Based on Chu Xiu's personality, he didn't like to meddle in other people's business.
If it was any other sect, he would just treat it as a joke.
But this time, it was the Northern Floating Snow City, and Bai Wuji said he knew the whereabouts of the Sorrowful Poem of Yin and Yang. This was something Chu Xiu couldn't ignore.
Although he didn't know if the Sorrowful Poem of Yin and Yang that Bai Wuji knew was the one he wanted.
After all, the Sorrowful Poem had been scattered throughout the Pugilistic World, and everyone might have a copy of it.
Just like the Annihilating Heaven and Earth Annihilating Oblivion Killing Fist, it should be the most widely spread of the seven Sorrowful Poems. Many in the Eastern Qi Army practiced this technique.
But looking at Bai Wuji's expression, it was obvious that he couldn't tell Chu Xiu what the technique was. It was up to Chu Xiu to ask for it himself.
So at this moment, Chu Xiu suddenly stood up and said, "Governor Bai, I have admired Senior Bai for a long time and would like to pay him a visit. I would like to go with Brother Bai."
When Bai Wuji saw Chu Xiu step forward, a look of relief appeared in his eyes. On the other hand, Bai Hantian's expression changed slightly.
Bai Hantian coughed and said, "Ever since the Great Ancestor went into seclusion a few decades ago, he has never received any guests. Even during the birthday celebration, he would only say a few words, so I hope Lord Chu will be magnanimous enough to forgive me."
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Governor Bai, this doesn't make sense. It's fine if he doesn't receive guests under normal circumstances, but since Brother Bai wants to enter and receive guidance from Senior Bai, he must speak to him. What, Brother Bai can see him, but I can't? Is the Elder Ancestor of the Bai Clan, an expert in the True Fire Spirit Ascension Realm that can't be seen? "
Bai Hantian's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "Chu Xiu! What do you mean by that? How dare you insult my elder in my Floating Snow City? Do you have a death wish? "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Governor Bai, don't be so angry. I've already said that I just want to meet the Elder Ancestor. Is it that difficult?"
Bai Hantian waved his hand and said, "Our Elder Ancestor does not receive guests!"
Chu Xiu took a step forward and said, "What Elder Ancestor does not receive guests?"
Everyone at the scene was dumbfounded. Why did they suddenly quarrel? Why was Chu Xiu so insistent on meeting Elder Ancestor Bai?
Just as the atmosphere was at daggers drawn, Chen Jinting, who had previously clashed with Chu Xiu, suddenly stood up and said, "Lord Chu's words are somewhat unreasonable. It's their business whether they want to meet or not. I've heard of forced buying and selling, but I've never heard of forcing people to meet. What an interesting hobby. "
Everyone turned to look at Chen Jinting. They wanted to see who had the guts to rub Chu Xiu's whiskers.
When they saw that this person was Chen Jinting, everyone had a look of understanding on their faces.
Chen Jinting was not famous in the Northern Yan Pugilistic World. He was not old, but he was not young either. He did not have any notable achievements, so he was not even on the Longhu Leaderboard.
However, his master, Fang Jinwu, was known by everyone in the Northern Yan Pugilistic World.
There were very few Martial Dao Masters who were Rogue Cultivators, and True Fire Spirit Ascension Realm powerhouses who were Rogue Cultivators were even rarer.
Even the First Seat of the Great Light Temple would pay him a visit when he passed by the Empty Valley. They were very polite.
Chen Jinting was Fang Jinwu's disciple, and given Fang Jinwu's age, he would not be able to take in any other disciples. Therefore, Chen Jinting was almost like a closed door disciple. His status was not ordinary. He might not be comparable to Chu Xiu, but at least he would not be afraid of Chu Xiu.
Ren Qianli wanted to pull Chen Jinting back, but he failed to do so. He could only stand beside Chen Jinting and guard against Chu Xiu's sudden attack.
Others might not know Chu Xiu, but Ren Qianli had studied Chu Xiu's information in detail. This person was a little crazy. When others thought he would not attack, he would attack. He could not be understood with common sense.
Chu Xiu looked at Chen Jinting and said with narrowed eyes, "One must know one's limits. Do you know why you're not on the Longhu Leaderboard even though your background is not bad?"
Although Chen Jinting knew that nothing good would come out of Chu Xiu's mouth, he could not help but ask, "Why?"
As martial arts practitioners of the younger generation, both Zhang Chengzhen and Chu Xiu stood at the peak of their peers. However, the envy, jealousy, and hatred that Chu Xiu received was more than Zhang Chengzhen's.
The reason was simple. Zhang Chengzhen had been famous for too long. Even from the moment he was born, he had been shrouded in a halo.
Therefore, when Zhang Chengzhen was young, he had already endured all the envy, jealousy, and hatred. Now, everyone was even used to it. No matter what unexpected breakthrough Zhang Chengzhen made, everyone felt that it was very normal. This was because he was Zhang Chengzhen.
