This room was a special reception room. The decoration was very luxurious, and the heating was very good. However, as soon as Xia Ruofei entered the room, he saw that Shen Hu hadn't even sat down. He was standing in the reception room cautiously. There was a bowl of steaming ginger soup on the side table, and it seemed that he hadn't drunk a single sip.
As soon as Xia Ruofei entered the room, Shen Hu quickly raised his head. When he saw Xia Ruofei's young face, he hesitated for a moment, but he immediately asked respectfully, "Are you Senior Xia?"
Although Xia Ruofei's name was very famous in the cultivation world recently, he didn't come into contact with many cultivators, and they were all high-level cultivators like Chen Nanfeng and Mu Sheng. Shen Hu, the head of a small sect, had never seen Xia Ruofei's real appearance. Therefore, when he saw such a young man come in and couldn't feel any aura of power, he really couldn't be sure for a moment.
Xia Ruofei showed a faint smile and threw out a few array talismans, setting up a soundproof barrier in the reception room. Although the staff of the courtyard house were unlikely to eavesdrop, it was still related to the cultivation world, so Xia Ruofei still took some precautions to avoid being accidentally heard.
After setting up the soundproof barrier, Xia Ruofei said mockingly, "Sect Leader Shen, you don't even know what I look like, and you dare to covet my cultivation place?"
At this time, how could Shen Hu dare to have the slightest doubt? Although Xia Ruofei's body still did not emit the slightest bit of pressure, Shen Hu simply could not set up the soundproof array in an instant.
"Senior Xia!" Shen Hu quickly said, "It's all my fault for not recognizing Mount Tai! Please forgive me, Senior Xia! "
Xia Ruofei didn't comment. He pointed to the ginger soup and said lightly, "Is the ginger soup made by our chef very bad?"
Shen Hu said in fear, "I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! This junior is extremely grateful for Senior's concern, but this junior can still endure the cold. In addition, this junior's heart is filled with fear, so I really don't dare to accept Senior's kindness … "
"Drink it, then sit down and talk," Xia Ruofei said lightly, and then asked, "You're not afraid that I'll poison it, are you?"
"It's nothing!" Shen Hu jumped in shock and hurriedly said, "Senior, if you want to kill me, you can do it with a flick of your finger. There's no need for you to go through so much trouble … Senior Xia, then I'll … I'll take it!"
After saying that, Shen Hu didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He immediately picked up the bowl of ginger soup and gulped it down.
He wiped his mouth and said, "Thank you for your generous gift, Senior!"
At this time, Xia Ruofei had already sat down on the sofa. He pointed to the sofa opposite him and said lightly, "Sit!"
"Thank you, Senior Xia!" Shen Hu didn't dare to decline and sat down on the sofa opposite Xia Ruofei.
Of course, he didn't dare to sit too close. He just leaned a little closer to the side, and his whole person still seemed very reserved.
"Tell me! What's going on? "Xia Ruofei asked.
Shen Hu didn't dare to delay and hurriedly said, "Senior Xia, this is purely a misunderstanding! Seven days ago, a disciple of the Water Yuan Sect passed by the capital and accidentally found your cultivation place, which is the Taoyuan Club. The place is full of spiritual energy. Now that the cultivation environment has deteriorated, there are very few places where you can cultivate 24 hours a day. So, this disciple acted as if he had found a treasure. He did a simple survey and understood the situation of the Taoyuan Club. He then hurriedly returned to the sect to report. I really didn't know that the Taoyuan Club was Senior Xia's cultivation place. Otherwise … even if it wasn't Senior Xia's cultivation place, even if it was a cultivation place opened by other fellow cultivators, I would never send someone to seize it! Moreover, I sent Deacon Liu and also asked Lu You to come and assist her, so that we could use the secular world's commercial means to buy the club. In this way, the cultivation treasure would naturally become our Water Yuan Sect's property. I did think so, but I didn't expect Deacon Liu to be so daring as to use the cultivator's means to force the Taoyuan Club's shareholders to give up the club … "
On the way here, Shen Hu had rehearsed many times in his mind. So, this large paragraph of wording was very smooth, and he almost didn't stutter. In addition, after he arrived in the capital, the first thing he did was to find Deacon Liu to understand the situation. When he heard Deacon Liu say that she wanted to use the cultivator's means to force ordinary people, and that she was caught red-handed by a Golden Core senior, he was almost scared out of his wits.
