《This Young Master is not Cannon Fodder》Chapter 89: Tianyi's Reverse Scale
Advertisement
Lovespot moved to shake off Tianyi's hands but discovered that he couldn't move his arm at all as if iron had shackled his arm. He frowned and finally took a good look at Tianyi.
The youth in purple had exquisite features, but the most eyecatching was no doubt those pair of bewitching eyes. Lovespot felt that even as a man, he could be enraptured by those eyes. But as soon as that thought entered his mind, Lovespot felt ridicule welling up within him.
Because of his grandfather and parents, Lovespot had enormous talent and resources for cultivation. In one hundred and fifty years, he had reached the Nascent Soul Realm. Of course, it was unknown whether he could accomplish such a feat without his grandfather's support. But after entering the Nascent Soul Realm, his progress decreased dramatically, and even after two hundred years, he had not entered the Unity Realm. But despite this, he was still considered a talent as a peak Nascent Soul Grandmaster was still deemed to be young at three hundred years old.
Lovespot himself, however, didn't seem to care as he spent most of his days wooing girls using any means necessary. But he had another habit geared towards males. Lovespot was proud of his looks to the point of narcissism. If he saw any man more beautiful than him in any way, he would have an uncontrollable urge to destroy and ruin that man.
Earlier his attention had been diverted by Daoyi, but after noticing Tianyi, Lovespot's eccentricities awoke once more.
"This junior brother," Lovespot felt the lower cultivation Tianyi and even Tianyi's young age. "you're not wearing the uniform. This is breaking sect rules."
The sect had the rule of disciples always wearing the Buzhou Immortal Sect uniform. But those elite and core disciples would often modify or wear personal clothing, and the Elders turned a blind eye to this. But Lovespot was the grandson of the Justice Hall's Head Elder, and if he did make a complaint, that disciple would be punished.
Tianyi's eyes contained mockery. "Then go back to your grandfather and complain."
"This junior brother, I've seen people like you before. Always proud of your talents, not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. If you're smart, you'd have apologized by now." Lovespot said. "If I'm feeling generous, I'll maybe let you go."
The disciples who heard Lovespot's words felt their faces twitch at his words. If he knew Tianyi's identity, he wouldn't be so arrogant, would he?
Lovespot was an outcast. None of the disciples who even heard of him liked to be near him. Even the relatives of Immortal Monarchs stayed away from him and viewed him as a blight. Over fifty percent of the rumors concerning the silkpants abusing their power was because of him.
"Then show me the immensity of heaven and earth. Otherwise, scram." Tianyi flung Lovespot's arm away with an unnecessarily large amount of force.
Lovespot had to utilize a good majority of his strength to prevent himself from flying off his feet. An ugly expression flashed across his face before a hypocritically gentle smile appeared. "Since you don't know, then I will teach you. How about a spar? After all, without sparring at such a wonderful gathering would be a waste."
"You took the words right out of my mouth." Tianyi agreed without any hesitation.

Surrounded by the proud geniuses of Buzhou Immortal Sect, Tianyi and Lovespot stared at each other from a distance.
"This...brother Xi is quite daring."
"Hmpf, as the only son of the Sword Empress, brother Xi doesn't need to fear that Lovespot."
"Yeah, it should be the opposite way around. That Lovespot should fear brother Xi. Hmpf, our reputation is being dragged down by that wastrel."
"Don't say that. A man as good looking as brother Lovespot shouldn't be like those rumors said."
"What do you know? Junior sister, it's better for you to stay silent now. Otherwise, once you're released from his charm, you will wish to bury yourself in a hole."
"What? I'm a Nascent Soul Grandmaster. His charm is useless in front of me."
"No, no. I heard that he practiced an unorthodox spell. That beauty mark has been refined with countless treasures. Even materials at the Immortal rank have been used. Not even those Earth Immortals can necessarily fully block his charm."
"So, fearsome?"
"Yes. I heard that he even seduced an Elder's Dao Companion away!"
"Psh, I heard that he even mesmerized a man to castrate himself!"
Low murmurs discussing the scourge that was Lovespot could be heard. But Lovespot held his hand behind his back as if the disgusting person they were discussing wasn't him.
Tianyi felt his lips twitch at the hidden disdain in Lovespot's eyes. Since he wanted to play like that, Tianyi will reciprocate in kind. With a wave of his hand, a monolithic black throne with golden dragon engravings appeared.
