Previously, Zhao Liangyu was a little against Chu Xiu because the opposite sex repels each other. He was afraid that his junior sister would be so close to a stranger.
But later, Zhao Liangyu showed such hostility towards Chu Xiu was not because of this reason, but because he realized that Chu Xiu was really not an easy person to recognize. In other words, Chu Xiu's thoughts were not as simple as he made them out to be!
As the eldest senior brother of the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect, Zhao Liangyu's talent and cultivation were not as good as Lin Fengwu's, but he was able to sit firmly in this position all these years and gain Lin Yazi's favor. One of the very important reasons was that he had a special ability, and that was that he was born with very keen senses.
This sense did not refer to the five senses or the sixth sense, but he could sense a person's inner activities.
Of course, this sense was not mind-reading. He could only feel a very vague general idea, such as whether the other party was scheming against him or had ill intentions, and so on.
Relying on this sense, Zhao Liangyu defeated many senior and junior brothers who were secretly scheming against him in the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect and sat firmly in the position of eldest senior brother.
Previously, when facing Chu Xiu, he had never been able to see through Chu Xiu's thoughts.
It was only when Chu Xiu said those words at the banquet that Zhao Liangyu vaguely felt that this Chu Xiu seemed to be hiding a lot of things. His thoughts were definitely not simple, and he was definitely not a good person!
However, because his previous hostility towards Chu Xiu was too obvious, Lin Fengwu did not believe what he said at all.
"Senior Brother, can you be a little more mature? Don't involve others in the matter between us. Senior Chu is already a Foreign Elder of my Nine Phoenix Sword Sect now. If you speak ill of him again, then I'll have to tell Father."
After saying that, Lin Fengwu left a little angrily.
Looking at his back, Zhao Liangyu snorted coldly and said, "If you don't listen to others, you will definitely regret it in the end!"
The next morning, after Chu Xiu woke up early, he first went to the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect's Scripture Pavilion to find many books to read.
Of course, Chu Xiu wasn't here for the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect's cultivation technique manuals.
Although the cultivation technique of the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect was not considered low-level, it was definitely not high-level either. Chu Xiu could not be bothered to look at it even if it was given to him for free. What Chu Xiu was looking at were some general questions about the Daluotian people, as well as some Daluotian history.
Previously, Chu Xiu had thought that the Daluotian would definitely cover up that part of history. After all, what the Daluotian ancestors had done back then wasn't exactly glorious.
It was fine to escape to another world, but it was a blatant abandonment of the word 'fairness'. Although it was pardonable, it was not honorable.
But it turned out that these things were recorded very clearly in the Daluotian's ancient books.
In ancient times, the whole world was divided into four regions: East, West, South, and North. Therefore, after the Daluotian people came to the Daluotian, although the terrain of the Daluotian was completely different from that of the Mortal World, they still kept this name, perhaps because they missed their ancestral land. Even some counties were named after the former names.
And in the center of the four regions was the Daluotian Divine Palace.
This Daluotian Divine Palace was the center of the entire Daluotian, and it was also where the Dragon Vein was located. It was also the place where the ancient martial artists broke through the world and entered the Daluotian. Therefore, it was very important and was jointly controlled by the top sects. Every ten years, the top sects were qualified to send a group of people to enter the Daluotian Divine Palace to cultivate.
These things were recorded in detail in the Daluotian history. No wonder the people who ran out of the battlefield between Dugu Weiwei and Ning Xuanji shouted something about the Ancestral Land and were killed by Fang Qinglan in the end. It turned out that almost everyone in the Daluotian knew about the Ancestral Land.
However, the Daluotian people did not know that there were still people living in the Ancestral Land. At least in the ancient books recorded by the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect, there were only descriptions about the Mortal World before the Great Ancient Tribulation, but not after. The ancient books also tacitly agreed that their Ancestral Land had been destroyed in the Great Ancient Tribulation, and there was no vitality.
In the following time, Chu Xiu learned some more common knowledge about the Daluotian, and he also learned the Daluotian language fluently.
Although his accent was a little awkward before, Lin Fengwu and Lin Yazi did not care. They thought that it was because he stayed in the mountains and forests for a long time without anyone to talk to.
But now it was time for Chu Xiu to change his accent, otherwise it might arouse the suspicion of others.
Chu Xiu stayed in the Sutras Depository for many days, but Lin Yazi could not sit still.
He asked Chu Xiu to be a guest because he wanted him to help strengthen the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect, not to let Chu Xiu read books.
But now, during this period, Chu Xiu directly went into the Sutras Depository and did not come out.
Lin Yazi had to invite Chu Xiu out of the Sutras Depository. Chu Xiu was still a little unwilling, and said, "Lord Lin, I have stayed in the forest for so long, and I must finish reading the movements outside. There are still many ancient books that I have not finished reading. Why did you bring me out?"
Chu Xiu was really reading in the Sutras Depository.
How could he finish understanding the ten thousand years of Daluotian history in just a few days?
It wasn't that Chu Xiu was fond of studying such things. Rather, he wanted to learn more about the Celestial Exalted Plane's history over the past 10,000 years. He wanted to see how the forces and sects of the Celestial Exalted Plane operated and their personalities.
