Cen Shuyin was stunned. She really didn't expect that Special Envoy Xia would ask who her dao companion was. This was her private matter. Why did he have to ask?
"If you don't want to answer, I'll assume that you're just trying to fool me. Could it be that my appearance is too ugly and is not worthy of Junior Shuyin's discerning eyes? "The smile on Xia Mu's face disappeared and his tone became somewhat cold.
At the same time, anger gradually rose from the bottom of his heart. He had never been treated like this before. He was a prideful child who could possibly enter the Star King Mountain, and was a respected existence in the Zhen Mo Continent. In a trashy place like the Lost Continent, he was rejected twice in a row. Could it be that he, as a special envoy, was not to be trifled with and could not kill?
Cen Shuyin stood not far away and naturally felt Xia Mu's strong killing intent. Her heart was even more desolate. Ever since she entered the Heaven Seeking Palace and became the disciple of the Sword Lake Lord, Shen Kongjian, no one had ever dared to covet her looks. Because of this, she was not only a transcendent existence in the Heaven Seeking Palace, but even in the entire Five Great Empires.
But now, Special Envoy Xia was obviously threatening her, and she couldn't do anything about it. The sorrow in Cen Shuyin's heart was a sigh for her own fate, and also a sigh for her master, Shen Kongjian, who had disappeared in the foreign realm battle.
"Haha …" Feng Zhenqiu laughed out loud, stood up and cupped his fists, "Special Envoy, please don't be angry. I know Shuyin, this child, she's thin-skinned. If Special Envoy had not asked her, she wouldn't have even mentioned that she had a dao companion. Indeed, very few people know that she has a Dao companion, and I happen to be one of them. "
Cen Shuyin looked at Feng Zhenqiu in shock. She did not have a dao companion at all, and her words were just to fool Xia Mu.
Without waiting for Xia Mu to speak, Feng Zhenqiu continued, "Actually, Special Envoy Xia knows this person's name."
"I know? Who is it? " Xia Mu looked at Feng Zhenqiu in shock. In fact, when Cen Shuyin could not say the name of her dao companion, he had already suspected that Cen Shuyin was trying to fool him. Now that Feng Zhenqiu had taken the initiative to say that Cen Shuyin had a dao companion, he was naturally bewildered.
"He is a rogue cultivator, and his nickname is Rogue Cultivator 2705. Even if it's Shuyin, I'm afraid she doesn't know where her dao companion is, "Feng Zhenqiu chuckled.
Rogue Cultivator 2705 only appeared once before disappearing once again. The Heaven Seeking Palace and the Great Evolution Sect had tried to find this person but to no avail. Using Rogue Cultivator 2705 to fool Xia Mu was the best option.
The Heaven Seeking Palace and the Great Evolution Sect were the two strongest sects in the Lost Continent. Even the Heaven Seeking Palace and the Great Evolution Sect were unable to locate Rogue Cultivator 2705, so Feng Zhenqiu did not believe that this Xia Mu would be able to find him.
Cen Shuyin's heart sank. She wasn't happy at all. Although she was very grateful to Feng Zhenqiu for helping her out, she really did not want to implicate others. She had never seen this Rogue Cultivator 2705 before. If it was possible, she would not have wanted Dean Feng to say such words. Because if Xia Mu managed to find Rogue Cultivator 2705, 2705 would definitely not live for more than an incense's time.
She was also clear of Feng Zhenqiu's intentions; he believed that Xia Mu would definitely not be able to find this Rogue Cultivator 2705. But how could he be so sure of such things?
This made Cen Shuyin feel extremely guilty and tormented. Ever since she started cultivating, she had never been distracted. Feng Zhenqiu's words saved her once, but it also left a trace in her heart.
If nothing happened to Rogue Cultivator 2705, this trace of her would affect her pursuit of the Dao. If Rogue Cultivator 2705 was really killed because of her, then her Dao would also be destroyed. Her character would not allow such a thing to happen, and her Dao would not allow her to bear such guilt.
It was because of this Dao heart that even if she was exchanging a skill with an outer disciple, she would do her best, and bring out her best.
Now that Dean Feng had said such words, she could not refute it. If she did, with Xia Mu's strength, he could very well kill Dean Feng.
If she could turn back time, she would rather say that she did not want a dao companion than say that she had a dao companion, which would implicate others.
Xia Mu furrowed his brows and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "I remember now, isn't it that number one on the Hundred Sect Alliance's Contribution Points Board?"
Feng Zhenqiu hurriedly said, "That's him. Even though his talent is exceptional, he does not like to be tied down by a sect, so he chose to become a rogue cultivator. With his talent, he doesn't even care about the big sects, so he naturally wouldn't be interested in ordinary girls. "
Feng Zhenqiu's words implied that Rogue Cultivator 2705 and the beautiful Cen Shuyin were a perfect match.
Xia Mu's expression returned to normal, and he looked at Cen Shuyin and said, "Go and find that Rogue Cultivator 2705. It would be a loss for our continent if such a talent didn't go to Star King Mountain."
Cen Shuyin remained silent. She could not explain that Feng Zhenqiu was wrong, nor would she admit that Rogue Cultivator 2705 was her dao companion.
"Shuyin, you can leave first. If you can contact your dao companion, tell him about the special envoy's invitation. Of course, whether he goes to Zhen Mo Continent or not is his freedom. " Feng Zhenqiu hurriedly interrupted and asked Cen Shuyin to leave. If this carried on, it was hard to guarantee that this Xia Mu would not fly into a rage and start a massacre.
