Invincible Supreme Emperor - C297
At dinner time, the sky had already darkened.
floating peak, using a dining room.
At this time, Da Shixiong Zong Yuan, Third Disciple Jiang Lu and Li Shuang’er had already gathered at the dining room. Other than the proud and aloof Pei Yu, he had not arrived yet.
Normally, the floating peak’s meals were all handled by the eldest senior brother, but today, probably because of Luo Hao’s arrival, everyone was delighted, even the normally noble and young miss Li Shuang’er came to help.
The eldest senior brother, Zong Yuan, brought plate after plate of food to the table, most of which were meat dishes.
Seeing the three of them being so busy, Luo Hao wanted to help but was rejected by everyone.
“Senior-apprentice Brother, just let me help you guys. I’m a bit embarrassed standing here.”
“Aiyo, you’re the main character today. Just leave these matters to us.”
Before Zong Yuan could reply, Third Senior Brother Jiang Lu spoke up instead.
“That’s right!” “Junior brother, the food will be ready soon. Just wait here for a moment.”
Zong Yuan laughed.
Hearing this, Luo Hao felt even more embarrassed, but he felt grateful towards the people of floating peak. After all, he had just arrived here, and they did not treat him as an outsider.
Just as Luo Hao was awkwardly standing by the side of the table and neither sitting, Pei Yu walked in and the two of them looked at each other.
Pei Yu looked at Luo Hao, and his pupils shrank a little. This movement was very small, but still saw it in the depths of his eyes.
“Hello, senior apprentice-brother.”
After staring at each other for a few seconds, Luo Hao broke the silence.
Pei Yu also did not say much, but only faintly replied with “En”.
After saying that, he walked to the table and sat down.
“Junior brother Luo’s talent seems pretty good, even calling you a genius wouldn’t be too excessive. No wonder master took the initiative and wanted to take you as his disciple.”
Pei Yu’s tone sounded like it was filled with thorns.
Amongst the disciples of the floating peak, Pei Yu’s cultivation was the highest, and he had already reached the third level of the Soul Strengthening Realm.
However, in terms of talent, he could not compare to Li Shuang’er, but Pei Yu was a martial arts fanatic, his current cultivation was completely earned from working hard, so he relied on talent and intelligence to ‘obtain’ him.
People who raised their cultivation base were the most unpleasant to the eye.
“Senior Brother, you must be joking. How could my small cultivation enter your eyes?”
Luo Hao let out a bitter laugh, but in his heart, he was thinking that I was also at the third level of the Soul Strengthening Realm, and Luo Hao was actually a lot younger than him.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yu snorted and said: “Remember, being modest is being self-righteous.”
“I will remember your teachings, senior apprentice-brother.”
Luo Hao naturally didn’t want to cause a ruckus with him, so he replied calmly right away.
Just as he finished, Zong Yuan and the other two also walked in.
“Come, come. We can start the meal when the master arrives.”
Zong Yuan laughed.
The few of them sat on the two sides of the table, and the seat at the head of the table was reserved for Wang Zhi.
“Hey, Junior Brother, what did you talk about with Second Brother just now?”
Li Shuang’er asked curiously as he puffed up his big eyes.
“Look at Second Brother’s fierce look, how could Brother Luo dare to talk to him?”
Jiang Lu replied.
“Damn! Although second senior brother isn’t good at talking, he loves me the most. I don’t like you to say that to him.”
Li Shuang’er pouted.
“Actually, Second Senior Brother is teaching me some things in cultivation.”
Seeing that Li Shuang’er and Jiang Lu were about to argue, Luo Hao quickly tried to smooth things over.
“Ai, this is not strange at all. Your Second Senior Brother is a martial arts fanatic, and is only interested in cultivation. So, if you have any questions in the future, you can ask him.”
Zong Yuan laughed, and followed up.
Although these few people had very different personalities, they grew up together and had very good relations with each other. Furthermore, there was a peacemaker, Zong Yuan, so their relationship was very harmonious.
Just as Zong Yuan finished speaking, Wang Zhi walked in from outside. At this time, a few of them stood up and called out, “Master.”
Wang Zhi: “Mhm.”
After saying that, he walked to his seat and sat down. Then, he waved his hand and said, “Eat!”
Everyone sat down, and for a moment, no one spoke. Even the Li Shuang’er who usually talked the most kept quiet.
Luo Hao naturally did not dare to say the first sentence.
“Luo Hao, are you used to being here?”
Wang Zhi suddenly said.
“Everything is fine, Master.”
Luo Hao replied respectfully.
“Yes.”
Wang Zhi nodded his head: “Oh right, Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition, five months later, how are your preparations going?”
Wang Zhi asked.
Although he did not like fighting with other bloodlines, he still valued the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition that appeared once every ten years.
“Master, we have been cultivating diligently in these few days, especially when Pei Yu has been going to the Wuliang Mountain to temper ourselves.”
Zong Yuan said.
“Yeah, Duo and Ol ‘Three need to make the best use of their time, especially Duo’er. Don’t be lazy all the time.”
looked at Pei Yu, and he did not say a word. Wang Zhi’s feelings towards this disciple of his was very complicated, on one hand, Pei Yu was the one who was the most eager to train, on the other hand, Wang Zhi was very worried, but in the end, Pei Yu was the one who was most at ease with him.
