Chapter Title: Dog Man and Woman!

Sacred Fire Cliff. Perfected Being Heavy Light was in secluded meditation.
But just then, Perfected Being Yin Shan's voice boomed over, as if forcibly suppressing some emotion, though a hint of it slipped through.
"Senior Brother! Come out and watch the show!"
Perfected Being Heavy Light opened his eyes at the words and shook his head.
"Yin Shan, how many times have I told you? When something happens, stay calm and unflappable. Don't be so lacking in composure."
"It's just Chen Taihe attempting to break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage."
"He's had the third Heavenly Gang Earthly Fiend for ages now, and his substitute tribulation secret art is fully prepared. What's so strange about pushing for the late stage?"
Though he said this, no reproach showed on his face. There was even a touch of nostalgia. After all, he had once been like Yin Shan—fresh out of the novice stage, with little worldly experience, startling at the smallest things. But now, he had grown numb to so much.
Nothing under heaven could ripple his serene mind-lake anymore.
Loneliness, isolation, blandness—these were the paths every Foundation Establishment true person had to tread. The joys and sorrows of cultivation, the myriad states of the mortal world, all were contained therein.
"No, Lu Yang is sleeping with the wife of Heaven Mending Peak's Peak Master!"
". . . What?"
In the next instant, Perfected Being Heavy Light—who had just been the picture of calm—snapped his eyes wide open, instinctively doubting what he'd heard.
Lu Yang, sleeping with. . .
Who? Heaven Mending Peak Master's wife!?
Right now!?
Perfected Being Heavy Light instantly swept his divine sense out from Sacred Fire Cliff, peering far toward Heaven Mending Peak. At once, a spectacular scene unfolded before him.
There stood the vast Heaven Mending Peak. Outside, Heaven Mending Peak Master was undergoing his tribulation. Inside, Lu Yang and Madam Ruo Xiang had just stepped together into a grand hall. Their voices exploded outward via an amplification array.
The crowd of Primal Saint Sect true persons outside stared in dumbfounded shock.
You guys are serious?
"Slut! Slut! Slut!"
Within the Foundation Establishment zone, Heaven Mending Peak Master's face turned ashen with rage. He never imagined Lu Yang and Madam Ruo Xiang would stoop to such bestial depravity.
But in the next second, he slew all stray thoughts.
"Right now. . . the tribulation comes first!"
Heaven Mending Peak Master was still that great devil head. From fury to calm, his adjustment was lightning-quick. He even felt a touch of disdain for Lu Yang and Madam Ruo Xiang.
Did this adulterous pair think such cheap tactics could disrupt my state of mind?
At the thought, a cold glint flashed in Heaven Mending Peak Master's eyes.
"Yuantu. . . So, he already knows I joined hands with Fulong?"
This had to be revenge!
Can't take revenge on me, so you target my wife?
Beast!
For a moment, Heaven Mending Peak Master even marveled at Lu Yang's audacity and ability. No wonder Perfected Being Heavy Light thought so highly of him—truly gutsy beyond measure!
"Fine then. I'll just keep crossing the tribulation."
Heaven Mending Peak Master reined in his emotions, ignoring the deliberately broadcast moans echoing in his ears, ready to focus on the heavenly tribulation before him.
But the next second, he froze.
Because at that moment, Chen Shuqian—whose divine sense he had sealed—suddenly shuddered. Her formerly dazed eyes rapidly cleared!
"This is. . . [Two Bodies One Heart True Method]!?"
"Slut!"
Only now did Heaven Mending Peak Master truly panic. He instantly understood why Madam Ruo Xiang and Lu Yang were doing this at such a time.
The [Two Bodies One Heart True Method] deliberately linked the two casters, sharing all insights and sensations.
Madam Ruo Xiang had planted it in Chen Shuqian, originally intending to use it after her reincarnation to help Chen Shuqian break the fetal enigma with her aid.
