The Old Pavilion Master's words stunned Chu Xiu.
The weapon he was talking about should be Listen to Spring Rain, but it was actually damaged?
That was a supreme Demonic Armament created by the heavens and the earth, and it had been nourished by Dugu Weiwo's own power for a very long time. It was definitely stronger than the broken formation in Chu Xiu's hands. Yet, it had actually been damaged. From this, one could well imagine how intense that battle had been.
However, at this time, Chu Xiu also understood the Old Pavilion Master's meaning. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Old Pavilion Master wants me to go to South China?"
Lu Sanjin wanted to say something but was stopped by the Old Pavilion Master with a wave of his hand.
He looked at Chu Xiu and said directly, "Yes, that's what I mean.
In fact, if you're an ordinary guest, His Excellency Emperor Sky can directly order you to go.
However, you're Sanjin's good friend and Gu Zun's successor. I don't want to deceive you, so I'm telling you this.
For the Emperor Sky Pavilion, the situation in South China is a bit tricky, and we can't find anyone to deal with it for the time being. Your strength and identity can.
However, although it's tricky, I didn't lie to you when I told you that that person's weapon had appeared in the hands of those barbarians.
Moreover, you're going to the Southern Barbaric Land as my Emperor Sky Pavilion's guest, so the benefits that you deserve will not be reduced. "
Chu Xiu didn't ask what was so troublesome about the southern barbaric land. He merely rubbed his chin and asked, "Although the Emperor Sky Pavilion doesn't dominate the eastern region, it's still a top-notch sect in the eastern region. Is it lacking people now?"
The Old Pavilion Master smiled bitterly. "Lacking, we've always been lacking.
You're an Imperial Sky Pavilion guest, and you're representing the Emperor Sky Pavilion to participate in the martial arts exhibition. You should understand the gap between our Emperor Sky Pavilion and High Heaven Sect.
In the past few hundred years, our Emperor Sky Pavilion has always been in a state of shortage. Even among the younger generation, Sanjin is the only capable one.
Ten thousand years ago, the territory controlled by the Emperor Sky Pavilion was about this big. Even now, it's still this big, but its power has declined. Of course, we don't have enough people.
Since you appeared in Fanglin County, you should have seen Jie Yingzong.
That kid was also promoted by me when I was still in power. Although he is a little overly cautious, he has both strength and ability.
He kept complaining to me and wanted to be transferred back to the Imperial Heaven Pavilion. He said that it was enough to leave a True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm martial artist in Fanglin County.
His thinking was still too simple. What did Fanglinjun rely on to be so peaceful? He relied on his Heaven and Earth Mystic Enlightening cultivation base and the Imperial Sky Pavilion's influence.
The sky was high and the emperor was far away. Strength would always be ranked before prestige.
If we really send a martial artist of the True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm, he might be easily taken over by those sects. "
Beside him, Lu Sanjin's expression was a little strange.
Previously, Fanglin Province was peaceful. However, ever since Chu Xiu's suggestion to Jie Yingzong, it might not be peaceful anymore.
Chu Xiu pondered for a moment and nodded. "No problem. I'll go to the southern barbaric lands."
The Old Pavilion Master waved his hand and said resolutely, "Alright then. You'll be the County Governor of Cangwu County, which is near the southern barbaric lands. I'll get Li Wuxiang to inform all the martial artists of the Imperial Sky Pavilion after that."
Chu Xiu nodded. Just as he was about to leave, he thought of something and asked, "What about the previous County Governor of Cangwu County? If I were to take over his position and offend someone, it would be an undeserved calamity. "
The Old Pavilion Master looked deeply at Chu Xiu and said, "You don't have to worry about that. The previous County Governor of Cangwu County is already dead."
Chu Xiu choked for a moment but did not say much. He left the small courtyard with Lu Sanjin.
Chu Xiu did not care about the rewards that the Imperial Sky Pavilion had promised him. He did not lack these things now.
The thing that really attracted Chu Xiu was Ting Chunyu.
Although Chu Xiu already had the Formation Breaking Technique that came from the same source as Ting Chunyu, if Ting Chunyu could fuse with the Formation Breaking Technique, it would improve the trump card in Chu Xiu's hands.
Seeing the backs of Chu Xiu and Lu Sanjin walking out, the Old Pavilion Master smiled bitterly.
Since when did the Imperial Sky Pavilion fall to the point of scheming against a young man?
However, he was helpless because the Imperial Sky Pavilion really had no one else they could use.
Chu Xiu had the strength to defeat Xuanyuan Wushuang, which proved that he had the strength comparable to an expert in the Heaven and Earth Profound Enlightenment Realm.
Moreover, he was Gu Zun's successor. Although some big sects might not pay much attention to this identity, it also represented Chu Xiu's background. No matter what, Gu Zun's successor always had an expert in the Martial Immortal Realm as his backer.
Therefore, it was actually suitable to send Chu Xiu.
The Old Pavilion Master had already thought of this idea after Lu Sanjin told him that Chu Xiu wanted to see him yesterday to inquire about Dugu Weiwei.
That was why he spoke to Chu Xiu so quickly, as if he had already prepared a draft.
However, he did not know that the things he mentioned were exactly what Chu Xiu needed.
