One pound of meat equals one attribute point.

Chapter 325: Disaster is coming, fortune and misfortune are interdependent

Although Shang Qisheng was dead, his eyes were still open, his pupils were dilated, and his face had an expression of disbelief and confusion.

Master Zhou lowered his head subconsciously.

He could see his own reflection with a look of astonishment in Shang Qisheng’s gradually dilating pupils.

"hiss……"

He just felt waves of chill running up his spine.

Shang Qisheng is a strong man at the third level of Tiangui, and he is also in the same realm.

Even with the Xianshan skills and profound background, his actual combat power is slightly stronger than Shang Qisheng, but not much different.

But now.

A master of the same realm.

Just a glance and his soul flew away, turning into a corpse.

Gan!
Wouldn't it be so scary?

He was just thinking of picking on an easy target, how could such a great god suddenly appear?

Mr. Zhou's mind was in a mess, and the speech he had prepared long ago was now completely useless.

He plucked up his courage and raised his head slightly.

After seeing Su Heng's face, Shang Mengting's previous mental journey was also repeated in Zhou Gongzi's mind.

Mr. Zhou is a man with good sense.

He even dares to kill the king of heaven, so Dao Kanshan’s background is just a joke.

"Bang!" His knees softened and he knelt down. "I am a fool and have offended you, Senior. I hope you will forgive me."

Su Heng glanced at him and said calmly, "Let someone who can speak in Daokan Mountain come to see me."

Zhou Gongzi's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he said in a trembling voice, "Yes!"

……

After Su Heng withdrew his gaze and turned away.

Master Zhou then stood up from the ground tremblingly. His knees weakened and he almost fell back to his knees. Fortunately, a fellow apprentice beside him quickly reached out and helped him up. Otherwise, Master Zhou would have been embarrassed. Of course, no one cared about this little thing now.

He glanced at Shang Mengting and said nothing.

Waved his hand.

He called his fellow junior brothers and sisters and left the hall in a daze.

When he came to a remote path outside, Mr. Zhou leaned against the wall with his head raised, breathing heavily. It was only then that he realized that his clothes were soaked.

"Who on earth is that person, and what on earth happened just now?" A young female disciple chattered, "Could it be that the Shang family elder teamed up with people from outside to play tricks on us?"

"That man is so arrogant. He doesn't take our Immortal Mountain seriously at all." Another male disciple said unhappily.

"Do you remember the disappearance of King Dingxuan?"

A male disciple with a scar on his face who looked mature and steady said, "I've seen the original footage. The mysterious man who fought with King Dingxuan was about 70% similar to the one we met in the merchant's shop just now."

"..."

The disciples were stunned at first, and then took a step back in unison.

Mr. Zhou was originally surrounded by his fellow apprentices, but now there was a large empty space around him. He looked all alone, which was very embarrassing.

"..."

Young Master Zhou wanted to curse.

In the past, whenever Master Zhou had a bite of meat, his fellow junior brothers and sisters would have a sip of soup.

Whenever this group of people encountered trouble, whether inside or outside the sect, he would be the one to clean up the mess.

Even including this shop robbery.

Master Zhou was also thinking of finding a simple and easy way for his fellow disciples to obtain resources.

The results of it?
He has some problems here.

The group of people immediately scattered and kept their distance.

He even saw expressions of gloating in the eyes of some of his fellow apprentices who had been very friendly to him in the past.

Tired heart.

Let this world be destroyed.

Master Zhou lowered his head weakly and kicked a broken brick under his feet.

"Brother." The female disciple touched her nose and asked a little embarrassedly, "You have caused a big disaster this time. What should we do next?"

"What else can be done?"

Young Master Zhou sighed, looked at the dim sunlight in the sky, and said unhappily, "Report what happened here to the elders honestly. Whether you are beaten or punished, it is all my fault, Zhou Youqi, and has nothing to do with you. Are you satisfied now?"

"Senior brother Gaoyi!" Several fellow junior brothers and sisters were immediately delighted.

……

……

……

The chief elder who led the team to Longyuan from Daokan Mountain was named Zhao, with a single character "Jue" in his given name.

In the Changyue generation, Elder Zhao was also a legendary figure.

He was born into a poor family.

In his early years, he studied and became an official. He worked diligently for decades until he was in his forties. Only then did he pass the imperial examination and gain fame.

At this time, his parents had died and he had no children, so he was left alone.

He then served as an official for twenty years.

Zhao Jue was an honest and diligent official.

He handled his subordinates' affairs very well and was deeply loved by the local people.

However, because he was too upright, he was ostracized and resigned in anger. When he left, the people lined the streets to see him off, full of grief.

He was in his forties when he passed the imperial examination, and had been an official for twenty years.

When Zhao Jue resigned from office and retired, he was almost seventy years old.

