In the darkness of the night.
The expressions on the faces of those present and those lurking in the shadows, watching the spectacle, were simply stunning.
Yes, even more stunning than when they just discovered that Chu Mo was actually a congenital expert.
Who did they see now?
The head of Lonely City!
What kind of place is Lonely City?
Chu Mo, who once trekked through thousands of miles of ice fields full of devotion, hoping to go to Longevity Heaven to find a master, regarded Longevity Heaven much the same way these sect members regarded Lonely City.
Like a land of immortals!
Just as insurmountable!
Don't be fooled by the restraint these sect members show now. They may seem unrestrained in front of the Four Great Sects. But who knew how they reacted when the Four Great Sects initially issued the order to attend this sect conference?
That feeling was like an emperor of the mortal world suddenly announcing that he was going to a Beggars Clan event!
That exaggerated!
But now, that high and mighty "emperor" was actually being scolded to his face by an ordinary beggar!
What was going on?
Could there be anything more exaggerated than this?
Chu Han too was scolded into a state of shock. He was not unaware of who the young man before him was. In fact, he had had designs on Chu Mo.
Because from various indications, this young man's master, was not from this world at all. He was likely a cultivator from the upper world.
Chu Han was aware of cultivators because in Lonely City, some of his predecessors had successfully ascended to the upper world and through various means, sent back some news.
Although the news wasn't much, and only fragments, it didn't prevent the people of Lonely City from gaining some understanding of the Upper World.
But in the end, Chu Han still didn't act rashly.
He was afraid!
The higher the level of cultivation, the greater the reverence for the upper world.
He was afraid that this young man's master would leave him with some trump cards. Once he made a move, the two sides would inevitably become enemies. By that time, it would be difficult to rectify the situation.
So all along, Lonely City made no move. However, what was meant to happen still happened inevitably.
They ended up in a confrontation with this young man from Lonely City.
Indeed, within just a few years, the ordinary youngster of yesteryears had grown into a congenital expert of the same realm as them. Moreover, judging by his aura, he was even nearing the peak of the congenital stage!
Having a powerful being from the upper world as a master and reaching the peak realm in the mortal world made him an adversary that even Chu Han did not wish to make an enemy of.
"Young man, don't you think you've gone a bit too far?" Chu Han was furious, but he did not lose his composure.
He was the head of Lonely City. Even if he had to grit his teeth, he couldn't show weakness and let people look down on Lonely City.
However, his words seemed like a sign of weakness to many people.
"They want to kill my friend." Chu Mo spoke calmly: "Your men also said they wouldn't rest until they have me dead."
Qin Xiao's face turned ugly, he glared at Chu Mo angrily.
Chu Han frowned at the fifteen corpses on the ground, deep in thought.
In fact, the legend of Central Divine Island wasn't as important to him as the Ruins!
As Chu Han pondered, the people from Lonely City who were beside Qin Xiao felt a chill in their hearts.
What was there to contemplate in this situation? They should just start fighting!
Lone City Sword, Beyond Heaven Immortal, being the strongest sects in the world of martial arts and looking down on all beings, when have they ever been bullied like this? If they can't vent out their anger today, then needless to say, the reputation of Lonely City in the world will undoubtedly be ruined!
The world of martial arts is ruthless, it doesn't care about your reasons, nor does it care who your opponent is.
You have simply lost.
That's just how it is!
Important people and those in power always consider gains and losses first, not face.
Chu Mo naturally saw Chu Han's dilemma and was also making rapid calculations in his mind.
Although he was not afraid of these people from Lonely City, even had the strength to crush them, some things were not that clear cut.
If Lonely City were to rally all its elites, then he alone... couldn't confidently suppress them.
Back when he challenged Beyond Heaven, although Chu Mo spoke confidently, he also felt a bit apprehensive inside.
If a force of this level disregards its dignity and swarms him, besides pulling Dong Yu and Qin Shi to his side, he may have a chance of resisting, otherwise, his only choice would be to flee.
In the mortal world, although he was extremely powerful, not everyone was a pushover.
"About this matter..." Chu Han frowned for a long time, finally looking at Chu Mo.
"How about we talk it out?" Chu Mo didn't wait for Chu Han to finish, but directly spoke up.
In fact, both of them were about to speak at the same time.
"Let's talk." Chu Han unexpectedly nodded.
"Head!" Qin Xiao, who initially thought that their head had arrived and was about to effortlessly exterminate this damned kid, was stunned. His face fell and he looked at Chu Han with a look of resentment.
"Step back." In the face of Chu Mo, it was one mindset, but in front of others, Chu Han's aura was enough to make one tremble.
Seeing this, Chu Mo gave a small smile, extending a hand and said: "Please come in."
Chu Han nodded, turning back to Qin Xiao, he said: "Gu Yu, take them... all and give them a proper burial. Take them back to Lonely City and give them a good funeral."
From the beginning to the end, the head of Lonely City didn't show any strong emotions.
In the room.
"Your actions have put me in a difficult position," Chu Han looked at Chu Mo. "We share the same surname Chu, don't look at me like that. I'm not trying to associate myself with you, but I want you to know that I never thought of opposing you."
Chu Mo raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised. In his view, if the other party accused him of murder, it would be normal. But what did these words mean? Was he admitting defeat?
Chu Mo didn't feel he had that much deterrent power. Although he had released his aura as a congenital expert, the number of congenital experts in the other party's sect was definitely more than he could imagine. There was no reason for them to show weakness in front of him.
Therefore, Chu Mo listened quietly without interrupting.
"To be honest, it was somewhat improper of us, the Four Great Sects, in this matter. It was indeed a bit unfair to you," Chu Han looked at Chu Mo sincerely, saying: "Because we know a lot more than those in the other sects in the martial arts world."
He paused, looking at Chu Mo, he slowly said: "Everyone says that it's become increasingly difficult to ascend to the spirit realm, but in fact, it's not just because the cultivation methods of those sects are flawed."
Chu Mo frowned slightly. He agreed with Chu Han's words.
There was no lack of talent in the mortal world!
For instance, Fan Lizhi. Although Chu Mo greatly disliked the sneakiness of the kid, he had to admit that, to some extent, Fan Lizhi's talent wasn't inferior to many people he had met in the Phantom God Realm.
But why was it becoming more difficult for warriors in this world to ascend to the spirit realm?
Chu Han continued: "There is also a very important reason, which actually relates to the Ruins." (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
