Chapter 396: Xu Zhenren
As the largest casino in the territory of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the Thousand Machine Pavilion does not just look like it covers a huge area from the outside. If someone was outside the former Thousand Machines Pavilion and looked at it and felt that the area of the Thousand Machines Pavilion was huge, then after he entered the Thousand Machines Pavilion, he would find that the space inside the Thousand Machines Pavilion was much larger than he imagined!
If you want He Zhi to estimate, then it is about the difference between a basketball court and a football field.
When standing outside the Thousand Machine Pavilion, it looked like the entire Thousand Machine Pavilion was about the size of a basketball court. But after entering the Thousand Machine Pavilion, you will find that in fact, the space in the Thousand Machine Pavilion is almost the size of a football field!
In this huge space, there are people everywhere who are smuggling away with chips in their hands. Among these guests, there are men and women, and their status can also be said to range from Jindan real people to emperors and generals, and then to ordinary wealthy businessmen.
If that female cultivator was hiding in this crowd, it would be really difficult for He Zhi and the others to find her out at once.
So Jin Tianhong made a proposal, that is, he took He Zhi to find the whereabouts of the female cultivator, while Li Zhenren and Lin Yuqing were guarding the exit on the first floor.
In this way, no matter where the female cultivator was hiding in the Thousand Machine Pavilion, it was only a matter of time before they found her. Regarding Jin Tianhong's proposal, Li Zhenren and He Zhi also felt that it was a good idea.
However, just when the group was about to split up, a man with a Thousand Machine Pavilion waist card came to the group.
"A few lords are invited. Villain Shi Sheng, please say hello to a few masters. The man was quite handsome, but the smile on his face was very smooth. He came to He Zhi and his party and waved his hand.
Jin Tianhong is not unaware of the rules of Qianji Pavilion.
In fact, before breaking through to the spiritual realm retreat, Jin Tianhong had also come to the Thousand Machines Pavilion a few times. Therefore, Jin Tianhong knew very well that for these inner disciples who had heads and faces in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the services of the Thousand Machine Pavilion were very thoughtful. Especially this time, there was also Li Shouyi, a Jindan real person. It is even more impossible for Qianji Pavilion to be lazy.
When a few of them entered the door, someone from the Thousand Machine Pavilion would receive the news and send them an entourage to accompany them throughout the process.
This Shi Sheng is obviously the entourage sent by the Thousand Machine Pavilion.
If Li Zhenren and their line of work are really just to come to Qianji Pavilion for recreation, or to play two, then it is not a good choice to follow this Shi Sheng.
Generally speaking, these retinues who entertained the monks in the Thousand Machines Pavilion were all selected by thousands of people, and they were the best at observing words and feelings. They may not necessarily make you much fun, but they certainly won't upset you.
Moreover, the monk is also the most special type of guest in the Thousand Machine Pavilion. They have a high status, but many times they are a little wooden in terms of how they behave in the world. With these retinues by your side, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
However, Jin Tianhong and his entourage were not here for recreation today. Jin Tianhong was anxious to find the female cultivator He Zhi said as soon as possible, but he didn't have time to talk to the people of Qianji Pavilion, so he waved his hand to that person.
"Hmm. Are you from the Thousand Machines Pavilion? Let's just go shopping by ourselves, and we don't need you to serve you. ”
According to the rules of Qianji Pavilion, since Jin Tianhong said so, this Shi Sheng should naturally be aware of his interests and retreat by himself. But to Jin Tianhong's surprise, this Shi Sheng hadn't left after listening to his words!
"A few masters, there have been a lot of people in our Thousand Machines Pavilion in recent days. No matter what the old man wants to do, it is better to let the little one follow. Otherwise, the small ones are afraid that some people don't know how powerful they will collide with a few masters. At that time, whether it is a few masters, or our Qianji Pavilion, it will not look good. That Shi Sheng smiled and arched his hand to Jin Tianhong again.
"Huh?" Jin Tianhong frowned.
As a spiritual realm monk, Jin Tianhong also has his own arrogance. Maybe Tianji Pavilion does have a deep background in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, but no matter what the background behind Tianji Pavilion is, it is nothing in front of Jin Tianhong.
