"Junior Sister Meng, Senior Brother Zhu Hu is talking nonsense."
Of course Xu Sheng immediately said: "I don't want to challenge you. I am not your opponent, hahahaha. Well, I have something else to do. My master called me back to the peak for dinner. I will leave first. Goodbye."
After saying that, Xu Sheng turned around and flew away without waiting for others to react.
Xu Sheng was still worried that the Supreme Master would force him to stay.
Fortunately, the Supreme Master did not take any action.
After all, a forced melon is not sweet.
If Xu Sheng really has the ability but is unwilling to make a move, it may be that he does not like his daughter.
Of course, he couldn't force her to marry.
After all, his real wish is to see his daughter happy.
Originally Xu Sheng thought that the matter was over.
However, what I didn’t expect was that Meng Yuyao actually chased after me.
"Hey, Xu, come and fight me!"
She said directly.
"Junior Sister Meng, I'm really no match for you!"
Xu Sheng said helplessly.
"Are you a real man?"
Meng Yuyao said, "You are so hesitant! Just because you beat me doesn't mean you can be my man! With your lonely and timid personality, I don't even like you! Humph, don't you know what your reputation is in the sect?"
"What reputation?"
Xu Sheng asked.
"Coward, life-thirsty ghost!"
Meng Yuyao said.
"Well."
Xu Sheng was speechless and said, "Who gave me this nickname?"
However, Xu Sheng immediately understood that this must be because he had only gone out to participate in a secret treasure hunt once in many years.
I have never left the sect at other times!
In the sect, most of them stay in Hongling Peak!
During that secret realm training, he mostly acted together with the other disciples.
It didn't show much extraordinaryness.
Only Zhu Hu, Li Yu and others knew how powerful Xu Sheng was.
Obviously, both of them kept Xu Sheng's secret.
Therefore, Xu Sheng got this nickname.
But Xu Sheng naturally didn't care about it.
"Sorry, I need to practice, Junior Sister Meng."
Then Xu Sheng said directly: "I'm sorry, I can't entertain you! Please go back!"
After saying that, he rushed back to the practice room.
However, Meng Yuyao forced her way into Xu Sheng's training room.
"Don't fight me."
She said domineeringly: "Don't even think about practicing!"
Xu Sheng was speechless.
"Watch this!"
Meng Yuyao even took direct action.
Xu Sheng had no choice but to accept the move.
Of course, he did not display his true strength.
Soon pretended to be defeated.
"I've already said I'm no match for you, now that's ok, right?"
Xu Sheng said aggrievedly: "Just because you are strong, you can bully others? Ah? You are so great because you are strong, do you have the guts to compete with my master Mu Hongling? What kind of ability is it to bully a weak senior brother like me?"
As Xu Sheng said this, he felt so aggrieved that he almost cried.
At this time, Mu Hongling, with red hair and a graceful figure, really came.
"Master! She bullied me!" Xu Sheng pounced towards Mu Hongling.
"Get out!" Of course, Mu Hongling kicked him away.
Meng Yuyao naturally didn't dare to fight with Mu Hongling.
Left quickly.
"What's wrong with you really fighting with her, kid?"
Watching Meng Yuyao leave, Mu Hongling said, "What a beautiful girl! If you defeat her, maybe she will marry you. Then you will rise quickly in this sect. Aren't you tired of pretending for so many years? It's no wonder that the people in the sect nicknamed you a coward and a life-thirsty ghost."
"Forget it. I won't mess with this girl. I'm not interested in this kind of little girl."
Xu Sheng smiled and said, "Others can say whatever they want. I think this nickname is correct. I am indeed a coward and a life-thirsty person! I think there is nothing more important than my life in this world!"
"Okay. Then I'll call you a life-loving ghost from now on. Look at how shameless you are."
Mu Hongling said, "I say, you are not interested in such a pretty girl? Then what kind of girl do you like?"
"actually."
Xu Sheng nodded and said, "Compared to this kind of young girl who is about to blossom, I prefer more mature women."
