The chivalrous spirit is fickle

Everyone was horrified and didn't dare to look at the man anymore. They all lowered their heads, like weak beasts encountering the king of beasts. The only option they had was to run away or submit.

After a while, the boat came close to the shore. The man jumped lightly and landed on one leg on the dock. The tattered boat immediately sank to the bottom of the water, and the blood shadow supporting the hull attached to the man.

The murderous aura condensed and turned into transparent blood-colored limbs, and even filled the man's empty left eye, turning into a transparent blood-colored left eye.

The man had a long sword on his waist, which looked like a Miao Dao. He ignored everyone on the dock and walked past. Wherever he passed, the people would panic and make way for him.

It wasn't until the man disappeared at the dock that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Who was that person just now? Such a terrifying murderous aura!"

Some people are still frightened, thinking back to that man's terrifying murderous aura, and gasping for air. That feeling of wanting to devour anyone, all the undisguised brutality and chaos, seemed as if this murderous aura could drive people crazy at any time.

"One leg, one hand, one eye... This person should be the killer Ye Xing who appeared out of nowhere in the past five years."

"It is said that this person worships Zhu Tian Jie Sha extremely. After Zhu Tian Jie Sha was killed, he vowed to become the new Zhu Tian Jie Sha, and then kill Zhu Tian Jie Sheng to avenge Zhu Tian Jie Sha."

"Becoming the new Heavenly Tribulation? The energy of Heavenly Tribulation is murderous and evil, and the inheritance is cut off... Could it be that he..."

"Yes, it is said that this person has figured out a set of skills to drive the murderous aura. He is a gifted and brilliant person. It's a pity that he chose to learn the Heaven Tribulation Killing Technique."

Someone's face turned pale, recalling the cold murderous aura from before, he swallowed and said in a trembling voice.

"Zhu Tian Jie Sha must be more powerful than this man. I finally understand why everyone in the martial arts world wants to kill Zhu Tian Jie Sha. This kind of thing is definitely a disaster."

Some people couldn't help but think about it and murmured in a low voice.

"The murderous aura of Ye Xing is so terrifying. When the real Heavenly Tribulation Killing appears, how terrifying will that murderous aura be?"

Just as everyone was talking about Ye Xing's departure, a small boat quietly approached the shore without attracting anyone's attention.

Shi Gu jumped off the boat and took off his human skin mask, revealing his true face. He stretched lazily, yawned, and then smiled at Shen Yue and the other person who got off the boat with him.

"You know, Xuanmingsi has a branch in Huiyin City. The fried dog meat they make is really special."

Shen Yue and Su Xue were still dressed as men, but they had different expressions when they heard the words, and they looked at Shi Gu with suspicion.

"Master, why are you so generous today?"

"Oh, no, where's the money I have on me?"

Shen Yue and Su Xue's voices suddenly became panicked, and they began to rummage through their purses, while Shi Gu weighed the two purses, turned around and walked away slowly.

Chapter 31 Xuanming Sect

The Xuanming Division is a sect with considerable weight in the martial arts world, capable of competing with the Yulin League. However, unlike the usually overbearing Yulin League, the Xuanming Division only does one thing in the martial arts world.

make money.

The Demon Cult monopolizes the hot pot restaurant business, the Yulin League is supported by the aristocratic families, and the Xuanming Division monopolizes all the dog meat restaurants in the world.

I don’t know if it was because he was bitten by a dog in his previous life, but the ancestor of Xuanmingsi was full of malice towards dogs. He studied dog meat in detail, including frying, stir-frying, and deep-frying. He also came up with a unique secret recipe to expand and strengthen the dog meat business.

It is even said that the Great Sun Heavenly Art of the Xuanming Division was created by the founder of the Xuanming Division in order to control the temperature when cooking dog meat.

I don’t know who owes whom, but the dogs in this world have ended up with a sect like Xuanmingsi.

Shi Gu brought Shen Yue and the other two to the dog meat shop opened by Xuan Ming Si in Huiyin City. The shop was full. Shi Gu and the other two waited for a long time before they got a table.

"Waiter, give me a portion of fried dog meat."

Shi Gu ordered the dishes with ease. The waiter responded loudly and added three bowls of hot soup for Shi Gu and the other two.

Xuanmingsi is very wealthy, and all the tables and chairs in the store are made of pear wood. Although it is a dog meat business, the store is decorated with dragon carvings and wind patterns, with a style that mixes the styles of literati and rough men.

