Chapter 326: Shadow Venerable Murong Ruin
Hearing that Jiang Yu refused his invitation, the demon venerable was about to be angry, but when he saw a person falling from the sky, he saw that the person's face was like a crown of jade, and his skin was as white as snow. But in fact, this is a handsome man. He was dressed in a black and white costume and a crane. The end is majestic.
Of course, Jiang Yu, the person who came, didn't know him, and no one in Mu Yunwei knew him. But the demon venerable and the evil Di knew each other, and the arrival of this person in front of them was quite surprising to the two. The person who came was Murong Xu, one of the Seven Holy Venerables of the Shenwu Sect.
Seeing Murong Ruins coming, the demon venerable frowned, and said in his heart why did this guy come. In the eyes of the people of the Shenwu Sect, Murong Xu is a strange person, his person is very unsociable, and his style of acting is also a little strange, and even many people from the Shenwu Sect think that if there is a traitor in the Shenwu Sect one day, it must be Murong Xu. Murong Xu also seems to know that he is not popular in the Shenwu Sect, so he usually goes deep and simple, so that even in the Shenwu Sect, there are many people who have never seen him at all. Now that he's suddenly running here, how can he not be surprised.
Although they are both the Seven Holy Venerables, the Demon Venerable is the last of the Seven Holy Venerables after all, and Murong Ruins is ranked second, so in comparison, the status of the Demon Venerable is slightly inferior. Therefore, it was the Demon Venerable who bowed slightly to the Shadow Venerable Murong Xu, and Murong Xu painted a gourd in the same way and returned the salute.
The salute is polite, but as soon as the demon venerable speaks, what he says is not polite at all.
Demon Venerable said: "Lord Yingzun's eyes are above the top, and he usually disdains to be in the company of us mediocre people, but now how can he have time to come to this poor country." β
When Murong Xu heard this, he calmly responded: "The old friend is newly mourned, and he just came here to pay tribute." β
Hearing this, Demon Venerable snorted in a low voice and said, "Is that Lord Shadow Venerable going to the wrong door and wants to pay tribute, but you can go to Gu Xiuwu's mansion, now is a good time." β
When Murong Xu heard this, he didn't get angry, but smiled, and said, "My old friend is far away, I believe he doesn't mind if I go a little late." I came here, but I received the suzerain's decree. β
"Where is the Jun Decree?" Demon Zun asked, if someone next to her came to tell Demon Zun that she had received the Sect Master's Jun Decree, she would not doubt it, because if the Sect Master Jun Decree was falsely transmitted, it would be a very serious felony, and no one would dare to make this joke, except for this Murong Ruins in front of her, of course. This guy is notoriously bold and unreliable. Nothing he does will come as a surprise.
Hearing the Demon Venerable's question, Murong Xu touched his chin with his finger and said seriously: "When I went out, I seemed to have forgotten it at home. β
When the demon venerable heard this, he felt that he was being mocked, so he said, "I think you don't have a purpose at all." β
Murong Xu seemed to be in deep thought, and muttered, "Have I found the sect master's decree...... I don't remember clearly, or if the matter here is over, how about I go back and find another copy of the sect master?"
"Hmph!" Demon Venerable was furious, but he was really too lazy to bother with this Shadow Venerable, because usually the people who dealt with him did not end well, not that Shadow Venerable liked to fight, but he would be half angry with him.
Demon Venerable looked at Ying Zun and said, "I don't care if you have a military will, what are you doing here?" Demon Venerable was a little angry, and the honorific title was simply omitted, he said in his heart that this kind of person really can't be respected.
Murong Xu smiled faintly, glanced at everyone present, and finally locked his gaze on Jiang Yu's body, and said, "I want to come and see what the person who can defeat that old ghost of Wei Jianxing looks like." β
"Watch out. Demon Venerable teased in a low voice. She knew that when the people of the Shenwu Sect went to challenge Wei Jianxing in the past, Murong Ruins was among them, and the result was a big defeat.
Murong Xu naturally heard the words of the Demon Venerable clearly, and said, "It's not that I'm not open-minded enough, I'm just curious." Wei Jianxing, that old ghost, has unbelievable sword skills, and has surpassed the level of sword skills that people can use, and the people who defeated him ...... Ha ......" Murong Xu's kung fu as he spoke, glanced at Jiang Yu, and after a few glances, he said: "It's really just a person from the Spirit Water Realm, and he doesn't hide his strength, ah, it's really weird." β
"What's so strange about this?" said the Demon Venerable.
"Can an adult be knocked down by a three-year-old child with a punch?" Murong Xu asked rhetorically. In his heart, Jiang Yu's cultivation, compared with Wei Jianxing, is really no different from a three-year-old child and a burly adult.
Demon Venerable was asked a dumb mouth, Murong Xu smiled and said to Demon Venerable: "If you want to accept him under your command, I'm afraid this idea will come to naught." β
"What?" Demon Venerable frowned when he heard this, and then he heard Murong Xu's voice say: "I am ordered by the sect master to come to see the quality of this person, and if I can't, I will keep it, and if I can't, I will kill it." If you can stay, it should belong to the list of the generals of the Imperial Palace, but it is not as simple as a first-class disciple you said. β
After a while, the demon venerable who said it was stunned. When the demon venerable left the Shenwu Sect, although she knew that someone had defeated Wei Jianxing, she didn't know who had defeated Wei Jianxing, she came here just to deal with Gu Xiuwu's affairs, and after arriving here, she knew that the person who defeated Wei Jianxing was Jiang Yu, so she had the idea of recruiting Jiang Yu to her command to enhance her strength. And at this moment, she sighed in her heart that she was still too naΓ―ve, like a master like Jiang Yu, the Shenwu Sect must do its best to win it over, although her status in the Shenwu Sect is very high, but it can't compare to the sect master. The sect master has the intention to recruit her as a hall general, and become a hall general directly under the sect master of the Shenwu Sect, how can he fight. Although she was displeased, she didn't dare to say anything. After pondering for a moment, he said, "You look at it, I always think this kid is too difficult to explain." β
"That's your wrong approach. Shadow Venerable Murong Xu said with a smile.
