"Middle-grade spiritual weapon?"

Xie Bisheng said coldly, "I thought you were so generous, but it turns out you are only giving a mid-grade spiritual weapon to your disciple who will inherit your legacy. How can you be so embarrassed to ask for a mere mid-grade spiritual weapon?"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, looked at Gu Zheng, and said in a deep voice, "Gu Ping'an, take me as your master. I will give you a fourth-level precious pill, which will help you complete the transition to the super-body diamond stage as quickly as possible and lay the most solid foundation."

"I will also teach you the "Ashura Questioning Heaven Slash" that I created, a semi-unparalleled true skill, and a top-grade spiritual weapon. It can be a knife or a sword. You can choose it!"

"Wow, what a generous reward! Thank you, old man! Stop fooling around!"

Meng Taiqi shouted angrily, "Your "Ashura Questioning Heaven Slash" is not yet completely finished, why didn't you tell me? The fourth-level body-shaping pill is still in the queue, and I don't know when I can get it. Why didn't you tell me?"

"The last top-grade spiritual weapon, haha, your top-grade spiritual weapon has been recycled. I don't know if it can still retain its top-grade spirituality after being remade!"

"Gu Ping'an, Mr. Xie loves to make promises to others, you must not be fooled."

"I..." Gu Zheng blinked and wanted to ask what happened.

Xie Bisheng spoke again, and shouted coldly, "I'm making a big promise? My promise already exists. It will take some time to get it. There's no need to make a promise at all. But you, with your big nose and stingy face, made a mid-grade spiritual weapon. Who are you looking down on?"

"Who is being stingy? Old Xie, please watch your words!"

Meng Taiqi's face turned red, and he said in a low voice, "I can get my mid-grade spiritual weapon right away, unlike you, who still needs to wait! Besides, do you think I can't create my own true skill? Let me tell you, I also have a true skill that will be released soon."

"Okay, tell me about it and let everyone verify it. What's going on with your real skills?" Xie Bisheng responded coldly.

"What's going on? Do you think I am you? I haven't even accomplished my goal yet, but I'm already shouting about it everywhere, as if I'm afraid everyone doesn't know."

"That's better than you. If you hide it secretly, who knows if you are just fooling around?"

"..."

The two men, who were of distinguished status and superior position, were also the most powerful demon-slaying generals in the whole Fengzhou. In front of everyone on the Foundry Street, they kept quarreling with each other for a disciple.

Everyone was stunned!
At the same time of shock and astonishment, everyone could not help but shift their gazes to the person involved, Gu Zheng, with doubt, confusion, envy, jealousy...

Little did he know that Gu Zheng himself was also confused at this moment.

Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng are from Fengzhou Demon Slaying Division. They are two of the four great demon slaying generals besides the commander-in-chief, and they are in the realm of heroic body.

The other two demon-slaying generals were out on missions to guard the north.

When the commander-in-chief is not at the headquarters, Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng are the highest-ranking people in the Demon Slaying Division.

Any decision should be made by discussion between the two of them.

These two people are usually elusive and you can't see them at all.

Now, they appeared together in the Weapon Foundry, pulling Gu Zheng aside and asking to become his disciples.

If Gu Zheng said he wasn't moved, he would be lying.

But there was something obviously odd about this.

He was a man of great talent, and he relied on cheats to enter the Demon Slaying Division. After only two missions, he was promoted to the rank of centurion.

However, there are many people in the Demon Slaying Division who have reached the super-physical realm, and there are quite a few young ones as well.

Why did Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng take a fancy to him?

Fighting and coaxing him to be your disciple?

Just because Gu Zhenggang eliminated the demons in Jinshan Temple and lifted the siege of the state capital?
Not realistic!
There must be something wrong with the reason why Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng snatched him and accepted him as their apprentice.

This key problem came from Gu Zheng, but Gu Zheng himself didn't know it or didn't realize it?
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng fell into deep thought.

'The equipment's capabilities were discovered? Unlikely.'

'The added ability is even less likely to be discovered.'

"The Blue King bloodline triggered by the bronze elephant body? Was my fake Blue King body taken seriously?"

"Or is it Fat Tiger? The little fat cat has a great background?"

Gu Zheng pondered.

Ke Juzhen, who was standing by, reached out and poked Gu Zheng at the right time, and whispered, "Which one are you going to choose?"

Ke Juzhen was also shocked just now, but now he regained his composure and reminded, "You must think it over carefully."

What to consider?
The natural thing is to become a disciple of one of them, which will inevitably disgust the other one.

But Gu Zheng didn't want to do this.

These are two great demon-slaying generals, so I have to be tactful in rejecting them.

