Chapter 235: Father and Daughter Talk

The middle-aged man's tone seemed to have an inquiring tone, but Mu Hao knew that once he chose the former, this guy would not hesitate to do it. Catching up with the middle-aged man's gaze, Mu Hao smiled and said: "In the face of absolute power, resistance is just futile, anyway, the result is the same, why should I suffer all this, I choose to go with you." ”。

Mu Hao's answer was expected, but looking at the smile on his face, many people secretly smacked their tongues, doesn't this guy know what will happen to him later. The middle-aged man also glanced at Mu Hao with some surprise, and the smile on the latter's face didn't seem to be deliberately pretended. At the same time, he could faintly see a little expectation in the latter's dark eyes. After so many years of law enforcement, it is the first time that a middle-aged person has seen someone so calm.

"Let's go!" the middle-aged man glanced at Mu Hao meaningfully, then quickly turned around and retreated along the way he came. Mu Hao returned the sword to the sheath, tidied up his somewhat messy clothes a little, and followed closely with a leisurely face. Seeing Mu Hao so obedient, a touch of surprise appeared on the faces of Ji Sheng and Pang De. However, at the thought of the horror inside the Tower of Atonement, a smile appeared next to the corner of her soft mouth: "This is the price to pay for stupidity!"

Perhaps he naively thought that he would be able to come out after three days in the Tower of Atonement. Seeing that the law enforcers didn't ask much about this matter, Pound couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said in a slightly relaxed tone.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, and the disciples of the Red Void Palace on both sides looked at Mu Hao with some pity, if he hadn't been so reckless today, or had agreed to Senior Sister Xishang's invitation, he wouldn't have made such a move today. At the same time, the strength of the former is also able to occupy a place in the top ten outer gates, which can be described as a bright future. Sometimes recklessness and ignorance can ruin a person, and many disciples secretly tell themselves to take precautions.

It wasn't until Mu Hao's figure completely disappeared that the onlookers of the Chixu Palace disciples hummed, blew up, and talked about it. There is pity, there is sympathy, there is ridicule. All kinds of expressions of different emotions filled the faces of the disciples of the Red Void Palace, and the only thing that was the same was that among these people, none of them thought that Mu Hao would be able to get out of the Tower of Atonement alive.

The Tower of Atonement, the familiar name, is like a sharp sword, hanging in everyone's hearts at all times. On the first day they joined the Red Void Palace, they were told by their brothers and sisters about the horror of this Tower of Atonement. Even they had heard with their own ears a little about the Tower of Atonement, and heard that the disciples who had been escorted to the Tower of Atonement had no bones left and were buried in the bellies of all beasts. Therefore, in the eyes of the disciples of the Red Void Palace, the Tower of Atonement is the cemetery of death.

"For decades, I have personally escorted more than 100 disciples who had violated the palace law to the Tower of Atonement, and none of them could get out of the Tower of Atonement. Some of these disciples are the leaders of the palace gate, even if they were escorted to the Tower of Atonement, they had never been as calm as you!" A deep and deep voice sounded slowly, and the middle-aged man raised his eyes to look at Mu Hao, who had a calm face, and said softly, because Mu Hao was so calm, calm, that middle-aged people who were used to seeing life and death felt a little trembling.

Mu Hao looked at the corners of his clothes that shook slightly, did not raise his head, and replied softly: "Don't you also say that these people have not been able to get out of the Tower of Atonement, but I can." ”。

"You're very confident!" a rare smile of relief appeared on the middle-aged man's face, "You're like your father!"

"Do you know my father?" Mu Hao raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man with a grim face.

"Up and down the entire Central Realm, or even the entire Seven Realms of Immortal Cultivation, who doesn't know him!" The middle-aged man seemed to remember something, and suddenly fell silent. Squinting his eyes slightly, Mu Hao stared at the back of the middle-aged man, with a touch of contemplation in his eyes, "What did my father do back then, why are these people, when they mention him, they will be silent for a while." ”。

In the misty cloud peak, Shi Shuo stood with his hands in his hands, his eyes looking at the tumbling sea of clouds in front of him, as if he was recalling something.

"Huh!" A sword light as bright as a rainbow flickered in the sea of clouds, tearing through the churning clouds and mist, and the harsh sound of breaking wind gradually appeared between the rugged mountain roads. Half a bell later, a tall and arrogant woman arrived. The woman's skin is as white as snow, and the slightly cold and upturned nose bridge sets off her delicate jade face even colder.

"Why?" the woman looked at Shi Shuo coldly, and the supple green silk swayed in the breeze, looking a little dusty. It's just that the woman's voice is very cold, cold like the ice and snow on the lonely peak, which does not melt all year round, clear and piercing.

Shi Shuo turned around slowly, a doting color flashed in the depths of his indifferent eyes, looking at the woman's slightly frowning willow eyebrows, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth without smiling: "Nine layers of gods!"

"I'm not here to tell you that I have stepped into the ninth layer of the gods, but to ask you for an explanation, why? You haven't taken care of me since I was a child, and now you actually have the leisure to meddle in my affairs, and even start planning my life for me. The woman said coldly, even if it was her biological father who was standing in front of her, she did not carry any honorifics in her words, but questioned.

"Shouldn't you think about your future as a father?" Shi Shuo asked rhetorically, as if he had become accustomed to the woman's tone.

