Chapter 272: Soft-hearted
Shi Chun naturally understood what he heard and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he didn't do anything and just passed by here, but this guy from Shudao Mountain wanted to kill him. The reason was just because he was Shi Chun. What the hell?
If he had known this would happen, he would not have come down and would have just run away.
Although he was thinking about it, he didn't react. Apart from a faint glance at Yuan Yao to show that he remembered this person, his expression didn't change much. He still maintained his smile, staring at Gu Lianni, quietly waiting for the other party's reply.
I wouldn't say I was calm and composed, but I was certainly very peaceful.
If he really wanted to take action, he would be wary of the so-called magic weapons, because each magic weapon had its own ingenuity and was strange and bizarre. He had only heard of them but had never seen them, so he did not dare to act rashly.
But if he really had no other options, he would not sit and wait for death. After his cultivation had broken through to the upper level of high martial arts, he had not yet found anyone to try his hand at.
How can I describe his current mentality? On the one hand, he is worried about being defeated, and on the other hand, he is itching to show off his skills, after all, he still has some confidence.
The Demon Bathing Technique that he had refused to give up even when his cultivation was unable to make any progress, and the several large gourds that he had painstakingly obtained from Wukang Mountain, were all his accumulated strength. In fact, he had been on the verge of exploding for a long time.
Of course, if speaking softly could help him avoid the current trouble, he wouldn't mind doing so. He was observing whether it was necessary, after all, he was not familiar with these people.
Anyway, he can say both soft words and hard words, and it doesn't matter whether he says it in the positive or negative way. He is used to deciding based on the situation.
His calmness surprised Shu Daoshan and his gang, as if the person Yuan Yao was targeting was not him.
Stay calm in times of danger, that's the demeanor of a great general!
This was the thought that flashed through Gu Lianni's mind. She felt that he could be comparable to the man who dominated the Tianyu Meteor Conference. After all, at first glance, he didn't look like a tall and mighty man. At first glance, she thought it was an exaggeration.
She said cheerfully: "Why, aren't you afraid?"
Shi Chun seemed puzzled: "What are you afraid of?"
Gu Lianni gestured to Yuan Yao, "Don't you understand what he said?"
Shi Chun said, "His words are not important, so there is nothing to be afraid of. You have the final say here."
This statement was a bit disrespectful to Yuan Yao, and made his heroic horse face a little embarrassed. He wanted to refute, but it was difficult to do so, because what the other party said was absolutely right. It was indeed this junior uncle who had the final say here, and he could not deny it.
But the look in his eyes when he looked at Shi Chun was already malicious. They were all relatively young and still had their edges and corners, and no one wanted to be looked down upon.
Gu Lianni raised her chin, intentionally showing off a bit of arrogance, "So, tell me, should I let you leave alive, or should I let you stay here forever?"
Shi Chun: "Let me tell you, I naturally hope you let me go. After all, I didn't provoke you or offend you, so it's a bit unreasonable to say that I was wrong to pass by here."
Gu Lianni: "Are you sure you didn't provoke me?"
Shi Chun was stunned. "Really? It seems like this is the first time we meet?"
With her hands on her hips, Gu Lianni glared at him, "Did you just call me a warrior?"
Obviously he was somewhat dissatisfied with this title.
Shi Chun looked at her somewhat robust figure and explained hurriedly, "No, no, I was calling them. I was calling them."
In fact, when he was in exile, he always called people "strong men" and women "female strong men". He himself forgot who he learned this from. Later, he realized that it was inappropriate through learning and tried hard to correct it, but sometimes he still said it out of his mouth.
It’s been a long time since I last did this. Today, I was probably seduced by this woman’s figure.
Gu Lianni didn't seem to have calmed down. She looked him up and down a few times and said calmly, "Then you have to beg me to forgive you."
Shi Chun was also straightforward. She immediately bowed her hands and begged, "You are so beautiful, and you are obviously a heroine. I believe you will not embarrass me. Please spare me."
This weak and cowardly behavior made the other disciples of Shudao Mountain either hold back their laughter or show sarcasm on their faces. What a shame that he was the number one in the Sky Rain Meteor Conference, but he was just like this.
After all, it is impossible for disciples from big sects like them to be so spineless so easily, especially in front of so many people, which would be a disgrace to the sect.
Gu Lianni's eyes flashed with surprise. She suddenly turned her head to look at her fellow disciples flying over from a distance. Thinking that she still had important things to do, she didn't pursue the matter any further. "Okay, you can go. But you'd better remember my words. Shu Daoshan is doing business here, and outsiders must stay away. If it happens again, there will be no such good thing."
"Yes, I will keep it in mind. Everyone, I'm leaving now." Shi Chun bowed to everyone and was about to turn around and leave.
Gu Lianni suddenly called out, "Do you know who I am?"
Shi Chun continued to play dumb and said, "I don't know."
In fact, he knew his identity and his surname was Gu, but he really couldn't remember his name because it was not worth his time. Young Master Nan had given him information about so many participants that he really couldn't remember them all. Being able to remember this person was already a sign of his concern.
Gu Lianni: "Don't you want to know who I am?" Shi Chun said hurriedly: "I thought so, but I was afraid it would be too abrupt, so I didn't dare to ask. Since the young lady mentioned it, I will take the liberty to ask, may I ask the young lady's name?"
Seeing his polite manner, Gu Lianni felt that he was indeed more pleasing to the eye than those big and strong guys around her, and said loudly: "My name is Gu Lianni, remember, your Shichun once begged for mercy from me, Gu Lianni!"
