Legend of the Great Sage (Chapter 701-Chapter 833)

“You hope the night roamers can develop and grow in strength so that they can gaze at the moon and stars freely, no longer oppressed by anyone!”


Ye Liusu raised her head and directly met Ye Weiyang’s eyes. Because that originated from the bottom of her heart, she seemed extremely sincere. This was her dream that had undergone countless tests but had never changed. Compared to her personal interests and sense of honour, she placed greater priority on the entire race. Even if many of her clansmen wanted her to die, she would not change this mentality.

Ye Weiyang was touched by her. Some things could not be faked, let alone fool her eyes.





Li Qingshan said, “Fellow Shadow Queen, they’re still night roamers at the end of the day.”

“We night roamers are talking! We don’t need an outsider like you butting in!”

Ye Weiyang barked. Before she knew it, she had already begun treating Li Qingshan much more kindly. Moments prior, she had been filled with killing intent towards Li Qingshan, even refusing the Great Banyan Tree King’s intervention, primarily because he had enslaved her clansmen. Now that this misunderstanding had been cleared up, she understood everything was completely different from what she believed. Not only was he no oppressor, but he could even be interpreted as their liberator and protector from a certain perspective.

“Then I better take my leave first as an outsider! Liusu, spend some time with this senior of yours and have a proper talk.”

Li Qingshan shrugged with a smile. He stood up and pulled Ye Liusu into his original seat.

A major reason for the success of this intervention was her ingenious tongue. With how much the Shadow Queen valued her people, she would never give up until she reached her objective, but if they submitted to the Shadow palace so easily, not only would it leave him humiliated, but it would also risk many of his secrets as well. This could be described as the best outcome.

“Alright, Qingshan,” said Ye Liusu.

Li Qingshan was taken aback, and he touched her cheek. He smiled. “Sure enough, you’ve found some courage when someone is backing you up. I wanted to leave you at ease earlier, but actually I don’t really want you to go either.”

He had never been a person who cared much about how he was referred to anyway. From a certain perspective, he was actually a person who sought equality very much. Back in the Clear River prefecture, even when his cultivation completely surpassed Hua Chengzan and the others, he never considered strutting around above them. He continued to treat them like equals.

But in this world, you could not get along with everyone like that. There would always be some scoundrel who thought they were better than you. There would always be enemies where you needed to talk with the fist. If you did not tread over them, they would not know what you were made of.

Ye Liusu reddened slightly. She only wanted to show the Shadow Queen that their relationship was not as simple as a master and a servant in hopes that the Shadow Queen could drop her guard and pass on the secret techniques to her.

Li Qingshan felt his arm tighten. Xiao An’s slender fingers dug in deeply, so he let out a laugh, turned around, and left.

Ghost Shadow really was like a shadow, drifting away with Li Qingshan. He prayed inside that the Shadow Queen had placed all her attention on Ye Liusu and the others and had not noticed his actions.

“You lowly scum, stop right there!” Ye Weiyang glanced over and barked.

Ghost Shadow stiffened and became utterly silent, turning around and kneeling.

“Li Qingshan, this lowly scum is from my Shadow palace. He’s spent the past few years messing around in the south, even calling himself the greatest assassin of the south. Why doesn’t he take a piss and check himself in the reflection? How humiliating! Please remove the blood oath so that he can return to the Shadow palace with me and continue with what he’s supposed to be doing.”

Ye Weiyang was talking to Li Qingshan, but her eyes were locked firmly on Ghost Shadow, like a black panther eyeing its prey. Women were very vengeful!

“Save me, my king!”

Chapter 806: Myriad Poison Blocks the Door | Legend of the Great Sage




“He’s still my third cave master after all. I’ve already given a promise to all these night roamers, so just let him stay behind and keep serving me. There should be a time when I remove the blood oath and give him freedom again.”

Li Qingshan smiled. Having resolved their most essential reason for conflict, his attitude towards her mellowed out as well.

“I’m fine with anything else, but I must take this lowly scum back with me today!” Ye Weiyang said.

Li Qingshan glanced at Ghost Shadow curiously. He wondered how he had managed to offend the Shadow Queen so much. “Then I’m afraid I can’t oblige. If I can’t even keep a subordinate around, then what’s the point of calling myself the King of Savages?”

Ghost Shadow shot a grateful gaze towards Li Qingshan. From a certain perspective, his objective was the same as Ye Liusu’s. He wanted to undergo the third heavenly tribulation before returning to the Shadow palace.

Ye Weiyang gradually raised her eyebrows, and the heavy murderousness began to radiate again. Li Qingshan stood on his side and gazed at her, continuing to smile like before, but he showed no intentions of backing down. The atmosphere that had just eased up immediately became tense again.

It made the Great Banyan Tree King sigh inside. Ghost Shadow’s existence was not particularly important to either of them, but they had entered a stalemate for the sake of their pride.

“Ma’am Shadow Queen, could you hear me out?” Ye Liusu interrupted before casting another glance at Li Qingshan. If the two of them remained together, they would definitely end up quarrelling.

“Alright. I’ll hear you out first and then take that lowly scum away,” said Ye Weiyang.

The crescent moon sank into the western mountains silently. The light of dawn surged out from the east.

Ghost Shadow stuck close to Li Qingshan nervously, but in the end, the Shadow Queen did not appear again. Only then did he sigh deeply and ease up.

Ye Liusu sat under the great banyan tree with her legs crossed, but the seat before her was already empty. Ye Weiyang had already left Savage mountain silently. Ye Liusu was still stuck in thoughts, sitting there silently. She saw a blur before her, and Li Qingshan sat down in front of her. He smiled at her.

“How was it? Did you have a good talk?”

Ye Liusu nodded gently before suddenly revealing an extremely charming smile. “Thank you!”

Li Qingshan stood up and gazed into the east. “There’s still a long road ahead!”

In the Myriad Poison cult, hundreds of braziers of varying heights burned with dark, green flames, turning the halls green. The Myriad Poison Ancestor sat on his throne. He felt a little uneasy, so he stood up and paced around the hall. He thought, Have I missed something? When the Shadow Queen takes action, even I have to treat her with the utmost caution, so let alone a measly kid at the second heavenly tribulation. Death is the only fate awaiting him!

At this moment, the flames moved despite the absence of wind, rising and flickering about. The Myriad Poison Ancestor’s heart skipped a beat, suddenly looking back. He only saw an additional item on his throne. It was the remuneration he had offered, the treasure of the Myriad Poison cult.

His face changed. The Shadow Queen had actually given up on the assassination!

“Why? Why!?” he called out loudly as he waved his arms around. His wide sleeves flew about, and the green flames blazed.

But he received no reply. Only his voice echoed through the hall endlessly.
