Chapter eight hundred and fifty seventh shirk again
Shi Mu looked into the void in the distance, frowned, and then stopped.
At this time, Zhong Xiu and Cai'er also flew over from behind and landed next to Shi Mu.
"Brother Shi, is that black shadow eavesdropping on our conversation?" Zhong Xiu looked a little unnatural.
Her face turned red at the thought of her love talk with Shi Mu being overheard by outsiders.
"Xiu'er, don't worry yet. Cai'er, can you see that person clearly?" Shi Mu looked at Cai'er and asked.
"There is a layer of strange black light on that man's body, which can isolate my spiritual eyes." Cai'er shook her head and said.
Shi Mu nodded, remained silent for a moment, and then suddenly said: "This person is not an ordinary spy, we have met him before."
Cai'er was surprised when she heard this: "When?"
"During the Jie Feng Ceremony, we sneaked into the inner city. Didn't we see a black figure? It should be this person." Shi Mu's eyes flashed slightly and he said.
Cai'er also thought about it immediately.
"Brother Shi, what are you talking about?" Zhong Xiu looked at Cai'er, then returned to Shi Mu, and asked curiously.
Shi Mu then briefly recounted what happened before sneaking into Fengyi City.
"Who is this person? He sneaked into the Tianfeng Clan before, and now he is spying on us. Could he be from Heaven?" Zhong Xiu frowned and suddenly raised her head.
"This possibility cannot be ruled out yet." Shi Mu said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Forget it, we'll talk about this later. Let's go back to Fengyi City first." Shi Mu shook his head and stopped thinking about this and said.
Zhong Xiu nodded.
The two of them flew toward Fengyi City and soon arrived at the city.
Shi Mu originally planned to go directly to the clan leader Zhao Yin to tell him that he had awakened his bloodline, but Zhong Xiu stopped him.
"Brother Shi, I think it would be better to discuss this matter with the master first." Zhong Xiu said.
Although Zhong Xiu is a saint from the Tianfeng clan, she is still an outsider and a member of the same clan. She has no blood relationship with the rest of the Tianfeng clan.
However, her peerless appearance has already captured the hearts of many young talents from the Tianfeng clan.
In this marriage ceremony, it was Shi Mu, an unknown foreigner, and a member of the human race who got the beauty. Many people in the Tianfeng clan were extremely dissatisfied with this result.
In the past three years, she moved directly to live outside the city for Shi Mu and stayed with Shi Mu. Many people in the Tianfeng clan were dissatisfied with Shi Mu to the extreme.
Shi Mu is going to meet the clan leader now to discuss the matter of their marriage, which may cause a lot of trouble.
Although the most important thing in Zhong Xiu's heart is Shi Mu, he also has great feelings for the Tianfeng clan and does not want there to be a big conflict between Shi Mu and the Tianfeng clan.
"That's fine." Shi Mu thought about it for a moment and nodded.
The two people turned into streams of light and flew towards Zhao Linglong's residence, and soon arrived outside a main hall.
There is a plaque hanging above the main hall, with the three characters "Mingyan Palace" written on it.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed, he had sneaked in here before.
He took a step forward and was about to call out when the door of the hall suddenly opened, and a somewhat cold voice sounded, it was Zhao Linglong.
"You two come in."
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows and walked in with Zhong Xiu.
Zhao Linglong was sitting on a stone chair in the main hall, looking at the two people, as if she was not surprised at all by their appearance, and there was something strange in her eyes.
"Master." Zhong Xiu saluted Zhao Linglong.
"Elder Zhao Linglong." Shi Mu also bowed his hands.
"You have been in seclusion outside for the past three years, and your strength has made great progress. You have reached the late stage of the holy level, which is good." Zhao Linglong looked Shi Mu up and down and said.
"Elder Zhao thanks you for the reward." Shi Mu said with a very calm expression.
"Shi Mu, you seem to be a little hostile to me. Is it because of what happened back then?" Zhao Linglong asked suddenly.
"How could it be possible? I was just a lowly person back then, but I dared to be with Xiu'er, a proud girl of heaven. As an elder, you would naturally shoot me to death. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to survive." Shi Mu said calmly.
smiled.
Zhong Xiu's pretty face changed slightly, and she quickly pulled Shi Mu gently.
Zhao Linglong looked at Shi Mu quietly, not seeming to be angry because of Shi Mu's words.
"You are right. This is the law of the world. The strong can naturally decide the fate of the weak. You did not die under my Xuangang Golden Flame, so you are with Xiu'er now, so I have no objection.
" Zhao Linglong said.
"So, thank you very much for making it happen." Shi Mu said.
Zhao Linglong snorted and then asked: "Now that you two are here together, what do you want?"
With a thought in his mind, Shi Mu's whole body shone with white light, and a shadow of a giant ape appeared behind him.
"I have now awakened the bloodline of the Great Ape. According to the previous agreement, I plan to marry Xiu'er in the near future." He said.
Zhao Linglong looked at the phantom of the giant ape behind Shi Mu with a look of surprise on her face.
"I didn't expect that you would awaken the bloodline power of the giant ape clan so quickly!"
There was a trace of embarrassment in her eyes, and she said hesitantly: "This... although you have awakened the power of blood, your giant ape shadow is somewhat different from the authentic giant ape, and the aura is much weaker, so it seems incomplete.
"
"What do you mean by Elder Zhao's words?" Shi Mu frowned and asked in a deep voice.
Zhong Xiu's pretty face also changed, and there was a bad feeling in her heart.