Ironically, on the walls of the store there are many paintings of loyal dogs protecting their masters, with texts attached, telling the specific stories.

Those short stories were well-written and touching, and moved the customers in the store to tears while they ate dog meat with big mouthfuls.

And in the store, there was a storyteller, shouting with all his might.

After Shi Gu and the other two ordered the dog meat cooked in boiling oil, several people came to the table with a wok of oil and hung a cleaned dog meat on an iron hook. When the oil in the wok was heated, someone used a spoon to pour spoonfuls of oil on the dog meat.

The oil was boiling hot. After a few spoonfuls of oil were poured in, the skin of the dog meat was gradually burned into a golden color. Every time a spoonful of oil was poured in, someone would hold a clean brush, dip it in the sauce made with an exclusive secret recipe, and brush a line on the place where the boiling oil flowed.

The movements of several people were neither hurried nor slow, and they were coordinated seamlessly. After a while, a rich fragrance wafted over, making people's appetites whet.

Shen Yue swallowed her saliva, looking at the dog meat that was gradually turned golden by the boiling oil, and asked a question from time to time.

"Can I eat it?"

"Sir, please wait a moment. Cooking dog meat in boiling oil requires a lot of delicate work. If it's not cooked well enough, the taste will be very bad."

Shi Gu picked up the broth in front of him and took a sip. It had a rich aroma, but he frowned.

Isn't this beef bone soup? Is Xuanmingsi now also using beef bones to make dog meat soup? These people in the underworld are really a bunch of profiteers.

Shi Gu originally wanted to question loudly, but thinking that this was Xuanmingsi's territory, he gave up the idea and instead asked casually to the people who were pouring boiling oil on the meat.

"Everyone, we just arrived at Huiyin City today. Can you tell us what Huiyin City looks like now?"

A middle-aged man smiled and said.

"You guests must have come here for the Martial Arts Convention. That's something to be said."

"This martial arts conference was originally held by Zongming Mansion. This is nothing, but the prizes are incredible. They are Dragon Rock and Phoenix Branch."

The middle-aged man was shocked. He still couldn't understand how the Zong Ming Mansion could have such a treasure and why they were willing to give it out as a prize.

"Dragon Rock and Phoenix Branch. Even a ninth-grade martial arts expert would be tempted by such treasures. After all, who wouldn't want to transform into a dragon and a phoenix?"

"If it were normal times, those ninth-rank masters would naturally block the news and take action first, especially those first-rate sects in the martial arts world."

"But unfortunately, Zong Mingfu has told the world about this news, and there is no chance to block it. Many forces are eyeing Longyanshi and Fengzhi, but it is difficult to take action."

"After all, once they take action, it will be a life-and-death struggle. The big sects don't want to take this risk, so they came up with a compromise."

"The ownership of the Dragon Rock and Phoenix Branch will be decided by the winner of the Martial Arts Convention. The disciple who wins first place will be able to take these two treasures."

Shi Gu was a little surprised and asked.

"Disciple? Are you saying that the elders and the master of the sect don't plan to participate in the competition?"

The middle-aged man chuckled and said with a mocking look.

"Those people are too proud. How could they lower themselves to fight to the death in the ring? Besides, the original intention of their agreeing to this method was to avoid letting the ninth-grade martial artist take action."

"Otherwise, this Huiyin City will be destroyed by those people. When that happens, all the gods will be killed and no one will survive."

A spoonful of hot oil was poured on the dog meat, and the dog meat made a crispy sound, with golden fat dripping slowly.

"Master, can I eat now?" Shen Yue asked.

Shi Gu waved his hand and continued chatting with the middle-aged man.

"It sounds like those sects should have experienced the goods."

The middle-aged man immediately gave Shi Gu a thumbs up and praised him.

"You're not bad, little brother. You can even think of this."

"Those sects will naturally inspect the goods. Otherwise, after fighting for a long time, they will find that Zong Mingfu used fake goods to fool people. Who can swallow this anger?"

The middle-aged man smirked, lowered his voice, and winked at Shigu.

"Little brother, you would never have thought that this is not as simple as just inspecting the goods. In order to prevent any accidents, the five major sects directly took over this martial arts conference."

"The relationship between Zongming Mansion and this martial arts conference is not as important as that between the five major sects and dogs. From top to bottom, all aspects are handled by the five major sects."

"Master, can we eat now?" Shen Yue asked again.

However, Shi Gu was so engrossed in chatting with the middle-aged man that he paid no attention to Shen Yue.

