In fact, everyone had already speculated that Chu Xiu had been defeated by Fang Sha.
After all, Chu Xiu had the battle record of killing a Martial Dao master. What if he still had some trump cards up his sleeves?
However, no one had expected that Chu Xiu would defeat Fang Sha as easily as crushing dry weeds. How powerful was Chu Xiu?
Chu Xiu's Heavenly Demon Dance was still stuck to Fang Sha's neck. The cold aura made Fang Sha feel the cruelty of reality. He wanted to say something, but he could not say it in the end.
Fang Sha was actually a little unconvinced. Even he had never imagined that he would lose in such a baffling manner.
He still had a trump card that he had not used, but he had lost in the end. What was going on?
However, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he was a Martial Dao master and a senior of the Guanzhong Torture Room. If he were to go back on his word and say that he wanted to compete again, would he still have any face left?
Fang Sha did not know how he had lost, but Guan Siyu and Mei Qinglian understood. Both of them looked at Chu Xiu with a strange look in their eyes.
Chu Xiu's control over the rhythm of the battle was simply terrifying!
Chu Xiu had been able to win this battle not only because of his powerful strength, but also because of the strangeness of his Blood Transformation Saber and the power of his final saber move. Instead, it was because of Chu Xiu's control over the rhythm of the battle.
From the beginning, Fang Sha had fallen into Chu Xiu's rhythm. Every step he took was completely within Chu Xiu's expectations. When Chu Xiu finally slashed with his saber, the outcome was already clear.
Perhaps this was not a battle of life and death, and Fang Sha had not taken out his trump card in a battle of life and death. However, at the same time, Chu Xiu also had trump cards that he had not used. In another battle, Chu Xiu could also change his tactics on the spot, and the result was unpredictable.
This kind of control of the rhythm of the battle was not something that could be taught. It could only be said that Chu Xiu was gifted and extremely sensitive to the situation of the battle. If it were someone else, they would not be able to think of this in such a fierce battle. He did not dare to think of these messy things.
Fang Sha pushed aside Chu Xiu's Heavenly Demon Dance with resentment and turned to leave.
No matter what the reason was, he had already lost. It was impossible to fight again. In any case, he had lost a lot of face this time.
Guan Siyu stood up and said in a deep voice, "We've fought, and we've competed. This matter is settled. When Xiaofantian opens, An Liunian, Chu Xiu, and I will enter."
The outcome was set. Xiao Yi and Chu Simo were currently shocked by Chu Xiu's strength, while Yin Botong left secretly.
In the past, Yin Botong had dared to provoke Chu Xiu because he relied on his experience in the Guanzhong Torture Room and his relationship with Fang Sha.
In the end, even a Martial Dao master like Fang Sha had lost to Chu Xiu. This made Yin Botong simply unable to believe it. At the same time, a sense of danger arose in his heart.
After this, if Chu Xiu wanted to take revenge on him, what could he use to resist?
However, Yin Botong had underestimated Chu Xiu. Right now, Chu Xiu's heart was on Xiaofantian. How could he still have the leisure to take revenge on him?
After the matter was over, Guan Siyu looked for An Liunian and Chu Xiu and gave each of them a key to Xiaofantian.
An Liunian left with a dark expression after receiving the key, but Guan Siyu did not mind.
After An Liunian left, Chu Xiu looked at his back and said in a deep voice, "Hall Master, the Punishment Bureau is the trump card of the Guanzhong Torture Room. Most of the Punishment Hall's resources are provided to the Punishment Bureau, but the Great Leader doesn't even have the slightest bit of respect for you. This is a little too much. In my opinion, the problem of the Guanzhong Torture Room isn't external, but internal. "
Guan Siyu sighed and said, "Of course I know that, but the Guanzhong Torture Room can't be messed up.
An Liunian is from the same generation as Hall Master Chu Kuangge. He has a group of trusted subordinates in the Punishment Bureau, and he has considerable prestige.
Most importantly, he is one of the trump cards of the Guanzhong Torture Room. If something happens to me or I'm not in the Punishment Hall, An Liunian will be the only one who can handle things on his own.
You don't have to take this matter to heart. An Liunian isn't targeting you. When Xiaofantian opens, you just have to go in. "
After hearing Guan Siyu's words, Chu Xiu did not continue to sow discord. He merely bowed and turned to leave.
Some things only needed to be said once. Saying it too many times would incur disgust.
After Chu Xiu left Guan Siyu's place, he was secretly called over by Mei Qinglian.
In the Punishment Hall's backyard, Mei Qinglian looked at Chu Xiu with a frown and said, "You were a little rash today. Even if you didn't challenge Fang Sha, I was confident that I could get you the right to enter Xiaofantian. In the end, you provoked him. Once you lose, there's no turning back. "
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "It's precisely because I have the confidence to win that I challenged him. Isn't it better to convince some people?
Moreover, I'm not being rash. It's just that sometimes, I have to bear with it, but I can't lose my drive.
