After returning to the inn, Xie Tian started to practice the nine sets of Cultivation Techniques. When the last ray of light disappeared from the floor, he called Zheng Yu and Xie Bao over. The three of them left the inn, and soon, they saw a group of knights galloping toward the inn.
"They are going as well?" Mu Liang asked indifferently as he glanced at Zheng Yu and Xie Bao.
"Can they?"
"Haha! If they are house servants, sure."
Zheng Yu was enraged. He shouted at Xie Tian, "How did I become a house servant?!"
"Then wait for me here. Maybe three to five years …"
"House servants it is!" Zheng Yu jumped onto his horse with tears streaming down his face. He thought to himself, What's the difference between my work and that of a house servant? I'll just submit.
After the two groups met, they went straight out of Hegemon Sword City's western gate. After galloping for fifty kilometers, the weather grew colder. The hot air they exhaled turned into ice mist in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, after galloping for another fifteen kilometers, they arrived at the shore of the Chu Lao Sea. The group quickly dismounted and rushed to the ferry port to rest.
"Phew! It's so damn cold! "
Zheng Yu shivered a few times the moment he entered the house. Even if he used his Inner Qi to ward off the cold, he still could not take it.
Xie Tian swept his gaze around the room and discovered that there were at least over a hundred people warming their feet and resting here. These people discovered Mu Liang and all of them stood up to greet him, their attitudes extremely respectful. Mu Liang casually replied a few words, but he suddenly thought of Xie Tian as he smiled, "Xie Tian, come over, let me introduce you to the young geniuses of my Chu."
The two words "Xie Tian" caused everyone to discuss suspiciously.
"Xie Tian? Could he be from the Song Nation … "
"That should be the case. I heard that he is a killing cultivator. He started a massacre in the Song Nation and was forced to flee to the Chu Nation …"
"Killing cultivator my ass. Have you seen a killing cultivator with a family?"
"I did not expect Xie Tian to be so young. He is probably only sixteen or seventeen?"
…
Everyone looked at Xie Tian with different emotions in their eyes, but most of them were not kind. Seeing this, Mu Liang was overjoyed.
Xie Tian's expression was calm. After tying the pony, he glanced at the crowd and nodded, "Greetings, everyone."
"Xie Tian, these people are all members of the aristocratic clans of our Chu Country. All of them have extraordinary talent and high cultivation bases …"
Mu Liang's status in the Chu Country was very high, hence, his praises were very heavy. When these people heard this, their faces all turned red as they hurriedly thanked him. However, in their hearts, they felt extremely happy. But they didn't know that at the end of his speech, Mu Liang's attitude changed as he smiled, "Naturally, compared to you, they are far inferior."
The atmosphere instantly turned cold.
Xie Tian could feel the gazes on him gradually turning cold, but he didn't care. His expression remained calm.
Seeing this, Mu Liang cursed in his heart, Let's see how long you can pretend for. Then, he smiled and said, "You should know that the eldest disciple of the Song Nation's Scarlet Cloud Peak, Tong Lang, died in your hands. Tsk tsk, if it wasn't for our Chu Country's Li Jian, the number one genius of the Wanzhou would definitely be you. Everyone, don't you think so?"
"Haha, since Young Master Liang said so, then it must be so!"
"Young Master Xie Tian is indeed talented!"
"Hehe, I'm afraid even Young Master Li Jian can't compare to him …"
…
Everyone praised Xiao Chen one after another, but their tone was filled with sarcasm. Even a deaf person could hear it.
However, who was Xie Tian? There was only one word in his heart, he didn't care about the likes and dislikes of others. Even Mu Liang felt that everyone's sarcasm was too much, but Xie Tian was still calm and collected. He even nodded his head as he listened, as if everyone was really praising him.
The group of Chu Country's geniuses were speechless. Regardless of whether Xie Tian was strong or not, his skin was the thickest since ancient times. Seeing this, Mu Liang became anxious. He rolled his eyes and let out a long sigh, "What a pity, such a genius had his Inner Qi destroyed. What a pity, what a pity …"
Speaking of which, Mu Liang actually had a good impression of Xie Tian. After all, the forty years of humiliation on the Mu Clan's head had been cut off by Xie Tian.