As if he was afraid that Shi Gu didn't know what the five major sects were, the middle-aged man explained enthusiastically.

"These five major sects are the Demon Sect, the Mysterious Sect, the Yulin League, the East Sea Sword Sect, and the Medicine King Valley."

"Each of these five major sects will send out an elder of the ninth rank martial realm to guard the Dragon Rock and Phoenix Branch with the elders of the other four sects, and make an agreement."

"During the Martial Arts Convention, the five major sects are not allowed to use force, including all the people in this city. All their past grudges and hatreds are not allowed to be settled during the convention."

"Master, do you want to eat or not?" Shen Yue slammed the table and said angrily, but was ignored by Shi Gu and the other man again.

Shi Gu showed a look of joy and asked the middle-aged man hurriedly.

"Are you serious? Have the five major sects really decided on this?"

The middle-aged man said with a smile on his face as he poured oil on the dog meat.

"Of course, if these five major sects don't want to have a bad reputation for not keeping their word, they have to follow the rules during this martial arts convention."

"If they don't keep their word, who in the martial arts world will obey them in the future?"

The joy on Shigu's face became even stronger, and he continued to ask.

"Even if you have defeated the disciples of the five major sects?"

The middle-aged man nodded affirmatively.

"Even if they have defeated disciples from the five major sects."

Release the bones and ask again.

"Even if he flirted with the daughter-in-law of a high-ranking official from one of the five major sects?"

"Even if it's... huh?"

The middle-aged man's eyes twitched slightly, but after thinking about it, he nodded and said.

"No problem. The five major sects can still distinguish the priorities. But there is something wrong with you, brother."

"Do you want to eat this meat? Just say something." Shen Yue's voice was ignored again, and Shi Gu asked the middle-aged man again shyly.

"Even if they killed the disciples of the five major sects?"

The middle-aged man's mouth twitched, but he still nodded and said affirmatively.

"Even if he has killed disciples from the five major sects."

"Even if it's a pornographic picture of a certain clan leader's concubine?"

"Even if... huh? Little brother, haven't you done too much harm?"

The middle-aged man had a strange look on his face as he looked at Shi Gu carefully, fearing that he would ask similar questions again. After all, the questions this boy asked were becoming more and more dangerous and tricky.

Shi Gu smiled a little embarrassedly. He had many similar questions, and each one was more dangerous than the last.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

At this moment, Shen Yue angrily slammed the table with both hands, looked at Shi Gu and the middle-aged man, and spoke word by word.

"I! Want! Meat!"

This time, the middle-aged man and Shi Gu could no longer ignore it, and the topic came to an abrupt end. The middle-aged man did his job, flipped his hand, and took out a knife.

The knife was short and looked more like a dagger, but wider than a dagger.

The middle-aged man held a short knife in his hand and quickly cut the dog meat several times. The skin and flesh that was covered with boiling oil was quickly cut into several cubes under the short knife. His movements were quick and neat, without any sense of dragging.

Shen Yue only felt a flash before her eyes, and there were several more pieces of meat on the plate in front of her, neatly arranged together. Shen Yue's eyes lit up, and she picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth.

Seeing this, Shi Gu couldn't help but chuckle and asked Shen Yue.

"How is it? Does the meat smell good?"

Shen Yue's mouth was stuffed full of dog meat, her eyes narrowed into slits, and she nodded vigorously.

"Ok!"

Su Xue on the side watched more. She looked at the middle-aged man in surprise, feeling a little frustrated.

She thought she couldn't do such a neat and clean knife skill, but Xuan Mingsi, a meat-cutting master, could do it easily. She was indeed a frog in the well.

After the middle-aged man cut the meat, he said to Shi Gu and the other two with a smile on his face.

"My three guests, please enjoy your meal. If you have any other instructions, just call us. We will be there at your beck and call."

After saying that, the middle-aged man and the other man withdrew and stopped disturbing the three people.

Shi Gu picked up a piece of fried dog meat and put it into his mouth. He chewed it for a while, and then a fragrance and oil burst out in his mouth, filling his entire mouth.

Yes, that’s the taste.

Shi Gu narrowed his eyes in satisfaction, turned his head and looked at Shen Yue and Su Xue, only to see Shen Yue eating heartily. But Su Xue did not move her chopsticks, her brows were furrowed, and I don't know what she was thinking about.

Su Xue could hide it from others, but not from Shi Gu. Shi Gu knew what she was thinking. He reached out and gently tapped Su Xue's little head, saying with a smile.