Saying that, Li Shuang’er who was initially eating stuck his tongue out.
“Pei Yu will bring Shuang’er and Ol ‘Three to Wuliang Mountain to gain some experience, but remember to never go too deep. The depths of Wuliang Mountain are incomparably dangerous, and even I don’t dare to rashly go deeper, do you understand?”
Wang Zhi’s face turned serious.
Wang Zhi’s words did not scare them. There were many spirit medicines in the Wuliang Mountain, but there were also many beasts all over the mountains, especially in the depths of the mountain range.
That year, Wang Zhi’s fate had been changed in the Wuliang Mountain, so it could be said that he knew the situation inside like the back of his hand.
Everyone replied in unison, “Understood, Master!”
For some reason, the atmosphere during the day’s dinner was especially depressed. Normally, Wang Zhi would criticize everyone during dinner, but today, his reaction was a little abnormal.
Finally, the group finished their dinner in silence. The sky was already completely dark, and a bright moon had already risen into the night sky.
The entire floating peak was pitch black and gave off a rather sinister vibe.
Under the moonlight, a person stood on a rock that was suspended above the cliff. That person’s figure was somewhat short and short. Under the reflection of the moonlight, his face could not be clearly seen.
He had his hands behind his back. Although he wasn’t tall, his waist was as straight and powerful as the edge of a cliff. His pair of black eyes stared at the dark sea of clouds in the distance, thinking about something.
“Luo Hao, do you know why I called you out here alone to talk?”
The man suddenly turned and said to Luo Hao who was behind him.
“Martial Nephew is stupid, please enlighten me, Martial Uncle.”
Luo Hao bowed and cupped his fists.
“Sun De already told me about your situation. Since you handed you over to me, I will definitely treat you as a citizen of floating peak.”
Wang Zhi looked at Luo Hao and said.
Luo Hao was stunned for a moment, and then said from the bottom of his heart: “Thank you, Junior Master.”
“Don’t be so anxious to thank me. Since you have come to floating peak, your every word and action will affect the reputation of the floating peak. You must abide by the rules of my floating peak. Is it possible that you can do it?”
“Yes, I will not let down Martial Uncle’s expectations in the future.”
The surroundings were completely silent, the moonlight was like water, sprinkling onto Wang Zhi and Luo Hao who were on the rocks.
Suddenly, Wang Zhi sighed, he turned and looked into the distance, and said softly: “I know what Sun De is thinking.”
“Luo Hao, you should be clear about Sun De’s good intentions, after all these years, he has been unable to break through the barrier of Soul-Breaking Realm, he knew that he had no idea whether he was going into closed-door cultivation to break through Soul-Breaking Realm, and could not stop himself from worrying about you, so he told me about you. I have some sort of relationship with him, so naturally I will help him, but you must understand that the help I can give you is limited, and that you have to depend on yourself for everything.”
“Master has always treated me like family. I definitely won’t let him down.”
Luo Hao paused for a moment before asking, “But Junior Master, is Master really in danger?”
Wang Zhi coldly snorted, and said: “Do you think breaking through Soul-Breaking Realm is so easy? Once he breaks through to this realm, he cannot have any distracting thoughts in his heart, otherwise, his soul will be destroyed during his breakthrough, so this trial will be very difficult for martial artists. How can he let go of the miscellaneous matters of the mortal world so easily, Sun De has not been able to break through for so many years and already has a heart attack, so he knows that he will most likely die, but this is his wish for so many years, he has no choice but to do it. ”
Finished speaking, Luo Hao’s body trembled, he thought that this matter was too simple, and thinking of what Wang Zhi said, Luo Hao’s eyes became gloomy.
“It should be fine.”
Luo Hao muttered.
“Sun De said that you want to participate in this time’s Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition?”
Wang Zhi asked with his back still facing Luo Hao.
“Yes, since this is a grand occasion that happens once every ten years in Solitary Howling Sect, I naturally do not want to miss it.”
Luo Hao lifted his head, and the moonlight shone into his clear eyes.
“Then do you know that only the disciples of seven meridians can participate in the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition?”
“I know.”
Luo Hao was sorrowful.
“Then you still refuse to acknowledge me as your master?”
Wang Zhi turned and asked with a questioning tone.
Luo Hao looked into Wang Zhi’s eyes, and then lowered his head and said: “Junior Master is sorry, I …”
“Sun De did not see the wrong person. Whatever, I will let you go to Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition.”
Luo Hao was interrupted before he could finish speaking. Wang Zhi was not angry as Luo Hao had expected, he did not seem to care at all.
“Thank you, Uncle-Master.”
Luo Hao said respectfully.
Wang Zhi slightly nodded, and said: “I have examined your aptitude, and after going through the deathly dark pool, your physique has improved by a lot. However, even with my cultivation, I am still unable to see through your trump card.
Luo Hao was startled. There were indeed a lot of secrets on his body, and regardless of whether it was the dragon vein, the Heaven Swallowing Martial Spirit, or his Heaven Swallowing Sword, every single one of them were enough to make people jealous. But after this incident, he definitely would not be like before, so he immediately nodded and said: “I will remember Junior Master’s teachings.”