Cen Shuyin bowed towards Feng Zhenqiu, and just as she was about to leave, Defender Xu suddenly asked, "What's the cultivation level of that Rogue Cultivator 2705?"
Cen Shuyin's footsteps stopped. She did not even know Rogue Cultivator 2705, so how would she know what his cultivation level was? She had also heard that Rogue Cultivator 2705 was in the Transcending Mortality Stage, but she did not believe such rumours. No matter how lucky a Transcending Mortality Stage cultivator was, he would not be able to take the number one spot on the Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution Point Board.
Great Evolution Sect's Sect Head Jiang Xiushan spoke to help her out, "Answering Defender Xu, I heard that Rogue Cultivator 2705 is only in the Transcending Mortality Stage. He's a pale faced scholar. His cultivation level is not high, but he's really strong. According to a True Lake Stage cultivator from the Heaven Seeking Palace Pill Pagoda, during his battle with alien cultivators, he was surrounded by hundreds of alien cultivators. Not only did he kill all of them, he even saved that True Lake Stage cultivator's life by killing an expert half a step into the Nihility God Stage. Among the hundreds of cultivators that surrounded him, there were a few Yuan Dan Stage Earth Realm cultivators. "
Defender Xu, who was just casually asking, suddenly stood up and raised his voice to ask, "Is this person really that powerful? Could it be a rumour? "
Jiang Xiushan also hurriedly stood up and clasped his fists, "This is not a rumour. Many people have heard of this, and he even killed the clansman of a legacy disciple of my Great Evolution Sect. Of course, when he killed that Nihility God Stage cultivator, that Nihility God Stage cultivator was already heavily injured, so his sneak attack was considered successful. "
Defender Xu nodded, "Even so, it's still very impressive. If we find this person, we must definitely bring him to Zhen Mo Continent. This kind of talent is exactly what the Star King Mountain needs. "
Special Envoy Xia hurriedly said, "Defender Xu, don't worry. I will definitely find Rogue Cultivator 2705, and I will not let such a talent slip away."
Gu Shaoyin, who was standing slightly further away, revealed a mocking smile. Even if he was surrounded by a few hundred Yuan Dan Stage cultivators, he wouldn't be able to kill them all. How did this Rogue Cultivator 2705 do it? To fight against the alien cultivators, the Lost Continent purposely created a Rogue Cultivator 2705 to boost everyone's morale. Why did Rogue Cultivator 2705 not dare to meet anyone? That was because this was a fictional character.
Cen Shuyin's heart was filled with disdain. Defender Xu was looking for Rogue Cultivator 2705, so he should be sincerely appreciating talent. And this Special Envoy Xia was probably looking for this person to kill him.
"Seniors, Shuyin will take her leave." Cen Shuyin clasped her fists once more, then left the main altar. She made up her mind, and immediately returned to the Heaven Seeking Palace Sword Lake to cultivate. As for Zhen Mo Continent, so what if she didn't go? Her master could cultivate to the True God Stage in the Lost Continent, so she could do the same.
…
After an incense's time, the red faced tall man whispered to Xia Mu, "Cen Shuyin left Yan City alone. I guess she went to look for that Rogue Cultivator 2705."
At this moment, on Stage Number 5, the battle between two Yuan Dan Stage experts attracted the attention of many. Xia Mu stared at the battle on Stage Number 5 without batting an eyelid, and at the same time, he said indifferently, "Follow them and do it."
The red faced tall man didn't even reply. He stood behind Xia Mu for a while, then left as if nothing had happened.
"What are you following me for?" Just as he left Yan City, the red faced man noticed Gu Shaoyin following him.
"Elder Ceng, I want to see if that Rogue Cultivator 2705 is really that strong, or if he doesn't exist," Gu Shaoyin said after bowing.
The red faced man smiled slightly, "That's fine, then let's go together."
There were some things that he couldn't do, so he would let this silly fella who only knew how to cultivate do it. He understood Gu Shaoyin too well; this was a fella who only knew how to cultivate and pursue power. After hearing of Rogue Cultivator 2705's deeds, no matter how suspicious he was, he would not be satisfied if he didn't see it for himself.
If he was a fella who could settle for anything, then he wouldn't have followed Mo Wuji from the Zhen Mo Continent to the Lost Continent.
…
The extraterritorial war had dragged on for too long, and the prosperity of Heaven Seeking City had gradually faded. Even though the war in the outer realms had ended, the prosperity of Heaven Seeking City had yet to recover.
The moment Mo Wuji entered the Heaven Seeking City, the first thing he felt was the cold and spacious streets.
"Head senior brother …" The moment Mo Wuji arrived at the entrance of Heaven Seeking City's Immortal Training Inn, Pu Qian, who was pacing back and forth at the entrance, came forward to welcome him.
"This isn't a good place to talk, let's go up first." Mo Wuji gestured to Pu Qian and walked into the inn.
In the spacious room, Sang Yiping, Zhuang Yan and Nie Zhengnong were all present. From their expressions, Mo Wuji knew that something must have happened.
When they saw Mo Wuji return, they heaved a sigh of relief and stood up.
(The second update is here, requesting for monthly votes. At the same time, I would like to recommend a new book, "Chronicles of Rivers and Mountains and Beauties", "Playing with the Tides", "Official Road Without Borders", by the author, Rui Gen, "Beacon Emperor". It's a historical fantasy genre. Rising from the wilderness, making a name for oneself on the battlefield, sweeping through the imperial court. This book will give you a different fantasy experience.)