Saintess, with all due respect, the Hidden Devil Lineage has lost some of its drive. It's fine for sects like the Phaseless Demon Sect that are still active in the pugilistic world. However, some people have been hiding in the dark for a long time and think that hiding is their main goal. They have forgotten why they have to hide. "
Mei Qinglian's expression immediately turned cold. She frowned and a cold aura slowly spread out. She said coldly, "Are you saying that I've lost my drive?"
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "Honest advice is unpleasant to the ear. Saintess, please don't take it personally. This is just a suggestion. If Saintess doesn't want to hear it, I'll take it back."
Chu Xiu was not deliberately provoking Mei Qinglian. He was indeed speaking the truth.
If the Hidden Devil Lineage could only hide in the dark for the rest of their lives, then the Hidden Devil Lineage would really be finished.
Moreover, Chu Xiu was not being honest when he said that in front of Mei Qinglian. Chu Xiu felt that it was time for him to change his position.
Previously, Chu Xiu needed Mei Qinglian's help to gain a foothold in the Guanzhong Torture Room. He also needed the secret support of the Hidden Devil Lineage.
Now that Chu Xiu had the strength to face a Martial Dao Grandmaster head-on, although he would not burn the bridge after crossing the river, he should at least change his treatment.
Seeing Chu Xiu's indifferent expression, Mei Qinglian suddenly understood something.
She retracted the aura around her and snorted, "If one is strong enough, no one would be willing to stay in the dark and be a local mouse.
You saw how An Liunian was today. I wanted to kill him on the spot, but didn't I have to endure it for the time being?
Chu Xiu, since you're a member of the Hidden Devil Lineage, then you should know the situation of the Hidden Devil Lineage.
What the Hidden Devil Lineage lacks is not strength, but opportunity. "
If it was the previous Chu Xiu, if Chu Xiu dared to speak to Mei Qinglian in such a tone, Mei Qinglian would definitely let him know what was called the rules.
However, when she thought of the might Chu Xiu displayed when he defeated Fang Sha, the current Chu Xiu was enough for Mei Qinglian to speak to him as an equal and explain things to him calmly.
People from the Devil Lineage were much more realistic than those from the Righteous Lineage. As long as one had the strength, everything would be fine.
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "Heroes make the situation, and the situation makes the hero. The opportunity might come at any time."
After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Mei Qinglian, Chu Xiu directly returned to the Guanxi Land to wait for news.
Before entering the Xiaofan Heaven, Chu Xiu had to at least adjust his condition to the peak.
Looking at Chu Xiu's departing figure, Mei Qinglian's eyes revealed a hint of incomprehension.
After a while, Mei Qinglian murmured softly, "Lu Jin, what kind of guy did you bring into the Hidden Devil Lineage?"
Originally, Mei Qinglian thought that she could see through Chu Xiu. It was only now that Mei Qinglian realized that she had never seen through Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu was definitely the kind of person who was unwilling to submit to others.
Chu Xiu's ambition was written on his face and seeped into his bones!
When Mei Qinglian first came into contact with Chu Xiu, Chu Xiu was still very obedient at that time. He was even considered by Mei Qinglian and the Phaseless Devil Sect to be someone worthy of training.
But she did not know when Chu Xiu had grown to such a realm. He was even strong enough to talk to her as an equal, and he even dared to talk to her as an equal.
If this kind of thing happened in some famous righteous sects, it would be disrespectful and presumptuous. However, in the Devil Lineage, whether it was the Bright Devil Lineage or the Hidden Devil Lineage, the first thing that everyone valued was strength. Almost no one would care about those false reputations.
Therefore, regarding Chu Xiu's attitude just now, Mei Qinglian was not too angry, because these were all what Chu Xiu deserved.
However, this Chu Xiu's change was so fast that it was enough to prove his deep scheming. Even now, Mei Qinglian could not understand what Chu Xiu was thinking. Such a person was definitely not easy to deal with. Whether Chu Xiu's existence was good or bad for the Hidden Devil Lineage, Mei Qinglian did not know.
Shaking her head, Mei Qinglian did not think about these messy things for the time being.
The Hidden Devil Lineage was originally a mix of good and bad people. To put it bluntly, there were not many people in the Hidden Devil Lineage who were easy to deal with. Now that there was an ambitious Chu Xiu, it did not seem to be a big deal.
Moreover, her Hidden Devil Lineage had already declined to the extent that she was the only one left, so Mei Qinglian could not be bothered to care about these things.
Chu Xiu was brought into the Hidden Devil Lineage by Lu Jin. In the future, if anything happened, the Phaseless Devil Sect would be the one to shoulder it.
At this time, Chu Xiu did not know what Mei Qinglian was thinking, and he did not care. Today, his attitude was deliberately done for Mei Qinglian to see.
After returning to the Guanxi Branch, Chu Xiu immediately opened the box containing the Little Mortal Key. However, the so-called 'key' in the box made Chu Xiu slightly stunned. It turned out to be a strange, irregularly shaped stone, as if it was knocked off from something.
