"Hmph. This child being able to force back that animal is truly laughable!"

"Even if someone from the Hollow Jade Sect secretly sent a sound transmission to help me, I would still think that I'm nothing more than a little ant!"

Cao Ba, the vice sect master of the Yan Sect, had already guessed the purpose for which Tian Long had come to the Hollow Jade Sect.

He was jealous of the Hollow Jade Temple for accepting the Wind Spirit Root disciples and the Fire Spirit Root disciples. At the same time, he was not satisfied with the sect that did not choose him, but he had truly wrongly accused the Hollow Jade Sect.

Those who came to observe the ceremony wanted to know whether or not Shen Tu Shun was Tian Long. Before they knew his identity, Tian Ci was still an important guest of the Hollow Jade Sect, and the Hollow Jade Sect was responsible for protecting him.

As for the provocation in the Monster King's words, almost everyone in the Hollow Jade Sect thought the same way. Only Su Liang wanted to secretly help but didn't dare to act rashly.

"I thought that the little guy would be scared because of the Monster King, and would immediately go and prove his identity. But it turns out this is the case. I underestimated this little guy."

"Since this little guy wants to join a sect, as long as he isn't Shentu Shun, then he'll accept him. This way, he won't fall into the hands of the Demon God's Sect and give the Demon Sect an advantage."

Yin Xian had indeed underestimated Tian Ci. He thought that Tian Long had used his concern to hide his intentions. Tian Ci had already guessed what was in his mind. He just didn't want to openly offend him.

During his two months in the Hollow Jade Sect, Su He had been the one that saw Heaven's Gift the most. Su He was the only one who asked him if he was Shentu Shun, and no one ever mentioned it again.

For the past two months, he had always thought that his senior brother asking him to come to the Hollow Jade Sect was the right decision, but now that he saw through Yin Xian's intentions, for the first time, he doubted his senior brother's decision.

"Ai, I'm afraid senior did not expect such a thing to happen!"

No matter what Senior Brother did, there would always be a reason for him to do it. Since Senior Brother wanted him to come to the Hollow Jade Sect, then Senior Brother would not harm him. He would rather guess wrong than doubt Senior Brother's decision.

In order to prove that his Senior Brother's decision was correct, while he was fighting with the Monster King for wisdom and courage, he also secretly observed Su Liang and Wen Shu's attitudes.

"Uncle Su, I hope you really care about me and want to protect me!"

Wen Shu always had a cold look on her face. From beginning to end, Heaven's Gift never noticed anything out of the ordinary about her. As for Su Liang, he saw a different expression from Yin Xian's.

When he was provoked by the Demon King's words, he saw through Su Liang's worry and then forced back the Demon King, he also saw Su Liang's doubt, gratification, and praise. When he thought back to Su Liang's request for him to deny Shentu Shun's identity in front of everyone, not a single one of them didn't say that Su Liang wanted to protect him.

Although Su Liang had always wanted to protect him so that he wouldn't be able to see any flaws, he still didn't dare to easily come to a conclusion when he thought of the reason for his Senior Brother's existence.

He wanted to find out if Yin Xian and Su Liang truly cared about him or if no one cared about him. However, the person who wanted Shentu Shun wouldn't even give him time.

"Tian Ci, little friend, we also believe that you are not Shentu Shun, but business is always based on sincerity. Fellow cultivator Chi Dan's selling of information is not true, and during the transaction, many fellow cultivators accidentally lost their lives. Although this was not intentional, it was caused by this transaction."

"I hope that little friend Tian Ci will give those fellow cultivators who have died an explanation. I believe that little friend Tian Ci does not wish for those fellow cultivators to die with grievances!"

"That's right …"

Little Dan was selling fake information and blackmailing people's spirit stones. Heaven's Gift knew about this at the time, but he couldn't stop it. Since he couldn't stop it, he didn't try to stop it.

In order to survive, he had killed many animals, even though he had never killed anyone, and Little Dan was also by his side. Little Dan might have been greedy for money, but he had his limits.

He couldn't stop Little Dan from blackmailing people for spirit stones. Indeed, he needed to give them an explanation since Little Dan had truly done something wrong.

Without his spiritual consciousness, even if he was a little different from ordinary mortals, he could only sense some events that occurred within a hundred meters. During the process of gathering funds, he did not know if there had been any fights or deaths, so he hesitated to give an explanation to those who had died.

Seeing that Tian Ci refused to speak up, someone couldn't hold it in any longer.

"What this fellow said is reasonable. God bestowed upon you, that demonic beast is your spiritual pet. You must give it to those who have died!"

This man was indeed a rogue cultivator of the human race. Many people knew that his name was Li Xiong, and he cultivated in an area under the jurisdiction of the Yan Sect. A month ago, he was invited by the Hollow Jade Sect to visit the Hollow Jade Sect.

To tell the truth, the people who died in the process of raising funds had nothing to do with him.

It didn't matter if they were anxious, there were too many people who were more anxious than he was. It didn't matter if he was forced to prove himself, but there were too many people who were forced to prove themselves.