Shi Chun didn't think it was a big deal. Before he took the position of the head of Dongjiuyuan, he had begged for mercy countless times. After he took that position, he had also begged for mercy many times, and even made Wu Jinliang kneel down and call someone his mother. Begging for mercy was nothing. He had long been used to it.
However, the fact that she emphasized this at the end still made him feel a little weird, and he wondered if this woman was mentally ill.
"Yes." Shi Chun bowed humbly, then turned around and jumped into the air.
After he rode the wind scales, he circled in the air again. He used his right eye's special ability to observe the situation closely again, and memorized the topography before quickly flying away.
On the ice, the newly arrived disciple from Shudao Mountain reported: "Uncle Master, our formation is ready."
Gu Lianni watched the figure leaving in the air and nodded to show that she understood.
Yuan Yao at the side spoke again: "Uncle Master, I still think that Shi Chun's sudden appearance here is not a coincidence. Moreover, the sect has reminded us to be careful when we meet this person. We really shouldn't let him leave."
Gu Lianni stared at the direction where the figure disappeared. "You are absolutely right. There may indeed be a problem. I also want to keep him to prevent future troubles, but I am worried that I can't keep him."
This time, not to mention Yuan Yao, even Pang Hou was a little surprised, "Uncle Master, you are too self-deprecating, we are a group of high-level martial artists, and we have magic weapons to bless us, how can we not stop him who is just at the upper level?"
Gu Lianni tilted her head to look at him, "Just now, you didn't really think he was afraid of us, did you? I didn't see any fear in him, in his eyes, in his words and deeds, or in his bones. He was just pretending to agree with our attitude.
It is true that his cultivation level is at the upper level of high martial arts, but his cultivation level was only at the initial martial arts level a year ago. Within just one year, he has reached the upper level of high martial arts.
His talent for cultivation is very high. When he was at the minor success level of high martial arts, he defeated Mulan Qingqing who was at the upper success level of high martial arts of Su Yuanzong.
You only know that Su Yuan Sect is one of the four major sects in the cultivation world, but you probably don't have a real concept of how terrifying Su Yuan Sect is. I know Mulan Qingqing, and I know how terrifying her strength is.
Let me put it this way, if it really is a fight of life and death, even if we have magic weapons in our hands, even if we join forces, we may not be her match. She may kill us all before we even get close to her!
Mulan Qingqing is not his opponent yet, and now he has broken through to the upper realm, and his strength will only become stronger. We may not be able to keep him."
Yuan Yao said: "Uncle Master, I heard about Mulan Qingqing's defeat. Her defeat may not be due to her lack of strength, but to the fact that her martial arts could not restrain her. Shi Chun could win against Mulan Qingqing, but not necessarily against us!"
"That's right." Many people nodded in agreement.
Gu Lianni: "I know what you mean, I have the same idea. I want to try out what kind of quality this so-called number one in the Sky Rain Meteor Conference is, even more than you do. He can actually make so many people afraid and can actually defeat all the big and small sects in Shenzhou. But I hesitated again and again and finally gave up, because I really don't have absolute confidence.
What I mean by absolute certainty is a quick victory. If we make a big move, our 'Origin Locking Formation' will not be successfully deployed, and the divine fire in this place will not be trapped. If the divine fire is scared away, how long will it take us to find it in such a large area? Wouldn't that be a waste of the opportunity left to us by our ancestors? I am not sure, who among you dares to guarantee this certainty?"
After this was said, everyone was silent, even Yuan Yao, who realized after reflection that he almost missed the important task, felt a little ashamed, and immediately bowed his hands to apologize, "Uncle Master, it was Yuan Yao who was impulsive."
Gu Lianni waved her hand and said in a heroic manner: “Things have their priorities, we shoulder the heavy trust and hope of the sect, and we must not let them down.
When the business is almost done, I will definitely wait for an opportunity to meet this so-called number one in the Sky Rain Meteor Convention, who is better than anyone in Shenzhou. I will let this boy become famous, and I will never let him look down on our weapon refining world again.
Who says women are inferior to men? I will definitely kill his arrogance for just treating us perfunctorily, and let all the men in Shengshenzhou know that I am Gu Lianni from Shudao Mountain!"
Pang Hou smiled and said, "The Divine Fire Domain is vast. It's not easy to encounter it once. I'm afraid I won't be able to encounter it again until the end."
Gu Lianni put her hands on her hips and raised her eyebrows and said, "He has to go out through the exit, right?"
I wonder if the reason why her waist is so thin is because she likes to put her hands on her waist.
The group of people in Shudao Mountain looked at each other and finally understood. Even if they hadn't met Shi Chun this time, this junior uncle would probably take the initiative to cause trouble for Shi Chun. They didn't know how Shi Chun had offended this junior uncle.
In another ice valley, Shi Chun descended from the sky and saw Wu Jinliang and others waiting there. He subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Wu Jinliang noticed that he looked different and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Shi Chun showed a self-deprecating look on his face, "I met a woman and was taken advantage of by her."
"Woman?" Wu Jinliang was stunned, then glared and said, "How dare you take advantage of our boss. Where is she? Is she pretty? I'll catch her and sleep with her, and I'll make you vent your anger!" As he spoke, he touched the big gourd on his back.
Chu Jingtang and others looked at each other and smiled evilly.
Shi Chun rolled his eyes at Wu Jinliang and said, "Stop talking nonsense in the future. We are not in the land of exile now. It is not important to have a good reputation when you are out there. Okay, we arrived just in time. The things haven't been taken away by Shu Daoshan yet. Let's go and start working!"
