Since the matter with Eastern Qi had been settled, Chu Xiu did not want to stay here any longer. He chose to return to the Guanzhong torture room directly.
When Chu Xiu returned to Guanzhong, all the cultivators he met along the way, whether they were of a higher position or stronger than Chu Xiu, all nodded to Chu Xiu as a greeting.
As for those who were weaker than Chu Xiu in terms of strength and position, even if they were from the headquarters or from the Punishment Department, they all cupped their hands and greeted Chu Xiu respectfully.
The Guanzhong torture room was very realistic. In the past, Chu Xiu was not very famous in the whole of Guanzhong. He was not even as famous as Yuchi, Zhong Ping, and the other young cultivators of the Guanzhong torture room.
But now, after the God Weapon Convention, Chu Xiu had become sixth on the Longhu Leaderboard. It could be said that he had become famous overnight. The Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall was not closed off. When the God Weapon Convention had just ended, they had already found out about the situation through the news from the pugilistic world's media.
This time, Chu Xiu was representing the Guanzhong torture room to participate in the God Weapon Conference. So, the more attention Chu Xiu made in the God Weapon Conference, the more attention Guanzhong torture room would gain.
As for jealousy, when there was a gap between you and someone, they might be jealous. But when the gap between you and that person was large enough, the jealousy would no longer exist.
After all, it was a joke to say that you were jealous of a height that you could never reach in your lifetime.
Just like how no one in the pugilistic world would be jealous of Dugu Weiwei and Ning Xuanji, because they were already legendary existences.
Before Chu Xiu reached the entrance of the torture hall, he saw Chu Yuansheng coming over. He patted Chu Xiu's shoulder excitedly and said, "Brother Chu, you did a good job this time. You have greatly increased the reputation of the Guanzhong torture room!"
Strictly speaking, Chu Yuansheng was not a member of the Guanzhong torture room, but in fact, he was inseparable from the Guanzhong torture room.
So, when Chu Xiu helped the Guanzhong torture room at the God Weapon Conference, he was also helping him.
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Big brother, you're too polite. Since I'm already a member of the Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall, I naturally have to think about the reputation of the Guanzhong Disciplinary Hall.
Hearing this, Chu Yuansheng could not help but smile proudly. Speaking of which, he could be considered as the person who introduced Chu Xiu to the Guanzhong torture room.
Back then, when Chu Xiu saved him, he could have chosen to give Chu Xiu other things to repay him for saving his life. But at that time, he did not know why he only wanted to introduce Chu Xiu to the Guanzhong torture room. Now, it seemed that he had made a good move. He had roped in a powerful person for the Guanzhong torture room.
In the past, Chu Yuansheng had also recommended many people to join the Guanzhong torture room. But although those people were somewhat capable, they were generally mediocre. They were not as outstanding as Chu Xiu.
But now, Chu Xiu had made a great contribution to the Guanzhong torture room. As the person who recommended Chu Xiu, he was also proud.
"By the way, Brother Chu, did anything major happen in the Guanzhong torture room recently?" Chu Xiu asked.
After all, he had been away for a few months. He did not know if there were any problems with his subordinates.
Chu Yuansheng shook his head and said, "Nothing major, but there is something related to you."
"Oh? What is it? "Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and asked.
Chu Yuansheng smiled and said, "You crippled Swordmaster Fei Mo, an elite disciple of Swordking City's previous generation in Eastern Qi. This matter made Swordking City very angry. The Xingjian Hall's Hall Master, Qianji Sword Sect's Pei Zhanglin, personally came to Guanzhong's Punishment Hall half a month ago to seek an explanation from the Hall Master. He wanted to severely punish you and give Swordking City an explanation. I'm afraid those people from Swordking City are really used to being arrogant. Pei Zhanglin also doesn't know what he's doing. He dared to challenge the Hall Master as soon as he stepped into the Martial Dao Grandmaster Stage. In the end, he was forced back by the Hall Master with a single move before he could even draw his sword. "
Chu Xiu nodded. In fact, he had already expected this. He was the face of the Guanzhong torture room. He had made a name for himself on behalf of the Guanzhong torture room, but the internal department of the Guanzhong torture room punished him because of this matter. It would chill the hearts of many martial artists in the Guanzhong torture room and make the Guanzhong torture room lose face.
Of course, there was a limit to this. Chu Xiu only crippled Fei Mo, not Fang Qi Shao. Therefore, Swordking City only sent a Hall Master instead of the Sect Master.
If Chu Xiu was really crazy and caused big trouble, Guan Siyu wouldn't be able to handle it even if she wanted to.
"By the way, Big Brother, is Hall Master Guan in the main hall? I have to report to Hall Master Guan first when I come back this time. "Chu Xiu asked.
Chu Yuansheng said, "There are some things in the Guandong area that require Hall Master to personally deal with. He will probably be back tomorrow. You stay here for a day first and report to Hall Master tomorrow. Also, tell me some details about the Divine Weapon Conference. Now the news of the Divine Weapon Conference is spread by the Wind Sweeping Pavilion. Some of the details are not clear. It is definitely better for you to explain as the person involved. "
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Then I will have to trouble you today, Big Brother."
As Chu Xiu spoke, he directly followed Chu Yuansheng to his courtyard.
When Chu Xiu returned to the Guanzhong Torture Room, Shen Bai, who had his cultivation crippled, was also sent back to the Azure Water Sword Sect.
