Chapter 244 - 236: Rash Man, Rash Man!
However.
The one person in the crowd who hadn’t saluted yet naturally stood out amongst the others.
He Song, who was originally standing at the back of the crowd, now seemed quite out of place with the others around him.
Noticing that Master Cang Jian in midair was already looking at him, a hint of helplessness flashed across He Song’s face.
His current displayed cultivation was at the ninth-tier Qi Refining stage.
The refusal to salute was inexcusable.
Thinking of that, He Song slowly raised his hand, wanting to salute and fit in with everyone else.
However, just as He Song raised his hand, a fierce shout suddenly came. “Bold! How dare you disrespect Master? Are you that Evil Cultivator?”
A young cultivator standing behind Master Cang Jian suddenly pointed at He Song with anger flashing across his face.
Why didn’t a Qi Refining stage cultivator salute when he saw a Foundation Establishment- stage Master?
He Song stood there as if nothing had happened, making it seem as though he was disrespecting a Master of the Foundation Establishment stage.
Master Cang Jian was a guardian of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion, and if one disrespected him, it essentially meant not taking the other members of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion seriously.
This thought ignited a flame of anger in the young cultivator’s heart, and he pointed at He Song, accusing him with a loud shout.
Moreover, the title of ‘Evil Cultivator’ was placed directly on He Song’s head.
At the entrance of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion.
When these words came out, the surroundings became as quiet as a graveyard.
The cultivators who were bowing their heads still did not dare to breathe heavily.
However, their eyes secretly looked all around, seemingly wanting to know who the brave individual was that dared to disrespect the Master.
And it was during this moment of utter silence when everyone was searching for He Song’s whereabouts that a flicker of confusion flashed across his eyes.
No, it’s not true.
Are you blind?
Can’t you see I’m raising my hand to salute?
There was just a slight delay compared to others, and so impatiently, he jumped out and slapped a bowl of dung on my head.
What, think I’m easy to bully?
His eyes glanced at the source of the voice, and He Song raised an eyebrow.
In front of him.
A group of cultivators from the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion had all their eyes fixed on him.
Some of them had a touch of pity in their eyes.
Some of them had a hint of sigh in their eyes.
And there were even those who had the look of ‘I knew it’ in their eyes.
But not a single person wore a trace of surprise on their faces.
Seeing this, He Song suddenly understood the situation.
If you want to sin, what trouble is there to find a pretext?
The person who scolded him was not blind, but just randomly chose someone to make an example of.
However, upon thinking about it, He Song didn’t bother to argue anything.
A small Qi Refining stage cultivator,
was not worth He Song arguing with.
The He Song of today was no longer like the one from his past when he was in the Qi Refining stage.
Now, He Song’s cultivation level was in the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, with the Four Great Spirit Puppets by his side, and high-quality Artifacts protecting him.
Moreover, before entering the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion, he had set up three Array Skills outside as a trump card.
Under these circumstances, if he was still afraid of an Early Foundation Establishment stage Cultivator, then there was no point for He Song to practice immortality.
He has already become an immortal with a long lifespan.
Why else would he practice every day if not to acquire more significant power, so he wouldn’t be afraid in the face of a challenge?
In order not to die senselessly in a foreign land, given his powerful capabilities?
Setting up Array Skills outside the Immortal Pavilion was to better protect himself in extreme situations.
Now that trouble has come knocking,
He Song, under the circumstances when he’s capable of resolving the situation, will naturally not continue to hold back. He is just naturally cautious, and not intending to be a shrinking turtle.
As people had already oppressed him, He Song would naturally fight back.
Moreover,
This matter was not initiated by He Song.
He only came here to sell spirit rice.
From the moment He Song started selling spirit rice to when he was stalked by the Immortal Pavilion Law Enforcement Team,
After escaping the gaze of the Immortal Pavilion Law Enforcement Team,
He changed his appearance and was interrogated by several groups of people in the restaurant,
Now, he was stopped as he tried to leave, and even had the label of an Evil Cultivator thrown at him.
And soon, he would become the chicken in a kill-one-to-warn-a-hundred situation.
How was this fair?
He merely wanted to sell spirit rice. How did he end up being an Evil Cultivator that everyone wanted to eliminate?
Even a clay figure has three points of fire.
He Song came here to sell spirit rice and did not want to cause trouble.
However, these people before him forced him too hard, making it unbearable for He Song.
Instead, he focused his attention on Master Cang Jian and prepared for a possible fight.
When the fight starts,
He will just cut down the complainer with a single sword.
Master Cang Jian looked at He Song, his expression did not change, but after thinking a bit, he withdrew his gaze from He Song and gestured to the side.
“Li’er, do not be disrespectful. Stand down.”
Upon hearing Master Cang Jian’s voice, the angry young man who pointed at He Song finally removed his gaze from him with a resentful expression on his face.
“Yes, Master.”
As He Song heard their conversation, a look of sudden realization flashed in his
eyes.
No wonder.
No wonder this young man, known as Li’er, was so angry at He Song’s refusal to salute.
It turned out he was the disciple of Master Cang Jian in front of him.
It’s only natural for disciples to protect their masters.
However, Master Cang Jian didn’t take this opportunity to cause trouble for He Song, which was unexpected.
Although if roles were reversed, he wouldn’t get angry just because a Qi-refining cultivator didn’t greet him, but just because He Song could do it, didn’t mean everyone in this world could.
In the Cultivation World, it has always been the survival of the fittest, and ordinary cultivators would have a high probability of getting angry in this situation.