Thunder Throne Mk III
Tianyi had rebuilt the Thunder Throne with even better materials, time, and design! It even came with a reclining feature!
Sitting upon the throne, Tianyi stared down Lovespot like a monarch. Daoyi, who was watching, couldn't help but stifle her giggles at how the artifact floated higher just so Tianyi could literally look down on Lovespot.
Lovespot, in turned felt a vein pulsing on his forehead. He took out a Unity Realm Artifact and held it in his hand. It was a golden vajra with numerous cracks on it. "So junior brother wants to compete in treasures. Then this lord won't be polite. This artifact is something my grandfather found from another realm. I call it Lightning Caller."
Once Lovespot finished talking, dark thunderclouds gathered in the air. He felt something weird as the clouds were even larger and darker than usual. But he didn't spare any unnecessary thought to it as a lightning bolt twice as large as what he called before struck Tianyi.
He frowned and looked at the artifact in his hand. Was it always this powerful? He could feel that the power of the lightning bolt nearing the threshold of Unity Realm. Lovespot originally wanted to make Tianyi suffer more, but he shrugged. The result was still the same.
But when the brilliance of the lightning disappeared, Lovespot felt that his eyesight had problems when Tianyi was still leisurely sitting on his throne. Before he could do anything, another bolt of lightning struck down.
Only after the ninth lightning bolt struck Tianyi did the storm clouds disperse. The spectators felt something strange as the lightning bolt contained traces of Tribulation Essence but just chalked it up to Lovespot's treasure being unique. But only Lovespot knew that something was weird.

As for Tianyi?
He just rolled his eyes at the sky. The Heavenly Dao sure was using any and all the opportunities to attack him.
A stone sword appeared in Tianyi's hand. "Since you have shown me such a treasure, allow me to return in kind. This sword was originally a spiritual mountain before refining into the shape of a sword."
Tianyi didn't do anything special. He just chucked the stone sword at Lovespot.
Lovespot just smiled as he waited for the stone sword to fall onto him. Once the blade neared Lovespot, his robes deployed the defensive formation employed within. As Lovespot predicted, the blade didn't destroy his defenses.
But what he didn't predict was the overwhelming heaviness the sword carried. It caused his face to whiten, and only by using all his strength was he able to prevent himself from stepping back or kneeling. Although to spectators, Lovespot appeared to have stood there effortlessly.
It had to be known that his robe was an automatic defense type artifact that could even block a few moves from True Immortals. But just as a shield couldn't prevent the user from being pushed back, neither could Lovespot's robes easily disperse the sword's force.
After Tianyi retrieved the stone sword, Lovespot's smiled deepened. "Haha, junior brother sure is loved. But how many treasures can you take out?" Lovespot said as he took out another treasure.
Like before, Tianyi blocked it with his body. His body contained a cosmo. Although it wouldn't be as monstrous as not being damaged by a non-cosmic destroying force, it was durable to the point that a standard Unity Realm Venerable would cry trying to hurt Tianyi.
In turn, Tianyi would take out another treasure and cause Lovespot to use all his strength to remain unaffected. This was a purposeful calculation on Tianyi's part.
After a few more back and forths, Lovespot finally spoke. "Haha, giving you so many treasures, what a waste. That Elder behind you sure loves junior brother."
"Naturally, my mother loves me," Tianyi said, his eyes becoming gentle to the extreme for a fleeting moment.
"Oh, it's a female? A pity this lord has never met her. Otherwise, this lord might have become your stepfather, ahahaha!" Lovespot himself knew that it was impossible for such a thing to happen. From Tianyi's wealth, Lovespot knew that his mother must be an Immortal Elder or possibly an Immortal Monarch like his father. But so what? He was used to being despotic, and he loved attacking another person's weak point.
Tianyi's expression became ice-cold. If Lovespot's action of eyeing his junior sister caused him to want to teach Lovespot a lesson, then Lovespot's words towards Mengfei made Tianyi want to murder him.
Tianyi felt protective towards Daoyi because of the feelings he developed over the years. Even without the dream of Xi Longyi, Tianyi would still protect Daoyiu even if he didn't like Daoyi because she was his junior sister.