When Shen Bai was crippled by Chu Xiu, he was immediately treated by the Mirror Lake Manor's martial artists. Afterwards, the Mirror Lake Manor's martial artists all ran away. It wasn't like Shen Bai was left alone. A few rogue martial artists brought Shen Bai away and escorted him all the way back to the Azure Water Sword Sect.
Of course, these rogue martial artists didn't really have good intentions. They just wanted to use this matter to ask for some benefits from the Azure Water Sword Sect.
Right now, in the Azure Water Sword Sect's main hall, the unconscious Shen Bai was lying on a stretcher and was placed in the middle of the entire main hall.
Liu Gongyuan looked at Shen Bai who had an extremely low qi presence. It was as if Shen Bai had suddenly aged by more than ten years.
There were still Dou Guangchen and a few other Azure Water Sword Sect core disciples around, and the atmosphere was already oppressive to the extreme.
The few rogue martial artists that escorted Shen Bai were somewhat regretful at this moment.
From the looks of it, what if the Azure Water Sword Sect killed all of them to vent their anger?
Just as these few people were about to die from fear, Liu Gongyuan sighed and waved his hand, "Many thanks for sending my disciple back. You may leave. Someone will bring you to collect some elixirs as a thank you gift."
The few rogue martial artists then let out a long breath and quickly said, "Many thanks, Senior Liu. This is what we should do."
With that, they hurriedly retreated out of the room.
After they left, Dou Guangchen spoke with bloodshot eyes, "Chu Xiu deserves to be killed! Master, Little Junior Brother has been crippled. We must find that Chu Xiu to seek justice for this matter! "
Shen Bai was their Azure Water Sword Sect's future hope. Dou Guangchen and the others were more or less envious and jealous of Shen Bai, but they knew that their potential was already at the limit. In the future, only Shen Bai would be able to lead the Azure Water Sword Sect to rise.
Without the skin, where would the hair attach? Only with Shen Bai's rise, the Azure Water Sword Sect could rise, and they would still be disciples of the Seven Sects and Eight Schools.
Now that Shen Bai was crippled, the Azure Water Sword Sect's hope of rising was forcefully crushed by Chu Xiu. Once Liu Gongyuan died, their Azure Water Sword Sect would be forcefully kicked out of the Seven Sects and Eight Schools!
Liu Gongyuan closed his eyes and revealed a trace of grief on his aged face. His wrinkles seemed to have deepened.
"Chu Xiu deserves to be killed, but how do we kill him? He is our enemy's hero.
To us, Chu Xiu is an enemy that must be killed. But to the Guanzhong Torture Room, Chu Xiu is a hero that helped them become famous.
Even if we personally go to the Guanzhong Torture Room, do you think the Guanzhong Torture Room will hand him over? I am old and can no longer use the Sinking River Sword. Even if I can use this sword, I will not be able to defeat Guan Siyu's Divine Ability, Nine Transformations.
Of course, if I insist on killing Chu Xiu, it is not difficult. I might be old, but I can still pick up a sword. At most, I will be shameless and guard the Guanzhong Torture Room. Chu Xiu cannot possibly stay in the Guanzhong for his entire life.
But do you know what the consequences are? The consequences are that I am bullying the weak. The Azure Water Sword Sect's reputation will be ruined, and people will say that the Azure Water Sword Sect is a sore loser.
Even if I don't care about my reputation and forcefully kill Chu Xiu, it will incur the wrath of the Guanzhong Torture Room. Even if it is for their own reputation, the Guanzhong Torture Room will not remain silent.
When I'm here, I can protect all of you by risking my life. But what if I'm dead? You will be facing the endless suppression of the Guanzhong Torture Room. When that happens, the Azure Water Sword Sect will not just be kicked out of the seven sects and eight factions, it will be exterminated! "
Dou Guangchen and the others' eyes were red and were silent.
They all knew that it wasn't that Liu Gongyuan didn't want to take revenge for Shen Bai. He wanted to kill Chu Xiu more than anyone else.
Shen Bai was a disciple that he had raised since he was young. In order to nurture Shen Bai, Liu Gongyuan put in all his effort and treated Shen Bai as his own son.
But now, Liu Gongyuan chose to endure, not because he was afraid, but because he was thinking for them. He was afraid that after he died, they would be retaliated by the Guanzhong Torture Room.
Liu Gongyuan squatted down and took out the spirit medicine to feed Shen Bai. He even personally used his qi to comb through the medicinal effects.
He closed his eyes and sighed, "Shen Bai was crippled, and it was my fault. Back then, I kept Chu Xiu alive because I wanted to use him as a whetstone for Shen Bai. I wanted Shen Bai to kill this enemy and achieve success. Who would have thought that Chu Xiu would actually grow so terrifyingly? He didn't become Shen Bai's whetstone, but Shen Bai became his whetstone. I was still too anxious. "
Dou Guangchen hurriedly said, "Master, don't say that. That Chu Xiu was too ruthless. Normally, when disciples from large sects fight, they would hold back. Who would have thought that Chu Xiu would disregard the rules and cripple his junior apprentice brother?"
Liu Gongyuan waved his hand and said, "Wrong is wrong. There is no need to explain anymore. Chu Xiu and Shen Bai have a blood feud. Whether it was to cripple or kill, he was decisive. If he held back, then he would be indecisive. Alright, you guys can leave first. "
After hearing Liu Gongyuan's words, Dou Guangchen and the others had no choice but to leave.
