Chapter 2423 Blocking the Road
"Brother Taoist, was the sword you used made by Master Outing?"
"Um."
"Then it was still a success! How is it? What's the level? I don't know much about swords, so I can't tell."
"Very well, the master himself is a little sorry."
"Master will never be satisfied. No matter what, this guardianship is finally meaningful, Brother Tao!"
"Yes, thank you very much, Chongzhi."
"Thank you for what? Hehe, I was worried that I was busy in vain. You didn't tell me earlier!"
"I never wanted to hide it from you, but don't make it too public."
"I understand, don't worry, just kill, kill!"
Two days later, after killing an unknown number of plankton, the two finally arrived at the edge of Crescent City.
Not far away, there were many golden immortals fighting fiercely with the floating beasts. Someone noticed the two of them and flew over immediately.
"Master Zhou Shan! Fourth Young Master You!"
Bu Feng rushed up with his signature smile, "Master Jade has been looking for the mountain master. I didn't expect to meet him here. It's great that you are okay!"
Zhou Shu bowed his hands and said, "I have a labor team leader. Please help me thank Lord Yu. I will come to you when I have time to say thank you."
Bu Feng just nodded, "Okay, behind is the Gangfeng Belt back to Crescent City. It has been specially set up by the city lord. There will be no interference from floating beasts. You can return to the city safely. Please come with me. Fourth Young Master You also invites you."
The two of them entered the Gangfeng Belt.
Turning around and looking at Bu Feng, You Chongzhi said with disdain in his eyes, "Shameless! I didn't even send anyone to look for you. There was Master Ou Ting over there, and he didn't care even though he knew there was a countercurrent. Brother Taoist, Linglong Pavilion went too far this time."
"fine."
Zhou Shu said calmly, "I will remember Bai Yujing's love."
You Chongzhi couldn't help but wave his hand, "Huh? I don't want you to remember this, Brother Dao, I'm just a little angry."
Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head, "Don't think too much, I can tell the difference clearly."
Bai Yujing's move this time can be regarded as a timely help, and Zhou Shu will remember it in his heart.
The problem is not Bai Yujing and Linglong Pavilion, but the city lord of Crescent City. Linglong Pavilion refused to take action because he was worried about the city lord. Bai Yujing went the wrong way to save people and let You Chongzhi bear the consequences alone. Now Zhou Shu is back safely, but he doesn’t know. What would be the attitude of the city lord?
While contemplating, his body shook and froze.
The Gangfeng belt was still flowing, but the body seemed to be frozen and motionless.
"Brother Dao, what are you doing?"
You Chongzhi turned around with a surprised look on his face, but saw a shadow lying between the two of them. He paused for a moment, followed the wave and walked away without speaking.
Because he knew the phantom, there was no point in resisting.
Zhou Shu remained calm and saluted, "Senior City Lord?"
The virtual shadow was an old man with an ordinary face. He stood there motionless and said expressionlessly, "Zhou Shu, show me your sword."
Zhou Shu had a calm look on his face and held the Zhen Evil in his hand, "Senior, you can look at it, but you can't take it away."
"Ah."
A slight smile appeared on the city lord's face, and he glanced at the sword. The smile immediately froze, and he paused for several breaths, "What a good Ou Ting, what a good sword, a good sword."
Zhou Shu's heart moved and he quickly put the sword back.
The city lord frowned, "I'll buy your sword, you can set whatever price you want."
Zhou Shu shook his head simply, "I won't sell it."
The city lord said slowly, "Don't you understand what I mean?"
Zhou Shu looked serious, "Junior understands. The senior said that asking a price at will will definitely be irresistible. Even if he is promoted to Daluo or something, of course junior cannot resist. It is better not to listen. This sword is related to an important promise to the master. , before it is completed, please senior not to tempt junior."
The city lord said slowly, "What name did Ou Ting give the sword?"
Zhou Shu said calmly, "Suppress evil."
"Um?"
A light flashed in the city lord's eyes, "It's this kind of thing again. After so many years, the Ou family has never learned to live in peace. Since it's a promise, forget it."
Zhou Shu saluted and said, "Thank you City Lord for your understanding. If nothing happens, I would like to return to the city first."
The city lord stood in front, motionless, "Zhou Shu, you want to return to Crescent City. I welcome you, but you need to do one thing."
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "If I can't do it, I won't be able to go back. Then I will have no choice but to leave."
The city lord looked slightly condensed, "You knew it couldn't be done without asking?"
"Don't join Bai Yujing, right?"
Zhou Shu said slowly, "Senior is too high-minded to the junior. Bai Yujing and Linglong Pavilion have thousands of golden immortals, and there are many strong people. Even if the junior joins Bai Yujing, it will not change the situation. With all due respect, without this junior, it would not be possible." Everything is fine, their two families will have a conflict in Crescent City sooner or later, it's just a matter of time, why should the seniors stick to the juniors alone."
"Just go back."
The city lord glanced at him, and the shadow quickly disappeared.
On the top of the dome.
The old man looked out the window and said to himself, "Bai Yujing and Linglong Pavilion will conflict sooner or later. Don't I know that? Zhou Shu, you don't understand anything."
"You have just completed my test, gained Ou Ting's favor, and obtained the title of Suppressing Evil. Can I still ignore you in the future? You may not care about this, but how can Bai Yujing and Linglong Pavilion let go of this opportunity? You are the person I like, but you are also a bargaining chip in their competition. If you don't express your attitude directly, you are destined to be caught in the conflict between the two families and become the center of the whirlpool. It's not that I think highly of you, but that you underestimate yourself. By myself."
"Well, it's your choice, just let nature take its course."
"That world is full of troublesome people."
"Report!"
A voice came from below.
The old man sat down and waved, and a shadow appeared in front of him, bowed his head and said, "City Lord."
The old man said calmly, "What's the matter?"
Xuying whispered, "Linglong Pavilion is starting to make some moves."
The old man waved his hand, "Continue to observe, don't worry about anything else."
Gangfeng belt.
You Chongzhi approached carefully, "Brother Dao, the city lord just came to see you, are you okay?"
"fine."
Zhou Shu said calmly, "He asked me not to join Bai Yujing, but I didn't agree because I had no intention of joining Bai Yujing."
You Chongzhi thought for a while and said, "The city lord always likes to control these things. Brother Dao, don't worry about him. He can't control what you want to do, so don't worry too much. You have the identity of the Wanhun Sect, and he doesn't dare to deal with it." What about you, and Bai Yujing, the second brother will definitely understand, I don’t think he had this intention at the beginning."
"That's really thoughtful, Chongzhi."
Zhou Shu smiled and said warmly, "You go back and tell him that even if you don't join, you can still do something."
He had no intention of joining, but he would clearly state his attitude that he would definitely be related to Bai Yujing in the future, so it would be better to say it in advance.
You Chongzhi was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Oh, then I'll go back and tell my second brother."
"Let's go. We've been fighting for so long. Let's go back and have a good rest."
Zhou Shu patted his shoulder, smiled and quickened his pace. You Chongzhi followed closely and started laughing, although he didn't know why.
