Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road

Bu Si Shu raised an eyebrow as he observed her expression. She didn’t seem to be lying.

"Bu Si Shu, what is your grudge with the Shenlian clan?" She tilted her head, asking carefully.

"I have held a grudge against them for four thousand years. They stole one of my silver leaves and nearly succeeded in uprooting me from the Land of Paradise. At that time, I had just reached a level where I could transform."

"I was undergoing the thunder tribulation when they disrupted me. If the guardian hadn’t stopped them in time, I would have failed the tribulation and perished. At worst, if I had failed, I would have been forced into a slave contract with them." Bu Si Shu’s voice carried deep wrath and hatred, he could never forget that moment.

Shenlian Yingyue broke into a cold sweat. She could imagine how dangerous that situation had been. Every time she successfully endured a thunder tribulation, she was left severely injured, hanging onto life by a thread. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

It only took a few seconds for the Rain of Heaven to descend as a reward, but for offenders, a few seconds were more than enough to take advantage of the weakened state of their target.

"Those people are so shameless. They acted disgracefully yet spoke as if they were righteous, claiming it was my fault for being a seasonal and disaster tree they desired. They even said I should feel honored that they wanted to use my power." Bu Si Shu’s face twisted with disgust and contempt.

Even though he floated calmly in the air, his powerful aura was enough to make Shenlian Yingyue sweat under the immense pressure. The overwhelming presence of the strong.

Her eyelid twitched. How shameless they were. She almost wanted to hide her face from Bu Si Shu out of sheer embarrassment.

Even though she wasn’t associated with those people, the fact that she carried the Shenlian clan’s bloodline made her feel uncomfortable.

She didn’t dislike her origin, on the contrary, she cherished being her parents’ daughter, her brother’s sister, and her uncle’s niece.

But she was ashamed and furious that some members of the Shenlian clan had tainted its reputation, a clan where her family was born.

Her fists clenched tightly, her face turning red like a tomato, and it almost seemed like hot steam was rising from her head.

"I have a grudge against some of them too. Since we have the same goal, I’ll help you beat them, and you’ll help me beat them if I’m powerless." She forced a smile, though her words came out through gritted teeth.

"Are you okay with this? They’re your relatives, after all." Bu Si Shu chuckled. He found her reaction quite amusing.

"Such a shameless group, I will teach them a lesson on behalf of my parents and elders." She forced another smile, but it looked uglier than crying.

Bu Si Shu crossed his arms and rolled his eyes contemptuously. "The ones from four thousand years ago would be your elders."

Shenlian Yingyue: "..."

"Whatever! We’ll see when the time comes!" Her tone was calm again, but anyone could see she was lost in deep thought.

Bu Si Shu assumed she was thinking of how to retreat, after all, there was no way she would disgrace her elders for an outsider like him.

But in truth, she was thinking, if those people had been shameless enough to target both her master and Bu Si Shu, then they were likely even worse than she imagined.

So what if they were her elders?

Little did Bu Si Shu know that, in the future, it would be Shenlian Yingyue who personally beat those shameless elders so badly that their own parents and relatives could barely recognize them.

Mr. Potato (rubbing his palms in excitement): "I cannot wait for that moment! It will be so amusing to witness! Hahahahaha!" (evil laugh)

Bu Si Shu waved his hand dismissively. "Or forget it. You’re too weak. Even without you, I can beat them myself." He shooed her away as if she was a worthless junior.

Shenlian Yingyue: "..."

"Bu Si Shu, who can predict the future? How many times have I lost to you, and how many times have I won? I believe in my own abilities. Even if I’m not as powerful as you, I have countless ways to teach my enemies a lesson. Sometimes, strength isn’t enough, tricks work just as well. If the enemy plays dirty, then we should return the favor." She spoke seriously.

Bu Si Shu choked on his own saliva, because her words made sense.

Yes, in the past, he had almost lost many times, not because he lacked power, but because his enemies were too cunning and deceitful.

They had countless tricks hidden up their sleeves. He had underestimated them and suffered for it.

Seeing him speechless, Shenlian Yingyue mercifully stopped poking his delicate pride. Instead, she turned to Xiao Yun and the others, who rushed into her arms, celebrating her successful victory and negotiation with Bu Si Shu.

From now on, they no longer had to worry about this ancient entity suddenly losing his temper and summoning natural disasters upon their home.

With the combined efforts of Xiao Yun and Bu Si Shu, the broken battle space soon returned to normal. Bu Si Shu truly had impressive abilities.

Since he had to rely on them to stay in the Ethereal Small World, he wasn’t stingy about using his powers to help.

Sometimes, he would summon rain to nourish the spiritual herbs and plants.

Even though the herbs were watered daily by Spiritual Water, Bu Si Shu’s ability allowed him to turn the Spiritual Waterfalls into rain, ensuring every corner of the small world received nourishment.

One day, it was time for Shenlian Yingyue to return to the real world.

She had stayed in the Ethereal Small World for nearly six years, yet only thirty-six days had passed in the real world.

(Two months in the Ethereal Small World = One day in the real world.)

"Bu Si Shu, if you leave the Ethereal Small World, make sure to conceal your aura and power. Especially your appearance." She kindly reminded him. She didn’t want unnecessary trouble. Besides, his divine appearance was the biggest problem.

If he attracted powerful admirers, she would be the first person targeted by his so-called "peach blossoms" (romantic pursuers).

Bu Si Shu lifted his chin arrogantly. "Who dares to chase and disturb this Great One? I will send them to meet their ancestors in the afterlife."

Shenlian Yingyue gritted her teeth. "I said don’t cause trouble! You don’t understand anything!"

"What?" Bu Si Shu didn’t take it seriously. He was used to using his strength to scare away enemies. Why should he care if weaklings were drawn to his beauty?

But soon, disaster really came.

As Shenlian Yingyue had predicted, the moment she left the Abyssal Throne Ruins, using the map Xiong Zi Ying had given her, she found countless demons waiting at every entrance.

The moment they saw Bu Si Shu...
