Not only did the martial artists from the major sects and aristocratic families have a much higher starting line than those who were born in the wilderness, they also had access to unimaginable resources in the future.
This was how important one's background was, and how unfair the heavens were. But this was the way of the world, and no one could do anything about it.
Chu Xiu looked at Mo Tianlin and said, "Brother Mo, are you envious of those people?"
Mo Tianlin smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I'm envious. It would be a lie to say that I'm not envious. Although my Mo family is one of the nine great aristocratic families, our ranking is neither high nor low. We know our own strength very well.
For example, that 'Little Celestial Master' Zhang Chengzhen was born with everything he had. The position of the next Celestial Master is destined to be his. Also, the tenth place in the Famous Sword Spectrum, one of the three divine weapons of Mount Longhu, the Evil Slaying Sword, will also be wielded by Zhang Chengzhen in the future.
But for people like us, we have to scheme against each other within our families and fight with people in the Jianghu to obtain all of this. But for others, it's so easy. "
Chu Xiu poured a cup of wine for Mo Tianlin and said lightly, "Actually, Brother Mo, you don't have to compare yourself with people like Zhang Chengzhen. As a disciple of the Mo family, Brother Mo already has a lot. At the very least, you have the qualifications to fight with these heroes in the Jianghu. What you don't know is that for most low-level martial artists, staying alive is already doing their best."
Chu Xiu's words made Mo Tianlin's whole body tremble. Doing their best to stay alive was indeed not something someone with his background could imagine.
Mo Tianlin smiled freely and shook his head. "Listening to Brother Chu's words, it seems like I'm being unreasonable. Compared to the majority of martial artists who cultivate alone, martial artists like me who come from sects and aristocratic families are indeed much better."
Just as Mo Tianlin was chatting with Chu Xiu, a burst of exclamations suddenly came from the surrounding boats.
Chu Xiu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a person walking over from the lake.
That person was a handsome young man in his twenties. He wore a gray warrior suit, and his long black hair hung loosely behind him. He didn't wear a crown, and looked free and unrestrained.
Moreover, he carried a long sword wrapped in linen on his back without a scabbard, which looked a little strange.
At this moment, the young man was walking on the water. Every time his feet landed on the water, there would be an explosion of astral energy. It was as if a physical body had exploded, causing his body to soar into the air. Only then could he run on the water.
Walking on water sounded simple, and any martial artist who had reached the Physical Invulnerability Realm should be able to do it. However, in reality, it was rare to find someone who had reached the Oneness of Heaven and Man realm, let alone a Physical Invulnerability Expert.
Continuously exploding the Stellar Energy under one's feet to achieve the goal of supporting oneself, this required not only the cultivation of the martial artist's own inner strength, but also the control of the Stellar Energy.
Seeing this person coming, the corner of Mo Tianlin's mouth immediately revealed a smile. "Another acquaintance."
As he spoke, the young man had already arrived in front of Chu Xiu's boat. With one step, he came directly in front of Chu Xiu and Mo Tianlin.
"Mo Tianlin, I haven't seen you for more than a year, but you're still the same."
Mo Tianlin smiled. Just as he was about to say some polite words, he heard the young man continue. "Your strength still hasn't improved at all."
The greeting he was about to say was immediately swallowed back by Mo Tianlin. He coldly snorted. "Xie Xiao Lou, your mouth is still so smelly."
After rebuking him, Mo Tianlin then introduced him to Chu Xiu. "This is' Hundred Li Flying Feather 'Xie Xiao Lou, from West Chu's World Alliance."
Chu Xiu looked at him. This person was also an outstanding talent on the Longhu List. His ranking was even higher than Mo Tianlin's, twelfth.
Moreover, his background was also extraordinary. He came from the World Alliance of the Six Gangs. His master was the famous World Alliance's leader, 'Thousand Li of Mountains and Rivers' Chenqing Di.
That person was an outstanding talent. Like Nie Renlong from the morgue, he also came from the wilderness. If Nie Renlong relied on his own methods to slowly build up the foundation of the morgue, then Chenqing Di used his own pair of iron fists to build up the World Alliance's Thousand Li of Mountains and Rivers!
Chu Xiu cupped his hands and said, "So it's brother Xie, I've heard a lot about you."
Mo Tianlin then pointed at Chu Xiu and said, "This is brother Chu Xiu. In the past, he was the gold medal assassin 'Blood Demon' of the Blue Dragon Society. Now, he is the Guanxi Patrol Inspector of the Guanzhong Torture Room. He is also ranked in the top twenty of the Longhu List."
Although Chu Xiu was ranked in the top twenty of the Longhu List, his fame was mostly in the Northern Yan East Yan region. In the entire Jianghu, he wasn't very famous. Even if most people didn't look at the Longhu List, they wouldn't even remember Chu Xiu's name. Therefore, Mo Tianlin introduced him in detail, afraid that Xie Xiao Lou wouldn't know Chu Xiu.