Mu Hongling was stunned and her pretty face turned red.
"you."
She said coldly: "We agreed on this before!"
"rest assured."
Xu Sheng also said: "Everything is for cultivation. Master, I don't have any."
"Sure?"
Mu Hongling half-believed and half-doubted: "Really?"
"Sure."
Xu Sheng nodded and said, "You are my master. I am so bold that I dare to like you. It is impossible. Absolutely not possible."
"Well, that's good." Mu Hongling didn't know whether she was happy or not. She just nodded calmly and went back to practicing.
Apparently she had heard Xu Sheng being beaten before.
I came here to check out the situation because I thought something had happened.
Xu Sheng also felt a little warm in his heart.
Xu Sheng thought that the matter of Meng Yuyao was over.
But what Xu Sheng didn't expect was that a few days later Meng Yuyao came to see Xu Sheng again.
He also brought him some medicine to treat his injuries, saying it was to express his apology for beating Xu Sheng last time.
After all, the other disciples took the initiative to fight with her, but she forced Xu Sheng to fight.
"Coward, what are you standing there for? Take it!" Meng Yuyao said, holding the sword.
"No need for that." Xu Sheng refused.
"Just take it if you give it to me!"
Meng Yuyao glared and said, "I don't like owing people!"
"Okay. Thank you."
In order to avoid being pestered by her, Xu Sheng simply accepted it and said, "Well, Junior Sister Meng, I will be in seclusion to practice. Don't come to see me. I won't be available to see you if you come."
"What do you mean?"
Meng Yuyao asked, "Why do I want to see you?"
After saying.
Without waiting for Xu Sheng to say anything, she raised her snow-white chin, turned around and flew away.
Xu Sheng just smiled.
At this point, Xu Sheng thought the matter was really over.
However, what was unexpected was that a few months later, Xu Sheng was invited to a banquet.
It was an invitation from Fourth Senior Sister.
The reason was that the fourth senior sister's mother gave birth to another child.
Wanxianmen is too big.
The entire Xianmen is actually a big society.
Xu Sheng can directly refuse general invitations.
But after all, Fourth Senior Sister is also a true disciple of Hongling Peak, so their relationship is relatively close.
So Xu Sheng had to go and participate.
Of course Mu Hongling didn't go.
After all, with her status, there is no need for her to attend every small wedding banquet.
It is possible that going there might make people feel restrained.
Xu Sheng originally just wanted to take a walk and come back.
But what he didn't expect was that he saw Meng Yuyao at the banquet.
Of course Xu Sheng knew that Meng Yuyao had been in contact with the fourth senior sister over the years.
So it’s not surprising that Meng Yuyao also came at this time.
Xu Sheng said nothing.
Meng Yuyao didn't say anything either.
But then something unexpected happened at the banquet.
An old man with a white beard showed up at the banquet at some point and immediately started to kill another young man who was attending the banquet.
With a "swish" sound, the sword pierced the young man directly.
"My daughter went traveling with you, but you came back and my daughter didn't! It must be you who killed my daughter. It was you!" The old man had white hair and a haggard expression on his face.
"I didn't, that was intentional..." the young man defended.
"Boom boom boom!" But the old man didn't listen to the explanation at all. He used his other hand to perform a palm print and attacked the young man madly, directly blowing him up.
"Die, everyone, die!!!" Then the old man became even more crazy.
He directly used his sword energy to indiscriminately attack other disciples at the banquet.
Xu Sheng was also surprised.
At this moment, he remembered that he seemed to have seen this white-bearded old man before.
He is also a disciple of Wanxian Sect and he has barely cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage.
But he is now very old.
Probably dying soon.
Xu Sheng didn't know the old man's name.
But he roughly guessed what had happened in an instant.
It is estimated that the old man's only daughter went out traveling with the young male disciple and died.
The old man suspected that the murderer was this young man.
But there is no evidence.
The sect’s criminal law hall naturally came to an end.
