C133

In front of the people of the world, he was insulted by Chi Dan. Li Xiong was unwilling to give up, so he used all of his strength to break the enchantment, but not only was he unable to break the enchantment, both he and his treasured sword were sent flying by the enchantment.

Li Xiong did his best, causing the barrier to shoot him far away before he stopped. His treasured sword was out of his control, and it almost flew out of the plaza before falling to the ground.

Therefore, Li Xiong was not injured, but he was insulted by Chi Dan, the anger assaulted his heart, and was also stopped by the barrier. His Qi and blood surged, and finally he could no longer hold it in, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Without any external attacks, the barrier was temporarily hidden.

As for the matter regarding the Heaven's Gift, the Hollow Jade Sect had promised to give an explanation to the people of the world, so they would definitely be prepared. As long as they weren't a fool, they could imagine it, so when Li Xiong took action, no one took the opportunity to fight for the Heaven's Gift.

Li Xiong insulted Chi Dan first, but the one who was injured was him. It would be more accurate to say that Chi Dan insulted him, but he was just asking to be humiliated, but after all, his reputation had been ruined, so he should receive other people's sympathy.

The Scarlet Core had ruined his reputation, but the Scarlet Core was still a guest of the Sect. He had tried to harm the Scarlet Core, and although he had been unable to do so due to the barrier that blocked his way out, in this way, he did not care about the Sect's reputation at all.

"Fellow Daoist Li Xiong, this is my sect's disciple recruitment ceremony. I am honored that you are here to witness this ceremony."

If you want to have a martial competition with Fellow Chi Dan, your sect should not have stopped it, but your sect has never before seen a precedent of using martial arts to cheer people up in previous disciple recruitment ceremonies. If you have offended me in any way, I hope that Fellow Li Xiong can forgive me!

Being humiliated by Chi Dan and unable to take revenge, Li Xiong understood that his reputation was completely ruined. Even if the Hollow Jade Sect gave him a way out, it would not be able to redeem his reputation.

There were too many cultivators who came for Shentu Shun, and there were more than a hundred cultivators with similar cultivation level. If it was confirmed that the Heaven's Gift was Shentu Shun, then it would be very difficult for him to obtain the Heaven's Gift without breaking through to the tribulation stage. Now that his reputation had been damaged, it would only be mocked and ridiculed by others if he stayed.

"Little friend Tian Ci, I hope that I will have a chance to see you again!"

Whether or not it was Shen Tu Shun, it was impossible for Li Xiong to obtain Shen Tu Shun, because he had already given up.

At this moment, he wished very much that Heaven's Gift wasn't Shentu Shun. This way, he wouldn't be able to obtain Shentu Shun, and neither could anyone else.

If not Shentu Shun, then it was possible for him to survive. Because of this, his reputation was tarnished, so he hoped that he could survive. Only by doing so would he have the chance to seek revenge on Tian Ci and Chi Dan.

"You are called Chi Dan, in my eyes, you are an animal, I hope you do not die too early!"

Once again being insulted by Li Xiong, Chi Dan was about to curse back, but was stopped by Tian Ci, Chi Dan could only give up for now, and in Li Xiong's eyes, Li Xiong thought Chi Dan was afraid of him, so he stopped scolding Chi Dan and looked at Yin Xian.

Fellow Daoist Yin Xian, many thanks for the warm hospitality extended to you by your sect. I will not forget your kindness.

If the Hollow Jade Sect hadn't intervened, Chi Dan would already be dead. Chi Dan had ruined his reputation, and he hated Chi Dan, but he hated the people of the Hollow Jade Sect even more because they had stopped him from taking revenge.

At the same time, he understood that the Hollow Jade Sect did not want to welcome him because of his reckless actions. However, they were worried that he would take revenge later on, so they gave him a way out.

The Hollow Jade Sect no longer welcomed him, and if he stayed, he wouldn't get Shentu Shun. He would also be ridiculed by everyone. Since the Hollow Jade Sect gave him a way out, then he would give the Hollow Jade Sect some face and not make himself more awkward.

Chi Dan would not let it go like this after being insulted just now. Seeing Li Xiong turn around and leave, his companion thought that this was the end.

"Bastard, don't leave. You haven't called me ancestor yet!"

Chi Dan had said that if it was afraid of Li Xiong, then it would be Li Xiong's ancestor. At this moment, he wanted Li Xiong to call him his ancestor in front of everyone; this was clearly admitting that it was afraid of Li Xiong.

"This beast must take revenge. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is best not to offend him!"

Scarlet Core was clearly afraid of Li Xiong, but when Li Xiong turned around and wanted to leave, Chi Dan once again insulted Li Xiong. This was enough to show that he was vengeful, causing everyone to be on guard.

"If there comes a day, then I will pay you back a hundred times the shame I brought to you today!"

Before he left, he actually had to be humiliated again. Li Xiong was mad with hatred, but he rationally did not turn back, because he already knew that no one would help him, he could not break the barrier of the Hollow Jade Sect, and he could not scold Chi Dan either.

He left a vow and left with deep-seated hatred. Due to his recklessness, the Hollow Jade Sect did not urge him to stay.

