Killing God - Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Favor
When night fell, the six islands under the curtain of night were like a sleeping herring in the sea breeze and tide, lying quietly in the rolling waves of the sea. White Fish Bay was the bay where Shen Shi, Sun You and the other rookies stayed. The beach was completely silent. With the light from the clear starry sky, one could vaguely see that the many rookies’ caves on the mountains and seas were already silent. After the excitement of the day, these excited youths had already entered into a happy dream. Perhaps, there were still a lot of people who were looking forward to the path of cultivation that would begin the next day.

There were originally many footprints left on the pure white and delicate beach. They were traces left behind by these energetic teenagers who came to play in the dark. This was because many of the rookies had never seen Canghai before today. They were very curious about everything on the beach.

However, after the dead of night, the sand returned to normal under the waves of the tides. The traces left behind by the teenagers who had once walked and played were inadvertently wiped away by the waves.

The heavens and the earth were vast and the stars filled the sky. At this moment when no one was paying attention, the heavens were filled with a different kind of silent beauty.

At this moment, on a quiet beach in Whitefish Bay, Suddenly, a figure walked out. Looking at a man in his early thirties, his expression was grave. He frowned slightly and stopped for a while. He seemed to be looking for something. A moment later, he walked to an unknown tree growing at the edge of the beach. He stood motionless and waited quietly for something.

Another half an hour passed. Suddenly, a soft sound of footsteps came from behind. The man immediately turned his head to look. Through the starlight in the sky, he saw that it was actually a youth who had yet to fall asleep in the dead of night. Instead, he walked all the way over and saw that the figure was Shen Shi’s neighbor, Sun You.

The man looked relieved and hurriedly greeted him. When Young Friend Sun saw him, he revealed an intimate expression. He nodded and said with a smile, “Little Uncle.”

The man called Little Uncle by Sun Youyou grinned. He touched Sun Youyou’s head with his hand, and then with a bit of vigilance, he raised his eyes to look carefully at Sun Youyou on his way here. After confirming that there was no one there, he pulled him to the shadows of a large tree beside him. There was a tree trunk blocking him. Even if someone looked from afar, with the cover of the night, they could not see clearly if there was anyone under the tree.

In the shadow of the tree, the expression on Sun You’s face gradually calmed down. He raised his eyes to look at this uncle. After a moment of silence, he asked softly, “How is it?”

The man took a deep breath and whispered, “After you hand that thing over to me, it will be of great importance. We took it out of the island overnight through the door of our home and sent it to Floating Cloud City. For the sake of caution, we didn’t disturb the Sun Clan. We specially invited Master Wu from the Divine Immortal Association to the Floating Cloud City Branch’s Treasure Appraisal Hall to take a look at it.”

Young friend Sun’s eyes lit up. He looked at him without blinking and slowly asked in a low voice, “Little Uncle, what’s the result?”

The man frowned and smiled bitterly. Gently sighing, He took out a sapphire blue cloth bag from his bosom and said, It was precisely during the day that Sun You had handed Shen Shi the small bag containing the rare fragrance of a fire pede, He handed it to Sun You and whispered, “Master Wu, after looking at it, concluded that although there are some ingenious old methods on it that are very similar to the ‘Red Sleeved Agarwood’ that is usually used to refresh the mind, it is actually a rare ‘Fire Pendant Fragrance’ that is greatly beneficial to Origin Condensation Realm cultivators.”

Young Friend Sun suddenly fell silent. He did not say anything else. The man standing beside him did not know what to say. After a while, he heard Young Friend Sun say coldly, “It is also an extremely poisonous fragrance to Qi Refining Realm cultivators.”

The man was speechless. After a while, he whispered, “Little friend, what do you want to do?” He paused for a moment, then said softly, “The matriarch already knows about this. She is already furious, but she doesn’t know what you mean. That’s why we are trying to suppress it.” As long as you say it, we don’t want this kind of wolf-hearted family. No matter what, you are the grandson of the matriarch. You are loved by the matriarch the most. If you want me to tell you, why don’t you just … ”

Sun You suddenly interrupted him and said, “Little Uncle, my surname is Sun.”

The man laughed bitterly and remained silent.

Young Friend Sun snorted coldly and said, “All they did was for the sake of the position of Patriarch. If I were to leave the sect behind, wouldn’t I be following their hearts as they wished?”

The man frowned. There was a look of worry on his face. “But they even used this method. What if there’s something else in a day …” At this point, He couldn’t help but sigh softly, “Your mother, who is also my miserable sister, used to be the apex of the old lady’s heart. She loved her the most. Unexpectedly, the old lady was wrong that year, and the fellow she personally chose was actually a white-eyed wolf. She thought that it was a happy marriage, but she did not expect that she would harm her sister.” All these years, the matriarch has been sighing at home, full of guilt. After your mother passed away unexpectedly, the matriarch … ”

At this point, the man was obviously a little excited. He stepped forward and placed his hands on Sun You’s shoulder. He said in a deep voice, “Little friend, if things go wrong, you don’t have to force yourself. Others are afraid of their Sun Clan. They are afraid that there is a Sun Ming Yang behind their Sun Clan in Lingxiao Sect, but our Xu Clan is absolutely not afraid.” “As long as you are willing to return to the Xu Clan, I will guarantee you with my life. It is impossible to treat you as an outsider. If you provide it, it will only be better than the Sun Clan!”

