Mu Yi was not surprised by Situ Wenjing's words. He had even expected it. Otherwise, given his identity, he would not have been able to rush to visit him after learning about his conflict with the temple.
However, he has no interest in the so-called cooperation. He came to Yongzhou just to see the so-called ancestral city and experience it. The temple is just a little trouble for him. As long as the Eight Great
If the elder does not come out, he believes that the temple will never be able to stop him. With his current strength reaching the seventh heaven, unless a strong man above the eighth heaven takes action, there will be no way to cause any harm to him.
Even if you really want to avoid future troubles, you must at least have a strong man from the Nine Heavens to take action. However, apart from the eight elders, it is almost impossible for the human race to find one or two Nine Heavens.
Moreover, the eight elders of the human race, even the semi-saints, would not be so unwise, so he was not worried about anything. As the saying goes, one can be strong without desire, which is what he was like at this time.
"Thank you City Lord Situ for your kindness, but I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Yongzhou for long."
Mu Yi shook his head, but he could clearly see the surprise in Situ Wenjing's eyes. Obviously, the other party did not expect that he would refuse. After all, from Situ Wenjing's standpoint, the person he had just offended could be said to cover the sky with one hand in the human race.
The temple was facing trouble and needed help, but Mu Yi still refused without hesitation. Did he think that everything would be fine if he left Yongzhou?
"No one has dared to challenge the majesty of the temple for many years, so even if you want to save face, you and the temple are destined to be incompatible." Situ Wenjing said calmly.
"So what? If the temple dares to stretch out its claws, just chop them off." Mu Yi said casually.
And Situ Wenjing was already a little dumbfounded, chop it off? He was young and ignorant, or did he think he was strong enough to overwhelm the temple? Even he did not dare to say such things. After all, there must be a reason why the temple could always be superior.
Situ Wenjing even had the urge to turn around and leave. He wanted to see how Mu Yi dealt with the troubles in the temple. However, at his level, he had long since lost his impulse. With such a rare opportunity, he
He must win over Mu Yi to his side, so that he can gain the upper hand.
"How about an opportunity to meet the human half-saint and get some advice?" Suddenly, Situ Wenjing said.
"What?" Mu Yi suddenly raised his head and looked at Situ Wenjing, almost thinking that he was joking. He knew very well what the human half-saint meant. It was almost the human's sea-fixing needle, a more mysterious existence than the eight elders.
In the abandoned land, the half-saint can even be called an invincible strong man. To a certain extent, the half-saint can turn death into life. This was the case with the mummy he encountered in the immortal tomb.
Buried for countless years, he is still walking on the road to resurrection, and he is even almost successful.
Even among the two demon and ghost clans, this kind of semi-saint is an unborn old monster who can suppress the fate of a clan, so you can imagine what the semi-saint represents.
Therefore, when Situ Wenjing mentioned the opportunity to meet the human half-saint, Mu Yi's first reaction was that it was impossible. But then, he understood that Situ Wenjing could not lie about this, otherwise he would be completely offended, and some
Even if the matter deceived him for a while, as long as he inquired carefully, with his current status, he would definitely know the truth.
Mu Yi didn't say anything, he just looked at Situ Wenjing, but he was unconvinced that he was tempted.
If it were just an ordinary strong man, even the eight elders of the human race, or even a giant existence, he would not be like this. After all, it would not take him long to reach this step, but as a half-saint, he lacks confidence. If he can
Meeting the Half-Saint in person and even getting some guidance will definitely give him a huge boost in his future, making the path ahead of him clearer.
"Each generation in the temple will have two Holy Sons. After careful training, after reaching a certain level, they will participate in some kind of trial. The winner will be the true Holy Son and can receive guidance from the Semi-Saint." Situ Wenjing said.
He couldn't help but pause for a moment, with a flash of bitterness in his eyes, and Mu Yi couldn't help but think of what Jian Jiu had said to him. Situ Wenjing was the Holy Son of the Human Race back then, but later he disappeared for some unknown reason.
time, and exit the temple.
Come to think of it, Situ Wenjing lost that competition.
However, being able to become the Holy Son itself proves his excellence, so even if he loses, with his strength, becoming the lord of Yongzhou City is not a problem.
"As long as the Holy Son wins, he will have a new identity. The deputy master of the temple is also a quasi-elder of the human race."
"The human race has always had eight elders. It's not that no one has become a heavenly being for so many years, but for some reason, the human race can only have eight elders. Unless one of them dies or abdicates, these quasi-elders will take over.
, the number is still only eight."
"It is rumored that if you want to become a half-saint, you must first become an elder."
After Situ Wenjing said the last sentence, he fell into silence.
