Enveloped by the Rootless Sacred Flame, Wei Shuya's expression was calm. Of course, his heart was calm as well. There was no trace of panic.
In the eyes of most of the Hidden Devil Clan's martial artists, Elder Wei was an old man who did things slowly and steadily. He had prestige, but no spirit.
In fact, they had forgotten how many major events Wei Shuya had experienced in his life.
The five Skyfiends of the Ninth Heaven Mountain had fought against the entire righteous path when the demonic path was at its lowest point.
That situation was practically certain death, but they still did it. Their courage and responsibility caused others to exclaim in admiration.
Later on, Wei Shuya single-handedly propped up the facade of the Hidden Devil Clan when it was about to fall apart.
Later on, he followed Chu Xiu and participated in several great battles between the righteous path and the demonic path. Every time, he was surrounded by danger. This time, it was just a small matter.
Ye Weikong also stared at Wei Shuya, who was wrapped in the Rootless Sacred Flame.
He couldn't see Wei Shuya's face clearly, but he could hear the confidence and fearlessness in Wei Shuya's voice.
He couldn't see through the person in front of him.
The strange Innate Fire enveloped him, making it impossible for Ye Weikong to determine the other party's true strength. Ye Weikong wondered which branch of the prime sovereign could control such a powerful Innate Fire.
Given his relationship with Meng Xinghe, Ye Weikong knew a lot about the branch of the prime sovereign, but he had never heard of such a person.
The two sides confronted each other for dozens of breaths. Qi Wuhen was so nervous that he didn't dare to speak.
He wanted Ye Weikong to kill Chu Xiu because he felt threatened by Chu Xiu.
Now that the prime sovereign behind Chu Xiu had unexpectedly broken the rules and protected him, Cold River City couldn't do anything.
A martial immortal was obviously a greater threat than the current Chu Xiu.
Cold River City could benefit from a fight to the death with the Imperial Sky Pavilion, but nothing could be gained from a fight with a prime sovereign.
After a while, Ye Weikong waved his hand and said indifferently, "Retreat."
Qi Wuhen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Ye Weikong say this word.
To fight a Martial Immortal-level expert to the death at a time like this was not a sensible thing to do.
Although Ye Weikong had always been domineering, he was more rational than anyone else.
After Ye Weikong left, Chu Xiu immediately ran back to the Prefectural Governor Manor. Xu Fengshan and the others shook their heads enviously behind him.
Gu Zun's successor had the backing of a Martial Immortal. Even the Lord of Cold River City would not dare to act recklessly.
In a secret chamber of the County Governor Manor, Wei Shuya's face was pale.
"Elder Wei, are you okay?" Chu Xiu quickly went up and asked.
Wei Shuya shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I didn't do anything. I just forcefully controlled the Rootless Sacred Flame.
Martial Immortal-level existences were truly frightening.
Previously, I was still thinking that if he were to attack, I would use the Rootless Sacred Flame to exchange a few blows with him to test his strength.
But now, it looks like it's fortunate that he didn't attack. If he did, I would've been exposed. "
Chu Xiu nodded. According to the information from the Royal Sky Pavilion, Ye Weikong's strength could be considered to be extremely strong even amongst Martial Immortals. At the very least, the Royal Sky Pavilion's Old Pavilion Master and Li Wuxiang were no match for him.
Wei Shuya sighed and said, "When I was in the lower realm, I wasn't young anymore. In addition to the fact that I had no hope of improving, I actually started to slack off in my cultivation.
Now that I'm in the Daluotian, I finally understand what it means by 'there's always someone stronger than you.'
The environment in the Daluotian has given me a chance to improve.
That Ye Weikong is a very thoughtful person. People like him usually think a lot and worry a lot. Therefore, he retreated this time. As long as you don't provoke the Cold River City in the short term, he probably won't attack you.
Let Yuan Ji finish the formation as soon as possible. It would be best if the Rootless Sacred Flame could stay in the Daluotian for a long period of time. That way, we would have a trump card.
In the future, we will be able to be more stable. This old man will also go into closed-door training. I want to see if I can pry into the wonders of the Martial Immortal realm before my lifespan runs out. "
Chu Xiu nodded and said, "With your strength, the chances are very high."
Wei Shuya laughed and said, "I don't even have that much confidence in myself."
"I'm speaking the truth."
Chu Xiu wasn't flattering Wei Shuya. He was speaking the truth.
In the Lower Realm, Wei Shuya's environment was not considered good. Putting aside his own martial arts, he had an obsession in his heart. Therefore, he had forcefully integrated the martial arts of his sworn brothers into his own martial arts. This had already wasted a lot of time. After all, not everyone was like Chu Xiu, where the more diverse the things they learned, the better.
Moreover, that period of time was also the most difficult time for the Hidden Demon Line. Wei Shuya kept a low profile and endured while developing the strength of the Hidden Demon Line. It could be said that the time when he was in the prime of his life was completely wasted.
Now, with the environment, resources and time, it wasn't difficult for Wei Shuya to step into the Martial Immortal realm.
Wei Shuya went into closed-door training. Shang Tianliang found a place to grow vegetables. Most of Chu Xiu's subordinates were also in closed-door training. After all, the environment in the Daluotian couldn't be wasted.