So, he quickly went to the courtyard house in Liuhai Lane and asked to see Xia Ruofei. When he learned that Xia Ruofei wasn't at home, he stood still at the gate and waited. His purpose was to let Xia Ruofei see his sincerity, so that he wouldn't be so harsh on him.
Of course, because Chen Xuan had repeatedly emphasized, when Shen Hu returned to the capital, he avoided Lu You, including finding Deacon Liu to understand the situation. Shen Hu also didn't reveal anything to Deacon Liu.
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "I've already punished your Deacon. I've already told Brother Chen Xuan that this matter would end here, but you still insisted on going back to Huaxia!"
"Senior Xia is magnanimous!" Shen Hu said, "But I have to know my limits. Although I offended you without knowing it, an offense is an offense. As the head of the Shui Yuan Sect, I should go and ask for forgiveness when my disciple did such a thing!"
"Well! Since you're here, let's do it! " Xia Ruofei said lightly, "You have to learn a lesson in the future. How can there be a treasure land without an owner on Earth? Especially in a place like the capital, if there really was a treasure land full of Spiritual Qi, it would have been discovered by other cultivators long ago. Would it be your turn to pick it up? "
Although the cultivation world basically didn't take the initiative to contact the secular world, it was common for cultivators to walk in the mortal world. The capital was the political and economic center of Huaxia, so the probability of cultivators coming here was still higher than in other cities. For so many years, no one had found a treasure land for cultivation, and they were waiting for the Shui Yuan Sect, which was already stationed overseas, to find it? It was obvious that this matter was unreliable.
Shen Hu was also ashamed. He lowered his head and said, "It's all because I was blinded by greed! Senior Xia, I'm willing to take all the responsibility. No matter what punishment you give me, I won't complain. I just beg senior to let go of the Shui Yuan Sect. The other disciples are innocent … "
Xia Ruofei still didn't comment. He just asked lightly, "Lu You doesn't know my identity, right?"
Shen Hu quickly said, "She doesn't know! Senior Xia has already instructed me. How would I dare to reveal it to her? "
No matter what the reason was for Xia Ruofei, Shen Hu didn't dare to neglect it. Since Xia Ruofei didn't want Lu You to know his identity as a cultivator, and especially didn't want Lu You to know that he was the Gold Core stage senior who gave her cultivation resources the night before, then Shen Hu must help keep it strictly confidential.
Xia Ruofei nodded slightly and said, "Lu You and I are ordinary friends in the secular world. In the future, when she is in your Shui Yuan Sect, you should take care of her appropriately, but don't let her know my identity, understand?"
"Understood! Understood! "Shen Hu hurriedly nodded and said," Senior, please rest assured that I will do my best to train her! I've learned that Lu You's cultivation talent is still very good. Although she came into contact with cultivation a little late, senior gave her a precious Spiritual Crystal. Her cultivation should be able to improve very quickly. "
To be honest, when Shen Hu learned that Lu You had a Spiritual Crystal, he couldn't help but be a little jealous. Especially when Deacon Liu told him that Xia Ruofei also gave Lu You a cultivation method called "Shui Yuan Scripture", which was highly suspected to be a cultivation method that had been lost in the sect. He was even more tempted.
However, this Spiritual Crystal and cultivation method were given to Lu You by Xia Ruofei, and he had already made it clear that no one was allowed to covet it. Therefore, even if he was given a few guts, he didn't dare to have any improper thoughts. Moreover, he had to escort Lu You, in case some people in the sect were blind and coveted Lu You's Spiritual Crystal and cultivation method.
Xia Ruofei said lightly, "Just give her some normal care. Don't let her feel that it's too abnormal."
"Yes! Junior will make sure to control this well. " Shen Hu said, "The sect has a special training mechanism for some geniuses. Lu You's talent must have reached the standard of a genius in the sect. Therefore, it's normal for resources to be biased towards her. She won't feel that something is wrong!"
Any cultivation sect would give preferential treatment to geniuses because geniuses were the easiest to grow up and were most likely to give back to the sect in the future. Of course, if it weren't for Xia Ruofei, Lu You's talent could only be regarded as above average. It was barely enough to reach the standard of a genius. However, it was impossible for her to get too much special care in the sect.
With Xia Ruofei's words, even if Lu You's talent was average, she would definitely be trained as a genius.
In fact, when Xia Ruofei made the request, Shen Hu couldn't be happier. This meant that Xia Ruofei wouldn't punish the Water Yuan Sect too severely, at least he wouldn't destroy it. Otherwise, if the sect didn't even exist, how could he take care of Lu You in the sect?