However, after hearing Chu Xiu's name, Xie Xiao Lou suddenly said: "You're that Chu Xiu who beat up that brat Lin Kaiyun to the point where not a single part of his body is left unscathed? Also, 'Little Marquis' Lu Fengxian, are you your friend? "
Chu Xiu shrugged and said, "I don't know if Lin Kaiyun suffered a blow or not, but when he caused trouble in the Guanzhong Torture Room, I fought with him and defeated him. I don't know what happened to him after he returned to Swordking City. Lu Fengxian is indeed this one's friend. Brother Xie, did you meet him in the West Chu Land? I wonder how brother Lu is doing? "
On the side, Mo Tianlin looked at Chu Xiu, blinked, and said, "Brother Chu, it seems like you've hidden yourself quite well. Even Wind Sweeping Pavilion's intelligence doesn't have this information."
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said, "If I announced it to the world just because I defeated Lin Kaiyun, wouldn't Swordking City's people come after me?"
Xie Xiao Lou's cold face pulled out a smile and said, "Even if you don't announce it, Swordking City's people will still hate you in their hearts. I've long been unhappy with that kid Lin Kaiyun. I was waiting for him to come out of seclusion to teach him a lesson. I didn't expect that when I ran into Swordking City's people, I heard that Lin Kaiyun was defeated by you and was unable to recover. He's been muddling around in Swordking City all day and is almost crippled. "
Chu Xiu rubbed his nose. If this was the case, then Chu Xiu was really wronged this time.
Last time in the Guanzhong torture room, Chu Xiu really didn't have any killing intent towards Lin Kaiyun. He just wanted to teach him a lesson. Lin Kaiyun's injuries weren't fatal.
But who would have thought that Lin Kaiyun's state of mind would be so poor? He suffered such a small blow and almost died. This was equivalent to Chu Xiu crippling one of Swordking City's younger generation's geniuses. This enmity wasn't small. Chu Xiu hadn't expected this.
Xie Xiao Lou said to Chu Xiu, "Actually, I already knew about you before this matter. I got to know Lu Fengxian more than a year ago. He's also an outstanding talent. If it wasn't for him not wanting to cause trouble, with Brother Lu's strength, he would definitely be ranked on the Dragon and Tiger List.
Even my master wanted to recruit Brother Lu after meeting him. Unfortunately, Brother Lu refused and went back to roaming the world.
At that time, Brother Lu mentioned Brother Chu to me. For Brother Lu to praise you so much, you're definitely not an ordinary person. "
When talking about Lu Fengxian, Xie Xiao Lou's face, which didn't have much expression, revealed a look of admiration. Obviously, he admired Lu Fengxian very much.
This was very normal in Chu Xiu's eyes. He understood Lu Fengxian's character. He could make many friends, but at the same time, he was also the easiest to be used by others.
And in terms of strength, Lu Fengxian didn't need to be mentioned. His future achievements could already explain everything.
At this time, Mo Tianlin suddenly asked Xie Xiao Lou, "Right, why did you come to the God Weapon Convention this time? Not to mention the fact that you might not be able to obtain the God Weapon, even if you did obtain the God Weapon, that God Weapon would be a blade. But are you willing to give up the Floating Feather Blade that you've been cultivating since you were a child and that you've already cultivated it to the point of cultivating your life and death? "
Xie Xiao Lou lightly said, "I'm just here to join in the fun. After being in closed door cultivation in West Chu for so long, it's so boring that it's about to rust. I came out to relax and see if there's anyone I don't like that I can teach a lesson to."
Hearing this, Chu Xiu and Mo Tianlin were a bit speechless. This reason was a bit too strong.
Moreover, Chu Xiu had a very interesting discovery. Xie Xiao Lou and Mo Tianlin had completely different personalities, but the two of them could become good friends. This was very interesting.
Mo Tianlin's personality was cool and indifferent. He also had the courtesy and self-restraint of someone from a large family. He had a sense of propriety when doing things.
Although you wouldn't like this kind of person at first sight, at least you wouldn't hate them.
On the other hand, Xie Xiao Lou was the opposite. He was cold and indifferent, his words were stinky and hard, and his temper was a bit strange.
For people he liked, like Lu Fengxian, even if the other party's background and ranking on the Dragon and Tiger List couldn't compare to his, he would still admire them.
On the other hand, if it was someone he disliked, like Lin Kaiyun, even if Chu Xiu didn't make a move against Lin Kaiyun, Xie Xiao Lou was prepared to teach the other party a lesson.
For two people with this kind of personality to become good friends, other than fate, there was also the fact that their families were far apart.
In the world of martial arts, people couldn't help themselves. Sometimes you couldn't even choose your friends or lovers.
The Shangyang Mo Family was in Eastern Qi and the Heaven Alliance was in West Chu. They were separated by tens of thousands of miles. Not to mention conflict, they didn't even have any business dealings. That's why Xie Xiao Lou and Mo Tianlin didn't have any interest in each other.
"That's right, brother Chu, where are you planning to go in a bit?" Mo Tianlin asked.
Chu Xiu pointed at the Water Cloud Temple and said, "I heard that the Water Cloud Temple's daoist priest Xuan Cheng is very skilled. I'm going to listen to his teachings."
Mo Tianlin muttered in confusion, "Water Cloud Temple's daoist priest Xuan Cheng? I've never heard of any daoist masters nearby? "
Just as he said this, Mo Tianlin suddenly remembered something his father seemed to have told him, so Mo Tianlin quickly changed his mind and said, "Alright, let's go to the Water Cloud Temple for a stroll. We can take a break there."