Chu Xiu, on the other hand, was different. Although he was a martial arts practitioner from the Yinmo Clan, everyone in the martial arts world knew that he was actually born in the wilderness. Among the top ten of the Longhu Leaderboard, no one was born lower than him.
Moreover, Chu Xiu was a dark horse, surpassing many of the elites on the Longhu Leaderboard. He even surpassed Zong Xuan, who had been thought to be able to compete with Zhang Chengzhen, and stepped into the realm of martial arts master. This was very surprising.
The result of his reputation and strength rising too quickly was that Chu Xiu would inevitably face the suspicion and subconscious hostility of many people. This was the case for Chen Jinting.
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes at Chen Jinting and sneered, "It's very simple. It's all because you're a piece of trash!"
Chen Jinting's face immediately showed a hint of anger.
He could be considered to have become a monk halfway through his life. He only started cultivating martial arts when he was in his teens, and it only took him a little more than ten years to step into the Three Flower Realm. This was already very impressive.
Moreover, how could someone who was chosen by Fang Jinwu, a powerhouse in the True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm, and accepted as a disciple be a piece of trash?
Chu Xiu continued to sneer, "The path of martial arts is to move forward alone with unparalleled sharpness. Which famous martial artist hasn't gone through countless trials? Which one of them hasn't fought through mountains of blades and seas of blood?
What gave you the courage to say this to Master Pang just now? Was it because of your pitiful little bit of strength? Wasn't it because of your master's reputation and strength?
Now you have the guts to talk nonsense in front of me. What gives you the right? Do you think I can't afford to offend your master?
A guy who only dares to talk nonsense because of his master is nothing but a piece of trash. "
Chen Jinting's face flushed after hearing Chu Xiu's words. It was so red that it looked like blood was about to drip out.
Chu Xiu's words could be said to stab him in the heart. Although that was what he really thought, he was unwilling to admit it.
Taking a step toward Chen Jinting, Chu Xiu's aura was condensed to the extreme. Majestic demonic qi mixed with boundless blood qi attacked Chen Jinting. It was just the aura alone, but it gave people a suffocating feeling of terror.
Compared to the True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm's aura of the Bai family's Elder Ancestor, although Chu Xiu's aura was not as powerful as the True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm's, his aura was more real and terrifying. In comparison, some people even felt that the aura of the Bai family's Elder Ancestor was a little fake.
Ren Qianli's expression changed slightly. He moved and stood directly in front of Chen Jinting. He formed a seal with both hands and a vast and pure Earth Energy erupted from his body. He was as still as a mountain and firmly blocked Chu Xiu's powerful aura.
Although he looked calm, in reality, there was a hint of shock in Ren Qianli's eyes.
The moment he blocked Chu Xiu's aura, he seemed to have seen a boundless sea of blood with countless evil spirits wailing and screaming in it.
This made Ren Qianli extremely shocked. How many people did Chu Xiu kill to be able to condense such a terrifying aura?
Behind Chu Xiu, Mei Qinglian frowned slightly.
She had also witnessed Chu Xiu's rise from the bottom. Therefore, Mei Qinglian was more familiar with Chu Xiu than anyone else.
She clearly remembered that although Chu Xiu's aura was fierce, it was different from what it was now.
Now, Chu Xiu's aura was so strong that it made her heart palpitate indescribably.
However, she felt that the power was very unfamiliar, as if it did not belong to Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu didn't realize these things. He simply said to Ren Qianli faintly, "General Ren, this has nothing to do with you. Since you are here to offer your blessings, then do it well. Just take care of your junior brother and don't be a busybody!"
Ren Qianli did not say anything, but his eyes flashed with a deep sense of fear.
Ren Qianli pulled Chen Jinting aside and secretly transmitted a message to him. He scolded, "Junior! What did I tell you before? Even if Master is around, don't stir up trouble in the underworld.
After all, Master is a rogue cultivator. He is alone and does not have the backing of a big sect. Now that Master is around, you can be more relaxed. However, if one day Master is gone, what will you do? I want to protect you, but the underworld is so big, and there is more than one existence that I can't afford to provoke!
Take Chu Xiu for example. In the imperial court, he is the Viceroy of Zhenwu Hall personally appointed by Her Majesty. He is also on good terms with General Xiang Wu of the West-Hill Army.
In the underworld, he is the successor of the Yinmo Clan. Do you know how much power the Yinmo Clan has hidden in the dark? Even Master is not willing to provoke them easily! "
Chen Jinting lowered his head as his eyes revealed a wisp of unwillingness, and he only explained, "I just can't stand the sight of Chu Xiu being so arrogant and overbearing. Moreover, he's the one who snatched Senior Brother's position! Her Majesty established the Zhenwu Hall to find someone who has deep connections with the underworld to be the Viceroy. No matter how I look at it, this person should be you, Senior. In the end, your position was snatched by Chu Xiu. Why? "
Ren Qianli snorted and said, "I don't need you to stand up for me in my matters. Just take care of yourself! Remember, don't talk too much later! "