"If you want to become a semi-saint, you must first become an elder?" Mu Yi frowned, but he didn't believe it all. After all, he was different from others. He possessed the Nine Transformations Golden Body Art and already had a road to the sky in front of him.
, just go step by step.
Even if there are any bottlenecks between heavenly beings and semi-saints, or secrets that he doesn't know about, he believes that he will be able to overcome them with his own strength. Therefore, he doesn't have much thought about the position of elder, but after meeting
The opportunity of the semi-saint is what he needs. The meanings of the two are completely different to him.
Of course, it was impossible for Mu Yi to tell Situ Wenjing these things.
"I'm not interested in becoming a Holy Son, nor do I want to take over the position of the Eight Elders. I just want to know how to get an audience with the Semi-Saint?" Mu Yi said directly. He believed that since Situ Wenjing said this, he must have
his plan.
"Don't want to become a Holy Son?" Situ Wenjing didn't seem too surprised, but continued: "In half a year, there will be a duel between this generation of Holy Sons. As long as you can successfully challenge one of the Holy Sons, you can participate in the trial.
, if you can win the trial, you can be received by the Semi-Saint. This is also a path left for people outside the temple, but no one has ever succeeded."
There was a hint of sarcasm clearly on Situ Wenjing's face. The so-called leaving a way outside the temple was just a means. The real geniuses of the human race had always been trapped by the temple early. Without the cultivation of the temple, how could they step out of the temple?
A heavenly being? Even if you have all the qualifications and opportunities, and you are lucky enough to enter a heavenly being, there is still a big gap between you and the saintly son carefully cultivated by the temple.
So that road had actually been closed long ago. Now that Situ Wenjing said it, it was also a test. Only Mu Yi who had truly passed it would be qualified to cooperate with him.
"Okay." Mu Yi nodded without hesitation. He didn't care about the Holy Son or the Elder, because he had a trump card that outsiders didn't know, but when faced with the guidance of the Half-Saint, he couldn't remain indifferent. This
He must fight for the opportunity. Only in this way can he progress faster.
"Well, before that, I will take care of the temple's troubles for you. You just need to prepare for the challenge in half a year with peace of mind." Situ Wenjing said, since we are cooperating, we naturally have to invest first, even though Saint
The palace's troubles would be difficult, but with his status, it would be no problem to buy Mu Yi half a year.
"No need, I said before that if the temple dares to reach out, I will chop off their claws." Mu Yi rejected Situ Wenjing's kindness. With his strength, he did not need to use any means at all, and he acted openly and honestly.
Can.
As long as the eight elders of the human race do not take action, he is not afraid of any challenge. The trouble in the temple can be regarded as a warm-up in half a year. After all, escaping has never been his character, and he is not willing to owe Situ Wenjing for this.
.
Through this brief meeting, he had already seen that Situ Wenjing was a very ambitious person. Otherwise, after the failure in the fight for the Holy Son, it would be more likely that he would retire and continue to practice, rather than become the city lord and fight for power.
"In that case, I'll wait and see." Situ Wenjing took a deep look at Mu Yi, and then showed a smile, showing no trace of annoyance at being rejected.
Situ Wenjing believed that being able to become a heavenly being might involve luck, but there would definitely be no fools. Since Mu Yi dared to say so, he must be certain, so he couldn't help but look forward to Mu Yi even more, and since he didn't need him
If he takes action, then he can watch a good show.
"Sir, what should we do next?"
After Situ Wenjing left, Jian Jiu looked at Mu Yi with some worry and asked, although Mu Yi was already a heavenly being, in his eyes, Situ Wenjing's status was obviously higher, the lord of the human race's ancestral city.
This is not something you can get by just having strength.
Especially after knowing that Situ Wenjing had been a heavenly being for a long time, the worry in his heart became even stronger. Only at this time did he realize how shallow his previous knowledge was, and that the water of the human race was far deeper than he imagined.
There are so many, from here to there, how can the high and lofty temple be simple?
"Naturally, just do whatever you have to do." Mu Yi was unmoved, and there wasn't even the slightest worry on his face. Seeing Mu Yi like this, Jian Jiu could only suppress the worry in his heart for the time being, but he didn't regret it at all.
, or the idea of escape.
That night, Jian Jiu was still guarding the yard. When he came to Pseudo Heaven, sleep was no longer important, even dispensable. When he first embarked on the path of sword cultivation, what kind of suffering did Jian Jiu not suffer? So now
This kind of waiter career is nothing to him, and he consciously protects it here.
However, Jian Jiu did not notice that a faint shadow swayed slightly in the darkness.
(Well, I’m too lazy to scroll forward. Who remembers how many semi-saints there are in the human race? Remember to tell me in the book review area. Ahem, it’s really embarrassing. Besides, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Thank you all for your support over the past year, which has made Tiancu achieve good results.
