Killing God - Chapter 307
Chapter 307 Friends
The atmosphere outside the Five Elements Hall instantly became tense. Looking at the confrontation between the two Origin Core Realm Daoists in front of him, It seemed that there was a big sign of disagreement. Xu Yanzhi and Shen Shi, who were standing at the side, were somewhat at a loss. However, Elder Yun Ni, who was the only person present who could see them, only looked at each other coldly without any intention of speaking. There was even a trace of impatience flashing through the depths of their eyes.
Right at this moment of tension, a straightforward male voice suddenly sounded in front of them. “The two Martial Uncles, please calm down for now. Don’t make a move. Otherwise, if others see you, wouldn’t it be the two of you who will lose face?”
Everyone turned to look, A man strode over. With a smile on his face, his figure was unrestrained. A little unruly, There was also a huge black sword in his hand. He casually carried it on his shoulder, reflecting a slightly dazzling bald head. It was so striking that there was only one person in the entire Golden Rainbow Mountain. He was the eldest disciple of the Sect Master Huaiyuan, the leader of the three swords of the Ling Xiao Sect, and the most prestigious among the younger generation of Ling Xiao Sect disciples, Du Tie Jian.
Old Man Pu rolled up his sleeves and glanced sideways at Du Tiejian who was walking over. He stopped and snorted angrily, “Why are you here?”
Du Tiejian chuckled and said, “Didn’t I hear that Martial Uncle Pu is planning to take in disciples today and come over to see the fun?” As he spoke, he turned around to greet Sun Ming Yang and Yun Ni. Perhaps he was accustomed to being indifferent, and his etiquette was a little casual. However, the two high-ranking Origin Core Realm Daoists, Yun and Sun, seemed to look at Du Tiejian differently. They didn’t care about his negligence. They only lightly nodded and greeted each other.
Even though there had been rumors that Du Tiejian had dared to curse Elder Sun Ming Yang behind his back and was punished by the Sect Master, Elder Sun did not reveal any anger or disgust. He looked like he had seen an ordinary Martial Nephew, no different from him.
The originally tense atmosphere in the arena had eased because of Du Tiejian’s sudden appearance. However, looking at Old Man Pu who was still humming angrily, Du Tiejian smiled and said, “Martial Uncle, why are you so angry?”
Old Man Pu pointed at Sun Ming Yang and said, “This old man is taking in disciples. Isn’t it annoying for you to run over here and interfere?”
Du Tiejian coughed and lowered his voice slightly, “Martial Uncle, Elder Sun has already told his master about this matter.”
“Huh?” Old Man Pu was stunned. He turned to look at Du Tiejian and asked in astonishment, “What?”
On the side, Elder Sun Ming Yang revealed a smile. He smiled and didn’t say anything.
Du Tiejian smiled bitterly and whispered, “Martial Uncle, my Master said that during the meeting that day, you all did decide that all the elders must be strict in accepting disciples between now and the Four Main Assembly. To be honest, the examination you set up earlier was indeed … oh, too low.”
Old Man Pu rolled his eyes and said angrily, “Brat, you dare to call me!”
Du Tiejian wasn’t afraid of him either. He only smiled and said, “You really are. Since you want to accept disciples, why did you shout so loudly during the meeting that day? Did you set the rules yourself to death?”
Old Man Pu spat and said angrily, “At that time, I didn’t expect to accept disciples. If you go back and tell your master, I’ll take those words back. Damn it, cheering for your unlucky master was half dead. There was not a single benefit left. In the end, I was trapped. I quit, I quit!”
He spoke unscrupulously on his side, The few people beside him looked sideways, Du Tiejian laughed dryly. First, he smiled apologetically at the other two elders. Then, he hurriedly pulled him to the side and tried to persuade them. After a while, he patted his chest and did not know what he had promised Old Man Pu. Only then did Old Man Pu’s expression soften a little, but he still looked at Du Tiejian doubtfully.
“Brat, are you serious?”
Du Tiejian laughed heartily and said with a heroic expression, “A man’s words are irrevocable. Just one sentence. In the future, I will protect that little junior brother for you.” As he spoke, he turned around and waved his hand at Shen Shi from afar. Shen Shi hurriedly returned the greeting as he stood there.
Old Man Pu snorted. Finally, he didn’t say anything else. Du Tiejian smiled and turned around. He walked to Sun Ming Yang and Yun Ni and said, “Elders, my master told me to send a message that Elder Sun advocates strict rules. That’s right, that’s what should be done.”
Sun Ming Yang smiled and nodded, “Brother Headmaster really understands what is going on.”
Du Tiejian smiled. Then, he took another step forward and approached Sun Ming Yang. At the same time, he whispered, “Martial Uncle Sun, Master has said something else. No matter what, everyone is fellow disciples, and they are also in the positions of the five great elders. We still need to give them some face.” In addition, Little Junior Brother Shen Shi’s cultivation is indeed not high. If the exam fails, I’m afraid that Martial Uncle Pu’s face will be ugly. “Why don’t we make a compromise? Since Martial Uncle has already said it, let him go to the middle Coral Sea to search for the Silver Sea Anemone Pearl. However, the number is limited to one. What do you think?”
Sun Ming Yang pondered for a moment and then said indifferently, “I just hope that there are rules in the sect. I’m not biased against that young disciple. Since the senior teacher said so, then let’s do it.” As he spoke, his gaze turned to Elder Yun Ni, who was standing at the side. Yun Ni’s beautiful eyes turned, and her expression was also faint. She did not speak, but only slightly nodded, which was considered to be agreement.