"Crap!" Little Dan hates people who call him a spirit pet the most. Anyone who dares call him a spirit pet will be met with his revenge. " When Tian Ci heard Li Xiong's words, her eyelids jumped as she thought to herself that things were not looking good.

Regardless of whether Scarlet Core was the Demon King or not, to be treated with respect by the Hollow Jade Sect had its own dignity. This Li Xiong calling it a spirit pet was clearly insulting it.

When the people who wanted to force Li Xiong further heard what Li Xiong said, they immediately went silent, especially the people who had met Chi Dan before. Their eyes were filled with sympathy, because they knew what would happen next.

"F * cking hell, you son of a b * tch! I'm not your dad! Why are you looking for trouble with me!?"

The reason why the Hollow Jade Sect could have so many people attending this year's disciple recruitment ceremony and cause such a commotion was all due to the Scarlet Pill. However, it rarely asked the Hollow Jade Sect for its contribution.

Chi Dan was very clear about the purpose of everyone's visit. Seeing that everyone was using the name of the righteous path to force the Hollow Jade Sect and also seeing that the Demon King was forcing his comrades, he had always been sitting at the side, not interfering.

However, the matter eventually arose because of it. It knew that it was impossible for the crowd to let it continue like this, and it knew that sooner or later it would be pulled in. It was already prepared, but it didn't expect anyone to call it a spirit pet.

If someone had used spirit stones to insult it, it would have tolerated it. But this Li Xiong had only insulted it with his words. Naturally, it could not swallow this insult.

If the Scarlet Core dared not do something it was unwilling to do, Li Xiong dared to humiliate it and it had to return the favor with an eye for an eye.

"You are courting death, you beast!"

After being insulted by Chi Dan, Li Xiong could not take this lying down. In terms of words, he was even more outrageous. However, this way, Chi Dan would definitely not let him off.

"F * ck, did I accidentally leave this bastard behind when I was walking in the martial arts world and peed on some grass?"

"Un, yes, that must be it!"

"Sigh, looks like I won't be able to urinate anywhere in the future!"

Chi Dan being called an animal by Li Xiong was a huge insult to Chi Dan. Everyone thought that Chi Dan would fly into a rage and attack him, but he did not do that, instead he had a puzzled expression and said to himself.

Chi Dan muttered to himself softly, but everyone had their own consciousness, so they could naturally hear him clearly. Everyone released their perception to lock onto Li Xiong, and most people unconsciously revealed sympathetic expressions.

At the moment, Li Xiong didn't care what expression people had on their faces. His eyes were completely bloodshot as he stared at Chi Dan. He wished he could eat him immediately.

"How dare you, you animal! If you see your father, why aren't you rolling over here and greeting him? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

Just when everyone thought that it would end like this, Chi Dan suddenly shouted loudly, and Li Xiong was humiliated one after another, he finally could not hold it in.

"Ah …"

"I'll kill you, you beast!"

Li Xiong was extremely angry, but he did not dare to charge forward to kill. If he did, then it would mean that he had admitted to having a father-son relationship with Chi Dan.

If Li Xiong was scolded by Chi Dan and chose to endure it silently, perhaps Chi Dan might show mercy and spare his life. However, he chose to continue insulting Chi Dan, and this was the same as asking for a scolding.

"Haha, you're your son, and I'm your father! You want to kill me? Come on, if I'm scared of you, then I'm either your father or your ancestors!"

Since Li Xiong had broken through the tribulation, no one or demon beast dared to insult him, much less any person or demon beast dared to insult him in front of everyone. Whether or not he was bestowed by the heavens or not Shentu Shun was already unimportant, in his heart, all he wanted was to kill Chi Dan, and only by killing Chi Dan, would he be able to wash away the anger in his heart and restore his reputation.

"Ah …"

"I'll kill you!"

Li Xiong made his move!

A treasured sword flew out from his storage ring. The entire treasured sword glowed with a crimson light as it flew towards Chi Dan. He also flew towards Chi Dan.

He thought that Chi Dan would fly out to fight with him, and even if the Hollow Jade Sect intervened, he also thought that someone would help him stop those people. He thought that he would succeed in killing Chi Dan, or even kill Chi Dan, and if he was lucky, he could take away Tian Ci.

Unfortunately, he failed!

He had misjudged Chi Dan's courage. Chi Dan did not even fly out to counterattack. Not only did he not fly out to counter attack, he even quickly flipped over from his chair to the back of the chair. He grabbed Tian Ci's collar, lifted her Tian Ci and hid behind Yin Xian and Su Liang.

He had also miscalculated the preparations of the Hollow Jade Sect. Yin Xian had not made a move, Su Liang had not made a move, and even no one from the Hollow Jade Sect had made a counterattack. Only Elder Zhang waved his hand, creating a barrier in front of Yin Xian to block the sharp sword.

He had also misjudged the intentions of those people who came to watch the ceremony. Indeed, almost all of them came for Shentu Shun. However, none of them were willing to offend the Hollow Jade Sect before they confirmed that the gift was from Shentu Shun.