Li Xiong was scolded repeatedly by Little Dan. Tian Ci should have pitied him, but Li Xiong had not only insulted Little Dan, but he had also made a move on her. Before he left, he had even threatened him and Little Dan.

"This Senior Li Xiong is really pitiful. His reputation has been ruined!"

"Yeah, he shouldn't have provoked this Scarlet Core. He ruined his reputation. He deserved it!"

"That's right. I heard that Chi Dan has a bad temper. Who dares to make him unhappy? Who's unlucky enough to meet him today? The rumors are true!"

"Haha, it's more than just rumors. This old man has personally witnessed fellow cultivator Jin Lei of the Sky Cracking Sect being scolded by Chi Dan!"

"This is absolutely true. At that time, I was also present. That Jin Lei was scolded by Chi Dan. He still doesn't dare to retort!"

"That was close! I almost forced Chi Dan with Senior Li Xiong just now!"

"Fortunately, you didn't. Otherwise, you would have suffered the same fate as Senior Li Xiong!"

"With this Crimson Core here, it won't be easy to force little friend Tian Long to prove his identity!"

"Don't worry, with the seniors here, we won't have to worry about anything else!"

Li Xiong's fate was indeed pitiful, but the Scarlet Core was more so. It was not afraid of how high its cultivation was, nor how cruel its methods were, but was afraid of how its mouth could ruin one's reputation.

Not everyone was discussing the tens of thousands of high-level cultivators. Only a small portion of the people were discussing about it, and the more than a hundred tribulation stage cultivators maintained their identity and remained silent as they watched Li Xiong's humiliating departure.

The people who were discussing did not continue for long. Seeing that the seniors were silent, the sounds of discussion became increasingly quiet, until everyone became silent.

Everyone had no choice but to remain silent. Scarlet Core was a scolding beast, and was extremely sharp and unkind. With the protection of the Hollow Jade Sect, once you were scolded, you would not even be able to avenge yourself.

Everyone had no choice but to remain silent, because regardless of cultivation level or status, no one was willing to be insulted by a pig, even those with poor reputations.

After Li Xiong left, under Yin Xian's suggestion, Chi Dan returned to his seat. No one scolded him anymore, it also quieted down, and Divine Gift also returned to his seat. No one forced him to do so, so he chose to remain silent.

There was a short period of silence in the square. The atmosphere was very strange, but it did not last long. This was because the Hollow Jade Sect was also hosting the disciple recruitment ceremony, so it was impossible for Yin Xian to remain silent.

Fellow daoists, Fellow Daoist Li Xiong has an urgent matter that he has to attend to and has no choice but to leave. I have the heart to urge you to stay, but I cannot delay Fellow Daoist Li Xiong's business, if there is any Fellow Daoist who also has important matters to attend to, as long as you inform me in advance, I will not obstruct you.

These words seemed to make sense, but once they thought about Li Xiong's situation, everyone understood that Yin Xian was reminding them not to be like Li Xiong, and to not bring disgrace upon themselves.

Yin Xian continued, "Fellow daoists, you want to seek justice for those daoist friends who have lost spirit stones and those daoist friends who have died. I understand your feelings, and I believe Fellow Daoists Chi Dan will give you an explanation. Please control your emotions and don't do anything that you regret!"

This was a kind reminder. Although everyone understood, they had the same goal as Yin Xian, so they wouldn't be grateful to him. At most, they would just secretly promise him not to act until they confirmed that Shen Tu Shun was the one who gave the gift.

Everyone was still silent, but Yin Xian had already guessed what they were thinking.

"Fellow Daoist Chi Dan, you were shocked just now!"

"F * ck his grandmother, these people are f * cking bullsh * t. Just let that stinking brat take the test. Why go through so much trouble!"

Whether it was Yin Xian or everyone else, they all wanted to know whether or not Tian Ci was Shentu Shun. Chi Dan was a beast with high intelligence, not a stupid pig, so they all knew the reason why Yin Xian came looking for him.

"Haha, Fellow Yin Xian is being too courteous. This matter still has to be blamed on This King!"

Speaking of which, it was really Chi Dan's fault, Li Xiong only said the wrong words, it made a big fuss out of nothing, forcing Li Xiong to pull out his sword and admit his wrongs. Everyone wanted to forgive it, but what it said next made everyone speechless, and they just rolled their eyes, even if it was god's gift, they would still be embarrassed.

"Back in the day, This King was knowledgeable, talented, capable, young and elegant. He was also a modest gentleman, loved by all, and when flowers bloomed, he always liked to hide in the grass when he was wandering in the martial arts world. If This King had been faithful to his duty during those years, he wouldn't have involved himself in this matter."

"Dao Friend Yin, don't you think so?"

If Yin Xian gave an affirmative answer, he would offend Li Xiong who had already left; if he gave a negative answer, he would offend Chi Dan; if Yin Xian did not answer, Chi Dan would not cooperate obediently.

It was obvious that Chi Dan wanted to make things difficult for him, and how could Yin Xian not see that? In the face of such a question, he could only put forth his face and give up.

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Chi Dan has such a past. I truly admire you. Fellow Daoist Chi Dan, when you talk and laugh, I feel so ashamed!"
