The people on Nie Dongliu's side were clamoring to teach Chu Xiu a lesson and stand up for Nie Dongliu. However, Nie Dongliu waved his hand and said, "It's just a misunderstanding. There's no need to do this. Everyone knows how I am. There's no need to get angry over one person."
Everyone looked at each other and made up their minds. Even though the young master said they wouldn't cause trouble for Chu Xiu, they still had to find a chance to teach Chu Xiu a lesson and leave a deep impression in Nie Dongliu's heart.
Seeing everyone's gaze, Nie Dongliu shook his head. A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
To kill someone, one didn't need a sword, but a human heart.
Why was his father's nickname "Heaven and Earth Flip?" This nickname was not only because of his father's famous consummate skill, Heaven and Earth Cloud Hand, but also because of his father's ability to summon clouds and rain with a flip of his hand. With the strength of one person, he had developed the Righteous Manor into one of the Six Gangs of Human Harmony, a great force whose name shook the Jianghu.
Since young, Nie Dongliu had seen his father as his best role model. Killing with a sword was the lowest form of attack.
On the Longhu Fengyun Supreme List, there were many in the top twenty who had achieved inner invulnerability, not to mention the top ten. Why was he ranked sixth? Nie Dongliu didn't just rely on his strength. He also relied on his methods.
Meanwhile, on Chu Xiu's side, Lu Fengxian suddenly said, "This young master of the morgue is not a simple character. I'm afraid he's bearing a grudge against you this time. What if you held back and chose to befriend him and join the morgue?"
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "It's useless. Back then, there were many people who saw that battle. When Zhang Baitao shouted the words' Young Manor Lord ', many people heard it.
Even if I feigned civility with Nie Dongliu, he would find out as long as he asked the martial artists in Luyang Town. How many people in Northern Yan can be called young master by Zhang Baitao?
If Nie Dongliu could guess such a simple thing, he must know that I could also guess it. Therefore, it would be useless to pretend to be courteous with him.
However, this isn't a big deal. If he bears a grudge, so be it. The good thing about being a wandering martial artist is freedom. The barefooted are not afraid of those who wear shoes. There isn't any sect in Jianghu that can cover the sky with one hand. Even the Kunlun Devil Cult from a thousand years ago was the same. "
Lu Fengxian nodded and said, "That is indeed the case. I heard that a few years ago, a direct descendant of the Celestial Master's Mansion of Mount Longhu died at the hands of West Chu's Demonic Path's rising star, 'Heart Hunter' Tong Kaitai. He was brutally dismembered and his heart dug out. Mount Longhu sent out a large number of experts to search for him, but Tong Kaitai still managed to escape from West Chu. His whereabouts are unknown, and because of this matter, he was ranked twenty-third on the Longhu List."
Chu Xiu nodded. The Jianghu was huge, but this world was even bigger. Even if it was the Wind Sweeping Building that was known as the world's leading wind broker or the three empires, they wouldn't be able to accurately detect everyone's movements.
If they were forced into a corner, they could just burrow into the forests and hide for a period of time before coming out. Basically, nothing would happen. After all, there were always major events happening in the Jianghu. Who would be so bored to specifically keep an eye on one thing?
Take for example the Wei County. It had already been a few months and the sects in the Wei County were initially giving face to the Azure Water Sword Sect. They were paying attention to Chu Xiu's movements from their own territories. But after such a long period of time, there were no results. Who would pay attention to such matters? Perhaps even the Azure Water Sword Sect themselves had slacked off, except for Shen Bai.
Right now, on Mount Lu Yang, there were quite a number of martial artists gathered. In the center were the disciples of the major sects led by Nie Dongliu.
When night fell, a hazy green glow rose from the ground. Everyone could feel a tremor, as if the earth was going to split open. This made some of the lower level martial artists panic.
Martial artists were also humans, especially these Body Tempering Realm martial artists. In the face of the mighty force of heaven and earth, their strength wasn't much stronger than ordinary people.
Fortunately, this tremor didn't last for long before it stopped. On the next morning, everyone discovered that there was a crack on the east side of Mount Lu Yang. Even during the day, there was an aquamarine glow rising from it.
This time, everyone immediately understood that there must be a treasure inside!
Without the need for others to take action, a few of the surrounding aristocratic families and sects immediately sent their disciples to start digging from the palm-sized crack. Unfortunately, this crack was unfathomably deep and seemed to extend all the way into the ground. Hence, everyone gave up after a short attempt.
But now that they could determine the location of the treasure, there were immediately people fighting for positions. No matter what, they had to be closer to the crack.
In terms of strength and status, of course, Nie Dongliu stood in the center, while the rest stood around him. However, there were some better positions closer to the crack, which caused many people to fight for them.