With high cultivation, one could do whatever they wanted.
He Song was even prepared to fight at any moment.
But he didn’t expect.
Master Cang Jian in front of him didn’t take the fierce approach against him as he imagined.
Instead, he scolded his disciple and asked him to withdraw.
This behavior.
It made He Song view Master Cang Jian in a new light.
Such actions were nothing like those of the rude men of the Golden Sword Sect.
Could his previous speculation be wrong?
Was Master Cang Jian not impulsive, and the blockade of the entire Golden Snake Immortal Mansion was done by others?
“Hmph, all of you stand still for me; I suspect the evil cultivator is among you, and I’m going to personally inspect you with my divine sense.”
Just as He Song was speculating that Master Cang Jian was not an impulsive person, a cold snort rang in his ear.
Immediately, He Song felt a sharp gaze falling on him.
Looking up.
He saw Master Cang Jian staring at him expressionlessly, with a glint in his eyes.
It seemed that he had already determined that He Song was the evil cultivator he mentioned.
Seeing this, He Song was speechless.
Instantly.
He Song overturned his previous speculation immediately.
An impulsive man would always be impulsive.
The impulsiveness of the Golden Sword Sect was indeed well-deserved.
Even their excuses were terrible.
“Let’s start with you.”
As He Song overturned his previous speculation and reconfirmed that Master Cang Jian was indeed just an impulsive person, Master Cang Jian’s icy voice rang out at this moment.
At the same time, He Song keenly sensed a strong divine sense probing toward him.
Realizing this, He Song’s heart sank.
Sure enough, impulsive people would always be impulsive.
It seemed that today’s battle was inevitable.
With this thought flashing across his mind, He Song suddenly dashed towards the exit of the Immortal Pavilion.
Even if they had to fight.
They couldn’t do it in front of so many people.
It wouldn’t be too late to lead this man into the valley where he had set up three array formations and fight there.
At the entrance of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion.
When Master Cang Jian pointed at He Song and said that they would start with him.
Almost all of the cultivators who were saluting at that moment secretly raised their heads, wondering who the unlucky one would be.
The joy of avenging a great grievance flashed across the face of Liter, who had previously angrily scolded He Song.
He Song’s refusal to greet Master Cang Jian had enraged Liter.
Now that Master Cang Jian had decided to personally take action to save face for him, Liter was naturally overjoyed.
However.
Just as everyone was focused on He Song, wondering how he would respond.
With a blur in front of their eyes, He Song, who was still standing in place, suddenly dashed out of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion.
His speed was incredibly fast.
Before they could exclaim, another cold snort rang in their ears.
“Hmph, trying to escape? Overestimating your abilities!”
As Master Cang Jian spoke, before anyone could react, his figure was seen chasing after He Song.
He Song and Master Cang Jian’s figures vanished into the distance under everyone’s eyes, disappearing from their sight after crossing a small hill.
Only a group of loose cultivators and members of the Immortal Pavilion Law Enforcement Team were left gazing at each other.
Master Cang Jian’s speed was simply too fast.
Although He Song had controlled his speed well, he was still much faster than the average Qi Refining great perfection cultivators.
But he did not exceed the limit speed of the Qi Refining stage.
He Song’s figure sped up as he dashed out of the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion and headed for the valley where he had set up three array formations.
Previously, Master Cang Jian had extended his divine sense and attempted to attack He Song.
Naturally, He Song wouldn’t sit idly by, forcibly suppressing his strength to the ninth-tier Qi Refining.
As a result, when He Song dashed out, his speed had already far exceeded the maximum speed that a ninth-tier Qi Refining cultivator could reach.
However, in order to make Master Cang Jian feel at ease in chasing him, He Song didn’t display his full speed, but maintained it between Qi Refining great perfection and early-stage Foundation Establishment.
In this way, Master Cang Jian would not lose him due to He Song’s high speed.
And he wouldn’t be scared off by He Song revealing too much of his cultivation.
With He Song’s deliberate control, his speed was extremely fast, but it didn’t make Master Cang Jian lose his confidence in chasing and killing him.
In this manner.
Leading Master Cang Jian into the valley where he had already set up his traps was no longer a difficult task.
As long as Master Cang Jian enters the three array formations he had set up earlier, wouldn’t he be at He Song’s mercy?
While dashing towards the valley, He Song didn’t forget to look back to see if Master Cang Jian had caught up.
Outside the Golden Snake Immortal Mansion.
Two figures were chasing and fleeing, one after the other.
But the distance between them was gradually narrowing down.
Flying in mid- air and watching He Song fleeing far below, a cold light flashed in Master Cang Jian’s eyes.
“At first, I just wanted to kill a chicken as a warning to the monkey, but I didn’t expect that the mysterious person who sold the spirit rice in the Thick Earth Sect years ago was actually you?”
“When Liu Ping informed me of this, I was somewhat skeptical.”
“But now, I believe it.”
“With your speed, how could those good-for-nothings in the Thick Earth Sect possibly catch you.”
Chasing He Song all the way, seeing the distance between the two of them getting closer, Master Cang Jian seemed as relaxed as a cat playing with a mouse, even teasing He Song.
“Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you after I catch you.”
“Our sect is not like the waste of the Thick Earth Sect. As long as you reveal the source of the spirit rice in your hands and join the Golden Sword Sect, we will cultivate and protect you.”
“How about it?”
“If you know what’s good for you, just surrender obediently and avoid getting hurt by mistake when the time comes..”