But his mother, Xi Mengfei, was his reverse scale. Even if he logically knew that Lovespot was spouting nonsense, Tianyi couldn't control the impulse to murder Lovespot.
Lovespot was extremely sensitive to killing intent. He had caused many people to develop such thoughts towards him. Rather than fearing it, he enjoyed it even more when people wanted to kill him but were unable to. "Tsk, tsk. Now that I think about it, this lord rather does want to become your stepfather. How about practicing by calling this lord father, son?"
The spectators were flabbergasted by Lovespot's insolence. Even if Tianyi's mother was a regular Immortal, Lovespot should have never said those words. When the disciples returned, they were sure to tell their elders, causing Monarch Redseal's relationships to sour.
If he could allow his grandson to be so impudent, then Monarch Redseal did not respect them as Elders!
"I had wanted to show this off later, but it seems that you want to see it earlier. I'll show you right now then." Tianyi waved his hand, and the stone sword from earlier and four other swords corresponding to the other four elements also appeared. Each one was being controlled separately by each of his Nascent Souls and due to this connection, the five swords exhibited a form of unity rarely seen at this level.
The swords rotated in a formation, and Tianyi unleashed the five-sword formation upon Lovespot.
Lovespot smiled as the sword reached towards him as he brought out a defensive artifact to block. However, he discovered that the power behind the swords was far more powerful, and he was blown back, not even lasting a second.
"You think you're all that just because you only this amount of treasure. Let this lord show what true wealth is!" Lovespot called out in rage. Three artifacts exuding the aura of Immortality appeared.
Lovespot had far more, but he was unable to control so much. So the best he could control at his realm was three.
Tianyi sneered. "Comparing wealth? That is the one thing I'm not afraid of!"
Tianyi raised his hand. The character for the word jade appeared in the sky. The aura it released was even greater than all three of Lovespots treasured combined.
Xia Yushan and several other disciples had their eyes widened. What Tianyi brought out was the Jade Peak Seal, an Immortal Artifact of the Seamless Immortal Realm.
Only Seamless Immortals, Immortal Monarchs, could become Peak Lords. And each Peak would have a seal at the Immortal Monarch Realm. As long as one had it, within their Peak, Immortal Monarchs would be able to contend with Immortal Emperors for a short period. But outside, without the power of the Peak, it was still powerful enough to allow a mortal to trade blows with a True Immortal.
Envy could be seen in many of their eyes.
Naturally, without Mengfei's aid, even Tianyi was unable to control such a treasure.
Lovespot, for the first time in his life, felt great danger. He gaped at Tianyi, wondering who he was. He was confident that no one in the sect among the disciples could contend with him in treasures, but today he was proven wrong.
As the Jade Peak Seal neared him, he felt his blood slow to a stop, yet his heart pounded like crazy. Lovespot finally felt death nearing him.
Naturally, Tianyi wasn't planning on killing Lovespot. But to have uttered those words without paying the price? Dream on!
"Grandfather! Save me!" Lovespot finally couldn't take it anymore and called out his trump card.
Moments later, a thunderous cry rang out, "Fan'er!"

Welcome to the world of Fantasiaia, a world full of magic, epic monsters, heroic battles and more! It's the new, cutting edge VRMMORPG world what everyone has dreamed about! And now welcome Markus Fickus, your average young man in our average and boring world! He was just an ordinary man, until one day, something changed his whole life. As he ate his breakfast on that fateful morning, little did he know that he would choke on his coffee and die—just to be reincarnated in the world of Fantasiaia! "Wait, what?" Mark said, looking up from his bowl of cereal. He didn't follow the script properly, and forgot to prepare his coffee. "I thought Fantasiaia was a VRMMO," Mark muttered as he made his way to his coffee machine. "How can someone reincarnate into a game?" Of course, what Mark didn't know was that logic and reason didn't matter. It was magic! Besides, everyone loves virtual reality stories and reincarnation novels. So why not have both? Mark shook his head sadly, but prepared his coffee in silence. When he finished, he looked up at the sky—and saw only the dull white ceiling of his apartment. He felt utterly cheated that the last thing he would see in this world was the peeling paint on the wall. "They are not paying me enough for this," Mark grumbled, then drank up his coffee. And then he died. PS: I found the cover picture on THE INTERNET. By no means will I tell you the artist's name or give any credit to them, but I let you know that the image is not mine.
