Chapter 423 - Shen Family Patriarch Shen Ling
"Humph!" Who dares not to look down on the Great Clan Elder, Nie Xiaoyu, you are just a young servant of my Shen family, do you think that after entering Gold Jade Sect, you can look down on everyone and read through their names!? "
Just as Nie Xiaoyu released her zhen yuan qi, a cold voice suddenly came out from within the Shen Mansion, followed by a powerful True essence pressure. It rushed out from the main entrance of the Shen Mansion like an avalanche, directly pouncing towards Nie Xiaoyu.
"Breaking Qi Transformation!"Facing the powerful True essence pressure that suddenly surged out from the Shen Mansion"s door, Nie Xiaoyu waved the sword in her hand like the wind, she immediately roared, and a sword screen completely formed from the Silver Sword Qi appeared in front of her, blocking the True essence pressure that was rushing out from the door.
"Bam!"
The silver sword screen was resplendent, even though it was able to block the attack of the True essence pressure, in a split-second, it exploded with a loud explosion.
Without the silver sword screen to block, Nie Xiaoyu was forced to slowly retreat under the powerful might of the True essence pressure.
"Fellow cultivator, to make a move in front of my junior sister, you truly do not place me, Xiao Kuan, in your eyes!"Seeing that Nie Xiaoyu could not resist anymore, Xiao Kuan who was standing by the side and did not move an inch suddenly stood out, he opened his mouth and roared, and a powerful True Vowel wave surged out from his mouth, rushing towards the True essence pressure.
Although Xiao Kuan"s shout was not as tyrannical as the Heaven Ranked Martial Technique when it was used, it was still powerful. In an instant, the True essence pressure that was released from the Shen Mansion"s gate was dissolved.
After Xiao Kuan made his move, Nie Xiaoyu"s figure stopped moving backwards. She turned her head back and looked at Xiao Kuan with grat.i.tude.
"I never thought that there would actually be a cultivator of the Divine Arts realm visiting my Shen Mansion. "Hahaha."
After the True essence pressure"s attack was resolved by Xiao Kuan, a middle-aged man with a full beard quickly walked out from inside the Shen Mansion. He was dressed like a Confucian Scholar, and had an amiable smile on his face as he walked straight in front of Xiao Kuan.
This is my senior brother, Li Mu. The two of us and the young miss of your esteemed palace, Shen Cai Qing, are from the same sect. When we heard that her good fortune was about to come, we specially came to congratulate her and also wanted to tour around the White Cloud City.
Xiao Kuan smiled at the middle aged man who called himself Shen Liang, and then revealed his purpose of coming. They had come here to save Shen Cai Qing, and were naturally not foolish enough to directly say the reason, hence they spoke of it anxiously.
So you are the young miss"s fellow Gold Jade Sect"s Fellow Daoists, how unwelcome, you two are able to come to our Shen family to witness our young miss Shen family"s dual cultivation ceremony three days later, our Shen family still hasn"t had enough time to be happy, how could we not welcome you!In this White Cloud City, although the Shen family could be considered to be one of the top powers, but in the entire Qin Nation, they were only second-rate powers. Furthermore, the overlord of the entire Qin Nation, everyone knew that they were the Gold Jade Sect, so Shen Liang, who was able to be the butler of this Shen Mansion, was naturally not a brainless person.
"Welcome, right? Then why didn"t I see it? Butler Shen, is this how your Shen family treats guests?!" Let me tell you, if it was me, then it would be fine, but my Senior Brother Li is my Gold Jade Sect"s Master Heir! Who knows? Maybe in the future, he will be my Gold Jade Sect"s Sect Leader, your Shen family is truly mighty, it"s fine if you don"t want us to enter, but you actually dare to make a move! I think your Shen family is living a great life in White Cloud City! "
Xiao Kuan changed from his usual state, revealing a gloomy and vicious look, he shouted coldly at Shen Liang."What!?" Gold Jade Sect, this … This fellow is the successor to the Gold Jade Sect"s Sect Leader? Oh wow, I, Shen Liang am truly blind, truly guilty of a thousand crimes, truly guilty of a thousand deaths, please forgive me, fellow daoists, I do not know! "
When he heard that Li Mu was Gold Jade Sect, Shen Liang could not help but widely open his eyes, he could not help but take a few more glances at Li Mu, the ordinary-looking youngster. He did not expect the other party to be at Early Divine Realm, but he did not expect Li Mu to be from Gold Jade Sect.
"With a single sentence, he deserved to die ten thousand deaths! Let me tell you, our Gold Jade Sect has personally come to your Shen family. This is giving your Shen family a huge amount of face, and with you treating our guest like this, you are looking down on my Gold Jade Sect! If it were not for Shen Cai Qing, you would have thought that we would be willing to come! Hurry, get the person in charge of your Shen family out! If you don"t give us an explanation today, then don"t blame us for not giving you face! "
Xiao Kuan didn"t spare him, and spoke in a rough and arrogant tone. He directly went in front of Shen Liang, and in front of him, took out his overbearing and leaking huge blade from his storage ring, and inserted it into the ground, shaking the jade floor into powder.