Xia Ruofei nodded slightly and said, "It's good that you know what you're doing! In addition … I've already punished Deacon Liu, and she can no longer cultivate in the future, so don't kill her anymore. Let her be an ordinary person! "
"I'll do as you say, Senior Xia!" Shen Hu said without hesitation.
Then, Shen Hu said, "By the way, Senior Xia, the Tianyi Palace will select a group of disciples from their vassal sects to cultivate in the Tianyi Palace every three years. Each time, it lasts for three years. This time, our Water Yuan Sect has two places. I want to give one of them to Lu You. After she goes to the Tianyi Palace, she will still be a disciple of the Water Yuan Sect, but she can enjoy the cultivation resources of the Tianyi Palace disciples. Moreover, there will be Young Master Chen in the sect to take care of her, so her safety is definitely not a problem. What do you think? "
Xia Ruofei said, "You can arrange it as you see fit! I have no objection. "
These disciples of the vassal sects were selected to cultivate in the Tianyi Palace for three years, which was equivalent to cultivating in the secular world. Xia Ruofei didn't know if the Tianyi Palace really had such a practice, but he knew that this must be Chen Xuan's way of showing goodwill to him. Naturally, he wouldn't refuse Chen Xuan's kindness.
"Okay! I'll arrange it after we go back this time! " Shen Hu said, "In fact, because our Water Yuan Sect's strength is average, we only have one place each time. This time, Young Master Chen specially gave us an extra place. In fact, it was prepared for Lu You!"
Chen Xuan had done him a favor, so Shen Hu naturally didn't dare to hide it, lest Xia Ruofei remembered the favor.
Xia Ruofei nodded slightly and said, "Thank Brother Chen Xuan for me!"
Then, Xia Ruofei said again, "Well, Master Shen, this matter ends here! I've seen your sincerity, and the person responsible has been punished. In the future, you just have to take care of yourselves. "
Shen Hu's hanging heart finally fell to the ground. He also secretly rejoiced in his heart. Although this Senior Xia was a cultivator at the Gold Core stage, he was not overbearing. Although there was a faint trace of sharpness, his overall attitude was relatively gentle. If it were other cultivators at the Gold Core stage, they would definitely be unforgiving when they encountered such a thing. Moreover, they couldn't do anything about it. After all, their strength was crushed by the other party.
"Thank you for your magnanimity, Senior Xia! I will definitely take this as a warning! "Shen Hu said excitedly.
Xia Ruofei nodded lightly.
Just as Shen Hu was about to get up and leave, Xia Ruofei suddenly asked, "Oh right, Master Shen, your sect is called the Water Element Sect. What cultivation method do you cultivate?"
Shen Hu couldn't help but be stunned.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "If it's not convenient to say, then forget it. I was just casually asking."
"Convenient! Convenient! " Shen Hu hurriedly said, "To be honest with Senior Xia, the main cultivation method passed down in the Water Element Sect is the Water Element Scripture. However, with the passage of time, after our sect has experienced several disasters in the past few hundred years, our strength has declined a lot. Moreover, the cultivation method inheritance was almost broken. Now, the Water Element Scripture cultivation method in the sect is only a fragment. Even I, the Sect Master, am cultivating an incomplete version of the Water Element Scripture."
Speaking of this, Shen Hu couldn't help but sigh and said, "This is also an important reason why our sect's strength is low. As the Sect Master, I'm actually still a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage. Thinking about it, I've let down my ancestors!"
"Oh? So, the Water Element Sect also once had a glorious history? "Xia Ruofei asked with interest.
In fact, when he chose the Water Element Scripture cultivation method to give to Lu You, he didn't consider too much about the Water Element Sect. It was entirely because Lu You's physique was especially suitable for water attribute cultivation methods. This Water Element Scripture just so happened to be a water attribute cultivation method. Moreover, it was one of the better cultivation methods that Xia Ruofei had mastered. This cultivation method was relatively easy to get started with and it was also very strong. It was especially suitable for a newbie like Lu You who stepped into the path of cultivation later.
Now it seemed that this cultivation method was very likely to be the Water Element Sect's legacy cultivation method. With Xia Ruofei's understanding of this cultivation method, if the Water Element Sect had cultivated the complete version of this cultivation method, then the strength of this sect should be relatively strong. This was because the cultivation methods that could be included in the Jade Talisman of Inheritance or the top level of the Training Tower were all excellent cultivation methods that had been selected.
This Water Element Scripture was naturally no exception. Moreover, it was a relatively good cultivation method among these excellent cultivation methods.
