exhilarating news to every Immortal Sect. The Immortal Sects, in turn, were welcoming their heroes' return. Of course, there were Sects mourning with heavy hearts as they received the remains of their fallen heroes.

Jiuzhou Immortal Sect appeared rather calm with no particular commotion. The atmosphere remained heavy and oppressive.

At the entrance of Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, several elegant figures stood, sent by the Sect Master Immortal to welcome back the glorious return of Tangyu and the others.

"Gui Ge, having us here to welcome these five is too humiliating, isn't it? Pan Heavenly King and Gu Shengyu are understandable, but who do Tangyu, Sun Wukong, and Pan Chenyu think they are? What makes them qualified? Moreover, why let those three inexperienced kids participate in such a divine battle? Are we to believe Jiuzhou Immortal Sect has no one else? It should have been you, Gui Ge, who went."

"Exactly, I've always felt indignant for you, Gui Ge. You're the third strongest disciple of Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, holding the third chair firmly, and the leader of our Myriad Laws Faction. How can you be outshone by those three kids? I really can't understand what the Sect Master Immortal was thinking."

"Shh, don't talk nonsense. But honestly, I don't think much of those three either. Humph, who knows if those three will even live to return."

Wanfa Gui stood there, a face full of silence, feeling uneasy inside. Truth be told, he didn't want to participate in the World of the Gods' battle, knowing full well its dangers. However, the Sect Master didn't send him; instead, he sent three young and inexperienced kids, which irked him greatly. Doesn't this mean he's inferior to those three kids?

He, Wanfa Gui, founded the Myriad Laws Faction, recognized among Jiuzhou Immortal Sect's disciples, his brilliance second only to Pan Heavenly King and Gu Shengyu, and third strongman. A Zifu Realm Eighth Layer Great Power, his status within Jiuzhou Immortal Sect was very high, with only a few Elders above him. His Myriad Laws Faction was also one of the four major forces of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect.

"Tangyu, Sun Wukong, Pan Chenyu— the Sect Master Immortal's favoritism towards you three, I have nothing to say. But I really don't accept you." Wanfa Gui snorted coldly in his heart and gestured to everyone: "Alright, let's say less, we must comply with the Sect Master's arrangements. Since they told us to stay here and welcome their return, here we will stay."

"This is truly frustrating. We've waited for more than half the day, and there's still no sign of them. Who knows when they'll return, and are we supposed to wait here indefinitely?"

"What else can we do? We wait."

Several important members of the Myriad Laws Faction were similarly disgruntled, being Zifu Realm Great Powers themselves, they held lofty positions in Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, and naturally, they had a bit of pride.

After waiting another half-day, the silhouettes of Tangyu and the others finally appeared. Seeing them from a distance, a member of the Myriad Laws Faction scoffed: "Well, they really take their time, making us wait here in vain. Those three kids aren't dead; they managed to come back alive, what a stroke of luck. With their level of skill, how could they have survived in the World of the Gods? Pure luck. To get such a huge achievement, such a glory, so easily."

"Stop talking, the more you say, the more I fume."

Wanfa Gui's gaze turned colder, looking at Tangyu and the other three.

From afar, Tangyu could sense a hint of hostility, causing his brow to furrow slightly as he glanced over at Wanfa Gui and his group: "Wanfa Gui?" Tangyu thought to himself that he had never offended Wanfa Gui or had any interactions with him, so why would there be such hostility in his eyes?

Pan Heavenly King said: "Wanfa Gui and his group are probably stationed here by the Sect Masters Immortal to welcome us. But it seems they're not too happy." Pan's eyes also fell on Tangyu and the others, and with his sharp mind, he quickly understood what was going on. Yet, he chuckled at himself; initially, when he heard the Sect Master sent Tangyu and Sun Wukong, he wasn't pleased and was skeptical.

But the end result proved his initial thoughts rather laughable, for if not for Tangyu and Sun Wukong, they would have perished in the World of God's. Wanfa Gui's similar thoughts are equally absurd.

"Wanfa Gui, thank you for waiting here for us. We'll go see the Sect Master Immortal ourselves, no need for further trouble from you." Pan Heavenly King said from a distance, intending to directly excuse Wanfa Gui's presence, avoiding any conflict between him and Tangyu, as it would surely be Wanfa Gui who would suffer.

A voidable trouble is best avoided.

However, Wanfa Gui did not heed Pan Heavenly King's words. Instead, he retorted with a barbed remark: "How can that be, the Sect Master Immortal specifically instructed me to welcome you back with honors. His orders are not to be disobeyed."