At the same time, Chu Xiu also set up a stronghold in the Southern Barbaric Land. Palaces were being built. After Master Yuan Ji completed the formation connecting to the Rootless Sacred Flame, he would go and set up the formation in the stronghold.
Those who could cultivate freely in the Daluotian were all Chu Xiu's trusted subordinates. They were the kind that he could completely trust.
After the stronghold and the formation were completed, Chu Xiu could also let some of the Kunlun Devil Cult's elites come to the Daluotian to cultivate.
Of course, he wouldn't tell them about the Daluotian. He would only tell them that it was a secret realm accidentally discovered by the Kunlun Devil Cult. It was filled with the essence of heaven and earth, specially for them to cultivate. Moreover, the range of their activities was restricted by the formation. They could only stay in the stronghold and couldn't go out.
After arranging everything, Chu Xiu wanted to go into closed-door training and try to find his own ultimate martial path like Wei Shuya said. However, Lu Sanjin came to his door.
As soon as he entered the door, Lu Sanjin shouted loudly, "Brother Chu, where is that senior? Let me see him quickly. It's so satisfying to be able to scare away that old guy Ye Weikong from Cold River City. "
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "Don't shout. My master has already left. But thanks to your reminder, I informed my master to come over."
Lu Sanjin snorted coldly and said, "Since the rise of Cold River City, our Imperial Sky Pavilion has been fighting with that old guy. We know him very well. That old guy isn't a person who cares about his face. Although he promised to let this matter go, he might come and make trouble for you. "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "It's normal. A person who cares about his face won't be able to reach this step."
As he was speaking, Mei Qinglian came over. She probably wanted to tell Chu Xiu about the situation of the establishment of the Southern Man's stronghold.
Since Mei Qinglian came here, all kinds of chores were taken care of by Mei Qinglian. She was used to it. In the Mortal World, it was also Mei Qinglian who was in charge of these things.
Seeing that there was an outsider here, Mei Qinglian just made a gesture to Chu Xiu and left directly.
Lu Sanjin looked at the charming Mei Qinglian with his mouth agape. He turned his head and said to Chu Xiu with a disdainful face, "Brother Chu, who said to abstain from sex?"
There was such a charming and charming great beauty hidden in the house. Abstain from sex? What the f * ck!
Chu Xiu didn't bother to explain Mei Qinglian's identity to him. He said directly, "Brother Lu, why did you come to me? As the Eastern Region Wayfarer, you are very busy. You don't have to come to my place for a stroll, do you? "
Lu Sanjin smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Chu, you have a sharp foresight. I can't hide anything from you. Actually, I'm here to ask for your help."
"What help?"
Lu Sanjin asked in return, "Don't you know about the recent events in Fanglin County?"
"What happened in Fanglin County?"
Lu Sanjin smiled bitterly. "Because of the idea you gave Jie Yingzong back then. Now, Jie Yingzong is out of control. The sects in Fanglin County rebelled and a few major powers emerged. Jie Yingzong can no longer suppress them. There are only a few prefectures in the Imperial Sky Pavilion in the entire Fanglin County now."
Chu Xiu raised an eyebrow and said, "Don't push the blame. This has nothing to do with me. When I told Jie Yingzong about this, I told him that it's okay to rear Gu, but in the end, he has to prevent the Gu from rebelling.
It's easiest to cultivate a major power in the midst of war. We have to nip it in the bud.
However, it's definitely not that simple.
Even if, according to what I said, a few major powers emerged in Fanglin County, Jie Yingzong is not an idiot. On the contrary, he's a very cautious person. There's no way he doesn't know that he's playing with fire.
Moreover, the Imperial Sky Pavilion has ruled Fanglin County for so many years. Even if a few major powers emerged, their prestige is still there.
They might play some tricks, or they might overpower the Prefectural Governor, but to openly rebel … Are they tired of living? "
Lu Sanjin shook his head and said, "I don't blame you, Brother Chu. I only blame Jie Yingzong for being careless.
However, Brother Chu, you're right. There's indeed an inside story behind this.
Previously, Frost River City was eyeing the Imperial Sky Pavilion covetously. After the old Pavilion Master made a trip to the Imperial Sky Pavilion, he suffered some injuries.
Initially, this news was only known by the Imperial Sky Pavilion. Who would have thought that the news would spread?
Moreover, someone must have instigated trouble in the dark, causing the powers in Fanglin County to rebel.
The example of Frost River City's rise was right in front of them. Everyone wanted to be the next Frost River City!
The Pavilion Master has a lot of matters to attend to now. The Heaven and Earth Mystic Illuminating realm experts in the sect can't be separated. Even if they could be separated, it would be useless for them to go.
Brother Chu, your strength is clear. Cangwu County has few powers in the martial world. The only trouble is the barbarians, but you've already settled it.
Therefore, the Pavilion Master wants me to ask Brother Chu to help solve the problem in Fanglin County. "
Chu Xiu rubbed his chin and thought for a while before he said, "That's not a problem. However, I have a request."
"What is it?"
"I want the Imperial Sky Pavilion to order that the entire Diluo Mountain Range and the area near the Southern Barbaric Lands be included in the territory of Cangwu County!"