After Murong Xu said this, he turned around and walked slowly in front of Jiang Yu, and said, "You are Jiang Yu?"
"Yes. Jiang Yu responded calmly. The person in front of him gave him a much better impression than the demon venerable just now, because in terms of attitude, he was much more humble.
"Hmm...... Why don't you want to join my Divine Martial Sect?" Murong Xu asked lightly, speaking in a tone as if chatting with his friends.
When Jiang Yu heard this, he secretly thought in his heart, this guy's origin is unknown, and his cultivation is not weak, and that demon venerable is almost the same. If you fight with them, you may not lose, but if you really fight with them, then this Muyun City will not want to stay. Living in the wilderness is not a good thing. After thinking about the pros and cons, Jiang Yu responded: "I am not a person under the command of the city lord Gu, I am just hired by him, he contributes, I contribute, that's all, if I don't have a month's salary, I can just turn around and leave, unfettered." In this case, why should I join the Divine Martial Sect?"
"So that's the case, Brother Jiang is a practical person, then I won't go around the corner, my Shenwu Sect has the intention to buy Brother Jiang for his own use, I don't know what price Brother Jiang is willing to offer. Murong Xu asked, what he said couldn't be more straightforward, simple and clear.
"Price code?" Jiang Yu heard this, and said in his heart that the Shenwu Sect could give himself what price code, he didn't lack anything, and he didn't need the Shenwu Sect to do anything for himself. Thinking of this, Jiang Yu joked: "Ha, the price, I haven't thought about it, how about you send Mu Yuncheng to me?" Jiang Yu was of course asking for a price, because he didn't want to join the Shenwu Sect at all, so he opened a condition that he thought was impossible. After all, Muyun City is such a big city, how can it be given away casually.
Hearing Jiang Yu's conditions, Demon Venerable frowned, but when Murong Xu heard this, he smiled and said, "This is not difficult. If you like, you can take office today. β
What the!
Not only Jiang Yu, but also the Demon Venerable, as well as many Mu Yunwei, all felt that this was incredible. The lord of a city, how could he be so childish and handed over to a person who had nothing to do with the Shenwu Sect like this.
Jiang Yu had still seen it, and after being surprised for a moment, he relieved himself and said to Murong Xu: "Your Excellency is not joking, or rather, does Your Excellency have this right?" Hearing Jiang Yu's question, Demon Venerable also looked at Murong Xu, because what Jiang Yu said was also what she wanted to ask. Although the Seven Holy Venerables are noble, they seem to be the city lords of overseas big cities, and they have always been appointed by the sect masters, and it is not the turn of the Seven Holy Venerables to take charge, and they have no right to appoint or dismiss candidates. Moreover, those who serve as city lords overseas must have sufficient qualifications, at least the identity of the hall master, and have joined the Shenwu Sect for at least thirty years, so that they can be qualified to be the city lord of the dominant side. But Jiang Yu didn't meet any of these requirements, and if Murong Xu dared to give Jiang Yu the position of the lord of a city, then he would probably be crazy.
When the demon venerable heard these words, he couldn't bear it, and said in his heart Murong Xu, you usually mess around with the sect master and connived at you, but you can appoint the city lord for such a big thing, you dare to go beyond the bounds and make a decision on behalf of the city lord, it is really bold, the demon venerable has already thought of the wording, and said in his heart that he will send a message to the general altar to report the matter here.
Murong Hui listened to Jiang Yu's question, smiled happily, and said, "Of course I'm not joking. Jun is here to be!" As Murong Xu spoke, he saw a wave of the sleeve of his robe, and a token appeared in his hand, shining brightly, and there was a martial character in the middle of the token.
As soon as he saw the so-called Jun Decree, it was the Demon Venerable, and he also knelt down, and those Mu Yunwei also knelt down in a large area, but Jiang Yu was still standing, after all, he felt that the token of the Shenwu Sect was my business. If I worship too, then I will have a sick head.
I heard Murong Xu say with a glance: "Send Yingzun Murong Xu to Huangzhou Muyun City to temporarily lead the city lord of Muyun City, during the consul period, you can carefully investigate and find a suitable person to be the city lord of Muyun City." β
After Murong Xu finished reciting Jun's decree, Demon Venerable stood up and looked at Murong Xu, with a secret hatred in his heart. Xin said that the sect master even sent Murong Xu, which means that there are not many idlers available in the sect, and even a city lord who is directly assigned can't be selected. Otherwise, he wouldn't let this guy Murong Xu come over and be the city lord. But this guy Murong Xu is a person who is extremely afraid of trouble, and he must be unwilling to let him come out to be the city lord. And the sect master is obviously aware of this, otherwise he would not have said in Jun Zhi to let Murong Xu find a suitable person to inherit. But the sect master probably didn't expect that this guy Murong Xu had already stepped down before he became the city lord.
