105.

The Great Snow Mountain was a "divine mountain" that never melted due to the snow. It was extremely tall, and rumors said that this was the place where the guardian deity's clan could be extradited. Rumor has it that there is a wandering immortal in the mountains who, if he meets a fated person, will make use of his powers to lead the people down the river. He will ride the wind to travel to the Milky Way, and when he opens the sky, he will travel to a vast island. The island was beautiful and beautiful, surrounded by the blue sea. Spring always returned to the four seasons, and there was nothing to exaggerate. There were countless deities on the island, and all the men had outstanding achievements. The women all had the appearance of Heavenly Immortals, calling the island the realm of gods. If so, the island would be considered a deity.

It was said that a thousand years had passed since the beginning of the emperor and when the pill of immortality had begun, the name of the Great Snow Mountain had spread throughout the land. The name Great Snow Mountain was also sought after by many outstanding individuals, and up to this day, a million outstanding individuals had gone up the mountain from time to time to seek immortals. There were few who had obtained anything, and the number of those who had obtained something were few and few.

After several months of travel, Chu Ming finally arrived at the foot of this snowy mountain. At this time, it was already the scorching sun. Looking at the mountain from afar, he couldn't help but feel his pores open slightly, and a chilling intent assaulted him, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.

There was a nameless small town at the foot of the Great Snowy Mountain. The town was poor and empty, and people could barely see the stalls as they walked along the road. However, there were quite a few inns. According to the locals, this place was far from a bustling place. Money and silver were of no use, so it would be better to exchange them for some food.

Chu Ming entered the town and found an inn. After a few days of sleeping while leaning against a tree, he was extremely tired. His waist was aching and he could not bear it any longer. He could only dig out some silver to stay in an inn.

After he finished making the arrangements, Chu Ming slept for a long time. He slept for an entire day and when he woke up, he felt excited and abnormally energetic.

"Tong Tong ?" Knocking sounds came from outside the door. Chu Ming heard it and quickly tidied up his appearance before walking over.

When he opened the door, he saw the owner smiling at Chu Ming, "Sir, do you still need to stay here?"

When Chu Ming heard this, he did not understand and asked, "Aren't I still living here?"

The boss said, "You have already paid for one day, so it is already past the hour. I would like to ask if you want to continue staying here. If you continue, you must pay first."

Only then did Chu Ming remember that he only paid a day's worth of money due to the problem of money. He quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, no need. I'll stay for a day. I'll pack my luggage and leave."

When the shop owner heard this, he nodded and said, "Then you should hurry up. The store is small, and there are still people waiting for you below."

"Someone else?" Chu Ming looked at this dilapidated inn and wondered if all the other inns were filled with people. This snowy mountain could attract people from the martial arts world.

The owner said, "That's right. Don't look at this shabby shop, but it is always full of rooms. As this place is close to the snowy mountain, there are many people coming and going, and sometimes it is too busy to come."

"Why don't you repair these houses when you're making so much money?" Chu Ming touched the rotten wooden door.

"Cough." The owner forced a smile and said, "You don't know, if we can get some money here, we'll get some. If we save up some silver, we'll all have to leave this damned place for the bustling area."

"This place can be considered to have a lot of pedestrians. Why can't it get busy?" Chu Ming was very curious.

Ignoring the fact that there were still guests waiting downstairs, he continued, "This place is not easy to get food for, the land is not good either, it is not easy to cultivate, if you want to eat some delicacies, you can go out and transport them. For this long period of time, there are many bandits on the road who specialize in robbing large carts with goods, and for the second time, the town ran out of food, and for some time, a lot of people even starved to death.

Chu Ming asked, "How come the government doesn't care about robbers?"

The boss quickly looked around and whispered, "This official thief's family has a lot of things to deal with. The officials must have gotten a lot of money just by opening and closing their eyes. The imperial court is in chaos right now!"

Chu Ming thought about the conversation between the two scholars on the road. Indeed, being a government official was more tyrannical than being a thief.