If it was anyone else, Mu Liang would definitely treat them with respect and treat them as a distinguished guest. But it was still the same. Xie Tian was too heaven-defying, and Mu Liang was the same as Little Nine. He had always been proud and arrogant, and even Xu Zhantang was not worthy of his attention. Now that a monster who could kill a boy had suddenly appeared, how could he not feel uncomfortable in his heart?
When Lan Zhuicheng found out that Xie Tian's Inner Qi had indeed been destroyed, he felt a little better. Since he had become an ordinary person, he would not fuss about it. However, he did not fuss about it, but Xie Tian came to Hegemon Sword City and even threatened to go to the Sword Tomb …
Mu Liang clearly wanted to trample on him. Therefore, Mu Liang played along and agreed to bring Xie Tian there. In fact, he wanted to see Xie Tian make a fool of himself. He wanted to see Xie Tian's anger after being humiliated.
Then, he would be angry that he did not see Xie Tian's calmness. To put it bluntly, he was thick-skinned. How could he endure this? He immediately revealed Xie Tian's secret without thinking.
As soon as these words came out, the big room suddenly became quiet. Everyone present was an Inner Qi realm warrior. How could they not know the importance of Inner Qi?
If Xie Tian lost his Inner Qi, he would definitely become an ordinary person in three months to half a year. This kind of person was not qualified to enter the Hegemon Sword Sect, let alone the Sword Tomb!
"His Inner Qi was destroyed? Isn't he an ordinary person? "
"Yes, the Sword Tomb is such a mysterious place. How can an ordinary person be qualified to go there?"
"Xie Tian, since you are already an ordinary person, why don't you leave!"
"One must know one's limits. Don't think that you are still a genius!"
…
Seeing that Xie Tian finally had a trace of gloomy wrinkles between his brows, Mu Liang was delighted. He coughed a few times and said, "It's good to go and try. The Sword Tomb is so mysterious. What if we happen to need an ordinary disciple this time? Besides, this Young Master has already promised Xie Tian that I will bring him to the Sword Tomb to broaden his horizons. This Young Master has always been a man of his word. "
"Haha, so he is going to be a bystander!"
"Young Master Liang's righteousness is really admirable!"
"Xie Tian, hurry up and thank Young Master Liang. You should know that ordinary people are absolutely not qualified to step into the Sword Tomb!"
…
Everyone's mocking voices became louder and louder. The gloominess between Xie Tian's brows became heavier and heavier. The smile on Mu Liang's face became wider and wider …
Suddenly, Xie Tian turned his head to look at Mu Liang.
Mu Liang suppressed the excitement in his heart and looked at Xie Tian. He thought to himself, "You are really going to be angry. This Young Master has been waiting for this moment!"
"I am going to kill someone."
Mu Liang was stunned. His face immediately became gloomy and he shouted coldly, "This is the State of Chu. Where did you get the courage to kill someone for no reason!"
His voice hadn't fallen when everyone was shocked. Because the figure of Xie Tian in front of them disappeared in an instant!
"Xie Tian, how dare you!" Mu Liang was shocked and angry. He had never thought that the calm Xie Tian would kill someone the moment he turned hostile. He immediately shouted, "Stop him for me!"
The six guards behind Mu Liang immediately burst out with unparalleled aura when they heard this. Their inner Qi was like a dream. They were actually all experts in the late stage of the Inner Qi Realm.
Just as the six of them rushed forward, a loud sound suddenly exploded in the big house, like a clap of thunder!
In the next moment, everyone saw Xie Tian in the crowd half-kneeling on the ground with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. And opposite of Xie Tian, a person flew out. The person's clothes were tattered and revealed a golden light.
Bang!
When he saw the golden light on the person's body clearly, Mu Liang's pupils shrank and he shouted, "Come back!"
The six guards were stunned and immediately retreated to Mu Liang's side. Their eyes were full of vigilance as they stared at the person who was blown away by Xie Tian.
Xie Tian stood up slowly and asked softly, "Who are you to Tong Lang?"
"I didn't expect that you would see through me." Wiping the blood at the corner of his mouth, he tore off his guard uniform. The golden light on the person's body became even more dazzling. He looked at Xie Tian coldly and said word by word, "Crimson Cloud Peak's second disciple, Mo Yan!"