"Humph, not sure what kind of luck some people hitched onto, still suckling youngsters passed off as accomplished heroes just by going through the motions in the World of God's, becoming victorious warriors instantly. It's absurd, the thickness of some folks' skin is truly outlandish, not bound by any limit."

"Exactly, coming back alive really is a miracle. However, with such limited strength, I'm guessing there were plenty of disgraceful scenes over there. Even if Gui Ge didn't go, is there truly such peace of mind?"

Pan Heavenly King also shook his head secretly and said, "You all don't need to say more."

The goodwill of Pan Heavenly King was not understood by the people of the Myriad Laws Faction, as sarcastic voices continued to rise: "We are just talking casually, we really admire some people. It's fine to say a few words when we're not happy, isn't it?"

"Hmph, having a bit of talent and getting so self-conceited, I hate these kinds of people the most."

Originally, coming back to the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect was a very joyful event, but just upon reaching the Immortal Sect's gate, this group of people here sneered and taunted. Even the good-tempered Tangyu was displeased.

He touched his nose and with a cold smile looked over and said, "The 'some people' you are talking about, are you referring to me and Wukong?"

Sun Wukong had quite a temper too, and he was gritting his teeth, but Tangyu stopped him, so Sun Wukong didn't rush out directly.

Several Zifu Great Powers of the Myriad Laws Faction glanced at Tangyu, and one of them sneered even more: "Then do you think we're talking about you? Seems you're not stupid, you have a little self-awareness. Knowing we're talking about you, you still have the face to stand out? I really don't know where your confidence comes from?"

Tangyu was not angry; instead, he laughed lightly and said, "So you mean, I don't have the qualifications to participate in the World of the Gods battle, right? Do you mean you have the qualifications?"

That Zifu Great Power from the Myriad Laws Faction said, "I don't have the qualifications, but at least —— I'm more qualified than you, a snot-nosed kid. You're so immature, what qualifications do you think you have?"

Tangyu didn't say much more and just made a move directly, casually sending out a streak of sword qi, which, unexpectedly, attacked the man.

Seeing Tangyu daring to make a move without saying a word, the man was furious, roaring: "How dare you! You're courting death!" After he spoke, he wanted to counter, but he felt the terrifying power of the sword qi, bringing a danger of death that made his face sink and look rather ugly. He felt he couldn't block this sword qi.

So, he retreated awkwardly, swinging his sword in defense, unleashing all his power. However, upon contact with the sword qi, he found all his power was directly shattered, so fragile, unable to withstand a single blow.

His body was directly knocked back, spitting out a mouthful of blood in the air, and then heavily crashed into the rock wall, unable to get up.

This scene made the others from the Myriad Laws Faction open their eyes wide, and their gaze toward Tangyu changed. Wan Fahui's eyes squinted, flashing with a few traces of cold, ruthless light.

Tangyu glanced towards the man with disdain: "I'd like to know, why are you more qualified than me? With your level of power, hmph, letting you participate in the World of the Gods battle, is just sending you to your death, right? I'm young, but that doesn't mean my strength is inferior to yours. Haven't you heard the saying 'Don't underestimate the poor youth'? My confidence comes from my strength, so please tell me, where does your confidence to humiliate me come from?"

"Living to such an age, with such power, yet still so arrogant and insulting others, don't you realize you are the truly ridiculous one? With your narrow vision, presuming the intentions of the Sect Master Immortal, who do you think you are?"

Tangyu's words were also blunt and harsh. As this person took the lead in insulting him and adding insults, Tangyu naturally couldn't be polite. Besides, with Tangyu's current status, how could he allow himself to be insulted like this? So naturally, he had to step back firmly.

Pff——

The man's face became extremely ugly again after being provoked by Tangyu's words, spitting out another mouthful of blood, but he was powerless to refute. Being weaker, he could only endure it. He, after all, was a dignified Fifth Layer Zifu Realm Great Power, unexpectedly defeated so miserably with one strike. Laughable, it indeed was a ridiculously laughable thing.

Stepping back at this man, Tangyu's eyes then looked toward Wan Fahui, whose face was dark, and he smirked: "Seems you're also displeased?"

Wan Fahui smiled coldly and said, "Seems you're quite perceptive, knowing I'm displeased. Injuring my people in front of me, did you ask for my permission?"

Tangyu shrugged and said, "If I asked you, would you agree? Probably not, and since you wouldn't agree, why would I bother asking? If so, it wouldn't be you being cheap, but me being cheap. A man like me, so graceful and cultured, would never do something as low as that.

Hearing Tangyu's words, Wan Fahui's face became extremely ugly. When had he been so disrespected, even humiliated, by a junior? This was simply trampling on his dignity. Plus, he was already very displeased with Tangyu, so how could he let it go at that?