But the old man himself was unwilling to give up.
He even felt that he didn't have much time to live because he was too old.
Therefore, now people are killed directly in the sect!
“Disgraceful!!!”
The old man's sword energy roared and killed in all directions.
"not good!"
The guests at the banquet hall hurriedly resisted.
Some of those with a little strength can even protect themselves.
But some of the participants were not even at the Jindan stage.
In an instant, several innocent people died under the old man's sword.
"Stop!" Fourth Senior Sister and others also rushed to take action at this time, using their skills to resist the old man's sword light and protect those who are relatively weaker.
Fourth Senior Sister is also a master in the Nascent Soul Realm, so she can withstand the old man’s attack.
“Go!”
Meng Yuyao had also taken action at this time.
She waved her hand and sword shadows appeared.
Saved a lot of people.
After she finished shouting at the flustered guests, she scolded the old man, "You killed people in the sect without permission, don't you want to die?"
"You, the headmaster's daughter!!"
However, what was unexpected was that at this time, the old man looked at Meng Yuyao with red eyes and roared: "Master, you are immoral and protect the person who killed my daughter! I will kill you, kill you!!!"
boom!
As he spoke, the old man did not attack anyone else, but instead rushed towards Meng Yuyao, and some light purple flames were burning on the old man's body.
I don’t know what secret method he used to make his strength even stronger!
He leaped to the high level of Nascent Soul Realm.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
He directly used his ultimate move, killing Meng Yuyao and blowing her away.
After all, Meng Yuyao is only at the peak of the Golden Core Realm.
Although the skills she practiced were also extraordinary.
The combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary peak Jindan realm.
可根本顶不住拼命爆发的这老者。
此时四师姐以及其父母等等人都在其他各个方位护卫其他的弱小人员。
大家都没料到老者会她对孟玉瑶发狂。
故而根本赶不及救援孟玉瑶。
而孟玉瑶好巧不巧地摔倒在了许升的身旁。
