Chapter 16: Still Can't Hold On?
Luoxia Sect, Law Enforcement Hall.
On the main seat of the hall sat a man in a dark cyan robe, although he did not have a beard, he looked like he was fifty or sixty years old, and his eyes were like cold blades, revealing viciousness and ferocity.
"Are you sure you're right?"
As soon as the person sitting in the main seat asked, Shen Quan immediately saluted respectfully, "Elder Hui, I saw it with my own eyes, Qi An's own hand." ”
Hearing this, the elder looked at Qi An again, "How much strength did you exert at that time?" ”
"Back to Elder, the disciple used five points of strength at that time."
"Are you sure it's only five?"
"Yes!"
And the elder saw that Qi An's eyes were a little evasive, and he immediately became dissatisfied, "That Mu Shaoyang broke through to the eighth-rank martial king as early as January, your third-grade martial king's skill, with your temperament, only uses five points of strength to fight against it, are you a three-year-old child when you are an old man?" ”
As soon as Qi An heard that the tone was wrong, he immediately knelt on the ground, "Elder forgive sins, in fact, the disciple has already used seven or eight points of strength. ”
"Then why do you say five?"
"Elder forgiveness! The disciple was confused for a while, and he did not mean to deceive, and asked the elder to spare the disciple this time, and he would never dare to have a next time! ”
"Next time? Are you opportunistic in front of the old man, and do you expect a next time? Are you an old man, an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall? Go to the penal department and get twenty rods yourself. ”
Qi An wanted to say something, but when he saw Shen Quan hurriedly wincing, he didn't say anything more, so he had to retreat obediently.
After he left, Shen Quan took two steps forward, "Grandpa, isn't it a bit heavy for you to punish Qi An like this?" ”
"What, are you blaming grandpa?"
Seeing the old man who was sitting with a smile on his face, reaching out to take out the teacup from the tea tray, Shen Quan hurriedly lifted the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea.
"I don't blame you, I just think that Qi An is my person after all, so it won't be too harsh."
"It's because he is your person, so grandpa must maintain a majestic image, otherwise why would you not be allowed to call me grandpa but elder in front of him? It is to ensure enough majesty and grace to ensure that his heartfelt heart is the same. ”
Shen Quan's grandfather took a sip as he spoke, frowned, and asked again:
"Then Mu Shaoyang really didn't do anything, just the True Qi Barrier blocked Qi An's attack?"
"Yes Grandpa!" Shen Quan nodded, "He seems to have formed a true qi barrier very casually, and he just shook Qi An away with a wave of his hand, I always feel ......"
"What does it feel?"
"It seems that he is not using the usual internal strength!"
Shen Quan's grandfather's eyes lit up, "Isn't it the usual internal strength?" Are you saying that it wasn't the "True Fire Decision" he cultivated before, nor was it the sect's "Zixia Divine Skill Elementary Chapter"? ”
"I don't know, I just think the internal skills he used this time seem to be a little darker than usual."
"The exercises that Mu Shaoyang learned were fire attribute exercises, and before entering the sect, it was their Mu family's "True Fire Decision", but it was not the whole book, and the color was only a lighter red. After he entered the sect, he only learned the "Zixia Divine Skill Elementary Chapter" like you, and it was only the primary official level exercises, even if he comprehended all the elementary chapters, at most it would be a slightly darker light red than "True Fire Decision". Isn't what you're seeing today the light red that "Zixia Divine Skill Primary" should have? ”
"It's light red, but it seems that the color is darker than that of a few senior brothers."
Shen Quan's grandfather thought for a moment when he heard this, "Are there any other abnormalities besides this?" ”
Shen Quan thought for a while, "By the way, he also brought back a woman!" ”
"Women?"
Shen Quan nodded, "It should be that he used the Bronze Order to recruit back to the sect." ”
"It's been less than a month since he got the bronze order, and it's only been half a day since he went down the mountain half a month ago, and he came back this morning when he went down the mountain last night, why did he recruit someone to come to the sect? Could it be that we met ten years ago? ”
"That's right, grandpa, I'll just say that this Mu Shaoyang is weird, the elder of the Yanwutang still has to give him the quota of the disciple of the character guard!."
"Hmm!" Shen Quan's grandfather nodded slightly, "You find a chance to test it as soon as possible, and see how the woman he brought back is good at martial arts?" Since he used the bronze order to recruit into the sect, he must have seen it in the personnel hall, and I will ask about the situation later. If the conditions for the sect to recruit disciples are really met, it will be troublesome. ”
"Okay, grandpa, I'll go find a chance to investigate."
As soon as he turned around and was about to leave, he turned back and said, "Grandpa, I still have a ...... I don't know what you think? ”
Seeing Shen Quan's speech, his grandfather blurted out and asked, "Do you have a crush on the woman Mu Shaoyang brought back?" ”
"How do you know?"
"It's really unproductive! No wonder you keep losing to Mu Shaoyang! ”
Seeing that Shen Quan was a little depressed and dared not speak angrily, his grandfather was a little unbearable, "You are my grandson, I naturally know what you think in your heart, but this matter has to be considered in the long run." ”
Shen Quan immediately became interested when he heard this, "Then, grandpa, did you say it was possible?" ”
Looking at Shen Quan, who was a little impatient, his grandfather said with some hatred: "Why did you only see it once and fall in love with it?" ”
Seeing that Shen Quan didn't speak, his grandfather sighed, "It's hard for you, I grew up in the sect since I was a child, and now I'm in my thirties, and the women I've seen are all your elders, so it's no wonder you have such thoughts." I'll go and inquire first, and don't rush this matter. ”
Shen Quan was happy when he heard it, "Thank you, grandpa!" ”
His grandfather thought for a moment, put down the teacup, took out a jade bottle from his sleeve and put it on the table.
"What is this?"
"Qi Gathering Pill!"
"Qi Gathering Pill? Official rank pill Qi Gathering Pill? ”
"What are you yelling about, so that you are afraid that others will not hear you?"
Glancing at Shen Quan, he continued: "I got this from the medicine hall before, and it took a lot of effort to get two. You use one for yourself, and the other for Qi'an. But remember, don't talk nonsense outside. ”
"I understand, this is a Qi Gathering Pill that can improve one-grade cultivation within the realm of the Martial King, I know the severity. It's just, grandpa, why did you suddenly think to give it to us? ”
"You are my grandson of Shen Henian, who will you not give it to? As for Qi An, he has a simple background and good talent, so he can use it for himself. If Mu Shaoyang can't get the quota of the disciples of the Shouzi generation, then another quota will naturally be given to him. ”
Shen Quan smiled, "Is it the grandson who is stupid, or the grandfather who is far-sighted." ”
"Alright, don't do this. This Qi Gathering Pill can only be taken once in a lifetime, and it is best for you to take it after you have been promoted to the Eighth Rank Martial King. ”
"Okay, grandpa, this morning I have obtained the qualification for the completion assessment of the Yanwu Hall, and after passing the assessment, I will be eligible to apply for promotion to the disciple of the Shouzi generation. It's just that there are only two disciples left in the Shouzi generation, if the other one is really obtained by Mu Shaoyang, then Qi An is destined to not be able to become a disciple of the Shouzi generation, so will this Qi Gathering Pill be returned to him? ”
Shen Henian lifted the teacup and took a sip, "Give it to him, I have my own arrangements." ”
"Okay, grandpa, that grandson will step back first."
Shen Henian just nodded.
After Shen Quan left, Shen Henian said to himself: "The people behind Mu Shaoyang finally can't help it? ”