Zhao Linglong's expression changed, and she felt a little ashamed, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "I'm sorry, Shi Mu, but you can't form a Taoist couple with Xiu'er now."
"Why is this? At the beginning, Zhao Yin, the leader of your Tianfeng clan, personally promised that as long as I awakened the power of my bloodline, I could marry Xiu'er. Do you want to go back on your promise?" Shi Mu was furious, but he tried his best to restrain himself and did not show it.
come out.
Zhong Xiu's face suddenly turned pale.
"We are not going back on our word. You are also aware of the situation outside now. Heavenly Court has assembled more and more troops on the front line. It seems that it will launch a large-scale operation in the near future. In order to deal with it, the clan has done its best and has no time to care about it.
How can I have time to hold a double cultivation ceremony for you two?" A voice sounded, and the void flashed in the ceremony, and Zhao Zhutong's figure emerged and said coldly.
Shi Mu turned to look at Zhao Zhutong, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"It's okay to just hold it briefly. Shi doesn't pay much attention to these superficial things." He said calmly.
"Hmph! How noble is the status of the Saint of our race? How can we be careless about the Double Cultivation Ceremony? What do you, a mere human race, know!" Zhao Zhutong sneered, his eyes full of disdain.
Shi Mu was furious, the red flames on his body suddenly became strong, and a terrifying aura suddenly burst out from his body.
The entire hall rumbled and trembled, the ground cracked with huge cracks, and the ground at his feet melted easily as if it were soft mud.
Shi Mu looked at Zhao Zhutong, his eyes shot out two cold lights, and the golden light on his hand flashed.
At this moment, his cultivation has advanced to the late stage of the Saint level, and he has awakened the bloodline of the giant ape. His strength has greatly improved again. If he uses the Heaven-shaking Staff, Zhao Zhutong may not be able to withstand it.
Zhao Zhutong's expression changed drastically, as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast from ancient times and would be swallowed up in one gulp the next moment.
The hairs all over his body were shocked and he couldn't help but take a step back.
"Fellow Taoist Shi Mu, please calm down. This matter is not what Elder Zhao Zhutong said." There was a flash in the sky, and a figure appeared between Shi Mu and Zhao Zhutong, but it was Zhao Zhuming.
"Brother Shi." Zhong Xiu also took Shi Mu's hand.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed and he slowly calmed down his aura.
Zhao Linglong looked at Shi Mu with an extremely shocked expression.
The momentum that burst out in that moment far surpassed hers, and was almost comparable to the power of a mid-level god.
She took a deep breath, covered up the shock in her eyes, and looked deeply at Shi Mu, feeling that she couldn't see through him no matter what.
The young man in front of him was covered in mist, and he didn't know how much strength he had hidden.
"Shi Mu, this is the place where my Tianfeng clan belongs, how dare you act wild again! Do you want to be the enemy of my Tianfeng clan!" Zhao Zhutong had just been restrained by Shi Mu, but now he realized what he was doing and shouted with a mixture of shame and anger.
Shi Mu smiled coldly, was too lazy to pay attention to this person, and looked at Zhao Zhuming.
"Fellow Taoist Shi Mu, regarding the double cultivation ceremony of you and the saint, several elders in the clan have discussed and decided to postpone it. Firstly, the people in the heaven are closed and there is really no manpower available. Secondly, the clan leader has decided to let people go in the near future.
The saint enters the secret realm of her clan to retreat and cultivate to the divine realm as soon as possible so that she can fight against the heaven." Zhao Zhuming said.
When Zhong Xiu heard this, his expression changed.
Shi Mu frowned and his eyes flickered.
"Also, I recently received news that Heaven seems to be planning to take action against the giant ape clan. I believe that under this situation, fellow Taoist Shi Mu has no intention of holding a double cultivation ceremony." Zhao Zhuming continued.
"That's right, you don't have to worry. Just wait until the current situation is dealt with, and I will immediately contact Elder Bai Pu of the Giant Ape Clan to hold a double cultivation ceremony for the two of you." Zhao Linglong also said.
Shi Mu looked at the three people in front of him and sneered in his heart.
These people have said so much, but in their opinion, they are just excuses.
The little good impression he had towards the Tianfeng clan was gone.
The Tianfeng clan has broken their promise time and again to prevent him from marrying Zhong Xiu. To put it bluntly, the fundamental reason is simply because he is a human clan.
These so-called eight ancient tribes, including the giant ape tribe, are all incorrigible people. They all believe that they are the noblest bloodline in the world and look down on other races at all.
Shi Mu didn't want to stay here for a moment and wanted to take Zhong Xiu away immediately.
It's just that he is now in the Tianfeng clan. If he turns against him at this moment, he may be able to break out of Fengyi City by himself, but he won't be able to take Zhong Xiu with him.
"Strength! I need stronger strength!" Shi Mu couldn't help but roar from the bottom of his heart.
Zhao Zhuming and the other three looked at Shi Mu without saying a word.
"Xiu'er understands what the elders said, and just follow what they said, deal with the Heavenly Court first, and hold the Double Cultivation Ceremony later." Zhong Xiu suddenly said.
"Xiu'er!" Shi Mu suddenly turned around and looked at Zhong Xiu.
"Brother Shi, our names have been decided for a long time. My heart has been with you for a long time. It's just a ceremony away. I'm here waiting for you to come back." Zhong Xiu's eyes were filled with soft light.
She took a deep look at Shi Mu, then turned around, her body turned into a red light, flew towards the outside of the hall, and quickly disappeared into the distance.