Du Tiejian smiled and took a step back. Old Man Pu walked over with an unhappy expression and shouted to Shen Shi, “Come, let’s go. Today, we’ll see if you have the ability to find me a Silver Sea Anemone Orb!”
Shen Shi took a deep breath and hurriedly walked over. Xu Yanzhi also followed her with concern. Unexpectedly, Old Man Pu waved his hand at her and said, “Girl, keep the housekeeper. Don’t come to join the fun.”
“Hey!” Xu Yanzhi was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to argue, he saw Old Man Pu casually roll up his sleeves. A strong wind instantly pulled Shen Shi to his side. Then, he floated on the flat ground and flew straight into the sky. Sun Mingyang and Yunni, who were beside him, also flew up. Several figures flew up into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a few black dots and disappeared into the blue sky and white clouds.

On the north side of Floating Cloud City, on a secluded street leaning against a towering city wall, there were many houses with uneven heights. Many of them were small households. After Young Friend Sun left the An Shan Inn with Ling Chunni, he arrived here.
As he had said before, Ling Chunni’s residence was a small house. There was only one room in total, plus a small courtyard that was less than half the size of the house surrounded by white walls. A half-old locust tree stood at a corner of the courtyard with its neck tilted. It was simple and quiet.
After chatting with Ling Chunni in the room and giving some instructions, Sun You took his leave and walked out of the room. When the door was closed, he saw Little Hei running out and running around the courtyard. Then, he slipped to the ground of the locust tree and rubbed it. He seemed to be satisfied with this place. He lay under the tree like this and looked like he wanted to sleep again.
Friend Sun smiled and closed the door. He turned around and saw a middle-aged man standing not far from the roadside. He was smiling at him. Young friend Sun nodded at him with a smile and called out, “Little Uncle.”
That person’s expression was somewhat familiar. It was precisely Sun You, Shen Shi, and the others who had helped Sun You’s little uncle Xu Xing when they were cultivating on Green Fish Island. After many years, his appearance looked slightly older than before, but his entire person still looked very capable and capable.
When Young Friend Sun walked over, Xu Xing glanced at the room and asked with a smile, “Have you settled everything?”
“Yes,” said Sun You, “I’ve almost finished my explanation.” After pausing for a moment, he glanced at Xu Xing and said, “Little Uncle, is this place really safe? If something happens to this woman, I won’t be able to explain it to Shen Shi.”
Xu Xing nodded and said, “Don’t worry, do you still not believe me? This house has nothing to do with the Sun and Xu Clans. Even if someone tracks it down, they can only find out that it was bought by a certain merchant. Everything will be fine.”
Young Friend Sun said, his expression relaxed a little.
However, after the two of them walked forward side by side for a while, Xu Xing couldn’t help but say to Sun You, “However, I always feel that you don’t need to help that woman to such an extent. Although this house isn’t big, in Floating Cloud City, it would cost at least 8,000 to 9,000 spirit crystals to set up such an estate. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration if the location was slightly better than 10,000.”
“I’m not helping that woman. I’m helping Shen Shi.”
Xu Xing nodded and said, “Of course, but …” He hesitated for a moment, but lowered his voice slightly. “I heard that Shen Shi accidentally left Lingxiao Sect a few years ago. As a result, his cultivation hadn’t improved an inch in the past three years. Right now, among the disciples of the Origin Condensation Realm on Golden Rainbow Mountain, his cultivation realm alone is probably at the bottom. I don’t think this kind of person is worth the effort you put into making friends with, little friend. ”
Young Friend Sun paused for a moment before turning to look at Xu Xing. Xu Xing’s expression was calm as he looked at him calmly. After a moment of silence, Young Friend Sun said, “I know Little Uncle, you are doing this for my own good. However, regarding Shen Shi, there is naturally a reason why I put forth all my effort to help him.”
He smiled and said, “First of all, little uncle, you have left the sect and returned to the Xu Clan in the past few years, so you may not be very clear about some of the details of the personnel.” Shen Shi had indeed delayed for three years, but once he returned to the mountain, he had almost immediately advanced to the Origin Condensation Realm. And during this period of time, I have seen that he is still the same as before. He often goes down the mountain alone to temper his adventures and face all kinds of demonic beast enemies. Therefore, if I’m not wrong, although Shen Shi’s current cultivation is not high, his actual combat strength will definitely not be low. “In time, what kind of person will he be when his cultivation level rises?”
Xu Xing replied thoughtfully.
Sun You paused for a moment and then said, “Right, there is one thing you may not know. It is very likely that Shen Shi has been favored by Elder Pu Siyipu, who is in charge of the Seven Halls of Lingxiao Sect. In the near future, he may directly join Elder Pu’s sect and become one of his direct descendants.” “You don’t think that a Grand Daoist at the Origin Core Realm, and a Grand Cultivator ranked among the five great elders of Lingxiao Sect, would have a weaker vision than us, right?”
Xu Xing was obviously shocked. It seemed that the news that Elder Pu Siyi wanted to take Shen Shi as his disciple was quite shocking. He quickly changed his opinion. After pondering for a while, he suddenly seemed to recall something. He raised his head and asked Sun You, “It seems that Shen Shi really has some potential. Little friend, you have a good eye for him, but did you say that he is one of them? Is there any other reason?”
After a moment of silence, Young Master Sun calmly said, “Second, I really treat him as a friend.”
