Chapter 437 – Threat! (1/2)

Han Hua and the others had gone to Heaven’s Boundary to cultivate.

Luo Tian currently had nothing to do.

But…

After last night’s crazy training of skills, his profound energy was pretty much all gone. Even his medicinal pills and xuan stones were nearing empty.

After entering an immortal sect, one would usually count on their immortal force to fight.

But profound energy was the fuel for activating Luo Tian’s skills, so he couldn’t do without it.

Entering the Merit Hall.

There were many people pointing at him but they didn’t dare to be loud or attract Luo Tian’s attention.

“It was him that killed the Martial Hall’s Elder Xiao, and he took advantage of one’s perilous state to do it. What a despicable person.”

“Such a sinister deed.”

“This is basically Mount Hua Immortal Sect’s biggest disgrace.”

“I really don’t understand why Grand Elder is protecting him. A person like him should be killed by a palm strike already. Leaving him around Mount Hua Immortal Sect is like leaving a walking disaster in our midst.”

“What I don’t understand is why the twin flowers Yun Ling and Yun Yi are attracted to such a despicable person. It would be great if they fancied me instead.”

The voices were soft…

But Luo Tian could hear them clearly.

He was too lazy to bother with them though.

Xu Shan coincidentally came to the entrance of the Merit Hall. He saw Luo Tian and immediately told him: “Follow me.”

“Huh?”

Luo Tian was a bit startled.

The crowd all looked at him with different gazes.

He followed Xu Shan to a side room.

Xu Shan looked around with caution before closing the door. He then asked Luo Tian: “What happened last night at Solitary Peak? How come I couldn’t even get close to it? Kid, what on earth were you doing inside there?”

Last night, Xu Shan was originally planning to look for Luo Tian and ask him what happened at Dark Abyss Valley.

He wanted to know why the Grand Elder who had always wanted to kick Luo Tian off the mountain would suddenly stand by his side. He really wanted to know why.

Luo Tian pretended like he didn’t know a thing and replied: “What happened? I don’t know. When I got back last night, I went straight to bed and slept until the morning. I have no clue what you’re talking about.”

“Eh?”

“Now that’s strange. Last night, I was clearly forced out of Solitary Peak by a powerful energy and couldn’t take a single step forward. I thought that Grand Elder had decided to seal up Solitary Peak. But now that I think about it, Grand Elder doesn’t have such powerful strength.” Xu Shan said under contemplation.

Luo Tian didn’t want to tell Xu Shan that the Prime Elder came looking for him.

There were some matters he didn’t want others to know about.

Luo Tian laughed once before saying: “Old Xu, it looks like you’ve been too tense lately. How about this: I will give you something good as a supplement, hahaha…”

While saying this…

Luo Tian took out two pure inner cores from his spatial ring and said: “For the Grand Elder to stand by my side is exactly because of these things.”

“Inner cores?!”

Xu Shan’s eyes started seeing stars. He then said to Luo Tian with incomparable shock: “You kid… you are really not ordinary. No wonder Elder Wu Nian would take out Mount Hua’s Divine Token to have to stay. It looks like he knows you very well. In just half a month, you were able to rise up to Profound Ancestor 5th rank from the 2nd rank. Even if the old ancestor was still alive, he wouldn’t be able to accomplish this. Kid, you are really quite extraordinary. Those of the outer sect are mocking you as a piece of trash with a crippled dantian, but when compared to you, they are even less than trash.”

Right after…

Xu Shan wasn’t polite and directly took the two inner cores. He chuckled and said: “It would be fake of me if I said I didn’t want it. I won’t be polite and accept it!”

Luo Tian laughed faintly before saying: “Low-key, low-key. Old Xu, you should stay low-key about it. The reason I came to the Merit Hall is that I hope you can help me find a mission with a high merit reward. It would be best if it were some sort of dangerous mountain range with demonic beasts to kill and spiritual herbs to pick.”