许升刚才自然也出手挡下了一些这老者胡乱杀伐的剑气，救了一些在自己身边的弱小的宴会宾客。
但那种程度的出手并不会暴露许升真实的修为。
只不过如今由于孟玉瑶倒在了许升的身旁，使得那疯狂了的老者直接杀向许升这边了。
许升皱了皱眉。
他原本是不想暴露自己的真实实力的。
但现在如果他转身就走，可能孟玉瑶直接就要挂了。
因此无论如何这个时候许升肯定是要出手的了。
他不可能坐看孟玉瑶身死。
毕竟穆红菱是知道他的真实实力的。
见死不救太说不过去了。
“你愣着干什么，快走！”
当然正在许升心中无奈的时候，没想到孟玉瑶居然还推了许升一把。
毕竟之前许升被孟玉瑶揍过。
在孟玉瑶的心里许升是比她弱的。
不过这个时候孟玉瑶自然是完全推不动许升。
她只感觉感觉自己的手好像推到了一座山上。
纹丝不动。
“退！”
而许升更又直接手臂一转摆开孟玉瑶的手臂的抓的同时，手一把抓在孟玉瑶的手臂上将她整个人往身后一甩。
与此同时许升上前一步正面与红着眼睛杀过来的癫狂老者相对。
“轰隆！”
随着一声巨大的炸响。
两人身形相碰之处能量炸裂。
各种桌椅以及肉果酒水等等都直接破碎！
各种碎块乱飞！
在这其中那癫狂老者的身形猛然爆退飞了出去。
嘴喷鲜血。
坠落地面。
而许升则是一身白衣一尘不染，仍旧站在原地。
“什么？这怎么可能？”
“许师弟怎么这么强？”
“许师兄刚才这是正面击飞了元婴期强者？”
“这不只是普通元婴了，刚才其都是拼命状态了！”
“这么说，许师弟其实也已经元婴了？”
“就一击！”
“刚才这人的剑气有多强，我们可是领教了的！刚才那拼命的一击，肯定比那些剑气强很多！”
“嘶，恐怖啊恐怖！”
“不是说许师兄是胆小鬼、惜命鬼吗？一直窝在门派里修炼，从来不去寻找其他额外的资源来修炼吗？”
“为何他单纯靠门派分配给的一些基础资源，就在这样的年岁里就修炼到了这种程度？”
见到现场的变化。
在场的所有的弟子们一个个不由难以置信地议论纷纷。
“我知道你肯定隐藏了实力。”
四师姐也震撼地看着许升道：“但没想到许师弟你瞒了这么多！”
“什么？许师兄已经元婴了？”
孙元霸自然也在场，他呆滞道：“我们的差距居然这么大了？”
“果然！”朱虎道：“我就说吧，许师弟才是最强的天才！”
而此时许升还没来得及回答众人。
“何人在门派内厮杀！”
一群负责维持门派秩序的刑法堂的强者已经飞了进来。
他们询问了一番在场的众人。
之后自然也去擒拿之前癫狂的老者。
可那老者之前施展秘法加上被许升重击，如今已经直接咽了气了。
许升了解了一下。
发现这癫狂老者跟青年男子的事情跟他之前猜测的差不多。
“我们也查了，可的确没有证据！”
一个刑法堂的执事老者叹息道：“自然不能乱判！可之前他也表示接受了调查结果，没想到现在他会突然如此！”
最终众人对这件事情也只能唏嘘一番。
接着宴会自然也就散了。
四师姐不太开心。
毕竟宴会出了这样的事情，怎么开心得起来？
幸好伤亡不多。
但之前还是死了几个无辜的人。
“还是多谢你，师弟。”
四师姐对许升道：“若不是你出手，可能今天后果更加严重且是我承受不了的！你隐藏自身修为这么多年，如今却让你彻底曝光了。惭愧。”
“师姐别这样说。”
许升道：“刚才那种情况下，岂有见死不救之理！”
再接着。
许升不准备多留。
就想要离开了。
“许师兄！”
“许师弟！”
“你厉害呀，原来真正的天才是你！你藏得也太深了吧？”
但即将离开的一些门派的弟子们对许升客气说着。
许升也只能一一微笑以对。
倒是孟玉瑶没跟许升说什么话。
直到许升飞回红菱峰。
她才跟在后面飞来。
“嗯？”许升转身看向孟玉瑶。
“你这个骗子！”
孟玉瑶则对许升道：“之前居然还给我演了一出挨打的戏！哼。”
许升无奈一笑。
“当然无论如何，要感谢你刚才救了我。”
孟玉瑶又道：“谢谢。”
“不客气。”
许升道：“另外……”
“你不会以为我要让你娶我吧？切。”
但孟玉瑶已经打断了许升说道：“我当初说谁能打败我什么的……只是我应对父亲的一个借口而已。你可别想得那么美，你虽然修为不错，可你长相、性格什么的，完全不是我的菜好不好！天天窝在修炼室里修炼，跟个木头一样。又胆小又闷。”
“啊？”
许升一愣道：“哦，是吗，那就好。”
他本来的确是想要拒绝一番。
但孟玉瑶先这样说，许升倒松了一口气。
孟玉瑶又哼了一声就走了。
总之，就因为四师姐宴会的事情。
许升的真实修为曝光了。
这让许升在门派里的名声涨了不少。
幸好之后并没有产生什么坏的影响。
反而只是门派更看重许升而已。
当然还有一个变化是孟玉瑶时不时会跑来红菱峰找许升切磋。
就这么时间又过去了一百年。
这天。
孟玉瑶又来找许升切磋。
毕竟她说同年龄段的就两人修为相仿。虽然说许升比她强蛮多的。但其他人的确比她更弱。
对此许升也没有拒绝。
毕竟百年来他基本大部分时间都在修炼。
一闭关就是几十年。
跟孟玉瑶能见面的时间也没有那么多。
偶尔互相切磋、交流一下修行也没什么大不了的。
且孟玉瑶还说过对许升完全没感觉的。
