Chapter 324: Chapter 150: I am not fond of fighting in my life, only fond of resolving them (3rd update, please subscribe)The stars dot the sky, the Milky Way flows like water. The grand gates of the Giant Whale Gang’s stronghold are wide open, people come out to welcome the visitor. Among them, there is no lack of strong warriors in Martial Arts, their Qi-Blood naturally radiating and converging into a cluster. Should someone skilled in Qi Observation be present, they would notice the subtle gathering of Yang Gang Qi above the stronghold, oppressing the Divine Soul. "Xu Jieyuan has traveled from afar, Ren Tianyou neglected to greet you from a greater distance, I hope you’ll forgive this small discourtesy." Xu Jieyuan’s scholarly achievements are too imposing, Ren Tianyou, who emerged from the worldly society’s grassroots, naturally feels somewhat inferior educationally when facing the well-known top scorer from South Zhili, hence his speech takes on a more bookish tone. This has nothing to do with Martial Arts, influence, or other external factors. It is purely a result of the value system ingrained from childhood. In the Southeast, the culture of scholarship flourishes. seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. An ancient saying goes, "Accumulating wealth of tens of thousands is less than the act of reading books." Even the former Emperor personally composed poems to encourage education— "The wealthy need not buy fertile fields, in books, there are grains by the thousand bushels. No need to build a lofty hall for a serene dwelling, in books, there exist houses of gold. Do not lament the lack of companions when leaving home, in books, there are horses in abundance. When seeking a wife, do not worry about the absence of a good matchmaker, in books, there are beauties fair as jade. Should a man wish to fulfill his lifelong ambitions, he diligently reads the classics by the window." A poem advocating for education speaks volumes of the benefits of studying. And in the current dynasty, the imperial examination system has developed to a new peak, where this ingrained value system has grown even stronger. Especially since Xu Qing stands upright like jade in the wind, slowly descending from the big tree. It is as if navigating through the reeds with ease, traversing the boundless horizon. Grand and unfettered like riding the wind through emptiness without knowing the destination; drifting like one detached from the mundane world, effortlessly ascending to immortality. His bearing, detached from the dust of the world, and his demeanor, transcending the mundane, cause the wild rogues of the worldly society and the lapdogs of the powerful to feel ashamed of their own inferiority. From then on, King Lin finally realized that his own arrival could never achieve the same effect as Xu Qing’s. Both men were tall with long limbs. One had the halo of a Top Scorer. Just by looking, one resembled a Sword Immortal, a Banished Immortal. If I, Lin Tian, came, being more rough around the edges, unpolished, I might well be mistaken for The Immortal of Colossal Spirit, Actually, it’s also because Xu Qing often practices Crane Form Skill, with an exceptional physique and posture. He naturally carries an air of an Immortal. Forget that the bronze mirror judged Xu Qing as an Outer Heaven Demon. Indeed a Heavenly Demon, adept at beguiling hearts, when impersonating an Immortal looks more like a True Immortal. After all, the image of a True Immortal might just be the idle wishes of common folk, whereas in reality, being bald, bucktoothed, or lame... are all possibilities. But a Heavenly Demon can precisely impersonate the Immortal envisioned by people. One is an Immortal, the other specializes in impersonating Immortals. For matters of the world to be distinguished, the crux of victory lies in the word "specialized." Xu Qing greets Ren Tianyou with a cupped fist, a standard worldly society gesture, then looks around at the gathered experts who came to welcome him and casually remarks, "Today, I, Xu Qing, am one of the worldly society. Let’s only speak of worldly affairs, and there’s no need to mention the Top Scorer title here." His tone is gentle and soothing, like a spring breeze, causing an unconscious sense of closeness in others. There’s no helping it, humans are visual beings. When two peerless swordsmen duel, at the first glance, one definitely hopes the handsome one will win. If one is described as a sword coming from the west, the other as an Outer Heaven Flying Immortal. You would definitely think the Outer Heaven Flying Immortal is more powerful. In the beauty of text, the Outer Heaven Flying Immortal has already won! Meanwhile, King Lin, before others came out, has already gotten Xu Qing’s hint and lay hidden aside, concealing his Qi-Blood. Among the crowd, aside from Red-haired Yan Kong noticing, no one else was aware. Seeing Xu Qing come alone, with extraordinary poise and surrounded by an aura, they naturally speculate on his intentions, and for a moment, they even forget about the lack of fairness in the worldly society’s rules, tempted to knock him down and tie him up in the stronghold before anything else. This is also because of Xu Qing’s earlier Thunder Sound, which had a deterring effect. Without anyone leading the charge, naturally, everyone is cautious and unwilling to be the target. Lest they become the focus of Xu Qing’s wrath, and even if they were to take him down together, they themselves would suffer heavy blows, resulting in a pyrrhic victory. After all, everyone is out here for themselves, preserving strength is the ultimate path. Unless the benefit is too great, there’s no need to take the risk. Having killed Xu Qing, one still has to face the retribution from his powerful backers! Being the host, Ren Tianyou can only reply, "Xu Jieyuan, for the late visit, what exactly brings you here?" Xu Qing responds breezily, "I heard about the discord between Gang Leader Ren and Island Owner Lin, and it is precisely for this matter that I have come." At the mention of the main topic, everyone feels more at ease. Ren Tianyou shakes his head, "In the worldly society, everyone serves their own master. Although Ren admires Xu Jieyuan’s demeanor, I can’t just let this matter go because of it," Xu Qing: "Now with the undertows surging, once conflicts erupt intensively, no good will come of it. For example, Gang Leader Ren, I only fear that you will get hurt in this battle, at that time..." Ren Tianyou’s heart sinks, "At that time, what?" Xu Qing speaks methodically, "The fruits of your labor would be cheap for others, like..." His gaze lingers back and forth on Yan Fu, Gu Wuji, and others. Gu Wuji, Yan Fu, and the others curse inwardly; even if they really think that way, you, young man, should not expose it! Otherwise, can they still pretend to be amicable surface friends with Ren Tianyou? Fortunately, Xu Qing did not speak out, and instead, his gaze finally settles on Red-haired Yan Kong, he smiles slightly, "Grandmaster, my sending you to the Giant Whale Gang was indeed with intentions towards Gang Leader Ren’s foundation, but now I’ve changed my mind." He was surprised to sense Yan Kong’s presence here, yet he remained calm. Because this time, the black aura around the Qi Fortune Little Snake was thick but not to the extremely dangerous level. This was enough to show that the current state of Red-haired Yan Kong, after being jointly struck by Yan Kong and the Old Wutong Tree with the Peach Wood Sword, was no longer comparable to when they first met at the Golden Ray Monastery. Thus, with King Lin hiding on the side, Xu Qing now has an ally in him. Even against many skilled foes, together they could come and go as they wish.