But now, Madam Ruo Xiang had turned the true method against Chen Shuqian, jolting awake the one whose divine sense Heaven Mending Peak Master had suppressed, plunging her into stupor. In a way, it was no different from breaking the fetal enigma!
"Mm."
In the Foundation Establishment zone, Chen Shuqian's brows smoothed. Her stalled thoughts resumed churning.
"Ah!"
The next instant, a shrill scream rang out from Heaven Mending Peak.
Almost simultaneously, Chen Shuqian's beautiful eyes snapped open!
She was awake!
And in that instant of clarity, Chen Shuqian grasped her situation. Without the slightest hesitation—under Heaven Mending Peak Master's bulging-eyed glare—she detonated herself with a boom!
"No——!"
Her exploding flesh turned to a sky-filling blood mist, instantly staining Heaven Mending Peak Master's eyes red. With Chen Shuqian's self-detonation, she had brazenly severed their bloodline karma. He clearly sensed the substitute tribulation secret art he had planted in her dissipating, no longer able to draw the heavenly thunder away for him!
"Unfilial bitch!"
Heaven Mending Peak Master nearly ground his teeth to dust.
"If I hadn't exhausted every effort gathering resources for you, how could you have reached Foundation Establishment? Is this how you repay me?"
"Father, there you're wrong."
A wisp of Chen Shuqian's fragrant soul instantly fled the Foundation Establishment zone, leaving only an echoing remnant sound.
"For all our time as father and daughter, I didn't want to spell it out so plainly."
"But truth be told, I've never felt happy with you."
As her voice faded, Heaven Mending Peak Master saw Chen Shuqian drift lightly back to Heaven Mending Peak. At the same time, the peak's gates swung wide, revealing a palace hall.
Lu Yang and the somewhat disheveled Madam Ruo Xiang emerged, supporting each other.
In truth, this had been Madam Ruo Xiang's idea from start to finish. Such a mad revenge showed the depth of her grudge against Heaven Mending Peak Master.
"Chen Taihe, that's exactly what I want to say to you."
Madam Ruo Xiang's red lips parted slightly. She gave Heaven Mending Peak Master a cold smile.
"After all our time together, it wasn't even as pleasurable as that one go with Yuantu."
In the next second, Chen Shuqian landed and bowed deeply before Lu Yang.
"Thank you, Senior Yuantu, for saving my life. Shuqian will repay you handsomely one day."
Heaven Mending Peak Master: ". . ."
In that instant, Lu Yang watched as Heaven Mending Peak Master's face flushed red to the naked eye, white smoke visibly rising from all seven orifices.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Heaven Mending Peak Master drew a deep breath. He no longer looked at Madam Ruo Xiang or Chen Shuqian, suppressing his fury—because he still harbored hope.
To cross the [Heavenly Thunder], he had prepared a pair of children. It should have been foolproof. But now, with Madam Ruo Xiang and Chen Shuqian both turning against him, he had lost one substitute outright. Even so, with his strength, he still had a sixty percent chance of surviving the [Heavenly Thunder]!
'Once I break through to late stage. . . none of you will escape!'
Such utter humiliation from Madam Ruo Xiang, Chen Shuqian, and Lu Yang—even if he slaughtered the three adulterers in public, no one in the Primal Saint Sect could object.
That's right—as long as I succeed in my tribulation!
With that thought, Heaven Mending Peak Master turned blazing eyes to his other substitute.
"Xin'an, for your father, just go peacefully!"
At this life-or-death moment, he finally tore off the mask of paternal affection, revealing his greedy, mad true face. He cackled ferociously while casting the substitute tribulation secret art, about to draw the rolling [Heavenly Thunder] crashing down onto Chen Xin'an. . .
Then he witnessed a scene that nearly shattered his mind and soul.
"Sorry, Father. I've long been the young master's man."
Chen Xin'an—who should have had his divine sense suppressed like Chen Shuqian—suddenly opened his eyes without warning. Then, he let out a long sigh toward Heaven Mending Peak Master.