Chu Xiu said to Lu Fengxian indifferently, "Brother Lu, let's go. We should also go and get a good position."
As he spoke, Chu Xiu and Lu Fengxian also walked towards the crack on the east side.
Among the martial artists present, there were Body Tempering, Blood Condensation, and Xiantian. After a few days of fermentation, the strangeness of Mount Lu Yang had already spread to the surrounding states and prefectures. There were definitely a lot of Xiantian martial artists here, but when they saw Chu Xiu and Lu Fengxian walking over, those ordinary Xiantian martial artists took the initiative to make way for them.
In other places, they might not know Chu Xiu, but in the vicinity of Lu Yang Town, it was impossible for them not to know Chu Xiu.
Previously, Chu Xiu had beheaded Zhang Baitao and the other three in front of everyone. This was seen by dozens of people, and the details were very clear. It had long been spread by people.
Now that some outsiders wanted to come to Mount Lu Yang to snatch the treasure, they naturally had to inquire about the strength of the martial artists on Mount Lu Yang and so on. Naturally, Chu Xiu's name would be among them, and he was also listed as one of the dangerous characters.
After all, Liu Yuanhai and the other two had a little fame in Linzhong Commandery, but now, they all died in the hands of this Chu Xiu. He could fight against four people and still kill all of them, so he was definitely not a simple person.
Moreover, not only Chu Xiu, but also Lu Fengxian, who was next to him, was the same.
It was said that this person had also shattered a Xiantian martial artist's weapon with one move. It was estimated that he would only need a few moves to kill a martial artist of the same level. When the two of them joined forces, their power was even enough to challenge a martial artist of the Qi-controlling Internal Aura Realm. This group of people naturally did not dare to fight with them for the position.
Moreover, even if there were some stronger Xiantian martial artists on Mount Lu Yang, they had no intention of fighting with the two of them for the position.
The treasure hadn't appeared yet, so why bother fighting with two such troublesome opponents? They had not seen the treasure yet, and they were already fighting to the death. They would not do such a stupid thing.
However, just as Chu Xiu and Lu Fengxian were getting closer and closer to the crack, Yue Luchuan, who was next to Nie Dongliu, gave his subordinates a look. Those Xiantian martial artists immediately knew what to do and immediately walked towards Chu Xiu and Lu Fengxian.
In Yue Luchuan's opinion, it was worth it to teach two martial artists with no background a lesson to befriend the Young Manor Master of the morgue.
When the others saw that Yue Luchuan had made the first move, they did not move. In fact, they had also wanted to increase their position in Nie Dongliu's heart by teaching Chu Xiu a lesson. It was a pity that they did not bring enough people.
This group of people were not idiots. That Chu Xiu could kill four Xiantian Realm martial artists by himself, and they only brought three or four Xiantian Realm martial artists with them. It would be dangerous for them to charge forward rashly.
On the other hand, Yue Luchuan's Yue Clan of the Northern Mountains was a big family. The Elder of the Yue Clan was even a Physical Invulnerability Realm expert. If it were not for his old age, he might have reached the realm of condensing the Three Flowers above his Head. The Yue Clan had no lack of Inner Invulnerability Realm and Xiantian Realm experts. As the eldest son, Yue Luchuan would bring at least seven or eight people with him every time he went out.
With a look from Yue Luchuan, seven Xiantian martial artists from the Yue Clan immediately walked in front of Chu Xiu and Lu Fengxian and said coldly, "Stop!"
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you mean? Lyu Yangshan doesn't belong to your clan. Now that the treasure has yet to appear, you're already sealing off the mountain to intercept it. Do you mean that when the treasure appears, you, the aristocratic families, will eat the meat, but not even a little bit of the soup will be left for us, the individual cultivators? "
As soon as these words came out, most of the individual cultivators present looked in their direction with unfriendly gazes.
It was normal for the martial artists from the aristocratic families to have an advantage when facing the individual cultivators. After all, they knew each other and were powerful, while the aristocratic families were like a plate of loose sand.
But even so, in the past treasure hunts, almost all the good things were taken by the aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families could accept some leftovers. But now, the aristocratic families didn't even leave any leftovers for them. They had already sealed off the mountain before even seeing the treasure. Wasn't this a little too much?
The contradictions brought about by social class existed everywhere. Originally, they were already somewhat dissatisfied with these martial artists from the aristocratic families. Now, Chu Xiu's words could be considered to have completely infuriated them.
Seeing that Chu Xiu's words had provoked the hostility of the individual cultivators present, the few Yue Clan martial artists were so angry that they almost cursed.
We only said two words in total. How the hell did you know that we were going to seal off the mountain and leave a way for the individual cultivators to live?