The brain is working quickly, thinking of countermeasures.

Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng stopped arguing with each other and their eyes fell on Gu Zheng.

"Gu Ping'an, who do you want to be your master?"

"Ping An, who do you like more?"

Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng spoke almost in unison.

Leave the decision-making power to Gu Zheng.

"This..." Gu Zheng turned his eyes and bowed, "Teachers, Ping An likes both of them very much."

"Hmm?" Xie Bisheng raised his eyebrows.

"Ha!" Montaqi laughed out loud, "Well, you are still smart!"

Hearing this, Ke Juzhen, who was standing nearby, was confused at first, then suddenly realized and gave Gu Zheng a thumbs up.

teacher!

Not a master, just a teacher.

A difference of one word can lead to a huge difference in treatment, but it also connects people together in terms of identity.

Gu Zheng’s meaning was very simple. He was willing to serve under the two demon-slaying generals, just like those students who respected a civil servant as their teacher.

This way, both sides have room to maneuver.

The identity of a student, at the very least, is that of an ordinary teacher or student who accepts tuition fees, and cannot even be considered a member of a faction.

Furthermore, one can become a formal disciple and a core disciple who inherits the mantle.

In a word, Gu Zheng returned the decision-making power to Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng.

Whether they are ordinary teacher and student or formal disciples is decided by the two of them!

If it is the former, then it doesn't matter. It's just two ordinary gifts, which Gu Zheng can afford.

If it is the latter, Gu Zheng will also make a profit.

Even if we put aside the gifts, these two powerful men in the Heroic Body Realm suddenly have two more backers!
"..."

Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng, however, fell silent.

Look at each other.

Meng Taiqi spoke first, "I'm ashamed. We were so abrupt in this matter. We were so excited that we disturbed you, Ping An. So, it's not convenient today. Tomorrow night, we will go to your place and talk to you in detail. How about you make a decision then?"

"One word." Xie Bisheng said, "I won't embarrass you."

"Correct."

Meng Taiqi nodded, and then, without opening his mouth, his voice rang in Gu Zheng's mind, "Don't worry, this will be of great benefit to you if you agree."

"it is good."

Gu Zheng nodded, bowed and watched the two people leave.

After Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng walked away, they disappeared.

The street, which had been silent for half a day, finally became lively again. Pedestrians walked by and looked at Gu Zheng with curiosity and exploration in their eyes.

Gu Zheng ignored him and followed Ke Juzhen back to the forging room. "Hey, Ping An, you are soaring to the sky. Two demon-slaying generals are vying to be your master."

Ke Juzhen smiled strangely, with a gleam in his little eyes.

"Master Ke, do you think this is normal?" Gu Zheng asked directly.

"…It's normal, but it's a little unusual."

Ke Juzhen blinked, "But this matter will definitely do more good than harm to you."

"That depends on what it is." Gu Zheng said calmly, "I don't think I can solve a problem that can make the demon slayer general helpless and need help from others."

"you……"

Ke Juzhen paused for a moment, then laughed out loud, "It's not good for you to be too clear-headed. There is no such thing as a muddled life."

"I just don't believe that pie will fall from the sky for no reason." Gu Zheng smiled.

Apart from your parents who gave birth to you and raised you, who else would treat you wholeheartedly without asking for anything in return?
How could it be possible that people like Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng, who were already big shots more than two hundred years ago, could rush over and compete to become Gu Zheng's master just after hearing about Gu Zheng's age and realm and the good deeds he had done?

There must be something behind this!
Fortunately, the two had no ill intentions. After being reminded by Gu Zheng, they realized the problem and decided to discuss it in detail tomorrow night.

To be honest, Gu Zheng was still very curious.

What exactly happened that made Meng Taiqi and Xie Bisheng, the two great demon-slaying generals, disregard their own reputation and get involved?

……

……

Luozhou.

Datong Mansion.

boom! !

There was a loud bang that shocked the world.

At the top of a thousand-meter-high mountain, the void suddenly exploded, and large areas of space were distorted.

The originally dim sky quickly faded under the pull of this chaotic energy.

Thunder streaked across the sky, making a deafening sound and illuminating the sky and the ground.

Huh~huh~huh!
The howling wind blew across the mountains, bending rows of large trees and lifting up countless broken wood, weeds, soil and gravel, which flew into the air.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

In this doomsday-like scene, one figure after another broke through the air at high speed, rushing out from the thousand-meter-high mountain, one after another, and constantly moving away from the peak.

swoosh~
Xiao Dutian and Dugu Feixue, along with several figures, flew into the air and flew hundreds of meters in one breath. They stopped on a piece of empty wasteland and then took a break to calm their breath.

