Hearing Tian Mozi’s words, Sha Qinghua was taken aback; she had always felt a sense of superiority in her heart.
As a descendant of the Great Emperor and the Saintess of the Imperial Rule Immortal Sect, few people dared to provoke her.
Even those who were stronger than her rarely dared to cause her trouble.
Apart from her background, everyone also knew that she had an extrely doting brother who was like a madman.
But now, her brother was telling her that the very things she relied on, so people simply didn’t care about.
There were really so people who dare to kill her, as carelessly as smashing a waterlon.
......…
Sha Qinghua glanced in Xu Zii’s direction, then looked down, lost in thought, unsure what she was contemplating.
ng Kuo also looked at Xu Zii in surprise; he hadn’t expected that after so long without seeing each other, Xu Zii had changed so much.
While the two were eating, another group of people walked up the stairs to the second floor.
Xu Zii took a look and saw that among them were the Great Elder’s grandson Shao Xingyu and the chief disciple Zhong Xin.
Shao Xingyu also saw Xu Zii and asked in surprise, "Xu Zii, what are you doing here?."
"What, do I have to report my whereabouts to you?" Xu Zii retorted.
Shao Xingyu snorted coldly and then sat down with the group at a nearby table.
It was unclear what the group discussed, but soon after, a young man in a white robe left his seat and approached Xu Zii.
"Young Master Xu, hello," the white-robed young man smiled at Xu Zii, saying, "I am Zhang He, a disciple of the Misty Sect. May I get to know you?"
"Not interested," replied Xu Zii, continuing his al without looking up.
He knew that the other party was with Shao Xingyu and definitely ant no good approaching him.
Furthermore, he was now pondering the opportunities of his past life and had no ti to play mind gas with these people; killing them wouldn’t benefit him at all.
Simply put, their levels were entirely different; he was thinking of restoring his cultivation from the Divine Vein Realm of his previous life, yet didn’t want to walk the sa old path, intending to maximize his cultivation increase.
Whether it was the Prison-Suppressing Divine Body or the World Pearl, these were things he had yearned for in his previous life but had never obtained.
As for ssing with these so-called Saint Heirs and Saintesses, it ant little to him.
......
Zhang He frowned at Xu Zii’s attitude, but his face quickly brightened into a full smile again as he continued, "Young Master Xu, I recently heard so rumors that I wanted to verify with you. Are you unwilling to speak, or are you truly afraid?"
Looking at Zhang He’s renewed provocation, Xu Zii put down his chopsticks, looked up, and said indifferently, "I can’t be bothered to waste words with you. So things should be stopped in moderation, or else you’ll face consequences you can’t handle."
Hearing Xu Zii’s words, Zhang He subtly glanced at Shao Xingyu, then clapped his hands hard, attracting the attention of everyone in the inn.
"Listen up, everyone, I have sothing very interesting to share," he announced loudly.
So ti ago, I accidentally heard a rumor that the Deputy Sect Master’s son of the True Martial Holy Sect, using his father’s influence, committed all kinds of misdeeds within the sect.
He deceived a junior sister into betting, convincing her to steal a Monster Beast cub from the Emperor Pulse Realm for him.
And he openly robbed fellow disciples of their possessions, often associating with other disciples of questionable conduct within the sect.
I feel these martial world rumors are often completely unfounded.
Today, having seen the protagonist of the rumors - our Young Master Xu - at first glance, he appears to be a fine figure of a man.
I believe Young Master Xu is absolutely not such a person, but rumors do harm people; nonetheless, I still hope Young Master Xu can offer everyone an explanation.
"You aren’t as despicable and shaless, filthy, and vulgar as the rumors portray."
Hearing Zhong Xin’s words, the youths in the crowd turned their curious gazes toward Xu Zii.
Xu Zii looked at Zhong Xin without understanding and then glanced in the direction of Shao Xingyu.
eting Shao Xingyu’s mocking gaze, he knew that there really wasn’t much to this situation; Shao Xingyu was just trying to disgust him.
In front of so many peers, the aim was to make Xu Zii look foolish and lose face.
"Young Master Xu, what are you hesitating about? Could it be that those things are actually true?" Zhong Xin expressed with an exaggerated and astonished look.
"I think when it cos to acting, you really need to learn from Xiao Guizi," said Xu Zii with an indifferent smile.
"What do you an, Young Master Xu?" Zhong Xin asked, montarily taken aback.
"I don’t know how much you were paid to co here and be the fall guy," Xu Zii stood up, laughing, "But I understand one thing: no matter how good the reward, you have to be alive to enjoy it."
"What, could it be Young Master Xu is losing his temper out of embarrassnt and wants to kill ?" Zhong Xin said with a big laugh, "Today, in front of so many talented youths, my death would be insignificant. I just want everyone to see your true colors."
"You guessed right, I am indeed going to kill you," said Xu Zii with a smile, and then he slowly drew his curved blade.
"Young Master Xu, aren’t you being too overbearing?" A young man in a blue robe stood up next to Shao Xingyu and spoke, "Brother Zhang is just asking you for confirmation, also considering your reputation. Are you truly going to kill with such wanton disregard?"
As the blue-robed young man finished speaking, Shao Xingyu also stood up and said harshly, "Xu Zii, what do you think you’re doing?
The True Martial Holy Sect is a renowned sect in the Extre West Region, not a den of bandits.
As the son of the Deputy Sect Master, you represent the Sect Gate’s honor.
I can’t allow you to act recklessly; as a mber of the True Martial Holy Sect, I must take responsibility for the sect’s reputation."
"Exactly, Sect Master Xu reigned supre all his life; how could he have a son like you? We’re ashad to associate with you."
The young people on the field voiced their criticisms of Xu Zii in a hubbub, but in reality, all of them were Saint Heirs or Saintesses from their respective sects.
People weren’t fools; many were just there for the spectacle, and the ones truly blaming Xu Zii were all part of Shao Xingyu’s group.
...
Xu Zii smiled, looking at those youths who were still condemning him, and slowly took out two items from his Storage Ring.
One of the items was an oval-shaped Array Plate, which was the Level Six Array Plate he won from Lu Ang as a bet—equivalent to the killing power of an Emperor Pulse Realm martial artist.
The other item was the Jade Pendant given to Xu Zii by Xu Qingshan, within which resided a Divine Incarnation with nearly the strength of the Half-Step Saint Vein Realm.
Seeing Xu Zii take out these two items, the well-inford youths’ faces changed dramatically in an instant.
"Just to introduce, a Level Six Array Plate, and a Divine Incarnation of the Half-Step Saint Vein Realm," Xu Zii said with a smile.
The youths in the field who had been criticizing Xu Zii suddenly fell silent, and so even had cold sweat trickling down their foreheads.
"I, to kill him - who objects?" Xu Zii surveyed the surroundings and asked calmly.
Even Shao Xingyu didn’t dare to speak at this mont; he hadn’t expected Xu Qingshan to care so much for Xu Zii, to the point of splitting apart a part of his own Divine Soul to give to Xu Zii.