Sun You gritted his teeth and his eyes seemed to be a little hot. However, looking at this youth, he seemed to be an extremely independent person. He reached out and gently held his little uncle’s arm. After a moment of silence, he said softly, “Little uncle, I understand what grandmother and you are thinking.” But … why did my mother die? No matter what, one day, as a son of mine, I will definitely have her spirit tablet placed in the Sun Clan Ancestral Temple and two more tables. ”

The big hand on his shoulder seemed to tighten for an instant. Then, he slowly put it down. The Xu Clan man took a deep look at him and nodded. A trace of satisfaction flashed across his eyes as he said, “Alright, since your intentions are like this, I’ll send someone to inform the matriarch later.” After saying that, he paused for a moment and said, “But this matter right now …”

Sun You sneered and said, “Forget it. Anyway, now that we’re in Qingyu Island, with the rules that Daoist Cen has laid down over the past 30 years, many aristocratic families can no longer interfere in the affairs of the sect as they used to. Just relying on my big brother, who has a golden face and a straw belly, can he do anything to me? If they had the slightest confidence in him, they would not have resorted to such methods. ”

The Xu family man nodded his head repeatedly. From the looks of it, he couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the five-character comment “Golden-Faced Grass Wrapped Belly”.

Sun You also smiled. After a while, the Xu family man said, “But today’s matter is really thanks to your new friend surnamed Shen. Otherwise, under our ignorance, you might really have been plotted by them. At that time, it would be too late to regret it.”

Sun You nodded. His gaze subconsciously turned to somewhere in the row of immersed caves in the darkness of the night. “Speaking of which, this kid’s eyesight is really poisonous. I heard the messenger say that when Master Wu saw this Fire Pendant Fragrance, he personally said that the counterfeiter’s methods were quite exquisite. Even an ordinary shopkeeper in the Divine Immortal Society might not be able to see through it.”

Sun You was stunned for a moment before he said, “What, the hands and feet on this Fire Pendant Fragrance are actually so realistic?”

The Xu Clan man nodded and said, “Master Wu has already said that. I presume it is.”

Sun You’s expression changed slightly. After a while, a trace of doubt appeared on his face. “Could it be … Could it be that Shen Shi had already noticed something wrong at that time? Although there was nothing on his face, did he secretly warn me?”

The Xu Clan man was also suddenly awakened by his words. He frowned and pondered for a moment. After a while, Sun You heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Forget it. Forget it for now. No matter what, Shen Shi saved my life. I owe him a huge debt of gratitude.” “Plus, I deliberately chatted with him during the day, so we can talk. It seems that we should have a good relationship in the future.”

The Xu family man nodded. It seemed that he was in agreement with Sun You’s decision. At the same time, he snorted coldly and said, “The Sun family is a wolf in the heart. Even their direct bloodline is unreliable. Little friend, if you make a few more good friends in the same sect, you will be able to help in the future. Alright, it’s getting late. You still have to go to the Morning Star Hall to cultivate tomorrow. Go back and rest first.”

Sun You nodded and said goodbye to his little uncle. The Xu family man stood under the tree and watched the nephew’s back disappear into the darkness. Only then did he quietly turn around and leave.

Above the curtain of night, stars shone, and the sky was silent. Under the curtain of night, waves surged and surged, but the waves gradually moved away from the beach. It was time for the tide to ebb.

This day had finally passed quietly at this dark moment.

④

April 11, clear.

A red sun slowly rose from the distant depths of the sea. The warm sunlight emitted a radiance of ten thousand feet, reflecting the morning clouds on the horizon. It also heralded the beginning of a new day.

On Bluefish Island, everything seemed to have just woken up from a deep slumber, and it slowly became more lively and noisy. Shen Shi flipped his body, opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. He spread his arms out and extended his chest, yawning loudly.

On the pillow was the sketch of Ling Xiao. Last night, he had been reading the introductory book of the rookie disciple almost all the time. He fell asleep very late. However, he was still full of energy. However, after standing up and exercising a few times, Shen Shi felt refreshed and energetic. At the same time, he was filled with anticipation for this new day.

The long-awaited cultivation was finally about to begin today!

“Dong dong dong dong dong dong!”

A drum-like knock came from the door. Shen Shi smiled and walked over to open the stone door with a cloud talisman. It was indeed Sun You standing at the door. He laughed and said cheerfully, “Shen Shi, let’s go to the Morning Star Hall!”
