That was not how the script was supposed to go!
It was supposed to be Master's silence. They were supposed to reprimand him and force Shen Zhenyi into a dead end. Then, Master would come out to be the good guy and show his intention to recruit them.
— What? Did he skip all that?
If they did not force this arrogant person into a dead end, how would they be willing to join him?
It was the same in the past. What was His Excellency planning this time?
They were surprised but none of them showed it.
Because everyone knew that Yuanyu Zhen was the smartest person here. His decision would not be wrong.
Although the bait thrown out was a little too big.
The cultivation in the obelisk was the most enviable place in Xuantian City.
— If there was no other reason, only those who had reached the Eighth Level of the True God could enter this place.
Every ten years, only the most outstanding youths in the Seventh Level of the True God Realm would have a chance to enter the obelisk.
This was not a huge number. There were at least a few hundred million people living in Xuantian City — if one were to count carefully, it might be even more.
The gap between the Seventh and Eighth Level of the True God was needless to say. Entering the obelisk was the easiest way to break through this gap in this world.
Yuanyu Zhen believed that no one would be able to resist this temptation.
Even if Shen Zhenyi was shockingly talented and far exceeded his expectations, it was still within the scope of his control.
"Oh."
Shen Zhenyi was as calm as water.
Yuanyu Zhen's eyelids twitched. What did that mean?
Which young man would not be excited and respectful when they heard the words' obelisk '? Shen Zhenyi was new here. How could he not know how powerful the obelisk was?
"The obelisk is the highest cultivation place in Xuantian City — in the entire Seven Wounds World. Powerful Eighth Level True Gods train their martial arts here to reach the Ninth Level of the True God."
"This is the pinnacle of martial arts!"
Yuanyu Zhen felt weird. It was as if he was trying to promote something.
But Shen Zhenyi just looked at him calmly.
Initiative and passivity seemed to change the moment they met.
Yuanyu Zhen's calm mind could not help but feel a wave of emotions.
"It's easier said than done to reach the peak of martial arts."
Shen Zhenyi's gaze seemed to pierce through the ceiling and into the boundless void.
Even if they were at the peak of the Nine Heavens, they might not have touched the peak of martial arts. Frogs at the bottom of a well were not worth mentioning.
Yuanba Zhen was embarrassed.
Why did this Third Young Master Shen never play by the rules?
But there was an aura of "I'm right" coming from him. Yuanujin didn't know how to refute. Or rather, if she refuted, her aura would weaken even more.
What was going on?
Fine beads of sweat seeped out of his palms. A strange feeling that something was wrong welled up from the bottom of his heart. He had seen millions of people, but he had never felt such a sense of crisis.
"So, what does Lord Yuan mean by saying all this? If the matter of me killing a personal guard of Xuantian City is settled, then I will take my leave first. "
Shen Zhenyi shrugged nonchalantly.
You didn't listen to me at all, did you?
Yuanba Zhen didn't show it on his face, but he was very irritated. He had cultivated for hundreds of years, and now he was threatened to lose it at any time.
"Third Young Master Shen, you must be joking."
He narrowed his eyes as a cold glint flashed across his eyes. "Killing a personal guard is a huge case in Xuantian City. How can I let you go so easily?"
He was still frightened by the aura of the other party sitting on the crystal throne. That was why he was at a loss.
Yuanba Zhen adjusted his state of mind.
Back then, outside King City, although it was just a soul transmission, he still felt superior.
But now … the other party had broken through to the seventh level of the True God Realm. The psychological advantage he thought he had was gone.
He was secretly vigilant.
But Shen Zhenyi's next sentence made him want to vomit blood.
"Didn't you say you could let it go? You still want to recommend me to cultivate in the obelisk? I'm not very interested in it. It's fine if I don't go. "
Shen Zhenyi was honest. There had to be an end to the killing of a personal guard. That was why he went with the flow to be questioned.
Once this was over, he had to quickly improve his realm and ascend to immortality with the Moon Decapitation. How could he be in the mood to meddle in worldly affairs?
Cultivating in the obelisk might be helpful to others, but it was nothing to him.
Shen Zhenyi could find a small inn to cultivate in seclusion. The effect would be the same.
Yuanba Zhen only took it as sarcasm and rejection.
Nobody could reject him face to face.
Except for dead people.
Yuanba Zhen's face darkened. "Third Young Master Shen is so arrogant. Does this mean there is no room for negotiation? Are you forcing me to do business?"
At this time, he felt a little regretful.
Before they met, he only thought that Shen Zhenyi, who rose from the wilderness, was a good chess piece. Now it seemed that these savages were indeed stones in the latrine pit. They were smelly and stubborn. If he wanted to cooperate with them, he had to tolerate their bad temper. How could the people of Xuantian City, who had always been high and mighty, tolerate this?
Princess Long couldn't stand it anymore. She finally said, "Master Yuanba, what do you want to say to my master? Please be more direct. My master is too lazy to care about worldly affairs and to guess what others are thinking. "
She had followed Shen Zhenyi for a long time. Of course, she knew very well.
Her master was a wise man. But if he was not interested in something, he would not waste any effort to guess unless he knew it innately.
Master Yuanba obviously wanted to talk about cooperation with her master. He just wanted to use the killing of a personal guard as a reason.
But he didn't say it directly. Shen Zhenyi was too lazy to think more about it.
Yuanba Zhen's face stiffened.
How elegant they were. They were ashamed to talk about benefits. It was an insult to ask him to talk about conditions with others.
What a boorish man!
Yuanba Zhen cursed in his heart. But when he looked at Shen Zhenyi, who was like an immortal from heaven, he couldn't bring himself to scold him.
He coughed, indicating that he could start talking.
This kind of specific condition was not suitable for him, the Commander of the Nine Gates, to say it.
The aide beside him also smiled bitterly. He had never encountered such a situation. Everyone in Xuantian City played Tai Chi on the table. Which one of them didn't have ideas under the table? Everything was put on the table. It was not like the political style of Xuantian City at all.
But … it seemed that Master Yuanba Zhen was at his wit's end. As an aide, he could only go straight to the point.
"Third Young Master Shen, you have already offended the royal family. Plus, you killed a personal guard. It can be said that you have not pleased either side. It is not easy to live in Xuantian City. Only by working for us can you live peacefully in Xuantian City. "
