The Peak Master of Sky de Peak was beaten so badly that his face was covered with handprints. He was dumbfounded, looking at the Divine Master with a face full of shock, unable toe to his senses for a long time.


    "Listen carefully!" the Divine Master said coldly, "They are my brothers,rades who fight alongside me, not my subordinates. You, however, are just a dog under mymand, understand?"


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak finally snapped out of it, and in a fit of rage, he grabbed the long de on his back and roared, "I''ll fight you to the death!"


    As soon as he finished speaking, the Divine Master immediately raised his hand. The Peak Master of Sky de Peak felt as if his entire body had gone stiff; all the power in his body did not obey, and he couldn''t even draw the long de.


    He tried with all his might, but even the slightest movement was impossible for his body. He couldn''t even open his mouth to speak; it was as if his acupoints had been struck, rendering himpletely frozen in ce.


    The others, seeing his predicament, began to sneer. The Divine Master''s earlier p and words made everyone very satisfied.


    The Divine Master looked at the Peak Master of Sky de Peak like he was watching an idiot, waited a while, then finally moved his finger.


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak felt he could open his mouth and immediately yelled, "Divine Master, what did you do? Let me go..."


    "Peak Master of Sky de Peak, you may be an important figure, having lived for hundreds of years, yet you have nomon sense at all?" the Divine Master sighed, "You''ll dare to eat whatever others offer you?"


    "Eat?" The Peak Master of Sky de Peak''s face changed drastically, "The elixir pills you gave me earlier, are they poisoned?"


    "Not poisoned, just with a little extra ingredient," the Divine Master smiled.


    "You... you poisoned me?" the Peak Master of Sky de Peak eximed.


    "I already said, it''s not poison!" the Divine Masterughed, "I just added some Gu Worms inside, Gu Worms from the Heavenly Realm that even Land Immortals can''t resist!"


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak''s face changed again. To be cursed was much more terrifying than to be poisoned.


    Poison at most just causes poisoning, even death.


    But once Gu Worms act, it''s far more terrifying than poisoning. It''s truly a fate where you can''t live or die!


    "You... you cursed me..." the Peak Master of Sky de Peak panicked; he was truly frightened.


    "Why would you curse me? We... we are partners..." the Peak Master of Sky de Peak said anxiously.


    "It''s precisely because we are merely partners that I had to curse you!" the Divine Masterughed, "People like you are unreliable. You even tried to run away and leave Liao Yuxuan there to die. How could I not be wary of someone like you?"


    "You... you..." the Peak Master of Sky de Peak opened his mouth but couldn''t speak, while Liao Yuxuanughed.


    Earlier, the Peak Master of Sky de Peak had tried to escape alone, leaving him behind, an act for which he was furious and also wanted revenge. But now, he didn''t even need to act.


    "Don''t worry, as long as you work well for me, you can pretend the Gu Worms don''t even exist!" the Divine Master said with a faint smile.


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak''s face was extremely grim; even though his heart was very reluctant, he had to admit he really had no choice.


    At that moment, regret filled the heart of the Peak Master of Sky de Peak. Had he known this, he would rather have stayed hidden for life or spent his life on the run than coborate with the Divine Master. It was like seeking skin with the tiger!


    "Though you are quite disrespectful to me, I''ll still answer your earlier question!" the Divine Master said, "First off, why not kill Beigong War God? Let me put it this way, what direct significance do you think killing Beigong War God has?"


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak was stunned for a moment, "Killing him would mean Su Yang would lose a great general. It would also be a big blow to Su Yang, and we would have our revenge!"


    "Heh..." the Divine Master chuckled, "That''s why someone like you can only n small things and never achieve great sess."


    "What do you mean?" The Peak Master of Sky de Peak was very angry; if he hadn''t been cursed, he would have already started swearing. Why say that about me?


    "To achieve great things, one cannot be concerned with short-term gains and losses," the Divine Master said softly, "Killing a Beigong War God might affect Su Yang, but not by much. On the contrary, given Beigong War God''s current strength, if we push him too hard, he might risk his life to take at least two of our people down with him. Is it worth sacrificing two of our people to kill someone whose impact isn''t significant?"


    The people around the Divine Master shook their heads simultaneously; no one was willing to die.


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak scratched his head; he had to admit that what the Divine Master said was true.


    "Furthermore, although we lured away the Three Eagles of Yanbei, they might return at any moment. Killing Beigong War God isn''t easy. If he manages to dy until the Three Eagles of Yanbei return, we''ll lose more than just two people!" the Divine Master continued.


    These words left the Peak Master of Sky de Peak with nothing more to say. Just as the Divine Master said, if the Three Eagles of Yanbei returned, apart from the Divine Master, none of them could hope to escape.


    "Then... then you could just take us and run without mentioning anything about Qi Zhishan!" the Peak Master of Sky de Peakined, "Qi Zhishan is very powerful. Once he revives, Su Yang will gain a strong expert, which... which isn''t good for us..."<fnd56d> Content originallyes from </fnd56d>


    "You don''t understand!" the Divine Master smiled lightly, "It''s not that easy for Su Yang to save Qi Zhishan, not to mention Qi Zhishan is broken to pieces. Whether he can be saved is uncertain. Furthermore, the ce where I hid Qi Zhishan is in a dangerous area within the World Melting Furnace. When that demon forged the World Melting Furnace, the ces where the most deaths urred were these dangerous areas. If Su Yang really goes there, haha, whether he can return alive is still unknown!"


    "Really?" the Peak Master of Sky de Peak was overjoyed; his hatred for Su Yang was extreme. If Su Yang could be killed, it would indeed be a joyous event.


    "Now you see Divine Master''s wisdom and foresight!" Liao Yuxuan nced at him with disdain, "Do you still use your petty perspective to guess Divine Master''s intentions?"


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak was joyous and didn''t refute, nodding repeatedly, "Divine Master, you really consider things thoroughly."


    "However, I don''t really want Su Yang to die just yet," the Divine Master said slowly, taking everyone by surprise.


    The Peak Master of Sky de Peak looked at the Divine Master in astonishment. What did he mean by not wanting Su Yang dead? Wasn''t he deeply resentful of Su Yang? Why suddenly not want Su Yang dead?