After reading for a few days, if Chu Xiu had to give an evaluation to the Daluotian, then Chu Xiu's evaluation would be: ancient.
Ancient did not mean strong or good, but it did not mean bad either.
The inheritance of the Daluotian could be traced back to ancient times. More than half of the current Daluotian sects, or more accurately, 80% of the factions, could be traced back to ancient times.
There was also Chu Xiu's fake identity, and the inheritance of the Primes, which could be traced back to ancient times.
In other words, after a whole ten thousand years, only twenty percent of the Daluotian factions had risen. This was simply inconceivable.
In the lower realms, it was the opposite. Factions that had more than ten thousand years of inheritance were rare.
Chu Xiu did not know whether this situation was good or bad. Was it because the Daluotian factions were too strong and stable, or because the Daluotian cultivators lacked the fighting spirit to cause this result?
This was what Chu Xiu had seen in the past few days. Before he could figure out more, he was called out by Lin Yazi.
Looking at Chu Xiu, Lin Yazi smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Chu, if you continue to read, my Nine Phoenix Sword Sect might not exist anymore. During this period, my Nine Phoenix Sword Sect has been facing countless troubles."
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, what troubles?"
Lin Yazi said, "Actually, Brother Chu, you should know that there are a few sects in Fanglin County that are close to my Nine Phoenix Sword Sect. They coveted my Nine Phoenix Sword Sect's Heavenly Absolute Sword Technique, so they came to find trouble with me.
Originally, I had already agreed to share the Heavenly Absolute Sword Technique with them, but I didn't expect them to be so insatiable. They even wanted to kill my daughter, so I fell out with them.
During these past few days, they've been taking turns to suppress the businesses of my Nine Phoenix Sword Sect in Fanglin County, and we must think of a way to deal with them. Otherwise, if we allow them to nibble away at our businesses step by step, then our Nine Phoenix Sword Sect will never have a day of peace! "
Chu Xiu looked at Lin Yazi with a strange gaze. "Do we still need to think of a way to solve this problem?"
Hearing this, Lin Yazi felt even more strange. "Don't we need to think of a way?"
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "These sects covet the Heavenly Absolute Sword Technique in your hands. Coveting this kind of treasure is equivalent to stealing your wealth.
They almost killed your most beloved and only son and daughter. This is the revenge of killing a relative.
Now, they are still nibbling away at your Nine Phoenix Sword Sect step by step, wanting to destroy it. This is equivalent to exterminating your sect.
They are now ready to steal your wealth, kill your close relatives, and destroy your entire sect. They are just short of shitting on your head. Are you still going to think of a way?
Of course, we will fight them with our lives. What else do you need to think of? "
Lin Yazi was aggrieved by Chu Xiu's words, but he could only say, "Of course, I also know that we have to fight with our lives, but the problem is that even if we fight with our lives, we might not be able to win! It's fine if it's just one sect, but this time, there are three sects. How can we fight? "
Chu Xiu threw away the book in his hand and said indifferently, "We couldn't win in the past, but now that we have a guest elder like me, can we still not win?"
Lin Yazi rubbed his hands excitedly. He had been waiting for Chu Xiu to say this!
"Brother Chu, I will leave the Nine Phoenix Sword Sect to you from now on. How are we going to make a move? Do you need to lay out a plan first?"
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Is there a need to go through so much trouble to kill people? It's simple and direct. I'm killing people, there's no need to go through so much trouble. Sect Master Lin, you just need to bring people over and help me clean up the mess. "
Seeing Chu Xiu's indifferent appearance, Lin Yazi was a little dazed, but he didn't doubt it.
Because he didn't just hear confidence from Chu Xiu's indifferent tone, he even heard a wisp of dense killing intent.
That wasn't Chu Xiu's intentional killing intent, but it was released subconsciously.
Lin Yazi was still a little puzzled about this. Didn't this Chu Xiu always live in seclusion in the mountains? At most, he could kill some demonic beasts. How could he possibly nurture such a strong killing intent?
However, Lin Yazi was only puzzled for a short moment and didn't think too much about it.
According to Chu Xiu, his martial arts were Daoist, Buddhist, and Demonic. Among them, he was most proficient in Demonic Dao cultivation techniques.
Demonic Dao cultivation techniques were extremely gloomy, so they would condense a large amount of Blood Qi. It was normal for Chu Xiu to have this kind of killing intent.
Because Dugu Weiwei didn't exist, the Daluotian cultivators didn't discriminate against Demonic Dao cultivation techniques. They just felt a little annoyed with cultivators who cultivated Demonic Dao cultivation techniques.
After all, Demonic Dao cultivation techniques were extremely gloomy, so cultivators who cultivated Demonic Dao cultivation techniques were more bloodthirsty and eccentric.
However, it was only a slight annoyance, and it was far from the level of wanting to exterminate demons in the lower realms.
It could be said that Dugu Weiwei's existence had allowed the Demonic Dao to reach its peak, but it had also caused it to fall to the bottom.
