Thanks to My Enemy, I Become Immortal Emperor - Chapter 119

“Don’t look at me with that expression,” the old man continued. “Afterward, I pondered why, as the leader of a sect, I felt compelled to appease my Junior Sisters and even went to great lengths to prove my innocence.

“Only now, sitting here idle, have I had a sudden realization – but it’s too late.”

“I still can’t fully understand it. My relationship with those Junior Sisters was genuinely close, and I’m not foolish by any means. Yet, back then, it seemed like we all lost our minds, behaving like rabid dogs!”

Liu Shunyi grew impatient.

“I don’t want to hear your bullshit stories. I need to enter Giant God City.”

The old man waved his hand dismissively.

“It’s too early yet. Entering Giant God City now would be walking straight into a trap. The time isn’t right; going in prematurely is a death sentence. When the moment arrives, I’ll naturally escort you inside.

“Besides, the city should not open this soon; someone seems to have tampered with it.

“In the meantime, let’s chat.”

Feeling helpless, Liu Shunyi relented.

“You don’t seem to be lying, so fine, I’ll talk with you.”

Liu Shunyi then kicked the old man aside and took his place on the reclining chair.

The old man stared speechlessly at Liu Shunyi.

“With these old bones of mine, young man, how could you be so…”

Before he finished, seeing Liu Shunyi’s narrowed gaze, the old man instantly fell silent.

Liu Shunyi didn’t press further about the old man’s affairs but instead asked him:

“How long have you been imprisoned here?”

The old man delved into his memories, then shook his head.

“I’ve forgotten!”

Liu Shunyi continued, “Since you’re still alive, is that little pup also surviving somewhere?”

Bloodshot veins appeared in the old man’s eyes.

“Alive, probably hidden within Giant God City, but his situation isn’t much better than mine.”

Liu Shunyi nodded.

“Tell me about this Giant God City.”

The old man opened his mouth, ready to describe the dire circumstances of the ‘little pup’. However, Liu Shunyi swiftly changed the topic, leaving the old man feeling somewhat frustrated and unable to express what he had intended.

“As its name suggests, Giant God City was once the abode of gods during ancient times. Naturally, it contains countless treasures and rarities.”

“It’s not an exaggeration to say that any single item from there would be considered supreme treasures for cultivators like us.”

“However, Giant God City is also known as the place where gods fell. The divine beings wouldn’t want their possessions scattered among mortals, so the city is filled with God’s Resenment. To navigate safely within Giant God City, one must possess artifacts capable of resisting this resenment.”

At this point, the old man looked at Liu Shunyi.

“I happen to have such items here, but if you’re interested…”

Liu Shunyi immediately waved his hand.

“Don’t bother explaining further, I’m completely uninterested.”

The old man paused, taken aback.

Wait, what’s wrong with this young man? Can’t he let me finish speaking?

Little did the old man know, Liu Shunyi had other thoughts on his mind:

“God’s Resenment? Is it alive?”
“Can it make it onto the rankings?”

If it could rank, wouldn’t that mean hitting the jackpot?

But then again,

if it couldn’t rank, it would still be useless.

To ensure his safety, Liu Shunyi stood up, stretched his limbs, and stared at the old man.

The old man looked back with fear, stammering, “Wh-what do you want to do?!”

Liu Shunyi smiled. “I’d like some insurance.”

He then proceeded to pummel the old man relentlessly.

“Ah, wait! Stop hitting me, just tell me what you want, I’ll give it to you!” The old man surrendered, realizing he was dealing with a devilish young man who had no mercy.

As Zhao Gou stepped into the lighted area, he encountered a similar scene with an elderly man.

However, this old man was missing one leg, from which black blood continuously flowed.

Beside him lay the corpse of a dog.

The elder’s eyes were filled with profound sorrow as his rough hands gently caressed the dog’s body.

With a mournful tone, he muttered, “Old friend, you’ve finally left me!”

Zhao Gou approached cautiously. After a moment’s thought, he decided to show respect and bowed towards the old man.

“Greetings, Senior! I am Zhao Gou.”

Hearing Zhao Gou’s voice, the old man lifted his cloudy gaze.

“Oh… It’s been a long time since anyone came here. You must be seeking entry into Giant God City, right?”

Zhao Gou nodded respectfully. “Yes, Senior.”

The old man sighed deeply. “To enter Giant God City, you must pass my trial!”

Zhao Gou’s expression turned serious. “Could you please explain further, Senior?”

The old man glanced at his leg and then at the nearby dog, his eyes narrowing slightly.

“If you can heal me and revive my old companion, you will have passed the trial!”

Zhao Gou blinked in surprise.
Wow, talk about hitting the sweet spot!

He instantly grinned.

“So that’s all it takes? Don’t worry, sir, I’ll definitely heal you.”

Old Man: “???”

“Hold on, let me clarify. It’s not just about healing; I want to regrow a new leg.”

Zhao Gou nodded confidently.

“No problem.”

The old man looked somewhat incredulous.

“Well then, why don’t you get started?”

Zhao Gou agreed with another nod.

“Bang~”

With one swift hammer blow, he knocked the old man unconscious.

Then, he rubbed his hands together.

“Just as I entered the Nascent Soul Realm, I comprehended a new medical divine ability, and coincidentally, I’ve been lacking someone to test it on,” Zhao Gou remarked.

As he spoke, Zhao Gou eyed the nearby dog’s leg and produced a saw.

After two hours passed…

The old man gradually regained consciousness.

To be precise,

It was his dog’s licking that woke him up.

Seeing his loyal companion lively and energetic before him again brought immense joy to the old man.

However, suddenly, he felt something peculiar.

“Hmm? Why do I sense a strange connection with this dog?” The old man furrowed his brow.

Then unexpectedly,

His eyes widened as sensation returned to his leg.

He hastily lifted his clothing to inspect it.

To his shock, what met his gaze was a canine limb, complete with a paw twitching slightly.

“Boom!”

The old man’s face turned pale, and his Nascent Soul aura began to surge violently.

Noticing the old man’s mere Nascent Soul cultivation base, Zhao Gou couldn’t help but frown.

“Just at the Nascent Soul stage! Well then, no need for any special treatment.”

Seeing the old man seemingly ready to confront him, Zhao Gou flexed his arms forcefully.

“Rip!”

His shirt burst open, revealing his robust and muscular physique before the old man.

Simultaneously, a Nascent Soul aura, even stronger than the old man’s, surged forth, overwhelming him.

The old man gulped nervously and quickly forced a smile.

“Cough, Dr. Zhao, no need for violence, I… uh, I don’t know how to thank you enough…” Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked at his leg, sobbing harder with each glance.

Zhao Gou sighed.

“I’ve healed your leg, given you a new one, and saved your old companion. Is this trial now complete?”

The old man felt a deep sense of frustration, unable to express it fully.

“But, you gave me a dog leg!” he protested weakly.

Zhao Gou rolled his eyes.

“Just tell me, is it healed or not? If you’re trying to avoid paying, be warned – I do have some martial skills!”