"This... I really didn"t know that the two of you would come here, and I will immediately call my Shen Family"s Patriarch to come see you two, can you two follow me in? Since the two of you are from the same sect as my Young Miss, I hope that you can give us some face, since there are so many people watching us! "Following Xiao Kuan"s action, it had already attracted many busybodies over. Right now, they were surrounding not too far away to watch the show, and under the pressure of being forced, he could only ask Xiao Kuan for help in a soft voice.
Who the h.e.l.l would give my Gold Jade Sect face! "Scram!"Xiao Kuan roared angrily at Shen Liang, he turned the blade in his hand and stabbed it ferociously into the ground in front of him, and the gigantic sword that was more than two meters long was abruptly stabbed one meter into the ground.
Shen Quan, go quickly and ask the Patriarch to come!
Seeing that Xiao Kuan was not willing to let go despite his repeated requests, Shen Liang did not know what to do, thus he hurriedly gave a look to the Shen family guard beside him."No need, the Patriarch of Shen Clan, Shen Ling is here. Since you are my daughter"s senior brother, please give me some face and let go of these juniors who don"t know the rules! "Hahahaha."
Before the Shen family"s guard could even move to ask the Shen family"s patriarch, a ray of green light suddenly rushed out from the Shen Mansion and arrived in front of the door. It was a middle-aged man with a three-inch short beard, his aura was extremely strong and he had already reached the early stage of Tongxuan realm, he was dressed in a white gold-plated robe and his entire body was releasing a rich aura that had been around for a long time, one could tell from his words, that he was the patriarch of the Shen family, Shen Ling.
"Greetings Senior Shen, junior Xiao Kuan greets you!"
Seeing that Shen Ling had suddenly appeared, Xiao Kuan immediately put down his pretense, his face revealing a smile, the opponent was a Tongxuan realm Ranker, so naturally he could not act as haughtily as he did with Shen Liang."Junior Li Mu greets you!"
Seeing the main master appear, Li Mu walked in front of Xiao Kuan and politely cupped his hands towards him. Although the cultivation world had a background, in the end, it was still based on strength alone. Even though Li Mu did not like this Patriarch of the Shen family who was using his daughter as a bargaining chip, the other party was still a senior, so he did not dare to do too much.
"Hahahaha!" There"s no need to be overly courteous, just being able to rush over to partic.i.p.ate in Cai Qing"s Duo Cultivation Ceremony would mean that you two must have very deep connections with his daughter, Cai Qing. Since that"s the case, then don"t call me senior, just call me Uncle Shen! Isn"t it obvious that we"re close like this? Little friends, what do you think? "It was obvious that Shen Ling was a sly old fox who had muddled his way through cultivation for many years. Not only did he not mention a single word of Xiao Kuan"s and Li Mu"s rudeness, he had even befriended Li Mu and Xiao Kuan.
"Uncle Shen is right. Since that"s the case, this junior shall not be polite and call you Uncle Shen!"Xiao Kuan"s mouth raised into a smile, the reason why he acted so haughty and arrogant earlier was naturally for the sake of showing off to the Shen family, as they would not look down on him unless he revealed his background, and only if they fear him, would it benefit their next actions.
"Good, good, good! Very good! Little friends, stop standing at the door. It"s rare for you guys to come to my Shen family. "Please!"
Seeing that Li Mu and Xiao Kuan did not have any displeasure towards his, Shen Ling smiled and welcomed them courteously in through the main entrance of the Shen Mansion, walking towards the main hall of the Shen family. Nie Xiaoyu, on the other hand, respectfully followed behind Li Mu and Xiao Kuan, and upon seeing how courteous Shen Ling was to Li Mu and Xiao Kuan, she was extremely happy.
No wonder you were able to become a core disciple of the Gold Jade Sect. I just vaguely heard little friend Xiao say that this little friend Li is the Master Heir"s Master Heir, I wonder if this is true? "After bringing Li Mu and Xiao Kuan to the main hall of the Shen family and sat down, Shen Ling who was seated in the main seat asked with a happy smile on his face.
"I have let Uncle Shen down, I, Li Mu, am indebted to the sect master and the various elders within the sect. Although it is only in terms of Early Divine Realm, I have indeed been ordered to serve one of the five great Master Heir s."Li Mu knew that Shen Ling was purposely testing his words, and replied with a little arrogance on his face.
"Aiya! Little friend Li Mu has become a Master Heir at such a young age, your future is limitless, but I have heard that if you want to become a Master Heir, there are always conditions, and one of them is that you need to reach late-stage divine ability, and it seems that you have to be at least a hundred years old. Little friend Li Mu, you have actually reached the latter, but the former … "Hehe."
It was obvious that he still suspected Li Mu"s ident.i.ty. After all, the Gold Jade Sect was the number one cultivation sect of the Qin Nation, and Shen Ling knew a bit of common sense within the Gold Jade Sect.
"Hahahaha, Uncle Shen, you know quite a lot. You actually know the rules of choosing Master Heir like the back of your hand, but have you heard anything about my Senior Brother Li?"How could Xiao Kuan not understand the meaning behind Shen Ling"s words? He smirked and asked.