The boss continued, "Actually, which one of these officials is not greedy? "There's only one person in a hundred who isn't greedy. If we run into each other, what's the point of supporting each other. If we don't listen to them, we'll eat them up in the end. In short, it's a crime."

Chu Ming smiled but didn't say anything.

"Hey, boss!" Are you done yet? If you don't have a room, then just say so! "Let's go to another place!" A man downstairs shouted loudly.

When the boss heard this, he hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, yes. It's almost ready. It's almost ready!"

Then, he turned around and said to Chu Ming, "Esteemed customer, hurry up and pack up. The store is about to start doing business."

Chu Ming quickly went into the room to get his sword, bid the tavern's boss farewell, then headed downstairs.

When he went downstairs, he happened to meet two men who wanted to go upstairs. Chu Ming took a closer look and noticed that one of them, who was holding a longsword, turned out to be Du Xing, who was causing trouble at the Poison Hall!

Du Xing also saw Chu Ming and unconsciously frowned. He stopped and blocked the way.

Chu Ming had no choice but to endure and confront Du Xing.

The other man who was about Du Xing's age looked at Chu Ming and then looked at Du Xing. He noticed that the two of their expressions were quite strange and immediately asked Du Xing, "Senior Brother, what's wrong?"

The sword in Du Xing's hand ignored that person and he directly said to Chu Ming, "Long time no see."

"Isn't it better to not see him?" Chu Ming had no intention of backing down.

"But since I've already seen him, I should greet him." Du Xing's eyes lit up, as if he was extremely unhappy that he lost to Chu Ming that day. After all, he had lost face in front of the woman he liked, so naturally, it was hard for others to forget his hatred.

Chu Ming coldly smiled and said, "Then I've already said hello. Brother Du, can you please enlighten me?"

"When did you say hello?" Du Xing replied very quickly. "Are our greetings so simple?"

The nearby junior apprentice-brother was growing increasingly confused.

Chu Ming disapproved and said, "I don't want to have any intimate greetings with you. Are you going to let me go?"

Du Xing said coldly, "Why wouldn't you let me go?"

"What reason do you have to make me give way?" Chu Ming's tone was very firm. It seemed as if he had deliberately poked Du Xing's weak spot, causing Du Xing's body to tremble.

When his junior heard Chu Ming say the words "defeated by hand" to Du Xing, he immediately became angry. He wanted to attack Chu Ming, but he was stopped by Du Xing.

Du Xing said, "Inspector Li, you step down!"

As a junior, when Li Xun heard Du Xing's somewhat dissatisfied voice, he had no choice but to withdraw.

Du Xing continued, "Losers?"

"Isn't it? Do you still want to go back on your word? " Chu Ming was slightly taunting him.

"Do you still remember the words that I said to you before I left the Poison Hall last time?" Du Xing said fiercely.

Chu Ming tilted his head, acting like he didn't know anything, and said, "Did you say anything?"

Du Xing was infuriated by this expression. He immediately pulled out the sword in his hand and swung it towards Chu Ming's neck. Chu Ming reacted quickly and quickly used the four techniques in his hands. With a "scanty sound", the two didn't move. They just stared at each other with eyes that seemed to want to devour the opponent.

Inspector Li was about to make his move when Du Xing hastily shouted, "Get back to the side! This is between him and me, don't interfere!"

This statement made Li Xun extremely embarrassed.

Chu Ming sneered, "If you find a helper, do you still want to lose?"

"Lose?"

Du Xing was furious. Ever since he lost to Chu Ming that day, he started training like a devil and continuously increased his demands towards his sword skills. He continuously practiced until he became perfect for every single movement, so much that he didn't eat nor drink until he fainted. This level of practice was all about defeating Chu Ming and erasing his shame. How could he bear it when he went to the Green Continent many times but never met Chu Ming. This time, he came to the snow mountain and coincidentally met him.

Du Xing stared fiercely at Chu Ming, then he threw out a palm with his left hand. His right hand held a sword as he pressed down on Chu Ming's four techniques, Chu Ming saw him striking out with his palm, so he immediately retreated, then swept his leg out. Du Xing also retreated, and in that moment, the two of them started fighting on the narrow stairs!