After walking out of the small courtyard, Lu Sanjin said to Chu Xiu apologetically, "Brother Chu, I'm sorry. I didn't know the Old Pavilion Master would say this to you."
Although he, Lu Sanjin, was not a straightforward person, he would not do such a thing to scheme against his own people.
Although he and Chu Xiu were not best friends, at least they were on the same side. It was somewhat inappropriate to do this.
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "There's no need to do this. The Old Pavilion Master's idea is good. If we take back that person's weapon, we will be able to answer to the Ancestral Master.
I agreed to this matter, and it has nothing to do with Brother Lu or the Old Pavilion Master.
To put it bluntly, if I don't want to, even the Imperial Sky Pavilion can't force me. "
Lu Sanjin nodded. Chu Xiu was right.
Although he was a Foreign Elder, he was still a successor of Primordial Venerate.
The Imperial Sky Pavilion could use him, but they could not make use of him. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to offending a Martial Immortal.
"By the way, what's so tricky about Nanman? It seems that you don't recommend me to go."
Lu Sanjin smiled bitterly. This elder brother was really open-minded. He only started to ask after agreeing to it.
"It's hard to explain in a short time. I'll take you to a place first."
As he spoke, Lu Sanjin pulled Chu Xiu to a side hall in the Imperial Sky Pavilion. There was a huge sand table in the hall. The area built on it was the territory controlled by the Imperial Sky Pavilion, the entire eastern region, and the places connected to it.
Lu Sanjin said, "This was built when the Imperial Sky Pavilion first entered the Daluotian territory. Every time we conquer a place, we start to build a sand table and restore the terrain and so on here.
The Cangwu County that you're going to is located at the border between the eastern and southern regions. It's also the southernmost part of the Diluo Mountain Range in the eastern region.
It's filled with mountains and dense forests, and it has the most ferocious beasts. There are also many barbarian tribes there.
By the way, you should know about the barbarian tribes, right? "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Lu Sanjin smacked his head and said, "You bunch of Primeval Venerables are really impressive. You only know how to cultivate all day long. No wonder your cultivation base is so strong."
It was hard to tell if he was mocking or praising. Then, he explained to Chu Xiu, "Speaking of these barbarians, we're the ones who have let them down.
You can say that they're the indigenous people of the Daluotian territory.
Many cultivators who have never been to the southern region or the depths of the Diluo Mountain Range have always thought that there were no Daluotian people in the beginning. Actually, they're wrong.
Humans are the most intelligent of all creatures. There are so many ferocious beasts in the Daluotian territory. Naturally, there are also humans.
However, after we entered the Daluotian territory, not only did we start killing ferocious beasts, but we also killed many of these barbarians. Our living space was compressed to the extreme. It's a little unethical to do such a thing, so we didn't publicize it. If you know about it, you know about it. If you don't know about it, it's better if you don't. "
Lu Sanjin scratched his head. He still had a sense of shame. After all, what his ancestors had done in the past was no different from bandits.
Lu Sanjin pointed at the barbarian territory and said, "Now, most of the barbarians live in the southern region, as well as in the undeveloped depths of the Diluo Mountain Range. Your Cangwu County is right next to that place."
At this time, Chu Xiu suddenly said, "Why not kill all of these barbarians?"
Lu Sanjin laughed bitterly and said, "There are many reasons. One of them is that these barbarians are not powerless to fight back. They still have some strength.
Their martial arts are very strange. To be more accurate, they shouldn't be called martial arts. They're all kinds of witchcraft and secret techniques. They're very difficult to deal with.
If we were to forcefully exterminate them, even if all the Daluotian forces join forces, they would inevitably suffer some losses.
Also, the Daluotian territory is vast. Even after tens of thousands of years of development, this territory is enough for us to use. There's no need to force these barbarians into desperation.
The last reason is that some sects are hypocritically saying that killing too much is harmful to the harmony of the heavens. They're against this kind of killing. "
At this point, Lu Sanjin said disdainfully, "The ones who say the most are the monks from the Western Region.
When they first came to the Daluotian territory, they killed many barbarians as well. In fact, they were the ones who killed the most.
Because those barbarians worshiped all kinds of messy gods, they were condemned as heretics by the monks and exterminated immediately.
Just because they found an excuse to kill, they think they're merciful? Do they think they're saints? I can't stand this. "
Lu Sanjin seemed to have a strong opinion of the monks from the Western Region. After cursing them for a while, he said to Chu Xiu, "Therefore, the most troublesome thing for the Cangwu County Governor is to deal with these barbarians.
They don't care if you're from the Imperial Sky Pavilion or anyone else. In their eyes, you're a foreign race that deserves to be killed. It's impossible for you to be as carefree as Jie Yingzong.
Another troublesome thing about Cangwu County is that it's next to Cold River City.
Cold River City has just risen. As a force that doesn't have an ancient legacy, Cold River City's territory is the smallest. They're also the most aggressive. It's not the first time they've had conflicts with the Imperial Sky Pavilion.
The previous County Governor died during the southern barbarians' riot. He was plotted against badly.
However, to be honest, although those one-track minded barbarians have strange methods, they shouldn't be able to kill the County Governor who used to be an elder in the Imperial Sky Pavilion.
Therefore, the Imperial Sky Pavilion suspects that Cold River City was behind that incident.
However, although we suspect it, we don't have any evidence. "