"But I have never heard of a father in this world who pushes his daughter into the fire pit and ties his daughter's fate to a waste, don't you think it's cruel?" The woman's slender willow eyebrows frowned, and her clear eyes flashed with uncompromising stubbornness.

Listening to the woman's questioning, the smile on Shi Shuo's face disappeared, and he was even extremely serious: "Wasted talent, the entire Red Void Palace can call him like this, but only you, Shi Qinghan, can't." ”

"Just because he is the son of that man, I am going to marry him? Even if he is the son of that man, it will not change the fact that because of his arrogance, he will turn himself into a waste. He first rejected your kindness to accept him as the "palace master's first apprentice", and then he didn't know how to participate in the competition for the immortal tomb and forcibly improve his strength, resulting in the formation of a primordial god in the Jindan period in advance, and his good cultivation talent was ruined by himself. ”。

"Father, you can't deny that. Do you know why I didn't participate in the battle for the fairy tomb. Because I don't want to owe him anything, I don't want to owe anyone anything, so you are not qualified to force anything from me, even if you are my nominal father for twenty years. ”。

"You also know that he and I are two people from completely different worlds, why do you want to force him into my world and let him live an ordinary life?

There was no anger on Shi Shuo's face, and after the woman finished speaking, the corners of Shi Shuo's mouth moved slightly, and he was not angry: "Because, you Shi Qinghan is my Shi Shuo's daughter!"

At this moment, a melodious and loud bell rang up, swaying up in the misty sea of clouds, and then echoed in the sky above the entire Red Void Palace. This is the ancient bell of the Red Void Palace, the punishment of the torture hall, once the ancient bell is raised, it means that someone has violated the palace rules.

The sound of the bell made Shi Shuo, for some reason, feel a little irritable, his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he was about to continue the next words, but a slightly hurried voice rose at the end of the rugged mountain road, interrupting it, "Palace Master, it's not good." A disciple from an outer sect came to inform him that Senior Brother Mu Hao had violated the palace rules and was now going to be escorted to the Tower of Atonement!"

Behind the tall and majestic vermilion wall, the cold and solemn iron towers rise from the ground, like a giant beast crawling on the ground, standing quietly in the sun. Mu Hao's gaze swept over this seemingly endless vermilion wall, and fell on the pitch-black iron tower that covered half of the sky and the morning sun.

In Hexi's sunlight, these towers reflected a faint red light, and Mu Hao knew that this tower was not black, but the blood black left after the blood coagulated.

The smell of blood fills the air, and these towers are like sharp swords, which makes people feel intimidated. It's just that it's too quiet. The afterglow of Mu Hao's eyes swept faintly around, and only the dead leaves were rolling on the quiet path.

The middle-aged man glanced down at the calm Mu Hao, the former's calmness was not deliberately disguised, even in the face of this death tomb known as the palace gate. There was no panic in his dark eyes, but some vigilance. That's because of the unknown, and instinctive vigilance, "I really can't imagine how you can be so calm, those beasts in the Tower of Atonement, but they have been starving for months, and your body and bones are not enough to stuff the teeth of those beasts." ”。

"I've been hungry for a long time, too!" Mu Hao's fair-skinned right hand gently pressed the hilt of the sword, which was originally a pair of hands that made women envious and jealous, but it had become a little rough after holding the sword for many years, but even so, it couldn't hide the whiteness on it.

Looking at the liquid formed by the sporadic Hongmeng Qi, Mu Hao was indeed hungry for a long time. Because there are four cattle people who gnaw on big households, Mu Hao, a big family, is slowly becoming overstretched. At least last night, Mu Hao didn't cultivate, and he couldn't taste the pleasure brought by cultivation. At this moment, he is like a beggar wandering the streets, about to go to a feast, and his mood is very antique.

The middle-aged man's gaze fell on Mu Hao's fair-skinned and slender right hand, and said slowly: "To be able to fight three half-step gods alone with your own strength, your strength is very good, whether it is reflexes or combat experience, it is far from these flowers in the greenhouse, which can be compared!"

"But no, I worked so hard to crawl out of hell, will I have enough to eat and play with these chicks?" Mu Hao chuckled. Looking at the grim face of the middle-aged man, Mu Hao suddenly felt that this guy was not as cold as before, at least he was more comfortable listening to these words than standing in the sun and basking in the warm morning sun.

Looking at Mu Hao's unrestrained demeanor and casual chatting with the middle-aged man, the two law enforcers who followed him showed a little surprise in their eyes. In the past, even if I was a person, when facing middle-aged people, I had a kind of depression with a boulder in my heart, and I was extremely restrained at every moment, and I didn't dare to be presumptuous.

The middle-aged man admired Mu Hao's self-confidence, and a smile rarely climbed up, this cold cheek. Looking down, Mu Hao's dark eyes said unhurriedly: "There are thousands of demon beasts in the first-level atonement tower, many of which have the existence of the god transformation stage, and often many times, demon beasts are more terrifying than people. They go berserk, without any sense, until they tear you apart with their sharp fangs, and these monsters will be quiet. ”。

Mu Hao shook his head, smiled at the middle-aged man, and said, "That's in your opinion, that's like this." In my opinion, often many times, people are more terrible than monsters. Because no matter how crazy a demon beast is, it is still a demon beast, and people are sometimes not human. ”。