This Shi Sheng himself is not even a monk, Jin Tianhong treats him politely, and he can already be regarded as saving face for Qianji Pavilion. But he still refused to retreat, which was a bit of a shame for Jin Tianhong! No matter how nice Shi Sheng said was, his disobedience to Jin Tianhong's request was a fact in front of him!
For a spiritual realm cultivator like Jin Tianhong, it was not uncommon for an ordinary mortal to refute his words.
However, in front of He Zhi and others, Jin Tianhong still didn't want to make a fuss too ugly. Anyway, the Thousand Machines Pavilion is also the property of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and it is said that it has something to do with some of the big names of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. If Jin Tianhong makes trouble here, won't it make outsiders see a joke?
Therefore, Jin Tianhong did not lose his temper, but patiently said to Shi Sheng again: "It's not the first time I've come to Qianji Pavilion. Of course I know the rules. We're just here to hang out. Go somewhere else. We don't need you here. ”
This time, Jin Tianhong admitted that what he refused was very clear. As long as this Shi Sheng still has even a little eyesight, he should quickly pick up his tail and walk away.
But who would have thought that this Shi Sheng would not be moved! He was still standing by Jin Tianhong's side!
"A few masters, it's not that they are small, they must want to stick to a few masters. It's just that in the past few days, there have been a lot of troublemakers in our Tianji Pavilion. The little one is afraid that if a few masters wander around, it will cause trouble. So please don't let the small ones be difficult to do. If a few masters don't want the little ones to follow, it's not impossible. Then ask a few masters to tell the little ones first, where do you want to go in our Thousand Machine Pavilion. The little ones said hello to the above and asked them to make arrangements in advance for a few masters. ”
As soon as Shi Sheng's words came out, Jin Tianhong's face instantly turned cold. Even the surrounding temperature seems to have dropped by several degrees.
If the few words that Shi Sheng said to Jin Tianhong before could only be regarded as sticky and unwilling to leave, then the few words he said now are serious and do not take Jin Tianhong seriously!
"What do you mean?" Jin Tianhong looked at Shi Sheng coldly, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"The little one doesn't mean anything, it's just obeying the orders of the pavilion master. Shi Sheng arched his hand, and the waist that had been bent slightly before actually stood up.
"Huh...... Thousand Machine Pavilion Master, what a big deal!" Jin Tianhong was furious in his heart, but he couldn't help laughing, "Did he ask you to spy on us?" I really want to know who gave him such a big guts!"
When he said these few words, the spiritual coercion on Jin Tianhong's body had been released without hesitation. The astonishing soul power swept across the hall on the entire first floor, and Shi Sheng was already covered in a cold sweat almost instantly.
To be honest, even if Shi Sheng still wants to apologize and leave, Jin Tianhong doesn't plan to let him go. From the time Jin Tianhong and the others entered the Thousand Machine Pavilion, this Shi Sheng's reaction was too weird!
Jin Tianhong wanted to know what purpose he had found his group like this! You must know, normally speaking, how could a casino like Qianji Pavilion casually offend an inner disciple who had a great future in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect? Not to mention that Jin Tianhong was still followed by a Jin Dan Zhenren like Li Zhenren!
However, just as Jin Tianhong released his soul power to suppress Shi Sheng, and was about to continue to interrogate Shi Sheng, a voice suddenly came out of the Thousand Machine Pavilion.
"It's this seat!" As the voice sounded, a middle-aged monk with a white face and short hair proudly walked down the stairs on the second floor of the Thousand Machines Pavilion.
"Xu Zhenren?" Jin Tianhong glanced at the short-haired monk, and his brows couldn't help frowning again.
This Xu Zhenren himself was not considered a Jindan monk of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, so when the head of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect rang the golden bell, he was not qualified to go to the Heavenly Sword Peak to participate in the conference. However, this Xu Zhenren himself is also inextricably linked to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Although he himself did not worship under the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and he was not even considered a guest elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he had a great reputation in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
Because there are some rumors circulating in the sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, this Xu Zhenren seems to be the bloodline left by the previous head of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. The previous generation of leaders of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect achieved the Golden Pill more than three hundred years ago, and then it soared like a rocket. In more than two hundred years, he completed the cultivation from the beginning of Jindan to the Mahayana realm, and at that time he was also regarded as one of the most favored genius monks of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
Moreover, because he took little time from Jindan to the Mahayana realm and was young, according to the rules of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he took over the position of the head of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and sat for a hundred years.