A person whose half body is buried in the ground.

If you are a normal person, you should start choosing a tomb for yourself and prepare for what will happen after your death.

But Zhao Jue refused.

At the age of sixty, he began to practice martial arts.

Everyone thought that the old man was crazy, but no one expected this.

Perhaps it was due to some strange encounter in the past, or perhaps it was due to some other reason. In the martial arts, Zhao Jue actually made a name for himself.

Every time he was about to die, he would make a breakthrough.

It took more than three hundred years.

He is now an elder of Xianshan and a famous Dharma master.

Zhao Jue was wearing a white long gown with black stripes and a dark black scarf on his head. Even though he had practiced martial arts for many years, he still dressed like a scholar. He had a thin face, a gray beard, and some subtle wrinkles on his face. He frowned slightly as he listened to Zhou Youqi's report of what had just happened.

Zhou Youqi knelt on the ground with a wooden expression on his face.

He reported the cause and process of the matter to the elders in detail without hiding anything.

The great elder Zhao Jue sat at the main seat at the long table, his face normal, not revealing his emotions. But the second elder next to him was a fat man with a bad temper and a dark face. When he heard that his disciples had caused such a big trouble, the second elder's face suddenly darkened and he was furious.

"You are incapable of doing anything but capable of causing trouble!" The second elder cursed angrily, picked up the teacup on the table and was about to throw it at Zhou Youqi.

Zhou Youqi shuddered subconsciously, his face turned slightly pale, and he didn't dare to resist at all.

"Alas!" Zhao Jue sighed softly at this time, and stretched out his hand to stop the second elder. He said to Zhou Youqi, "We already know about this matter, you can leave first. As for how to deal with it later, we will give you a reply."

"Thank you, elders!" Zhou Youqi breathed a sigh of relief.

He first kowtowed to the elders in front of him, then slowly stood up and left the room, not forgetting to close the door.

See Zhou Youqi leave.

The second elder frowned and said with some dissatisfaction, "You are too doting on these disciples of yours. It will be troublesome to deal with such a disaster."

The elder stroked his long beard, thought for a moment, and said, "It may not be a completely bad thing."

"What makes you say that?" The second elder stared with confusion on his face.

"We have previously guessed this person's identity, but we didn't know under what pretext we should visit him." The Great Elder explained, "Now Zhou Youqi has indeed had some conflicts with this person, but such conflicts are not serious, and there is room for mediation."

"We can take this opportunity to apologize and pay a visit."

"As long as the compensation gift is sincere enough, it may be possible to turn hostility into friendship and forge a good relationship."

"What the Great Elder said makes sense." The Third Elder, who had been plain-looking and silent, spoke up at this time, "However, what kind of gifts should we bring out? For a Heavenly King-level expert, ordinary stuff is really not up to par."

“A gift doesn’t have to be the most expensive, but it has to be the most appropriate and take a lot of thought.”

The Great Elder smiled.

He said to his disciples, "Bring over the information just now."

Soon the disciple brought a thick stack of books from outside and placed them on the long table in front of the great elder.

The Great Elder looked through it patiently. After a while, his brows gradually furrowed, and then a look of disbelief and shock appeared on his face.

The second elder was scratching his head while watching from the side.

He knew that his elder brother had been practicing for so long and had experienced countless matters of life and death.

Coupled with his early years of learning and cultivation, his character is very strong. He rarely shows such an inappropriate expression in front of others.

"What is recorded in this information?" The second elder became more and more curious and could not help but ask.

The Great Elder closed the thick stack of documents.

After a moment's hesitation, he said, "If the records in the data are correct, this Jiang-E number one martial artist has just broken through to the third level of Heavenly Gui, and has not even stepped into the threshold of Earthly Immortal."

"What!?" The impatient Second Elder and the more mature and steady Third Elder.

At this time, everyone had an expression as if they had seen a ghost.

"You must be kidding!" said the second elder. "The further you advance in realm, the bigger the gap becomes. To be able to defeat the Heavenly King by leaping across a major realm, is this person a human or a monster?"

"That's exactly what's written in the documentation." The Great Elder spread out his hands.

"Maybe I remembered it wrongly. It's a little too outrageous." The third elder hesitated.

"According to what Zhou Youqi said before, I think these contents should be true." The elder thought for a while and said, "Since it is the third step of Tiangui who wants to break through to the earthly immortal, then the demand for resources to improve spiritual power will definitely be great."

"Let's take out the source material that our Daokan Mountain harvested from Longyuan." The Great Elder pondered for a moment and soon came up with a plan.

“Source Essence! We paid a lot for this…” The second elder slammed the table, obviously reluctant to part with it.

But the third elder on the other side gave him a look, and coupled with the firm attitude on the face of the first elder, the second elder had no choice but to sit down again.