"Damn Demon Slayer, damn Zuo Lingfeng!"

A slender, lean and capable man with a dark face shouted angrily, "It's only been five days since the field was opened, and he is already eager to destroy the key point of the rule array and eliminate it in advance. Why doesn't he just die? Why did he go into the field and not take advantage of the benefits he has obtained?"

"Didn't you just say that they entered the field not for the source fruit or the rare items, but to destroy the core of the rule formation?"

A 30-year-old man with a resolute temperament and sharp features said in a deep voice, "Most people in the Demon Slayer Division joined for the benefits, but a small number of them are stupid because of reading too much. They are so stubborn that they want to serve the country and the people without caring about themselves. To be honest, I still admire these people."

"What admiration! These guys should all die!" The thin man cursed, "I don't believe there are many people like Zuo Lingfeng in the Demon Slaying Division."

"There is also one in Fengzhou." Dugu Feixue interrupted.

"Ok?"

The sturdy man turned his head to look at Dugu Feixue after hearing this, and asked in surprise, "Dugu Feixue, are you serious? There is one in Fengzhou too? What's its name?"

"My name is Gu Zheng."

Xiao Dutian answered quickly, "In terms of behavior, he is similar to Zuo Lingfeng, but he is very humble, not as arrogant as Zuo Lingfeng. His strength is also in the super physical realm, and he just broke through. In terms of age, he is one or two years younger than Zuo Lingfeng."

"Tsk, the Zhong family is amazing."

After hearing this, the sturdy man sighed with emotion, "Although Zuo Lingfeng is arrogant, he is indeed a genius. Fengzhou Demon Slaying Division actually has a plan similar to his. The Zhong family's plan to recruit geniuses seems to be very successful."

"People like this should die!"

The thin man said unhappily, "What genius? He's just scum when he dies!"

"He is a genius, how can his strength be weak? Take Gu Zheng for example, he is very strong." Dugu Feixue said calmly, "Many people wanted to kill him, but they died instead, like the Mo family..."

"Flying snow!"

Xiao Dutian's face changed, and he interrupted with a shout, "Brother Gu, that was self-defense, not..."

"Nothing. Let her continue."

A deep voice came from behind them. A tall man with blood all over his body and muscular body spoke as he walked, "Dugu Feixue, what happened to the two brothers from my Mo family who went to Fengzhou?"

"Nothing, nothing." Xiao Dutian held Dugu Feixue and said apologetically, "We have something else to do, so we'll leave first..."

swoosh~
The afterimage flashed.

In the mountain wind, the tall man crossed a distance of 100 meters and stood in front of Xiao Dutian. His voice was calm, but his eyes were indifferent and suppressed. He said, "If you don't explain clearly, you can't go anywhere."

"Mojia Teng!"

Hearing this, Xiao Dutian was no longer polite and shouted coldly, "Why, we want to leave, are you going to take action?"

"You can try."

Mo Jiateng had a blank expression on his face. He ignored Xiao Dutian, looked at Dugu Feixue, and said indifferently, "Dugu Feixue, if you also want to try..."

"They're dead."

Dugu Feixue shook off Xiao Dutian's hand and said calmly, "Mo Jiaxin and Mo Jiali are both dead."

"That's enough, that's enough." Xiao Dutian grabbed Dugu Feixue again, "Let's go..."

hum~
The air trembled, and a fist suddenly burst out, breaking through the airflow and attacking Xiao Dutian.

Bang!
Xiao Dutian resisted hastily, his arms collided, and a ball of energy exploded in front of him, sending out shock waves that wreaked havoc on the spot. At the same time, Xiao Dutian was pushed back, and he retreated uncontrollably for more than ten meters in one breath, leaving a series of deep footprints on the ground and shooting out a large amount of dirt and gravel before he could barely stop.

"Xiao Dutian, you'd better shut up!"

Mo Jiateng glanced at Xiao Dutian coldly, then shifted his gaze and continued to look at Dugu Feixue.

"Mo Jiaxin and Mo Jiali are both dead. Who killed them?"

"Is that the Gu Zheng you just mentioned?!"

……

……

Toyosu.

The Demon Slaying Division headquarters.

Night falls.

Gu Zheng cleaned up the house in advance, boiled a pot of tea, found three cups, washed them and put them aside, opened the doors and windows, enjoyed the night breeze, and waited for someone to come.

About a quarter of an hour later.

Meng Taiqi arrived first, wearing casual clothes, stroking his round chin, and laughed as soon as he entered the yard, "Ping An has been waiting for a long time, haha."

"Hello, General Meng. I just got back too." Gu Zheng smiled and saluted, inviting the old man into the house.

Just sat down...

"Huh? What?"