因此许升也就当成了一个普通的朋友来相处。
孟玉瑶此女对修行的悟性的确不低。
跟她互相交流修行心得让许升也得到了一些进步。
穆红菱毕竟修为与许升相差太多了。
一些许升这种境界的修行上的细节的东西，穆红菱已经记忆没那么深刻了。
没法给许升非常细致地指导。
总之也就是这样了。
许升并没有多想。
孟玉瑶也好像并没有什么。
的确就是把许升当成了普通的朋友。
不过令许升惊讶的是孟玉瑶的行为却让穆红菱出现了一些不同的反应。
这天送走孟玉瑶后。
“师尊，我们继续炼制紫灵晶吧。”
许升去找穆红菱道：“又到时间了吧？”
“没空。”
穆红菱却看都不看许升一眼道：“我炼丹药呢。”
她一副在认真炼制丹药的模样。
“嗯？”许升疑惑。
以往穆红菱可不曾因为炼制丹药而停下炼化紫灵晶的事情。
“师尊，您怎么了？”
许升不由问道：“您今天怎么怪怪的？”
这，不是吃醋了吧？
许升看着穆红菱很想这么问一句，但又不敢。
当然许升随即主动将自己跟孟玉瑶只是普通朋友的事情说了出来。
“噢。”
穆红菱面无表情地听后只是又问道：“你跟我说这些干什么？”
“没什么。”
许升道：“我就是说说。”
“你不喜欢人家，不一定人家不喜欢你啊。”
穆红菱却道：“不然经常来找你？”
“不能吧？她说我不是她的菜啊。”
许升道：“那要不我以后不跟她来往了？”
“什么意思？”
穆红菱道：“好好的干嘛不来往？我又不会阻止你做什么，毕竟你总是要找道侣的。”
“至少我现在还没想。”
许升道：“完全没有。”
“别废话了。”
穆红菱不耐烦道：“我炼丹呢，你在我旁边说一些无聊的话干嘛，烦死了。”
“师尊，我帮您！”许升也不敢妄自揣测穆红菱的心思，毕竟若是惹怒了她，停下了紫灵晶的事情，可是一件大损失，因此此时许升只是上前帮助穆红菱炼制丹药。
其实也帮不上什么大忙，就是搭把手递点东西什么的。
“那师尊，既然您忙。”
之后许升道：“那弟子就先告退了。”
“你等等。”
当然这时穆红菱却说道：“不是说要炼制紫灵晶吗？走什么？”
“什么？”
许升转头回来道：“您又不忙了？”
“我这不是忙完了吗？”
穆红菱道：“别废话，过来。”
“在这儿炼制紫灵晶吗？”
许升愕然道：“不太合适吧？”
“紫灵晶，服下！”
但穆红菱说着直接将许升推在了炼丹炉前的椅子上说道：“帮忙看火！”
“噢噢。”
许升点头，吞下紫灵晶粉末的同时道：“是。”
同时伸手将一些旁边特殊的柴火添到炉子里。
Mu Hongling flicked her red hair and began to use her energy to help Xu Sheng digest the purple spirit crystal.
In the blink of an eye, it was another five hundred years later.
Xu Sheng's cultivation level was promoted again, reaching the middle stage of Nascent Soul Realm.
Meng Yuyao still did not find another Taoist partner, and occasionally came to Hongling Peak to discuss with Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng once asked Meng Yuyao indirectly, but Meng Yuyao secretly expressed that she had no interest in Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng didn't think about it any more.
However, on this day, Meng Yuyao was almost knocked down by Xu Sheng during a sparring match.
Xu Sheng quickly reached out and pulled her.
Then Meng Yuyao left again.
But after seeing this, Mu Hongling seemed to have a strange temper again.
"Master, you."
After five hundred years, Xu Sheng finally couldn't help but ask, "Are you jealous?"
Mu Hongling was stunned by Xu Sheng's question, and her beautiful eyes turned to look at Xu Sheng.