It wasn't until more than thirty years ago that after the head of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect ascended to the Dao, he encountered an accident while wandering through the chaos and unfortunately fell.
Therefore, the whole of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect felt very sorry for this previous generation leader. And this Xu Zhenren was brought into the Ten Thousand Swords Sect by the previous head on the eve of the previous generation's ascension.
At that time, this Xu Zhenren was just a cultivator who had just entered the spiritual realm.
After bringing Xu Zhenren into the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the previous generation head gave him a lot of care in terms of cultivation and resources, which was even better than treating his own personal disciples. However, just when everyone thought that the previous head of the sect was planning to take Xu Zhenren as his closed disciple, the head of the previous generation suddenly let Xu Zhenren join the small Xiuzhen family under the command of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and become a guest elder!
At that time, this matter was still boiling in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and everyone didn't know what this head meant.
It wasn't until a long time later that rumors spread that this Xu Zhenren was the illegitimate son of the previous head. Therefore, the previous generation of leaders refused to accept Xu Zhenren as a disciple, but at the same time took care of him in every way, which was to make up for his debt to him.
As soon as this explanation appeared, it was quickly recognized by everyone in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Because of the practice of the previous generation of leaders, there is indeed only such a reason to explain. Moreover, neither the head nor Xu Zhenren came forward to deny this rumor, so this rumor gradually became a recognized fact.
When the previous head of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect ascended, and then unfortunately fell in the chaos, this Xu Zhenren's status in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect became more and more special.
He is not a monk of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and his cultivation is not very high, it has been almost forty or fifty years since he entered the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and his cultivation has only just broken through from the Spirit Realm to the Golden Pill. But in many big names of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, there is a face that even many Jindan real people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect can't enjoy!
Therefore, when he saw this Xu Zhenren suddenly appear, Jin Tianhong was indeed taken aback.
"Xu Zhenren. "Even as a personal disciple of Shoujing Zhenren and one of the candidates for the future true inheritance of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Jin Tianhong has to give Xu Zhenren enough face. He bowed respectfully before he said again: "Xu Zhenren, the junior really wants to know why Xu Zhenren wants to let Qianji Pavilion do such a thing. ”
"Hmph, is it necessary to explain to you that this seat is acting?" Xu Zhenren glanced at Jin Tianhong, his tone was still cold, and he looked like he didn't take the world in his eyes, "Either you let Shi Sheng follow, or you will get out of here." ”
Xu Zhenren's two sentences were indeed domineering, but Jin Tianhong's brows also wrinkled.
With Xu Zhenren's status in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he was indeed qualified to say such things. But the problem is that if he just talks about it in private, then maybe Jin Tianhong can concede three points. But in front of so many guests of Qianji Pavilion, he humiliated Jin Tianhong in public, which was a bit unbearable!
To put it bluntly, if you remove Xu Zhenren's identity as an illegitimate son who can't be said to others, he is nothing more than a guest elder of a vassal sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!
With Jin Tianhong's strength and identity, when the ordinary loose cultivator Jin Dan saw him, even if he didn't say that he was respectful, at least he should have to give three points of face!
Now Xu Zhenren treats Jin Tianhong like scolding his grandson, this is even the last bit of face removed! Even if it is for the sake of the master to keep the face of the real person, Jin Tianhong can't just endure it silently, and then turn around and leave!
Besides, no matter how big Xu Zhenren's background is, Jin Tianhong is a Sword Sect monk! As long as I feel that the truth is here, then once the temper comes up, even if you are the king of heaven, I know you, and the sword in my hand will not recognize you!
"Xu Zhenren, what if I refuse to leave?" Jin Tianhong suddenly turned cold and asked Xu Zhenren rhetorically.
"Huh...... Are you talking to me? Jin Tianhong, you are so bold!" Xu Zhenren seemed to be also angered by Jin Tianhong, put his hands in his sleeves, and sneered at him.
